Zhou Mengyuan clearly remembered that after his father led the three brothers to hide the gold bars in the dry well in the backyard, he said that these four gold bars were not easy to come by, and they were obtained by generations of our Zhou family with blood, sweat and wisdom.

Now is the time of necessity, Zhou Mengyuan, who is poor and has to sue for a big complaint, urgently needs these four life-saving gold bars. However, the house was occupied by others, and it was obviously impossible for Daming to be generous, Zhou Mengyuan racked his brains and didn't know how to think of tens of thousands of feasible methods, and finally decided to get these four gold bars by the stupidest and easiest means------ wanting to cross the wall at night when the courtyard guards were asleep.

Sitting quietly on a stone at the door of my grandmother's cave, although I was a little excited, my real heart was half happy, and generally worried.

Happily, you can get gold bars and go all over the country to file a complaint.

The worrying thing is that he is a polite and talented, and he has never even climbed a tree branch, and suddenly he wants to climb the wall in the dark, how easy is it!

Anxious eyes looked at the West Mountain, looking at the calm water surface of the Seven Star River under the glow of the slanting sun, but there were ripples in his heart.

The green of the opposite shore in the backlight has turned into black and white, solemn and solemn, as if it is about to collapse, and the sparkling water surface under the slanting sun seems to float with pieces of glowing gold.

The kumquat sun sets over the western mountains, and flocks of birds return to the nest.

Waiting is a kind of torment!

A crescent moon floats on the surface, and a few gusts of night wind ripple.

"Yuan'er, it's probably not early, haven't you heard the owl on the other side for a long time?"

The old woman had woken up from a nap and urged her several times, but Zhou Mengyuan just wanted to sit outside for a while under the pretext of blowing the wind to comfort her grandmother to sleep well.

The moon wears thin clouds and gradually moves westward, and the night is silent.

Thin clouds, scraping the crescent moon like a hook.

The wind was blowing, and the surrounding leaves rattled.

Zhou Mengyuan heard the sound of his grandmother's breathing in her sleep, and was glad that her actions would not be discovered and cause the elderly to worry. At the same time, I also heard the sound of my own heart beating faster, bang, as if I wanted to jump out of my mouth.

The elegant Confucian suddenly wants to "be a thief", the path is different, which one will not be nervous?

The stakes are too high to be afraid to do it. Zhou Mengyuan stood up resolutely, and gave himself the courage to stride away. said that it was a big stride meteor, and the steps were indeed not small, but he kept muttering in his heart. At this moment, faith prevails over all.

Outside the wall of the backyard of the Zhou family, Zhou Mengyuan lightly picked up a few stones and stacked them, standing on them tremblingly, grabbing the cracks in the wall with both hands, and no matter how hard he exerted his strength, the heavy footboards could not be separated from the stepping stones.

"Whoa!"

With a hard foot, the stepping stone collapsed, his hands left the crack in the wall and fell down and lay down in the thatch, his sweaty face provoked a swarm of hungry mosquitoes and small insects to quickly surround him, buzzing and screaming for the pleasure of sucking blood.

"Wangwang"

The big in the courtyard barked a few times alertly, and quickly regained her composure.

Apparently not really discovered. Zhou Mengyuan was not timid, rubbed his eyes and got up and fanned his palms to drive away mosquitoes, squatted there and looked at the thick earthen wall and thought for a moment, while patting the thatch residue stained on his clothes and turned back.

The next day, he found Thursday hoeing in a cornfield, told him everything frankly, and promised him a gold bar to get things done.

Whether the success of the matter must be fulfilled, Thursday has his own plan in his heart.

The two of them agreed on the time of action, took a shovel and made a mark outside the wall before dark----- west of the back door, the door frame was seven natural steps to the west, digging three feet deep, passing through the bottom of the wall, and then the shortest distance was the place where the gold bars were hidden in the dry well.

At midnight, the wind was blowing. Thursday at home.

"God help us, young master, this is the best time, let's go. ”

Qin'er, who was lying on the kang and pretending to be asleep, was thinking about how she could help Zhou Mengyuan at this extraordinary moment.

After turning it over and over, he finally paid attention, ignoring his mother's kindness of "you are a girl, you can't help, maybe you will add to the chaos", put on clothes, took a stick in the yard, and went straight to the gate of the original Zhou family.

Late at night, neither the darkness nor the strong winds could give the weak woman the slightest sense of fear, for she considered what she was doing to be more important than anything else, even her own life.

The wind is howling, the weeds are bending over, the leaves are rustling...

Everything covered up the sound of the friction between the shovel and the loess when Thursday and Zhou Mengyuan were digging.

The big in the yard has a completely confused sense of hearing and smell, and she is lying in the kennel and falling asleep, dreaming of the spring and autumn dream of the owner rewarding her with a cheap bone.

When the passage had just been dug over the wall, Zhou Mengyuan was already sweating.

The sweat in the wind was cold. It was the sixteen human lives and the belief in revenge that gave Zhou Meng the power of the earthly dragon, and he was even faster than Thursday.

Thursday digs in front, and Zhou Mengyuan transfers the excavated soil to the other side in the back.

In less than half an hour, they had dug a section of the wall at the base of the wall.

"Listen to the sound, it seems to be coming. Thursday reported that the good news was about to come down slowly, lest a spade use too much force to pick the gold bar into the well, "It's almost over." The wellhead is three or four steps away from the wall. Thursday's mood was much lighter, full of strength, a little worried, "What if the people guarding the yard come?"

Zhou Mengyuan cut the gold and cut the railway: "Kill with a spade!"

"Be quiet. The wind is less. Thursday quietly reminded.

Qin'er, who had been guarding the gate, had already been frozen by the mountain wind in the middle of the night, hugging her arms and curling up her waist and shuddering.

It was impossible to judge what stage of his father and Zhou Mengyuan's actions had reached at this time, standing there blindly, ready to prove his wisdom and love with his actions at any time.

Heaven is beautiful, but it also plays tricks on people. It seems that he wants to complete the two-week nuggets, and he also wants to give Qin'er a chance to make meritorious contributions.

It was as if a person who was snoring loudly had his throat choked, the wind suddenly stopped, the surroundings returned to calm, and the sound of "snorting" shovels digging was amplified.

The big heard the sound and barked wildly, sounding the alarm for both the digger and Qin'er.

Qin'er perked up, and put one eye on the crack in the door to look in.

The keeper was woken up by the dog, sat up suddenly, and concluded that someone had been admitted to the hospital based on the crazy neighing sound of the dog, which was rarely seen by the dog.

Whether it was a thief or a perpetrator is not yet understood.

Quickly lit the oil lamp, put on his clothes, turned over and went out of the kang to open the door, but he was still a little frightened, reached out and took a saber next to the eaves of the kang, opened the door, and the knife slashed the air in front of him and went out.

The urn said angrily: "Who? If you don't come out again, Lao Tzu will let the dog bite you to death!"

To deceive is also to embolden yourself.

After all, what kind of situation will occur in the dark, the guards have no bottom in their hearts.

"Someone is talking inside!" Zhou Mengyuan reminded Thursday.

"Don't be afraid. Just a few clicks. ”

Thursday had already thrown the shovel aside, climbed into the hole that had just been dug and carefully touched it with his hands.

Suddenly, the tips of his fingers touched something cold and shiny.

After carefully digging the soil a few times, he reached over with both hands, clamped the small but heavy black porcelain jar tightly, and retreated, "It's done." Grab your shovel and go!"

At the same time, the careful Qin'er could see clearly in the crack of the door, and the dark shadow of the courtyard keeper stood at the door of the room for a moment, probably judging the sound of the backyard by the direction of the dog's bite, and wanted to let the dog go.

"Bang Bang Bang..."

Qin'er slammed the gate with her sticks with all her might.

The big barked at the gate again.

In the middle of the night, someone dared to slam the door so blatantly and recklessly, presumably because they were not afraid of death or because they were prepared by bandits or masters.

The comer is not good!

Save your life!

Hurriedly letting go of the dog, the five big and three thick courtyard guards quickly returned to the room, quickly closed the door, reinforced it with a wooden stick, held a large knife in his hand, extinguished the oil lamp, and squatted behind the door, ready to meet the enemy at any time.

It turns out that the guardians of the tiger and tiger are also afraid of death.

When I returned home, I changed the information and told her that on Thursday, Qin'er also went out.

Zhou Mengyuan was anxious for a while, and wanted to go to find it, but was stopped by Thursday, "Don't go out." She'll be back soon. Didn't you hear the sound of slamming the door? Qin'er must have done it to hold the guards. ”

Qin'er came back, seeing Zhou Mengyuan and his father's relaxed expressions, she was relieved, and under the reprimand on Thursday, she went to sleep on the kang without saying a word.

Zhou Mengyuan opened the mouth of the can, poured out a black satin package, opened it, and the four gold bars were presented in front of him intact.

Thursday's wife, who had been lying on the kang, sat up suddenly, looked at it with wide eyes, and marveled in her heart, so many real guys, I don't know how much land, how many houses, cattle, sheep and horses to buy when they take them out.

Zhou Mengyuan didn't break his promise, knowing that the fourth uncle was stubborn, he picked up a gold bar and handed it to Gaigai, "Fourth aunt, this one belongs to you, and you won't have to live this kind of life in the future." ”

"I don't want to. Gai refused in a low voice, but he couldn't help but stretch out his hands tremblingly.

At the moment when the tips of his fingers were about to touch Zhou Mengyuan's gold bar, thousands of beautiful fantasies flashed in his mind.

Qin'er sat up anxiously, trying to stop her mother.

"How dare you!" Thursday said, with a black face, bluffing back his trembling hands.

"Poof!"

Zhou Mengyuan knelt down and burst into tears in his eyes, "Fourth uncle, no matter what, you have to accept this! Otherwise, my nephew and I will not be happy until I die." ”

sighed: If people are in trouble, their dignity will also be hurt!

The conceited young master of the Zhou family, where does he have the experience of kneeling, even when he reads the private school, the poems have not been memorized on time, the calligraphy is crooked, the gentleman has swollen his palm, and the tears have not yielded to kneeling.

It's different now.

When he was in danger, the whole family tried their best to help him on Thursday, and raised his grandmother on his behalf with Qin'er as the main body.

Hurriedly helping him up, Thursday took the gold bar that he had never seen in his life, which weighed completely more than the volume, and wrapped it firmly with the remaining three, and put it into a jar, "Child, our whole family understands your heart." This gold bar cannot be collected alive or dead. With such a big murder case, I don't know how many ups and downs it will go through in what year and month it will be reported. One penny more, one more guts!"

"yes, yes. He apologized, "Listen to your fourth uncle, avenge the Zhou family, and get back the yard." ”

Qin'er "slept", but her ears were awake.

Thursday touched the thick and hard stubble on his chin back and forth, and stammered for a long time: "Mengyuan, except for your grandmother, there is no one else in your family, this lawsuit is not trivial, there must be someone around to take care of it, if you don't dislike it, let Qin'er accompany you." She doesn't go to the ground, and staying at home is redundant. ”

"I'm just afraid..." Zhou Mengyuan said thoughtfully, "I'm just afraid that I won't be able to take care of it and make her suffer." ”

At this moment, Zhou Mengyuan understood the meaning of Thursday very well, so why not be happy in his heart?

It's just that in the past few years, they have been interacting with each other like a moment, and they only said hello and passed by, and rarely had the kind of heartfelt words they had in their childhood, and they couldn't touch Qin'er's mind for a while, and Zhou Mengyuan lost his self-confidence.

Qin'er prayed in her heart, "Dad, let's talk about it again, Qin'er is okay with running away." ”

Thursday seemed to hear her daughter's voice, and smiled slightly, "As long as the little master is willing, Qin'er can suffer anything." ”

"Fourth uncle, rest assured, I will definitely protect Qin'er like my own sister. ”
