Chapter 1814
A Different Era
After the banquet, Liu Dong returned to school.
He didn't go back to his dormitory, but went to the playground.
There were very few people on the playground, so Liu Qiu found a corner where no one would know what he was doing.
A ghost floated over.
This is an old man in his fifties. Judging from his clothes, he looks like a wealthy landlord.
And he was indeed a wealthy landlord.
Apiao was a well-known wealthy family in the area before the founding of the People's Republic of China, owning tens of thousands of acres of fertile land.
However, he was kind and good to his tenants, and he even built a bridge and distributed porridge, so the locals called him Old Man Su.
He had two sons and a daughter, all of whom were remarkable.
The eldest son went to military school and became a high-ranking officer in the GMD.
The younger son joined the Communist Party and also became a leading figure.
The youngest daughter went abroad to study and was hired by America as a translator.
Three children, three perspectives.
Later, the eldest son went to Taiwan, while the youngest daughter stayed in America. The youngest son asked Su Laoshan to donate all of the family's farmland.
Old Master Su was reluctant to part with his family's wealth, which was not obtained through exploitation but was accumulated by the Su family over several generations.
Su Laoshan packed some of his family's money and antiques into boxes and buried them in a place known only to him before handing over all his family's wealth.
The youngest son's family lives in Kyoto because of his work.
Su Laoshan was unwilling to leave his hometown, so he lived in the village.
Later, Su Laoshan passed away before he could tell his youngest son the location of the hidden treasure.
Before leaving, the youngest son used his connections to send A Piao's grandson back to his hometown as an educated youth.
After Su Laoshan died, his soul remained in the treasure-hiding place.
When he saw his grandson return, he followed him and wanted to tell him the location of the treasure.
But his grandson can neither see nor hear him.
Upon realizing that Liu Dong could see him, Su Laoshan immediately followed.
Su Laoshan promised Liu Dong, "Tell my grandson where the treasure is hidden, and I will give you a share of the treasure there."
Liu Tong: "Aren't you afraid that if I find out where the treasure is, I won't pass on the message to your grandson, and I'll take everything inside?"
Old Su was shocked; he truly hadn't expected this.
Old Su said fiercely, "If you dare to do that, I will definitely not let you off."
Liu Tong chuckled: "What can you do to me?"
Su Laoshan: "Uh..."
He really couldn't do anything to Liu Tong; he couldn't even touch her.
Su Laoshan: "I stand by your bedside every night and wail, keeping you awake."
Liu Tong: "If you really dare to do that, I will beat you to a pulp."
As he spoke, a yellow talisman appeared in his hand.
Sensing the terrifying power emanating from the yellow talisman, Su Laoshan trembled with fear.
He burst into tears: "Why am I so unlucky..."
Liu Tong -_-||: "Alright, stop crying. I was just kidding. I wouldn't even look at your stuff, I wouldn't want it."
Old Su sobbed, “It’s not just a little bit of stuff; my things are incredibly valuable. Especially the antiques inside, each one has a history. One of them is even a mirror that Yang Guifei used.”
Liu Tong: "I still have a gauze dress that Xi Shi herself washed."
Su Laoshan: "I didn't lie."
Liu Tong: "I didn't lie either."
He had indeed seen Xi Shi.
Su Laoshan got anxious: "I'm serious, all my antiques are genuine." Liu Tong: "Don't rush me, I didn't say your antiques are fake. What I meant was, I don't want any of them, I'll leave them to your grandson."
Master Su: "Master! You are such a kind person!"
Liu Tong: "Alright, stop flattering me. Tell me your grandson's name, which brigade he's in now, and his birth date and time."
Su Laoshan: "Huh? What do you need his birth date and time for?"
Liu Tong: "Don't worry, it's not to harm him, but to use a spell to send you into his dream so that you can personally tell him where the treasure is."
Old Master Su: "Oh, oh, I see. My grandson's birth chart is..."
That night, after everyone else in the dormitory had fallen asleep, Liu Qiu got up and went outside to find a quiet corner, where she began to perform hand seals.
Su Laoshan felt a suction force pulling him towards a certain place.
Liu Tong: "Don't resist."
Su Laoshan: No resistance! No resistance!
He was pulled a great distance by the suction, flew to a village, flew into a house, and entered someone's dream.
In a dream, Su Laoshan met his grandson and told him about the location of the hidden treasure.
His wish was fulfilled, his obsession dissipated, and he soon entered the underworld.
On the other side, Su Wu sat up in bed, recalling the dream she had, which was incredibly vivid.
In his dream, he clearly remembered every word his grandfather said to him.
His grandfather said he buried some things in the mountains. Is that true?
Su Wu's upbringing made him disbelieve it was true, but a sliver of longing remained in his heart.
What if it's true?
Those things are very valuable.
Su Wu searched for a day, then, under the pretext of chopping wood, went into the mountains alone.
In his dream, his grandfather described the location of the hidden treasure in great detail, which made it easy for him to find the place.
Su Wu picked up a hoe and started digging!
They dug for more than two hours, and Su Wu was about to give up.
However, remembering his grandfather's instructions that he had buried the box quite deep, he did not give up and continued digging.
Suddenly, the hoe felt different.
Su Wu quickened his pace, dug away the top layer of soil, and sure enough, he saw a solid wooden box.
Su Wu jumped into the pit, used his machete to cut off the copper lock on the box, opened the lid, and gasped.
The box was full of gold, silver jewelry, and antiques.
Large antiques take up space, so Mr. Su was good at storing small antiques.
Su Wu knew nothing about antiques and was unaware of their value.
But this whole box full of large and small yellow croakers would be worth at least several hundred thousand yuan if converted into cash.
Because of his parents' jobs, Su Wu's family lived a very good life and was not short of money.
But their family's total savings amounted to only two thousand yuan.
And here...
Su Wu took a deep breath to calm himself down, took out three small yellow croakers from the box, closed the lid, jumped up, and started filling the pit with soil.
Now is not the time for these things to be born.
Three small yellow croakers are enough for him to live on for several years.
When I have some free time, I'll take a trip to the black market in the city.
Su Wu stroked the little yellow fish in his arms and thought of his dream again.
The little yellow fish confirmed that his dream was true; his deceased grandfather had come to visit him in a dream.
So, isn't this feudal superstition?
Su Wu's values began to be restructured.
Liu Dong didn't pay attention to Su Wu's treasure hunt. He really had no interest in Su Laoshan's treasure and was too lazy to dig it up.
Three more educated youths arrived in the village, and one of them caught Liu Dong's eye. (End of Chapter)
