I fell through the tunnel and brought my family to live a good life

After walking down about forty steps, the two men came to a flat area, but surprisingly, there were six stone doors, each with four locks.

"Master Tang is indeed cautious," Xu Congyi chuckled. These locks can protect against many people, but they definitely cannot protect against her, because she can move with her mind.

Xu Congyi listened carefully to the movements behind the first door, her ears capturing every subtle sound, fearing to miss any clues that might indicate danger. After making sure that it was quiet and safe inside, she made a decisive decision and quickly took Shen Xiao inside.

The flashlight cut a bright beam in the darkness, and she suddenly understood.

I understand what it means to want to hold you in the palm of my hand.

The first room, with its golden and sparkling jewelry, immediately caught Xu Congyi's heart.

Xu Congyi couldn't help but pinch Shen Xiao, "Brother Shen Xiao, tell me, I am not dreaming!"

Shen Xiao endured the pain and answered with a grin, "No, absolutely not!"

Xu Congyi was ecstatic, but she resisted the urge to take everything away. After all, this was only the first room, and there were five more to come, so she had to check them all out one by one.

She quickly put away her big tooth flower and took Shen Xiao to the next few stone houses. The first five rooms were filled with gold, silver and jewelry. One of them was full of boxes, and each box was filled with gold ingots. Xu Congyi swallowed his saliva many times.

Until they reached the last room, Shen Xiao shone the flashlight. After just one glance, Xu Congyi felt that Shen Xiao's body seemed to stiffen all of a sudden, and even the temperature of his hands dropped rapidly, becoming so cold that it made his heart palpitate.

Xu Congyi looked at Shen Xiao in confusion. She realized that this room was completely different from the other rooms. The room was decorated very cozy, the bed was neat, there were several pots of artificial flowers on the windowsill, and the air seemed to be filled with a faint scent of powder. This was obviously a woman's bedroom. To be more precise, it was a carefully decorated bedroom full of feminine atmosphere.

"What's wrong?" Xu Congyi asked in confusion. She tried to find the answer from Shen Xiao's face.

Shen Xiao clenched his teeth and said in a trembling voice: "This is exactly the same as my mother's room..."

"What!" Xu Congyi exclaimed. She could hardly believe her ears. "Aunt's room?"

"My mother was an orphan who was abandoned on the roadside and adopted by a kind-hearted farmer. Although the farmer was simple and kind, he lived in poverty and had nothing. My mother and her sisters had to sleep on a small bed since she was a child. Later, my mother and father met and fell in love in humble circumstances. My father was talented, diligent and studious. He finally stood out in an imperial examination and won the first place. In order to commend him, the emperor awarded him this house.

One day, the father learned about the long-forgotten wish of the mother - to have her own room. He knew that this wish was not only for the mother to have a private space, but also a comfort for her past difficult years. So the father decided to fulfill this wish for his mother himself.

He carefully selected the most secluded and elegant courtyard in the house, and designed and decorated it with his mother. From the selection of materials to the layout, from the furniture to the furnishings, everything reflected his cherishment and expectation for this room. And the key to open the room was personally handed to my mother by my father. If she didn't want to, no one could step into this room.

This room became a haven for my mother’s soul. She would often sit in that room. Sometimes she would bring my father and me into the room to listen to her playing the zither. It’s strange to say that although my mother grew up in a farming family, she was very good at playing the zither, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she was especially proficient in the zither. ”

Xu Congyi was stunned by Shen Xiao's words. She didn't expect there was such a thing. Since Master Tang restored Shen Xiao's mother's room in this secret room, doesn't that mean...

After Shen Xiao finished speaking, he walked inside. Xu Congyi was in mixed feelings and couldn't say anything at this moment. The two walked to the table where the guqin was placed and saw a name clearly engraved on the guqin.

Xu Congyi looked at Shen Xiao, and Shen Xiao let out a long breath and nodded.

The name engraved on the zither was clearly my mother’s name – Qingru. This was my mother’s favorite zither and it was a birthday gift my father bought for her.

Shen Xiao perked up and carefully observed the secret room. All the things that were originally burned appeared here.

"Tang Yang, you old thief!" After confirming that all these things were originally from his mother's room, Shen Xiao pounded the stone wall beside him fiercely. Even if he was about to collapse, he still couldn't bear to destroy these things. These things originally belonged to his mother, but were hidden in his secret room by the old thief Tang Yang. This insult made Shen Xiao feel like his heart was being cut by a knife.

"These... these are my aunt's things! How can he be so shameless and cruel! Let's take all my aunt's things back!" Xu Congyi was also very angry. She wanted to send the things into the space through her thoughts.

"Sister Xu!" Shen Xiao stopped Xu Congyi's action, "Not for now. There are too many gold, silver and jewelry. If you want to take them, you won't be noticed. But not here. We don't want to arouse the old man's suspicion for now."

Xu Cong nodded, and indeed the best way was to keep things as they were.

It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. Shen Xiao secretly made up his mind that one day, he would pay blood for blood, clear his father's name, and take back his mother's things openly.
