Chapter 90 Treasure
"Archaeology? I don't know anything about old things, why are you looking for me?" Wang Xiaohu didn't want to go. It was not difficult to get old things. He could exchange them for food in the Pigeon Market, but it was difficult to find something he liked.
"We don't want you to identify things, but to protect those experts," Jin Cancan explained.
Wang Xiaohu couldn't understand what she said, "Why did you ask me to go? And you two gentlemen, are you going too?"
"We won't go. Xiao Cancan came here to ask about some things that happened back then." Zhang Benchu put down the teacup and continued, "This ancient tomb... Actually, it can't be called an ancient tomb. It should be called a treasure house. We killed a group of people back then..."
"We found a treasure map on their leader. All these years, we thought it was just a joke. But recently, we have some different clues." Li Si took over the conversation and said, "Xiao Hu, do you still remember the group of people who killed Xiao Rizi that night? Do you remember the dagger in the hand of the leader?"
"I know, that dagger is very sharp and it looks like an old item to me. Is there any connection?" Wang Xiaohu said in disbelief.
"Wait a minute, Wang Wu will bring the treasure map here right away." As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Wu was seen trotting into the yard.
"Hello, Third Uncle." As a junior, Wang Xiaohu had to say hello first.
"Xiao Hu is here too, so it's a good opportunity for us to take a look together." Wang Wu put a golden cloth strip in his hand on the table, "Back then, many people wanted to steal old items from the Forbidden City. This is the loot from that year. Take a look at the pattern and see if it's the same."
Zhang Benchu picked up another piece of paper, which also had an unknown shape drawn on it, and it looked like it had three eyes.
"Exactly the same. Is this pattern on the dagger?" Wang Xiaohu asked a nonsense question.
As expected, Jin Cancan rolled his eyes immediately and said, "Why have you become so stupid? Why would we bother with the pattern on the dagger if it's not there?"
"I just want to ask what's wrong. Do you understand being rigorous?" Wang Xiaohu said harshly, and then immediately changed the subject, "It seems that the person who stole it back then was living a simple life. But how come this map only looks like half of it?"
"I guess they divided the loot unevenly among themselves, so it was split into two." Zhang Benchu put down the paper and guessed.
"That makes sense. You guys are more experienced." Wang Xiaohu flattered them. "Since there's only half a map, I guess you won't need me, right?"
"It can be useful. Take another look at the map. Doesn't it look familiar? There are several locks clearly drawn on it. You can open locks, so the map thought of you." Jin Cancan said enviously. It's true that some strange skills are good, and all the credit comes to you, unlike her who has to rely on others for help.
This mission was originally assigned directly to Wang Xiaohu, but Jin Cancan intercepted it after knowing about it. Lao Zhu also felt that Wang Xiaohu had been too popular recently and was afraid of being the first to stand out, so he agreed to let Jin Cancan participate as well. The two team leaders worked together with the public security protection experts, so that the credit could be shared equally in the future.
Wang Xiaohu took a closer look and found that it was indeed the case. The map also looked a little familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it.
After I was demobilized, I only went to Changping District in the surrounding area of the city.
"It's a mountainous place, and it's surrounded by tigers and dragons..."
"Yes, you have a good eye! It is Baihujian, but Baihujian is too large. It is not easy to find with more than 10,000 acres. You two may have some trouble finding it." Wang Wu grew up in Changping District and had some knowledge of the area.
"It doesn't matter. Just don't look for it like looking for a needle in a haystack. It's better to have clues before going." Wang Xiaohu was embarrassed. He just made up what he said about the tiger sitting in the dragon's coil. He didn't expect it to be true.
But Baihujian looks so familiar, as if I’ve heard it there before.
Snap! ~~!
A flash of lightning flashed through Wang Xiaohu's mind. Jin Fengshou, his fallen comrade-in-arms, seemed to have said that Baihu Gorge was next to his home.
"Is there a Nanliu Village beside the Baihu Stream?" Wang Xiaohu asked carefully.
"Yes, it seems that Xiaohu also knows the legend of Nanliu Village. We also have this guess and are about to report it." Wang Wu nodded with satisfaction.
Wang Xiaohu could only nod awkwardly. What else could he do? He could only pretend to be confused. It was an accidental blessing in disguise.
"In other words, the higher-ups are afraid that this treasure trove has been stolen by people who live a carefree life, so they want to carry out a rescue excavation as soon as possible?" Wang Xiaohu asked Jin Cancan.
"That's probably the case. Anyway, it's none of our business. We are mainly security experts and we are just afraid of any remnants." Jin Cancan was very professional and cooperative when talking about work, which made Wang Xiaohu feel a little more favorable towards her. It seems that he doesn't have to avoid her in everything in the future.
"Then when they are ready, just notify me." Wang Xiaohu stood up and bowed, saying, "Grandfathers, I'll be leaving first."
"Wait, Xiaohu, you haven't told me why you came to see me." Zhang Benchu stopped Wang Xiaohu who was about to leave and said with a smile.
Wang Xiaohu realized that he had forgotten something important, and slapped his forehead and said, "Look, I have forgotten important things. So, I just got a house, and I want you to make me a set of furniture."
"Furniture? That's easy. Just tell me after you buy the wood." Zhang Benchu said it was no problem on the spot.
"Okay, thank you Grandpa Zhang. Um...how much money should I give?" Wang Xiaohu looked at Wang Wu for help and asked.
"You are ignorant. Get out of here!" Wang Wu waved his hand, signaling for him to leave quickly.
Wang Xiaohu had no choice but to bow and leave quickly, as he would be late for work if he continued chatting.
In the following days, the steel rolling mill was Qin Huairu's home ground.
Every day when he comes to work, there are some gossips, and no one knows who spreads them. After counting for a week, Wang Xiaohu found that Qin Huairu has five loyal dogs around her.
That’s amazing! Even the idiot has to move to the back row.
This caused Sha Zhuhe to feel a sense of crisis, so he gave more. Wang Xiaohu was stunned by this action. Dogs want to compete, right?
On this day, a lot of wood was transported to the courtyard, including those from Yan Bugui's family, Liu Haizhong's family, and Xu Damao's family.
Wang Xiaohu’s has not arrived yet. He doesn’t like this ordinary pine wood and wants to wait and see if there are any better ones.
"Xiao Hu, look, the wood we bought is 15% cheaper than the market price, and the carpenter we hired is also much cheaper than others. Do you regret it?" Yan Bugui came over and started to show off proudly.
It was a pity that the scene he wanted did not appear. Wang Xiaohu said indifferently: "I may not have other things, but I will have money. I want to use the best wood and the best craftsmen to make my full set of furniture. There is no other way. My house is the best, and I want the best me to live in it."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the yard pointed at Wang Xiaohu in shock, and finally uttered in unison: Shame on you!
"Thank you for the compliment~" Wang Xiaohu is not afraid. Why should he have any shame?
"If you ask me, we've all done thirty-six legs. I'd even like to do seventy-two legs. Those who are getting married are preparing to get married, and those who are not married are preparing the wedding house. I just don't know if you, Shazhu, are going to do it." Xu Damao certainly wouldn't miss the opportunity to laugh at Shazhu. This time, he not only showed off that he was going to do seventy-two legs, but also said that Shazhu wasn't destined to do that.
"Humph, what's so great about that? When I get married, I'm going to make 108 legs!"
One hundred and eight?
Wang Xiaohu was stunned by what he said, and blurted out: "I only know about 108 heroes, but I haven't heard of 108 legs?"
"I have 72 rules for getting married, plus 36 rules for Yu Shui's marriage, that's 108!" Sha Zhu said as if it was a matter of course, tapping the ground with his left foot, obviously feeling guilty. "And didn't Zhang Jianguo do it either? Didn't he say he wanted to get married too?"
Speaking of Zhang Jianguo, everyone gathered in a circle, and Wang Xiaohu also remembered that he hadn't seen this person for two days.
"Zhang Wannian, where is your son?" Yi Zhonghai asked. There were some young people getting married in the courtyard, so he came out to watch the fun. As long as there was no fighting, Yi Zhonghai still liked this kind of occasion very much.
"He...he went to his hometown in the countryside." Zhang Wannian avoided his gaze and didn't dare to look him in the eye.
Yi Zhonghai did not continue to ask, as he just asked out of concern.
Two days later, in the morning.
There was violent knock on Wang Xiaohu's door.
Wang Dalu opened the door and saw Zhang Wannian standing at the door and said anxiously: "Is Xiaohu here? I have something to talk to him about."
"Xiao Hu, your uncle Zhang is looking for you."
Wang Xiaohu got up reluctantly, as he hadn't signed in on anything in the mornings these days. When he opened the system, he saw that all he saw were added attributes, either 0.1 or 0.2. He was so angry that he almost uninstalled the system.
"Uncle Zhang, what are you looking for?" Wang Xiaohu came out, but Zhang Wannian knelt down as soon as he entered the room, and said in a trembling voice, "Xiaohu, I have no other choice. Jianguo is missing."
