Vol 8 Chapter 4: the greedy beast behind the gold
Liang Jinzhu and his clan in Liangzhou are digging in full swing.
A young man protruded from the entrance of the cave, and shouted at Liang Jinzhu: "Patriarch! That Lord Yuchi from the bottom of the mountain is here."
Liang Jinzhu's face darkened: "Hmph, I know there is gold, so the court wants to grab it!" Liang Jinzhu climbed up the cave cursingly, came out fiercely, holding a shovel in his hand, and when he saw Yu Chifeng, he yelled viciously: "This It's the gold mine I discovered! It's the gold mine of our Liang people, no one can steal it! Brothers! Come here, come here!"
Immediately, young men came over with shovels and shovels and stood in a row, facing Yuchifeng fiercely.
Yu Chifeng raised his thick eyebrows. Although there are few mountain people, they are extremely fierce and strong. And he didn't want to be an enemy of the mountain people. He is a general, and he should protect the people of the Qian Dynasty, instead of facing the people of the Qian Dynasty with swords and guns.
Therefore, Yu Chifeng put down the airs of a general, and said kindly: "Patriarch Liang, don't get me wrong, the imperial court will not rob your gold mines."
Liang Jinzhu's expression improved a little when he heard this, but his eyes were still wary, especially for Yuchi Shaolang. He knew that the white-haired boy was very powerful, and there were rumors of the white-haired devil in the village.
"However, I want to remind Patriarch Liang that an expert once reminded me that there are mines in Liangzhou that cannot be mined, so I ask Patriarch Liang to think twice." Yu Chifeng clasped his fists, his expression extremely serious.
Liang Jinzhu was stunned for a while, then burst into loud laughter: "Hahaha—hahaha—" The laughing look seemed to be Yuchifeng who was superstitious.
Seeing the patriarch laughing, the clansmen on the side laughed too.
Liang Jinzhu smiled for a while, gave Bai Yuchifeng a sneer look, and waved his hand: "Keep digging!"
"Okay!" The young adults went back one after another.
Yu Chifeng was about to step forward, but was stopped by several young men.
Yuchi Feng gave Yuchi Shaolang a wink, and Yuchi Shaolang immediately raised a young man with one hand, frightening the other young men who blocked Yuchi Feng to get out of the way.
"Get out of the way!" Yuchi Shaolang shouted sharply, his sharp gaze was like a wolf king in the forest, making people shudder.
Yuchi Shaolang threw away the two youths in his hands, and the others did not dare to step forward again.
With Yuchi Shaolang clearing the way, Yuchifeng went straight into the forbidden area of the Liang clan, and saw that a mound of soil had already been piled up on the construction site ahead, and someone was lifting the soil up from the hole, everyone was excited.
Yu Chifeng hurried forward, everyone was too busy digging for gold to take care of Captain Yu Chifeng.
Yu Chifeng looked into the cave, the earth wall had been completely dug away by the Liang people, as long as the sunlight touched it, everything was shining with gold, that's right, it was gold!
And on the ground, there is a large piece of gold that has been hewed out. After working hard for a long time, their achievements are not small. One of the golden walls has been deeply sunken, and it has almost become a passage, and in the deep passage, there is still gold, as if the gold here has no end.
But the gold in the gold mine will not be such a whole wall, and it is so smooth, he feels that this is not a gold mine, but he can't say what it is.
"Father, I feel danger." Yuchi Shaolang stared at the dark burrow vigilantly, following the wolf mother gave him a special keen sense, as if he heard something, he grabbed Yuchifeng's arm, "Father, let's go, there seems to be something in there."
Yuchifeng looked at Yuchi Shaolang in surprise: "Is there something in there?"
"En. I can't dig any more!" Yuchi Shaolang suddenly became nervous, and he grabbed Yuchifeng's arm even more tightly, and even pulled it back with all his strength, "Father! That voice is getting louder and louder! Go!"
Yuchifeng felt great danger from Yuchi Shaolang's tense expression, because even the beast in the mountains, the young wolf had never shown such a tense expression.
He immediately yelled into the hole: "Patriarch Liang! Don't dig any more! It's dangerous!"
The people below the hole were trying their best to chisel out the gold, so they wouldn't listen to Yuchifeng's words.
Liang Jinzhu stopped and turned his head to look up fiercely at Yuchifeng: "Master Yuchi, listen, Liangzhou has always been governed by our mountain people, and our Liang family has been here a thousand years ago! Let us protect this place, It turned out to be a treasure left by our ancestors! We will not hand it over to the imperial court!"
Yu Chifeng was also angry on the top of the cave, if he had followed his usual temperament, he would have arrested Liang Jinzhu long ago. He tried his best to hold back his anger, and continued to persuade: "Patriarch Liang, this place is really dangerous! You can't dig any more. In this way, what you dig is yours. Don't dig the rest. Bury it properly. Our court will not Will come to snatch, you continue to guard this place."
Liang Jinzhu listened, looked at Yu Chifeng for a while, and laughed again: "Hahaha-hahaha-" It seemed to be laughing at Yuchifeng's stupidity, he didn't dig for gold, isn't he a fool? !
The others also stopped their hands and laughed together.
"Hahaha—hahaha—"
"Bang!" Suddenly, there was a muffled sound from the dug out golden passage, and Qing Zhuang who was standing at the end couldn't help getting closer to the golden wall.
"Bang!" There was another sound, and the man shouted in shock: "Everyone, stop laughing! Stop laughing! Patriarch! There is something behind this!"
Everyone stopped laughing and looked at him together. Liang Jinzhu walked into the passage in disbelief, and stood in front of the golden wall: "What nonsense? How can there be something behind the gold?!"
Liang Jinzhu also approached Jinbi.
However, the whole cave was quiet, without the slightest sound.
Seeing that everyone was quiet, Yu Chifeng lowered his voice: "Patriarch Liang! Now, as the governor of Liangzhou, I order you to stop digging! Bury this place again!" Yu Chifeng's stern voice echoed in the cave.
Liang Jinzhu gave Bai Yuchifeng a funny look: "I'll tell you too, don't talk about you, the governor! Even if your emperor comes, don't try to stop us from digging gold! Is it wrong that we dig the gold left to us by our ancestors?!"
Everyone laughed again.
"Bang!" At this moment, there was another muffled sound, which froze the smiles on everyone's faces. Everyone became quiet again.
The sound of the impact this time was exceptionally clear, and it came out along the golden passage and penetrated into everyone's ears.
Liang Jinzhu showed doubts, picked up the shovel in his hand, and looked at the golden wall in front of him incredulously: "What's behind this?" After saying that, he shoveled the shovel into the golden wall in front of him.
People in the mountains have dealt with ferocious beasts since they were young, and they are really courageous. Even if they heard the sound, they were not afraid, and there was only gold in front of them. No matter what's behind it, it can't stop them from digging for gold!
"Don't dig! Don't dig anymore—" Yuchifeng shouted anxiously at the entrance of the cave, and Yuchi Shaolang's silver pupils also widened, and he immediately grabbed Yuchifeng's arm: "They are about to come out! Dad! Go away!"
they? Yu Chifeng was puzzled and surprised at the same time, who are they?
