Lian Xiaomin left Mr. Qian's house, walked a few hundred meters away, and pushed the cart into an empty alley.

He put the scooter into the space and took out his own bicycle.

She still had two things to do. One was to go to Shen Hanchao's parents' house and give them a letter.

Then, they rushed to the small warehouse of the abandoned winery outside Dongzhimen to store a batch of supplies for Qian Ye and his men.

Just as I was about to get on the bike and leave the alley, I suddenly heard a few low voices talking from inside the courtyard wall.

It was late at night and everyone was asleep. My ears were more sensitive than those of ordinary people, so I heard it immediately.

"Xu Qiang, we have finally driven away that old lady Zheng and her family. Are you sure there is a treasure under this yard? Don't waste your time. My brother and I will get nothing!"

"Hey, Brother Dazhu, just believe me, there must be one! If not, I, Xu Qiang, will tear the head off and give it to you."

There was no light in the yard, it was pitch black. Three men were groping in the dark to open the door. Soon, the lock on the door was opened with a key.

Lian Xiaomin was moved. What was he doing? A thief? Not likely.

Can a thief still hold the key? Besides, if the residents in this courtyard shout, everyone nearby will come over.

What do you mean by driving away a family... Is there a treasure underground?

She had a lot of questions in her mind, and she couldn't help but stop pushing the bicycle, pedaled, put it in place, and released her mental power to see what was going on inside.

First check if there is anything special buried under this yard.

It’s no big deal to take a look, it really is there!

There was a large wooden box buried under the west wall.

Wow~ There was half a box filled with about a hundred small gold ingots, each of which was probably worth five taels in the old days.

This half box of small gold ingots must weigh at least 10 kilograms.

In the other half of the box, there was a pair of blue and white porcelain vases, thickly wrapped in dark cotton cloth.

On top of the porcelain vase were two pairs of jade bracelets wrapped in silk handkerchiefs.

There is also a huge jade necklace, which is placed in a box and looks like the kind that came out of the Qing Palace.

Judging from the size of the jadeite, it is too big. Such a big string must be very heavy to hang around the neck.

This matter aroused Lian Xiaomin's curiosity. If it was a decent family hiding things in their own yard, she would definitely not touch them casually.

However, it was really unbearable to watch these three people, who sounded like criminals, about to start digging for treasure.

She decided to take care of this matter and find out what these people were doing.

You don't have to do anything else, just eavesdrop on the "gossip behind the scenes" and you will be able to hear most of the reasons.

The one called Xu Qiang was about twenty-five or twenty-six years old, with premature graying of hair. He was not short in stature, but had a hunchbacked appearance.

He crouched down, groped in the house to find a shovel, and asked "Dazhu" and his younger brother "Erzhu" to dig.

Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that this man had a problem with one of his legs and was probably unable to do the work, so he called in two helpers.

Erzhu is short, stout, and about the same age as Xu Qiang. He took the shovel and whispered in front of his older brother.

"We two brothers have been doing all the work. We have been busy for these days, but we don't know if there is really any treasure."

"...Brother, I see that old woman was beaten up. She couldn't have died on the way, right? The older of the two children saw my face!"

Dazhu dug out a small shovel from the dark room, which he usually used to scoop coal. He weighed it and whispered to his brother.

"Who told you to be so harsh? Just scare her and chase her and her two children out of the city and send them back to their hometown thirty miles away. Why don't you take it easy?"

Erzhu scratched his head and said in a silly voice, "If they die, they die. It would be best if the two little guys died on the road as well. That way, there won't be any troubles later."

When Xu Qiang heard this, he felt a little scared.

"I say, Dazhu and Erzhu, let's just pray for wealth, don't do anything life-threatening! I have no choice but to come up with this dirty trick!"

"…I can only say that his son and his wife borrowed money from me before they died, and forced this old woman to mortgage the house to me. There is nothing we can do about it. Let's not make it a big deal."

Dazhu snorted coldly: "Xu Qiang, how did the couple die? Don't say it has nothing to do with you. You have committed all the crimes of robbery and murder. Why are you pretending to be with us?"

In the darkness, Xu Qiang's face turned very ugly, and a sick and vicious look appeared on his face.

Lian Xiaomin thought to herself, this is a ruthless person. Even though he is disabled, he is like a poisonous snake and can kill you with just one bite.

Seeing that he remained silent and unable to refute, Dazhu said nothing more. He took a shovel and walked to the yard, starting to dig everywhere, looking for treasure.

He called his brothers and went to the jujube tree first. Generally, the first thing that comes to mind is whether they can bury the body under the tree.

Lian Xiaomin knew it was not there, but buried underground in the corner.

Moreover, it was dug very deep, at least two meters, so it is not easy for ordinary people to dig it out.

To be honest, based on her understanding, considering the current housing shortage in Beijing, this yard is quite good.

Although I don’t know what the original owner did for a living, it seems like he wasn’t doing too badly.

Alas, I don’t know how the news of the treasure buried in the house spread out, attracting wolves and tigers.

She wasn't that curious about the details and ins and outs of these things; she just wanted to know the general idea.

I guess Xu Qiang got the information and found a way to murder "the couple".

An old lady was left with two children. The widow and orphan had their house taken away, and they were beaten under threats and intimidation, and sent back to their hometown in the countryside.

Oh no, could the old lady really die on the road? We have to hurry.

Lian Xiaomin still looked like Lin Zi at this time, so she didn't need to cover herself up with a mask. She just turned over and jumped into the courtyard wall. I guess the three men didn't dare to shout for help.

She quickly rushed behind the three people who were bending over and digging the ground under a big tree, and kicked Dazhu in the head, knocking him unconscious first.

Then he swung his fist and hit Erzhu on the chin, but he was careful not to hit him so that he would be stunned first so that he could question him later.

Finally, he punched Xu Qiang as well, but unexpectedly his punch was a little too heavy. Xu Qiang's frail body fell to the ground, his eyes rolled back.

It's too useless. It's really not as strong as Erzhu.

Lian Xiaomin took all three people into the space and placed them directly in a small warehouse.

He also slipped into the space, found ropes and cloth strips, tied up the three people tightly, and tied cloth strips across their eyes so that they could not see anything and did not even know where they were.

The one who was kicked the hardest was Dazhu. He is now unconscious and must have suffered a severe concussion.
