Zhang Wenyuan frowned and looked towards the top of the mountain.
"It must be the sound of rocks cracking under the sun..."
Could it be that the mine is inside this mountain, so they can hear it so clearly?
They were now getting closer to the two mines, and would only hear more mining noises.
"The rocks exploded in the sun? How could it make such a loud noise?"
The palace guards were full of suspicion.
The sun was too strong, and the rocks were indeed cracked by the sun, but it didn't make such a big noise.
And there were so many sounds in succession, how could so many rocks be cracked by the sun?
It would be better to just say that someone is knocking rocks on the top of the mountain.
Zhang Wenyuan raised his hand and rubbed his nose awkwardly.
"I'm just guessing..."
When he thought about it carefully, he felt that this reason was indeed a bit unreliable.
What if we can still hear the sound of mining at night? What will we do then?
Chen Yong has already set his sights on those mines, and they will find out sooner or later.
"Stop—"
The "bang bang" sound was heard more than ten times, and then suddenly stopped.
Everyone looked at each other, their eyes full of confusion.
Not long after the gunfire stopped, everyone saw Shen Yong flying back over their heads carrying a box.
Zhang Wenyuan frowned and looked at the box in Shen Yong's hand, his pupils trembling in shock.
How come Chen Yong is so fast?
In less than half an hour, he brought back a box of gold from the gold mine?
Zhang Wenyuan looked up at the top of the mountain.
It was such a long distance that he couldn't reach the top of the mountain in half an hour.
Ji Yongjia looked at the box in Shen Yong’s hand with confusion, and then looked at Zhang Wenyuan’s shocked eyes.
His heart skipped a beat.
It seemed that Zhang Wenyuan knew what Shen Yong was holding.
He fell behind Zhang Wenyuan again. Now that Zhang Wenyuan and Shen Yong were so close, he was still wandering around the periphery, not even knowing what Shen Yong was doing outside.
Ji Yongjia's eyes flickered slightly, and he moved to Zhang Wenyuan's side without leaving any trace, and asked softly,
"Brother Zhang, what is that in Boss Shen's hand?"
Zhang Wenyuan dodged and lowered his eyelids, pulling his lips into a smile.
"How would I know what Boss Shen has? I've always been with you guys."
I know he can't tell me.
Besides, he was just guessing, who knew whether Shen Yong's box contained gold or silver.
But there are only gold mines and silver mines over the mountain, either gold or silver.
"Really?" Ji Yongjia glanced at Zhang Wenyuan indifferently.
It seems that he has to make plans for himself and can't always follow Zhang Wenyuan.
Ji Yongjia turned his head and looked at Lu Man who was picking up firewood not far away...
Why don't he go over and help his cousin and get closer to her?
Zhang Wenyuan looked at Ji Yongjia's strange tone and frowned slightly.
Just as he was about to speak, he saw Ji Yongjia walking towards Lu Man.
Zhang Wenyuan raised his eyebrows slightly and chuckled silently...
......
"Mom, the sisters-in-law have enough firewood."
Chen Yong arrived at the resting place, looked at the pile of firewood on the ground, turned around and shouted to the people in the woods.
It doesn't take so much firewood to make soup.
When the women of the Shen family heard Shen Yong's shout, they immediately raised their legs and walked back.
Before Ji Yongjia reached Lu Man, he saw that Lu Man had already gone back with the women of the Shen family.
He stood there helplessly, looking at Lu Man's back with reluctance.
My cousin used to be very nice to him, but now she hasn’t said a word to him for so long.
Is it because he always looked down on Chen Yong in his words before?
You can't blame him for that.
Among all the children of noble families and meritorious officials in the capital, who can look down on Chen Yong?
Doesn’t every father like to say this when scolding his son: “Don’t learn from that playboy Chen Yong.”
How could he possibly have a good impression of Chen Yong after hearing such words so often?
Who would have thought that Shen Yong hid so deeply.
It's really unbelievable that such a capable person could pretend to be a coward for so many years.
Ji Yongjia sighed helplessly, turned around silently and followed the others to look for food...
......
"Seventh Brother, this box..."
Madam Shen put down the firewood in her hand, and when she lowered her head, she saw the small box that Shen Yong had placed on the ground.
The box looked rather green, with some strange symbols written on it.
It looks a bit old, but also looks new. Is it an old model?
Lao Qi just went to the mountain. Could it be that he got it from the mine?
When Lu Man heard what Old Lady Shen said, she immediately looked up.
“Eh~”
"Seventh brother, did you pick up a box from the mountain?"
Cheng Suihua raised her eyelids and looked at the box.
"Isn't there an antique in here?"
There are many graves of dignitaries buried in the deep mountains and old forests.
Seeing that this box is sealed so well, there might be some valuable treasure inside.
Qin Qinghui and a few others who were sorting wild vegetables nearby heard them talking about the box, and immediately put down the wild vegetables in their hands and gathered over.
Seven pairs of curious eyes stared at the box, waiting for Shen Yong to open it.
Shen Yong grinned,
"I didn't pick this up, it's my master's unique hidden weapon."
"A unique hidden weapon!?" Everyone stared at Chen Yong with eyes wide open in shock.
Lu Man was particularly interested in special weapons and immediately urged,
"What unique hidden weapon is that? Show it to us!"
