Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 555

But since the big cock has gone back safely.

Wu Liang also completely gave up the idea of ​​continuing to investigate the two caves connected to the tomb. He was still inclined to believe what Zhen Mi said about the "mandrill". No matter what, the "mandrill" was genuine. It is obviously not a wise choice for an outsider like him to touch the mold of the "mandrill" here.

What's more, in the mausoleum where cracks had already appeared, the "Mandrill" obviously had the home field advantage, and it was possible to collapse the entire mountain above at any time, making them end up with no return.

Anyway, as far as Wu Liang knew.

At the beginning of the construction of many mines in later generations, a very small temple must be built on the north side near the mine entrance. During festivals and festivals, the leaders of the mines will take the lead to burn incense and worship, for the sake of safety.

As for which gods they worshiped, it's up to the beholder to see the benevolent and the wise.

But this is indeed true. The area where the author lives is mostly coal mines. Every coal mine has such a small temple. During festivals and festivals, mine leaders not only go to burn incense and worship, but also burn paper and set off firecrackers, but usually not with much fanfare It's just for publicity.

Therefore, Zhen Mi said before that his big rooster might have been used as a sacrifice by the "mandrill", so he adopted a milder warning method. This statement is not unreasonable in Wu Liang's view.

"It seems that we must leave this mausoleum as soon as possible, so as not to cause dissatisfaction..."

Wu Liang pondered for a moment, finally turned around and jumped down from the burial pit, and began to collect the "history" that flowed from the "sweat corpse" and condensed on the golden couch.

Dian Wei and Yang Wanli also jumped down to help together.

In such a short time, most of the fairly pure "history" has been put into a jar.

It's not too much, only half a can is filled, and it is estimated to be about three liters.

And this "sweat corpse" has been almost in a static state since Wu Liang and others saw it. At least the naked eye cannot see the process of "sweat corpse" secreting "history".

That is to say, "history" should not be whatever you want. Even if there is a "sweat corpse", it will still take a very long process to secrete the "history". waste.

When Wu Liang finished this matter.

Two coffins that can be called "roughly made" have also been finished.

Although this coffin is not easy to see, Wu Liang has no way to care about it at this moment. As long as he can collect the "sweat corpse" first, he will go back to the city and find a more professional birthday material shop. Exquisite and tighter coffins are.

So Wu Liang and others collected the "sweat corpse".

On the other side, Guan Yu had already carried another coffin into the side room at the back, and began to collect the female corpse.

The whole process went very smoothly.

In about a quarter of an hour, the lids of the two coffins were nailed on.

At this point, it has come to the most exciting moment for Liu Bei's subordinates, they can start to move the gold!

……

Coming out of the tomb, Wu Liang immediately ran to condolences to the lost and found rooster.

Who said this big cock is not spiritual?
After it broke the rope and walked around the mausoleum, and possibly escaped through the secret passage of the mandrill, it actually knew to come back as soon as possible to find the Huren army. It is recognized as the most psychic dog, right?
And after seeing Wu Liang, the big rooster was a little excited, and immediately flapped its wings in the cage, as if it was acting like a baby to Wu Liang.

As for the matter of moving gold.

Naturally, Wu Liang and Huan Renjun will not help, and passing gold may not be a good thing. Although they and Liu Bei's troops have made do with each other for the time being, there is still a layer of separation between them. It will inevitably arouse suspicion, but it is not beautiful.

But Wu Liang and Huan Renjun did not go to help.

It doesn't mean that Liu Bei won't take the initiative to come and talk to him.

This is not.

Before Wu Liang finished feeding the handful of corn used to reward the big rooster, Liu Bei had already dragged his injured body and walked over with Zhang Fei's support.

Wu Liang noticed him from afar.

At this moment, Liu Bei's head was wrapped with a piece of tattered linen cloth, and because the wound was on the side of his head, this piece of tattered linen cloth was also wrapped obliquely. It looked very much like the "a piece of paper" in a cartoon Wu Liang watched when he was a child. ear", besides that, there is a bit of Maurya exoticism.

"Big brother!"

After finally holding back his laughter, Wu Liang quickly threw all the millet in his hand to the eldest son, then clapped his hands and quickly walked up to Liu Bei, "Brother, why don't you come out and walk around if you have something to say? , should also send someone to inform the younger brother, and let the younger brother go to see the elder brother."

"It's okay, it's okay... Hiss!"

Because the distance was still far away, in order to increase the volume, Liu Bei spoke a little too much and accidentally touched the wound, and immediately gritted his lower teeth in pain.

Seeing this, Wu Liang sped up his pace a little, trotted to Liu Bei's side to hold his other arm, and said with concern, "Brother, are you okay, please sit down and rest for a while."

"Thank you fourth brother."

Liu Bei didn't try to be brave either, and slowly sat down with Wu Liang's support, but at this time he didn't speak to Wu Liang immediately, but turned around and said to Zhang Fei, "Third brother, I and fourth brother are talking here. A few words of heartfelt words, you go to help your second brother move the gold, there must be no mistakes in this matter."

"Okay, fourth brother, I'll go to work first."

Without any hesitation, Zhang Fei gave Wu Liang a slight nod as a signal, then immediately turned around and walked quickly towards the mausoleum.

At least for Zhang Fei, after going through these things, he sincerely regards Wu Liang as his fourth brother and trusts him unconditionally. Naturally, he is not worried about handing Liu Bei into Wu Liang's hands at this moment.

"Third brother, walk slowly."

Wu Liang said politely, and when he looked at Liu Bei again, he found Liu Bei's expression was very serious, as if he had something extremely important to discuss with him.

And this matter is extremely confidential, otherwise, how could Liu Bei send Zhang Fei away on purpose?
"Brother Dianwei, you should go and rest for a while, I will have a conversation with elder brother."

So Wu Liang also very interestingly taught Dian Wei, who was always with him, to leave first, lest Liu Bei still be unable to speak with him standing beside him.

"promise."

Seeing Wu Liang's wink, Dian Wei responded and turned around and walked away.

At this moment, there are only the two of them within a radius of several zhang. As long as they speak in a low voice, no one will be able to hear what they are talking about except Bai Jingjing, who has excellent hearing.

And Liu Bei has never seen Bai Jingjing's extraordinary hearing ability before. Even if Guan Yu and Zhang Fei had a little understanding of it when they were in the tomb, they couldn't judge the extent of Bai Jingjing's hearing ability based on the situation at that time. As for being on guard against Bai Jingjing.

"Fourth brother..."

Sure enough, Liu Bei lowered his voice, looked into Wu Liang's eyes and asked, "You should know that I am a clan member of the Han family, a descendant of King Jing of Zhongshan, Liu Sheng, right?"

"Of course I know."

Wu Liang nodded slightly.

"Then what do you think about the way I saw Nao Ji's corpse in the tomb just now, and I planned to collect it and find a treasured place for burial?"

Liu Bei then asked in a low voice.

"Brother's benevolence makes me admire you."

Wu Liang arched his hands and said with admiration.

But in fact, at this moment, there was a "click" in his heart.

Liu Bei obviously didn't ask this question casually, but was obviously testing him.

This person really has a very deep city, and his work is also very meticulous. After he was carried out of the mausoleum just now, he must have carefully recalled all the performances in the tomb at that time.

Therefore, Liu Bei must have realized his gaffes, and these innocuous gaffes had already made him doubt whether Wu Liang had noticed some of his secrets, so he came to test Wu Liang immediately regardless of his injuries.

And now the problem is.

What exactly does Liu Bei want to do?
If Boss Cao's style of "I would rather blame others than others to blame me" had been changed, Wu Liang wouldn't have to guess anymore. If Wu Liang didn't want to die, he should immediately take advantage of his weakness to kill him, even if he had the chance to give orders. None to him.

And Liu Bei is obviously not Boss Cao.

It is still hard to say what he will do because of this, but this matter seems to be related to Liu Bei's real life experience, and Liu Bei's life experience is his only support now, if there is news that is contrary to his self-proclaimed identity , will definitely cause his reputation to be severely damaged, and it will be impossible to stand up again.

Even a truly benevolent person, when faced with such a choice, still can't tell what he will do?

"Could it be that the fourth brother doesn't feel that I'm kind-hearted and kind-hearted at all?"

Liu Bei asked again.

"It's indeed a bit too much, otherwise I would never do this kind of thing."

Wu Liang nodded again, "So it even taught me for a while that I couldn't help but wonder if there was any relationship between my elder brother and that female corpse."

"You mentioned Naozi, I'm afraid it was intentional, trying to find out about it?"

Liu Bei narrowed his eyes slightly, and then asked.

"That was the idea at the time."

Wu Liang also continued to nod, "The behavior of the eldest brother at that time actually confirmed part of my guess..."

He knew very well that the real masters of lies are nine half-truths mixed with half-sentences of lies, so that people can't doubt it, and now that Liu Bei asked these questions, he already had his own answers in his heart.

In this case, the more he denies it, the more it will be counterproductive. Liu Bei will be less and less able to trust him, and the less he will teach Wu Liang to take away this secret.

As such.

Conflict is inevitable.

Up to now, Wu Liang still doesn't want to end up with Liu Bei forever.

It's not that he didn't dare to kill Liu Bei, even if it was Zhang Fei and Guan Erye who had a great influence on future generations, he would still do it without hesitation when it was time to do it, and he would do it very cleanly without leaving any future troubles.

He just wanted to avoid conflicts as much as possible, lest there be casualties in the Tuan army.

After all, swords have no eyes, and no one knows what unexpected things will happen in a real fight. What's more, Liu Bei has more people than him now, and there are two giants, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, to help out, while Wu Liang has only one Dianwei. obviously at a disadvantage.

And even if he really wanted to do something, Wu Liang would do what he did to Ma Chao back then.

Take it by surprise, take it by surprise!
If you don't do anything, it's enough. If you do it, you will eliminate the strongest combat force in Liu Bei's army in an instant. Once you come up, you will take the absolute initiative and minimize the risk...

"But then I realized that whether it is Liu Pengzu, Naoji and Naozi, or the elder brother's ancestor Liu Sheng, there is actually no difference at all. These are still the Liu family's housework, and I, an outsider, followed It's kind of stupid to think wildly."

Wu Liang continued, "When I realized this, I suddenly felt a lot more relaxed, so I didn't have the thought to investigate further, so I didn't bring up this matter any more."

However, the fact is that Wu Liang still used the location of Liu Sheng's mausoleum to test Liu Bei, but Liu Bei obviously didn't know the exact location of Liu Sheng's tomb, so he couldn't make associations and assumptions.

"Hahaha, the fourth brother is indeed a transparent and wonderful person. He can always look at things directly to the essence."

Hearing this, Liu Bei finally laughed, hugged Wu Liang's shoulders and praised, "No matter what, I am still a clan member of the Han family, there is no doubt about it, and it is my duty to help the Han family. .”

"Brother's face has already explained this matter."

Wu Liang nodded and said.

……

Liu Bei seemed to dispel his worries about Wu Liang.

But Wu Liang did not dispel his concerns about Liu Bei.

He has decided not to follow Liu Bei back to Changshan County, but after finishing the follow-up matters here, he bid farewell to Liu Bei and parted ways since then.

As for the "Eight Diagrams Transforming Evil Mirror" that he had promised to supervise for Liu Bei, Wu Liang had already made up his mind, so he randomly drew a sketch for Liu Bei, marked the exact size that the goldsmith would be able to understand on the way, and asked Liu Bei to find the gold himself. The craftsman made it, and he didn't mix it with it.

And if Liu Bei showed a hint of unwillingness to let them go during this process... Wu Liang had no choice but to not talk about martial arts, but I'm afraid it would be a pity for Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

So about two hours later.

The "villain" Wu Liang once again played an unexpected role.

"Fourth brother! Fourth brother!"

Wu Liang had already secretly explained to the people in the Huan army, and they were preparing to pack their things at the moment, when they heard Zhang Fei shouting loudly outside the tent, looking very anxious.

"Third brother, what's the matter?"

Wu Liang opened the curtain and came out to ask.

"We have already moved all the gold couches out, guess what?"

Zhang Fei said with a depressed face.

"This... I really can't figure it out, third brother, just say it straight."

Wu Liang said helplessly.

"Hi--!"

Zhang Fei showed a disgusted expression, sighed and said, "Unexpectedly, this Liu Pengzu is also a loser. Except for the outermost layer of gold, the inside of the couch is actually made of similar materials. Filled with bronze, the total amount of gold is less than eleven."
