The wind is a little urgent.

Now only the well and the foreign treasure have not been checked, and there is still a difference of more than 7,000 taels. He didn't want to be sent to Datong to drink wind and eat sand.

Chang Feng belonged to the category of the most profound city government among his colleagues at the age of twenty. At this moment, Xu Fatzi saw an anxious look on his face.

Xu Fatzi comforted him: "People die and birds rise to the sky." Master Chang, check the well and hide it! ”

Chang Feng nodded.

As the name suggests. Corrupt officials and wealthy families would put their silver in sealed iron boxes and sink it into the well water.

There are a total of six wells in the front yard, the back yard, the east and west cross courtyards, and the east and west sets of courtyards.

Chang Feng came to the well in the front yard first. He turned the wheel first and fetched a bucket of water.

Then he dipped his finger in some water, put it in his mouth and sucked it.

Fat Xu asked, "How is it?" ”

Chang Feng shook his head helplessly: "I'm afraid there is no goods in the well." ”

Chang Feng judged that there was no silver in the well because the well water did not smell of rust.

The iron box containing the silver has been sunk in the well water for a long time, and it usually rusts. Well water also smells of rust.

Therefore, to check the well hidden, you must first taste the taste of water.

Chang Feng scooped some water with a scoop and tasted it carefully - sweet and clear, without the slightest smell of rust.

However, to be on the safe side, he still let a water ghost captain go down the well.

The captain of the water ghost went down the well along the rope and dived into the well to grope for a while. No anomalies were found.

Chang Feng was helpless, so he had to take someone to the East Cross Courtyard again. There is still no silver hidden in the well of the East Crossing Courtyard.

In the next hour, he carefully checked the wells in the west courtyard and the two sets of courtyards, but he didn't find a single tael of silver.

Xu Fatzi said: "Could it be that Cai Shilang didn't play well hidden?" ”

Chang Feng said: "It's possible. There are eight ways to hide silver. But corrupt officials don't use everything. ”

Now only the well in the backyard remains unchecked.

Chang Feng walked to a foot in front of the well in the backyard. He looked around and blurted out, "There's a problem!" ”

Xu Fatzi asked, "What's the problem?" ”

Chang Feng pointed to a house in front of the well: "That's Cai Zhong's bedroom." Even ordinary people who don't understand the art of yin and yang feng shui know that they can't dig wells behind their bedrooms. ”

"A well is drilled behind the bedroom, and the well will block the air veins of the owner's house. It is easy to commit villains and hinder the addition of Ding. ”

"Cai Zhong's Shilang Mansion was built so exquisitely, how could he make such a mistake? Dig the well behind the bedroom? He doesn't want to have a son anymore? ”

He walked briskly to the well and looked down. There is no water in the well, it is a dry well!

Chang Feng breathed a long sigh of relief: "Fatty." Our brothers' waist cards and future are preserved this time. ”

Xu Fatzi asked, "How do you say this?" ”

Chang Feng said: "Do you remember meeting the fortune teller in the morning, what he said?" Seek wealth and get rich, but wealth does not belong to yourself. Wealth is like in water, but it is in the earth. ”

"A dry well looks like a well, and it seems to have water, but in fact there is no water, and there is only soil under the well. Isn't that the right answer to the fortune teller's words? ”

Xu Fatzi suddenly realized: "I understand." There must be silver buried under this dry well. ”

Chang Feng carried a shovel on his back and went down the well himself.

At the bottom of the well, the clods of soil at the bottom of the well have dried up and cracked.

Chang Feng picked up the shovel and dug down one shovel at a time.

While digging, he shouted the trumpet and prayed for the blessing of the grandfather.

"Zhao Gongming, hey! Help, hey! Ordered to raid the house, hey! Gold and silver treasures, hey! Find them all, hey! ”

The excavated soil was directly filled in the bucket, and the fat man Xu on it turned the wheel and transported it to the outside of the well to be dumped.

Chang Feng almost exerted all his strength, dug for half an hour, and dug down three feet. However, there was no trace of silver!

The underground space is limited, and you can't pick your head. Holding the shovel in his arm and pushing downward, it was extremely laborious.

Chang Feng felt that his hands were sore, and his legs were trembling slightly. In desperation, he had to let Xu Fatzi hang him out of the well.

Hanging to the middle of the well, Chang Feng's hand accidentally rubbed the green bricks used in the wall of the well. The back of the hand was rubbed against the skin, but it was not a big deal.

After coming out of the well, Chang Feng was a little unwilling: "It seems to be in the water, but it is really in the soil...... I think it's this dry well. How is it possible to get nothing? ”

Xu Fatzi said: "Haven't you always believed in the fortune-telling and fortune-telling of charlatans? Why is it superstitious today? ”

Chang Feng did not speak.

People who don't usually believe in ghosts and gods will also regard metaphysical arguments as a lifesaver when they are in a desperate situation.

Chang Feng ordered several wrestlers: "You guys take turns going down the well." Rotate every two quarters. Even if you dig up to the Netherworld, you have to dig out the silver for me today! ”

A wrestler went down the well first.

The hour passed by I dug until the end of the afternoon. The dry well was dug down directly. Where is the shadow of silver?

The last wrestler came out of the well and said to Chang Feng: "General Banner, the bottom of the well has begun to seep water beads!" Dig any further down, and the dry well may become a living well! ”

Chang Feng showed a disappointed look on his face: "Could it be that there is really no silver hidden in this dry well?" ”

Xu Fatzi urged: "Master Chang, there are less than two hours before the deadline of the unitary hour." Don't waste time on this dry well. Let's look it up directly. ”

The so-called "exotic collection", as the name suggests, is an unusual method of hiding silver, which is often unexpected.

When Chang Feng used to raid his house, he once encountered a person who hid silver in a chimney; Hidden inside the gatekeeper stone lion...... These are all heterogeneous treasures.

Chang Feng and the wrestlers split up, going back and forth in the six courtyards of Cai's mansion, looking around for possible silver.

He stopped in front of a large poplar tree in front of Cai Zhong's study.

Chang Feng looked up at the big poplar tree. It didn't matter what he saw, he blurted out: "There's something wrong! ”

Xu Fatzi disagreed: "You said that this big poplar tree is strange? No, I know that in front of the study is Wenchang. Wenchang planted trees, which can bless the descendants of the future. ”

"It's called the Blessing Tree! There was a big apricot tree planted in front of my father's study. You've eaten apricots from that tree in the summer! ”

Chang Feng pointed to an old eagle's nest in the tree. By chance, two crows flew out of their nests.

Fat Xu asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Chang Feng said: "The old eagle's nest on the tree is the crow's nest, not the magpie's!" On the blessing tree of Wenchang, if there is a magpie nesting, it is a good omen. If a crow nests, it is a bad omen. ”

"Generally, when crows build their nests in the shade tree, the master will have the servants poke them off with bamboo poles. If the taller ones are built, the bamboo poles will not be able to reach the whip, and the servants will climb the trees and tear them down. ”

"Isn't it strange that there is such a big old eagle's nest on Cai Zhong's Fuyin tree?"

Xu Fatzi thought for a while and said, "Haha, maybe Cai Zhong has a kind heart?" The old owl's nest was left behind. Just in response to the bad omen, he committed suicide in fear of sin, and his mansion was raided. ”

Chang Feng shook his head: "I still feel weird. ”

He remembered that Shi Wenyi, the captain of the "prostitute" last night, was good at climbing trees.

He ordered Captain Shi to be summoned and ordered to climb up the tree to see what was wrong with the old owl's nest.

Captain Shi found two rags and wrapped them around his hands. He took off his official boots again. Agile like a monkey, he climbed up with his hands around the trunk of the tree.

Nearly two feet away, he was able to reach out and reach the old eagle's nest.

Chang Feng tilted his head and looked at Captain Shi.

I only heard Captain Shi shouting: "Get out of the way!" There's something in the old owl's nest! I'll throw it down and smash you carefully! ”

Not long after, something fell from the sky. "Wow" slammed on the ground.

Xu Fatzi exclaimed: "Mother's leg, it turned out to be ......"
