Chapter 64 (Jade Theft Case 2)

Leaving the Dongda Ditch, crossing the Thorn Ridge, and then following a dirt ditch to the bottom of the ditch, in front of you, is a lush forest of giant ginseng, there is a road covered by trees in the forest, this road is the only way to Nanpo Village. Nanpo Village is actually the birthplace of the Gao family's ancestral home.

This primitive village, with only seven or eight inhabitants, is desolate and lonely, even if the shepherds and hunters are far away, afraid to set foot in the period.

However, Maizi and his companions stay here all year round. Never leave. No one will be allowed to step in without permission. Even if they sneak in, even if they don't find out about it, they will be torn to pieces by the vicious dogs that suddenly emerge from the forest.

Gao Yang had tried, but if it weren't for the Jinbao brothers by his side, the consequences would be unimaginable.

For this reason, Gao Hongtu was furious, and left five deep imprints on Yang's cheeks, which made Yang's deep memory in the depths of his soul. Don't dare to take a step beyond the thunder pool.

This realm is a blind spot in any Rao's heart. In Gao Hongtu's heart, it is anyone's insurmountable bottom line and unforgettable privacy.

In the midst of the ruins that had been burned beyond recognition, Huozi finally found the body of Uncle Blind who had almost been burned to the ground, and the reason why Huozi confirmed that he was Uncle Huozi was because he was still holding the charcoal-burned huqin tightly in his hand, but his other hand was pressed under his body.

Huozi is no stranger to everything here, back then, his master Gao Hongtu took him and Maizi to spend more than a dozen unforgettable years here.

It is also here that he, Maizi and Da Nier have an emotional experience that will affect their lives.

Because, Da Nier's childhood and youth were almost spent here.

It's not that Maizi likes to listen to Uncle Blind's huqin, but everyone likes to listen to Uncle Blind's huqin. Including sheep herders and hunters, as long as the sound of the blind uncle's huqin sounds, even those cattle and sheep who are grazing will raise their heads and prick up their ears.

However, the blind uncle died so tragically. But he didn't die in his melodious, mournful Huqin tunes

Huozi's tears were sad and sad, and they fell silently on this old man whom he loved so much.

In the memories of childhood, what lingers and beats in Huozi's mind is always the melodious and mournful Huqin notes of the blind uncle.

The reason why he came here was to sort out his remains, let him be buried with his wife, and in the future, he would be able to go to his grave and burn some paper money. He has comforted his spirit.

Huozi picked up the dry bones of the blind uncle one by one into the box he had prepared in advance, and placed them in it as they were. Until he finally turned out the blind uncle's left hand that was pressed against his abdomen, he found that this hand was intact, the skin and flesh were still there, but he was clenched into a fist tightly. It seems to be holding something in the palm of his hand.

He tried to break the blind uncle's fist,

He actually held a dark green jade pendant in his palm.

He suddenly remembered that there was a rao in such a jade pendant, and there was actually one in his neck.

That's wheat.

Moreover, he knew that Maizi had been secretly looking for another jade pendant,

When they were at their best, Maizi had followed him, and as long as he found another jade pendant, he might be able to find his biological parents.

Huozi held the jade pendant in his hand, and his heart couldn't calm down for a long time.

At this moment, two voices came.

It is the voice of the high ambition and the wheat,

I only heard Gao Hongtu say: "The Japanese may be involved in this matter, and leave them alone."

Maizi asked, "What should we do if that person does show up?"

Gao Hongtu said angrily: "How many times are you going to let me?" This bureau is set up for him, and you still don't understand? Is! ”

Maizi's voice seemed to be full of nervousness and uneasiness, and he said, "Our manpower may not be able to deal with it, this is not good"

Gao Hongtu's footsteps stopped, just in front of the blind uncle's dilapidated courtyard.

Gao Hongtu asked, "Who did this?" ”

Maizi replied: "Maybe it was the blind uncle who knocked over the oil lamp and broke into it himself, and no one can enter here."

Gao Hongtu sighed and lamented, and then asked, "Where is the corpse he ---?" ”

Maizi replied, "Maybe it has been reduced to ashes."

Gao Hongtu scolded: "What an unfilial son, ridiculous--- do you know----! He suddenly stopped it, but changed his words and said, "Let's go, go in and have a look."

Mai Zidao was speechless. Inside, he heard the footsteps of the two coming in.

Huozi's heart was pounding, and he hadn't figured out how to deal with it.

At this moment, a wild cat jumped in with a pheasant, and when he saw Huozi, he rushed out like an arrow.

I only heard Maizi say: "Godfather, let's go back, you haven't been here these days, I don't know if Weaver Niang can change her mind."

Gao Hongtu snorted and instructed him, hurry up and level this place, find the bones of your blind uncle and bury it with your blind aunt, otherwise, there will be another unjust soul here, and it will be strange to pass by here back and forth, go back."

The two went out.

Huozi hurriedly breathed a sigh of relief and quietly probed out.

At this time, I heard Mai Zi shouting and asking, "Who is it?"

Huozi thought he had found him, and was about to get out of the way. But he heard Maizi say: "Red Fox Demon Queen? ”

Only then did Huozi know that Maizi had discovered it again, so he had the courage to stick out his head, and the two had long disappeared.

Huozi was about to leave, but he heard the sound of a murmuring rope outside the east wall, and thought it was Maizi quietly turning towards him. I couldn't help but be shocked in my heart, and my mind was running at a high speed, searching for a way out of the predicament. At this time, he heard a hoarse voice say: "Zhang Qing must be in the village." See, the one with the wheat is the owner of the high village. They don't know what they're doing here? ”

only listened to another soil: "Brother, I don't know how to thank you, as long as you rescue my brother, you will be the great benefactor of my Zhang family"

Huozi thought to himself, Zhang Qing is Maizi's good brother, and his right-hand man must be Zhang Qing's brother, but I don't know who the other person is, why did he risk coming here to save his younger brother, and even invited a helper. What did Zhang Qing do that he was rescued by the people of the Zhang family? Huozi thought so, and his mind immediately became nervous, and he wanted to follow the two to find out. So, he stood still inside the wall and watched the situation develop.

It turned out that after knowing the situation of the Zhang family, Feng Zhiqing also poured out his identity to Zhang Bin. After careful study, the two removed several people from the surveillance one by one, and then, transferred the elders of the Zhang family to a relative's house to take care of them.

Huozi slowly stretched his head out of the east wall, but saw that the two of them were covered with black scarves, and Er Rao held a long knife to kill fish in his hand, hiding under the wall, waiting for an opportunity to move.

Since both of them were masked in black scarves, Huozi did not recognize the wind in it. Therefore, they were still cautious, but they didn't know why these two people took the risk to save Zhang Qing. As for Zhang Qing and the others who had been burned to death by Maizi in the house he was in, they still don't know. Because the wheat had cleaned up their dry bones and moved them, leaving only the body of the blind uncle still inside.

Feng Zhiqing and Zhang Bin both slipped out of the back wall and infiltrated the village. Huozi quietly followed behind. didn't make much effort, and when he came to the front of Gao Hongtu's private house, he saw Maizi and Gao Hongtu coming back from outside, as if tracking the red fox demon queen was unsuccessful, and his body was not stable, so he directly crossed into the private house.

It didn't take much effort, but I heard a female voice coming from inside, like the voice of a maid, but I heard the maid say: "The hostess has just fallen asleep," and Gao Hongtu said: "Quickly pass on your hostess, and I will come to see her." ”

didn't work hard, but listened to it: "I've been here all day long, eating, sleeping, sleeping, eating, and annoying, you still let me go, I have no love for you anymore." ”

I only heard Gao Hongtu say: "Bear with it for a few more days, and I will take you to the villa to live, but it is not very convenient at the moment,"

I only heard the woman's words: "Why bother? Your tigress may not tolerate me, but I am afraid that I will not enjoy any blessings and bury my life in her hands, your family is not without such precedents. You'd better let me go, or I'll die for you."

Huozi was shocked, and thought to himself, this old thing with a heart, and a woman from a good family who was hooked out of nowhere, was imprisoned in his private house, and if there was a chance, she would definitely be rescued and let go. I thought so in my heart, but I heard the voice of the maid from inside. I only heard the maid persuade Gao Hongtu and said: "Master, let's go back to the village first, and we will slowly persuade the hostess." Presumably I will slowly think about it in the future, but now I can't be in a hurry, as the saying goes, I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry------- only to hear Gao Hongtu scold impatiently: "Go and go." What do you know about this girl, what hot tofu is not hot tofu, she is my ancestor, I owe her in my last life,"

Soon after the words fell, they heard the door open, and the two of them came out, and then the head of a girl was revealed, and after looking around, they immediately retracted themselves, closed the door, and then tied up.

When the two of them came out, Mai Zi looked suspicious, and said: "This red fox demon queen's figure is too fast, just like a ghost, in the end, she still let her run away, but fortunately, Weaver Niang is fine." ”

Gao Hongtu asked: "Are all the things I asked you to do cleanly?" “

Maizi replied: "Godfather, please rest assured, even if they check again, they won't find any clues." ”

Gao Hongtu said: "Okay, I'll just believe you,"

He warns Maizi once again that our plans will be set in motion soon, and that the Red Fox Enchantress must be eliminated before they can be started, and that she will be our henchman,"

Maizi said: "Godfather, but don't worry, the straw hat may arrive soon." “

Gao Hongtu nodded and continued: "It won't be long before everyone who should come will come, and no one would have imagined that in this ravine, there will be a thrilling show." After that, Gao Hongtu walked towards the outside of the village.

Maizi watched his figure walk away. Then he hurried to the east side of the village.

Huozi's heart churned for a while, and he thought, what are they doing here?

Thinking like this, he saw that Feng Zhiqing and Zhang Bin actually followed the trail of Maizi. I want to keep up. But he didn't want to, seven or eight shadows jumped out from the depths of the shade of the trees, and quickly outflanked the two of them in different directions.

Without hesitation, Huozi also disappeared and followed closely, and he suddenly thought of a terrible place,

Further east, out of Nanpo Village, is the prohibitive Wolf Cave Canyon.

************************************

According to Huozi's orders, Da Nier and the musket team stepped up the defense around Jasper Villa. The brothers Feng Zhiyun and Feng Xiaoxiao took the children of the Feng family and kept watch over the jade fang and the jade treasury day and night. This is the core economic center of Jasper Villa, so the brothers never dare to slack off.

In the evening of this day, Feng Xiaoxiao went to the compound of Yufang to take over from his brother Feng Zhiyun. Walking into the courtyard of Yufang, stepping into the moon-shaped doorway, is the house guarded by Yufang, and a huge house adjacent to it is the jade warehouse. Feng Xiaoxiao carried the food box and walked into the room on duty, but saw that Feng Hao, a disciple of the Feng family, and Feng Yue were on duty, but his brother Feng Zhiyun was missing, so he asked about the two, Feng Hao said: "Someone sent a dart to pass the book, and found that Uncle Zhiqing appeared in the Wolf Cave Gorge, and now his life and death are unknown," Feng Hao told Feng Feifei: "The fourth uncle wants me to tell you, don't let you go, and keep the jade vault." He went to explore the truth first,"

When Feng Feifei heard this, he felt that the situation was serious, and thought to himself, the life and death of the eldest brother are unknown, and the second brother was swept away by the flood, and now the fourth brother went to the Wolf Cave Gorge alone, where it is very dangerous, if it is calculated by the bad guys, how can it be good? So he couldn't take care of much, and told the two to take care of the jade treasury and not slack off. He hurried out of the village and went straight to the direction of Wolf Cave Gorge.

Feng Xiaoxiao went all the way over the mountains and ravines, and then came to the mouth of the canyon of the Wolf Cave Gorge, but saw that this Wolf Cave Gorge was indeed different from the ordinary canyon. But on the towering cliffs on both sides of the valley mouth, like a huge open wolf's mouth, the wolf's teeth are staggered and upside down, and it looks like it will fall at any time, and the valley is eerie and terrifying, and the yin wind gusts out from the valley with a whimpering sound. Feng Xiaoxiao hesitated for a while, and couldn't help shouting towards the valley, and the echoes came back from the valley, and he couldn't really hear the response of Feng Zhiyun, Feng Xiaoxiao then clenched the steel knife in his hand and stepped into the valley,

Feng Xiaoxiao marched to the valley, and looked around to check the situation in the valley, but saw that on the cliffs on both sides of the canyon, the caves were all over, some were half-hidden and half-hidden, some lions opened their mouths, the black air in the cave was heavy, the cold wind passed through, whining, as if the wolves and insects in the cave were whimpering. Feng Xiaoxiao followed his brother from birth to death, what danger has he not experienced? Therefore, I don't feel terrible, I'm afraid that the two brothers haven't heard from me yet, and in such an environment, I'm afraid it must be a trap designed by bad people. He was thinking while walking, and when he walked to the narrowest part of the canyon, he didn't want a huge net cover to fall above his head, which instantly tied him up and drove him into the air. But I heard someone chattering in the dark and laughing: "Shouting, what's the use? You can honestly accompany your two brothers and wait for death, hahahaha----"

After some careful preparations, Inoue and his group of five or six people set off from Baidou Qianzhuang to the destination, Wolf Cave Canyon.

Sakurako seems to be extremely uneasy about this trip. She asked, "Inoue-kun, do you really believe Yang Baidou's words?" ”

Inoue said: "I don't like to gamble, but I'm sure the gains will be very impressive.

How so? Sakurako asked.

Inoue stretched out his hand, touched Sakurako's long hair emotionally, and said with emotion: "The men of the Inoue family have two characteristics, is Sister Sakurako interested in knowing?"

Sakurako remained silent, indicating that she was listening, but there was a hint of cynicism on her expression.

Inoue glanced at her, seemingly displeased, and warned Sakurako, "Your attitude is hurting my self-esteem, you know?"

Sakurako snorted coldly and replied, "I'll do it for you," she glanced at Inoue and said, "The men of the Inoue family are not only greedy for money but also a little lustful, right?"

Inoue looked at Sakurako with some surprise,

Sakurako continued: "It's a pity, I'm only obsessed with money, and I don't dare to be bold."

Sakura finished, and the former colonel of the horse was beaten

Inoue looked at Sakurako's back, shook his head, pondered the meaning of Sakurako's last sentence, and felt quite intriguing, and said to himself: "She's right, Wolf Cave Gorge doesn't have any danger and cowardice to me, but unfortunately, for this beautiful overlord flower, I always have a feeling of wanting plum to quench my thirst, like facing the abyss, but I can't do anything with her."
