Chapter 216 Husband, I will help you
at this time.
A village more than 30 miles away from Fanzhou.
Several villagers were sitting under a big tree at the entrance of the village, chatting idly.
But his eyes are always looking in all directions.
Lu Wanyin and Xie Jingci stood in a thatched house in the village.
Lu Wanyin looked out through the cracked earth wall.
Xie Jingci didn't look outside, only at her: "How?"
Lu Wanyin frowned. "These people don't look like farmers. They seem very nervous and always on guard against something."
"clever."
Xie Jingci pointed at the two men's feet approvingly: "Here, there is a huge treasure."
Lu Wanyin was shocked.
She looked around but couldn't find any treasure hidden in a place that she could see the bottom of at a glance.
"Space, can you detect anything good here?"
Soon, the system's mechanical voice sounded: "No unclaimed supplies detected."
Seeing Lu Wanyin suddenly become dazed, Xie Jingci thought she had not found the treasure he mentioned, and felt confused.
He then explained, "The Lin family and the prefect colluded with the Qi Xuanhou Mansion and did so many shameful things. Not to mention the wealth that is visible on the surface, where is the hidden wealth hidden?"
Lu Wanyin's eyes slowly widened: "You have been looking for this these days."
To others, this is just a normal village.
Who would doubt going here?
Xie Jingci used his slender fingertips to circle the village's terrain in the air. "There are two large trees in front and behind the village, one for exit and one for entrance, forming an underground maze. Inside is a portion of the wealth accumulated by the Qi Xuanhou Mansion in recent years."
Someone walked slowly outside the door.
Lu Wanyin noticed that the patrolmen were looking at the doors and windows of each house.
Sure enough, these houses were just a cover.
No wonder Xie Jingci asked her to teleport in directly.
Lu Wanyin fell silent. After the two men walked away, she tugged at Xie Jingci's sleeve and said, "What are you waiting for? Don't leave them a single penny."
No wonder the space said that no unowned materials were detected.
It seems like it needs to evolve. Even if it's already taken, it's fine.
After all, she is best at things like confiscating property.
"Don't worry, there are traps everywhere."
Xie Jingci held her hand down. "There's still a group of people who haven't come out from underground. They're very vigilant, and the patrol turnover is very tight. Wait for the next group to lead us in."
Very good and powerful.
He even knew the details of other people's patrols.
Sure enough, after a while, another group of people came from the back of the village.
As soon as they turned around the village, Lu Wanyin saw them.
The few people who were originally chatting at the village entrance suddenly stopped laughing, fiddled with the tree roots for a few times, and soon entered a secret passage.
Lu Wanyin was not in a hurry. She waited for Xie Jingci to count for a few seconds, and then the two of them disappeared in the room.
The underground passage is winding.
There are small doors on both sides of the passage.
The door was filled with all kinds of treasures.
The space is not big and there are no door panels on the doors.
Just stand at the door and take a casual glance to see it from beginning to end.
Lu Wanyin and the other person held their breath, standing in the middle aisle, stepping on the bricks that the people in front of them had stepped on.
Gain as you go.
After a long time, she began to notice something.
Every room on both sides is filled with traps from top to bottom, making it impossible for anyone to enter.
In the entire secret passage, taking a wrong step means death.
Lu Wanyin teleported forward in sections.
The things on both sides disappeared silently.
She is responsible for collecting things.
Xie Jingci was responsible for helping her keep an eye on the next place to stay.
The two of them never exchanged a word, but they had an extraordinary tacit understanding.
The space prompt sound keeps ringing.
100 points, 200 points...
Just by looking at the points reward, Lu Wanyin knew that these things were not bad.
Lu Wanyin breathed a sigh of relief after the people leading the way left the secret passage.
After collecting the last few things, he quickly teleported out of the underground palace.
Lu Wanyin found an inconspicuous place to stay, and looked at the group of people who were about to enter, and smiled slightly: "Don't they still want to kill people to silence them? Since they are so free, I will give him another surprise."
Xie Jingci nodded: "Okay."
Lu Wanyin raised her hand slightly, and a faint green light appeared on her entire palm.
In an instant, the roots of the big tree at the entrance of the village, which were buried in the ground, began to grow wildly downwards.
The door to the secret passage was completely blocked by the tangled roots.
Before these people could recover from the sudden change, they heard rustling sounds under their feet.
"not good!"
Someone reacted and quickly retreated.
In an instant, cracks appeared on the ground, and the soil was turned out, carrying dense roots with it.
The mud houses that were built casually to look like decorations collapsed one after another.
The underground secret passage was completely exposed.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
Countless arrows and poisonous needles shot out from the rising smoke and dust.
Some people were caught off guard and were stabbed all over their bodies, dying instantly.
Seeing the peaceful village completely boiling with excitement, Lu Wanyin was extremely satisfied: "Let's go."
She hoped that the Duke Xuan of Qi would like the gift she sent.
She looked at Xie Jingci with an unsatisfied look: "Where are we going next?"
It would be great to have another one, picking up silver feels so good!
Seeing that she was still unsatisfied, Xie Jingci tapped her forehead lightly, "Of course, we're going back to the city. Opportunities like this are rare. If the Lin family hadn't failed to assassinate Hou Yuanji that day, revealing some flaws and allowing Xuan Shiliu to follow the clues and find us here, you and I might not have noticed the ins and outs even if we were passing by."
Lu Wanyin nodded.
Xie Jingci spent several days trying to find such a place, which was already very good.
Moreover, the more places like this there are, the more corrupt officials there are.
The ones who suffered the most were actually the people who were plundered.
However, it was Xie Jingci's ability that allowed him to find this out.
Lu Wanyin praised sincerely: "No wonder those people in Beijing regard you as a thorn in their side. Which family doesn't have some secrets? You have found them all. How can others get away with it?"
I couldn't sleep well.
Xie Jingci suppressed his smile and looked at the tall city walls of Fanzhou, the coldness in his eyes seemed to be real.
The voice was filled with a solemn tone that hadn't been heard for a long time: "One day, the secrets of these people will be exposed to the world, and they will become sharp arrows that will backfire on them."
Just like the man in the village who was pricked like a hedgehog.
Lu Wanyin turned her head to look at him, not missing the unwillingness in his eyes.
How could I possibly accept that?
Xie Jingci became a general at a young age and fought for many years.
A brave and skilled general can die by the sword of the enemy on the battlefield, but cannot fall by the arrows of his own people.
Lu Wanyin gently hooked Xie Jingci's hand.
When he looked over, Lu Wanyin held his hand tightly and made him a promise: "I will help you. They will be the only ones who will fail miserably."
The coldness in Xie Jingci's eyes disappeared instantly, and he gave her a faint smile in return.
"good."
