Chapter 37: Exploring the Water
How many people on the road covet Mr. Xiao's treasure to avoid water, this Lou Jinjiao is naturally among them, although there is nothing wrong with the words, but the look that cannot be concealed has betrayed his heart.
"That's right, my father just came from afar because he heard that old lady, no, he heard that Mr. Xiao was coming, so he came all the way to grab the ...... No, a glimpse of Mr. Xiao's digging hole. Bai Chi's words were a little excited, and he had already expressed his intentions and that of his Lao Tzu, who was called Bai Manghuo, couldn't be more obvious.
However, Cao Shaoqin still had a calm expression, as if the treasure that avoided the water was not attractive to him at all.
After the first sister sat down, some of the Cao Gang's subordinates came up with some food and wine, and simply ate some, and I and the first sister said goodbye.
My identity has not been directly exposed, but it is only a matter of time, because Liu Baye is here, and Xie Dongzi is Liu Baye's godson, this matter cannot be concealed for a while, and it is impossible to guarantee that my identity will be completely exposed in the next second.
After returning to his tent, he found that Liu Baye and Xiao Hong had already returned, and when they saw that I and my sister were back together, they didn't ask, obviously knowing about what we were invited to.
Liu Baye and Xiao Hong's faces were not very good, as if they had encountered some difficulty, and after several of us took turns to ask, we learned the reason.
It is said that Liu Baye and Xiao Hong were invited by Cao Tian, and the scene encountered in the tent was very similar to me and the first sister, sitting on the main seat were the brothers Cao Tian and Cao Di, as well as the old son Bai Manghuo, the rough man in the Northeast, and Lou Tianci, the son of the second elder of the Lou family, that is, the father of the twin brothers and sisters.
The Cao family brothers, like Cao Shaoqin, seem to be so indifferent to everything, but the Lou Bai family is different, intentionally or unintentionally, they are exploring Xiao Hong's water-avoiding treasures, and Xiao Hong just laughs at it.
And the Lou Bai family naturally did not let go of Liu Baye, Bai Manghuo is a northerner, so he is very clear about the Tan family, so he opened his mouth and asked Liu Baye if he took the Canglong Bead with him and let him take it out to have a look, of course, he must not have been able to get his wish.
And Lou Tianci of the Lou family naturally tapped Liu Baye openly and secretly, asking him to tell me to hand over the dragon claw, and even threatened my life with words.
Liu Baye and Xiao Hong directly became the target of everyone's attention, fortunately, the brothers of the Cao family helped the round field to solve the siege, this time everyone was invited by the Cao family to help, if there is a grudge between each other, in the past, they could wait until everything is over to make a plan.
Lou Tianci and Bai Manghuo were naturally reluctant, but at the moment in the realm of the Cao Gang, they could only reluctantly accept it.
It seems that it has calmed down, but in fact it is an undercurrent, the heart of harming people is indispensable, and the heart of preventing people is indispensable, Liu Baye is worried that Lou Bai and the two gangs will definitely not be obedient and will definitely act in secret.
Worried about everyone's safety, I reluctantly told Liu Baye that I would return the dragon claw, but Liu Baye waved his hand and said to me, things are not so simple, the Lou family's trip to return to the dragon claw is only one aspect, and it is not clear what kind of evil intentions there really are, Liu Baye suspects that the Lou family is also running for the soul.
……………… At about 3 o'clock in the afternoon of the same day, all four families gathered by the river. Cao Tian looked at a rapids in front of him and frowned slightly and said, "Brother Manghuo, are you sure that the entrance to this tomb is here?" Bai Manhuo raised his hand and touched a beard with a long face, and said with certainty: "At present, the water is injured by five arrows, the water is scattered and the knife is killed, the east to the west is the Zedi, and the nine layers are straight up to be a squad member." ”
"Don't worry, Brother Cao, it's wrong, it's here, let's explore the depth first." In the end, it is the Northern Sect that touches the gold gate, this Bai Manghuo really has two brushes, saying that he has a nose and eyes, if it weren't for Liu Baye on the side shaking his head incessantly, I would have really believed his ghost.
Liu Baye just shook his head, but he didn't mean to stop it, it was all under Cao Tian's order, and a subordinate of the Cao Gang walked to the edge of the river bank with a bamboo pole ten meters long and probed the depth.
Obviously, it was just a place close to the river bank to return to the river, but unexpectedly, the bamboo pole that was ten meters long was completely submerged under the seemingly shallow river water in front of everyone's eyes.
"How can it be so deep?" Cao Tian exclaimed. Bai Manghuo on the side said disapprehantly: "Since the ancient dragon's lair is a hundred feet deep, there is nothing to worry about, continue to explore." Seeing that Bai Mang Huo said this, Cao Tian had to order someone to pick up another ten meters on the basis of the bamboo pole, but he never thought that he would be submerged in the water again.
Two ten-meter bamboo poles are connected to each other, which is twenty meters, and the place in front of you where the river water flows is only more than ten meters wide, and in some places you can even see the riverbed below through the river.
And this place is just a vortex that extends outward, and it has such an amazing depth that everyone at the scene is terrified.
"Brother Manghuo, what the hell is going on, isn't twenty meters enough to the end?" Bai Manhuo didn't seem to expect it to be like this, and his face became a little ugly, but maybe because too many people were watching, it was really bad to lose face, so he forced a smile again: "Hahahaha...... One meter is three feet long, and another ten meters can be nearly 100 feet, and go on, go on. So the bamboo pole for exploring the water was connected another ten meters, and when all eyes were focused on the third ten-meter bamboo pole, I turned my head to look at the white manghuo, and saw that he was raising his hand to wipe the sweat on his head.
While wiping his sweat, he was still muttering something in his mouth, looking at his vague gestures, no matter how he looked at it, it looked like he was begging God for blessing.
I don't know if it's the favor of God, or if Bai Manghuo really has that ability, after the third bamboo pole is connected, it really measured the depth and gouged off the remaining one meter on the water surface, which means that the water depth here is twenty-nine meters.
"Hahahaha...... How about it, Bai is right. Bai Manhuo looked relieved, and immediately began to brag about his ability to view acupoints.
The Cao brothers on the side also praised again and again, but Liu Baye shook his head even harder.
Without waiting for anyone to speak, Liu Baye walked to the bank of the river, stared at the bamboo pole that was half exposed on the water for a long time, and then reached out and grabbed the bamboo pole.
It was also this move that made all eyes focus on Liu Baye.
