Zhang Cui was just joking, who knew that Zhou Hai was still serious.

At this time, Zhang Cui gave Zhou Hai a tael of silver, went to the town, bought some pork, and made a tooth sacrifice.

Zhou Hai was overjoyed. Taking advantage of this opportunity, although he went to the town, he did not go directly to the butcher's shop, but went to the fortune teller first.

This fortune teller is called Shu Ji.

I saw that under the big mouth, there was a pinch of white goatee; Wearing a Taoist hat and a pair of glasses, behind the thick lenses, there is a pair of small eyes, dripping around.

Always and everywhere, showing cunning and shrewdness.

On the corner of the street in Changzhen, on a vacant lot, a large red cloth was spread out, and stones were pressed at the four corners to prevent the wind from blowing it away. On the red cloth, three words are written in ink: "Report to the king". At the bottom of the red cloth, there are rows of small characters in the book, but I can't see it clearly, which is nothing more than saying that fortune-telling is a miracle and so on.

Shu Ji sat leisurely on a small stool, standing behind this red cloth, and a group of people gathered in front to watch the excitement.

Zhou Hai walked over, separated the crowd, squatted in front of the red cloth, took a breath, greeted Shu Ji, looked at the words on the red cloth, and then said what happened in the dream.

When Shu Ji heard this, he looked Zhou Hai up and down, and without saying a word, he took out the lottery holder from the baggage, and shook the lottery holder again, letting Zhou Hai draw lots casually.

Zhou Hai glanced at the stick, as if fate was tied to it, very cautious.

He put his hands on his mouth, blew, muttered quietly, and reverently made a wish. Draw your hand again and draw a lot.

When I looked at the sign, it was a big "hair" word.

Shu Ji took the sign, stroked his goatee, and looked at it carefully.

Then, pinching his right finger, he muttered in his mouth, like a monk chanting sutras, and kept whispering, and others didn't know what he was talking about, maybe he was making a fuss.

After muttering for a while, suddenly, Shu Ji stopped and asked Zhou Hai to take a tael of silver before speaking.

Zhou Hai was dissatisfied and said: "Usually fortune telling, isn't it a pattern of silver?" Why do you want so much today? ”

Shu Ji said: "This lottery is extraordinary, naturally more than usual. ”

Those people around them see a drama to watch. It's all coaxing, playing, and watching strange. Cheering Zhou Hai in unison, he said, "You hurry up and give it!" Give it and say it. ”

Because Zhou Hai only had one or two taels of silver in his pocket, Zhang Cui bought pork for him.

If you can't buy pork, won't you be able to make a tooth sacrifice?

Come to think of it, there was some hesitation.

However, Zhou Hai couldn't help it, he wanted to listen to the words of the dream interpretation and predict the good luck and evil in the future, but he couldn't resist the coaxing of the people around him, and in a hurry, he gritted his teeth, so he gave one or two silvers.

Shu Ji stroked his beard again and said casually: "If you draw the word 'hair' and dream of flooding, it is a great thing, which means that you will make a fortune recently." For water is wealth, and floods are wealth. The old house is blown down, indicating that there is going to be a new house. The old does not go, the new does not come. ”

Zhou Hai asked: "How to get rich, when will you get rich?" ”

Shu Ji smiled, his little eyes flashed with a cunning light, and he pretended to be mysterious: "The secret of heaven must not be leaked!" ”

After hearing this, Zhou Hai was very disappointed. I thought to myself, the fortune teller is all blackmail, and he uses some words to fool me casually, so I don't listen to his nonsense if I know it, but it's a pity that I lost the one or two pieces of silver.

These people around them, seeing that the fortune teller didn't say any big reason, but just said some ordinary words, which was not unusual, they scattered in a hurry.

Zhou Hai went home stupidly.

The pork was not bought, and it was taken to draw lots for fortune telling, and it was a silver tael in vain without a marginal pedigree. Zhou Hai was scolded by Zhang Cui. Poor Zhou Hai had to cover his head and let him scold him.

The woman scolded Zhou Hai incessantly, scolding for a while, until she scolded enough, and then refused to stop.

Of course, after Zhou Jiang and his wife heard about it, they inevitably laughed at Zhou Hai.

Lu Gui expected Zhou Hai to be not a person who did farm work. knows how to play tricks all day long, so that shortcuts are embarrassing. So he smiled and thought to himself, it is indeed not easy for a lazy person to make him come to do farm work suddenly, there must be a process of adaptation.

So, I just cared about Zhou Haiye's temperament.

When Lu Gui was working in the field, he let Zhou Hai go if he wanted, and he didn't care if he didn't go. no longer took the initiative to call Zhou Hai together, but only went out with Jiang Xian.

Of course, Zhou Hai wished that he could sleep lazily in the morning, and he was willing to turn over and get up until the sun dried his buttocks.

On this day, Lu Gui and Jiang Xian went to work in the fields.

Lu Gui held the hoe in his hand and turned the soil hard. His skin was scorching, sweating like rain, and the back of his clothes was wet with sweat. The hoe swings up and down like a single pendulum that keeps swinging.

Suddenly, Lu Gui stopped and looked at Zhang Cui.

Zhang Cui felt that something was wrong with her husband and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Lu Gui didn't answer. When the hoe just dug down, I felt that I had dug something hard, which made the hoe splash in all directions. The thing was exposed, and it looked black.

Lu Gui exclaimed: "Come and see, what is this?" ”

Zhang Cui, who was not far away, was holding a basket in his left hand and scattering seeds with his right hand. Hearing the scream, he walked over and tucked the hair that fell on his forehead as he walked.

The sky was gray, and a crow hovered in the sky, making an ugly "squeak" call.

Zhang Cui took a closer look, rubbed her eyes, and said curiously, "What is this?" Dig it out and take a look. ”

Soon, digging out of the earth, there were five large chests—black, quite large, sturdy, and gilded. Look at the box is still locked, but it's rusted.

Zhang Cui said without hesitation and curiosity: "Open it up and take a look!" ”

Lu Gui swung his hoe, struck it, and knocked the lock off at once.

When he opened the chests one by one, he saw that there were three chests full of gold; The other two boxes contained countless valuables such as gold and silver jewelry, night pearls, pearls, and agate.

When the two saw this, they were stunned.

In an instant, he jumped up with joy again.

Lu Gui quietly asked, "Who buried this?" "It's like talking to yourself.

Zhang Cui said: "It doesn't matter who buried him, if we dig it, it's ours." Rich, rich! ”

Lu Gui put his hand on his mouth, gestured, and said, "Shh...... Be quiet, don't be quiet! ”

With that, he hurriedly stood up, stretched out his head, and looked around. I looked around and saw that no one was noticed, so I was relieved.

Jiang Xian said: "So many treasures are enough for several lifetimes. We dragged and fled, and lived elsewhere. ”

Lu Gui shook his head and said, "No, absolutely not." I must not let down Mr. Zhou's life-saving grace. Money is something outside of the body, and it cannot be coveted. Otherwise, they will be punished. ”

Jiang Xian asked, "Then what do you mean?" ”

Lu Gui said: "I mean, these gold and silver treasures were found in Zhou Haiti. They should all be pulled back to Zhou Hai, and we can't take possession of them without conscience. ”

Zhang Cui agreed.

Lu Gui said again: "A person, you have to talk about your conscience. Zhou Hai and Zhang Cui treat us as our fathers and mothers, and Zhou Shao calls us grandfathers and mothers-in-law, and we must also be worthy of their family! ”

Zhang Cui was embarrassed and said, "You have a point. But on the way back, I was worried about running into bad guys robbing me. ”

Lu Gui said: "Don't be afraid, I carry this big knife." ”

It turns out that the world is chaotic, just in case. Lu Gui knows martial arts, and usually always carries a big knife with him.

But here comes the problem again, this place where the crops are grown, is still a little far from home, about a few miles away. Zhang Cui asked: "Five boxes, so heavy, how to transport them back?" ”

Lu Gui pondered for a moment, pointed to a group of people not far away, and said, "I'll go there and borrow a carriage." ”

Everything has been decided.

The two of them quietly transported back, unconsciously.

Later, some people said that these gold, silver and jewelry belonged to the peasant rebel army. When they were defeated, they buried them here. A few years later, it was dug up by luck.

Locally, there is a children's song that says: "The thieves are gone, and some people dig up the ground to find treasure." ”

Let's say that Lu Gui borrowed a carriage from a nearby family, and together with Zhang Cui, loaded the five boxes of gold and silver treasures into the carriage and pulled them back.

On the way, I met two gangsters who came to block the road and rob them.

These two gangsters, one is called Cheng Yu and the other is Wang Lai.

Lu Gui originally knew the two of them.

These two people are from nearby villages. He is an idler, likes to play cards, and engages in big gambling.

On this day, I lost the bet, and when I was lost, I came out to hang out. I accidentally found that Lu Guilai borrowed a carriage. Quietly followed, and saw Lu Gui loading five boxes.

Guess what's inside the box, it's supposed to be something of value.

Then, he kept following Lu Gui and looked for an opportunity to start halfway.

Walking, walking, Cheng and Wang, seeing that this sparsely populated person is a good opportunity. Take a detour to the front and block Lu Gui's way.

Jiang Xian was a little scared when she saw it.

Lu Gui quietly comforted: "With me here, don't be afraid." Then he called him by name and shouted, "What do you want to do?" ”

Cheng Yu sneered and said, "What are you doing?" I want the contents of your box. ”

Lu Gui also smiled and replied: "It's not impossible to ask for the contents of the box, but I may not agree to this big knife in my hand." ”

Cheng Yu sneered again, angry from the side of his guts, and asked Wang Lai to go up first and fight against Lu Gui.
