Jinyi Town Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 32
More than 100 corpses were stacked beside the pit.

Liu Da inspected the bones carefully, and took a deep breath: "These people were hacked to death with random knives. Hundreds of people were slaughtered at one time. This method is very vicious."

In the pit, He Liu continued to dig down: "Boom~" His pick hit another hard object and made a crisp sound.

He Liu asked the wrestlers to clean it up, and it turned out to be an iron gate placed on the ground!
On the iron door, hung a strange big iron lock.This iron lock looks to be the size of a human head.

Lao Hu went down into the pit with the innocence box on his back.

He Liu took out a bunch of weird keys from the innocence box.He picked one out and thrust it into the keyhole of the big iron lock.After a while, the iron lock popped open.

The three wrestlers worked together to open the iron gate.

Under the iron gate, there is a big hole with no bottom.The entrance of the cave can accommodate two or three people in and out at the same time.Outside the entrance of the cave, there is also a hanging ladder.

He Liu lit a torch and looked down—where can he see the bottom?He threw the torch down again.It took a while to hear the sound of the "boom" torch falling to the bottom of the cave.

Outside the pit, the Taibao men looked at each other in blank dismay.

Liu Da, the governor of Beisi, seemed to have figured something out, and he clapped his hands: "Yes! Think about it, how many people would it take to transport more than 500 million taels of cash? The people who were killed at the entrance of the cave must have been transported by Ding Wang. People of silver! Ding Wang was afraid that these people would reveal the secret of the treasure place, so he asked someone to kill them at the entrance of the cave!"

He Liu shouted to the Taibao men outside the pit: "I'm going to go down this big pit now! I don't know you Taibao masters, who wants to go down with me?"

The twelve eunuchs all frowned.

There may be layers of institutions where more than 500 million taels of silver are buried.No one wants to go down to die.

Liu Da, the governor of Beizhen, shouted at He Liu: "Lao Liu, we don't understand the matter of treasure hunting. I'd better trouble you, go down to the bottom of the cave to find out the truth!"

Lao Hu lowered his voice, and said to He Liu: "Well, those people outside, this is to make you a daredevil!"

He Liu smiled and said, "I'm an official in Jinyi, this is what I do for a living. If they don't go down, let's go down!"

He Liuming wrestler found two ropes as thick as a child's arm, and tied them around his and Lao Hu's waists.

He Liu ordered: "I will pull the rope down three times, and you will pull us up!"

"Yes, Master Six."

He Liu went down into the cave first.He holds a torch in his left hand and a hanging ladder in his right hand.

Lao Hu followed closely.

The two of them walked down more than ten feet deep, and then they reached the bottom of the cave.

There are two iron doors at the bottom of the cave.

In the middle of the iron gate, there is an iron gossip on the left and right sides.These two iron gossips seem to be able to rotate.

Old Hu said: "Isn't this a gossip and heart-to-heart lock?"

He Liu agreed: "It should be Naoshizi. The gossip-connected hidden lock is true and the other is false. Only when the real lock is turned to the designated position can the hidden lock hidden in the door be opened. If you choose the wrong gossip, or turn it in the wrong direction—— There may be many poisonous arrows and hidden weapons on both sides of the iron gate, all of which will hit us both."

Lao Hu carefully looked at the iron gossip on the left and right sides.Around the gossip, there are eight directions marked Qian, Zhen, Kan, Gen, Kun, Xun, Li, and Dui.

Lao Hu frowned: "Lao Liu. Two gossips add up to sixteen directions. We only have a one-sixteenth chance of getting the right gossip and the right direction! I think it's better to let the wrestlers outside Come in and ask them to try it out. No matter how bad your luck is, fifteen dead people will always be able to open this door! If fifteen lives are exchanged for tens of thousands of silver, even if Commander Lu finds out, he won’t feel he’s losing money!”

He Liu shook his head: "Brothers Paoze are all living in Jinyiwei. The lives of warriors are also fate. Let's take a closer look."

The two lingered in front of the iron gate for half an hour.The Taibao men above seemed to be unable to wait any longer, and they sent a warrior down into the cave.

"My lords, Envoy Liu Zhenfu and Envoy He Zhenfu asked me to ask you, is there any money here?"

He Liu pointed to the iron gate: "Go and report to the two eunuchs and tell us that we are blocked by an iron gate!"

Lux led the way.

Old Hu thought brokenly: "Is the gossip on the left is true, or is the gossip on the right?"

He Liu didn't answer, and after a while, he shouted: "The one on the left is fake! The one on the right is also fake! The mechanism that actually opens the door—here it is!"

On the lower right corner of the door, there is an inconspicuous bump.

He Liudao: "If I'm not mistaken, these two gossips are used by Ding Wang to mislead others! Whether you turn the left one or the right one, hidden weapons will come out from both sides of the door!"

After He Liu finished speaking, he pressed the protrusion.

"Boom~Boom~"

The two iron doors popped open automatically!
He Liu and Lao Hu entered the iron gate.

The eyes of both of them are straight!

Inside the iron gate was a huge secret room.This secret room is probably half the size of Taicang!

In the secret room, there are neatly stacked rows of silver locks and gold locks, layer by layer.

Old Hu stammered and asked He Liu: "Lao, Lao Liu, is this the treasure hidden by Ding Wang?"

He Liu picked up a gold key and weighed it in his hand: "It should be!"

He Liu casually stuffed the gold key into Lao Hu's hand: "You and I went down to the cave and were born like this, this money is for buying wine to scare you!"

With so many treasures placed here, the loss of a twelve tael gold scorpion is harmless.

He Liu and Lao Hu climbed the hanging ladder to the ground.

He Liu dusted off the dirt on his body, and said to Liu Da: "Commissioner Liu Zhen, the five million taels of silver should all be in the secret room under this cave! Let the brothers go down and move the silver up!"

Liu Da was surprised and said, "Lao Liu, are you joking? Ding Wang's treasure - found it?"

He Liu nodded: "How dare I joke about such a big matter?"

"Good! Good! Good!" Liu Dayi said three good things in a row.

Liu Da said to He Er: "In order to avoid unnecessary troubles in the future, we will go to Fusi in the south and north to move 100 people each to move money. What does Commander He want?"

Nan and Beizhen Fusi have always been at odds.Any party going to move money alone will be questioned by the other party afterwards.

Liu Da and He Er each selected a hundred men.

Liu Da said loudly: "Take off your official uniform! Only a pair of filthy trousers are left! After taking off, you can go down this cave! I'm ugly as I said before, every cent of the silver under this cave belongs to the court, the emperor! Who If you dare to hide one or two, I will let his head fall!"

Everyone took orders and went down into the cave.

Ingot after ingot of silver and gold was sent to the ground.

In addition to gold and silver zizi, there are also some agates, precious stones, and jade articles.There is also a large wooden box.

The gold and silver piled up like a hill.He Liu didn't sleep all night last night.He simply lay down beside Yinshan and took a nap.

After an unknown amount of time, He Liu felt someone patting his shoulder.He rubbed his eyes—it was already dark.

He Liu asked Liu Da: "Associate Liu Zhen, have you moved yet?"

Liu Da nodded: "This cave can only accommodate one person with silver. After moving for a day, half of the gold and silver left in the secret room of the cave have not seen the light of day!"
