That night, there was not a single moon in the sky, and the world was pitch black. The wind was a bit strong.
Qiao Lian'er had a lot to do today. After picking up the stones and putting them into her space, it was already dark. She then took a nap in the time difference space and was about to head to the Great Swamp Kingdom.
She had already visited most of the jade gambling families in the prefecture, but she discovered the wonderful use of time difference. She could spend half a day in the Great Swamp, which was best done at home with her family.
“There’s movement.” Pei Shijiu put down the cup in his hand, turned his head slightly to the window, and his eyes darkened.
"Someone has sneaked in and is in the warehouse area."
Qiao Lian'er said, "Uncle Yin is suspicious, so it must be him who sent people again. Fortunately, I have already collected the stones with any value, so it won't hurt to let them take a few back."
She has a section in her warehouse specifically set aside for storing stones. She must already know the factors, so not only did she dig up the mountain before, but she also wants to explore further now.
However, there are some things she needs to prepare for tonight.
Qiao Lian'er found the original form of Naga Buddha in the space, a python with colorful patterns all over its body, and all the creatures in it acted according to her will.
The soldiers were mainly stationed at the foot of the mountain, and some were stationed at the entrance to the warehouse area, but they were all captivated by the scenery.
Qiao Lian'er went down from the stilted building and into the warehouse area. Several people came, their faces covered, and using the dim light coming from the stilted building, they selected items in the most expensive section. In the end, each person carried a stone and stuffed a few smaller ones into their sleeves.
Then, they nodded to each other and prepared to leave.
Suddenly, someone noticed something, pointed at a shadow winding out from a corner, screamed, and took several steps back, afraid of being exposed. He quickly covered his mouth.
The others looked in the direction he was pointing and were also startled when they saw what it was. It seemed to be the original form of Naga Buddha, called the Bloodcarpet Python, which rarely appeared in the world, but suddenly such a large one appeared.
"Hurry up," they said in the local language.
Then they used their lightness skills to escape while carrying the stones. Their lightness skills were not like those of the Central Plains, but rather like those of apes, leaping and bounding a distance, which was quite comical.
Qiao Lian'er followed him to Uncle Yin's place.
The stones were opened and revealed one by one to Uncle Yin.
"Are these the most valuable stones in Miss Shui's hands?" Uncle Yin asked.
They are all worth several hundred taels, at most a thousand taels.
“Yes, we got the goods from the most expensive warehouse area. Miss Shui treats them like treasures and even put up a fence around them,” said one of her henchmen dressed in black.
Uncle Yin pondered, "If this kind of stone can be produced in large quantities, she can break even and make a profit. But what's the point of going through all this trouble?"
Seeing that his men looked a little off, he asked, "What happened? Are you all scared?"
"Uncle Yin, when we were about to take the stone away, a very large blood carpet python appeared. There are no blood carpet pythons in this area, which is very strange."
"Right in the Water Girl's warehouse district?"
