When the whistle saw that everyone was ready, he took out the Ang Qing chicken from the bamboo basket. He saw the rooster Caiyu Kinsuke. It seemed to be able to sense that there was a deadly enemy hidden in the Pingshan ancient tomb, and knew that there would be a life-and-death fight today.

After a bloody battle, he immediately raised his head and looked up, fluttering his wings and roaring angrily, his spirit seemed particularly exciting.

The Partridge Whistle nodded secretly. He didn't care whether the rooster could understand human speech or not, and said to it in public: "We all know that you are not an ordinary chicken, and we can't bear your death at the hands of ordinary people, so we removed you from the mountain people's home."

Rescued from the butcher's knife.

We are going to enter this underground palace today, and it is expected that there will be a bloody battle. You have to show off all your abilities today, so don’t let the reputation of the Furious Golden Rooster be ruined, and don’t let us live up to your life-saving grace.”

The dozen or so Xiling bandits saw this and knew that the Angry Chicken could sweep poisonous insects and centipedes out of graves. They all heard Chen Yulou say that there was a six-winged centipede in the deep stream, which was definitely not something that ordinary firearms could resist.

I thought: As long as this big rooster can detoxify a group of poisonous people and move mountains and mountains to steal treasures in tombs, I can call you "Chicken Master" from now on. Our fortune and life will be tied to you.

After the partridge whistle gave instructions to Nu Qingji, he immediately separated out four people, two of whom went to Pingshan Mountain to report to Chen Yulou, while the other two stayed here to wait for Chen Yulou to come down.

The rest of the people followed the partridge whistle to visit the tomb first.

After the arrangements were properly made, he led everyone into the robbery cave. The thieves all carried a lot of iron nails on their bodies. After walking a while, he nailed two nails on the wall of the robbery cave. The two long nails crossed each other, and then put the simple leather lantern

Put one on the stand as a lighting reminder.

The cave dug by the Chuanshan Cave Lingjia is so wide and flat that one only needs to bend down to move forward.

The length of the Thief's Cave is much shorter than what Partridge Whistle had previously estimated, but it is still a distance of several hundred steps.

The group of thieves carefully drilled the hole and walked slowly, and it took them a long time to reach the end of the hole.

The place where the thieves came out of the cave happened to be a sloping ramp, and the stone slabs on the ramp had been pushed away.

The group of thieves who came in held up torches and looked around. They saw that the lower part was blocked by huge stones, leaving no room for them to take advantage of. They could only go up the slope.

Partridge Whistle and others entered the robbery cave. Chen Yulou was not idle on the mountain. The sound of explosives blasting in the mountain was intermittent. However, after most of the day, the unprofessional engineering troops had not revealed anything.

.

Chen Yulou, Zhang Lin, and Luo Laowai were sitting leisurely on chairs. Not far away, engineers buried explosives, detonated them, and started over and over again.

Luo Laowai took a sip of tea and said, "I told you to keep your head. If it explodes like this, the underground palace won't collapse, right?"

Chen Yulou said: "Don't worry, Luo Shuai, this bottle of mountain is so high, how can it be so easy to explode?

Besides, this is a place in Shanyang. Although the place we chose for blasting is a weak point, it is still comparatively speaking.

Exploding from the front will not be effective even for a day or two. Instead of worrying about blowing up the underground palace, it is better to worry about whether you have brought enough medicine."

Luo Laowai said: "That's right! As long as the explosion doesn't collapse the underground palace and doesn't hurt my treasures, it's fine. As for the medicine? As much as you need, I can prepare enough."

After saying this, he greeted the adjutant and said: "Little Yangzi, tell the brothers to add some medicine and blow it up hard for me to blow up this mountain of bottles."

"Yes, Luo Shuai!"

The adjutant received the order and said to the engineers in the distance: "Commander Luo has an order, add more medicine!"

It was a hot summer day, so a few people had nothing to do.

Naluo Laowai suddenly saw bird droppings on the ground, stepped forward to pick it up, blew it in front of his mouth, and heard Chen Yulou said: "Do you know what this is?"

When Chen Yulou heard this, he looked at Luo Laowai in confusion.

Seeing Chen Yulou's doubts, Naluo Laowai secretly thought to himself: The boss was born in the richest family in Xiangyin. He has a huge wealth and is well clothed and well-fed. How can he know how hard it is for others? Now he started to show off his experience.

He said, "This is bird droppings. It's edible, but there's some truth in it."

Then he threw the thing into his mouth, smashed it a few times and swallowed it.

When Chen Yulou saw it, he was surprised and said: "I would like to hear the details!"

Seeing that the person he admired most asked him for advice, Luo Laowai immediately felt proud and sighed: "Not all of these bird droppings are edible. One of the edible ones is the bird droppings of wild geese.

Pick it up and take it home, wash it with water, and you might find some wheat or corn kernels inside."

Luo Laowai clasped his five fingers together and gestured: "Put a small handful like this, add water to make gruel, and that's enough food for the family for a few days.

There is also the guano of these waterfowl, they eat fish and shrimps.

Take the bird poop home, wash it a little, dry it in the sun, put it in a steamer and steam it, and it will be a dry meal. But don't worry, it won't stink."

Chen Yulou cupped his hands and said: "I didn't expect that there are so many explanations for this bird droppings. Chen has learned a lesson."

Luo Laowai sighed and said helplessly: "This is all taught in life. When there was a drought in my hometown, the tree roots, turf, corn stalks... all the edible things were eaten. I had no choice but to scavenge for them in the bird droppings.

Eat.

Father Luo passed away early, and my mother raised me and my two younger siblings by herself. It was hard!

Later, I had no choice but to give the eldest me a wooden stick and ask me to go to Henan to join my relatives.

But when I got there, none of my relatives saw me. They avoided me like the god of plague. Why? Because I am too poor to visit relatives!

They ignored me and drove me away. I lived on the streets and almost starved to death.

From then on, Lao Luo, I vowed to live a good life and let them see that I, Lao Luo, am also a person with great abilities.

In order to survive, I turned into a bandit and learned how to chase corpses to make a living.

But I saw that I couldn't achieve anything big or make a fortune, so I started learning the business of using corpses to sell tobacco and soot, and then I slowly started to make it to where I am now.

To be honest, I am always in charge. When I saw my brother tending grain in Xiangyin that day, Lao Luo, I really admired you from the bottom of my heart.

If we say those refugees are lucky, they are much more lucky to have met such a kind person like you than they were back then, like Lao Luo."

Luo Laowai said, stood up and half-knelt down and said: "For such a kind person like the boss, I, Lao Luo, am not a thing. I actually got angry at you a few days ago and refused to listen to your orders. Lao Luo is here to apologize to the boss."

After hearing Luo Laowai talk about his past, Chen Yulou was filled with emotion. Luo Laowai knelt down and apologized for removing things from the tomb without authorization and for doing it alone when he was not around. He quickly stood up and helped him up and said:

"Speaking of which, brother, you are also a miserable person, but that is all in the past.

Now you and I, brothers, join forces to take the treasures from this bottle of mountain to help all the people and accomplish a great cause."

"That's right!" Luo Laowai laughed and said, "Grandma, if you have a gun these days, you will be the grass-headed king.

As long as we have this treasure from Pingshan, when I buy thousands of British rifles and dozens of cannons, we brothers will have the final say in these three Hunan provinces. But we can do whatever we want and achieve great things. It's no problem.

.”

Hearing this, Chen Yulou also nodded in praise.

The two of them understood each other, and then picked up other things.

Luo Laowai saw Zhang Lin sitting and meditating aside, thinking about his miraculous powers, so he walked up to him, waved his hand and said, "Hey! Taoist Priest!"

Seeing that Zhang Lin didn't respond, he asked Chen Yulou beside him doubtfully: "Are you asleep?"

Seeing this, Chen Yulou was speechless and said, "I'm talking to Luo Shuai, can you stay calm and not disturb the Taoist priest?"

When Luo Laowai heard this, he felt a little embarrassed and said, "I don't think the Taoist Master has great supernatural powers. I would like to ask the Taoist Master to tell me whether I, Lao Luo, can achieve great things in this life."

Chen Yulou said: "What's the worry? When you and I take all the treasures from Pingshan, why worry about not accomplishing the big thing?"

Luo Lao Wai touched his chin and thought for a moment and said: "That's true. When I have guns, cannons and people, I will first deal with the big and small warlords in Sanxiang, and then wait for the opportunity to conquer Guangdong and Yunnan, and then I can dominate one side. No matter who is unified at that time

Heshan, you and I, brothers, can all be crowned kings and prime ministers with this, it’s really a blessing from his grandma!”

When Zhang Lin heard this, he opened his eyes and looked at Luo Laowai in surprise, as if he was seeing him for the first time.

I didn't expect that the other party, who was illiterate, had such insight.

The land of Hunan and Guangdong has high mountains and dense forests. If it swallows this territory and then conquers Yunnan, it will be able to achieve the great cause of the South Vietnamese King Wu during the Qin Dynasty.

At that time, he will sit in the southeast and watch the world's events, and he can indeed use this to build a foundation.

But Zhang Lin was just a little surprised.

This land of Hunan and Guangdong has strong folk customs and complex humanities. Not to mention its high mountains and dense forests, it is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

In Zhang Lin's opinion, even if Luo Laowai gets this Pingshan treasure, his strength will only be able to dominate Sanxiang for a few years at most with the help of recruiting troops.

Just relying on his crooked soldiers who work hard on smoke and dust, if a war really breaks out, it will only take a few hours for them to be defeated by those truly elite troops.

Moreover, there is a generation of famous generals in Guangdong. If he takes action in the air, warlords like Luo Laowai, who are incompetent, will not be enough to fill their teeth.

Moreover, the Republic of China is currently engaged in the vigorous Northern Expedition, and those real big shots have no time to take care of small places like Sanxiang.

When the Northern Expedition is successful, it will be time to clean up local cancers like Luo Laowai and restore the unity of the country and the country.

By then, let alone Zongheng Sanxiang, if you don't care about it, it will be good to survive.

When the two of them saw Zhang Lin open his eyes, Chen Yulou scolded Luo Laowai: "Look at you, you are disturbing the Taoist priest!"

Hearing this, Luo Laowai sneered and said: "Taoist Master, you also know that Lao Luo and I are used to being careless. If I bother you, you can punish me, but you have a lot of money, so you can't argue with Lao Luo and me."

Zhang Lin glanced at the two of them and said, "What time is it?"

When the two heard the words, they didn't know what they meant. Chen Yulou looked at his Western watch and replied: "Taoist Master, it's five o'clock in the afternoon Western time, the end of Yin and the beginning of Mao."

Zhang Lin said: "It's getting late. I guess the partridge whistle must have found a suitable place and opened up the robbery hole. I'm afraid that someone has been sent to let us go down by now."

Chen Yulou and Luo Laowai were a little disbelieving when they heard the words, but thinking of Zhang Lin's magical methods, they did not dare to lie.

While the two were hesitating, they saw Luo Laowai's subordinates running hurriedly from a distance.

That was the messenger. When the two of them saw it, they thought to themselves: Could it be a message from Partridge Sentinel? Did he really get through the robbery cave into Pingshan Mountain?

Is it true that this Taoist master has great skills and is capable of pinching people like this?

When the two of them were confused, the messenger had arrived.

Luo Laowai wanted to show off, and shouted loudly without waiting for the orderer to speak: "How can you behave in such a panic? Can you bear to disturb the Taoist priest?"
