Old Master Qin was pushed and stumbled as he walked inside.
Wang Wu and the others followed closely behind Old Master Qin and went inside.
Gu Yong exchanged a glance with the two people beside him and walked at the back.
After the group entered the cave, Ye Weiwei quietly got down and followed them inside.
The cave was long and dark, so Wang Wu and his companions took out flashlights they had prepared beforehand to illuminate it and walked carefully.
Ye Weiwei's mental energy was not limited by light and spread out rapidly.
The cave was huge, much bigger than Ye Weiwei had imagined.
Even with her current mental strength, she can only see a part of it, not the whole thing.
But gradually, a strange look appeared on Ye Weiwei's face.
Gu Yong said he brought these people to search for treasure, and she thought there was an undiscovered tomb here that they wanted to rob.
However, based on her observation, this place is not just a simple tomb.
Or perhaps this place was once a tomb, but now it has long since been used for something else.
Seeing that Old Master Qin was alright, Ye Weiwei suppressed her strange feelings and continued to follow them.
Since we're here, we might as well see what's going on here.
"Wow! Look over here!" A person walking behind Grandpa Qin suddenly pointed to a spot and exclaimed in surprise.
Everyone quickly looked over and discovered that something on the stone was glowing.
A group of people rushed over to see.
There were scattered gold ingots and gold bricks on the rock; those were the ones the flashlight beam had just illuminated.
"We're rich! We're rich now!"
One of them excitedly picked up a gold ingot, put it in his mouth and bit it. Looking at the teeth marks on it, he shouted with joy.
The others weren't much better off; they were all flushed with excitement.
Compared to them, Gu Yong and the two people beside him were much calmer, as if they had expected this to happen and were not surprised at all.
Ye Weiwei frowned.
Something's not right.
Just as this thought popped into her head, a large iron cage suddenly fell from the sky, trapping the people who were excitedly scrambling for the gold.
Wang Wu was the first to come to his senses. Seeing that he was trapped in a cage, he looked at Gu Yong with a grim expression and asked, "Brother Yong, what do you mean by this?"
All of them, including the old man they captured, were trapped in an iron cage. Only Gu Yong and the two people beside him were unharmed. If they still couldn't see that this was a trap set by Gu Yong for them, then they would have wasted all these years of their lives.
"That's right, Brother Yong, what are you doing? We brothers are here to make a fortune with you. You're the boss, so how you divide this gold is up to you. We'll all listen to you."
One of the quick-witted ones immediately put down the gold ingot in his hand and looked at Gu Yong ingratiatingly.
He knew that Gu Yong had a gun, and now that they were tied up in the cage, they had no way to escape. If Gu Yong wanted to kill them to silence them, none of them would survive.
Therefore, given the choice between gold and his life, he wisely chose his life.
Wang Wu knew this wasn't the time to break ties with Gu Yong, so he quickly tried to salvage the situation, saying, "Brother Yong, don't worry, I'll do whatever you say about how to divide this gold. I'm not greedy, just give me a little bit of compensation for my hard work."
The others chimed in, all expressing their loyalty, fearing that Gu Yong would kill them.
Gu Yong watched with great interest as these people fawned over him, a cold smile always playing on his lips, as if he were watching a group of clowns.
Looking at Gu Yong's expression, Ye Weiwei's doubts deepened.
Her intuition told her that Gu Yong tied these people up not because he was worried about the spoils being divided equally.
This must all be a setup by Gu Yong, with these people as the target.
But Gu Yong doesn't seem to have any deep-seated hatred for Wang Wu and the others, so why would he do this?
The group had been talking until their throats were dry, but when they noticed that Gu Yong remained silent, their voices gradually lowered, and they all stopped talking and stared at Gu Yong and the other two.
Gu Yong scoffed coldly: "Speak up, why aren't you saying anything?"
Wang Wu asked with a stern face, "Gu Yong, what exactly do you want to do?"
Gu Yong smiled knowingly: "What am I going to do? I'll lead you to riches! I, Gu Yong, always keep my word, haven't I already led you to find treasure?"
Wang Wu was so angry he wanted to curse.
You call this leading them to find treasure?
This is clearly a trap they've set for them to fall into!
Now they're trapped in this big iron cage. What good is finding the treasure? They can only watch it from afar, unable to take it with them.
At this moment, Liu Tie, who was next to Gu Yong, said disdainfully, "Do you really think that a free lunch will fall from the sky? A bunch of idiots! Enjoy the rest of your lives."
Wang Wu's scalp tingled. "What do you mean?"
Liu Tie smiled wickedly: "It means exactly what it says!"
After saying that, he looked at Gu Yong and asked, "Boss, isn't it about time?"
Wang Wu's heart sank even further, and he asked angrily, "What time? You better explain yourself clearly!"
No sooner had he said this than a commotion broke out among the people around him. Someone rolled their eyes and fell to the ground, startling everyone around.
And this was like a signal; soon, the people in the cage began to fall down one after another with thuds.
Wang Wu was the last one. He glared at Gu Yong and the others, "You...you're so vicious..."
Liu Tie stepped forward and punched Wang Wu hard, cursing, "You bastard! I've been wanting to get rid of you for a long time! Always jumping around like a madman! You almost ruined our boss's plans!"
"Boss, what should we do with that old geezer? Should we get rid of him?"
Liu Tie pointed to Old Master Qin lying on the ground in the cage.
Gu Yong waved his hand: "No need! Once they're in that place, they'll never get out. At least they're alive, so they're counted as heads."
Liu Tie laughed upon hearing this, then glanced at the gold on the ground. "These idiots dared to touch even your things, boss! They deserve their bad luck! This lesson will teach them a lesson they won't forget!"
Gu Yong looked at the people on the ground, his eyes full of mockery.
"Go and notify them to come and inspect the goods."
Liu Tie responded and left.
Ye Weiwei followed him with her mental energy and found that he was moving through the cave. He came to a stone wall with familiarity, found a small protrusion, and pressed it down. The stone wall opened, revealing a cave. After Ye Weiwei saw the situation inside the cave, she clenched her fists angrily.
asshole!
How dare they!
Liu Tie quickly found the people inside and talked to them for a while. Then, more than a dozen people came out. The leader was a fair-skinned man with no beard and wearing thick glasses. He looked excited when he saw the people in the cage.
"Your shipment arrived just in time! We're short-handed right now!"
