Chapter 12 Treasure
After binding the rope three times, Xu Han still felt uneasy. He grabbed the stone with both hands and shook it a few times and found that the stone was a little loose. The soil around it fell down and fell into the bottomless sinkhole due to Xu Han's shaking. Fortunately, at least half of the stones are stuck on the wall of the pit. If there is no external force, there is absolutely no problem to fix the rope.
After tying the rope, Xu Han put out the torch and still inserted it in his waist. Then he pulled out the machete and got into the hole.
This is indeed an underground secret room!
The secret room is rectangular, not big, about two or three feet long and wide, and one person high, and there are only two things in it: night pearl and a big wooden box!
In the middle of the top of the secret room is a night pearl as big as a fist, emitting a soft white light. There are dozens of large wooden boxes neatly on the ground. These wooden boxes have different specifications and quality. They seem to have been transported from different places. Some boxes are carved with dragons and phoenixes on the surface, which looks magnificent and extraordinary; some boxes are dilapidated and stale, as if they can kick them with one foot. .
Xu Han is overjoyed. Don't care what's in the box. The night pearl above his head is a valuable thing! Although he is a subordinate and has never seen Ye Mingzhu, he doesn't need to see many things to recognize. He doesn't know how much this fist-sized Ye Mingzhu is worth, but he can imagine that Ye Mingzhu is not a cabbage in the back mountain vegetable field, but must be valuable! What's more, it's so big.
The wooden box is not locked. Obviously, the owner of this secret room uses the wooden box mainly for easy handling, not to prevent theft.
When opening a wooden box casually, Xu Han was stunned.
Gold coins!
is actually a box full of gold coins!
The golden gold coins are uneven, lying quietly in the box, shining in the night pearl, emitting a charming golden light, and the whole secret room is coated with a faint gold!
His hands were inserted into the pile of gold coins and felt the feeling of coolness emanating from the gold coins. Xu Han's mind was blank and he looked at the large box of golden gold coins in a daze.
One hundred copper coins can be exchanged for one silver coin, and one hundred silver coins can be exchanged for one gold coin. Xu Han worked hard in Zhoujiazhuang's kitchen for a month, only ten copper coins a month, and his total income in a year was only one silver coin and 20 copper coins. That is to say, Xu Han knows very well that according to his income situation, even if he works hard all his life, he can't earn a gold coin!
But now, there is a whole box of gold coins in front of him. How can he not be dazed?
Xu Han doesn't know how many gold coins there are in such a large box, but it is estimated that this box of gold coins can buy the whole Zhoujiazhuang!
I don't know how long it took for Xu Han to recover from the shock.
So he opened the second box.
It's also a whole box of gold coins!
Xu Han opened his mouth wide and couldn't close it for a long time. His mind was dizzy as if he were dreaming.
Open the third box again.
It's still a whole box of gold coins!
Xu Han went crazy and opened all the boxes as quickly as possible. Suddenly, he found that all the wooden boxes here were full of gold coins. There was nothing else, only gold coins, all boxes of gold coins, not a single silver coin, let alone copper coins!
As the wooden boxes were opened one after another, the golden light in the secret room became thicker and thicker. When Xu Han opened the last big wooden box, the white light of the night pearl in the room completely turned into a yellow golden light!
The golden light renders the whole secret room brilliantly, like an underground palace!
Looking at these dozens of boxes of gold coins, Xu Han was stunned like a wooden chicken, suddenly like a dream. He instinctively pinched his thigh with his hand, only felt a sharp pain, and then bit his tongue with his teeth, which hurt into his heart and lungs. Only then did this confirm that all this in front of us is not a dream, but a reality and a living reality. However, Xu Han still can't believe this reality!
What the rumor said is really true, and there is really a treasure in the sinkhole! No wonder the dozen servants who took care of the vegetable garden were so swore that they saw the pearls emanating from the sinkhole with their own eyes.
After standing for a long time, Xu Han suddenly laughed and pushed a large box of gold coins to the ground nervously.
After a sound of metal collision, the golden gold coins spread on the ground. Xu Han lay down, lying on the gold coin, facing the sky, with his hands on his pillow, open his feet, smiling face, and closing his eyes. Quietly feeling the hard and cool gold coins behind me, I had an indescribable pleasure in my heart.
"Wow!"
Xu Han exhaled a long breath of turbidity, as if to exhale all the humiliation in the past 15 years. That kind of satisfaction, that kind of intoxicated expression, that kind of happy smile, that kind of ecstasy, just like a beggar lying on a pile of bread, and a young man lying among a large number of beautiful brothels.
Although the gold coins behind them are hard, Xu Han feels extremely comfortable.
Early today, he was tied to the ground and escorted to the execution hall. He was detained for theft, laughed at for having a special hobby, and was viciously instructed by Zhou Ziyu. After basking in the sun for a long time, when he was about to be tortured in the afternoon, he was inexplicably rescued by Zhou Qi, and then involuntarily forced to look for treasures in this sinkhole. The ghost almost found the strangeness on the pit wall, kicked open the pit wall, came to this secret room, and found the night pearl and dozens of boxes of large wooden boxes full of gold coins.
Xu Han suddenly had a feeling of coming to heaven from hell!
He is the only one here. It's very quiet and no one disturbs.
Here, he doesn't need to do anything, won't be scolded by anyone, doesn't look at anyone's face, and won't be framed by anyone. He really wanted to lie quietly on this pile of gold coins until he died. It was not until this moment that Xu Han suddenly found that he had lived too tired, too bitter, too cowardly and meaningless. It was really better to die than to live like livestock!
Xu Han suddenly remembered his father, whose whereabouts are unknown and his life and death are uncertain. He remembered his mother, brother and sister who were separated by the riots. He remembered his experience of begging while looking for his relatives over the years, the white eyes of those people, the disgusted eyes of those people, and the kind of human feelings as thin as paper and the pity as dogs. On the day of shit, Xu Han suddenly burst into tears.
He cried heartbrokenly, heartbroken, and earth-shaking.
Over the years, he has endured humiliation, gritted his teeth and went through one difficulty after another, and never shed a drop of tears: even if the cold winter moon shrank under the eaves of the street and trembled, even if he ran to fight for a bone with a dog, even if he was surrounded and beaten by those little beggars, Even if he was chased out of the restaurant with a stick as thick as his wrist, even if he was almost killed in the cave, even if his whole body collapsed and was woken up by the rain, even if...
No matter what situation he is in, no matter what kind of person he is facing, he has never shed half a tear!
But now, he cried, and he finally cried. He always thought that he had no tears and would not cry, but now, he finally cried. Cry out all the pains over the years, and there is nothing left.
I don't know how long he cried until his tears dried up, and he finally stopped.
He suddenly felt as if he had taken off ten thousand pounds of heavy burden, and his whole body was relaxed.
His body and mind suddenly relaxed, and his fatigue suddenly swept over like a tide, and almost instantly drowned him.
So he fell asleep, lay on the pile of gold coins, with a sweet smile on the corners of his mouth and fell asleep.
