Chapter 69 Hollowing Out (1/2)



Chapter 69 Emptying

As soon as the two entered, Ye Ran pointed to the corner where Xu Xiaocao was fiddling with.

Lu Yi walked straight over, then examined it carefully, gently tapping the brick there with his finger.

When they tapped on a brick that produced a hollow sound that was distinctly different from the others, their eyes lit up.

Lu Yi gently pressed the brick with his wrist, and a dark opening appeared before them, with a staircase leading directly underground...

Ye Ran took out the flashlight she had prepared beforehand and handed it to Lu Yi.

After Lu Yi took it, he immediately grabbed Ye Ran's hand and shielded her behind him. The two of them carefully descended the stairs...

Ye Ran, in her soul form, couldn't sense anything, but as she followed Lu Yi down, she clearly felt the difference below...

The temperature was noticeably lower and the air was drier; it was actually a place specifically built for storing items.

It seems... Xu Qiang put a lot of thought into hiding these things!

Once the two of them reached the bottom, the flashlight beam illuminated the interior, making everything clearly visible...

Looking at the piles of antique porcelain vases, Ye Ran couldn't help but grit her teeth, "That bastard Xu Qiang! He's not even human!"

His grandfather had saved his life, and not only did he conspire with others to frame his grandfather, he also had the audacity to hoard so many things!

Lu Yi smoothed Ye Ran's hair. "Don't get too angry and hurt yourself. We've finally emptied him of everything he's kept hidden for so many years."

This time... I'm sure it'll really infuriate him!

Ye Ran nodded. "Xu Qiang, if I don't make you so angry you vomit blood this time, I'm not worthy of calling myself a descendant of the Bai family!"

The two of them gathered the items together and put them into their spatial storage. After putting away the larger items, Ye Ran walked over to the table that Xu Xiaocao had flipped over.

Ye Ran also crawled down, pulled out the box from under the table, and then felt around and realized there was something else underneath...

"Lu Yi, come quick! I have a feeling there's something else down there!"

Lu Yi simply flipped the rather large square table over, and after it was turned over, both of them were speechless...

"What does Xu Qiang do? How come he's so cunning? He's rummaged through a table like a woodpecker has pecked at a tree..." Lu Yi was speechless.

Ye Ran was speechless. She had thought Xu Xiaocao must be incredibly smart and perceptive to discover what Xu Qiang had hidden underneath.

Turns out... you can find one just by touching it casually...

It seems Xu Xiaocao hasn't completely exposed Xu Qiang's secrets; you can tell just by looking at this table...

Underneath the table were boxes of varying sizes pieced together, and Xu Xiaocao could only pull out two loose boxes in the center.

Everything else was firmly nailed to the table, and even the table legs seemed to be pieced together from small boxes...

Just as Ye Ran was about to start breaking them off one by one, Lu Yi took over.

He pulled out an iron fork from somewhere and quickly dismantled the entire table into a pile of wooden blocks along the gaps...

Ye Ran was stunned by his actions. "Where did you get this?"

Lu Yi casually picked up a fork and started digging at the ground again, saying calmly, "I just saw it next to me and grabbed it. I guess Xu Qiang usually keeps it here."
