Summary of the previous chapter: Ma Xiaoquan did not know that Lu Xian had stolen Magnum, nor did he know that Lu Xian had mastered the assembly of Magnum, but... Magnum currently only has 3 bullets.
.....
The "announcement" location of the treasure is in a valley 25 kilometers away from Fancheng. This valley is called "Tian Jue Valley".
Tianjue Valley is an important hub connecting Xinye and Fancheng. If you want to attack from Xinye to Fancheng, you must control Tianjue Valley first. Otherwise, relying on the dangerous terrain of Tianjue Valley will definitely cause trouble to the attackers.
The reason why Ma Xiaoquan chose Tianjue Valley as the publicity point for the treasure was naturally because he thought of one person.
Liu Bei.
According to the course of history, Liu Bei would go to Fancheng to garrison shortly after Liu Biao's death.
Counting the time, after experiencing the trivial incident at Wangxiang Tower, Ma Xiaoquan estimated that Liu Bei was coming soon, so after some consideration, Ma Xiaoquan decided to place the publicity point of the treasure in Tianjue Valley. Later, Tianjue Valley
It is the junction between Xinye and Fancheng. Secondly, Liu Bei will definitely pass through Tianjue Valley when rushing from Xinye to Fancheng. In this case, even if someone finds out about the fake treasure news, Ma Xiaoquan is absolutely sure that Liu Bei can handle it.
This matter.
After blessing the green spirit fire and changing his weight, Ma Xiaoquan arrived at Tianjue Valley in about half an hour.
Since it was dark night, the green spirit fire could easily be seen. Along the way, Ma Xiaoquan moved forward under the exclamations of everyone.
Ma Xiaoquan is not afraid of exposing himself. After all, Jingzhou is relatively developed, and the information is naturally better informed. Some people in Jingzhou still know Ma Xiaoquan's name as Lord Immortal.
...
Standing at the entrance of Tianjue Valley, Ma Xiaoquan curled his lips and extinguished the green spirit fire on his body. In an instant, the surroundings suddenly became dark. But not long after, the surroundings became bright again.
Ma Xiaoquan turned his head and glanced a few times, and was surprised.
Ma Xiaoquan's original intention was to weaken the aristocratic class in Jingzhou, so he carefully planned this treasure incident. What he didn't expect was that more than half of the people who came to hunt for the treasure were civilians.
Seeing the crowds of people in front of him, Ma Xiaoquan couldn't laugh or cry. At this time, Lu Xian walked out of the crowd with a smile, waving his cattail leaf fan, and when he saw Ma Xiaoquan, he said, "Why, Master Shangxian also wants to hunt for treasures?"
Ma Xiaoquan rolled his eyes at Lu Xian and said, "I don't mean what tools do I want from you? Aren't you talking nonsense?"
Lu Xian snorted softly and responded: "You, an old monster who has lived for more than a thousand years, are still interested in money. It's incredible!" After saying that, Lu Xian shook his head and walked away.
In the crowd, Mao Gang shrank his head and led his men to look at Ma Xiaoquan. After a while, he told his men: "Follow that guy closely!"
"yes!"
...
There were too many people. Although torches were lit around to illuminate the area, the number of torches was obviously not enough compared to the number of people.
Ma Xiaoquan raised his head and looked at the top of Tianjue Valley, with a slight smile on his face, and thought to himself: Ma Yun and Ma Yu should be here soon, hehe, I'll give you guys a surprise, hehe...
..
The mouth of the valley was full of people, but no one was willing to take the lead in going into the valley to hunt for treasures.
As the saying goes, a gun kills the first bird. Nearly half of the people who came here were nobles and wealthy families. They knew these truths better than anyone else.
As for the other half of the common people, it seems that the nobles are not taking action, so they naturally wait and see first.
However... civilians are civilians. Their education and thinking are far inferior to those of the rich and nobles. I don't know who shouted: "Those who advance into the valley will have treasures..."
As soon as he finished speaking, most of the civilians rushed into Tianjue Valley in response.
In an instant, shouts resounded throughout Tianjue Valley.
Next to Lu Xian, Yuan Fang clenched his fists nervously. At this time, he was very nervous, but what Yuan Fang was nervous about was not the treasure hunt, but what Ma Xiaoquan said to him.
When Ma Xiaoquan "borrowed" tools before, he had spoken to Yuan Fang using lip language.
Ma Xiaoquan said: The treasure is fake.
Yuan Fang is so smart. When Ma Xiaoquan said this, he immediately understood the whole story.
Of course, due to his alliance with Ma Xiaoquan, Yuan Fang would definitely not tell Lu Xian about the fake treasure. On the contrary, he expected Lu Xian to be uncomfortable, and even hoped that there would be chaos and Lu Xian would die on the spot.
"Luo Shan, just watch. I have also made arrangements. I will avenge you."
Yuan Fang raised his head and looked at the surging crowd in front of him with bright eyes.
When Lu Xian saw Yuan Fang's appearance, he thought Yuan Fang was nervous, so he quickly laughed and said: "Yuan Fang, you look a little nervous?"
Yuan Fang sighed, nodded, and lied: "Yes, Master, I don't know who leaked the news, saying that there are many, many treasures in Tianjue Valley... It is said that if anyone finds these treasures,
You can enjoy it for hundreds of lifetimes..."
Lu Xian said oh, but his eyes were shining with golden light.
Yuan Fang continued: "Young master, I don't know. A murder occurred outside the inn where we stayed a few days ago. The face of the corpse has been destroyed, but it is said that several night-light pearls were found from his body.
!”
"Huh?" Mr. Lu heard his eyebrows move, "How do you know?"
Yuan Fang shook his head helplessly, reached into his arms, and took out a translucent luminous pearl.
Once the Night Pearl was taken out, the area 5 feet in front of Yuan Fang suddenly became a lot brighter.
Lu Xian was not polite, snatched the Ye Mingzhu over and asked Yuan Fang: "How come you have this?"
Yuan Fang smiled bitterly and said: "A doll was playing with this thing at the door of the inn where we stayed. I looked strange, so I used a few meat buns to replace it. After I exchanged it, I realized that it was a night pearl.
, later I inquired again and found out about this..."
Lu Xian looked into Yuan Fang's eyes, hoping to see signs of lying in Yuan Fang's eyes. Unfortunately, this was indeed the case, and Yuan Fang did not lie.
...
Taniguchi and Ma Xiaoquan did not rush in with the crowd because he also heard such stories.
"Is there really a treasure in Tianjue Valley?" Ma Xiaoquan took a middle-aged man by the hand and asked, "Brother, is there really a treasure in Tianjue Valley?"
Ma Xiaoquan has a reputation among the nobles, but not necessarily among the common people. The middle-aged man shook his arm impatiently, trying to get rid of Ma Xiaoquan, but he did not expect that the other party was surprisingly strong.
Moreover, the look in his eyes was very firm.
The middle-aged man sighed and said: "Brother, do you really not know or are you pretending not to know? There was a murder in the city a few days ago. The dead man's appearance was ruined, but it is said that a luminous pearl was found on him. Oh,
I still don’t believe it when others say it, but my neighbor Ergouzi actually got such one, and it was so bright at night..." The middle-aged man said, with incomparable envy in his eyes.
Ma Xiaoquan gently let go and said with a smile: "That's it, hehe..."
Looking at the middle-aged man's retreating back, Ma Xiaoquan took a breath and said to himself: "Why do I always have an ominous premonition? His grandma's..."
The common people had almost rushed, and at the entrance of the valley, only the nobles were left.
Listening to the howling sounds coming from the valley, there were finally some people among the nobles who couldn't wait and couldn't sit still.
"Damn it, go in and take a look. If you find it, it's ours. It doesn't matter if you can't find it!"
"Yeah, let's go in too!"
"Um!"
...
With the first person taking the lead, a large number of responders immediately appeared behind.
Ma Xiaoquan followed most of the nobles into the valley, while Lu Xian was still at the entrance of the valley.
Seeing Ma Xiaoquan disappear, Mao Gang suddenly appeared next to Lu Xian and whispered: "How about we set fire to Tianjue Valley, so that all the treasures will be ours."
Lu Xian chuckled: "I think this idea is feasible, but it is definitely impossible to do it so blatantly. Can't the demon be able to control fire? Hehe, we are going to put the blame on it! Hehehe."
As soon as Mao Gang heard this, he also started humming.
...
Ma Xiaoquan, who was following the crowd, didn't know that it was because Lu Xian and Mao Gang were so excited that he actually found the treasure. Of course, this was all a story later.
The Tianjue Valley is very open, and it is midsummer. Standing in the Tianjue Valley, Ma Xiaoquan felt a cool feeling.
It's not that it's cool in the valley, but that Ma Xiaoquan always feels that there is a feeling in Tianjue Valley that he is very familiar with, a feeling that he can't put into words.
"Yuan, are you there?" Ma Xiaoquan tried calling Yuan in his left eye.
"Well, I'm here"
Ma Xiaoquan was overjoyed: "You are finally willing to talk to me."
In his left eye, Yuan Chuan said: "Sorry, I have been thinking about a few things these days. Haha, you will know about it later, eh? Where is this place? Why do I feel so familiar?"
Ma Xiaoquan was a little surprised. No wonder he had an indescribable feeling in his heart. Yuan Yuan also felt something about this place.
"Have you been here?"
Yuan thought for a moment and responded: "Huang Jingming has been here!"
Ma Xiaoquan was shocked and asked: "What is he doing here?"
Yuan shook his head: "I can't remember clearly either."
Ma Xiaoquan was surprised and said: "You have things that you can't remember clearly? Are you kidding me?"
Yuan chuckled: "Now is not the time to tell you everything. When your wife Ling'er comes, I will naturally tell you."
"All right"
...
Common people and some nobles have already begun to hunt for treasures. Since Yuan said that Huang Jingming had been here before, Ma Xiaoquan naturally would not neglect him anymore. Although he couldn't figure it out, but Yuan had said it, then in Tianjue Valley,
, there must be something there.
Rather than believing that something exists or not, Ma Xiaoquan also took out his tools and followed the others to find the treasure.
