Su Qingning now felt full of energy, and as soon as he went out, he took away all the things he had not had time to collect.
In the blink of an eye, he saw some fire flickering in the forest not far away. He immediately took Xiao Huaishuo's hand and teleported to the vicinity of 깊.
As soon as I landed, I heard the sound of hundreds of shovels digging at the same time, and a middle-aged man urged impatiently:
“Haven’t you found it yet?”
"No... not yet..."
"General... General, we can dig out some gold and jade from time to time, but we have never found the entrance to the treasure. There are no signs that these things have been touched by anyone, as if the gold has always been there..."
"How could these gold and silver ornaments, which are obviously added by someone, have been inside originally? Hurry up and dig! You won't be able to sleep for a day if you can't find the entrance to the underground palace!"
"As you command!"
Several hundred black-clad soldiers began to dig the soil with great effort. The general seemed to be very anxious, and kicked the Feng Shui master beside him to the ground.
"Why haven't you found it yet? Aren't you the most famous Feng Shui master around here? How come you haven't figured out the exact location of the treasure in an hour?"
"I'm telling you the truth. The world is in chaos right now, and we're in urgent need of money. If you can't figure it out by tomorrow morning, I'll kill you first!"
"Hey, hey, military lord, spare my life! I am good at reading the Feng Shui of tombs, but this buried treasure is different from a tomb! And it is said that the ancestor of the Xiao family had a close relationship with Lu Yan, a master of an organization. How could their buried treasure be easily found by me?!"
Who knew that the next moment, he was grabbed by the neck by the general.
"I'll ask you again, can you calculate it? If you can't calculate it, I'll kill you right now!"
"I can... I can... I can calculate it, sir. I suddenly remembered a secret technique passed down from my family, which is used to explore the location of treasures. I can find the exact location of the Xiao family treasure before dawn!"
After he said this, he felt the hand around his neck loosen suddenly, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
This Feng Shui master, nicknamed Qing Xuan Zi, used to be an idle man, making a living by cheating people in the village with his sharp tongue.
After that, he learned a few words and started to engage in more advanced scams, becoming a Feng Shui master.
They often helped bury the dead during the day, and dug up the remains in the dark at night and sold them, making money from both the living and the dead.
Perhaps he really had a gift for speaking, and he actually made a name for himself in the world.
One day, several people dressed as military officers abducted him and forced him to find the legendary "Xiao family treasure".
The legend of the Xiao family treasure has long been popular among the people. The main reason is that the Xiao family, the King of War, was a loyal follower of Emperor Gaozu who helped him establish the country. The first ancestor of the Xiao family was not only good at fighting but also good at business.
When the country was founded, the Xiao family was so rich that even the emperor had to borrow money from the first war king when he was short of money.
But somehow, as time passed, the Xiao family gradually retracted their edge, no longer showing off their wealth, and devoted themselves to guarding the border for Daqian.
That’s why there have been rumors that the Xiao family’s ancestors collected the huge amount of money, which gave rise to the term “Xiao family treasure.”
But he is just a charlatan who relies on his eloquence to deceive people! Where can he find the legendary Xiao family treasure? !
Qing Xuanzi now feels a kind of helpless feeling, like a liar encountering a robber.
On the surface, he was calm as he twirled his goat beard to check, but inwardly he was panicking, hoping to escape quickly while that damn general wasn't paying attention.
The general, who had been digging for a long time without finding the entrance to the treasure, kept circling around in circles like a headless fly.
They are actually private troops raised by the prince of Jingnan without the knowledge of the old emperor. Seeing the chaos in the world, his son was forced to be involved in the war among the heroes, and he was in urgent need of money. Recently, he has been trying to find a way to save money.
Not long ago, my son intercepted a secret letter from Long Yinwei, and only then did I know that the old emperor was chasing the Xiao family so hard just to find a jade talisman on Xiao Huaishuo.
Thinking about the fact that this place is close to southern Xinjiang, the ancestors of the Xiao family had led troops to station here for several years, and that people have recently dug up some rare treasures in this area. They concluded that this should be the legendary "Xiao family treasure".
But they searched here for a long time, and they did dig up some gold bars made during the founding years of the country, but they couldn't find the entrance to the underground palace.
The general was getting more and more anxious as he waited, his eyebrows wrinkled. He waved his hand and called someone over and asked:
"What did the people we sent to investigate say? Where is the Xiao family now?"
"General, our spies reported earlier that the exiles were nearby, so they probably haven't gone far yet."
"Hahaha! Great, great! God is on my side! It looks like each of us can be credited with a great deed this time!"
All the worries in his heart disappeared, and the general-looking man suddenly clapped his hands and laughed, and immediately ordered the people around him:
"Hahaha! That's great! The Xiao family will have endless trouble if they keep it, and it will protect us from future troubles."
"Take a team to intercept the exile team. If Xiao Huaishuo is willing to hand over the jade talisman, you will reward him with a whole body. If he refuses, bring him back and torture him severely before silencing him!"
Lin 깊 did not forget to instruct:
"If they are willing to cooperate, remember to bring back Xiao Huaishuo's head so that you and your wife can receive the reward later!"
"놆!"
"Don't just sit there, keep digging! It looks like we'll soon find the legendary 'Xiao family treasure', haha——"
"Boom-boom-boom--"
A dozen thunder cannons exploded at the same time, blowing the several hundred people who were digging the ground into pieces.
The general's excited laughter stopped abruptly, and before he could close his mouth, which was wide open due to excessive joy, the dust that was raised filled his mouth.
Then he was knocked to the ground by the huge shock wave, and fell to the ground with his eyes closed.
"Tsk... You have such a bad breath that it can stink me even from a distance!"
Su Qingning snorted disdainfully.
At the same time, more than a dozen hidden weapons flew out of Xiao Huaishuo's sleeves, instantly killing the remaining fish that were not caught by the explosives.
Su Qingning did remember that the original book mentioned that Xiao Huaishuo's initial capital came from a huge treasure buried by Xiao's ancestors.
But when the author mentioned it casually, she didn't expect that this treasure was related to the jade talisman that the Dog Emperor and his men had been looking for.
The atmosphere is so exciting, it would be a bit unreasonable not to go to the underground palace to take a look. She immediately turned around and asked Xiao Huaishuo:
"Mr. 꽬, where is your jade talisman?"
Who knew Xiao Huaishuo was even more confused than her:
"Ah? What jade talisman? I don't have it!"
