Chapter 350 Are you afraid?

Outside, a man in gray was also puzzled, "Sir, why don't we just rush in and search? What if they are really hiding in there?"

The man in black frowned, "Did you see the gold embroidered lantern hanging at the door? This manor must belong to some official, they shouldn't be inside."

Chaihu: This lantern is so pretty. It would be a shame to take it down. Since the owner hasn’t told me to, I’ll just hang it up.

Pomegranate: I didn’t know that officials had to hang gold-embroidered lanterns at the entrance of their manors.

Hu Zhen found it very strange, so he led the team himself and patrolled the village carefully. He found nothing unusual and was about to go back.

"Who is it!" Zuo Cheng suddenly shouted.

All the torches illuminated the place where Zuo Cheng pointed.

Hu Zhen took a quick look and saw a man lying under the earthen wall covered with weeds. As the firelight got closer, he could see the dog hole behind the man and his bloody face.

"Wu Ping?!"

Shi Liu didn't care about where she slept, and the hot water bottle kept her warm, so she slept soundly.

But she was woken up. She yawned dazedly, covering her mouth and looking at Fu Dong who was slightly bent over. "What's wrong?"

Fu Dong said: "I shouldn't have woken the girl up, but I think it's better to tell her immediately.

Fifteen minutes ago, someone knocked on our door and said that the government was secretly investigating a case and wanted to arrest some criminal. Of course, we didn't see any criminal. After Chai Zhuangtou said this, the plainclothes officers left without going in to search.

Then Brother Hu led his men to patrol around and found the seriously injured person who came in through the dog hole. It turned out to be Wu Ping. "

A civilian police officer arrests a wanted criminal? Wu Ping?

A big question mark popped up in Shi Liu's mind. She threw off the quilt and got out of bed. "How is Wu Ping now?"

"There are two sword wounds on his body, but fortunately neither is fatal. We have medicine with us, and Brother Hu is bandaging him." Fudong quickly brought out outer clothes, and after Shi Liu put them on, he wrapped himself in a thick cloak.

Then he walked outside.

Wu Ping was placed next door to where Hu Zhen and his family lived. He injured his arms and back, and the wounds were treated, bandaged and applied with medicine. He gritted his teeth and endured the pain.

Although he was extremely tired, his spirits were extremely high and he persisted.

Soon, he heard the sound of Pomegranate and looked towards the door.

"how's it going?"

Hu Zhen stepped back and said, "The medicine has been applied. It's nothing serious. Just take good care of yourself for a while."

Shi Liu nodded and asked everyone else to leave, leaving only Hu Zhen and Fu Dong in the room.

She looked at Wu Cheng, who had called her "girl" and then lowered his eyes and dared not look at her any more, and asked directly, "What's going on? Why are there civilian police chasing you? How did you become a wanted criminal? Where are Wu Jin and the others? Why are you alone?"

Wu Ping subconsciously said: "They are not from the government, don't worry, girl—"

As he said this, he felt that it was not right to say this, so he stopped talking and pursed his lips tightly.

Pomegranate stared at him without saying a word.

The room was quiet, and there was an inexplicable sense of oppression.

After a long time, Wu Ping finally couldn't stand Shi Liu's gaze anymore, and looked up at her, "Girl, I..."

"If you're worried about getting me into trouble, maybe I should call those people back now and tell them that I helped them catch the criminal?"

Shi Liu's words gave Wu Ping a startle.

Yes, the girl saved him again. Unless they were willing to be taken back by those people, otherwise, it would have caused trouble for the girl. Rather than falling into the hands of those people and being tortured to speak, or rather dying to bear the secret, that secret...

Might as well tell the girl.

But telling the girl would also bring disaster to her...

Wu Ping looked conflicted.

Shi Liu saw it clearly and his mind was working fast. Hu Zhen said that those plainclothes runners were very strange and did not look like real runners. Wu Ping also said that they were indeed not government officials.

So who are these people and why do they want to arrest Wu Ping?
Everything was fine before, but she went to Wujia Village again, so Wu Ping and the others wanted to leave, fearing that they would cause trouble for her...

It couldn't be Liu Baode's people. Who else could Wu Ping and his gang have offended? Who else could they have offended?

An idea suddenly flashed through his mind, and Shi Liu suddenly paused, then raised his eyebrows, "That Five Internal Organs Secret Record... could it be true?"

Hearing this, Wu Ping's heart skipped a beat. This girl is really smart! She figured it out so quickly.

"If I say yes, and this Five Zang Secret Record is nothing but a treasure that is rich enough to rival a country, would you be afraid, young lady?" He looked at me with burning eyes.

Shi Liu met Wu Ping's burning gaze and understood his deep meaning from his eyes.

If she says she is not afraid, then Wu Ping will tell her the secret.

If she said she was afraid, Wu Ping would definitely leave and ignore life and death.

Shi Liu really didn't expect that there really was such a treasure, a treasure that was worth enough to rival a country. Who wouldn't be excited after hearing about it?
Otherwise, Liu Baode would not have attacked Wujia Village without thinking twice just because he heard it.

So, those people came for this treasure?

They are not from the government, but they want to track down this treasure. Who are they? Are they from the underworld?

Somehow, Shi Liu saw a hint of expectation in Wu Ping's eyes.

Wu Ping expects her not to be afraid?
To be honest, of course Pomegranate is afraid.

She has a family and a soft spot.

Who knows how many of these people there are? They dare to pretend to be public servants. They are very bold. Who knows how cruel they can be to achieve their goals?
There are only a dozen people around her now, including Hu Zhen. Even if all the people in her family and the farm who can fight are put together, there are only seventy or eighty people.

With such a small number of people, even if she knew where the treasure was, would she dare to look for it?

Others want money but not life, but she still wants her life.

But at this point, Shi Liu naturally couldn't just stand by and watch Wu Ping and the others die without helping them and instead pushed them out to die.

Since she wants to protect them, she can't be ignorant of everything.

At least, she has to know who those people are, right?

Taking a deep breath, Shi Liu said slowly: "Tell me everything you can tell me."

Wu Ping also breathed a sigh of relief. Compared to those people or taking this secret to the underworld, he would certainly prefer to tell the girl.

The girl has done them a great favor, so it's not a bad idea to give this treasure to her.

The servants of Princess Yan were his grandfather and his men, not them.

Nearly a hundred years have passed, and the Princess of Yan may have been reborn twice.

They have been protecting this treasure for a long time, but it is of no use.

Either it remains buried and is dug up by someone, or it becomes capital for those people to restore their country?
He felt that the present Jin Dynasty was a country of peace and prosperity, with a benevolent emperor, no worse than the Chao Dynasty.

If the Dynasty had not run out of luck, how could it have been destroyed?
I guess this is also the reason why King Yan is unwilling to hand over the treasure?
Although those people are from the DPRK, they are now nothing more than traitors who have no legitimate reason to do so.

Taking a deep breath, Wu Ping looked at Shi Liu and said firmly, "Okay, I'll tell you everything, girl."
