Don't panic if your home is confiscated or you are exiled, just empty the warehouse and stock u

The military camp was engulfed in flames and the guards stationed there were nowhere to be seen. Jiang Nianwei went straight into the mine.

On the surface, this mine was marked as a place for mining iron ore, but as Jiang Nianwei went deeper and deeper, she gradually discovered something strange.

This is obviously a gold mine, no wonder it is hidden so secretively. With so much gold, anyone would be jealous.

Large chunks of gold are embedded in the damp walls. It can be seen that this was once the location of a riverbed, where a gold mine was formed over the years.

Jiang Nianwei placed her hand on the gold and turned the walnut with one hand, and the gold disappeared out of thin air.

Jiang Nianwei put all the gold mines into the walnut space and walked out as if nothing had happened.

The guards who rushed over did not notice anything unusual about her. After all, there was no place on her body that could hide anything, and gold mines need tools to be dug out.

"What are you doing standing here like an idiot? Can't you see the barracks is on fire? Go and help put out the fire!" The leading guard frowned and shouted sternly.

Jiang Nianwei lowered her head, hiding her face, and said in a deep voice: "Yes, I'll go right away!"

Just as she was about to turn around and blend into the night, the leading guard suddenly spoke with a hint of confusion in his voice: "Wait, why do I feel like I've never seen you before?"

Jiang Nianwei's heart tightened, but she remained calm. She was about to come up with a suitable answer when she heard another guard suddenly shout, "Something's wrong! There seems to be something strange here!"

This sudden shout broke the original tense atmosphere and instantly diverted the attention of the leading guard.

Jiang Nianwei took the opportunity to take a deep breath, suppressed the panic in her heart, and quietly left everyone's sight.

She turned and ran towards the military camp, but halfway there she suddenly stopped.

After looking around and confirming that there was no one around, she decisively changed direction and walked slowly towards the port.

However, at this moment, a slight noise suddenly came from the jungle nearby, like a small animal running through the grass. Although it was light, it was enough to arouse her vigilance.

Jiang Nianwei quickly turned her head and stared at the dense forest.

She held a sharp dagger in her hand, ready to deal with any possible danger at any time.

Just then, a woman suddenly jumped out of the jungle.

Jiang Nianwei's eyesight was still sharp at night. She recognized at a glance that the woman was the mute girl who had helped her before, and there were more than a dozen women following her.

Jiang Nianwei breathed a sigh of relief. "Follow me. Do you see the boat ahead? We'll take that boat back."

When a woman heard this, an unconcealable worry suddenly appeared on her face. She hesitated and spoke with a bit of confusion in her voice: "But... where can we go?"

The other woman took a deep breath, her eyes gleaming with determination, and she responded firmly: "It doesn't matter where we go, as long as we can leave this suffocating place."

"That's right, I don't want to stay here anymore." The women around echoed.

"Those who are willing to leave, please follow me. If you still want to stay, you can go back now." After saying that, she turned and walked towards the cargo ship. Seeing this, the women followed her.

They know that this may be their only chance to change their fate.

The night was as dark as ink. The cargo ship was quietly docked at the shore, and a guard was patrolling the deck.

There were guards on the cargo ship docked at the shore, but suddenly faint crying sounds were heard outside the ship.

Suddenly, a faint cry broke the silence of the night, carrying a hint of sorrow and sadness.

The guard frowned slightly, and listened attentively. Although he was a little confused, he didn't care too much.

However, the crying did not dissipate, but became clearer and louder, disturbing him. Thinking of the rumors about the female ghost at the seaside, he felt a chill in his heart.

When he turned around, he unexpectedly caught sight of a limping woman under the boat, "Sir, save me."

The guard's nervousness dissipated at this moment. She was just a pretty girl. He calmed down and asked curiously, "Girl, why are you wandering under the boat in the middle of the night?"

"I accidentally sprained my foot. I am staggering and can hardly walk on my own."

The guard's heart moved slightly, and he looked around. Seeing that there was no one else around, he couldn't help but have a strange thought in his mind. In this quiet night, there was a delicate young lady...

As soon as he stepped off the boat, Jiang Nianwei, who was hiding in the shadows nearby, hit him on the back of the head with a stick and ordered him neatly, "Hurry up and get on the boat!"

The women boarded the ship one after another, and Jiang Nianwei drove the small boat next to the cargo ship directly, and sent them to Yazhou according to the route she remembered.

Before leaving, Jiang Nianwei also gave them some silver and supplies found on the ship, "You should escape quickly. It's hard to live in hiding, but it's better than staying in that place."

Everything they experienced that night seemed like a dream. They never dared to hope that one day they would be able to break free from that purgatory-like place and regain their freedom.

When I reacted, I found that the boat had gradually sailed away...

Everyone could only wave silently towards the small boat on the dark sea.

In the hearts of these women, Jiang Nianwei was like a fairy who suddenly descended to the earth and saved them from the dire suffering.

When Jiang Nianwei returned to Nanzhou Island, it was almost dawn. Old Qian and Sun Niu had already been taught a lesson by her, but the culprit, her cousin, had not yet been properly punished.

When Jiang Nianwei thought of the two chicks that had died in vain, a great idea came to her mind. The most urgent thing was to go back and report her safety to her family.

The Jiang family did not sleep all night, especially Jing Qiudie. Even though Jiang Nianwei had been comforted before she was taken away, she still couldn't sleep at night.

It was not until Jiang Nianwei's figure appeared in sight safely that the whole family finally felt relieved, and the uneasy mood disappeared in an instant.

Ah Bei stood quietly by, silently wiping the tears from the corners of his eyes. His heart was already filled with worry and anxiety. When Jiang Nianwei was taken away, he was digging a ditch in the distance. He did not know that Jiang Nianwei had been taken away until he came back. If Jiang Lanxu had not stopped him, he would have planned to fight to the death with that group of soldiers.

Ah Bei was still just a child after all. Jiang Nianwei touched his head and said, "Why are you crying? I'm back safe and sound."

Jiang Siyu said proudly: "I've already told you that Sister will definitely return safely without any injuries."

Jiang Lanxu looked at his sister's outfit, with blood staining the corners of her clothes. He couldn't help wondering what kind of hardships she had gone through. "What's with all this blood?"

"Don't worry, big brother. This is not my blood."

She killed Lao Qian, and Sun Niu probably died in the fire. She took off their badges and left them in the mine.

She had collected all the iron ore and gold from several mines. After not sleeping all night, she yawned and felt exhausted.

But in order to cover up what happened yesterday, she had to pretend nothing happened.

At the moment, she has not yet accumulated the strong strength to compete with the army. She can only lie dormant quietly, accumulate elite troops, and wait for the opportunity.

Besides, she quite likes staying on this island. Although it is a bit remote, there are many undeveloped places and many unknown resources.

Jiang Hao was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night. He was extremely excited when he thought about the humiliation that Jiang Nianwei was going to suffer.

Jiang Mian has already moved in with Qin Ziqian. When he thinks of this disappointing sister, he suddenly feels annoyed for no reason.

Just as he was about to get up, a chill suddenly ran down his spine.

He looked up and saw a black-haired female ghost hanging upside down on the eaves. Her face was pale and distorted. She opened her mouth and spoke in a shrill and terrifying voice: "Jiang Hao, I died so miserably, how can you sleep peacefully? Give me back my life!"

Jiang Hao's pupils suddenly contracted, causing his whole body to tremble violently, and finally he fell weakly on the cold, hard ground.

The sun was high in the sky, the sunlight was blinding; he was clearly in the human world, yet he felt as if he had encountered a ghost from the underworld.

"Where the hell are you from?"

The eerie voice sounded again, "Where I came from, can't you tell?"

The woman was wearing the same clothes that Jiang Nianwei wore when she left. Jiang Hao was confused and asked, "Could it be... Could it be that you are my cousin?"

Jiang Nianwei couldn't help but let out a contemptuous "bah" in her heart. This bastard actually dared to shamelessly call her cousin.

"Jiang Hao, you pushed me into the fire pit. Now that I have been tortured to death, you must pay with your life!"

Jiang Hao's body trembled violently, and a stream of liquid slid down between his legs uncontrollably, instantly soaking his trouser legs. The pungent smell filled the air.

His lips trembled, "No... I didn't do it, cousin. I just... I just wanted to send you to a better place to enjoy life. If you want to blame someone, you can only blame bad luck, not me. I... I really didn't want to hurt you."

"If you don't dare to admit it, I will tear your mouth apart, poke out your eyes, and drag you into the eighteenth level of hell."

Jiang Hao saw the long tongue getting closer and closer to him, and closed his eyes in panic, "It's me, it's me! I have bad intentions, I want you dead, at least for you, for the blood relationship between you and me, please spare my life and give me a chance to reform!"

"So how are you going to turn over a new leaf?"

"From now on, I will follow my uncle's lead and take good care of your other brothers and sisters! If I break this oath, I will be punished by heaven and struck by lightning. My life will be worse than death, and I will not be able to die in peace."

He pressed his forehead against the ground and kowtowed over and over again, each time as if he had used up all his strength, his voice full of despair and pleading.

It was not until he saw a pair of cloth shoes quietly appear in his sight that he looked up suddenly and found that Jiang Nianwei appeared in front of him unharmed.

"Cousin, I wrote down every word you said just now."

The figure that was hanging upside down in the air and was mistaken for a "female ghost" also jumped down lightly, revealing Abei's face covered with gouache.

Jiang Hao then realized that he had been deceived and showed his embarrassing side to Jiang Nianwei.

He felt annoyed, "You lied to me?"

She tilted her head slightly, her eyes glittering with cunning, "You hurt me, so what if I lied to you?"

Jiang Hao was a little confused. They...they didn't take you to Xizhou Island? Why...why?"

Jiang Nianwei said calmly, "For some reason, they didn't take me with them."

"I have a good relationship with those two soldiers. I'm telling you, if you mess with me, you'll have a hard time when they come back!"

Jiang Nianwei showed a sarcastic smile. Those two people must have already become wandering ghosts on the road to the underworld. She had killed them with her own hands.

Jiang Hao's words were like a joke to her. "Then I'll wait."

At the same time, in the military camp on Xizhou Island, the fire had just been put out and smoke was still lingering.

The strange cause and effect of this fire raises many doubts.

What was even more shocking was that the core areas of the military camp - the armory, medical storehouse and granary were all emptied, and the camp prostitutes also took advantage of the chaos to quietly escape.

They searched the entire Xizhou Island but found nothing.

Fan Dusi was extremely angry, his face turned blue, and he roared and ordered his men to investigate the matter thoroughly.

However, at this moment, frightening news came from the mine. Upon hearing the news, Fan Dusi's legs instantly lost strength and he could only stand firmly by tremblingly holding on to a chair.

"What did you say? All those gold mines are gone? Are you dazzled?"

How could all that gold disappear overnight without a trace? Could it have been caused by some powerful magic? Otherwise, how else could all this be explained?

"Master Fan, we also found two tokens in the mine. Please take a look!"

When Fan Dusi saw it, he realized that it was the token of a low-ranking officer in their military camp. How did it appear here?

He frowned, and an indescribable doubt surged in his heart, "Where are these two people now?"

"Reporting to the commander, the two are missing."

"I never thought that there was such a cunning thief hiding in this military camp, and his methods were so powerful! This is really beyond my expectation."

In fact, the bodies of the two had been burned beyond recognition in the fire last night and no one could identify them.

Fan Dusi was anxious and knew the urgency of the matter, so he could only write a letter and send it to the capital at an express speed of 800 miles.

He will inevitably be implicated in this matter. If he knows about it but does not report it, his fate will be a hundred times more tragic than being implicated.

Jiang Hao waited tremblingly for two days, but the two people he thought were his backers never showed up again. He asked again and again before an officer or soldier told him impatiently.

"I advise you not to ask about them. Something big happened on Xizhou Island, and those two were involved. You are so concerned about them, could it be that they are also related to that treasonous thing? If we report it, you will be in danger of your life."

Jiang Hao then knelt down tremblingly: "Sir, I really didn't have it. I dare not ask again."

The soldier glanced at him with disdain in his eyes. He said "Pah", then turned his head and rolled his eyes.

In his eyes, Jiang Hao was nothing more than an insignificant ant, not even worthy of being taken seriously by him.

Jiang Nianwei walked to Jiang Hao's side, with a hint of coldness in her voice: "Cousin, look, you look so much like those little chickens now. They can't control their own fate and can only be trampled on by more powerful people. Don't you think so?"

She returned these words to him exactly as they were, allowing him to experience for himself the words full of contempt and ridicule that he had once said to her.
