Time was running out, so Qiao Xi quickly returned to the bushes where Xu Yi was hiding, then turned on the navigation, trying to find a safer hiding place.

But although Xu Yi looked thin, he was still too heavy for her.

It took her a lot of effort to move Xu Yi two or three meters, but he was still several hundred meters away from the safe cave indicated by the system.

Damn, if only she had a Qiankun bag like the one described in the book. No matter how heavy the things are, she can put them in it, hold them in her hand, and take them wherever she wants.

Qiankun bag? Uh——

Qiao Xi's breathing hitched for a moment, and then she almost jumped up with joy, banging her head repeatedly with her hands in excitement.

Yes, the space can accommodate land, it can accommodate a stream, but it cannot accommodate a person.

Why hadn't she thought of it before?

So she hugged Xu Yi, closed her eyes and silently said "enter the space". When she opened her eyes again, they were already in the space.

After carefully placing Xu Yi on the ground, Qiao Xi wanted to wait inside until it was safe before going out.

But there is no food in this space, and what if Xu Yi wakes up?

Most importantly, she guessed that Xu Yi's purpose in coming here was to find evidence of the Nie family's crimes, and then overthrow the Nie family's power in Lingxiao City in one fell swoop, so that the Nie family could no longer dominate Lingxiao City.

If they miss this opportunity to get hold of the Nie family's handle now, it will be too late to regret when the Nie family destroys all the evidence.

Thinking of this, Qiao Xi looked at Xu Yi deeply, picked up the dagger in her hand again, and hit Xu Yi hard on the back of his neck.

This way, she wouldn't have to worry about Xu Yi suddenly waking up and discovering the secret of her space, and she could go out and do things with peace of mind.

Qiao Xi left the space in a flash, carrying the dagger and the things she had found on the man in the green shirt.

She quickly found a safer upwind spot and pulled out something from her bosom. It was a tinderbox. She removed the lid, blew it, and then ignited the dry leaves on the ground.

She stood by and watched the flame grow from a small flame to the size of a fist, and then to a cluster. Then she watched it spread rapidly from the downwind side and grow stronger under the wind. Until she, who was standing upwind, felt uncomfortable being burned by the flames, she took a few steps back and hid behind a big tree.

"It's on fire! It's on fire, put it out quickly——"

"Hurry, hurry, you guys are responsible for putting out the fire, you guys are responsible for loading the stuff into the truck, just carry as much as you can."

thing?

Thinking that she still hadn't figured out what kind of mine the Nie family was secretly mining, Qiao Xi couldn't help but come out from behind the tree, go around to other places that hadn't been ignited, and approach the Nie family's camp with extreme caution.

"Quickly retreat, don't put out the fire, and help move things."

Qi Chunjiang found that the fire could no longer be contained, so he immediately made a decision to give up fighting the fire and move the valuables from the camp.

So the firefighters followed his instructions, lined up outside the tent, and carried the backpacks handed out from the tent.

Qiao Xi leaned her head over to see what was in the backpack, but it was too far away and the backpack was covered with a layer of leaves, so she couldn't see anything.

However, the backpacks didn't look big, but the strong men who carried them had their backs bent and looked very tired. The things inside must be very heavy.

Josie thought it would be great if one of them fell and spilled the contents of the backpack.

Perhaps God heard her prayers again. Just as she had this thought, she saw a strong man carrying a basket on his back tripped by something, and then he couldn't control the strength and fell forward.

The backpack was thrown out by him in an instant.

I saw the leaves in the basket being thrown out, and then the things covered by the leaves were also thrown out.

A flash of light suddenly appeared before Qiao Xi's eyes. Before she could see what was emitting the dazzling light, she heard someone screaming in the Nie family camp.

"Silver, so much silver, so much silver—"

"Silver, where is the silver?"

……

The Nie family camp, which had just been relatively orderly, was instantly drowned out by the shouting of the crowd and fell into chaos.

Qiao Xi watched as the workers scrambled for the silver on the ground like crazy, while the Nie family guards were waving whips.

But those people only cared about money and didn't care about the Nie family at all.

Some of them were hurt by the beatings and directly grabbed the whips of the Nie family and began to resist.

Some smart ones just picked up the other baskets and poured out the silver. The white silver was all over the ground. Seeing this, those people started a new round of looting.

Qiao Xi looked at the silver on the ground in shock. It was all taken away in the blink of an eye.

She finally knew the Nie family's secret.

No wonder in just a few years, the Nie family's wealth was equivalent to the entire Lingxiao City's income for several years.

Not to mention Lingxiao City, if this silver mine continues to be mined for a few more years or even more than ten years, the Nie family's assets will be equivalent to the treasury of Tianle Kingdom.

At that time, not to mention Lingxiao City, even the entire Tianle Kingdom, their Nie family could almost walk sideways.

Thinking of this, and thinking of Nie Guizhou's arrogance that day, Qiao Xi pursed her lips silently, her eyes unfathomable, and her determination to destroy the Nie family became even more determined.

"Ah—someone's been murdered! The Nie family has murdered someone!"

Suddenly a scream brought Qiao Xi back to her senses.

She hurriedly looked towards the Nie family camp, only to see that the people who had gathered together just now were now dispersing in all directions like a tide.

The middle of the Nie family camp was suddenly empty, making it easy for Qiao Xi to see what was happening there.

A man stood in the middle, holding a big knife.

The sunlight shines on the knife, reflecting a dazzling light, and in this hot summer day, it actually reveals a cold chill.

The green grass turned dark red.

On the dark red grass, a man was lying there, motionless.

Just when everyone was panicking because of seeing the murder, Qi Chunjiang stood up, his voice was extremely cold and his eyes swept over everyone with an icy look.

He pointed at the corpse on the ground and said slowly: "This is the fate of robbing the Nie family's silver. You should know that you can take some silver, but taking some silver will cost you your life. Before I lose my temper, if you still want to live, return the silver obediently, otherwise-"

Qi Chunjiang knew that everyone was not stupid, and the warning was just a brief one.

After hearing what he said, everyone looked at each other in panic, not knowing what to do.

A few people were coaxed by Qi Chunjiang's words. They took a few steps forward, looked at the silver in their hands, and began to hesitate.

Qiao Xi stood on a high place and had a panoramic view of everything in the Nie family camp.

She had to admit that the housekeeper of the Nie Mansion had some skills.

However, he seemed to have overlooked one point.

Qiao Xi raised her eyebrows and looked around the camp.
