997: The location of the Treasury

After speaking, Xu Cheng left.

The village elder looked at his back from afar, and after thinking about it, he asked, "Do you have any difficulties?" Why else you wouldn't be here? ”

Xu Cheng looked at the villagers who were planting in the simple way under the mountain, looked at it again, and said, "It's nothing, if you need money, tell me if you have difficulties." ”

If you can help, you can help.

The village chief said to him: "Whether you want it or not, I will hand over the things of the Xu family to you, your father's qualifications are dull, not everyone can learn the Lost Trace Boxing, so he learned other calligraphy, but the Xu family can be born as a thousand-year-old dart game family, walking the rivers and lakes, naturally has its heritage and martial arts, this way is the Lost Trace Boxing, it is the most quintessential practice of the Xu family." ”

"Then I already will." Xu Cheng Road.

"Come with me." As he spoke, the village chief took the lead in walking away with a cane.

Xu Cheng saw him walking towards the entrance of the village and went deep in, so he had no choice but to follow.

Following the river flowing along the waterfall, Xu Cheng followed the village chief to the so-called 'Xu Mound'!

It turns out that as the children said, this area is full of cemeteries!

Similar to the tombstones of the ancient period, there are no names, and some white bones are exposed, and there is a large area of white bones around, Xu Cheng conservatively estimates that the white bones of people here are at least more than a few thousand.

"What are these?" He asked curiously about the white bones under his feet.

"All of them are those who have been looking for Xujia Village, in fact, there is no Xujia Village at all, what is here is just the treasure house left by the Xu family, some of them wander here to find, there are always encounters with each other and then fight, you see those corpses and bones, most of them are the corpses left by the five major families back then, and there are also people like the later Lone Ranger who are looking for the treasure house."

"Didn't the five major families ransack the Xu family? Is there any? Xu Cheng asked curiously.

"The Xu family has been walking the rivers and lakes for generations, how can they put all the background at home? Naturally, there must be a treasure trove, each generation of the Xu family, running all over the world, seeing countless treasures and antiques of various guests, their treasure troves will definitely attract a lot of rangers or those clans want to find out, after all, as those rich officials escort the famous dart line of valuables, if there is no power, how can it be mixed? In the past dynasties, the power of the Xu family was very large, to what extent? The rivers and lakes other than the bureaucrats have their eyeliner and sphere of influence, and it is really difficult to rob the dart, otherwise it is not a thousand-year-old dart family. ”

Xu Cheng chuckled: "I didn't expect that I still have such a great background at home, it turns out that I am also a man with a background, eh, it seems that my life experience is rich and colorful in the future." ”

"At that time, if it weren't for the fact that the royal family began to be poor and had no money, they would not have started on the dart game, eh, behind the five major families, in fact, with the permission of the imperial court, they began to clean all the points of the dart game on the grounds that they were colluding with foreign enemies, and almost uprooted all the forces of the Xu family and the Xu family's brother-in-law. After the Xu family fell, this place became the target of everyone's search, all rushing for the treasures and those martial arts books inside. The village chief said: "That's why this has become Xu Mound, the place where these bones are buried." ”

Xu Cheng frowned: "Then is there a treasure of the Xu family here?" ”

The village chief smiled: "If not, what am I doing here?" ”

Xu Cheng: "Old man, didn't you think about getting this treasure and living a more comfortable life?" ”

The village chief sighed: "I am actually a slave, a descendant of the Xu family, the old lady sees my talent and qualifications, cultivates me, teaches me to be a man, treats me like a parent, what he gave me is what this life is a slave is a desire for luxury, he said to me, every generation of the Xu family will always have a generation of green and yellow, he is afraid of ruining the things left by the ancestors of the Xu family, I must take care of it, he bypassed the Xu family's heirs to entrust me, that is absolute trust in me, how can I do villain behavior?" ”

Xu Cheng sighed in his heart: "Feudalism kills people." ”

There is indeed a huge gap between the feudal class in people's hearts, it seems that morality and faith are stuck there, and some people are born with the idea that they are slaves and should have the life of slaves, and they have never had any idea of changing or questioning, and they feel that it is blasphemy against the gods.

"Do you know what's here, old man?"

The village chief shook his head: "I don't even know how to get in." ”

"Then how can you be sure that there is a treasure trove in it?" Xu Cheng was speechless: "It's hard to know that you have been deceived for hundreds of years." ”

"It's none of my business, I only need to be responsible for handing it over to the descendants of the Xu family, your father was obsessed with your mother's ghosts, and he didn't have the face to get these benefits, so he never came, and today you came, I want to put it in your hands, so that I can also settle down."

With that, the two came to the end of the waterfall, a cliff.

Below is the end of the waterfall, and the water pours down from the mountainside to the bottom of the mountain, and the waves roar and roar, which makes people feel shocked to watch.

"According to the old lady's meaning, this waterfall river was not facing here before, they dug a water hole in the middle of the mountainside, and then drained the water here, and used the waterfall to cover the hole on the cliff of this mountainside, where the Xu family's treasure house is located, there is only one entrance, it is difficult for ordinary people to enter, because the water force is very large, and if you go down this waterfall, you will only be drowned in the water vortex that washes to the bottom, and there is no way to stay on the mountainside cliff and drill into the waterfall."

Xu Cheng looked at a cliff towering waterfall below, without modern equipment pressure and waterproof facilities slowly groping down, it is really difficult to find the specific position of the hole in the entire waterfall, it is obviously impossible to come up from below with water power, and it is possible to hang a wire rope from above to touch it, no wonder it is difficult for people to go in, because there is nothing in the equipment, it is difficult for you to drill into the cave in the waterfall, and the wire rope equipment must be firm, a careless washdown down, such a high waterfall, There must be a huge impact vortex at the catchment below, and people who are not good at water will only drown there.

"Do you want me to go back and find the equipment?" Xu Cheng smiled bitterly.

The village chief was on crutches and ready to leave: "What is in it has nothing to do with me, whether you want it or not, it's all up to you, I'll leave first." In addition, if you go out, I hope not to reveal it here, we can't keep up with the pace outside, we just want to live with the world like this. ”

Xu Cheng couldn't help but bow to the old man and said, "Thank you." ”

Before leaving, the old man said to him: "I see that you have injuries on your body, if you stay, you can take care of yourself here and then go out, this place is very suitable for self-cultivation." ”

"Okay, so what should I call you?" Xu Cheng looked at the village chief and said.

"I don't have a name, but I named one for myself, called Xu Wuming." The village chief smiled slightly, and left.
