Start from the thief

The flashes of swords and sabers kept flashing, and all the disciples who were crippled by the fat elder were killed one by one. Some thanked him, some cursed him, but it didn't matter.

Twenty-one corpses were piled together, and bottles and jars were thrown over at once. Red, green, and blue, flames and thick smoke intertwined together. Together with the fat elder, all the disciples turned into ashes on the ground.

"This way no one should be able to tell how many people died."

After all, Zhao Yushu was an outsider and didn't understand the specific effects of these strange little props for destroying corpses.

"After flushing it with water, not even ashes will be left. Let alone the interior, even a god wouldn't be able to tell how many people died. Let him guess."

The thin man snorted, "Don't waste time, let's get down to business. Whoever learns the best mechanism will have a hard time opening the master's treasure house."

"My fur."

Zhao Yushu was the first to express his opinion, meaning that he was not capable of it.

"I'll go for the first level."

The servant thought about it and reported a number.

"I should be better than him. After all, the Hundred Secrets of the Mechanical Device and the Cloud-Seeking Hand complement each other, and I have learned the Cloud-Seeking Hand quite well."

Master Yu is not humble. A humble monk does not make a good monk.

"Then I guess we're about the same."

The short man nodded and said, "Let's give it a try. Do what you can and take as much as you can."

A group of thugs found their way to the public treasury, where all the things that people handed in when completing tasks were stored.

As for the sect leader's private treasury, they didn't know where it was, and even if they knew, they wouldn't dare touch it.

What a joke. You own a private vault for interior scenes and you're also the boss of this business. Let's not talk about whether you can solve the traps inside. If you can't solve them, even if you get trapped in the exterior scenes, it's hard to say whether you can get out safely.

Time was limited, and there were several public treasure houses, so the group only picked the one that was closest to them and the largest one.

The short man cooperated with Yu Zhao, while Zhao Yushu and the little servant stood guard with weapons in hand. All four of them were sweating.

If one thing goes wrong, everyone will have to bear the consequences.

Fortunately, the two thieves had strong physical strength and successfully avoided one trap after another. A fraction of the treasure that had been passed down for hundreds of years in the Beimang Mountain lineage and accumulated for who knows how many years was now exposed to everyone.

Thanks to the fat elder, after losing the sect's magic weapon, he was so angry that he even crippled the disciple who was responsible for secretly guarding the treasury. Otherwise, even if this disciple had average cultivation, he could at least activate four or five additional traps that required active control, and the four of them would have no chance of survival.

"Namo Maitreya Buddha, I have never seen so much gold in my life."

For a top-notch thief door, what has the most inventory?

In theory, they should be treasures, treasures of various grades.

But the truly great treasures are not placed here.

Even if the leader of a sect is crazy, he would not put earth-grade or even heaven-grade treasures in a public warehouse so openly. They would be locked up layer by layer and either kept for his own use or distributed to his loyal and elite soldiers and right-hand men.

The highest level left for ordinary disciples is only the Xuan level.

So the most important thing is money.

Or the most stable general equivalent in the world.

Monks are also human beings. They need to eat, live in good houses and wear good clothes, all of which cost money.

Money doesn't appear out of thin air with spiritual power, it has to be earned.

What could be more tempting than white silver?

All that glitters is gold!

Zhao Yushu looked at the three temporary teammates beside him who were drooling uncontrollably, and curled his lips in disdain. "A mere few thousand, um, tens of thousands? Perhaps, hundreds of thousands of taels of gold and silver can buy you off? You have never seen the world."

Although I haven't seen it either.

"You two shall divide this gold and silver among yourselves."

Zhao Yushu waved his hands, looking calm and composed. He couldn't take it away anyway.

The way the three looked at him immediately changed; this was the demeanor of a master.

"That treasure?"

If you don't want gold and silver, it means you want treasures. In fact, for a monk, treasures are more valuable.

Zhao Yushu turned around and shook his head: "Not pleasing to the eye."

Woc, you are so pretentious.

The three of them looked at each other. You have the lowest cultivation level in the whole place. It’s okay that you don’t like the gold and silver in the room, but these are genuine lower-grade Xuan-level treasures. You may not have the chance to see them again in your lifetime, so you are not interested in them.

The short man just curled his lips, and suddenly realized, ha, this guy is simply afraid that after taking the most and the best things, he will be forced to squat here and take the blame, and he still speaks so righteously. In this case, he has to take it slowly.

"Speaking of which, Brother Yu, if you leave here, what are your plans?"

Yu Zhao picked up a few gold ingots, collected a few paintings and antiques and put them into the storage bag he had just stolen. He hesitated for a moment and said, "Let's go to Dongdu. It's prosperous enough there, with a lot of people, and it's easier to hide from others. I can change my name. With my skills, it won't be difficult to make a living. Hey, what should I call myself? I finally returned to secular life, and I really don't want to change the surname given by my parents. Oh, right! What do you think of my surname Yu, Yu, the white jade, hehe, a big and strong Jade Young Master!"

Zhao Yushu's hands behind his back suddenly tightened, and he turned around and looked at Yu Zhao in disbelief.

"Jade?"

"Why, this last name is a bit strange, but you can't say we can't call it that."

“Ha, ha, ha, ha ha ha!”

Zhao Yushu suddenly laughed out loud, Damn, I always thought it was a nickname, turns out your real last name is Yu.

"Why are you always laughing?"

Master Yu was unhappy.

"It's okay. I'm fine. I'll find something for you to take with you later. What you have is not enough."

Zhao Yushu wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and said, "Yelü Mingjing, if this is also within your calculations, I will accept it even if I die here."

"what's that?"

"You'll know it later. What about you, old man?"

Zhao Yushu turned to the short man.

"Where I go is none of your business. Besides, you ask this and that but you don't take anything. What do you want?"

Zhao Yushu shook his head: "Don't be nervous, let's put it this way, just take it, don't worry about anything, I will stay here."

"Ok?"

The three of them stopped what they were doing at the same time and looked at Zhao Yushu.

"My cultivation level is the lowest, so running is useless. Besides, I really want to go to that chair and take a look. By the way, do you know where the sect's magic weapon was stolen?"

The little servant raised his hand and said, "I know. In fact, the sect's magic weapon has always been placed next to the sect master's chair. There are restrictions set by the sect master himself. Logically, no one should be able to get close to it."

Zhao Yushu nodded and said nothing more.

"Zhao Liu, are you serious about what you just said?"

The short man spoke hesitantly.

"It's true. If I wanted to leave, you could just kill me."

"Okay, if you don't die, I'll make you my friend in the future. Now that it's come to this, I'll be honest. I'm from Liao, but I'm not a noble. I don't have a name or a surname. This time when I go back, I'm going to become a high-ranking official and marry a woman with the surname Xiao or Yelu, and we'll be royal relatives."

Zhao Yushu stared at the short man's face and vaguely saw a familiar shadow on it.
