The lucky girl in the village has a good way of making money.
Chapter 379 Where is the treasure?
Chapter 379 Where is the treasure?
Just when Ke Ziqing and others were getting very impatient, a group of people at the foot of the mountain finally set off after eating and drinking and headed up the mountain.
After reaching the top of the mountain, Shi Liu took out a piece of worn parchment from his bosom, looked down at the parchment, then looked up and looked around, and finally locked on a direction, "Go this way."
Ma Chun led the escort team in this direction, but he suddenly felt suspicious.
Looking for medicinal herbs?
The thing Miss Li just took didn't look like a blueprint of any medicinal material.
That looks like parchment?
What is drawn on parchment?
Thinking of the rumors he had heard while escorting goods, Ma Chun's heart began to beat fast.
Why would someone spend a lot of money to hire someone to find medicinal herbs? Could they be looking for some treasure?
In this case, it is not difficult to explain.
So, they are here to look for treasure?
Ma Chun glanced covertly at Zuo Cheng and others following behind him, then looked at the number of bodyguards on his side. His mind was working rapidly and no one knew what he was thinking.
After walking for a while, there was another fork in the road ahead. Pomegranate stopped, took out the parchment and studied it carefully, then pointed to the road on the left and said, "Go here."
This mysterious look and the parchment that appeared twice attracted the escorts' attention.
Then one of the escorts whispered to the person next to him, "Hey, brother, what are we looking for? We have been walking for half a day and only saw trees and grass, but no medicinal herbs."
Wu Cheng curled his lips when asked, "Listen to our girl, you will know later."
This look of not being able to say more makes people feel even more itchy.
The escorts were itching to do something, and the people who were following them in the dark were also itching and excited.
The Shen family treasure that has been buried for nearly a hundred years is finally going to see the light of day.
An hour later, after climbing over two mountains and descending into a mountain stream, the pomegranate group finally stopped.
The exotic flowers and plants on the other side of the river emit a faint fragrance that blocks out the sky.
The clear stream in front of me flows gently, tinkling and donging, like the sound of a piano.
The end of the stream flows into a cave. There is a dense forest above the cave, which gives it an eerie feeling. The dark and gaping entrance of the cave also looks particularly mysterious.
Pomegranate sat down to rest, took out the parchment again and looked at it, then uttered excitedly, "This is it!"
Ma Chun and others looked at the dark cave with her, and their expressions became puzzled.
After resting for a while, Shi Liu stood up and strode towards the cave with Hu Zhen and others.
To enter the cave, you have to go down into the stream. At this time, no one cares whether their shoes and socks get wet.
Pomegranate stepped into the stream without hesitation, wading step by step towards the cave entrance, while the others followed closely behind.
Soon, everyone was submerged in the dark cave.
A rustling sound came from the woods behind him, and soon several men in gray appeared from the woods and filled the bank of the stream.
Bending over, he scooped up a handful of stream water and drank a big gulp. Ke Ziqing looked at the cave with excitement in his eyes. "Listen to my orders later. After you see the treasure, kill all these people!"
In order to avoid making a sound that would echo, the men in gray all nodded in response.
Ke Ziqing shook the water off his hands, went into the water first, and walked towards the cave.
The cave entrance looked pitch black from the outside, but after entering I realized that it wasn't actually dark inside.
There were small holes on the cave wall, reflecting an inexplicable light. Although the cave was not as bright as outside, it was still possible to see things. After walking along the stream for about a quarter of an hour, the stream came under a stone wall and could no longer be passed. However, there was a stone chamber on the right. After going up, there was a winding corridor.
Looking at the several corridors in front of him, Ke Ziqing squatted down and carefully checked which one was the correct one.
Soon, he found wet footprints on the rightmost path. Ke Ziqing smiled and walked in.
After walking for a while, they saw a huge stone chamber, but it was empty and there was nothing in it.
Ke Ziqing was not discouraged and continued to move forward.
Soon, another stone chamber came into view, but this one was smaller than the previous one, covered with moss, and still empty.
Walking further, Ke Ziqing suddenly stopped and listened carefully, as if he heard cheers and excitement coming from the depths.
He couldn't help but clench his fists and quickened his pace, "Hurry!"
Finally, after passing through a long corridor, I saw a stone chamber in front of me full of people, gesturing excitedly at boxes.
Ke Ziqing's heart was so excited that it almost flew out.
"Haha! So it's here!"
Ke Ziqing shouted loudly and led his men to surround the stone chamber.
Everyone in the stone chamber was shocked when they heard the noise. They turned around and saw so many people following them. Their faces changed drastically.
Zuo Cheng asked hurriedly: "Who are you?"
Ke Ziqing laughed, "We have been following you since Damingfu. We have been following you all the way. Tell me, who are we?"
Zuo Cheng's pupils shrank, "You guys."
"Okay! Thank you for leading the way. Now, please step back so I can give you a way out!" Ke Ziqing interrupted impatiently.
The men in gray all drew their swords, and they were trapped in the stone chamber again, with no way to retreat.
Shi Liu gritted his teeth unwillingly, and finally said, "We will withdraw, and you have to promise to let us go."
"Of course." Ke Ziqing smiled, but he was thinking in his heart: It's enough for them to know about the treasure, but how can we let the others who have seen it get out alive?
After hesitating for a moment, Shi Liu waved his hand, and a group of people slowly retreated from the stone chamber, looking at the men in gray vigilantly.
Seeing them coming out, Ke Ziqing was not in a hurry to silence them. He strode into the stone chamber. Looking at the wooden boxes in the stone chamber, his face flushed and he was extremely excited.
"stop!"
There was a noise outside and Ke Ziqing turned around.
A man in gray shouted, "Sir, they have run into that corridor and the door is blocked!"
"What?" Ke Ziqing's face changed drastically. "What do you do for a living?"
The man in gray felt aggrieved, but who knew that the sturdy man would suddenly attack? The corridor was narrow and they had no room to maneuver. There were quite a few of them, and they swarmed into the corridor like a beehive, just like they had rehearsed. Before they could chase in, a stone door fell down, blocking the way out.
When Ke Ziqing saw that the corridor was closed, he quickly asked his men to find a mechanism to open the door. He then went back into the stone chamber and asked people to open all the boxes to have a look.
When the box was opened, it was found to be filled with stones and weeds!
Ke Ziqing's face looked extremely ugly. Were they being cheated?
"Sir, we have searched everywhere but couldn't find the mechanism. Perhaps the mechanism to open the door is outside?"
Can't open the door? Are they going to be trapped inside?
Ke Ziqing was furious, "Break the door! Break the door!"
But how could such a heavy stone door be smashed open?
