Fortunately, when we arrived at Shiqiao, Shiqiao was still alive.
Although the water level in the moat has surged, it has not yet submerged the stone bridge.
Due to the pouring of flash floods, the water surface was choppy. Shengzi, who had fallen into the river before, was also rolling in the water at this time.
Of course, it's just a tumbling corpse.
We immediately ran up the stone bridge, ran out of the underground palace, and came to the soldiers' tomb.
At this time, I looked back and saw that Brother Lei and the other three had just ran out of Tai Chi Hall.
Each of them was carrying a heavy sack and ran very slowly. Lei Ge even pulled a donkey out of the hall and wanted to put the sack on the donkey's back and lead it away.
The water level of the moat has risen again at this time, and it is about to overflow the stone bridge. The three of them are still a long way away from the stone bridge, and their speed is very slow. I think that when they run over, the stone bridge will definitely be destroyed. submerged.
Obviously, they will be buried here forever.
It just proves the old saying, people die for wealth and birds die for food.
"These three idiots, at this stage, are still running around with sacks on their backs. They are really asking for money rather than their lives." Zhao Hu laughed and cursed in relief at this time: "But you deserve it, just die, so we don't have to do anything." .”
At this time, the underground palace shook violently again. I felt that it would collapse at any time, so I told them not to take it lightly. The most important thing was to run out first.
Before leaving, Zhao Hu shouted to Brother Lei and the others: "Run quickly, the stone bridge is going to be flooded, and you won't be able to cross it later. Oh, by the way, I want to remind you, this water is corrosive." Yes, please don’t wade through the water.”
Brother Lei was probably very anxious and responded loudly: "Wait for us! Please help me later. We have a lot of treasures with us. We can share some with you when we go out. Don't leave in a hurry!"
"Haha, I'm afraid we can't help you. The water has already flooded the stone bridge. You just wait to die..."
"Okay, okay, don't follow him anymore, let's leave quickly, this is going to collapse." I pulled Zhao Hu and urged.
At this moment, a figure suddenly moved next to me. I thought it was a soldier or something waking up, which scared me so much.
It turns out that if you look closely, your head is split.
At that time, when we were leading the donkey to enter the underground palace, we knocked Xian Fentou unconscious here. We never thought that he would wake up now.
When he woke up and saw a few of us here, he turned his head and stared at us warily: "You... what do you want to do? Why do you want to hit me?"
Zhao Hu also gave me a wink at this time, and it seemed that he wanted to clear up his side. After all, he was from Toad.
But I feel that time is pressing, and escaping is the most important thing. Besides, Xiangfeng has been standing guard outside with Guozixian from the beginning to the end. He did not participate in the "rebellion" of Lei Ge and Toad, so I don't think there is any need to deal with him.
"Don't worry about him for now. Let's go out first."
After saying this, I led everyone to continue running outside, turning their heads. Although I didn't know what was going on, I just said that this place was going to collapse, and there were indeed rumblings everywhere, which was very scary. He must also know it. Danger.
So I ran with him.
When I ran out, I heard screams coming from the underground palace behind me. It must have been something happened to Brother Lei and the other three.
When we ran out of the tomb, there were constant loud and dull sounds inside, and the ground seemed to be shaking beneath our feet.
I felt it was still unsafe here, so I continued to ask everyone to run to the foot of the mountain. Before they could reach the foot of the mountain, a series of rumbling sounds came from above, and then a large column of smoke shot out from the door of the tomb, like a long dragon. The foot jumped dozens of meters away.
There was also a lot of smoke coming from the top of the mountain. When the smoke dissipated, the top of the mountain seemed to be a lot shorter, and it was obvious that the inside had collapsed.
At this time, Fanfentou asked us nervously and angrily: "Where are Toad and Brother Lei? What did you do to them?"
"Ha!" Zhao Hu snorted coldly: "You still have the fucking nerve to be angry here. In order to divide the treasure, they wanted to kill us with guns. Fortunately, God has eyes, the underground palace is about to collapse, and they are still I put my baby in it, now it’s fine, let’s stay with my baby in it for the rest of my life.”
He turned his head and glanced behind him, muttering: "They... they are all dead?"
I then told him what happened and explained to him that the reason why we beat him was because we guessed that Brother Lei might be causing trouble. After all, he was one of Toad, so we had to deal with him first. .
After listening, he turned his head and sighed deeply, then sat down on the ground.
"While we were having dinner, they talked about getting rid of you all if they got the treasure. I also advised them not to do this. After all, everyone came together to get rich, and no one wanted to risk their lives. But in the end, they still You’re hurting yourself, alas.”
"What do you mean? Have you discussed killing us before?" Zhao Hu immediately squatted down and grabbed the collar of his head.
He tilted his head and nodded: "Yes, during lunch, you all went to the toilet. Toad called Brother Lei and us together to discuss it. Alas, it's already come to this, so I know I’ll tell you everything.”
Then, he turned around and told us what he knew. I was shocked again.
It turns out that Toad and the others did not come here to look for the prince's tomb based on the legend, but Brother Lei leaked the news to others when he first negotiated cooperation with us.
He asked the man to keep it secret, but the man still leaked the news, and Toad found out.
Toad had been in this business before, but now he was short of money, so he thought of it.
When we first searched for the prince's tomb, Toad sent someone to follow us secretly. When we returned to Yuyang County after failing to find the tomb, he immediately took the people and set off.
The second time we came to the tomb door, the scream we heard was actually a toad killing someone.
They went in and met soldiers. When they escaped, one man was seriously injured. This man kept yelling at Toad to take him back to the county hospital for treatment.
Maybe he thought the toad didn't care about his injury and thought the toad was chirping.
In desperation, he dropped his harsh words and said that if he delayed treatment and became disabled or had the root cause of the disease, he would expose the matter later and let everyone go to jail.
His words aroused the murderous intention of the toad, and the toad decisively stabbed him to death with a knife.
In fact, I had guessed this before, but there was no evidence. If I had confirmed earlier that Toad had someone in his hands, I would have been more wary of him. How could I let him blackmail us in the Prince's Palace?
In any case, Xianfentou told us everything he knew, and I became less wary of him.
What's more, he is alone now, and he certainly can't afford to make any waves.
Zhao Hu also used his eyes to indicate to me how to deal with the partial head.
I took out a treasure from Zhao Hu, which was a gold horseshoe. Zhao Hu put it in his pocket at the last moment.
I gave the horseshoe gold to the side and said, "Take this thing, so that you don't have to worry about it in vain. Don't rush to make a move when you get back. Wait for a while to find a reliable person, or if you don't want it." , you can just sell it to us directly, we will give the money to..."
Before I finished speaking, the sharp-tongued person next to me became unhappy: "What's wrong with you? They are still planning to kill us. If you don't deal with him now, why don't you give him the treasure?"
