The legitimate daughter of the marquis, Lin Ran, who had just experienced the loss of her mother and the only relative in her maternal family, was plotted against by her father and stepmother, but ...
Lin Ran slowly walked to the land, stomped his feet hard, and found that the land was indeed sinking.
She stopped stomping her feet, not knowing what was happening below. She didn't want to cause the ground to collapse and fall.
Lin Ran took out a shovel from the space and started digging.
Dig, dig, dig...
Until the shovel encountered an obstacle and could not dig anymore.
She was a little confused as she looked at the exposed stone slab.
So there really is treasure down there?
She seemed to have only dug half a meter deep, and it came out already?
Lin Ran dug a little further to the side to expand the hole. When she had dug almost enough, she put the stone slab directly into the space.
There was oil paper wrapped under the stone slab. Once the oil paper was pulled away, the rosewood box inside was immediately revealed.
She opened it casually and saw that it was full of small yellow croakers.
Lin Ran's eyes lit up, not because of excitement, but because the small yellow croaker was lighter in weight and seemed more suitable to take home than the gold ingots he had prepared.
Thinking of this, she quickly took out the small box she had prepared earlier and replaced all the gold ingots in it with small yellow croakers.
…
Because Lin Ran's strength was limited, the hole he dug was only as big as a rosewood box.
She didn't know how big the space underneath was, and she didn't plan to dig any further. She simply put all the rosewood boxes she could find into the space without even looking at what was inside.
She didn't find a ladder to go down until the boxes below were out of reach.
Lin Ran collected nearly sixty or seventy rosewood boxes in one breath and finally emptied the secret room.
Only then did he have time to look around the secret room.
The entire secret room was wrapped with oil paper to prevent moisture, and even lime powder was added. It was obvious that they had been prepared in advance, but even so, they could not escape the disaster.
Seeing this, Lin Ran couldn't help but sigh inwardly, forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore.
She turned around again to make sure there was nothing else inside and prepared to climb up.
But seeing the empty secret room, if someone discovered it, they would definitely guess that there was something inside, especially since Lin Meng had been staring at it.
So she climbed up, put away the ladder first, and then carried stones and soil from the space and poured them in.
After the entire secret room was completely filled, she stomped the soil on the surface tightly and spread some weeds on it.
After making sure there were no problems, I left with peace of mind.
She glanced at the sun. It was already noon. Shen Wenfang and the others should have gotten home from work. She had to go back quickly, otherwise her parents would definitely be worried.
As soon as Lin Ran reached the entrance of the village, she saw Lin Meng standing there.
Haven't you given up yet?
Lin Ran didn't feel guilty at all about taking the treasure.
Because from Lin Meng's words, we can know that this treasure was originally found by himself or the original owner.
Since she still wanted to steal the treasure even though she knew this, what would it matter if I took it in advance?
Let her keep staring if she wants. Anyway, the treasures have already entered her own space, and she won’t be able to find them even if she wants to.
Speaking of space, Lin Ran suddenly thought of something. Since Lin Meng knew a lot about her, did she know that she had a space?
Thinking of this, Lin Ran's face turned pale. As soon as she thought of this possibility, she wanted to silence Lin Meng immediately.
But she soon calmed down.
It shouldn't be possible!
If Lin Meng knew such a big secret of mine, he would have found a way to threaten me and get benefits from it.
Of course, it is also possible that she is patient and wants to gain greater benefits from this.
If that’s the case, let’s give it a try and find out.
Although Lin Ran had a lot on his mind, he remained expressionless. He walked up to Lin Meng and greeted her as usual.
But when Lin Meng saw Lin Ran coming back at this time, he couldn't help but feel suspicious:
"Ranran, why did you come back just now? Uncle and the others were so worried that they were about to go to the mountain to look for you. It was only because I came to check on you that they stopped them."
When Lin Ran heard this, he didn't bother to test Lin Meng and just wanted to go home quickly.
"Then I'll trouble you, cousin. I'll go back first."
But how could Lin Meng let her go? She quickly grabbed Lin Ran's vegetable basket.
"Ranran, don't worry. I've already helped you appease your uncle and the others. You haven't told me what happened to you in the mountains. Why did you come back only now?"
Lin Ran tugged at the basket, but couldn't move it at all. It was easy to imagine how much effort Lin Meng had put in. She said impatiently:
"My cousin misunderstood. It's mainly because mushrooms are hard to find today. I forgot the time and it's only now. I have to go back and won't tell my cousin anymore."
Seeing this, Lin Meng was extremely anxious. She didn't believe Lin Ran's lies. It was just a mushroom, how difficult could it be? Why did she have to find it now?
There must be something wrong. Maybe she found the treasure during the time I was away.
When Lin Meng thought of this possibility, her eyes turned red and she stared at the basket that Lin Ran refused to let go.
Maybe there are gold, silver and jewelry hidden under the wild vegetables.
Seeing Lin Ran about to leave with the basket, and walking in such a hurry, Lin Meng became even more certain that there was something fishy going on.
She grabbed Lin Ran's basket directly. Lin Ran didn't react at all and subconsciously wanted to protect the basket. As the two pulled each other, the mushrooms and wild vegetables in the basket rolled to the ground.
Lin Meng was stunned when he saw that there was nothing in the basket except mushrooms and wild vegetables, not to mention gold, silver and jewelry.
How could there not be?
What's worse is that at this moment, a cold shout suddenly came.
"What are you doing, Meng girl!"
It turned out that while the two were arguing, Shen Wenfang was still worried about Lin Ran, so she went out with Lin Weiguo and Lin Laosan to look for someone. As a result, they saw this scene as soon as they arrived at the village entrance.
