I saw that there was more than just a slap mark on Bai Jingjing's pretty face.

One on the left, one on the right... there must be at least two of them, their faces are all swollen, and they look a bit funny and cute...

"Well……"

Seeing this scene, Cao Zhen's eyes suddenly widened a little, and what he originally wanted to say to Wu Liang was stuck. He was stunned for a long time before finally changing his words, "You are indeed the role model of our generation that I know. I admire you."

admire."

"Brother Anmin is so complimentary."

Wu Liang chuckled.

"How was the harvest?"

Cao Zhen immediately asked seriously in a lower voice.

"I only collected a few dozen kilograms of gold, but I got a priceless luminous bead. If I offer it to the envoy after I go back, even the envoy will be shocked to see it."

Wu Liang patted the Changming Orb wrapped in his clothes and smiled mysteriously.

"oh?"

Cao Zhen immediately became interested, but he also knew that this was not the time to inspect this treasure, so he immediately restrained himself and said, "Wait until no one is around to look at it, and then look at it when no one is around."

"However, these luminous beads are also of great use to our army. If we can carry these luminous beads for lighting when entering the tomb, we will be able to get twice the result with half the effort, so that you can find more military pay."

Wu Liang then added, "Therefore, after I present this thing to the envoy, I ask Brother Anmin to borrow it from the envoy for temporary use by the army. I think with your wisdom and courage, you should be able to distinguish which is more important."

, I will definitely not refuse.”

"This is nature. A mere luminous bead is really worth a fortune, so how can it satisfy my uncle's ambition?"

Cao Chen nodded, patted his chest and said with a proud smile, "What's more, the gold we brought back last time has almost helped my uncle take Xuzhou. Compared with one city and one state, even I can't."

You know how to choose, let alone my uncle."

Emmm...it belongs to Boss Cao in name, but in fact it belongs to me.

While the two were talking.

Bai Qiru had already stepped forward again, raised his hands and said to Cao Zhen and Wu Liang: "Since you have finished opening the tomb, can you call my little girl over? I want to verify with her personally whether you have kept your previous promise."

"Verification is OK. Let's exchange hostages first."

Wu Liang stood up and said seriously.

"Let them go!"

Bai Qiru was also unambiguous. He turned around and waved his hand, and the tombkeeper immediately released the four captured scouts.

"Let her go."

Wu Liang also nodded to Dian Wei.

He is no longer worried about the other tricks played by the tombkeepers. Their strength is no match for the Hu army.

Even if this is Yuan Shao's territory, and the purpose of the tomb guard is to guard the tomb, he certainly would not dare to call for foreign aid casually, otherwise he will accidentally lead a wolf into the house, and the gain will not be worth the loss.

What's more, these are a group of upright tomb-keepers who don't even know how to be obscene...

This completes the exchange of hostages.

As soon as Bai Jingjing came to Bai Qiru's side, she saw that Bai Qiru had already frowned, staring at her high and low cheeks and asked in a deep voice: "Jingjing, your face... But that person beat you, he intimidated you

?”

Bai Jingjing instantly buried her face in her chest again, and said in a voice as loud as a mosquito: "Father, I don't blame him for this. My daughter was lost in the tomb. He made this move to help his daughter bring her soul back. It's true.

He saved his daughter..."

"Why don't you pinch people when you're so confused?"

Bai Qiru asked again.

"Maybe... he doesn't understand, right?"

Bai Jingjing looked at her nose and heart, and said in a low voice, "But father, don't worry, it's just a superficial injury, it can be recovered in a day."

After hearing this, Bai Qiru's face became slightly better, and he nodded and said, "Since he is willing to save you, it seems that what he said before about having a good impression of you may not be unfounded."

"Father……"

Bai Jingjing immediately stamped her feet angrily.

If it weren't for the inconvenience of explaining the details, she really wanted to have a good talk with her father, so that she could teach him how the slap marks on her face came from. Is it a good idea to hit her so hard?

Could this be called deep love and intense love?

"well, let's get back to business."

Bai Qiru only thought that this was Bai Jingjing's shame, so he did not waste any more time on this topic, and then asked seriously, "Can you see clearly what he took in the tomb?"

"I saw him take out a pearl of everlasting brightness and wrap it in his clothes."

Bai Jingjing said.

"Suihou Zhu!?"

Bai Qiru trembled, frowned and said, "That is the most precious treasure of the late king. I don't know how much effort it took to keep it as his own. He really knows how to pick it!"

"Father……"

Bai Jingjing suddenly looked like she was hesitant to speak.

"Speak directly if you have something to say."

Bai Qiru raised his eyes and said.

"My daughter also saw many... unimaginable things in the tomb, and she had some doubts in her heart, so she wanted to ask her father what kind of person the late king, whom our Bai family has guarded for generations, was..."

Bai Jingjing said hesitantly.

"shut up!"

Bai Qiru, however, had already opened his eyes and stopped her with a stern voice, "The late king has a distinguished status, and I, the Bai family, are human subjects, so there is no reason to discuss it! From today on, no matter what you see in the tomb, you will never allow it to happen again."

If you say a word to anyone, if you dare to talk nonsense again, don't blame your father for enforcing family law, do you hear me clearly!?"

"Yes, father..."

Bai Jingjing quickly lowered her head. She has grown so big, and this is the first time she has seen her father so strict.

"One more thing."

Bai Qiru took a breath to restrain his emotions, and then said, "That man is quite true to his word. He promised before that he would help us seal the tomb of the late king before leaving. I think he will do the same."

Keeping your promise will take a few days. I just discussed it with the elders of the clan. Since you can still talk to that person, and that person may really have some affection for you, this matter can only be decided by

You do it."

"What's the matter?"

Bai Jingjing asked with some lack of confidence.

"In the past few days, we must find out this person's real name, identity, address and other information. The more detailed the better, this will be an important clue for us to find the Suihou beads and return them to their original owners in the future."

Bai Qiru said.

"This...father doesn't know something. I tested him a few days ago, but he was extremely vigilant and never revealed a word to me."

Bai Jingjing said in embarrassment.

"You kid, how come you're not as flexible as me?"

Bai Qiru hated the iron and said, "If he wants to guard against you, ordinary temptations will be useless. Why can't you think of other ways and ask again when he is defenseless?"

"This... daughter is stupid, please tell her father clearly."

Bai Jingjing frowned slightly.

"You can treat him to a drink."

Bai Qiru looked at Bai Jingjing helplessly, shook his head and said, "He has been here for a few days, and he only has some boring dry food to fill his stomach. Tomorrow, if you bring some wine and invite him to drink, he will definitely not be able to refuse. When he drinks,

When you are in a good mood, if you ask anything, he will probably answer truthfully."

"If this is the case and you still can't find out, does your father have any plans?"

After these few days, Bai Jingjing knew that Wu Liang could not be fooled so easily, so she asked again.

"Of course there is. Doesn't this person have some affection for you? So you suffered some grievances and pretended to be good to him. When he is fascinated and wants to marry you, you will have to follow your parents' orders and the matchmaker's words. Then I will talk about it.

As my future father-in-law, if I ask him personally, I can’t help but let him not tell me!”

Bai Qiru stroked his beard and looked confident, "But the ancestral teaching cannot be broken. As long as he is willing to say it, I will reject the marriage on the grounds of incompatibility. I understand that he has nothing to say."
