In ancient times, I just wanted to be a salted fish

Chapter 83: Gold-attracting Physique

It’s a perfect time to visit people’s homes on a dark and windy night!

Chen Ruotong once again invited Qiao Zien to explore the Wan residence with her, "Zien, I always have a hunch that the wealthy Wan and the regent are colluding to do something bad.

If they overthrow the imperial court, we will not have a peaceful life. Do you still want to take the imperial examination and become an official? I still want to do business and make money in peace? When the society is in turmoil, the people will not have a good life. Our good days will also be over. I don’t want to have so much wealth, but not enjoy it, and then live a life of displacement and fear. What do you think? "

Qiao Zien smiled and said, "Does Gu Chuan really want to find evidence this time?"

Chen Ruotong was a little embarrassed. "Last time, we didn't find anything! Well, the main goal was to loot some gold and silver! This time is different. We must find evidence of the crime this time."

"If you're only looking for evidence from letters, I can go alone. It's too dangerous, so you'd better not go."

"How can that be? I'm going only because it's dangerous. At the critical moment, I can take you into the space where no one can see you. Besides, I'm worried about you going alone. Instead of worrying about you at home, I might as well go with you and give it a try!

We worked well together last time, and it will be even better this time!" Chen Ruotong promised.

"Then let's get ready and take action right away!" As he said that, Qiao Zien packed up the backpack that Chen Ruotong gave him and changed into his night clothes.

Chen Ruotong also entered the space, changed into night clothes, and took her equipment.

The two of them came to Wan Baocai's study room and hid behind the rockery. They did not see the four guards, so they were very confused and took out night vision binoculars to observe the situation. They saw that the four guards were lying on the ground and seemed to be asleep.

Qiao Zien leaned over Chen Ruotong's ear and whispered, "These four people are not asleep. They are drugged. The door of the study has been pried open. There should be someone inside. Let's wait. Maybe the people here have the same purpose as us."

Chen Ruotong also replied in a whisper: "So, we are friends, not enemies?"

Qiao Zien shook her head and said, "Not necessarily, hush!"

The two of them waited motionlessly for five minutes with the night vision binoculars in their hands, and then saw the study door gently pushed open. A man in black came out from inside, quickly locked the door, then looked around and saw that there was no one around and it was safe, and then flew to Wan Baocai's room.

The two of them followed. The man was very alert and looked back several times, allowing Chen Ruotong to enter the space and hide.

The man in black used the same method to mesmerize the two guards guarding the door, and then blew medicine into Wan Baocai's bedroom.

Chen Ruotong and Qiao Zien both used night vision binoculars to zoom in on the man in black and observe him carefully. However, due to his mask, they could only see a pair of beautiful eyes and could not tell what the man looked like.

Ten minutes later, the man in black came out of the bedroom, closed the door, jumped onto a tree, used the tree to jump onto the wall, and left Wan's house.

Qiao Zien wanted to protect Chen Ruotong and leave Wan's house together. So she didn't chase the man in black, not knowing whether he was a friend or an enemy. In this way, the man in black had already alerted the enemy, and the rich man Wan would soon know about the loss of property in his house.

Then, the Wanzhai house will be heavily guarded and impossible to enter.

So Chen Ruotong said, "Zi En, the servants of the Wan family have all been knocked unconscious, so it would be convenient for us to go to the second pavilion by the lake to have a look. Maybe there is treasure there?"

Qiao Zien had no choice but to go to the second pavilion with Chen Ruotong. Chen Ruotong knew how to move the stone bench, so she and Qiao Zien worked together to move it left and right. Snap! A big hole appeared on the table.

Chen Ruotong couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise: "What the hell! Another secret room, looks like there's treasure again!"

They entered the secret passage as they did last time. The layout of this secret room was roughly the same as the previous one, and the floor was also paved with tiles.

According to the experience from last time, there should be a mechanism for placing hidden weapons here. Chen Ruotong took out three footballs from the space.

Qiao Zien threw a football at the wall, and saw hidden arrows coming out of the wall, shooting at the opposite wall like rain. If people walked on this road, they would definitely be shot into a hedgehog.

Qiao Zien threw the second ball to the top of the hole, and the ball bounced far away from the top of the hole. A rain of darts flew out from the top of the hole. Chen Ruotong was so frightened that she trembled all over and dared not move forward anymore.

It seems that this dark room is much more complicated than the previous one, and it is full of traps!

After they had probably shot all the hidden arrows, the two men tentatively moved forward with their night vision binoculars.

Fortunately, after passing this section of the road, there will be no more hidden arrows ahead.

After walking for half an hour, we arrived at an open space. It was very spacious, but there was nothing there.

It is impossible for such a secret room to be empty, so the two of them looked to the left and right. Chen Ruotong saw a round button on the wall and pressed it. A door opened, revealing golden and silver treasures.

This was what Chen Ruotong had expected, so she was not very surprised. With a wave of her hand, all the gold and silver in the dark room were put into the space, not even a piece of gold was left!

Qiao Zien also found a secret room filled with weapons. They were both shocked. There must be tens of thousands of weapons. They all looked new. It seemed that the wealthy Wan and the regent were colluding to rebel. Moreover, it was going to happen soon. They should rebel after finding the treasure.

Chen Ruotong immediately thought that the treasure Hong Xianzhi was looking for was fake. So, would it be true that Zhen Yu was going to find the treasure?

Why is there so much gold and silver here? Is the treasure hidden here? Is this the treasure that the three forces are fighting for? Did she get it by accident? Wow! What a gold-attracting physique! It's unparalleled!

There is no use for her to collect these weapons, so wouldn't it be better to keep them here as evidence for future rebellion by the wealthy Wan and the regent?

So Chen Ruotong said, "It's useless for us to take the weapons. We should report to Prefect Zhang and ask him to send troops to seize these weapons. Let's go quickly. I don't know if the cave entrance has been sealed automatically."

Qiao Zien said: "Wait, maybe there is a secret passage leading out of the city, let's look for it!"

Qiao Zien finally found a stone on the ground which was the button. He stepped on the stone and a stone door opened.

Just like the previous secret passage, they walked for nearly two hours and came to the foot of a mountain. Qiao Zien used the master key to unlock the iron gate, and just like that, they left the secret passage.

What is this place? They didn't know. It was pitch black and they couldn't get out of the mountain. So Chen Ruotong decided to take Qiao Zien into the space and wait until dawn to find the way back to the city.

It was another thrilling adventure, but the rewards were great.

Chen Ruotong looked at the huge pile of gold and silver treasures in the auto show hall, and was so happy that she couldn't sleep. She had almost used up all the wooden boxes in the warehouse of the store last time. Therefore, these treasures could not be packed in boxes, but could only be piled in the auto show hall. When she has nothing to do, she can come here to enjoy the view, and it will be happy to look at it, right?
