Building a New World

Chapter 1952: Report

Because of last night's "dream", Niu Xi, who got up early in the morning, was restless and couldn't calm down.

Niu Shun came over and asked him to go up the mountain together and continue to hunt for treasure in the maze, but Niu Xi couldn't calm down at all.

Probably seeing that Niu Xi was in a strange situation, Niu Shun asked casually.

During this time, the two of them went through the maze and hunted for treasures together, and they had a good relationship with each other. Niu Xi did not hide it and told about the strange dream he had last night.

Seeing his state, I felt that it was probably impossible to go to the maze with me today. After all, you need to be calm in the maze to find a way out.

So Niu Shun decided to take a day off and let Niu Xi rest at home.

I might as well stay at home, after all, I haven't had a break for a long time. In the past, it was because I had to cut firewood and sell it for money, but now there is a lot of money under the bed. I will not worry about food and drink in the next life. It is not a big deal to take a day off to rejuvenate.

Niu Xi wandered around the house, unable to sit still all morning, always thinking about that strange dream that was so real.

At noon, Yang Jie and his servants arrived in front of his house in a panic.

"Xizi, something happened in the county!" Yang Jie looked worried. "A monster suddenly entered the city, causing chaos."

People from the Yang family would not be so bored as to chat with him about interesting things in the county. As soon as he heard this, Niu Xi immediately had strange dreams in his mind, especially the monster: "Where is my dad! Did something happen to my dad?!"

"You, don't be anxious! Don't be anxious!" Yang Jie was worried that Niu Xi would lose control after hearing the truth of the matter, so he tried his best to comfort him, and then said to him, "My family rushed over to report the news. During dinner this morning, A monster broke into my house and took Uncle Niu away! "

"Ah!!" After hearing this, Niu Xi felt dizzy and almost fell down.

"Xizi, don't be anxious!" The Yang family hurriedly asked two maids to come forward to help him, but they did not dare to go over, fearing that Niu Xi would burst out and hurt others. He wouldn't attack two weak maids, would he? He quickly said, "Uncle Niu is not in danger for the time being."

"What's not dangerous? My father was captured by monsters! Monsters eat people!!" Niu Xi really couldn't do anything to the two women. He looked at Yang Jie angrily and said, "If your family hadn't called my father over, , there will be no such thing!”

"Yes! That's the truth!" Yang Jie couldn't refute, "But we didn't expect this. The most important thing right now is

It is time to rescue Uncle Niu. Don't worry, the person was lost in our home, and we will do our best to help you bring him back safely! "

"How to bring it back? That's a man-eating monster!!" Niu Xi was extremely anxious.

"My father said in the letter, it seems that the monster is not catching people to eat." Yang Jie hurriedly took out the letter and handed it to Niu Xi, "Look, the monster said that I would send more money and wine."

"I don't understand this!" Niu Xi said anxiously, "The monster wants money and wine? Are you kidding me?"

"It's true! Although I don't really believe it, that's what my father said about the words left by monsters."

"You monster, you monster!" Niu Xi suddenly turned around, "Go and invite two monks, they can definitely save my father!"

"No!" Yang Jie heard this and hurriedly stopped him.

"Of course you need monks to deal with monsters, why did you stop me?" Niu Xi shouted anxiously.

Yang Jie hurriedly explained: "Xizi, don't worry! It's just that the monster said that if we ask the county soldiers or monks for help, we will eat your father!"

"What?!"

"Really, that's what my father said in the letter." Yang Jie said, "He said that the monster wanted a thousand taels of silver and a thousand catties of wine, and he had to send someone to Ye Boar Ridge. Don't worry, he was caught at my house. I Dad is already raising money and sending people to buy fine wine. As long as Uncle Niu can be rescued, this won't be a problem! It's just that it's not that easy to collect a thousand taels of silver, it will take some time."

"What are you talking about? What monster? What silver wine?" Niu Shun probably heard what was going on here, so he came to inquire.

"It's okay!" Yang Jie immediately mumbled when he saw him coming.

However, Niu Xi did not hesitate and turned to him and said, "Shunzi, my father was captured by a monster in Tong County!"

"Ah?!" Niu Shun was startled, "What's going on?"

Yang Jie quickly winked at Niu Xi and said, "Xizi, you can't talk nonsense about this."

"It's okay! Shunzi's relationship with me is safe." Niu Xi frowned, "Is my father really safe?"

"At least" Yang Jie looked at Niu Shun and hesitated for a few seconds, "it seems safe, as long as he can get money and wine for him. Wine is not a problem. My father has a good relationship with several wine merchants in the county, so he can definitely get it. . It just takes a few days to raise a thousand taels of silver. My family’s money is invested in business, and it will take time to get that much cash, but you can rest assured that our family will definitely provide it!”

"How many days? Then if the monster gets anxious, wouldn't my father be in danger?" Niu Xi said in a panic.

"We will definitely try our best!" Yang Jie said, "Xizi, shall I take you to the county seat? Let's discuss how to rescue Uncle Niu together. Don't worry, no matter what the cost, we will definitely let Uncle Niu go home safely!"

"A thousand taels of silver?" Niu Shun blinked, suddenly stretched out his hand to pull Niu Xi aside, and whispered in his ear, "Xizi, your father will be in danger if you wait for a few days! If the monster really only wants silver and wine, Yang You can prepare the wine as soon as possible, there is money! What we brought back these days is more than just a thousand taels of silver!"

Niu Xi's eyes lit up, and then he became worried again: "But that money, we originally planned"

"Is the plan more important or your father's life?" Niu Shun whispered, "Uncle Niu is very good to me, I don't want him to get into trouble."

"What about the maze? If people know that we took out such a large sum of money, How to explain when people ask? "

"Just find a way to convince the Yang family," Niu Shun's brain was quite useful at this time, "Tell the outsiders that it was the Yang family who paid the money. Anyway, they themselves said that they are willing to take the money, and you can ask them to return it when the time comes. As for the Yang family, you don't need to tell them about the maze, just say that the silver was secretly given to you by the living immortal when he gave you the elixir."

"Yes!" Niu Xi nodded repeatedly, "Just do as you say! But in broad daylight, how can you avoid the eyes of the villagers, or even avoid the attention of the Yang family, and take the silver out from under the bed at home? "

"Don't worry! Now the villagers are either helping at the Taoist temple or working in the fields. Few are at home. Lunch is still about an hour away!" Niu Shun whispered, "I'll take the Yang family away first, and you hurry up to pull the silver with the donkey cart!"

"Okay! I'll try to be careful."

"Hurry up, we put it very flat and it's easy to count. But it's a bit tiring to move a thousand taels of silver by one person, you have to hurry. "
