Such paintings are usually created when the owner wants something, and they use a painting of a hundred bloodstains to make a deal with spirits and gods in order to achieve their goal.
She used to think this was nonsense, after all, she grew up under the red flag in her previous life and didn't believe in such superstitious and supernatural things.
But seeing it appear before her today was something she couldn't accept for a moment, which is why she lost control just now.
What would happen if this painting were completed?
Li Xiaochen frowned upon hearing Lin Yuxin's words. If that were true, then this city lord truly deserved to die!
"It won't have any immediate effect. This is just for praying for blessings. I don't know what the effect will be, but judging from the fact that we felt uncomfortable as soon as we entered this courtyard, this painting has an impact on the feng shui and fortune of this courtyard."
"But none of this concerns us. What infuriates me is that so many lives were actually sacrificed for a single painting. It's outrageous!!"
Lin Yuxin shook her head and explained, but she was really angry when it came to this painting.
"Alright, I'll have someone inquire about who painted this picture and then we'll go find him!"
Seeing Xin Xin so angry, Li Xiaochen had no choice but to comfort her. However, what he said was true. Whether in Zhao or Xia, this kind of murderous maniac deserved to die.
"Okay, let's find Squeaky!"
Lin Yuxin regained her composure, stopped looking at the painting that made her want to kill, and turned to Li Xiaochen.
Li Xiaochen nodded in agreement, and Lin Yuxin closed her eyes and began to sense the direction of the squeaking.
A moment later, Lin Yuxin opened her eyes again, pursed her lips, and looked at the painting once more.
"The direction of the squeak is in that painting."
Lin Yuxin looked at the painting again carefully, and even tugged at it, but she couldn't see anything wrong with it. She stood there frowning, wondering where Zhizhi had gone.
Upon hearing Lin Yuxin's words, Li Xiaochen raised an eyebrow. "If it's not the painting itself, but its location?"
Li Xiaochen's sharp gaze swept around the study, and after looking around, his eyes settled on the God of Wealth statue on the desk.
Why is there a God of Wealth statue on the desk? Li Xiaochen felt something was wrong and slowly walked over, intending to pick up the God of Wealth statue to examine it. However, instead of picking up the statue, Li Xiaochen accidentally knocked the gold ingot out of its hand.
"Bang!"
Hearing the sound of a gold ingot falling, Lin Yuxin looked over and saw it on the ground. She immediately ran over, quickly picked it up, and said happily:
"How could there be gold ingots here?"
As Lin Yuxin asked the question, she put the gold ingot in her mouth and bit it. There was a tooth mark, so it was real!
"Hey! This is from the God of Wealth!"
Li Xiaochen pointed to the God of Wealth on the desk and said calmly.
Watching Lin Yuxin's series of actions, he really wanted to open her little head and see what was going on. She was the dignified Regent's Consort, the entire Regent's Palace belonged to her, was she really that short of money?
Lin Yuxin looked in the direction Li Xiaochen was pointing and indeed saw a God of Wealth with his hands clasped in front of his chest, but they were currently empty.
Lin Yuxin hurriedly ran to the God of Wealth, bowed with her hands, and muttered:
"God of Wealth, I am so sorry for my offense! I have just lost money and I need your support now. Consider this a gift from you. When I become rich in the future, I will do more good deeds and benefit the people."
After Lin Yuxin finished speaking, she bowed three times in the direction of the God of Wealth, and then naturally put the gold ingot into her pocket.
Li Xiaochen's lips twitched. His own wife, his own wife, the wife he married!
Just as Lin Yuxin finished praying, the table under the painting suddenly rotated.
Lin Yuxin and Li Xiaochen exchanged a glance and found it.
Li Xiaochen walked in front, and Lin Yuxin followed behind, as they entered the hidden door.
Upon entering, one finds a spacious, secret room filled with glittering gold ingots. The room is overflowing with them, along with other jewels, and several boxes of them.
"This city lord is quite wealthy!"
Lin Yuxin murmured happily, but since it was a secret room, even if she spoke softly, Li Xiaochen could hear her. He looked at this little money-grubbing woman and ignored her.
Squeaky is currently rolling and jumping on a box, behaving unusually actively.
Seeing Lin Yuxin approaching, it quickly flew over and called out:
"Squeak squeak squeak!"
I want the contents of this box; could you take it back for me?
Hearing its words, Lin Yuxin became curious. She raised an eyebrow, walked over, looked at the palm-sized box, and asked curiously:
What's inside?
"Squeak squeak squeak!"
This contains the venom of the King of Ten Thousand Poisonous Snakes, which is beneficial to me.
Lin Yuxin wasn't so curious after hearing that. Zhizhi could absorb all kinds of poisons and control Gu worms, so eating more poison would be good for it. Since Zhizhi wanted it, she would take it back.
"Okay! I'll help you retrieve your spatial storage first!"
Lin Yuxin simply waved her hand, and the small box disappeared.
Lin Yuxin glanced at the gold ingots around her again. Without being polite, she figured she might as well take them since she was already there. So she waved her hand again, and the entire secret room was emptied.
Lin Yuxin looked at the empty room with satisfaction. She walked up to Li Xiaochen, smiled sweetly at him, and said:
"Let's go! Let's get out!"
"good!"
Looking at Lin Yuxin's happy face again, Li Xiaochen affectionately patted her head and answered softly.
Since Xin Xin likes such worldly things as gold and silver, he'll just help her find more! As long as she's happy!
