Building a New World

Chapter 1883: Indirect Attack

Using the paper and pen that Jia Zhengjin picked up and charcoal as ink, Niu Xi wrote a note.

The general idea was "Niu Xi helped Niu Shun get the treasure that his mother had told him in her dream, and Niu Shun gave him half of it, and he would never regret it."

Although Niu Xi was not well educated, his handwriting was crooked, and the words written on this broken pen and paper, plus the charcoal as ink, were blurry and not very clear. But both of them were satisfied and felt at ease.

After collecting the note, the matter was considered an agreement.

Jia Zhengjin breathed a sigh of relief, everything went very smoothly, and it was going in the direction he wanted.

Although he didn't know which of Niu Xi's friends Yue Lang had transformed into, as long as he used the treasure to firmly fix Niu Xi by his side within this month, there would be no room for Yue Lang to intervene.

At that time, he could not only stop Yue Lang from doing bad things, but also deal with the problems of Niu Xi and his son nearby.

Niu Xi was also very excited at this moment, and he was restless.

Although he hadn't seen the treasure yet, Niu Shun was well-known in the village for being honest, even too honest and being laughed at. He would definitely not lie, so you can rest assured.

Moreover, stories about ghosts and gods teaching magic or giving adventures in dreams were often heard since childhood.

It is said that the emperor far away in the capital had a dream from a god when he was young, so he could have the hegemony he has today.

Although it was Niu Shun who was dreamed, he first came to him, first because he needed his help and second because he trusted him.

Niu Xi was excited and grateful.

He was excited because he might really become rich. If Niu Shun got the treasure, he could also get more money than he could spend in this life.

He was grateful that although the two of them didn't say much in this life, he could trust him so much and help him make a fortune. In the future, he would be his brother, and there was nothing to say.

After collecting the receipt, Niu Xi was still very nervous and took deep breaths to adjust his emotions: "Shunzi, when will we go up the mountain tomorrow? Will there really be no wolves, tigers and leopards under the cliff? It's just the two of us, isn't it a bit dangerous?"

"Don't worry, didn't I go to explore the road today?" Jia Zhengjin said, "Just be careful of poisonous snakes and insects. We can bring a hatchet, and do you have a hunting bow at home?"

"The old man has an old bow, I don't know if it can still be used."

"Take it! There is a river on the other side of the cliff.

If we really encounter wolves, tigers and leopards, we will run to the river and swim along the water. I think those wolves, tigers and leopards dare not go into the water."

"What if they go into the water?"

"Then they should also chase "We won't meet them." Jia Zhengjin shook his head, "Besides, we may not meet them."

"That's right."

"We have agreed to go to the mountain together from tomorrow. Your foxes... um, your friends, should we think of a way first..."

"That's not a problem. I'll tell Hou Li tomorrow morning. He'll probably find it strange that I'm going up the mountain to chop wood. But he will definitely help me tell other friends that they won't come to see me during this period."

"Your friends..." Jia Zhengjin pretended to be curious and asked, "I heard that they are all heroes in the county?"

"Heroes" is not a good word here. Many scoundrels call themselves "knights", but they do all kinds of sneaky things and bring disaster to the village.

Niu Xi looked a little embarrassed: "I guess so! But we just go to the casino to play, or walk around the street, we don't harass the people, we are different from those so-called heroes."

"Really?" Jia Zhengjin didn't care about this, he rolled his eyes and asked tentatively, "I have never met your heroes friends, I am a little curious. What kind of people are they usually like? Are they weird?"

Speaking of friends, Niu Xi became a little interested: "Not weird, in fact, everyone is the same. My friends are just a little playful and a little lazy, and their character is not too bad. And everyone is very loyal and will never betray friends."

"Is that so?" Jia Zhengjin blinked, "Do they usually have some weird behaviors?"

"They are actually weird every day," Niu Xi laughed, "Speaking of which, Hou Li has been teasing me recently, asking me if I want to work as a helper at the home of the rich man Feng in the county. He is the one I like to hide from the most, so weird!"

Hearing this, Jia Zhengjin's eyes lit up.

Could this Hou Li be Yue Lang's incarnation? Yue Lang didn't know who he was incarnated as, but he probably had the same idea, wanting to bring Niu Xi to his side so that he could brainwash him all the time and turn the gambling game in the direction he expected.

Of course, the possibility of other people cannot be ruled out. Perhaps Hou Li just behaved a little strangely.

In any case, let's list this person Hou Li as a suspicious target.

"Xizi, no matter what happens with your friends, don't be together recently." Jia Zhengjin said, "I'm not worried that you will let it slip, but from tomorrow on, we have to concentrate on studying the maze and try to take out the treasure. When we both become rich, you can play with those friends however you want."

"Don't worry! I know the urgency of the matter." Niu Xi nodded, "I promise you, I will do my best to do it. But even if we enter the maze, how can we transport the treasure back after getting it? And we can't be discovered!"

"It's simple!" Jia Zhengjin said with a smile, "Didn't we agree to go chop wood? When the time comes, hide the gold and silver treasures you find in the firewood and move them to my house first. Then, when it's late at night, we can find a safe place to move the treasure."

"This method is okay." Niu Xi nodded slightly, stood up and approached, "The question is where is the safest place to bury the treasure?"

"I plan to start work overnight and dig a secret room under the bed." Jia Zhengjin put his hand to his mouth and said softly, "There is mud under my feet, which is actually very easy to dig."

"Can it work?" Niu Xi turned his head to look at the dry ground. The soil should be quite hard.

"If it doesn't work, we'll think of a way tomorrow. We'll always think of one!"

"Isn't Old Hu in the north of the village selling buns in the county? His house is empty and nobody uses it." Niu Xi thought for a while, "Why don't we rent it?"

"No!" Jia Zhengjin hurriedly stopped him, "Why rent it? If we rent a house for nothing, won't the villagers ask? Then we'll be exposed in a few words."

"That's right!" Niu Xi patted his head, "I didn't think of that."

"Anyway, I'll try to dig a secret cave to bury the treasure overnight. If it doesn't work, we'll think of other ways." Jia Zhengjin said, "You go back to rest tonight, and remember to tell those friends tomorrow morning."

"Okay! Then I'll go home first?" Niu Xi stood up.

"Well! Remember to go up the mountain with me tomorrow, countless treasures are waiting for us. You must never tell this to anyone!"

"I cover my mouth when I sleep, so I won't leak it even if I talk in my sleep!" Niu Xi nodded vigorously, "Then I'll go home?"

"Go back! See you tomorrow!"

"Okay, see you tomorrow!"
