Lu Yu was startled and shook his head quickly, as if to get rid of all those messy thoughts.
He took a deep breath, trying to calm his mind and refocus all his attention on the imminent task at hand.
Lu Yu's face was grim, and he stood motionless like a sculpture.
However, beneath that seemingly calm appearance, there is actually a powerful force surging.
He acted decisively and stepped on the brake pedal of his mind without hesitation, abruptly blocking the distracting thoughts that kept emerging in his mind and instantly bringing his thoughts back to the most critical issue at the moment.
"Well... at the moment, this tunnel is relatively safe." Lu Yu's voice was low and firm, carrying an unquestionable majesty. "You two, each guard one of the entrances and exits. Remember, you must be extremely alert and don't take it lightly!"
He paused, glanced sharply at the two soldiers, and continued:
"To ensure your own safety, you must not allow anyone to enter the tunnel without permission. Unless you are absolutely certain that the person is a close ally, or even if there is even the slightest doubt, you must not open this defense line lightly! Do you understand?"
After receiving the two's affirmative response, Lu Yu breathed a sigh of relief, but his hands did not stop moving at all. He methodically laid out the subsequent action plan, and each sentence was clear and concise.
"As for me, I need to go out and look for Captain Guan immediately. Time is of the essence and there is no time to lose!"
Before he finished speaking, Lu Yu flashed and rushed out of the cave like an arrow.
The two soldiers did not dare to be negligent at all. They quickly took their positions according to Lu Yu's instructions and guarded the entrance and exit of the cave with full concentration.
As soon as Lu Yu came out of the cave, he carefully covered the hole tightly with wooden boards, leaving no gaps.
Then, he deftly moved the wooden bed that was originally used to cover the cave entrance back to its original position, making it look integrated with the surrounding environment without revealing any flaws.
After everything was arranged, he clapped his hands lightly, turned around and walked out of the courtyard, embarking on a journey to find his comrade Guan Yunpeng.
At this moment, Lu Yu was busy searching for important clues such as secret passages and explosives. His busy figure shuttled through every corner, not missing any possible clues.
At the same time, Qin Wan on the other side was also very busy, but her purpose was very different from Lu Yu's - to earn some extra money.
It turned out that Qin Wan had heard from somewhere that the hateful human traffickers had already moved away all the gold, silver, jewelry and various precious items in the secret passage.
However, she was a thoughtful woman who changed her mind and realized that no matter how nimble these guys were, they couldn't possibly carry away everything. As long as she moved quickly enough and got there, she would definitely be able to pick up some of the treasures that were left behind.
As a result, she couldn't help but feel secretly happy in her heart, and her steps became lighter and lighter.
When Qin Wan finally arrived at the legendary courtyard, she saw the entrance to the abandoned secret passage at a glance.
At that moment, her mood was more than just good, it could be described as ecstatic!
After stepping into the courtyard, she quickly began to collect objects around her like a nimble cat.
It didn't take long for Qin Wan to harvest a lot. The first thing that caught his eye was two exquisite sandalwood eight-immortal tables, the exquisite craftsmanship of which was amazing.
Then, she was pleasantly surprised to find a tri-color vase from the Tang Dynasty, which was colorful and well-preserved; even more unexpectedly, she also got a small bronze three-eared incense burner from the Shang Dynasty.
These treasures made Qin Wan smile from ear to ear, and her eyes narrowed into slits.
However, her good luck did not seem to stop there. As Qin Wan continued to explore, she unexpectedly found a hidden secret room not far from the secret passage.
With full of anticipation, she cautiously pushed open the door of the secret room. In an instant, a dazzling golden light almost blinded her.
Looking closely, I saw two large boxes neatly placed in the secret room. When I opened them, they were full of golden little yellow croakers!
Faced with this wealth that was like a blessing from heaven, Qin Wan felt as if his heart was about to jump out of his throat. He was so excited that he could hardly control himself, and his heartbeat kept accelerating.
If the current environment allowed, she even thought she would be so excited that she could jump ten circles in a row to express her inner joy!
After calming down a little, she carefully put all these precious treasures into her own mysterious space.
Then, she once again exerted her powerful spiritual power, like a radar scan, and searched the courtyard and the secret passage hidden in the dark carefully and meticulously.
At first, she laughed in her heart, mocking herself for being too cautious.
After all, this area had already been thoroughly searched with spiritual sense before. According to common sense, how could there be any fish that slipped through the net?
However, the truth was beyond her expectations.
During her renewed search, she made a series of surprising discoveries. First, in an unassuming tree hole, she found a small, exquisite box containing a jade necklace.
Later, in a secret compartment at the head of a bed, he unexpectedly found a warm, emerald green jade bracelet;
Finally, a golden ring shining with dazzling light was successfully dug out from under a seemingly ordinary empty brick.
These treasures were so small in size that she accidentally overlooked them during the previous round of search.
This experience also sounded a wake-up call for Qin Wan. It made her realize that if a similar opportunity to "find a bargain" arises in the future, she must maintain a high level of confidence and vigilance, and must not miss out on anything valuable due to a momentary negligence.
When Qin Wan finally decided to leave this courtyard to find another one, she had searched the courtyard for the third time and found that there was really no fish that had escaped the net. Then she decided to find Lu Yu and then pick up a lot of fish in that courtyard.
When Qin Wan finally arrived at the mysterious courtyard, she couldn't wait to release her powerful spiritual sense to find out whether the target person Lu Yu was there.
However, after a quick look, she did not see Lu Yu.
