【Chapter 103】Reappearance of giant rat
This time, it was really like seeing a ghost!
That cellar was built with stones all around, and the seams were poured with copper! It was definitely not possible for someone to break a hole in the wall or steal it. Moreover, the door was well locked and even the seal was intact. It was definitely not a servant spy.
Stolen!
Mr. Huang Wan and I carefully inspected the entire cellar and found no clues. There were no loopholes to fix in any aspect, but the gold always disappeared!
At this time, Huang Wanliang's expression was really complicated. On the one hand, he felt as if a piece of his heart had been cut out of the missing gold, and he bared his teeth and shed tears. On the other hand, he was also shocked and shocked.
What I'm afraid of is that, as the old man said, the gold and silver are indeed the essence of the mountains and rocks, and they are extremely spiritual. What I'm afraid of is that if this continues, whether the effort will be in vain in the end.
People die for money, and birds die for food! Huang Wanliang would never sit idly by and keep the gold in this cellar even if he risked his life! So he found his close servants and housekeepers, and they decided to sit in the cellar and guard it all night
, look at how the gold slips away with long legs!
That night, as soon as it got dark, a few people sat in the cellar, staring at the pile of gold. Huang Wanliang felt as if he was facing a powerful enemy, and almost didn't bother to blink, walking around the cellar with eager eyes.
come and go
Mr. Huang was so interested, so we were all ready to wait. Several hours passed like this, but there was still no movement. The pile of gold did not move at all, not a single piece was left untouched!
Slowly, we all relaxed. As the night approached, everyone became more and more confused. One of the servants actually dozed off!
As the saying goes, one's own children love themselves; and they also say that gold and silver are like children, and wealth connects people's hearts! Although it was late at night, Huang Wanliang was still full of energy and vigilance, without any sign of sleepiness! The dozing servant also
He scolded me like a bastard and insulted my ancestors!
So everyone worked hard and, like Huang Wanliang, stared at the pile of gold. At this moment, they heard a "ding bell" and the gold ingot at Huang Wanliang's feet disappeared out of thin air.
We were frightened and shocked. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, a large ingot weighing dozens of taels disappeared, as if taken by a ghost!
Later, Huang Wanliang did not hesitate to spend a lot of money and invited a great mage to show him what kind of evil spirit he was that dared to steal gold and silver blatantly.
The great mage walked around the cellar and told Huang Wanliang, "You gold and silver have some problems with their origins. They don't want to live in your home at all. It's just that you trapped them too tightly, so they can't all escape. It will last forever."
, they will definitely escape Huang Mansion one by one.
Of course, Huang Wanliang knew what the master meant. The implication was that this pile of gold was obtained by his son through corruption and bribery. It was not the result of hard work. Of course, ill-gotten gains cannot be kept for a long time!
Later, after Huang Wanliang begged hard and promised a lot of money, the great mage presented him with an auspicious beast with a dragon head and a horse body, named Pixiu. He said that this auspicious beast was the best at guarding the treasury and could ensure that everything was safe.
In addition, the Pixiu has a mouth but no anus, and can only eat but not defecate. It will surely bring unexpected joy to Mr. Huang.
Huang Wanliang was overjoyed and excited, and quickly asked the mage to place Pixiu in the cellar for guarding.
Strangely enough, since Pixiu guarded the gold cellar, not a single gold bar has been lost. Huang Wanliang was even more fearless, and he and his son went even further and exploited the people.
As the saying goes, if a family has thousands of taels of gold, it is not difficult to keep a lot of money! In less than a month, the golden cellar, together with the brave animal, became empty overnight!
Later I heard that not long after, Huang Wanliang's son, who was the prefect, was impeached and dismissed from his post by the imperial envoy. From then on, his family fell into decline.
Speaking of this, Mr. Liu was also full of emotions, "So, a small fortune depends on hard work, and a big fortune depends on fate! If you don't have a good fortune, you just want to get the wealth that you don't share. Either you will cause disaster or you will have wealth.
It’s lifeless and I can’t enjoy it!”
"Old Liu, what you said is really good! It seems that this Pixiu is really a mythical beast. I heard that we were going to use this gold and silver to save the country and the people, so I reluctantly gave it up, hahaha!" The group leader piled gold and silver there.
I looked inside the dark cave and smiled happily.
He got up and said, "Brothers! I can't sleep well anyway. Besides, I don't like sleeping in this cave where birds don't lay eggs! Otherwise, we should set off now and have a good drunken rest outside.
Rest! How about it?"
"Okay!" "Get out now!" "Go outside to drink!" "Don't sleep in this bird's hole!"
The chaotic shouts shook the sky, responding to the call of the group leader! It seemed that everyone was in the same mood, wishing to leave this depressing and frightening cave as soon as possible, drink happily under the clear breeze and white clouds outside, and sleep peacefully!
After giving the order, the comrades immediately rushed back to the dark cave next to them, each carrying a small wooden box, ready to go outside for a drink and a good rest!
At this moment, we saw a mass of black things in front of us, high or low, like a flood, rushing towards us!
Thinking of the fist-sized ants and piglet-like mice we encountered when the five of us entered the cave for the first time, I shouted with a trembling voice: "Boss Liu! It could be those"
Before I could finish my words, those mice, which were about the same size as piglets, were galloping towards us like arrows from a string!
Although we warned our comrades before entering the cave, when everyone actually faced these incredible giant rats, they were still terrified. They put down the wooden boxes on their shoulders, took off the guns on their shoulders, and prepared to shoot!
Those giant rats, connected head to tail, were a mass of black mass, which was shocking! Although we had guns in our hands, no one dared to fire the first shot! Because no one wanted to taste it first without the order from the regiment leader.
The taste of the bites of those rats! Thinking of the sharp teeth of the giant rats crawling on the body and biting them, I feel chills in my bones.
Before you even have time to shoot, the vanguard of those giant rats are already in front of you! The gray-black fur, bright rat eyes, long pointed mouth, etc. are clearly visible!
I just feel that the hand holding the gun is shaking! Because I know that even if we fire together, we can only kill one-tenth of them at most, and the other giant rats will never sit still and wait to be killed. They will definitely attack in groups.
However, these giant rats didn't even look at us, they just galloped away from us like a gust of wind!
Chapter completed!
