General of the Heavens

Chapter 55 Earthquake and Cataclysm [Part 2]

"My goodness! So many treasures! How much opium would you have to sell to earn that much? You've dug up a mountain of bottles!"

"Oh, what mountain is that?"

"It's a treasure trove!" The speaker was one of Qin Shuai's men. He didn't just make things up; he couldn't just accept Luo Laowai's offer of 30% of the treasure as 30%.

The people in front of them were the military supervisors sent by Commander Qin. Chen Yulou had a smile on his face. The dignified leader of the Unloading Ridge faction was speaking to them calmly, which made the group feel very proud.

What was that saying again?

Wow, that'll keep us bragging for a while!

However, what they actually saw was only the tip of the iceberg of the burial goods in the Ping Mountain ancient tomb; the bulk of them were still on the mountaintop.

"Brothers, I don't know how to address you, but I presume you all hold important positions under Commander Qin!" Chen Yulou said politely.

An older man at the head of the group chimed in, "You're too kind, boss. Just call me Old Dog Qin. I don't hold any important position; I'm just a handyman."

Chen Yulou's smile remained unchanged, while the other two younger men, as if afraid others wouldn't know, said, "This is our Commander Qin's second uncle."

"Hey, I'm disrespectful!"

Chen Yulou spoke in a feigned manner, and then quietly slipped a piece of precious jade into Qin Laogou's hand, along with some gold items.

"Isn't it... not a good idea to keep your head up like this?"

Qin Laogou chuckled憨憨地, and Chen Yulou understood. He then had someone bring a box, which was slightly opened to reveal a crack, gleaming with gold.

"There's nothing special about it, just what our ancestors left us. Consider it a small token of friendship. I hope you'll be kind enough to distribute the loot later..."

Before Chen Yulou could finish speaking, Qin Laogou roared, "Boss, do I look like the kind of person who would betray my nephew?"

Qin Laogou's righteous appearance made Chen Yulou feel a little dazed. Are all of Qin Dashuai's relatives so tough?

Chen Yulou still didn't believe it, and forcibly pulled Qin Laogou aside, whispering, "Brother, I don't know how much of the profits you'll get in the end, but if you help me out, I'll give you double!"

He held up two fingers and waved them in front of him repeatedly. Old Qin's face turned red, as if he had been greatly insulted!

"That's...my own nephew! We'll have to...add some more!"

Chen Yulou: "..."

Problems that can be solved with money aren't really problems. It's often said that the troubles of the wealthy are difficult to resolve. This old Qin is quite a character.

Chen Yulou originally only intended to lull him into a false sense of security, so that when everyone moved the treasure up the mountain and used explosives to open the mountain, a few people would become suspicious.

But now it seems things are much simpler; these people are clearly the type who will do anything as long as you pay them.

Even Chen Yulou regretted listening to Ning Chen. It was something that could be solved with a little money, but it would be bad if something went wrong.

Unfortunately, the die is cast and the arrow is ready to be released.

"Someone, take these brothers to the top of the mountain!" Chen Yulou shouted loudly, as if afraid that Qin Laogou wouldn't hear him.

"Chief, it's fine to stay here. Why go up the mountain? You'll have to come down again later."

Chen Yulou patted Qin Laogou on the shoulder and said, "You don't understand. The main force's treasures are all on the mountaintop, and there's a shortcut from the mountaintop to the foot of the mountain."

Seeing that Chen Yulou was speaking so seriously, the group stopped talking. Their task was simply to take the items and wait to exchange them for Luo Laowai.

Chen Yulou then led the group to the mountaintop, where a dazzling display of gold and jade filled the air with an aura of precious gems! Multicolored jewels and jade stones, and calligraphy and paintings by famous figures scattered about...

A bronze cauldron, half the height of a person, stood on the ground, but no one paid it a second glance. There were countless bottles and jars, some even nested together.

Yuan blue and white porcelain contains Tang tri-color pottery, and Tang tri-color pottery contains various precious stones, lacquerware, woodenware and all kinds of other items.

The group of country bumpkins, who knew practically nothing, were so fixated on the pile of gold burial objects that was taller than two people that they couldn't tear their eyes away.

"Dude, snap out of it!"

Chen Yulou patted Qin Laogou on the shoulder, and the guy shivered. He regretted it a little. If he didn't bring back more of these treasures, even if he was Qin Shuai's second uncle, he would still be subject to military law!

"Boss, please don't get me into trouble!"

Anyone with eyes could see what was going on, and Chen Yulou expressed his understanding: "Don't worry, we can't let you go back and be punished."

"That's good, thank you very much, Chief!"

"No need to thank me, because you can't go back!" Chen Yulou's smile never faded, and it remained so even now.

The smiles on Qin Laogou and the others' faces vanished abruptly. He seemed to realize something, and pointing at Chen Yulou, he asked tremblingly, "Boss, do you think I still have a chance... ah... ah!"

Before Qin Laogou could finish speaking, Chen Yulou pushed him down the mountain with a forceful push. The vertical distance between the summit and the foot of Ping Mountain should be about five or six hundred meters.

After about ten seconds, Qin Laogou's voice disappeared.

Chen Yulou turned his gaze to the other two people. The leader, Qin Laogou, had been killed so easily that the two of them were so frightened that they defecated and urinated.

"Please... give me a chance, I promise I won't say a word when I get back!"

Chen Yulou laughed: "I wanted to give you a chance, but nobody gave me one! Brother, maybe you should be a woman in your next life..."

After two screams, Chen Yulou clapped his hands and said, "It's been three days. Someone, give the signal to the brothers down below to light the fire!"

Biu~

.........

At the foot of the mountain, Ning Chen and the other two were eagerly waiting. The next moment, a loud bang resounded through the sky, and then the earth trembled!

"The earth is collapsing!"

The three of them had flushed faces and were experiencing a surge of blood and qi!

"Big Brother, Commander Luo, the time has come!"

Partridge Whistle nodded and then opened the underground gate. In order not to attract attention, Partridge Whistle only urged Digger Jia to dig the tunnel every night.

In just a few days, I've already shot nearly thirty meters!

Even if Ping Mountain were to collapse and slide down, the three of them would be perfectly safe. Ning Chen thought for a moment and then said, "Big brother, you go first, Commander Luo second, and I'll go last!"

Without suspicion, Partridge Whistle went down into the burrow first. After confirming it was safe, Old Man Luo was about to climb in when Ning Chen grabbed him.

"Brother Ning, is there anything else?"

Ning Chen's lips curled into a slight smile as he said, "Commander Luo, have you forgotten something? I still remember it perfectly well."

The area outside was already on alert, and it looked like Qin Shuai's men were about to rush in. Luo Laowai was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.

"Brother Ning, let's go inside and talk about it. What's the big deal if it's not as important as your life?" Luo Laowai said, trying to break free.

Without saying a word, Ning Chen thrust out a dagger and stabbed Luo Laowai in the kidney. "Commander Luo, you wanted to kill me back then, and now, I want to kill you. Now we're even."

A gentleman takes his revenge, even after ten years.

Ning Chen had long disliked Luo Laowai. Last time, when Luo Laowai ordered his men to fire, Chen Yulou and Partridge Whistle thought it was a misunderstanding, but Ning Chen didn't think so.

If there are so many misunderstandings, what's the point of having police?

"Goodbye, Commander Luo!" Ning Chen delivered another blow, piercing Luo Laowai's heart, then forcefully threw Luo Laowai's body out of the window, and finally crawled into the hole to seal the fake stone slabs on the ground.

The people outside were about to rush into the house when they suddenly heard a noise from the back window. They quickly split into two groups to enter the house and then went around to check through the back window.

"No one's home!"

"There are people outside the window! They ran out through the back window!"
