Old man Zhang left.

Zhang Shan quietly guarded the door every day. Just as old man Zhang said, he didn't come back for several days in a row.

Zhang Shan is not idle either. If he wants to make money in the future, he must learn to "speak". As the saying goes, many skills are not overwhelming.

So, Zhang Shan locked himself in Old Zhang's room at night, then got into the quilt, and adjusted his awkward pronunciation over and over again.

Someone was passing by Old Man Zhang's yard and vaguely heard a long and shrill "ghost scream" coming from the yard.

"Grandma, head~, Grandma, head~"

"Play, play~, play, play~"

"Oh uh~, oh uh~"

"Repay the generosity~, return the generosity~"

"I want fish~, I want fish~"

"Buckle and bend, buckle and bend"

"White fish~, white fish~"

"..."

The passers-by were almost frightened and ran away in panic.

Neighbors all know that Mr. Zhang lives alone. He has not come back since he went out a few days ago. There is only one cat in the yard.

The voice sounded like a child learning to speak, but the voice and tone were ethereal and strange.

As a result, it was rumored that there was a ghost in Old Man Zhang's house at night.

Everyone speculated.

Some people say that a child who was just learning to speak drowned in the well in the yard; some say that Old Man Zhang killed the child, buried it in the yard and escaped; others say that Old Man Zhang’s cat has not heard meowing recently, so it must be Eaten by a kid...

There was an uproar outside, and Zhang Shan couldn't sit still anymore.

According to legend, Old Man Zhang killed a child, threw it into a well and ran away. The ghost of the child possessed the cat and came out in the middle of the night to complain.

In order to save his life and avoid being burned to death as a ghost, Zhang Shan decided to leave here to find Bai Yu.

Zhang Shan conducted a thorough cleaning before leaving.

Old man Zhang took part of the family's money with him when he left. Zhang Shan opened the cabinet where the money was hidden. Inside, there were two banknotes, one for twenty taels and one for ten taels, as well as a few pieces of broken silver, several hundred dollars. A copper plate.

I don’t know why Old Man Zhang didn’t lock the cabinet when he left.

Zhang Shan touched the banknote and silently recharged it. After waiting for a while, the banknote did not disappear and the points did not change.

Zhang Shan tried several more times, but still couldn't recharge. The banknote didn't work. Zhang Shan tried the silver again, and the silver was successfully recharged.

Banknotes don't work but money does. Zhang Shan doesn't know why.

Zhang Shan guessed that what can be recharged refers to the item itself, the silver itself has value, and the banknote itself is a piece of paper, which can only refer to valuable silver.

Don’t think too much, just recharge all the broken silver into points.

Points: 210

All the remaining banknotes and copper plates were put into the space, as well as the dried fish at home, the remaining three eggs, the dagger in Old Man Zhang's room, and a dozen pieces of paper in the study.

Zhang Shan looked at the rice, noodles, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar in the kitchen, and put them all into the space with a shameful attitude of waste.

Zhang Shan thought for a while, it was late autumn, so he took old man Zhang a newer cotton coat.

Fortunately, the things stored in the space are isolated and will not be damaged or smelly.

That night, it was completely dark, and the moon was covered by clouds, revealing only a faint light.

At about 9 o'clock in the evening, Zhang Shan secretly left Old Man Zhang's yard, and the money bag like a token was stuffed into the space by Zhang Shan.

Out of the yard, Zhang Shan jumped between the rooftops silently. When passing by the street, the sound of human voices came from below.

"Brother, do you think there are really ghosts in this world?" came a young girl's voice with a slight trembling.

Zhang Shan stopped and wanted to hear the ancients' views on ghosts, even though he had heard it many times.

"Junior sister," a young man's voice sounded.

"There are no ghosts in this world! If there are, someone must be pretending to be a ghost. Ghosts are not scary, what is scary is the human heart. If people have ghosts in their hearts, they will feel that there are ghosts in the world."

"Oh." The junior sister said calmly, obviously not convinced, but she did not refute what the senior brother said.

"Don't be afraid, you will follow me later."

When the senior brother saw that the junior sister didn't believe it, he didn't say anything else. Some things can only be believed after experiencing them.

"It's not far ahead. Senior brother, I want to meet this 'little devil' myself!"

With that said, they walked away, Zhang Shan looked at their backs, as if they were heading towards Old Man Zhang's yard.

Zhang Shan thought to himself, as expected, the others were alarmed. Now that there was a mixed crowd in the city, these two were probably not the only ones to notice.

It was so dangerous. Fortunately, I took the first step, otherwise I would have been hacked to death.

Zhang Shan suddenly lost interest and continued to rush to the east of the city.

The south of the city is about six miles away from the main street in the east of the city. It takes about two hours to walk, so it is relatively close.

Zhang Shan didn't take the usual route, and it took him almost half an hour to get to the east of the city.

Before reaching Chengdong Street, the sound of weapons clashing could be faintly heard from a large area ahead.

Zhang Shan slowed down and did not intend to go forward to join in the fun. He looked for a hidden corner to hide and wait.

After waiting for almost two hours, the sound of weapons clashing became quieter, and Zhang Shan thought the matter was over.

Unexpectedly, a group of men in black suddenly appeared more than ten meters ahead. They used Qinggong to join the melee, and the sound of weapons clashing sounded again.

Zhang Shan called him a good guy.

The fighting place was about thirty meters away, with a dark shadow swaying in front of them.

Cats are short-sighted. At night, when the light is weak, they can only see clearly seven or eight meters in front of them.

Zhang Shan suddenly felt that the place where he was now was not safe. He was afraid that they would not even let the cat go, but he did not dare to move, so he had to close his eyes to avoid being discovered due to the light reflection of the cat's eyes.

Zhang Shan waited anxiously with confused thoughts.

In the chaos, I heard something about the Qianqiu Mountain Picture, the imperial court, and the aristocratic family.

The Qianqiu Mountain Picture appears? Even the imperial court has come to an end? The other forces must have come to an end as well.

Zhang Shan doesn't care how they fight for or distribute the treasure, Zhang Shan only knows that many people will die.

Zhang Shan thought of Old Man Zhang. Old Man Zhang was probably involved, right?

There are also Bai Yu and Bai Nian, they are all here for the treasure.

Zhang Shan didn't say anything about being full of copper, worshiping money, and obsessed with profit.

Everyone in the world is interested in profit, and even he is no more than that.

When you have little money, you want to work hard to make money and compete for fame and profit; when you have more money, you have to work harder to make money and compete for fame and profit. Many things can no longer be decided by yourself.

Just like a gear, when you are alone, you can go wherever you want. When there are many people, the gear is too big to be pushed by one person. The direction of the gear is controlled by the majority of people, and individuals follow the rules. Smooth and unobstructed, going against the direction will lead to difficulties and obstacles, and the direction of this gear refers to fame and fortune.

Zhang Shan waited for more than an hour before the sound of fighting in front gradually stopped.

After about 15 minutes, the sound completely disappeared.

Zhang Shan didn't dare to come out when he smelled the slightly strong smell of blood.

Zhang Shan waited for another quarter of an hour, but there was no movement.

Just when I was about to get up, I heard the sound of "Suddenly~".

A few meters to the left, someone was running towards us, running very fast with quick steps.

There seemed to be two people chasing after him, and they both ran past in a swish.

The night is not over yet!

Zhang Shan helplessly waited for another cup of tea, and someone else came from behind.

It was already late at night, and Zhang Shan decided not to hang out with them anymore. After waiting for a moment and seeing no one coming, he jumped off the roof, walked along the edge of the wall, bypassed the fighting scene in front, and entered Chengdong Street. .
