I smiled and said, "Then what do you think we should do with him? Kill him? Then come on. If you can do this, we'll do it this way."
"I...then...even if I don't kill him, I won't give him anything. I just tell him to get out."
Pigtail also echoed: "That's right, we worked hard to get such a little treasure, there are only a few in total, and now we have to give him such a big gold nugget, it's too cheap for him."
I said that I must have my reasons for doing this, and that was settled.
I glanced at him and turned my head away. He looked very panicked. After he finished, he waved his hand to me and said, "I never thought about killing you. I didn't agree with them when they discussed it. When you assigned the task in the first place, I just said I wanted to stand guard outside, do you remember this? I wanted to stand guard just because I didn’t want to do that dirty thing.”
This is indeed true. When the division of labor was first clarified, Head Partitioner did take the initiative to say that he wanted to stand guard at the door.
I also want to believe that what he said is true.
I patted his shoulder: "Don't worry, since I plan to give you this piece of gold, I have never thought about dealing with you. Brother Lei and I are not the same person. I think you are a very real person. This gold Take it, exchange it for money to start a small business when you go back, and live a steady life from now on."
"Then...then I'll say thank you first. Thank you very much."
He turned his head and took the horseshoe gold from my hand, glanced at it briefly and stuffed it into his pocket.
Maybe he was still worried about us and didn't dare to stay longer.
He pointed in the direction of Yuyang County: "I still have elderly people at home waiting for me to take care of them, so I'm going to leave on my own instead of joining you."
I waved my hand and motioned for him to go.
He was in a hurry when he walked further away, and he would look back after walking for a while, obviously because he was afraid that we would plot against him.
Jianzui watched him go away and muttered again: "Brother, you are too kind. You can just give him some money and send him away. Why give him such a big piece of gold? At least there is gold..."
The Chinese-character face interrupted the sharp mouth: "It makes sense for Brother Jianjun to do this. Otherwise, this guy didn't get the benefits, and the brothers are still dead. What if I go back and expose this matter? He will definitely do it if he gets the benefits. Keeping it secret is a kind of protection for us.”
"Oh, what you said makes sense."
I smiled and gently hit Sharp Mouth's shoulder with my hand: "Didn't you get shot? Doesn't it hurt anymore?"
Sharp Mouth chuckled: "Actually, it's nothing serious. I didn't hit any bones, just a little bit of flesh."
Zhao Hu immediately scolded: "Then you screamed like you were dying in the hall, as if you were about to die."
"I didn't mean to pretend. If I pretended to be miserable, the toad would no longer be wary of me, and naturally he wouldn't kill me."
"You...you are such a fucking coward. By the way, we didn't let Jianjun go in and die, but you still kept asking Jianjun to save you. You only have your own life in your eyes. I think you should follow Brother Lei and the others died inside together, like that..."
"okay!"
I quickly waved my hand: "Now that the matter is over, let's not talk so much. Let's go back and talk to the boss."
On the way back, we counted the treasures on several people.
In addition to the Night Pearl I brought out, they took a total of thirteen treasures, basically all of them were small and easy to hold.
Although there are few items, the quality is very high, especially the luminous pearl in my hand. I think that just by relying on this luminous pearl, we may make a lot of money. This trip can be regarded as a big gain.
It’s not in vain anyway.
Two days later, we returned to our base camp near Qingniu Town.
What makes me a little surprised is that Sister Xiao Yeyuan and Sister Yuan's subordinate are actually here.
When they saw us appearing, they immediately ran towards us.
"Jianjun! Zhao Hu!"
I was surprised and a little angry at the same time.
When I got there, I asked angrily: "Why are you here again? Didn't I tell you before that we might meet other tomb robbers. If they kill us, the first thing to do when we come back is I will silence you."
I was a little scared when I said this.
Because we did meet other tomb robbers and were almost killed by them.
If we are the ones who die and Toad, Brother Lei and the others come back, Sister Yuan, Xiaoye and the others will definitely suffer.
"Oh, don't rush to blame us. There must be a reason why we are here."
Sister Yuan had just run a little fast and was out of breath. She put her hands on her chest, trying to calm herself down.
Xiaoye explained from the side: "Yuyang County is carrying out special activities to crack down on tomb robbing and cultural relic smuggling crimes in the past two days. It is not safe for us to stay in the hotel, and we are also afraid that you will be caught as soon as you enter the city after going down the mountain. If any evidence of cultural relics is found from you, we will be completely ruined, so we have no choice but to wait for you here."
"Huh? Does that mean the county is unsafe? We can't go back to the county?"
"Well, it's best not to go back. We have also planned a new route in the past two days. Today we have to leave Yuyang County via the new route."
"Xiaoye, where should we go next? Can I rest for a while?" Jianzui walked up to Xiaoye at this time.
Xiaoye was about to speak when she suddenly glanced at Jizui's shoulder.
"What's wrong with you? Are you hurt?"
"Well, he was shot with a gun."
"By whom?"
Before Jianzui could say anything, Sister Yuan suddenly asked: "Hey, where is the other person named Lei? Why didn't he come back with you?"
"He's dead!" Zhao Hu said with a proud smile on his face.
"Dead? Really? How did you die?"
"Really, this guy is probably just a skeleton now, haha."
Sister Yuan patted Zhao Hu: "No, he is a bit annoying, but everyone is dead. It's not good for you to gloat about others' misfortune. Be careful that he turns into a ghost at night and pinches your nose."
"Gloating? I wanted to kill him myself, but it's a pity that God didn't give me this opportunity."
Sister Yuan is a smart person. She glanced at Sharp Mouth's shoulder and immediately realized what was going on.
"Did he plot against you? I have warned you a long time ago that he is not a good bird."
"That's not what happened. He almost shot me with a gun."
Then, a few of us told the three of us everything that happened.
After hearing this, Sister Yuan also cursed: "You deserve to die, and that guy named Toad deserves to die too. It's God's will that allowed you to escape."
At this time, Xiaoye asked me if I had any news about her father. I shook my head and said no. There were no traces of anyone else having set foot inside. We should be the first ones to go in.
As I said that, I took out the Night Pearl and gave it to Xiaoye: "Your news is indeed quite accurate. There really is a Night Pearl in it."
Xiaoye didn't seem to be very interested in this night pearl. She picked it up and looked at it briefly, and then gave it to Sister Yuan.
Sister Yuan looked at it for a moment and curled her lips indifferently: "Why does it look like a glass bead? How much is such a broken bead worth?"
I said it's daytime now, so it doesn't show its specialness. When it gets dark, you'll know how valuable it is.
Zhao Hu also teased Sister Yuan: "Sister Yuan, this is the treasure that your beloved brother Jianjun risked his life to get back. You actually said it was a broken pearl. Don't worry, your brother Jianjun will be sad."
