Chapter 23: Discovering the Secret Agent's Traces
Lin Cuicui looked at Tang Yue in surprise, "Girl, what do you mean by that?"
Seeing that everyone in the family was listening attentively, Tang Yue expressed her thoughts.
"I don't know if the spies took the black box with them when they went to other houses to kill people, but they definitely took it with them when they left.
Now we don’t know how many such black boxes the spies have in total, whether there is only one, or there is one such black box for every two spies.
Now that the two spies who came to our house have not returned, it proves that the black box is also lost.
There is a lot of money in it, and those spies will not give it up so easily.
So when they come to our house again, there will definitely be a lot of spies."
Several people were unable to remain calm. If a large group of people really came at once as his daughter said, then what chance would they have of survival?
Lin Cuicui and Tang Shengkai were both a little anxious. Looking at the children, Lin Cuicui still spoke her mind.
"How about we find a place for the kids to hide?"
Tang Shengkai naturally had the same idea, but the villagers were definitely not allowed to go, and the mountains were not safe. It was winter, with ice and snow everywhere. He might not be killed by the secret agents before freezing to death.
Finally he sighed, "There's nowhere to hide."
Lin Cuicui seemed to know the result and wiped her tears silently.
Tang Shengkai was also a little frustrated. He lowered his head and said, "It's all Dad's fault that you've been implicated."
The three Tangbei brothers all reached out their little hands to grab Tang Shengkai's. Seeing this, Tang Yue didn't pull back either. Suddenly, two more little hands appeared in each of Tang Shengkai's hands. He looked up to see the four children staring at him with worried eyes.
"Dad, you are the best dad to us. We are a family. It doesn't matter if we are involved or not. As long as we are together, that's all that matters."
Tang Dong is not a big man, but what he said moved Tang Shengkai so much that he couldn't hold back his tears for a moment.
Tang Yue wasn't so pessimistic. With her current abilities, killing a dozen or twenty people with the same skills as the two spies who came yesterday would be no problem. She shook Tang Shengkai's hand.
"Dad, have you forgotten about me? I'm very capable."
Seeing his daughter's serious look, Tang Shengkai couldn't bear to say anything disparaging. Even if his daughter was so powerful, how many could she handle alone? Could she handle 20 or more?
Tang Yue knew that Tang Shengkai didn't believe in her, but she couldn't just kill a few people to prove herself.
"Dad, please teach me how to use a gun. I'll be more powerful if I can use a gun."
Tang Shengkai was naturally happy to teach his daughter some more skills, so he took out his pistol, unloaded the bullets, and began to explain to the children, while Lin Cuicui was listening.
Tang Yue studied very seriously. This gun was very new to her. She had never heard many things that Tang Shengkai talked about before. However, Tang Shengkai explained it in great detail and she understood it in no time.
Although I don’t know how to make it, there is definitely no problem using it.
Tang Bei and his three young men had an inexplicable attraction to guns. With just a little guidance from Tang Shengkai, they were able to completely disassemble the gun and then slowly reassemble it.
Tang Yue also took aim at the gun in a professional manner. She thought that if there was a bullet in it, she should be able to hit the spy.
Lin Cuicui came in from the outer room, a hint of worry in her eyes. "Master, what should we do if this black box isn't safe at home?"
Tang Shengkai had just been teaching the children how to shoot guns and was excited. Now he felt that he had the power to command the world. When he heard Lin Cuicui's words, his expression suddenly dimmed.
"These things must have been plundered from our country during our leisure time. We can't let them get away with it. If it really doesn't work out..."
Tang Shengkai's face was gloomy. "Even if we burn them all, we can't give them to them."
Tang Yue sat on the kang, looking up at her parents seriously. She was thinking, why didn't she bring a storage bag or storage bracelet with her?
If I had those things, I wouldn't have any problem packing up the whole house, let alone one box.
Lin Cuicui raised this question. In fact, Tang Yue was also thinking about how to keep the box and how to prevent the money from being burned.
That's more than 8,000 yuan. After learning a lot from the book, Tang Yue understood the significance of this 8,000 yuan.
Maybe there is no family in the entire county that can afford 8,000 yuan.
Suddenly, Tang Yue remembered something. She had once helped an inner sect senior brother in a secret realm, and he had later taken her to the inner sect's library.
In a very inconspicuous corner, in a tattered book that almost no one paid attention to, she saw a cultivation method - mental power training method.
The book said that when one's mental strength is trained to its peak, one can directly create a storage space in the mind. When Tang Yue saw it at the time, she thought this was incredible, but now she thought she could give it a try.
She couldn't find the materials for refining weapons, and she had no way to build a storage space. Even if she had the materials, it was uncertain when she could refine it. Instead, this mental training method became the most feasible way.
"So much money? Burn it all? That would be a shame." Tang Shengkai was silent for a moment. He knew that the money was hard-earned, but if it fell into the hands of spies, it would be better to burn it.
"Mom and Dad, burning money is illegal." Tang Bei explained seriously to Tang Shengkai and Lin Cuicui. Tang Shengkai sighed. It was already late, his life was almost gone, so why would he care about whether it was illegal or not?
Tang Yue discovered that her father sighed very easily.
"Mom and Dad, hasn't it come to that yet? Maybe the outcome won't be that bad?"
Before going to bed at night, Lin Cuicui brought all the iron shovels, iron shovels, pickaxes, and several wooden barrels from home into the house.
He moved the cabinet from the west room onto the kang, placed it in a corner to create a small space, and watched over the three Tangbei brothers.
"If the spies come, you three can hide in this gap. Bullets can't penetrate the wall, but this cabinet can block them. Do you understand?"
Looking at Lin Cuicui's serious eyes, the three Tangbei brothers were a little scared, but they all nodded seriously.
Old Li sat on the edge of the kang and knocked on his pipe.
"Don't worry, your Uncle Qian and I are here. If the spies really come, we will definitely hide them all."
Tang Yue looked at Lin Cuicui's worried eyes and became more determined. She wanted to become stronger quickly. She hoped the spies would come a few days later.
However, the spies did not hear Tang Yue's thoughts. When Tang Yue closed her eyes in the middle of the night to intensify her practice and was about to reach the second level of Qi training, she suddenly opened her eyes.
Just now, she was practicing with her eyes closed, thinking about going to the back mountain to take a look. What if the spy was hiding somewhere in the back mountain or came out from the back mountain at this time, how should she deal with it?
As she was thinking this, she didn't know why her consciousness actually went to the back mountain. From the backyard all the way into the deep mountains, Tang Yue could see the surrounding trees and grass on the ground very clearly.
Her consciousness circled around East Mountain and North Mountain, but found nothing. As she circled westward from the top of North Mountain, she noticed something was wrong on a pile of rotten stones.
There sat more than twenty men wearing bowler hats and the same black coats as the two secret agents who had died at home.
Tang Yue counted carefully—23. She curled her lips. These spies really thought highly of their family. Tang Yue's consciousness darted around again, but she didn't notice anyone else.
She raised her gaze upwards, following the trail of the spies, and returned to a spot about 300 meters from her backyard. There stood a tree so large that an adult could not wrap their arms around it.
There was a dark shadow on the tree, quietly staring at her house. His gaze moved around to other places, but he didn't find anything. Tang Yue was sure that there were 24 people in total.
The moment she opened her eyes, Tang Yue had already decided that she wanted to go out and meet these people.
24 of them. Needless to say, none of them were strong enough to even fight a chicken. Even if Grandpa Li and Grandpa Qian had some skills and could shoot, their family only had four guns in total, including the hunting rifle brought by Grandpa Qian.
They haven't used it yet. Her father has difficulty walking and has no way to fight against 24 spies.
Now she could only rely on herself to deal with them. Tang Yue got up quietly and left the yard.
