Chapter 2264 He is good at the technique of keeping the face(1/2)

Cao Shu said that the tree was dead, and Cao Heng also touched the trunk.

The trunks are very dry, and with a little effort, you can pick up a large piece of bark.

"This tree has been dead for at least ten years." Looking around, a smile appeared on the corner of Cao Shu's mouth. He said to everyone: "A big tree with deep roots and lush leaves will die alone in such a beautiful scenery. Don't you think it's strange?"

"The lord means..." Deng Zhan and Zhu Ao asked almost at the same time.

"Bow down the tree first." Cao Shu instructed: "If there is nothing strange in the trunk, then dig the roots and see what is under the roots."

"Why don't you hurry up!" Cao Shu gave the order, and Deng Zhan immediately called the guards forward.

The guards came forward one after another. Because they did not bring their tools, they could only take out the long sword they wore to cut off the dead tree.

The long sword cut on the trunk, and the bark and wood chips splashed everywhere.

Since the long sword is not a tool for logging, and the big tree is too thick, the guards' progress is very slow.

A guard suddenly stopped after cutting some swords and made a very strange sound of "Huh".

"What's going on?" Seeing that his expression was strange, everyone stopped one after another, and Cao Shu walked over quickly.

"Lord, there seems to be something strange here." The guard put away his long sword and stood aside, bowed to Cao Shu and said.

When he walked to the place where the guard had just cut with his long sword, Cao Shu took a look.

What he saw was that the tree trunk was actually filled with a yellow metallic luster.

"Hurry, cut this piece away!" He quickly ordered the guards.

The guards stepped forward one after another, waved their swords and chopped the trunk that was visible.

When the trunk is cut apart, some golden beads are rolled out from inside.

"It seems that it's not a dream." Picking up a golden bead on the ground, Cao Shuo said to Deng Zhan: "General Deng, you should take two people back to Chang'an City immediately. Please ask General Zhao and General Ma to lead the people and the civilians here. We will send the treasure back."

Deng Zhanling ordered to leave.

Cao Heng looked up at the canopy of the dead tree and said to Cao Shuo: "Father, if this tree is full of golden beads, it will be extraordinary."

"It's not necessarily just such a tree." Cao Shu replied: "Although we can't be sure, we still have to dig this tree with roots to see what else is below."

The guards cut over the big tree and rolled out many golden beads from it.

Cao Heng asked Cao Shu: "Father, so many golden beads should be all the treasures Wang Yun saved. Judging from the number, it is at least enough for Dawei to use for one year..."

"All the treasures?" Cao Shuo smiled and shook his head: "These should be just the most beautiful things, and the real good things are still below."

He said to Zhu Ao: "General Zhu, do you know where Wei Tu and the others are?"

Cao Shu hadn't personally asked about Wei Tu's gold-touching camp for a long time.

Suddenly asked about Wei Tu, Zhu Ao replied: "General Wei has also been searching for tombs around recently, as if he is digging several of them."

"Is he far from here?" Cao Shuo asked again.

"It's a coincidence that General Wei has been in Zuofengyi recently," Zhu Ao asked, "Do you want to send someone to invite him?"

"What's the use of just asking him to come?" Cao Shu said: "Take all the entire mojin camp and ask them to turn it over here. I want to see how many good things are hidden here!"

Cao Shu returned to Chang'an that day, and the place where he found the Jinzhu was left with a team of Wei troops guarding him.

Zhao Yun and Ma Chao took a team of people to load the golden beads into the carriage and escorted Cao Shu back to Chang'an.

It was still early when I left the city. Cao Shu and others returned to Chang'an, but it was already dark.

Back at the bedroom, Cao Heng followed him to the room inside: "Father, how come he said that so many golden beads are just something on the surface? Wang Yun was just Situ back then, and he didn't seem to be corrupt. I think he shouldn't have accumulated so much wealth."

"That's just what you think." Cao Shu said: "Wang Yun planned to kill Dong Zhuo back then, but of course he thought about gathering troops to conquer the world and to fight against the heroes of all over the country for the Han Dynasty. Unfortunately, his fate was really illegitimate. Before he could accomplish great things, Li Jue and Guo Si started to make trouble. Think about it, since he was determined to conquer the unjust ministers for the Han Dynasty, how could he not make complete preparations in advance? If the only little golden beads were used to recruit large troops, how many could it be recruited? Even if the recruitment was made, how long could it take for the soldiers?"

When he came to the oil lamp in the room, Cao Shuo picked up the scissors placed next to the oil lamp, cut the wick and said, "As soon as the battle begins, it will be difficult for the year to achieve success."

"So my father determined that there were other treasures?" Cao Heng suddenly realized.

"It must be." Cao Shuo nodded: "I don't know if it was a dream to see Wang Yun. He just wanted to use these treasures to exchange for me to treat the descendants of the Han Dynasty well. After thinking about it carefully, this person is indeed the strong minister of the Han Dynasty. After many years of his death, he still cared about the descendants of the Han Dynasty. Compared with him, we are indeed not loyal to the Han Dynasty."

"The world was fought by my grandfather and my father. Why should I give up the Han Dynasty?" Cao Heng replied: "Maybe my father may not agree, but I feel that this world is the prey of the weak. The Han Dynasty is declining and replaced by our Great Wei, so they can't blame others."

"Same thing, maybe hundreds of years later, others will be used on our descendants." Cao Shuo smiled slightly: "There are talents in the generation of the country. Today we are the ones who dominate the ups and downs. We cannot predict who will be in the future."

"If there really is that day, it can only be said that future generations are incompetent." Cao Heng replied first, and then asked Cao Shu: "I dare to ask my father, since he knows there is still treasure, why don't the guards continue to search, but have to wait for the gold camp?"

"Who can do more meticulously than the gold-touching camp when it comes to digging graves and looking for treasures?" Cao Shuo smiled slightly: "Leave this matter to Wei Tu and his gold-touching camp, I can feel assured that the treasure will be cleaned up."

Cao Shu found the treasure that Wang Yun had hidden in his early years, and Wei Tu came to Chang'an within a few days.

It took a long time since he received the task assigned by Cao Shuo himself. This time he received the order, Wei Tu was inexplicably happy.

After receiving Cao Shu's order, he took the gold camp to find the treasure.

Although the gold camp specializes in digging graves, the treasures on the surface have been brought back to Chang'an by Cao Shu. What they are looking for are those treasures hidden deep.

When living at home, someone hides something, but it is difficult for other family members to discover it, let alone a very open valley.

I went to the Jinjin Camp for more than ten days. Although news came to Cao Shu every day, there were some rumors that were being searched for.

Cao Shu didn't urge them, letting them search for the treasure.

Since I met Wang Yun last time, the palace has also calmed down for more than ten days since then.

Gan Shi inspected the palace and looked very serious every day, but he did not bring any bad news to Cao Shu.

The evil spirit was obviously still in the palace, but they did not cause trouble for Cao Shuo.

One night more than ten days later, Cao Shu was asleep when he suddenly heard the sound of knocking on the window again.

He sat up suddenly and asked in front of the window, "Is it Wang Yun?"

"It's me." Wang Yun's voice came from outside the window: "I'm here to say goodbye to the King of Wei."

"Say your farewell?" Cao Shu asked, "Aren't you living in the palace free enough? Why did you suddenly think of leaving?"

"Since being harmed by Li Jue and Guo Si back then, there is no such thing as Xiaoyao." Wang Yun sighed leisurely: "I am sorry that although I have the will to serve the country, I have no choice but to die at the hands of the thief."

"To you, I may also be a thief who steals the country." Cao Shu said: "Since you are saying goodbye, why don't you go out of the room to speak?"

"The King of Wei follows the way of heaven. If I were alive, I would definitely think that it was a thief who steals the country, but now I don't think so." Wang Yun said: "Since I was killed by the thief, I have seen many things. I die and the King of Wei live, and life and death are different. How dare I scare the King of Wei again?"

"There are not many people or ghosts in this world who can scare me." Cao Shu said: "When in and talk, I have some things to ask you."

Cao Shu asked Wang Yun to enter the house, and a phantom appeared at the window.

He bowed to Cao Shuo and said, "The King of Wei found the treasure I buried back then?"

"Did I find it? Don't you know better than me?" Cao Shuo said: "I did find some, but I don't think that those are all. How much do you hide, can you tell me clearly?"

"It's indeed more than that." Wang Yun replied: "The King of Wei has sent a gold siege camp to find it, and it should be found soon. So if you don't have these treasures, you just know that the King of Wei will meet a stronger opponent in the near future. After years of war, the country is empty. The King of Wei conquers the world. If he has no money, wouldn't he be the first to be a foreign race?"

Gan Shi also told Cao Shu that at most two or three years, he would meet an extremely powerful enemy.

But Gan Shi didn't explain it clearly at that time.

Wang Yun, who became a soul, also said the same thing, and Cao Shu suddenly felt that this might really happen.

He asked Wang Yun: "Who is the powerful opponent I will meet? Can you tell me one or two?"

"Although I know, I can't say it." Wang Yun replied: "Even people like Gan Shi are afraid of causing trouble. Am I not afraid of being unable to enter the cycle of reincarnation because of the secret of heaven?"

"Since it's inconvenient to say, I won't force you." Cao Shu said: "Take care from now on and go back to the cycle of reincarnation earlier."

"Actually, I don't want to leave either." Wang Yun's tone showed some helplessness: "But the King of Wei hired two ruthless people, and they will come to Chang'an tomorrow. If they don't leave, I'm afraid they will be beaten to ashes."

"Are you talking about Yu Ji and Zuo Ci?" Cao Shuo asked.

"Wang Wang Zhen, I will say goodbye first!" After refusing to say more to Cao Shu, Wang Yun bowed again, and his figure gradually faded away and disappeared in front of Cao Shu's eyes.

When Wang Yun disappeared, Cao Shu suddenly sat up.

He rubbed his swollen head and turned his head to look at the window.

I clearly remember that when Wang Yun appeared, he had already sat up. He was sitting up again. It was obvious that it was a dream just now.

But the dream was too real, so real that he couldn't tell whether it was a dream or that he was actually awake.

I saw Wang Yun again in my dream. Cao Shu sat there for a long time before he lay down and fell asleep again.

He got up until the sun was noon.

While washing and sloping, Deng Zhan hurriedly ran in from outside.

When he arrived in front of Cao Shu, Deng Zhan said, "Lord, Zuo Ci and Yu Ji are here."

When he heard that Zuo Ci and Yu Ji had arrived, Cao Shu instructed Deng Zhan: "Take them here to see me."

Both of them are external sorcerers. Since they became stronger, they have been settled on Bagong Mountain.

Staying away from the world, the two of them practiced smoothly. Although years have passed, they don’t look older than before.

Deng Zhan led them to Cao Shu's residence and entered the room. Yu Ji and Zuo Ci bowed to Cao Shu and asked, "Dare you ask the King of Wei, why do you want us to come to Chang'an for?"

"Some evil spirits have appeared in the palace recently." Cao Shuo said: "Some of them are really capable. Please come here, just to drive the evil spirits out and not to cause trouble in the palace again."

Zuo Ci pinched his finger and calculated, frowned slightly: "It's really strange."

"What's going on?" Cao Shu asked: "Is the evil spirits in the palace too powerful?"
