Ji Yuan lay on the flat big stone and looked at the stars in the sky, the little paper crane in the afterglow had already flown away, this little guy has excellent hidden skills, his mind is also very clever, and he has a unique spiritual sense, Ji Yuan is not worried about anything.

The starry light in his eyes slowly became blurred again, it was a cloud, gradually blocking the starry sky, and in the second half of the night, a light snow began to fall, which should be the last few snows of early spring.

In this environment, Ji Yuan really had a trace of sleepiness, so he directly sat on the ground, and then fell asleep with his arm pillowed sideways, the golden armor under the stone kept a cross-legged posture, his back was straight, and a pair of eyes that were not angry and self-righteous looked straight ahead, as if no matter the wind and snow, he could not affect him in the slightest.

On the other hand, of course, the little paper crane is flying to the county seat of Nandao, and people are not only the best object of observation, but also the little paper crane's favorite observation, especially in places where people gather, there are always interesting things to see.

The county seat of Nandao has always been regarded as one of the few prosperous cities within a radius of several hundred miles, although this is only relative, but after all, it is the appearance of a city.

At this moment, it is late at night, and the ordinary people in Nandao County have already been underwater, but this does not mean that Nandao County has fallen silent, on the contrary, no matter where it is, there will always be people who live in a corner outside the ordinary people's daily routine.

To the south of the county, near the middle of the southern city wall, there is a relatively large mansion, surrounded by a courtyard wall, and there are several houses, and even a special ancestral hall.

Although there is no light in the house at this moment, in fact, the family members of this family have not slept tonight, and they are lying on the bed one by one but only taking off their coats, and at this time they have also sat up from the bed, put on their coats and went out.

Almost at about the same time, several people from the room came out.

The first half of the night tonight was still starry, the second half of the night was already cloudy, and it gradually began to snow, and the visibility outside was not very good, a few people came to the ancestral hall in the dark, and when everyone came in, the last person quickly closed the door of the ancestral hall gently.

"Quick, palm lamp. ”

"Hey!"

A young man took out the fire fold he brought, blew a few times to produce sparks, and then lit a candle on a candlestick in the ancestral hall, and suddenly the ancestral hall was illuminated by candles.

"Come, go to the back. ”

The order was given by a sturdy old man about sixty or seventy years old, who led a few people around to the back of the spiritual wall of the ancestral hall, and then took a shovel from the side, shoveled it down to a gap in the ground, embedded it in the crack and pressed it down, and a whole piece of hardwood was loosened.

"Come here and give a hand!"

The old man and another middle-aged man squatted down together, grabbed both sides of the hardwood board, and after a while, "one, two, three", they moved the hardwood board, which was not light, to one side.

As the hardwood board was removed, a large black hole appeared in front of the eyes, and the young man with the candlestick looked inside, and could see that it was a long and narrow tunnel.

"Knock Knock ......"

"Hey, inside, you can come up!"

The old man took the shovel and tapped twice on the stone in the tunnel wall, and the sound reached far into the depths of the tunnel, and it was not long before there was a sound of ropes below, including the sound of dragging heavy objects and the sound of slight footsteps.

Under the light of the candles in the ancestral hall, the first thing that appeared at the entrance of the cave was a medium-sized wooden box one arm wide, and there was also a sound from below.

"Hand in hand, it's very heavy!"

"Hurry, rope and stick. ”

The old man on one side hurriedly instructed the others, and the woman on the side immediately handed over the thick hemp rope that had been prepared long ago and was tied into two loops, and someone else found a round wooden stick.

The old man sent the noose to the hole, and the lower man kept putting his hand into his neckline to tickle while waiting, and when he saw the noose down, he quickly put the two nooses of the noose on both ends of the box, and the person on top had already used a short wooden stick to pass through the loop on the top of the rope.

"Alright, carry it up. ”

"Hmm!"

The old man was old but had a lot of strength, and he personally squatted down with the middle-aged man at the entrance of the cave, one after the other, and let the short stick fall on his shoulder.

"One, two, three, ......"

"Gur-la-la-......"

In the sound of the rope being tightened, the old man and the middle-aged man slowly stood up, and the box also left the hole little by little, and was slowly lifted to the ground.

"Bang ......"

There was a muffled sound when the box landed, and the two people who carried the burden breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's so heavy, I almost can't stand up!" "yes, there must be a lot of good stuff!"

"No, there's a lot of good stuff!"

The people at the bottom of the tunnel also climbed up, not one, but four people in front of and behind, and apparently the other three had only been waiting in the narrow tunnel.

When everyone came out, everyone gathered around the box, and carefully opened it under the candlelight held by the young man.

"Wow......" "That's a lot of money......"

"yes, I've never seen anything so valuable in my life......"

In front of everyone's eyes, there is a box of good things, there are all kinds of jewelry beads, there are also a lot of copper coins and silver, some folded clothes, and some belts inlaid with jade and agate, in addition to some exquisite small utensils, mostly jade copper and silver, and even a few exquisite short swords.

"What an eye-opener, what an eye-opener!"

"Hehe, don't talk about you, we're the same, I heard that this is just robbing an ordinary rich family, or sharing things with several groups of people, so I packed this full box!"

The person who spoke was the man who had put on the noose before, and scratched the back of his neck fiercely.

Several people's eyes lit up, and they couldn't help but reach out to play with the treasure in the box, and the woman on the side even took a golden hairpin and gestured on her head, and the smile on her face was confiscated.

"In the past two days, it is estimated that Lao Li Tou will send some more things, be careful, we have to find some suitable carriages and horses in the city, go to the northern city to sell everything, and exchange them for cash. ”

"Why?"

The old man asked, and a man who came up from the tunnel looked at the three companions who had come with him before replying.

"Uncle Li, listening to what Old Li Tou meant, the war seems to be a little unfavorable, in fact, it's not just us, there are also some people who secretly transport things to the back......"

The man who spoke said this, once again reached behind the collar to tickle, the old man on the side looked at him and looked at the other three people next to him, and found that two of them were actually tickling, one reached from the waist to the inside of the shirt and scratched the stomach, the other scratched the back, and then the third would also scratch the outside of the thigh, which was not enjoyable, and finally reached into the cotton pants and scratched directly.

"You're so itchy?"

The three of them who were tickling made a move, and the original smile of the leader also retracted.

"Lately, I've been itching all the time, not just me, but everyone else is similar, like a flea bite all the time. ”

When the old man saw that the man said this, and saw that the back of his hand to the back of his hand seemed to be unable to scratch the itch, he took a step closer.

"Come on, come on, I'll help you scratch. ”

As he spoke, he pulled open his shirt and reached in from his back, and when he reached the center of his back, he felt a small pimple.

"Is that it?"

"Yes, yes, that's it, scratch, hey, yes, hiss...... Comfortable......"

The old man scratched for a moment before withdrawing his hand, only to smell the stench of his hands, especially his nails.

"Oh, it stinks, you guys, you have to clean up yourself, since you're back, I'm not in a hurry to go back, when the sky is brighter, I'll let Ayu and them boil a few big pots of hot water, let you take a good bath, the camp should be fine, right?"

"Don't get in the way, don't get in the way, there are everyone in our army, and the management is not strict, after withdrawing to rest for the time being, it won't be anything worse, and there is also the old Li Tou to cover, by the way, Uncle Li, get some good wine and good food!"

The old man smiled and patted the man on the shoulder.

"Then you need to say, Ershunzi should be okay?"

"What can Lao Li do, just let Uncle Li make a few more preparations, anyway, you are making money. ”

"Hahaha, that's nature, and you kid, it's time to marry Ayu, right?"

"This, hey, hey......" "Hey, hey, hey......"

"Oops, Daddy~~"

The men on the side all let out a wicked laugh, and the old man glanced at the other three men who came from the tunnel and laughed as well.

"I've also helped you find a few of you, now that you have money, you don't have to worry about it, let's go, let's go to the kitchen after dealing with it first, and then go to the kitchen, and still have hot wine and meat!"

At this moment, on the beam of the ancestral hall, the little paper crane didn't know when to get in, and he had been squatting on the top and staring down, originally he was more curious about what the family was doing sneaking into the ancestral hall, and thought it was very funny, but after the four people came up, the little paper crane's attention was mainly focused on them.

The group of people below first put the box back to the entrance of the tunnel, and after sealing the tunnel, they blew out the candles, and then left the ancestral hall one after another.

Before closing the door, the little paper crane flew out with a whizz, like a breeze across the old man's hand, and with a slight flap of its little wings, a thin black line was fanned out.

Seeing this thin line shot into the darkness of the corner, the little paper crane was like a bird that had found a small insect, and immediately chased after it, and after searching for a while in the corner of the wall, it swooped down on the head of a small grass like lightning, and the two paper wings pressed forward together, and it was as alive as a cat that grabbed a little mouse.

Although the two wings of the little paper crane are made of paper, although there is soft soil underneath, but in the faint flash of white light, the black shadow just can't break free.
