"Mom, we are back."

"Okay, just come back."

Chen Nan returned to the secret room and personally returned the child to Han.

Han, who hadn't seen her son for an hour, had her eyes swollen from crying. If Lin Hua hadn't been there to comfort her, she would have been so anxious that she would have gone crazy.

Seeing that she was holding the child tightly and had no mind to care about other things, Chen Nan simply stopped asking questions and made the decision on his own.

"Where's the key? Have you opened it and looked?"

"Not yet. Mother said she would wait until you come back."

"Let's go then."

The maids and old women stayed by Han's side to serve her, and the secret guards stayed on the farm just in case. Uncle Fu brought the seven or eight servants from the family and came in from another secret room, and were packing their luggage in a hurry.

"Mother, I'm going to take my eldest sister to count the money."

"Well, let's go."

Han didn't even raise her head, her eyes fixed on the child in her arms, unable to move away.

Chen Nan felt that she seemed a little sick.

I can't take care of so many things right now, I can only wait and see how things slowly ease in the future.

She followed Lin Hua inside and stopped in front of a heavy stone door.

Lin Hua inserted the key into the keyhole. Just as she was about to open the door, a strange thought flashed through Chen Nan's mind. She remembered that Su Weimin had said that all the secret rooms in the Su family were built by Mohist craftsmen hired by Su Chengnan's mother.

"and many more!"

"Huh?" Lin Hua paused, looking back in confusion, "What's wrong?"

"Be careful! Let me do it."

Chen Nan pulled Lin Hua behind her, her body pressed against the stone door. She reached out, turned the key lightly, and slowly opened the door.

"Shhhh-"

"Boom-"

After several hidden arrows flew past, a huge rock fell from the top.

Fortunately, the stone door opened slowly, and most of the arrows were blocked by the door. Only one arrow flew through the crack of the door, deflected against the wall, and then returned, landing at Chen Nan's feet.

"Did the old man tell you?" Lin Hua was scared.

Strangely enough, she couldn't see Su Weimin in the space! Even if Su Weimin deliberately spoke to her, she couldn't hear him. She could only see a cloud of white smoke floating around. It was a weird and funny painting style.

"I guessed it." Chen Nan leaned forward.

"Awesome, sis!"

After saying that, Lin Hua pulled Chen Nan over and glanced over to where Han was, then lowered his voice and asked, "Do you think she did it on purpose?"

Chen Nan lowered his eyes. "It's hard to say. Logically speaking, she wouldn't kill you too."

Lin Hua's expression was complicated, "I really can't trust anyone!"

"We need to accumulate strength now and be cautious."

"Ah."

Chen Nan opened the stone door completely.

The two of them took a look and were immediately surprised!

"Oh my God! Am I seeing this right?"

"You read that right!"

There were ten boxes of gold, half the size of a palm!

There are three boxes full of banknotes, at least three hundred thousand taels, which is much more than the one in the study!

In addition, there are some silver and antique jade.

It's really glittering and dazzling with jewels!!!

Even though the two of them had visited countless museums in modern times and had been influenced by TV dramas for more than 20 years, they were still fascinated when they actually saw this scene with their own eyes.

"The old man is really good at hiding things. These things are enough for us to live for several lifetimes."

"Tsk tsk, I never thought that I would become a wealthy woman one day!"

Lin Hua spoke as he went to touch the gold, his hands were full and he was reluctant to let go.

"It would be great if I could bring this back to the modern era. Having a male model every night wouldn't be a problem! Hahahaha, who knows, maybe I can turn into some capital and make a top-tier star."

Chen Nan laughed, "What's your misunderstanding about top stars? Do you think you can become famous just by spending money?!"

Lin Hua curled his lips, "Isn't it?"

Chen Nan collected the gold into the space while shaking his head, "Small success depends on praise, big success depends on luck. The most important thing is to endure hardship and do the right thing!"

Lin Hua followed suit and collected the gold into the space. In a few whooshes, all the gold was quickly moved out.

Suddenly Chen Nan held her hand down and said, "Don't take too much."

Lin Hua then reacted, uh... yes, the space cannot be exposed!

Then I have to carry all this money in my luggage, which is really difficult... It's so difficult to make a choice.

What a beautiful jade bottle, and this golden bowl, and the enamel and gold-inlaid glass cup. Hey, these are all used to store delicious food and wine. The photos and videos taken with them will surely amaze the entire Internet!

She let go hesitantly.

"what is this?"

Chen Nan stood on tiptoe and took out the long box. Inside was a sword with exquisite reliefs on the scabbard. The blade could cut through iron like mud.

"It's a good sword!" She held it in her hand. The weight was just right, not too light or too heavy, and it was quite easy to use.

"Then sister, you can use it for self-defense. I want this."

Lin Hua was not interested in swords. She was attracted by a ruby-studded dagger beside her. She would not charge into battle, so this kind of delicate and small weapon was more suitable for sneak attacks.

"Okay. Take it."

"Take whatever you like and I'll go over there first and come back to take care of them later."

"Wait! I'm with you."

Lin Hua threw the golden rice bowl in her hand into the box and made to leave. Chen Nan stopped and looked at her in confusion.

"I don't want to be alone. If there's any trap, I'll definitely die if you're not here!" She laughed heartily, completely timid. "Sister, even if I die, I'll die with you! Don't even think about abandoning me."

“…” Chen Nan was really impressed.

Back in the front room of the secret room, Han was holding the child and humming nursery rhymes, while Chunyu and the maid were packing things into boxes.

When Chen Nan saw the large and small bags on the ground, his brows were immediately twisted into a "川" shape.

"Mother, we must move quickly, so we'd better travel light."

“This is already extremely simple.”

Han looked up blankly, his tone a little exaggerated.

Chen Nan kept staring at her eyes, trying to tell from her expression whether she hadn't just warned him about the trap in the secret room. Unfortunately, her expression remained unchanged when she saw him.

Lin Hua didn't want Chen Nan and Han to have a direct conflict, so she walked up to Chunyu and opened each box one by one, then took out the extra things inside personally.

A box of bedding and a box of clothes, no more.

Han frowned, "Your brother must use the best things. He can't use anything he bought on the road. He must bring all of these with him."

Lin Hua turned his face up, "A baby can only have so many things. The carriage can't fit them all. What's more important, life or luggage?"

"How dare you, little girl, speak to your mother like that?!"

"Did I said wrong thing?"

Lin Hua glared, then she explained to Chunyu.

"Go find Uncle Fu and the others now and tell them that each person is only allowed to take one package! If anyone can't walk and leaves their luggage on the road, and the palace follows the trail... well, we'll all die together!"

Chunyu was stunned and regretted that he had not thought of this.

She looked at Han, then at her second daughter, and finally glanced quickly at the eldest daughter, Su Chengnan.

Seeing that the two young ladies were surprisingly unanimous in their opinions, she knew that her master, who was only devoted to the young master, had completely lost the right to speak. She quickly lowered her eyes and saluted.

"Yes, I'll do it right away..."

Just as she turned to leave, Han roared:

"Don't go!"

"If I say you have to bring it, you must bring it..."
