Chapter 158: Turning Stones into Gold
I did escape, but Da Fei was still trapped inside, and I calculated that it would be too late to climb back into the room now, so I simply jumped directly into the kitchen from the back window sill, thinking that if they really caught Da Fei, I could block them from the front!
Following them, I saw that the thief man took the lead and walked straight to the cowshed, and as soon as he took a step, the big yellow dog tied to the door of the cowshed "swished" and pounced on him.
The thief was frightened and "Mom" and crawled back, and the little fruit farmer suddenly laughed so hard that he couldn't stand up straight.
"Damn, why is your dog so good?"
The thief's face turned green with fright, and he turned over a few heels, and his face was very embarrassed, and the little fruit farmer walked over and touched the dog's head, and said with a smile:
"Brother Heizi, you were one of the people who ruined my orchard last year, my wolf dog is very vindictive, he may recognize you, I'm sorry!"
Hearing him say this, the thief man realized that he had been tricked, got up and patted the dust on his body, pointed at the little fruit farmer's nose and scolded:
"You little rabbit, deliberately playing with me, it's all from last year, why aren't you finished yet?"
The little fruit farmer smirked for a while, touched the dog's chain and said:
"Brother Heizi, you said that you are all masters who go to pan for gold every year, why are you still short of the 100 yuan of fruit money, we live in neighbors before and after, so we have to use the stolen ones?"
The thief's eyes were upside down, and he wanted to catch him angrily, Xiao Tang loosened the dog chain, and the yellow dog "Wang" pounced on it with grinning teeth, and the thief's frightened soul was lost, and he turned around and ran, throwing off a shoe and not daring to turn back to pick it up.
The man chased the dog one after the other, and it was not until the little fruit farmer whistled that the wolf dog stuck out his tongue and turned back happily.
It seems that this guy is a little estranged from the thief, and I am relieved that I am temporarily safe with Da Fei!
Seeing that he had leashed the dog, I quickly jumped out of the back window of the kitchen and climbed down the eaves back to the cowshed.
Da Fei saw me descending from the sky, and hurriedly came up and asked:
"Why did you come back so soon?"
I fell on the haystack and just lay down like this, letting out a long breath.
"Didn't you hear how lively it was outside the cowshed just now? Someone's coming! ”
Da Fei's eyes lit up, and he quickly dragged me up, and said in horror:
"Listen to that voice, it seems to be ....."
"It's the thief, he's here!" I picked up the conversation, and Da Fei frowned in fright.
"Oh, if it weren't for the dog at the door, the kid would have come in."
Da Fei looked out in a panic, I picked off the grass roots stuck to my head and threw them away, and sighed:
"It's okay now, that thief has a grudge against this little fruit farmer, and his shoes are lost!"
"Hatred? Is the fruit farmer boy reliable? ”
As soon as Da Fei's words fell, he heard the sound of the dog chain pulling at the door of the cowshed, and after a while, the door of the cowshed opened, and the fruit farmer named Xiao Tang walked in with two cooked sweet potatoes.
Da Fei and I pretended to be back to back as if nothing had happened, no one paid attention to him, he put down the sweet potato and looked at the two of us, and said:
"What's going on? Why do you two still know Kuroko? ”
The sunspot in his mouth is the thief, I know that they don't deal with each other, and I don't hide it, so I simply tell the truth:
"That's the man, he wants to coerce us to help him pan for gold!"
"Oh," the little farmer suddenly realized.
"No wonder he's angry, it turns out that you two asked me to cut off my beard, it should be!"
Da Fei also saw the doorway, and sold miserably:
"Little brother, our group of people came, but it turned out that your village is a real evil sect, first I met him who was blackmailed to work, and then I met you, and he was directly locked up, who are you in your village? It's because you want to go and you can't go, you see! Changed the pig kennel to live in the cowshed! ”
The little fruit farmer couldn't hold back a little when he heard this, and pursed his lips and said aggrievedly:
"It's clear that you two stole my fruit first, and also broke the fruit tree, which is different from the nature of Kuroko using you! He paid for the tickets! ”
I turned my head and asked:
"Little brother, what's the ticket money?"
The little fruit farmer sighed impatiently and said:
"You said, you two, why didn't you even understand this little bit when you came to our village to explore the wind and pan for gold? What a stupid thief! ”
Da Fei pretended to be stupid and laughed awkwardly.
"Oh, I heard that there is a river in your village, and there is gold in it, let's see if it's true or not, and think that the river is a product of nature, and it doesn't belong to anyone! Who would have thought that all the people in your village are human traffickers! ”
The small fruit farmer waved his hand and said:
"A product of nature? You think beautifully! This river was discovered by an old farmer surnamed Liu in our village, not because he discovered this river and became the village chief! ”
It turns out that this is the case, no wonder I haven't seen him for a few years, this Liu Xigui has changed from a down-and-out thin man to the head of a village with a big waist and a round waist, it turns out that this river is his lifeblood!
"Are the gold rush tickets expensive?"
"Expensive! Isn't it expensive! The little fruit farmer twitched his face when he talked about this stubble.
"It's 20,000 yuan!"
"Oh, who did the money go to?"
"Village chief, he found this river."
It turns out that Liu Xigui made his career like this, which is a bit interesting, and I asked again:
"Tickets are so expensive, so has anyone found gold?
The farmer took a deep breath, as if the question was not easy to answer.
"It's true that many people have found gold, but they haven't covered it with heat!"
This was said ambiguously, and when Da Fei heard Jinzi's eyes brighten, he asked urgently:
"What do you mean by that?"
"It's that the village chief said that the gold in the river is different from the one on the market, and he can't see the light, and he has to take it to him quickly to exchange it for money, so whoever finds gold will send it to the village chief! So you just die of this heart, even if you find gold, the village chief will not accept it! ”
Real gold is not afraid of fire, how can there be gold that is afraid of light? The more you talk about it, the weirder it gets.
"Hey, what if the gold from the river sees the light?"
"It's worthless when you see the light, our village is grounded, and this gold is definitely not allowed to be taken out."
I still have the heart to ask more, and the small fruit farmer pushed the sweet potato forward and said:
"Gold panning is the same as buying lottery tickets, it's all opportunistic, you two will die of this heart, wait for it to get dark and I'll inquire about the news of your people, and then I'll let you two go when I have the money and the money!" After saying a few more words, he turned around and went out.
The little fruit farmer said a lot, Da Fei didn't think much about it, picked up the sweet potato and nibbled on it, but I lost my appetite, and I found more and more that this Nanmen Village is really a little unusual. Especially Hu Badao's old acquaintance, the village chief Liu Xigui who discovered the Liujin River!
He made a taboo back then, and ended up so depressed, since he found a golden river here, it is an endless treasure, how can he be willing to share it with the villagers, just to be a village head?
Da Fei devoured a sweet potato in three or two bites, wiped his mouth, handed me the remaining one and said:
"Why don't you eat it?"
I pushed it to him:
"You eat, Mu Qin and your uncle are still in the cellar, if you don't save them, your life will be gone, I can't eat it!"
Da Fei peeled off the sweet potato skin, broke half of it and stuffed it into my hand.
"Didn't the little fruit farmer say, wait until it gets dark to inquire about the news, he pointed out that we lost money, and he will definitely try his best!"
I still didn't feel at ease, so I handed over the sweet potato to Da Fei, and said hurriedly:
"Get up, who knows if he can do something, I have to go out and follow quickly!"
Da Fei's mouth was full of sweet potatoes, and I squatted for a long time to let me step on my shoulder, and I drilled out again along the big hole in the cowshed.
Cautiously squatted under the window of the young man who was a fruit farmer, and it was not until it was dark that he went out unhurriedly.
I followed him from a distance, turning left and right, as if I was going to a long way.
Following him, he met a few villagers and neighbors who had come home from the fields, stopped to chat with them, but they were too far away to hear what they were talking about.
I hid behind the wall, waited for their conversation to end, and then looked in, and found that the little fruit farmer had long since disappeared!!
I secretly screamed badly, looked around to find a way to avoid the crowd, and suddenly saw a spacious mansion with glazed tiles not far away!!
The families in this village are all poor, if anyone can be so rich, it must be Hu Badao's old friend, the village chief Liu Xigui who sells tickets to the Liujin River!!
Anyway, the person has already been lost, I might as well be flexible and go to find out the details of this Liu Xigui, thinking about it, I jumped in by the edge of the wall in the night.
The gate of his house was as wide as a city gate, and the concrete wall was more than two meters high, but fortunately I had practiced kung fu and it was not a problem to climb and sneak in.
There are three houses in the courtyard, each of which is more than five meters long, and the windows on both sides are nailed and painted with pink paint.
Liu Xigui was sitting cross-legged, talking to someone.
It was already very dark, I saw it very clearly, and found that there was a pair of old couples sitting opposite him, chatting and chatting, these two people smiled and took out a piece of something wrapped in yellow cloth from their coat pockets and handed it to Liu Xigui, Liu Xigui took it and poured out a handful of gold from it with his backhand!!
Sure enough, it's gold! This should be the gold that was mined in the river of flowing gold!
I was afraid of being discovered, so I didn't see the details of the transaction behind, and when the old couple was about to go out, I panicked and randomly picked an unlocked house and hid it in.
The room was pitch black, very cold and empty, and after Liu Xigui saw off the guests, he stood quietly in the courtyard for a few seconds, half a night! I heard his footsteps coming straight to this room, and my heart tightened! Could it be that it was discovered?
I was thinking about how to explain it for a while, when I suddenly heard the sound of something falling to the ground.
"Smack!"
He just opened the door and threw something in, then locked the door and left.
After I was sure that he was gone, I opened my phone and took a closer look, and I couldn't help but be stunned!!
What was thrown to the ground was a yellow cloth bag, which I had just seen the old couple regard as a treasure, but there was no gold in it, but it was filled with small broken stones of different sizes and shapes!!
I almost dropped my jaw in shock, what I saw just now was gold, why did it turn to stone in the blink of an eye?
A gust of wind blew, I shivered, I subconsciously opened my phone and turned my head, and found that there was nothing in this empty room, just such large and small stones everywhere!!
