After I went through the book, I criticized the villain but he insisted on pampering me

The man whispered again, "Have you found where the woman lives?"

The maid nodded: "I have looked for it, but there is nothing."

The man said angrily, "Where did Li Muzi put the things?"

Maid: "If there is no other option, let's give Li Muzi to..." She made a gesture of wiping her neck.

The man immediately said, "No, it's hard to explain to the big boss. The big boss still has some brotherly feelings for the second in command. If we kill Li Muzi like this, the big boss will definitely not let us go. It's more important to find the thing first."

The maid nodded.

Su Xueer was in the dark, not daring to breathe.

Suddenly, a cat ran by, alerting the two men.

"Who?" the man shouted.

Su Xueer quickly turned around and left, hiding in a utility room.

"It might be a cat, don't make a fuss." said the maid.

The two spoke a few more words and then left in a hurry.

Su Xueer came out of the utility room with her heart beating wildly.

She knew her situation was becoming increasingly dangerous, but she had no intention of backing down.

Three more days passed.

Su Xueer discovered that Li Batian of Lihua Village and several elders of the village were discussing something in a secret room.

She secretly eavesdropped outside the door.

"The situation is tense recently, so those things need to be moved as soon as possible." Li Batian said.

"But where to move to?" someone asked.

"Don't worry about it for now, prepare the carriages and horses, and be ready to act at any time." Li Batian ordered.

Su Xueer knew in her heart that what they were talking about must be those stones.

Just then, Amelia Su accidentally touched a branch at the door, making a noise.

"Who's outside?" Li Batian shouted loudly.

Su Xueer turned and ran, and Li Batian roared from behind: "Chase him!"

She ran desperately in the village to avoid being chased.

Just when she felt desperate, Li Muzi appeared.

"Come with me." Li Muzi pulled Su Xueer and hid in a hidden cellar.

The pursuers searched outside, but didn't find them, so they left.

In the cellar, Su Xueer, panting, told Li Muzi about her discovery.

Li Muzi frowned, "Impossible. In the early days, our Lihua Village relied on robbing and pillaging for a living, but by the time of our fathers' generation, they had already retired. Everyone in the village makes a living through legitimate occupations in various industries and would never do anything illegal."

Su Xueer said: "Brother Li, I know you definitely won't, but what about your eldest brother? What about the boss? Do you really know and understand what he does every day?"

Li Muzi nodded: "Well, of course I know, my eldest brother is doing some silk business now, and it is definitely not illegal."

Su Xueer said anxiously: "Is it really just silk? Then tell me, what important things do you have that your eldest brother wants but can't get?"

Li Muzi thought for a moment and said, "Are you talking about this?"

He took something from his neck, a key-shaped pendant carved from a wolf bone.

Su Xueer asked: "What is this?"

"This is a key carved from the wolf's tusk that my father killed when he was young. This key is used to open the box in my eldest brother's hand. The box is made of black iron, and there is no other way to open it except with this key."

Su Xueer: "What's in the box?"
