But another thought immediately emerged in the mind of the person who delivered the meal.
That is, who put this big bag of silver here?
Logically speaking, this place is quite a secret place.
On weekdays, except for those of them, no one else would come in.
Is it possible that some thief who broke into the house stole these silver coins from other places, and then under various unexpected circumstances, he had to leave these silver coins here until he has free time in the future?
Come and get it?
If that's the case, it's really a big advantage for me.
Thinking of this, the person who delivered the meal looked in all directions again.
After seeing that there was still no one around, the greed in his heart could no longer be contained.
The person who delivered the meal had the intention of holding the basket of food and the large bag of silver piled in the corner in his hand, and then quickly found a secret place to hide the silver.
However, when he picked up the large bag of silver in his hand, he found that the large bag of silver was really too heavy.
If you ask him to mention these two things at the same time, let alone make him run, even if you ask him to walk a few steps quickly, it will be extremely difficult for him.
In desperation, the person who delivered the meal slapped his forehead and came up with this idea.
He decided to put his rice basket here first, then carry the large bag of silver with both hands and leave quickly.
Then find a secret place as soon as possible and hide the coins.
After he has finished these things, it is not too late to pick up his rice basket and deliver the food when he comes back.
After all, he had seen this place several times before, and there was no suspicious person around.
Therefore, even if he does this, he is not afraid of what others will do in the meal.
When the person who delivered the food thought of this, the movements of his hands became extremely agile.
But I saw that he first put the rice basket in his hand in the corner, then picked up the large bag of silver with his own hands, and ran staggering towards a dilapidated house in the distance.
Trying to hide the big bag of silver in his hand there.
Only half an hour later, the man who was responsible for delivering food jumped out of the dilapidated hut.
After seeing that there was still no suspicious person waiting everywhere, he ran to the corner again with a smile on his face and held his rice basket in his hands.
He was quite cautious by nature, and he also knew the importance of the rice basket in his hand, so he lifted the rice basket and took a few steps before removing the layer of cloth covering it.
After he confirmed that there was nothing unusual about the food inside, he spread the covering layer of cloth again.
Then, he walked forward with his long strides.
It wasn't until the man who delivered the meal disappeared into the endless night that Wu Zhi, Shi Qian, Tao Zongwang, and Li Gun slowly emerged from the darkness with their brothers.
Shi Qian first glanced at the direction where the meal delivery man was leaving, then turned his head and looked at his eldest brother with excitement.
"Brother, your method is really good."
"Dissolving two good medicines in water and then pouring some on top of those meals is really not easy for people to find."
Wu Zhi laughed a few times with an indifferent expression.
"It's just some trivial skills. It would be great to be able to frighten the man delivering the food."
"If Ruohu doesn't stay, today's events will be quite troublesome."
Compared to the deliberate calculations of Shi Qian and Wu Zhi, what Tao Zongwang, the nine-tailed turtle, had in mind was much simpler and more straightforward.
"Brother, brother Shi Qian, is it really necessary to go to such trouble to handle this matter?"
"As far as I'm concerned, all I have to do is give the man delivering the food a shovel and he'll be beaten to death immediately."
"When that time comes, how dare the man delivering food not to listen to our brothers?"
"At that time, the eldest brother only needs to threaten the food delivery man. How dare he disobey the eldest brother's orders?"
"Unless that kid doesn't want to live anymore."
Wu Zhi looked at Tao Zongwang and slowly shook his head.
"Brother's idea is indeed very simple and straightforward."
"But there are also some unexpected surprises in this."
"I would never use this method unless necessary."
"Even if the man who delivers the food can be intimidated by all of us, we can coerce him into delivering food to those overt and covert sentinels."
"But there must be fear in his expression and in his words."
"What if there is an attentive person among those overt and covert sentries who notices something is wrong with the man who delivers the food?"
"Then our plan will be ruined in one day?"
"Brother Shi Qian and I adopted such a relatively troublesome strategy precisely because we took this into consideration."
"The purpose is nothing more than to make our plan execute perfectly."
"Okay, I guess the man delivering the food has gone far, so we should follow him."
"If you delay for too long, accidents will always happen."
Then Wu Zhi, Tao Zongwang, and Li Gun led the brothers under their command and moved forward quickly while taking advantage of the night.
Because before that, Shi Qian had explored the terrain here first.
Therefore, when everyone followed him here, it was quite smooth.
After a while, Shi Qian took Wu Zhi and others to a hidden place with a relatively wide view and surrounded by weeds.
About thirty meters away from here is a rockery about ten meters high.
Around the rockery, there were not only hundreds of trees growing, but also a stream that had dried up for an unknown period of time.
What surprised Wu Zhi and others was that the meal delivery man they had seen before was actually here.
But seeing him, he walked into the dense jungle first, and after about half a quarter of an hour, he came out again carrying a bamboo basket.
Then, he came to the creek that had dried up long ago and handed the bamboo basket in his hand under a stone arch bridge.
Next, the meal delivery man repeated this action several times, going to the back of the rockery, on top of the rockery, in the weeds, behind the mountain col, and other places.
After the meal delivery man finished his work, he sat down next to the rockery with an empty bamboo basket, and started chatting with the two men in black standing next to the rockery holding simple knives.
When Shi Qian, who was lurking in the grass, saw this scene on the opposite side, he immediately let out an inaudible sigh.
