Siheyuan: Black and steady Gou Laoliu

Chapter 79: It’s all greed that’s to blame

There is no doubt that the place indicated by this treasure map is the mysterious cave in the back mountain.

The person who drew the treasure map also spent a lot of effort. There is no route guide, and there is no symbolic hill or stone tree of Qinjia Village.

The painting shows a partial view in front of the cave, as if taking a photo while standing at the entrance of the cave, and then outlining the mountains, rocks, and trees that one sees.

This is equivalent to someone taking a photo and asking you to find the shooting location and angle.

If Han Li had not been to that mysterious cave and searched for the treasure according to the treasure map, he would probably never find the treasure in his lifetime.

When Han Lina compared the geographical location of the mysterious cave in the back mountain with the treasure location on the treasure map, they matched perfectly. He immediately confirmed that the treasure map was real.

The mysterious cave in the back mountain is a time bomb, not to mention this treasure map.

Han Li is well aware of the truth that "a man is innocent unless he is in possession of a treasure."

Moreover, with Zhou Dabao's bad character, if this treasure map can be sold once, it can be sold countless times.

With Zhou Dachang's cleverness, he most likely had a backup of the treasure map. At the very least, he had already memorized the treasure map by heart.

In addition, there is no clue to open the mechanism in the cave on the treasure map, which means that if villagers who are familiar with the terrain really follow the treasure map to find the mysterious cave in the back mountain, they will only find an empty cave, and ultimately it will be a false alarm.

So, the question is, if the treasure map is real, who took the treasure in the cave?

When the time comes, just ask Zhou the gangster and he will be able to sell Han Li out in minutes: Han Li was the first one to buy the treasure map, and the treasure in the cave must have been emptied by Han Li!

When trouble comes, how should Han Li explain?

You said you didn't take the treasure in the cave, but could the treasure grow wings and fly away by itself?

To sum up, this treasure map is definitely a hot potato and should not be kept.

The most important thing is that Han Li already knows the treasure location indicated by the treasure map. The treasure map is of no use other than bringing disaster.

In short, whoever wants this treasure map can take it, but Han Li will definitely not take it.

At this moment, Han Li sighed inwardly, regretting his decision. He was blinded by the benefits and bought a hot potato in a fit of rage, without considering the huge risks hidden behind the treasure map.

At that time, he was even arrogantly thinking that it was because Zhou the ruffian had too little knowledge and experience that he was unable to find the treasure hiding place, while he himself was experienced and should have a great chance of solving the puzzle and finding the treasure.

It’s all because of greed!

Not long after, Han Li caught up with Zhou Dachang, who was not in good condition.

Han Li didn't waste any words and said angrily: "Give me back my money, I don't want this thing anymore!"

Zhou Da Pizi frowned and looked at Han Li with a slanted look in his eyes. A cunning look flashed in his eyes, and he asked seriously: "Are you sure you don't want it?"

"No!" Han Li said angrily: "Your picture is a lie, there is no such place at all! I was fooled by you just now!"

Zhou the scoundrel sighed helplessly: "Well, if it were someone else, I would definitely not return it, but you have done me a favor, so I won't take advantage of you. But first, let me see if I took the wrong treasure map?"

Han Li took out the treasure map, unfolded it, and slowly handed it over.

At this moment, Zhou Dachang grinned with a smile of success, and sneered in his heart: You are such a big fool, who else can I fool if not you! After I get the treasure map back, I can find another big fool to sell it to!

Even Zhou Da Pizi had prepared some words to mock Han Shazi later: Refund? What money? Have you ever heard of "no refund or exchange after purchase"? You have already seen the treasure map, why should I refund you?

Zhou Dachang also knew that he could not find the treasure according to the treasure map, because he had obtained the treasure map for nearly three years. He also searched the entire Qinjia Village thoroughly but could not find the location on the treasure map.

Moreover, this treasure map had already been engraved in his mind. He even drew an identical copy just in case, because he firmly believed that this treasure map was real.

At this moment, the quarrel between the two has attracted the attention of many villagers.

Just as Zhou Da Pizi was about to pull his hand away from the treasure map, Han Li suddenly said vigilantly: "No, you have to give me the money first, then I can give you the treasure map!"

"Qin Huairu, where are you going?" Zhou Da Pizi smiled and said hello to Han Li from behind. Just when Han Li turned around, Zhou Da Pizi suddenly pulled his hand away: "Give it to me!"

"His..."

When Han Li suddenly turned around, he saw that only half of the treasure map was left in his hand. He immediately asked angrily: "Zhou the scoundrel, don't you think about paying me back?"

Seeing the treasure map being torn into pieces, Zhou Dachang felt depressed and angry. He glared at Han Li and said unhappily:

"Now that the treasure map has been damaged by you, if you don't give me your half, I won't give you the remaining half, let alone the money. Give me the half of the treasure map in your hand, and I will definitely return the money to you because of your kindness to me."

Han Li stared, stiffened his neck and said: "I don't trust you! Give me the money first!"

Seeing that he couldn't trick Han Li, Zhou Da Pizi lost his patience and said nonchalantly: "Then you can take half of the treasure map and go find the treasure."

Han Li was so angry that he gnashed his teeth, his face full of grief and indignation, and then he tore the half of the treasure map in his hand into pieces, saying indignantly: "It's my bad luck! I'd better tear it up as soon as possible so that you can't use it to harm others!"

Zhou Dachang was so angry that he was furious. He pointed at Han Li's nose and cursed: "Han Li, you are a fool! Idiot! Idiot! You deserve to be cheated!"

You know, in order to make Han Li take the bait smoothly, Zhou Da Pizi took the original treasure map.

Even though he had been searching for the treasure for almost three years without finding it, he still had some attachment to the treasure map from time to time. If it had not been for his serious leg injury, which threatened to starve to death, he would not have been willing to sell the treasure map.

After all, his legs and feet are not very flexible, and if he goes to get food and is discovered, he won’t be able to escape.

The most important thing is that after being seriously injured, one needs to supplement nutrition urgently to avoid developing a chronic disease and becoming a real cripple.

Now that the treasure map that he valued so much had been torn to pieces by Han Li, how could Zhou the gangster not feel hatred and anger? With mixed hatred and anger, he even wanted to kill Han the fool.

Han Li was so angry that he couldn't speak. His fingers were shaking violently as he pointed at Zhou the Ruffian. He shouted angrily, "You, you are lying and you think you are right! You will get retribution sooner or later for hurting others like this!"

At this time, the villagers who heard the quarrel between Zhou the gangster and Xiao Han the doctor hurried over to join in the fun.

Zhou the gangster was well aware of his bad reputation and if he didn't leave now he would be stuck. He glared at Han Li fiercely and turned away.

Han Li stared at Zhou Da Pizi's hurriedly leaving back with an angry face, thinking sinisterly:

"When this thunder explodes, I don't want to be affected, so you will have to bear the consequences of the explosion alone! After all, it's better for me to die than for my fellow Taoist to die!"
