Chapter 1149: The Thief Cries Out (Part 1)
"Aunt Wu, I will only dig in this place. If I don't find sweet potatoes here, I will never dig anywhere else." Lu Xiaoxiao curled her lips after hearing what Wu Xiahua said.
"You just had someone dig up the front door of my house. I will never let you dig up the inside of my house like that."
"Aunt, I told you to dig this one spot. If you don't find it, I won't let anyone dig again. And I'll have someone level the ground until you're satisfied. Is that okay?"
"Aunt Wu, just let Lu Xiaoxiao dig. If she fails to dig out sweet potatoes, the team will deduct twenty work points from her. Then I will transfer the work points deducted from Lu Xiaoxiao to the Liu family." The captain looked at Wu Xiahua and said.
After hearing the captain's words, everyone looked at Wu Chunhua with envy. At this moment, they wished that Lu Xiaoxiao would dig in front of their house so that they could get twenty work points for free.
After hearing what the captain said, Wu Chunhua knew that she had to agree to let Lu Xiaoxiao dig the land in the yard today. She just hoped that Lu Xiaoxiao had bad luck and would not dig to the entrance.
"Go ahead and dig. We agreed to only dig one place." Wu Chunhua said to Lu Xiaoxiao.
"good."
Just now, when Liu Biao and the others were digging, Lu Xiaoxiao tried to use her mental power to sense the underground. Although her mental power was relatively weak and could not reach too deep underground, it was enough for her to find where the entrance to the secret room was.
"Lu Xiaoxiao, there is something wrong with this place. I think I dug up a stone." Liu Erdan said to Lu Xiaoxiao.
After hearing what Liu Erdan said, Lu Xiaoxiao walked to Liu Erdan, then squatted down and touched the place Liu Erdan mentioned with her hand.
"Liu Erdan, use a hoe to clean up the soil in this area." Lu Xiaoxiao said to Liu Erdan.
"good."
Wu Chunhua and Liu Jianshu's faces changed immediately when Liu Erdan said that he had dug up a stone. No one knew what the stone was used for better than them. They really wanted to rush up to stop Liu Erdan from cleaning the soil, but they knew they couldn't. Now they could only think of a way to get away.
"Lu Xiaoxiao, this seems to be the entrance to something." Liu Erdan and Er Shunzi worked together to pull up the stone slab and said to Lu Xiaoxiao.
"Captain, I'll go down and take a look first." Lu Xiaoxiao said to the captain after hearing Liu Erdan's words.
"I'll take the men down."
Lu Xiaoxiao nodded after hearing the captain's words, but when the captain led his men downstairs, she asked Liu Biao and the other two to follow as well.
Five minutes later, the captain returned to the ground with a gloomy face. He threw a bag of sweet potatoes in front of Wu Xiahua and Liu Jianshu and said, "Explain to me the origin of these sweet potatoes."
Wu Chunhua and Liu Jianshu moved their lips after hearing the captain's words, but they couldn't say a word because the evidence was conclusive and they could not say anything.
"Captain, you don't need to ask. There are dozens of bags of sweet potatoes in the basement. It's easy to tell that the sweet potatoes from the two acres of land at the entrance of the village were stolen by the Liu family." Liu Biao heard the captain's words as soon as he came out of the basement, so he spoke to the captain.
"Brother Biao is right. The thieves who stole the sweet potatoes are from the Liu family. Otherwise, where did those sweet potatoes come from?" Er Shunzi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw the dozens of bags of sweet potatoes in the basement, but then he thought of Liu Jianshu framing their family, so he said angrily and sarcastically.
