Chapter 56

After half an hour!

Shen Lang, Jin Hui, and Jin Zhong led the 100 cavalry of the Earl's Mansion and drove Xu Wenzhao towards a certain place.

Then, Xu Wenzhao's face became paler and paler, and his whole body became more and more trembling.

Eventually, a group of cavalry stopped in a remote valley.

There's nothing here, just a stone post, and it's half-abandoned.

"Come down, Mr. Xu Wenzhao." Shen Lang said lightly.

At this point, Xu Wenzhao could no longer walk, and his legs were as limp as boiled noodles.

This picture is a bit familiar, the otherworldly "In the Name of the People"?

The two Earl's Palace warriors lifted him directly.

"This place should be very familiar to you. For others, this place is not worth mentioning at all, but it is indeed the most important to you." Shen Lang said: "I'm right, Mr. Xu Wenzhao."

Xu Wenzhao could hardly breathe, but he still said stubbornly, "I...I don't know what you're talking about."

Hard-mouthed to the point of death.

A hundred cavalry immediately set up defenses around, Jin Zhong, Jin Hui, and a dozen warriors entered this abandoned post together.

"boom!"

He kicked the door sharply, and a black figure rushed out, trying to escape.

Jin Hui is a master, how could he let him run away, he easily grabbed his neck and lifted it up sharply.

"Whoosh!"

A poisonous arrow shot out of the black shadow's sleeve.

Jin Huifei quickly blocked with his arm, there was a small shield on it, and the poisonous arrow was directly knocked out.

Then, he shot like lightning, easily breaking all the hands and feet of the shadow.

"Crack, click..."

"Ah..." The man in black let out an extremely mournful howl.

"No..." Xu Wenzhao also let out a mournful cry.

Jin Hui stepped forward and yanked off the mask of the man in black, revealing a face full of fear and hatred.

Very familiar, it is Xu Wenzhao's son Xu Tian, ​​who specially guards the secret treasury here.

"This post has been abandoned, what are you doing here?" Jin Zhong asked.

"You care about me?" Xu Tianhan said, "I'm playing here, can't I?"

Shen Lang said: "Don't talk nonsense with him, there is a secret door underground here, dig it out."

More than a dozen warriors stepped forward. They didn't know where the secret door was or where the organ was.

However, it is enough to dig three feet directly into the ground.

More than half an hour later, the ground in this abandoned outpost was excavated by more than two feet.

Sure enough, a secret door appeared on the ground with a huge iron lock hanging on it.

Jin Hui stepped forward and slashed with a sharp knife.

As a result, the iron lock was fine, but the knife folded directly.

"This lock is made of tungsten iron and can be chopped constantly with a knife." Shen Lang said: "It must be opened with a key. If I guessed correctly, Mr. Xu Wenzhao must have brought this key with him."

Suddenly, Xu Wenzhao began to struggle desperately.

Jin Zhong stepped forward and searched all over his body but could not find the key.

However, he pulled out Xu Wenzhao's hairpin, found that You Qi was heavy, and tugged it abruptly.

After the outer shell was torn off, the shape of the key was revealed.

This Xu Wenzhao really deliberately transformed the key of the vault into a hairpin.

Jin Zhong took the key, and sure enough he opened the extremely strong black lock and pushed open the extremely heavy door.

This door is actually made of iron.

Xu Wenzhao really paid for it.

After opening the door, a step appeared, extending to the ground.

Sure enough, there is a basement room.

Jin Zhong and Jin Hui escorted Xu Wenzhao down the steps and entered the underground secret room.

It was pitch black here, and nothing could be seen.

Jin Zhong directly lit the torch with the fire zhezi.

Then……

All the people present were stunned.

The golden ones are all gold coins!

The shelves in this small secret room are filled with all kinds of boxes, all of which are gold coins.

Not only that, there are all kinds of jewelry, antiques, calligraphy and painting and so on.

It's just a treasure trove.

I really didn't expect that Xu Wenzhao, the steward of the Earl's House, had embezzled so much in more than 20 years.

Jin Zhong and Jin Hui were really angry.

Xu Wenzhao, ah Xu Wenzhao!

If it wasn't for the old earl who saw that you were a distant relative of his wife and took you in, you would be a poor and poor scholar.

If it wasn't for the old earl to study for you, how could you be admitted as a scholar?

How can you master arithmetic.

Your food and clothing, your house, your wife and children, everything you have is given by the Earl's House.

That's how you repaid the Earl of Xuanwu?

A wolf-hearted dog's lungs are not as good as beasts!

Shen Lang found an account book on the shelf. It was Xu Wenzhao's corruption diary.

When and how much was embezzled, I can remember clearly.

Shen Lang smiled and said, "Mr. Xu Wenzhao, now the evidence is conclusive, is the iron evidence like a mountain?"

"Ho...ho..." Xu Wenzhao gasped desperately, completely speechless.

He couldn't stand at all and fell to the ground.

But there was one thing he was unwilling to do. The location of the secret vault was top secret. Even his wife Xu Wenzhao didn't know how could Shen Lang know?

Xu Wenzhao hissed: "Shen Lang, I didn't tell anyone the location of my secret gold room, how did you know?"

Not only Xu Wenzhao, but also Jin Zhong and Jin Hui are puzzled.

This hidden gold room is completely top secret, why did Shen Lang know?

Shen Lang sneered and said, "Xu Wenzhao, you are too greedy. You even have to ask the Earl's House to pay for the treasury. Nine years ago, you lost 20,000 catties of iron and bought 25 catties of iron. Iron tungsten, and this is the only outpost that has been abandoned in those years, but this abandoned outpost has also used more than 130 people to dismantle the outpost inside and outside. You are all fools. "

"You idiot, you even told me the secret location of the treasury in the ledger."

As soon as these words came out, Jin Zhong and Jin Hui sincerely admired them.

From these clues, Shen Lang directly judged the location of Xu Wenzhao's gold hiding, which is really clever.

Xu Wenzhao suddenly went crazy, pointed at Shen Lang and hissed: "Are you a human or a ghost, are you a human or a ghost?"

"Load all the gold coins and treasures back to the Earl's House, and bring back the scumbag Xu Wenzhao." Shen Lang ordered.

"Yes!" Jin Zhong directly dragged Xu Wenzhao back.

Xu Wenzhao's eldest son, Xu Tian, ​​had his hands and feet broken, and he was paralyzed on the ground, his eyes full of resentment when he looked at Shen Lang.

Shen Lang said: "This person was killed and his head was cut off."

Xu Tian was startled and hissed: "You dare? With the new policy of the Yue Kingdom, local nobles have no right to deal with their subordinate officials, let alone kill them!"

Shen Lang sneered: "Silly, who would know if I killed you here? The corpse was burnt to ashes, sprinkled into the sea, and the world evaporated."

Jin Hui stepped forward and was about to cut off Xu Tian's head directly.

Shen Lang suddenly said: "How about, let me try?"

He doesn't want to kill, but he needs to experience the cruelty of this world.

Jin Hui was startled, then handed the knife to Shen Lang.

Then, Jin Hui, a master, held Xu Tian down to prevent him from struggling.

Holding a sharp knife, Shen Lang touched Xu Tian's neck, pressed it, and then stroked it lightly.

Jin Hui's eyes twitched.

Huh? How can you feel more skilled than me in all the postures of my uncle?

...

The entire fleet came home fully loaded.

When the Count saw these gold coins, these jewelry and antiques, he was full of surprises that were lost and found, but also full of infinite sadness.

He is doubting himself.

Am I really doing something wrong?

I am so tolerant of others that I have raised such a white-eyed wolf.

Am I just a foolish lord?

If it wasn't for his son-in-law Shen Lang, Xu Wenzhao, the big moth, would have had no idea how long he would have had to go unpunished, or how much of the people's fat and cream would have to be taken away from the Earl's Mansion.

Good son-in-law, good son-in-law!

Thanks to Shen Lang, it was able to recover such a huge loss for the Earl's Mansion.

Thanks to Shen Lang, the current financial crisis in the Earl's Mansion can be alleviated.

Lord Earl looked at Shen Lang, and there were thousands of words that he didn't say.

Because it is a relative of my own family, it would be too outlandish to say thank you.

Then, Lord Earl looked at Xu Wenzhao with cold eyes, and said word by word, "Xu Wenzhao, what else do you have to say now?"

Xu Wenzhao's body trembled, then he suddenly knelt on the ground, walked over with his knees, hugged Lord Earl's legs and said, "My lord, it's all my fault for being blinded by lard. It's all my fault. Don't get mad at your body."

The earl kicked him away with a kick, and said sternly: "Don't act anymore, I'm really blind, I have always trusted you and reused you. I never thought that people's hearts could be so sinister."

Xu Wenzhao knelt down and crawled over again, hugged the earl's legs, and wept loudly: "My lord, please spare your life, please look at the old master's sake, please look at the lady's face, please look at me two. For the sake of being loyal for more than ten years, please spare my dog's life."

Lord Count kicked him away again.

He was completely heartbroken.

Xu Wenzhao knelt and climbed in front of Shen Lang again, kowtowed desperately, crying and begging: "Master, it's all my fault that Xu Wenzhao is blind, and I have offended you because I don't know Mount Tai. For the sake of my age, please spare my life, please, please."

"Uncle, as long as you spare my dog's life, I will be a cow and a horse for you, and a pig and a dog from now on!"
