Chapter 3436 Chapter 3438 [Treasure under the Yellow Sand]

The affairs in Dasuo City did not last long, and on the third day I lost faith.

 The reason is also very simple. As emperor and courtier, Cao Shaoqin's head was chopped off, and his body was already cold.

If Chang Yanxiao is smart enough, he should return to Beijing as soon as possible to fight for power.

Otherwise, even if he helped Cao Shaoqin find the murderer, Cao Shaoqin would not be able to come back from the dead, let alone help him get an official promotion, so he still had to rely on himself.

But if he had to rely on himself, he couldn't stay in Chang'an and had to rush back as soon as possible. Otherwise, someone will take his place every minute.

Once Chang Yanxiao led his army away, how could the local officials take Cao Shaoqin's murder seriously?

 After all, a dead Governor of Dongchang is not as useful as a living slave.

They even regretted it. If they had known that Cao Shaoqin would die, they wouldn't have spent so much time entertaining him.

 …

 A month later, Xiang Nan and his five men left Chang'an and returned to Yumen.

Although there are still wanted notices posted on the towns and checkpoints along the way for Jin Xiangyu, Zhou Huaian, Jinbao, Yuying and others, they are obviously dusty and have not been replaced for a long time.

This also means that the imperial court's wanted order for them has lost its popularity, and even the soldiers at the checkpoints are not inspecting them strictly.

 The five of them walked slowly all the way, and after half a month, they finally returned to the original Longmen Inn. I saw that this place had become a ruin. There were signs of being searched and burned.

 All in all, the Longmen Inn of the past no longer exists.

“Wang Badan, it’s all your fault, my hard work is all over!” When Jin Xiangyu saw it, he couldn’t help but said angrily.

"Have you scolded me enough? In the future, the things I will help you take out from the desert will be enough to build 10,000 such inns." Xiang Nan gave her a cold look, "Besides, this inn is a black shop. It shouldn’t exist in the world.”

When Jin Xiangyu heard this, he stopped talking.

 Subsequently, in order to avoid attracting attention, they entered the cave under the inn.

 The cave under the inn is very large, enough to hide hundreds of people.

It turns out that this is an underground cave that leads directly to an underground river. The people of Heishui City used to get water from this cave.

Later Jin Xiangyu learned the secret of the treasure of Blackwater City from an ancient book, so he recruited a group of strong men and built the Longmen Inn here. While doing the illegal business of making money and killing people, he is waiting for the black sandstorm that happens once in sixty years.

 …

They stayed in the secret passage for a few days. Although the inn had been burned down, fortunately they all brought dry food, dried meat and the like. In addition, there is no shortage of water in the cave, so we can still stay there.

Over the past few days, Xiang Nan has been using the Star Feng Shui technique recorded in the "Sixteen-Character Yin-Yang Feng Shui Secret Technique" to find the location of the Blackwater City palace.

Because according to ancient records, the defenders of Blackwater City moved all the treasures in the city to the palace and eventually died for their country. Therefore, all the treasures are in the palace of Dabai Shangguo.

 Since it is the location of the royal palace, the feng shui must be the best.

It only took Xiang Nan two days to find the location of Dabai Shangguo's palace, so he started digging holes with a cyclone shovel at night.

The cyclone shovel is a sharp tool in the hands of tomb robbers. The handle can be long or short. When it is used, the soil, sand and gravel are thrown away one after another, as if being swept away by a whirlwind, hence the name.

Xiang Nan knew that he wanted to build a robbery hole, so he specially commissioned the blacksmith in Chang'an City to build it.

He inherited the ability of the partridge whistle, and he also has good martial arts. He can dig up yellow sand very quickly, almost faster than a mouse digging a hole.

 Without even a meal, he had already dug the hole to the top of the palace in Blackwater City and dug out the gold bricks and blue tiles laid on the top. "It's really here." Jin Xiangyu said excitedly when he saw the gold bricks and blue tiles that Xiang Nan brought up.

 She was originally worried that Xiang Nan was bragging, but she didn't expect that he was actually a bit off.

"That's natural, why should I lie to you." Xiang Nan nodded, "We can go down after the wind has cleared. By then, the treasure inside will be yours."

 “You don’t want it?” Jin Xiangyu said in surprise.

Xiang Nan waved his hand, "Money is really not important to me."

　　Not to mention that he already has hundreds of thousands of taels of silver in his hands, even if he doesn't have a penny, it is not an important matter to him.

 After all, with his ability, it is really easy to make a fortune.

Jin Xiangyu curled her lips, "I'm afraid you are just saying nice things. If you really see the treasures hidden in the palace, I'm afraid you will regret it immediately."

Xiang Nan smiled slightly and said, "The sparrow knows the ambition of the swan."

"You~" Jin Xiangyu suddenly became angry, but she also knew that she was definitely no match for Xiang Nan when it came to fighting, so she had no choice but to swallow her breath at the moment.

 …

About a stick of incense later, Xiang Nan estimated that the air in the palace was almost gone, so he called Jin Xiangyu to go down and get the treasure.

Jin Xiangyu waved his hand, "It's less than two months for the party. I have to wait at least two months for them to arrive before I can collect the treasure."

"I didn't expect you to be so generous." Xiang Nan said in surprise.

With a personality like Jin Xiangyu, who is so greedy for money, it is really rare that he can still think about sharing wealth and honor with his subordinates.

"Do you think there is nothing else in my eyes except money?" Jin Xiangyu gave him a white look, as if he was concerned about his image in Xiang Nan's mind.

 “I don’t dare, it’s disrespectful anyway.” Xiang Nan cupped his hands and said.

 Then everyone returned to the cave.

Two days later, after everyone had finished lunch, Xiang Nanzheng was teaching Yuying and Jinbao how to read. At this moment, he suddenly heard a voice coming from above.

 “The shopkeeper’s~”, “the boss’s wife~”

Jin Xiangyu heard the sound and quickly looked from the entrance of the cave. Then he happily pushed open the secret passage and ran out, "Xiao Heizi, Shunzi, Sanliang, Diao Buyu... Are you all okay? Great!"

"We were wanted originally, but we saw the opportunity quickly and followed Diao Buyu to Tatar." Several people explained, "After more than a month, we found that everything was fine, so we ran back."

When Jin Xiangyu heard this, he immediately laughed and said, "Okay, you guys are really smart."

"Shopkeeper, you're okay too, that's great." Heizi, Shunzi, Sanliang and Diao Buyu also said happily.

"You are here at the right time. We have dug out the robbery hole and are waiting to move out the treasures." Jin Xiangyu said again.

 “Really?” They were very happy when they heard it.

Originally, they planned to find a different place to start a new business after finding the proprietress. No matter how chaotic the world is, their profession will never worry about running out of business.

Unexpectedly, Jin Xiangyu actually dug out Blackwater City. This was really an unexpected surprise.

"Of course. If I hadn't been waiting for you guys, I would have gone down long ago." Jin Xiangyu said with a smile.
