Chapter 121 Bandit’s Wealth

Yang Guang recited this crooked poem several times, and they all broke up. What else are you looking for?

Suddenly Yang Guang's whole body became excited.

This poem hides other meanings.

The first word of the first sentence, the second word of the second sentence, the third word of the third sentence, and the fourth word of the fourth sentence are combined together to find something behind the house.

Looking for something behind the house, Yang Guang confirmed it again, that's what it meant.

Could it be that there is something hidden behind the house?

Could it be that, as expected, there is indeed "Alibaba's treasure".

Don't miss it if you pass by.

Yang Guang took the engineers and shoveled them out of the house and came to the back of the house.

Behind the house is a spacious flat land covered with a layer of withered yellow leaves.

Yang Guang came to the middle of the back of the house, threw away his arms and dug into the ground with a construction shovel.

The excitement of finding a treasure prompted Yang Guang to wave the shovel repeatedly, but after more than a meter, there was still dirt and nothing.

Because the poem only says it’s behind the house, and there’s a lot of space behind the house.

Yang Guang changed another place and continued digging next to the place where he just dug the hole.

No, continue digging in another place.

In the end, I worked until early in the morning and still didn't find anything.

Could it be that the "looking for something behind the house" in that poem was just a coincidence?

Or haven’t you dug deep enough?

Yang Guang ran to the first pit again and dug down more than one meter.

Then the second pit, the third pit

Still nothing found.

Was that poem really just a coincidence?

Yang Guang returned to the painting of Guan Gong and chewed these four lines of poetry carefully.

House seemingly endless rain,

May we meet again later in the day.

Looking for the deserted night,

Returning home with nothing to gain.

In the end, Yang Guang denied that the words "looking for something behind the house" were a coincidence.

Because these four lines of poetry do not have the smoothness of "There is bright moonlight in front of the bed, it is suspected to be frost on the ground, the giant looks at the bright moon, lowering his head and thinking about his hometown". Especially the third line of looking for the cold love night, the other three lines are obviously a bit different.

The coordination has some traces of being forced.

Looking for a deserted night?

Could it be that this sentence actually refers to time, Mi Mi, or is it a homophone for "secret"?

It's a deserted night. Could it be that it takes night to unlock the secrets and find the treasure?

Is it already night time?

Yang Guang went to the back of the house and conducted a carpet-like search, but Heigulongdong found nothing.

It seems that the problem still lies with this poem. Could it be that I still didn’t understand it correctly?

A deserted night, isn’t that the night I’m talking about?

Qing means early morning, and Ye means night.

Qingye, is it the time when morning and night meet, that is the time of dawn.

Yang Guang's heart skipped a beat, he guessed that he would be right this time.

There is still some time before dawn, Yang Guang takes Xiao Hei and Xiao Fei back to the "three rooms and one living room" in his Ring world.

I washed myself, set the alarm clock for the morning, and then fell asleep.

Xiao Hei lay down on a carpet next to Yang Guang's wire bed and slept. Xiao Fei grabbed a beam on Yang Guang's tent and closed his eyes.

Six o'clock in the morning.

The "ding bell" alarm clock woke up Yang Guang and his pet on time.

Yang Guang didn't bother to eat, so he grabbed the engineers and shoveled out of the Ring World, and ran excitedly behind the bandit's "Gathering Hall".

At this moment, the sky is still dark.

Yang Guang stood behind the house and thought carefully. Behind the bandit's house was a flat land the size of a football field, surrounded by cliffs. It was probably the playground where the bandits used to practice martial arts and target shooting.

And I just excavated five or six square meters of the area behind the bandit's house.

According to the meaning in the poem, the bandit's treasure should be in this ranch, but I don't know the specific location.

So what will happen at dawn?

Yang Guang stood quietly.

After a while, a red sun began to rise from the east, shining into this small mountain col. Then a gust of mountain wind blew, and the cold Yang Guang shivered a little. It was indeed a deserted night.

What changes?

There are more shadows.

Yes, it's a shadow.

The sunshine on this autumn morning made the shadow of "Juyi Hall" thin and long, turning it into the shape of a long sword.

The farthest point of the shadow, where the shadow sword head is, almost reaches the edge of the cliff.

Is that hidden object behind the house worth the search for an object behind the shadow of the house?

This must be it, Yang Guang thought.

Yang Guang quickly ran behind the shadow's sword head and dug a few shovels quickly.

But as he dug more and more, Yang Guang was both surprised and happy.

Fortunately, Yang Guang became more and more certain that this place was where the treasure was hidden.

I was surprised to find that the soil in this place was obviously softer than the soil in the holes I dug yesterday.

What does this mean? It means that someone should have excavated this place in recent years, and all the soil has been backfilled.

In other words, bandits, or descendants of bandits, have come here to excavate and come back to collect treasures in recent years.

Yang Guang's heart felt so cold.

But this is normal, Yang Guang comforted himself.

Since the bandits who buried this treasure have not been wiped out by the government, they will definitely come back to get these treasures, or they will tell their descendants this secret.

"Bounce" Yang Guang's engineer shovel hit a hard object.

Found the rightful owner.

After digging for a while, a large wooden box the size of a refrigerator appeared underground.

The box was very heavy, so Yang Guang used a lot of strength to pull the box up.

But when Yang Guang saw the lock on the box, his heart became even colder.

Although the box is very old, the lock on the box is very new, very new, very new.

Moreover, this is obviously a bicycle lock, okay? Yang Guang couldn't laugh or cry.

This feeling is like the emperor in the TV series sitting on the dragon throne and eating Lao Tan Pickled Cabbage Beef Noodles, his uncle's.

It seemed that the descendants of the bandits must have come to retrieve the items, then locked the box with a bicycle lock and buried it again.

But judging from the force Yang Guang used to pull the box out, there should be something inside the box.

"Pa" Yang Guang waved the paratrooper shovel and cut off the self-locking lock in one stroke.

Opening the box, it was as expected.

Gold, silver, jewelry, emeralds and agate are all the same.

There are several cylindrical objects wrapped in brown paper, about the size of flashlights.

Yang Guang turned away Yuan Datou, who was scattered on the floor.

There are also cubes the size of tofu packed in kraft paper, which is the most popular, filling up less than half a box.

Yang Guang picked up a piece and tore open the package.

The inside is covered in dark, dry lumps like cow dung.

Although Yang Guang saw this thing for the first time, every Chinese person knew the name of this thing, so Yang Guang had about the same guess.

Opium cream.

Opium cream was very valuable during the Republic of China, and of course it is very valuable now.

During the Republic of China, due to inflation, opium cream was even used as hard currency like gold and silver, and was even used as currency for a time.

Therefore, it is not unusual for bandits to bury opium paste as treasure, because this half box of opium paste is an amazing wealth.

However, in today's society, selling a lump of opium the size of cow dung is enough to last for decades, and it is not easy to sell. No wonder the descendants of the bandits did not take it.

The key point is that this thing is useless to Yang Guang, and he doesn't dare to take it out for money.

What really caught Yang Guang's attention was that there was something lying on the side of the box.

A large round copper piece over sixty centimeters in diameter.

Yang Guang stretched out his hand to pick it up, but it was very heavy. It almost fell out of Yang Guang's hand and hit Yang Guang's foot. No wonder the descendants of the bandits didn't pick it up, it was too heavy.

You must know that this is a deserted mountain and night ridge, and you can't drive trains or motorcycles, and you can't call relatives and friends together. If you are alone, you must pick up gold and jewelry first.

Looking carefully, this large round copper piece is convex on the outside and concave on the inside. It is arc-shaped, gray in color, and has sharp edges. There are two rings inside the concave surface.

The overall shape is similar to that of a pancake pan, just slightly larger.

If Yang Guang guessed correctly, this is a shield.

What really makes this shield look valuable is the very ancient animal face pattern engraved on the front.

This animal mask has a nose, eyes, and mouth, and there are exposed fangs on the mouth.

Make this shield look like the big face of an ancient mythical beast. In addition, this shield is made of bronze, so it seems that this thing should be of some value, and the bandit also put it in his treasure box.

In the end, because the shield was too heavy, the descendants of the bandits couldn't carry it at once, so they put it in the box instead of taking it away with the gold, silver and jewelry.

I didn't expect Yang Guang to be involved as a third party. No, it was just a coincidence.

At the head office, Yang Guang is not interested in anything else except this shield.

However, in order to avoid poisoning others, Yang Guang still accepted the box of opium ointment. Anyway, his ring space was very large.

But, after such a long time, can I still smoke this opium cream?

Bah, why are you thinking about this?

Yang Guang planned to sink all the opium in any big river again.

However, those Yuan Datou have a few hundred coins, which can be exchanged for hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Finally, Yang Guang filled the hole with all the soil, and the place became flat land again. Yang Guang suddenly thought that if the descendants of the bandits came here again and found that there were no boxes, they would have a wonderful expression.

This is the bandit treasure that Yang Guang found.

Now, Yang Guang can almost smooth the whole thing out.

This group of bandits has been entrenched in the mountains of Qinling Mountains for many years, specializing in robbing caravans passing by and accumulating some wealth.

However, after liberation, because the country built a railway through the Qinling Mountains, the caravans no longer used this canyon plank road, so the bandits could no longer survive, so they decided to break up.

However, at that time, the country had just been founded and was carrying out a series of dictatorship movements such as the Three Antis and Five Antis, overthrowing the landlords, rich, reactionaries and bad rightists, etc., and was merciless in dealing with the bandits and bullies.

So the bandit leader decided to return home with no or less wealth, thus accidentally exposing his identity as a bandit. Most of the wealth was still buried in the mountains, waiting to be recovered later.

So the bandits hid all the gold, silver and jewelry they had accumulated, the ocean of opium, and an ancient shield they got from who knows where, under this ranch.

The bandits were worried that they would forget the place or be unable to come in person, so they left clues, which were the four lines of the poem.

Later, the bandit may have exposed his identity in various sports, or he died of old age. In short, the secret was passed on to his descendants.

In recent years, the country has focused on reform, opening up and economic construction, and social management has been loosened. So the descendants of the bandits remembered this secret again.

The descendant of the bandit secretly ran to the depths of the Qinling Mountains alone and opened the treasure.

Since I was alone, I couldn't take the shield and several packages of silver, so I had to lock the box and leave with the gold, silver and jewelry.

Later, the descendants of the bandits may have brought misfortune with their windfall, but they still felt that they had not given away anything valuable. Anyway, the descendants of the bandits never came back.

Since this place itself is located deep in the vast Qinling Mountains, and the bandit camp is relatively secretive, no one has ever been here.

Until Yang Guang came here and discovered the secret.

After resting for a while, Yang Guang took his two pets and rushed to the place where the old man said there was a thousand-year-old tree.

As Yang Guang hurried on, he studied the shield in his hand. Although the shield was heavy, it was only for ordinary people.

The shield has two rings, and the left arm passes through one to hold the other.

One is stuck on the elbow, and the other is held in the hand, holding the shield very comfortably and firmly.

Yang Guang waved his left hand twice, feeling like an ancient Roman gladiator.

Looking at the animal patterns and materials on this shield, it should be an ancient shield with a very long history.

Yang Guang felt it carefully and did not find any fluctuations in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth on this shield, so Xiao Hei did not feel the fluctuations of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Unlike the tripod and iron turtle that Yang Guang discovered last time, he could feel the fluctuations of spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

Look, they are the tools used by cultivators.

Although nothing has been discovered yet, this is definitely not an ordinary shield, Yang Guang thought to himself.

Yang Guang inspected it repeatedly and found that this ancient shield had no other secrets except that it was very heavy. But this was the biggest secret, because judging from its material, it could not be so heavy at all.

The edges of this shield are somewhat sharp, and the thickest part in the center is only about one centimeter. Moreover, the bronze material is lighter than copper and iron. If it is really an ordinary shield, how could it make Yang Guang, a cultivator, feel a little heavy?

.

Following the old man's instructions, Yang Guang climbed over two more ridges and came to the edge of a vast forest. According to the old man, the thousand-year-old tree was in the center of the forest.

The vegetation in this forest is very different from the vegetation in other places. There are no messy shrubs and weeds, only sparse large trees.

Each big tree has a diameter of two to three meters. The distance between the big trees is tens of meters and is very sparse, but the crown of the tree is very large, blocking out the sky.

There is green grass under the trees, and there is a faint mist inside, making it look like a fairyland on earth.

This is a very ancient virgin forest.

At this moment, the sky is already dim and the sun is about to set.

Standing at the edge of the forest, Yang Guang felt a little hesitant.

Because the old man once told Yang Guang that there was a lot of evil in this forest. He accidentally broke in back then, and he was very lucky to get out alive.

Yang Guang once saw the old man exorcise evil spirits with his own eyes, and Yang Guang believed that the old man's words were credible.

Yang Guangjue's idea was to rest for the night and go back in tomorrow morning. There was no need to take risks.
