Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 233 Fortunately, my Cao family is not sick (4000)

At this point, all parties present fell into silence.

Wen Rengong naturally hopes that Wen Ren Zhaoyuan will marry, the farther the better, he does not invite Wu Liang to marry him.

But at the same time, he could also see that ever since Wen Renzhao came out of Bai Jingjing's room, he hadn't taken his words directly once. Obviously, he wouldn't listen to any of his opinions at this moment, and what he said now was nonsense. On the contrary, it will only humiliate itself.

So, it's better not to say it, and think of other ways.

And although Cao Ang and Cao Ti are worthy of Wu Liang's brothers, they will not openly interfere with Wu Liang's affairs, and this is still a private matter.

And Bai Jingjing.

The girl also looked at Wen Renzhao in amazement, and gradually a hint of imperceptible sympathy appeared in her eyes... She learned from Wen Renzhao many things that Wu Liang didn't know, and there were many things that Wen Renzhao had deepest in his heart. idea.

That's why she stopped eating, and forgave Wu Liang for a while.

Now, Bai Jingjing's mood is very complicated.

As a woman, she never thought why Wen Renzhao would make such a choice.

But as a child, she knew very well why Wen Renzhao made such a choice.

She couldn't persuade her, whether it was Wu Liang or Wen Renzhao, she didn't know how to persuade her, because even she herself was in a similar quagmire and couldn't extricate herself.

As for the rest, no one dared to interfere with Wu Liang's affairs.

After such a moment of silence.

"I'm a little tired, I'll go back first."

It was Wen Renzhao who broke the silence first, smiled at Wu Liang, saluted Cao Ang, and walked outside alone with a little tired steps.

"I'm going back first."

Wen Rengong also hurriedly saluted everyone, and followed quickly.

The father and daughter had already become incompatible with each other before, but this time the situation of the two of them has changed again, and they don't know what will happen to Wenren's family after they go back this time.

"A talented and virtuous brother..."

Watching the two go out, Cao Ang stepped up and patted Wu Liang's shoulder, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't say anything in the end.

Wu Liang turned his head but his expression was indifferent, and he changed the topic and said, "Brother Zixiu, I think the affairs in Qiancheng County are almost settled, why don't I make preparations in advance so that we can do it before tomorrow?" How about going to Naziai Cemetery?"

"What treasures are hidden in this tomb?"

Cao Ang asked curiously.

"Visiting the tomb is like drawing lots. Before entering, no one knows what is inside, let alone what will be encountered. But in my opinion, this is the charm of exploring the tomb."

Wu Liang said with a smile, "However, I have to make some things clear in advance. Although this tomb visit is not a war, it is sometimes more dangerous than a war. Brother Zixiu is a person with an important position. Before going, you must Think it through."

"Since I have encountered such an opportunity, if I don't go to see it, I'm afraid I will regret it in the future."

Cao Ang still insisted on speaking, and then looked at Cao Ting beside him and asked, "Anmin, you have visited the tomb with the talented and virtuous brother before, do you want to revisit this time?"

"I?"

Hearing this, Cao Ting immediately took a step back, shaking his head like a rattle and said again and again, "I'd better not go, there are many strange things and rules in the tomb that ordinary people don't know, professional things should be handed over." It's better for professionals to do it, we laymen will only add to the chaos if we go, so... Brother Zixiu, why don't you go at all, if you make a mistake, uncle will definitely blame me."

As a result, the more Cao Ting said that, the more Cao Ang became more curious, and immediately said, "In this case, you stay outside to support the overall situation, talented and virtuous brother, you go to prepare first, and come when you leave tomorrow Let me know."

"it is good."

Wu Liang nodded, and took Bai Jingjing and Dian Wei to bid farewell to Cao Ang and Cao Jin.

In fact, if history is a guide, Wu Liang knows that it is not a wise choice to take Cao Ang to visit the tomb.

After all, Cao Ang's identity is very special. If something happened to him in the tomb, even if Boss Cao didn't blame him on the surface, he would definitely blame him in his heart. This is not a good phenomenon.

But there are gains and losses.

Although this move is a bit risky, it can also let Cao Ang and Boss Cao know how difficult what he has done, and how irreplaceable he is, which is definitely more intuitive than through Cao Ting's dictation.

In this way, Wu Liang will gain more reliance and voice from Boss Cao and Cao Ang in the future.

Moreover, Cao Ang can be regarded as a strong man with courage and strategy.

Bringing him into the tomb is definitely not a burden, but a powerful help. If something happens to him in the tomb, there is a high probability that Wu Liang will not be able to escape. If the lights go out after death, why should he care about the following things? ...

Looking at the back of Wu Liang and others leaving.

Cao Ting suddenly sighed, and murmured with jealousy: "Oh, I really envy the talented and virtuous brother. Every time he comes out, he can not only make great achievements, but also teach all kinds of women to throw themselves into his arms." , Bai Jingjing is like this, Wen Renzhao is also like this, these are rare beauties in the world, how come I don't have such a good life as Cai Xiandi."

"You are not a strange person like talented and virtuous brother, how would you know how active these women are?"

Cao Ang hooked his shoulders, and said with some emotion, "To tell you the truth, even my elder sister is infatuated with him for no reason. For this reason, I privately encouraged him to fake his life experience to be right with my family, and my father also privately encouraged him Expressed to him the idea of ​​adopting him as a son-in-law, if he hadn't politely refused, I'm afraid it won't be long before you and I become your brother-in-law."

"There is such a thing?!"

Cao Ti's eyes instantly widened bigger than a copper bell.

"This talk is only between you and my brother, don't go out and talk nonsense."

Cao Ang reminded with a serious expression.

"It's natural."

Cao Ting nodded again and again, and then said, "No wonder when I was in Juancheng, Sister Ni'er always came to me to inquire about the talented and virtuous younger brother. Talented brother, always perfunctory and coaxing her, so it turned out to be the case... But why did talented and virtuous brother refuse? Although sister Ni'er is a bit perverse, her appearance is not inferior to that of Bai Jingjing and Wen Renzhao , is younger than these two, and his uncle regards him so highly, if he becomes our brother-in-law, he will be valued even more by uncle, he shouldn't be unable to figure it out, right?"

"You don't know, the talented and virtuous brother actually has some eccentricities."

Cao Ang lowered his voice and said.

"Why don't I know, what quirk does he have?"

Cao Ting was even more curious.

"I heard from my father that he seems to have no choice but to marry a wife... It is precisely because of this eccentricity that he dare not marry my eldest sister. I am afraid that I will miss my eldest sister's life and annoy my father and mother, so my father will not be reluctant. .”

Cao Ang said with some regret and sympathy.

"The world is so big, there are so many wonders, and there are such rare eccentricities..."

Cao Ting said with a look of surprise, "If that's the case, when I invite talented younger brothers to dinner in the future, I will definitely make my wives and concubines avoid me, so as not to cause any trouble and make it difficult for everyone to get along with each other."

"That's right. I don't know where my brother's eccentricity comes from. Fortunately, our Cao family does not have such a eccentricity. Otherwise, if it spreads, people in the world will inevitably ridicule."

Cao Ang thought it was true and nodded happily.

……

The next afternoon.

Wu Liang and the others finally returned to the ruins of the ancient city of Qidu.

Except for some Cao soldiers who stood guard outside the ruins, the Huan army was the undisputed protagonist of this operation.

Soldiers of the Tauren Army have already entered the underground tunnel through the big hole left by "Yunyang", cleared out the wreckage of "Yunyang" and many corpses, and once again opened the bronze plate used to seal the Qi Ai cemetery.

"Brother Zixiu, do you still remember the three precautions I told you earlier?"

Before entering the tomb, Wu Liang once again said to Cao Ang and the two accompanying guards.

"Naturally remember."

Cao Ang smiled relaxedly, then pointed to the two guards behind him and said, "I have personally instructed these two people, and they will never make trouble for you."

Although he didn't take tomb robbery as a child's play, he wasn't too nervous either.

Although Cao Ting told him about what happened in the tomb of King Liang Xiao a long time ago, he has followed Boss Cao in all these years, and he has never seen any thrilling scenes, so how could he take such a small tomb to heart? superior?

If he was really afraid, he wouldn't have come...

"Then I won't talk nonsense, everyone should be careful after entering."

Wu Liang nodded, and then ordered Dian Wei to go ahead and lead the battle.

He followed closely behind, followed by Bai Jingjing and Yu Ji, and Cao Ting and the two personal guards followed at the end. A group of seven entered the mausoleum along the sloping stairs.

Needless to say, there is a section of tomb passage in front.

The group arrived at the tomb room with the tombstone and puppets very smoothly.

"My lord, there seems to be something wrong here!"

As soon as he walked in, Dian Wei, who was at the front, was the first to notice the abnormality, stopped abruptly, turned around and said to Wu Liang and the others.

"What's wrong?"

Wu Liang looked over and immediately got the answer.

Originally, there were eighteen puppets in this tomb, nine on the left and right facing each other.

But at this moment, there are only sixteen standing puppets left.

However, the two puppets did not disappear, but turned into a pile of damaged wood slag and sawdust, which looked very strange.

And very coincidentally, these two puppets were broken into wood slag and sawdust.

One of them was taken as Wu Liang's puppet by Wu Liang and others when they came last time, and the other was taken as Dian Wei's puppet by them.

"This……"

Wu Liang instantly became vigilant, carefully observing other details in the tomb.

"what happened?"

Cao Ang leaned over and asked.

"So so..."

While observing, Wu Liang briefly explained the previous events to him, and then told everyone what he had observed, "This time there is no hallucination, and the puppets we used to be Jingjing and Yu Ji before have also appeared. Out of the original appearance, it looks no different from other puppets, that is to say, there is no such thing as someone who predicted our arrival 1000 years ago and cast an evil spell on us."

"However, these two puppets suddenly became like this, but it doesn't make sense..."

"I took a closer look. The wood slag and wood chips left by these two puppets are relatively small, and there are no traces of beasts gnawing on them. In addition, these puppets are fixed with stone plates and metal bars, which is not so easy. Topple over, and even if it falls accidentally, it will definitely not shatter into this shape if it falls."

"In short, from now on, everyone should be more careful. Although there is a possibility of insects in the wood, I suspect that this is caused by some kind of insects, but before you find out the specific situation, please don't take it lightly."

While speaking, Wu Liang's expression became more and more serious.

Then, under the protection of Dian Wei, he went to the side of the two piles of wood slag and sawdust for a more detailed inspection.

Bai Jingjing and Yu Ji also followed, but they just stood behind Wu Liang and waited, and did not act rashly.

Cao Ang and the two personal guards are also more disciplined, but they have not experienced the palpitating hallucination incident before, so they are naturally a little more relaxed.

……

In this way, Wu Liang confirmed his guess after coming to a closer inspection.

He used a copper dagger to pull away the wood slag and sawdust, and then found many smaller but very uniform spherical objects underneath.

These spherical objects are only the size of a small grain of rice, and they look like the feces or eggs of some small insects.

Wu Liang poked open these millet grains with the tip of the dagger again, and found that the main ingredient of this stuff seemed to be wood chips, at least with the naked eye, no other unusual ingredients were found.

So, these millet grains are more like insect droppings.

"Take out the realgar powder you carry with you. There are probably insects in this tomb, and they may still be live insects."

Wu Liang said again.

It has been about ten days since they entered last time. Although they were all affected by hallucinations at that time, it is certain that the two puppets had not yet turned into this appearance at that time.

Because Wu Liang clearly remembered that his hand had touched his own puppet at that time, and that illusion would not affect the sense of touch, so there must be no mistake.

"It's bugs again. The old man hates bugs the most."

Yu Ji wrinkled his old face and complained, but he still took off the small cloth bag containing realgar powder at his waist.

"But why only these two puppets have worms, but those puppets are safe and sound. The environment here is the same, and the materials of these puppets are also the same. The distance is so close. If you want to have worms, you should grow together, right?"

Bai Jingjing also took out the realgar, but asked with some doubts.

"I'm thinking about that too."

Wu Liang nodded, stood up and came to an undamaged puppet, and lightly tapped it twice with the copper dagger in his hand.

"Boom! Boom!"

Listening to the sound, the inside of the puppet seems to be empty!
