Traveling through the millennium: creating a prosperous dynasty with you

The head of the Qian family asked them to notify and find the prepared carriages. When he notified them, several people took the order and went to work. The head of the Qian family returned to the front yard and walked into the stable. The horses inside saw someone reaching out to touch the trough and thought that someone was coming to feed them. They sniffed and wanted to come over here. The ropes tied to them kicked them anxiously. The head of the Qian family touched the switch under the trough and entered the warehouse where the feed was stored next to the stable. He took away a pile of hay in a corner of the warehouse. A stone slab underneath had become loose. He lifted the stone slab and a small path extended downward. He blew the fire stick and went down. He lit the lamp in the groove of the wall. After walking a dozen steps in, he used fire to burn a protrusion for a while. The protrusion's heating mechanism was activated, and the head of the Qian family quickly hid in a depression on the side. One side of the wall tilted and slowly fell to the ground. If An Chen saw it, he would definitely guess that this place was exactly the same as the mechanism in the yard in Dongfu City.

When the head of the Qian family came out of the depression, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He hurriedly stepped on the wall and entered the underground courtyard. Oh my god, except for a few night-shining pearls on the load-bearing pillars, there was nothing inside. Who could tell him what happened?

"How is it possible? How is it possible? My entire yard was hollowed out, which is equivalent to a yard's worth of food. Can anyone tell me how it all disappeared in an instant? Who did it?" The head of the Qian family turned around and came out to ask the steward.

"Has anyone been here since I left the stable?"

"The young master's servant came to take the horse, and no one else has come."

"Have you heard any unusual noises in the past few days?"

"No, sir. What's the matter?"

This steward was a person rescued by the head of the Qian family. He was left alone. In order to repay the kindness of the head of the Qian family, he protected his master many times. The head of the Qian family trusted him and asked him to do many things, including the construction of this courtyard, which he had been supervising. The head of the Qian family never doubted him. He suddenly remembered the soldiers in the backyard, who had always been led by Sun Mao. The third prince believed that Sun Mao was sincere in his surrender, but based on his own intuition, he did not trust Sun Mao. Although the death of General Sima was caused by Sun Mao, he felt that Sun Mao might have guessed that it was the third prince who used him to set a trap to kill General Sima and the soldiers who went to the battle that time, and also caused Sima Yi to disappear.

He hurried back to the backyard, but no one was there. He walked into a room and opened the secret passage. The light inside was still on, and it was obvious that someone had just left. This secret passage led directly to the foot of the back mountain, a thousand meters away from the village. He walked along the secret passage until his feet were worn out, and finally saw the exit. This exit was behind a small waterfall, which he had discovered when he came here to hunt and chase a rabbit when he was young.

The rabbit went in through a hole beside the waterfall. He found some firewood, lit it and stuffed it into the rabbit hole. After a while, he found that there were several holes nearby with smoke coming out. He asked someone to seal all the holes and continued to throw firewood in. He didn't see any smoke around him. Just when he was wondering, he suddenly saw smoke behind the waterfall. Fortunately, nothing happened. He asked someone to dig in along the rabbit hole, bypassing the pool under the waterfall and actually dug into the open space behind the waterfall. The open space stretched inwards and there was no end in sight. They lit a fire and walked a long way in. It was really unexpected that they hadn't reached the end yet.

The head of the Qian family led his men out first and had them seal up all the holes. He told his followers: "Don't tell anyone about this. If anyone leaks the news, the whole family will go to accompany the ancestors."

The manager of this manor was one of those people. After that, the head of the Qian family never went to that place again, until he had the intention of supporting the third prince to seize the throne, so he secretly arranged for people to dig out the yard to store supplies. A secret passage was dug from the backyard directly to the space behind the waterfall. After the secret passage was dug, he sent people to carefully explore the space. From the outside, it was a big mountain with steep terrain. No one had ever climbed it. Walking from the inside of the mountain, there were places where you could see the sky when you looked up. It could accommodate tens of thousands of people. After understanding the terrain, the head of the Qian family excitedly shouted: "God really helps me!"

The reason why the Third Prince brought his troops here this time was because of this good place. Last time, the group was mainly looking for food and did not go further, so they were lucky to escape. No wonder Anchen's people searched here for several days without seeing anyone.

After entering the mountain space, the head of the Qian family saw that they were busy harnessing the carriage and packing up. Someone had already gone to call their leader. The head of the Qian family took a short break and continued to walk inside. He looked carefully at his feet and found nothing unusual. He thought to himself: "Am I being too suspicious? Let me ask first."

Several leaders came over and asked the head of the Qian family: "The head of the Qian family came here in person. Did something happen outside?"

"Come and ask how many trucks of grain are loaded?"

"What do you mean, Master Qian? We just came here to inform everyone to prepare the carriages. We haven't seen how much food there is, so how can we know how much can be loaded? You should know better, right? What do you mean by asking this? Is there something wrong with the food?"

After decades of experience in the business world, the head of the Qian family managed to calm his trembling heart. He said to a few people: "Hey! To be honest, I just went downstairs to check the food, and it was all gone. It would be great if you really took it away, so much food disappeared without a sound. Besides, you have been staying in the yard the whole time, and you didn't hear any movement. This is not normal."

"It might be possible for someone with good kung fu to secretly transport it away while we are not paying attention."

The head of the Qian family gave them a look and asked them to understand for themselves. "Do you know how much grain that is? A whole yard of grain. Who has such good skills to move all of it away without anyone noticing?"

Several people found it incredible. The head of the Qian family suddenly thought of someone---Xu Zhen.

"It must be her. Only she could have such a great ability. If she really took it, it would be a big deal."

"Who is Patriarch Qian thinking of?"

The head of the Qian family suddenly stood up and said to several people: "It is not suitable to stay here for long, you should leave quickly."

Several people looked at each other, confused. "With 20,000 of us here, who could have frightened the head of the Qian family so much?"

The head of the Qian family waved his hand and said, "I don't have time to talk to you. I have to go out quickly. You wait here first. You must not leave until I come."

Several people became more and more confused. "What's going on? Please tell us so that we can prepare in advance."

The head of the Qian family said: "Well, I will let you know sooner or later. Have you heard of the goddess?"

"Of course I've heard of her. Do you suspect her?"

The head of the Qian family nodded and said, "Since she can take away the stones and turn them into various things, it is natural that she can take away the food. Besides, who else has this ability?"

Several people were a little panicked. Although they had trained for several years, they had never participated in a real war. They were not only afraid of the legendary goddess, but also had a natural awe. They asked the head of the Qian family: "If it is really her, what should we do?"
