Passing time in the mountains until the sun is about to set.

Return to the village, send the firewood to a fixed number of households, and then sit in front of the door and wait.

Niu Xi went home before dark.

It is estimated that Jia Zhengjin knocked on the door when their family was about to finish dinner.

"Who?" Niu Xi opened the door and looked out.

"I, Niu Shun." Jia Zhengjin asked in a low voice, "Are Uncle Bao sleeping?"

"Why? Didn't you pay for your firewood?"

"No!"

"Oh!" Niu Xi said indifferently, "He fell asleep after eating, and I'm going back to the room. Have something to do? Tell him to go?"

"No!" Jia Zhengjin said quickly. "Actually, I'm not here to find Uncle Bao."

"Why don't you ask him to come to my house?"

"I... I have something to do with you."

"Look for me?" Niu Xi puzzled and looked at this unfamiliar neighbor. His father, Niu Bao, is quite Niu Shun, but he hasn't said much to him.

"Is it convenient to reach my house?" Jia Zhengjin asked softly. "Something wants you to help."

"Aren't we two so familiar? The village says you are honest, not like I'm fooling around all day, and I'm not afraid of being spoiled by me?"

"I don't think you are as unbearable as others have said." Jia Zhengjin pretended to look around carefully, "Xi Zi, although we don't have much contact, we are neighbors after all. And I often send firewood to Uncle Bao, how much do you know about your father and son? . If I don’t really ask for something, I won’t find you. If you can come to me, I will delay you for a while.”

"..." Niu Xi looked Jia Zhengjin up and down, as if thinking. After a few minutes or so, I nodded slowly, "I have to get up early tomorrow to go to the county, and I'm going to sleep soon. If you tell a short story, don't waste my time. If I can help, I will help you, I can't help you find it. Others go."

"Good! You come, don't wake up Uncle Bao." Jia Zhengjin turned and ran to Niushun's house.

Niu Xi turned and closed the door, and also followed in a gentle pace.

Taking Niu Xi into the thatched house, Jia Zhengjin carefully looked around, and after confirming that no one was there, he gently closed the door and took him to the candle-lit wooden table: "Sit!"

"Something talks about things." Niu Xi is also polite, sitting directly on the wooden bench.

Jia Zhengjin nodded and turned to the bed beside the woodpile in the corner, back to Niu Xi pretending to rummage, and then took a silver ingot from the virtual backpack.

But after thinking about it, I collected the silver ingots and replaced them with dozens of copper coins. With both hands, I came to the table and fell on it with a clatter.

Seeing these coins, Niu Xi showed a puzzled expression: "Shun Zi, what does this mean?"

Jia Zhengjin sat opposite Niu Xi, lowering his voice and saying, "Xi Zi, do you know what this is?"

"Nonsense! Copper coins." Niu Xi rolled his eyes. "You save firewood every day? I thought you didn't have enough food!"

"No!" Jia Zhengjin pretended to be mysterious and whispered to him, "I don't have enough money to sell firewood even for meals, and these are not my savings. It's a windfall!"

"Stolen? It shouldn't be, the villagers say you are honest."

"Why would I steal something?" Jia Zhengjin said quickly. "Actually, the money...I picked it up on the mountain."

"Cut!" Niu Xiwen Yan stood up directly, and turned away.

"Hey hey!" Jia Zhengjin hurriedly stopped and stopped, "Why are you leaving?"

"You continue to pick up money up the mountain! I'm going back to sleep." Niu Xi obviously didn't believe it.

"Don't! Xizi, I didn't lie to you." Jia Zhengjin forcibly pulled him and asked him to sit back. "You listen to me first."

"What do you want to say?" Niu Xi was impatient.

After Jia Zhengjin asked him to sit down, he whispered, "Do you want to get rich?"

"Who doesn't want to make a fortune? Won't you let me go up the mountain to pick up money too? Really have money, how can no one pick it up?" Niu Xi said coldly, "What the **** are you doing?"

"Xi Zi, you listened to me first." Jia Zhengjin calmed his emotions, and then turned around to take a silver ingot from the virtual backpack, carefully wrapped in his sleeves, and slowly moved to the table.

Niu Xi couldn't see what was under his sleeve, staring at each other in doubt.

He waited until Jia Zhengjin opened his sleeves to reveal the silver inside, then he widened his eyes and showed a shocked expression.

This big ingot of silver is not something Niu Shun who can cut wood every day can earn. Even the village head's house has only a few scattered pieces of silver, and he can't produce such a complete ingot at all, and his condition is so beautiful.

Probably only the rich households in the county can get this kind of silver ingot.

"Where did you come from?" Niu Xi couldn't help swallowing, and felt dry.

"Do you believe me?" Jia Zhengjin asked softly.

"You don't make it clear, how can I believe it?" Niu Xi's eyes moved away from the silver ingot and landed on Jia Zhengjin's face.

"Xi Zi, I don't hide you!" Jia Zhengjin stood up and pretended to look outside the door, making sure that no one came back to the table and said softly, "Last night I had a dream. Inside the dream, I saw my mother Standing by her side. She said to me that her parents had done good deeds during her lifetime, and she had a blessing after death, which should be on me. My mother asked me to go to the cliff she fell at that time, where there was enough gold and silver for me to spend my whole life. Treasure."

"It's just a dream, can it come true?" Niu Xi looked at him doubtfully.

"I think so too, but the dream is too real! And my mother repeatedly asked me to see it." Jia Zhengjin said, "So when cutting wood today, I couldn't help but wonder about the past. Seriously, I am also worried about what to do if I encounter a jackal, a tiger or a leopard? But luck is good, there are some poisonous snakes and poisonous worms, there are no beasts. Guess what? When I get to the bottom of the mountain, follow the one my mother said The trail, actually found a very hidden cavethe cave?"

"Yeah! My mother said that there are Qiankun in the cave, and there are gold and silver treasures everywhere." Jia Zhengjin said softly, "Don't really say, I wandered around the entrance of the cave today and saw a rotten little wooden box. This is the inside. Ingots of silver, and many coins. It is estimated that there are really countless boxes in the cave, with countless gold and silver..."

"Is there such a thing?" Niu Xi asked with wide eyes, hesitating, "You...you told me this, were you afraid of me?"

"Although we don't have much contact, but live by the side, I have looked at you from childhood to know your character." Jia Zhengjin said, "To be honest, I didn't want to tell anyone, I am the best to get rich by myself. Besides, this was originally brought by my mother-in-law, and it should have belonged to me. But the cave was a huge labyrinth, and the entrance was blocked. I don’t know how to get in. You also know that I don’t understand these twists and turns. I can’t open it by any means. I don’t know many people, and I can believe a few. If you think about it, you’re the most reliable. And you often run outside. I thought of a way to help me enter the maze. As long as I am willing to help me, the gold and silver unpacking in the maze will be divided equally between us. But we can’t tell others that this is our secret, can we?”
