191. Salt mines
Regarding the problem of manpower, Liu Xinning thought about it for a while, and finally gave up using outsiders.
With outsiders, things are uncontrollable.
Only using your own people, although it takes a long time, it is always safe.
Therefore, in the house of Zhaoyang City, except for the two guards who were left on duty every day because they had to protect the two masters, the other guards were scattered to Daqing Mountain to look for them.
This search began from the mountain in front of Daqing Mountain, and proceeded little by little.
Before, the Qian family had already asked the people in the village to help, and went to the area where everyone often went to find it.
Therefore, the focus this time is the area where Qian Dahu's shoes were found.
After careful search by the guards, no trace of Qian Dahu was found.
So, the guards began to work in groups of three, starting from the foot of Daqing Mountain and searching inside.
The front part of the front green mountain was quickly searched, and the guards began to carefully search the deep part of the front green mountain and the back green mountain.
The days passed day by day, but the missing Qian Dahu was still not found.
The Qian family looked at the guards who worked so hard, and asked them to give up with tears in their eyes.
Liu Xinning listened to the words of the guards, so she made a special trip to comfort the Qian family.
"Miss Liu, your kindness, our family has recorded it. But it's been more than a month now. Even if you find the big tiger, I'm afraid it's still a ......"
The last word 'corpse' was swallowed by Qian Fu.
Qian Dahu went to Daqingshan on the thirteenth day of the first month, and now it is February 25, which is not more than a month.
There are few people in the mountains, there are many wild beasts, and I am even more afraid that there are no bones.
Cai took the medicine prescribed by the doctor in the city, and now his complexion is much better. She leaned back in her chair and listened to Qian Fu's words, just crying.
Although she also wants to have extravagant hopes, she has to face reality. Miss Liu's guards run up the mountain every day, how tired they are.
"Let's look again. What if someone saves you? Isn't there often a story of a person who picks medicine for treatment in that book? ”
Liu Xinning's heart was also a little anxious.
Judging from the current situation, Qian Dahu should really have an accident.
However, it's been more than a month, and there is not even a shadow of the gold mine.
No one was saved, and the gold mine was not found, so it was useless.
Alas, this thunder of the author is buried so deeply. Where is the gold mine?
"How is that possible......"
Qian Fu and Cai's expressed their gratitude with each word, and at the same time asked Liu Xinning to give up.
Liu Xinning was trying to recall the details in the book, while comforting softly.
At this moment, Xiao Muze came in with a serious face and said, "Uncle, there is something in our house, we need to go back first." The guards are still searching, rest assured. ”
The Qian family and his wife naturally let them go to work by themselves.
Liu Xinning followed Xiao Muze out of the gate and got into the carriage suspiciously.
Liu Xinning went out today, and Xiao Muze was naturally accompanied.
However, when Liu Xinning comforted people, Xiao Muze said that he was not good at this, so he waited in the carriage.
Liu Xinning thought that the last time she came to Qian's house, Xiao Muze was really bored to be a transparent person all morning, so she went in with Chun Nuan by herself.
It's just that he hasn't stayed long this time, why did Xiao Muze suddenly say that he wanted to leave?
There are only two of them in the house, what can happen?
Also, why is Ling Yi there? Did he go up the mountain to look for it today?
Don't? Isn't it......
Liu Xinning's heart suddenly lifted.
She lifted the curtain and was about to ask, but Xiao Muze came in and sat down opposite her.
"Escort Li, let's catch the car." Xiao Muze opened his mouth and ordered the guards to catch the car.
Seeing Xiao Muze give up riding a horse and riding in a carriage, Liu Xinning desperately pressed her beating heart.
And Xiao Muze looked at Chun Nuan, who was accompanying Liu Xinning, pondered for a while, and said to Liu Xinning: "I have something very important to tell you, let Aunt Chun Nuan get tired and go to the car to sit on the wheel first." ”
Seeing Xiao Muze's serious expression, and then thinking of the gold mine on Houqingshan, Liu Xinning couldn't help but feel a little palpitating.
"Auntie, you put on a big hat, take the hand stove, and go outside for a while."
"Yes. But it's the end of February, and it's not that cold. ”
Chun Nuan looked at Xiao Muze's expression, and didn't waste time wearing a big coat.
But after the carriage stopped, he quickly lifted the curtain and went out with the hand stove in his arms.
The carriage began to move slowly again.
Liu Xinning lifted the curtain, looked at Ling Yi guarding outside the carriage, and then looked at the empty road, and then asked softly, "Cousin, what's wrong?" ”
Xiao Muze didn't speak, but pondered for a moment, and suddenly got up and sat next to Liu Xinning, before he whispered seriously: "Ling Yi's group found that there were people mining salt mines in the back mountains. ”
"What?"
Liu Xinning exclaimed uncontrollably, completely stunned.
Salt? After this, there is actually a salt mine in the green mountains? Isn't it a gold mine?
Is it the author who wrote it wrong? Or is she mistaken?
"Yes. When Ling Yi's group walked to a mountain, they heard movement inside, so they quietly went to check it. There was actually a salt mine in it, and now people are already mining it. It's just that there are overseers inside, so Ling Yi and the others didn't investigate further. However, when they checked, they noticed that someone was pushing a cart with sacks into a small valley. After following up, I found that there was a path in the valley that led directly to the outside of the mountain...... Ling Yi was afraid of alarming them, so he left one person to guard near the salt mine, and asked the other person to inform the others to come down the mountain, so as not to make any noise. He also hurried to tell me. ”
Xiao Muze whispered a simple story.
Liu Xinning was already wooden when she heard this.
What's the situation, this Daqingshan is still a treasure mountain?
"Isn't that what you're looking for?"
Xiao Muze looked at Liu Xinning's shocked and abnormal appearance, and finally couldn't help but say curiously.
"What?"
Listening to Xiao Muze's words, Liu Xinning came to her senses completely, and her face changed slightly.
The shocking information over there hasn't been absorbed yet, and the thunder here has exploded again?
"You've been looking for the back mountains all these days, aren't you just looking for something?" Xiao Muze said calmly.
“……”
"When you search the depths of the front green mountain, you suggest that the guards search the back mountain. I went to the back mountains once. Although there are occasional woods over there, they are the kind of towering ancient trees that cover the sky and the sun. Others, just cliffs or bare hills. It wasn't like a place with prey and mountain goods at all. So, how could Qian Dahu go to the back mountain? However, you still asked the guards to look for it in the back mountain, always saying that there was a case. So, I'm guessing you're looking for something. Now, the salt mine has been found. ”
Xiao Muze explained carefully.
After Liu Xinning listened, she laughed.
Yes, she herself is such an obvious abnormality, how can she hide it from Xiao Muze, who has been with her for more than a year?
What's more, Xiao Muze has never been a gentleman who doesn't know anything in the rich and gentle township, but a soldier who has been baptized by war on the battlefield.
He may not be strategic, but he must be sharp. The previous mistakes were just obsession!
And after being imprisoned, his growth is obvious to all.
