Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 84
There was more than just a slap mark on Bai Jingjing's pretty face.

One on the left, one on the right... there should be at least two, their faces are already swollen, they look so funny and cute...

"Uh……"

Seeing this scene, Cao Ting's eyes suddenly widened, and what he wanted to say to Wu Liang got stuck, and he was stunned for a long time before finally changing his words, "The talented and virtuous brother is indeed the role model of my generation that I know, I admire you." admire."

"Brother Anmin is absurd."

Wu Liang laughed.

"How's the harvest?"

Cao Ting immediately asked again in a lower voice.

"I only collected a few dozen catties of gold, but I got a priceless luminous pearl. If I give it to the envoy after I go back, I am afraid that the envoy will be eye-opening when he sees it."

Wu Liang patted the Eternal Bright Orb wrapped in his clothes, and smiled mysteriously.

"Oh?"

Cao Ting immediately became interested, but he also knew that this treasure is not the time to observe it now, so he immediately restrained and said, "I will look at it when there is no one, and I will look at it when there is no one."

"However, this luminous bead is also of great use to our Huren army. If you can carry this object to illuminate the tomb, you will be able to get twice the result with half the effort, so that you can find more military pay."

Wu Liang then added, "So after presenting this item to the envoy, please ask Brother Anmin to borrow it from the envoy for the use of the Huan army temporarily. I think that the wisdom and courage of the envoy should be distinguished. , will definitely not refuse."

"It's natural. A mere luminous bead is really worth a lot. How can it satisfy my uncle's ambition."

Cao Ting nodded, patted his chest and smiled proudly, "What's more, the gold we transported back last time is almost helping my uncle take Xuzhou. Compared with a city and a state, even I can't stand it." Know how to choose, let alone my uncle."

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

While the two were talking.

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

"Verification is ok, let's exchange hostages first."

Wu Liang stood up and said seriously.

"Let go!"

Bai Qiru was also unambiguous, turned around and waved his hands, and immediately the grave guards untied the four captured scouts.

"Let her go."

Wu Liang also nodded at Dian Wei.

He was no longer worried about the tomb guards playing other tricks, their strength was no match for the Huan army.

Even if this is Yuan Shao's domain, and the purpose of the tomb guards is to guard the tomb, they definitely wouldn't dare to call for foreign aid casually, otherwise they would lead to wolves entering the house if they were not careful, and the gains would outweigh the losses.

What's more, this is a group of upright tomb guards who can't even be wretched...

The hostage exchange was thus completed.

As soon as Bai Jingjing came to Bai Qiru's side, she saw that Bai Qiru had already frowned, staring at her ups and downs and asked in a deep voice: "Jingjing, your face...but that person beat you, he threatened you ?”

Bai Jingjing buried her face in her chest again in an instant, and said in a voice like a mosquito: "Father, I don't blame him for this matter. My daughter lost her mind in the tomb. He came up with this trick to help her call her soul back. He saved his daughter..."

"Why don't you pinch people when you're lost?"

Bai Qiru asked again.

"Probably...he doesn't understand?"

Bai Jingjing kept her eyes on her nose and her heart, and said in a low voice, "But father, don't worry, it's just some skin trauma, and it will recover in a day."

Hearing this, Bai Qiru's complexion improved a little, and he nodded, "Since he is willing to save you, it seems that what he said before that he has good feelings for you may not be unfounded."

"Father……"

Bai Jingjing stamped her feet angrily.

If it weren't for the fact that it is inconvenient to explain the details, she really wanted to have a good talk with her father, so that he could teach him how the slap marks on her face came from, and how did she feel good about her being so ruthless?

Could this be called the depth of love, the depth of love?

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

Bai Qiru thought it was Bai Jingjing's embarrassment, so he didn't waste any more time on this topic, and then asked seriously, "Can you see what he took from the tomb?"

"I only saw that he took an ever-bright pearl and wrapped it in his clothes."

Bai Jingjing said.

"Sui Hou Zhu!?"

Bai Qiru shuddered, and said with a frown, "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 choose!"

"Father……"

But Bai Jingjing suddenly showed a look of hesitation.

"Speak straight."

Bai Qiru raised his eyes and said.

"My daughter saw many... unimaginable things in the tomb, and she felt a little doubtful, so I wanted to ask my father, what kind of person is the former king that our Bai family has guarded for generations..."

Bai Jingjing said hesitantly.

"shut up!"

However, Bai Qiru had already widened his eyes, and stopped her with a stern voice, "The former king was honorable, and my Bai family is a minister, so there is no reason to talk about it! From today on, no matter what you see in the tomb, you will never be allowed to see it again." If you say a word to anyone, if you dare to speak nonsense again, don’t blame your father for enforcing the family law, do you hear me clearly!?”

"Yes, father..."

Bai Jingjing quickly lowered her head, it was the first time she had seen her father be so strict after growing so big.

"One more thing."

Bai Qiru took a breath to restrain his emotions, and then said, "That man is quite a man of faith, he had promised to help us reseal the tomb of the former king before he left, and he would probably do the same It will take a few days to keep your promise. I just discussed with the elders in the clan. Since you can still talk to that person, that person may really have a good impression of you. This matter can only be resolved by You do it."

"What's the matter?"

Bai Jingjing asked with a little confidence.

"Use these few days of work to find out the person's real name, identity, address and other information. The more detailed the better, this is an important clue for us to find the Suihou Pearl and return it to its original owner."

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 child, why don't you know how to be flexible like me?"

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

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

Bai Jingjing slightly frowned.

"You can buy him a drink."

Bai Qiru looked at Bai Jingjing helplessly, shook his head and said, "He has been here for several days, and he only has some boring dry food to fill his stomach all day long. If you buy some wine and invite him to drink, he will definitely not be able to refuse. When you are in the mood, if you ask any questions, he will probably answer truthfully."

"If you still can't ask, does father have a plan?"

Over the past few days, Bai Jingjing knew that Wu Liang couldn't be fooled so easily, so she asked again.

"Of course there is. Doesn't this person have some good feelings for you, so you feel wronged and pretend to be nice to him. When he is fascinated and wants to marry you, you have to follow the orders of your parents and the words of the matchmaker. If you ask him personally as the future father-in-law, I can't help him not to say it!"

Bai Qiru stroked his beard and looked confident, "However, the ancestor's precepts cannot be broken. As long as he is willing to say it, I will reject this marriage on the grounds of incompatibility. Forgive him and he has nothing to say."

"..."

Why do these words sound familiar, Bai Jingjing helplessly supported her forehead, "Father, daughter thinks... why don't we just fight with them?"
