After making sure that there was no one there, Lin Yizhen used her internal energy and flew through the gate in a few seconds.
Entering the courtyard, Lin Yizhen began to search. She didn't know how big the courtyard was, how many rooms it had, or what was in each room.
If she checked every room by herself, she probably wouldn't be able to finish until dawn.
So she asked Xiaoyu to come out and help her check what was in these rooms. Once she was sure there were any treasures inside, she could go in and look for them herself.
Xiaoyu obediently used her spiritual sense to search the yard, then pointed to a room inside and said, "Master, go to the room on the far left of the backyard. That room is full of treasures.
Moreover, they are all antiques of historical significance to the Dragon Kingdom, and none of them have ever been buried in the ground.”
When Lin Yizhen heard that these were historically significant treasures, she was shocked. Who had gathered these treasures together? What was their purpose in doing so?
No matter who collected these things and what their purpose was in collecting these treasures, it’s better to go and take a look first.
Following Xiaoyu's instructions, Lin Yizhen came to the door of the room where the treasures were kept.
Lin Yizhen found that the door and window of this room were locked. She pulled several times but failed to open them. Just as she was about to use her inner strength to break the lock, she heard voices outside.
Lin Yizhen stopped what she was doing, tapped her toes twice, and flew to the roof on the other side.
Lin Yizhen had just taken refuge on the roof when she saw several figures sneaking in from outside.
These people were all wearing dark clothes and didn't even have a flashlight. What were they trying to do? Were they trying to steal the treasures inside?
So, Lin Yizhen poured most of her internal energy into her ears, intending to listen to what they were saying.
But I didn't expect these people to be so cautious. Except for the leader who kept urging them to hurry up, the others just speeded up their actions without saying a word.
Unable to hear those people talking, Lin Yizhen stopped listening and instead watched to see what they were trying to do.
Then, Lin Yizhen saw those people coming to the door of the room where she was standing.
After a while, someone opened the door with a key.
After the door opened, the people behind walked in in an orderly manner. Not long after, those who went in came out again carrying things.
They put the things they carried out onto the wooden flatbed cart and moved things out again and again. Lin Yizhen didn't know how many times they had moved things out.
They didn't stop moving until they had filled the two flatbed carts they brought, then locked the door of the room again and left.
Lin Yizhen wanted to see where they moved these things, so she followed them quietly.
These people were already pushing a cart and couldn't move fast, and they were worried about the treasures on the cart. In addition, the road was uneven and bumpy from time to time, so they dared not move faster.
Seeing that they were walking so slowly, Lin Yizhen was no longer anxious, but she didn't know where they planned to transport these things.
I slowly followed these people across the street to the outside of the city, and followed them to an abandoned house outside the town.
Judging from the size of this house, it should belong to a wealthy family, but it is now abandoned. Even the roof tiles and most of the bricks in the corners have been pried away. Who knows how long it has been since anyone has lived there?
But there were still one or two adobe rooms that were relatively intact, and the things they brought were placed in those relatively intact rooms.
Lin Yizhen hid in the dark and watched them busying around in the abandoned house until they left at dawn.
After they left, Lin Yizhen quietly climbed in from the roof. After entering, she found that all kinds of treasures were piled up in these rooms.
There are furniture made of fine wood; exquisite porcelain; well-packaged calligraphy and paintings and medical books; and even a small number of bronze utensils.
Each of them is a treasure, yet they are piled together in this abandoned house. What are they trying to do?
Lin Yizhen didn't know why these people piled up these treasures here, but she always felt that it was not a good thing. She wanted to put all these treasures into the space, but she was afraid of alerting the enemy.
After all, a cunning rabbit has three burrows! How could these be all the treasures?
This place should be a temporary transit point for them, as it is close to the dock. These people put these treasures here, and they must be planning to transport them away. They might be able to ship them out soon.
If someone is really reselling these treasures, we must find the mastermind behind it.
Otherwise, it will be useless no matter how many times you collect it. It will only allow the people behind the scenes to hide deeper, and the country will suffer greater losses.
After figuring it out, Lin Yizhen didn't put the things in the house away. Instead, she used her Qinggong to catch up with those people and follow them to see if she could find the person behind the scenes.
Lin Yizhen followed those people back to the town, and then saw them separate shortly after arriving in the town.
Seeing them separate, Lin Yizhen followed the person who was talking without saying a word.
Although it was not certain that this person was the leader and he didn't say much throughout the whole process, Lin Yizhen still felt that this person knew more.
Just after Lin Yizhen took a few steps, she was suddenly stopped by Xiaoyu in the space.
Xiaoyu said: "Master, there's something wrong with the short guy on the right side of the road. Although he hasn't spoken a word, he hasn't done any work along the way. And..."
Having said this, Xiaoyu paused.
"And what? Xiaoyu, why don't you say anything?" Lin Yizhen asked in confusion.
