Chapter 185 Wan Xingmo Found the Treasure
Wan Laoer has already harnessed the plow to the ox and is ready to go to the field at any time.
"Okay, second brother, let's get started, shall we?"
"Oh, okay."
With the cow, one person is enough, so Big Boss Wan and Second Sister Wan still went to their own fields to open up the wasteland manually, which would be faster.
As the sky gradually darkened, people from the surrounding fields returned home one after another, and the Wan family began to pack up and go back.
After working for five or six days in a row, Wan Xingmo still didn't show up, and Zhao became a little impatient.
With the help of Wan Lao Da and Wan Lao Er, all the land at home has been planted. On the day the seeds were planted, it rained a moderate amount, which was a blessing from God for farmers.
Zhao was doing embroidery at home while discussing the matter with Wan Jinshu.
"Husband, Mo'er hasn't come back for several days. Should we go out and look for her?"
Wan Jinshu wiped his spear without looking up and said, "Don't worry, Mo'er is very skilled in Kung Fu. No one should be his match at this border. If he says he has something to do, let him do it. Let's not delay the child. He has been following me all the way to the border and he must be feeling bad. Don't let the child get hurt. Let him go out for a run. A grown-up child is no longer under the control of his mother."
Zhao sighed and continued her embroidery.
On the other hand, Wan Xingmo took Wang Xingwang and followed the route Wang Xingwang told him to the so-called treasure place that day.
This is in a ravine. It took most of the twists and turns to finally get down from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the ravine. Looking up from the bottom of the ravine, there is only a thin crack. No one would have thought that there would be treasure hidden underneath.
The terrain of the border is very peculiar, with criss-crossing gullies everywhere formed by years of weathering and rain erosion. People who are not familiar with this place are very likely to fall into the gullies when walking at night.
Wan Xingmo looked around and finally found a pagoda shape made of stones, but it was covered with a lot of loess, so it took some effort.
Wan Xingmo was not in a hurry to find the entrance, but woke up Wang Xingwang.
Wang Xingwang was carried all the way here by Wan Xingmo like a sack, and he has been in a coma ever since.
Being awakened by Wan Xingmo at this time, he was still a little confused. When he saw Wan Xingmo's face clearly, a hint of fear flashed in his eyes.
"I'm still alive? Did you really find this place?" Wang Xingwang looked around and found the mark he had made, a stone tower.
His mind immediately became active. Now that he was here, would he have a chance to kill this guy?
Wang Xingwang thought about the mechanism he had set up at the entrance to the treasure, and a sense of pleasure surged in his heart.
He pointed to a hole that was buried in the dirt and was only the size of a human head, and said to Wan Xingmo, "That's the entrance to the treasure. You just need to clean the dirt at the hole and you can get in. There's a big cave inside."
Wan Xingmo glanced in the direction of Wang Xingwang's finger, and sure enough, as he said, there was a small hole there. It was pitch black inside and nothing could be seen.
But Wan Xingmo didn't even lift his feet.
He grabbed Wang Xingwang from the ground and threw him directly towards the cave entrance.
Wang Xingwang was so frightened by Wan Xingmo's unconventional approach that his heart almost jumped out of his throat.
"Help! You said you wouldn't kill me, but you didn't keep your word."
Wan Xingmo snorted coldly: "I didn't ask for your life, I just asked you to explore the way for me. If you were honest, you would definitely not die. It's a pity that you are seeking your own death, so you can't blame me."
As soon as Wan Xingmo finished speaking, there was a bang, and Wang Xingwang's body hit the earth wall at the entrance of the cave. Then his body slid down the wall and fell on the yellow land just below the entrance of the cave. The accident happened at this moment, and the land collapsed directly. Wang Xingwang's body fell into the cave below along with the soil, and soon he let out a heart-wrenching scream.
Wan Xingmo had no expression on his face as he slowly and coldly approached the cave entrance. He saw that Wang Xingwang's body had been pierced into a hedgehog by the trap he had set, and he died with blood spitting out of his mouth and his eyes open.
If Wan Xingmo had really believed what Wang Xingwang said just now and went straight forward to explore the cave entrance, then he would definitely be the one who fell in.
Wang Xingwang was really vicious and meticulous. He dug a large pit one person deep just below the cave entrance. At the bottom of the pit were a bunch of sharp knives. Wang Xingwang was really willing to spend a lot of money. These knives didn't look cheap either. They were still flashing after being placed in the pit for several years. It turned out that the person who got the treasure was willful.
In order to ensure that Wang Xingwang did not cause any more trouble, Lu Wanxingmo was extra careful next.
Without Wang Xingwang as a pathfinder, Wan Xingmo used his sword to explore the way with every step he took. He didn't breathe a sigh of relief until all the soil blocking the cave entrance was removed, revealing the dark cave inside.
Wan Xingmo took out a fire starter from his arms, blew it up, bent down and entered the cave.
The terrain inside the cave is much lower than outside, but the cave has obviously been repaired by humans. There is a gentle slope from the cave entrance. The temperature inside the cave is also higher than outside, but the water vapor contained inside is also more than outside. When entering the cave, it does not feel as dry as outside.
Wan Xingmo used a tinder to illuminate the surrounding environment as he walked. Not long after he walked, he found a torch on the wall.
He quickly used a tinder to light the torch on the wall. With the illumination of the torch, he could see the surrounding scene more clearly.
He was standing on a slope at this time, with solid loess walls on both sides. It can be seen that the alley on the slope was formed naturally, and there were no traces of human excavation on the loess walls on both sides.
The soil on the ground is very loose and doesn't look like it's been trampled often, which means that few people have set foot here.
Wan Xingmo walked for a while and was startled by a corpse on the wall.
Suddenly, a corpse was nailed to the dark wall of the alley. Because the humidity here is greater than outside, the corpse has already rotted. However, judging from the clothes, it should be a border guard.
Wan Xingmo was used to seeing corpses, and he was caught off guard just now and was frightened. After he recovered, he held a torch and took a closer look. He found that there was an arrow stuck in the chest of the corpse, and the person was nailed to the wall by the arrow, which showed how powerful the arrow was.
Judging from the degree of decay of the corpse, it must have been several years old. The corpse was now wrapped in clothes and had become a skeleton.
Wan Xingmo did not stay for too long, but carefully walked around the corpses and continued to move forward. Along the way, he found a lot of arrows dropped on the ground, a lot of arrows stuck on the wall, and occasional skeletons. It can be seen that a fierce battle must have taken place here at that time, or a mechanism was triggered.
However, the fact that Wang Xingwang was able to take money out of there showed that all the dangers here had been eliminated and the mechanism had been triggered by him. Those dead people might have been brought in by him.
Wan Xingmo walked inside for a quarter of an hour and saw about fifty or sixty corpses along the way.
Suddenly, a sound of flowing water came from inside. Wan Xingmo's heart moved, and he immediately quickened his pace towards the sound of water.
After walking up the slope, there was actually a natural cave. Looking up, one could not see the top of the cave at all. It was pitch black inside. Even though Wan Xingmo had good eyesight, he could not see where the top of the cave was. This shows that the height of the cave must be quite high.
He walked forward for another half a minute following the sound of water, and unexpectedly, there were pieces of rocks under his feet. Some of them were wet and slippery, but soon he saw an underground river.
He shone the torch and found that the river was not too deep and the water was clear enough to see the bottom. The river was not very wide either, only about five or six feet wide.
Wan Xingmo jumped lightly and reached the other side of the river.
There is a high platform on the other side of the river, and a small temple is built on the platform. The deity enshrined in the temple is actually a monster with a human head and a snake body, not Nuwa.
There were dozens of large boxes scattered around the temple, and none of them were locked.
Wan Xingmo walked over and opened the box with his sword. Under the light of the fire, the jewels inside shone brightly.
Wan Xingmo remained calm as he checked each box one by one. Every box was filled with jewels.
Even though Wan Xingmo was not someone who was tempted by money, he gasped when he saw so much money.
No wonder the leader of the Qingniu Gang was determined to get Wang Xingwang out of jail at all costs. Such a large sum of money is more than enough to support an army of tens of thousands of people for several years.
Wang Xingwang was indeed cautious and cunning, an old fox. He did not take back such a large sum of money, but kept it here. It is estimated that there is no safer place outside than here. After all, who would have thought that there would be a treasure here?
Wan Xingmo closed the boxes one by one and took out only a few gold bars from them. He wanted to secretly buy a piece of land as his base first.
He came out of the cave and sealed it back up. After everything was settled, he took out all the money at once.
On the other side, the unlucky guy in the Wan family's shop came to cause trouble again, and this time he actually used his brain.
