"Master, something terrible has happened!"
"Master, something terrible has happened!"
Chen Kui's voice came from outside the courtyard before he even arrived.
Fang Junfeng is drinking tea.
Then he heard that voice, and he trembled all over. He immediately stood up and looked at Chen Kui who ran in.
He quickly asked, "Chen Kui, what's wrong? What happened?"
Could it be that Chen Kangren sent people to the mass grave and discovered what they had hidden underground?
If that's the case, then they're likely to suffer a significant loss.
At this moment, Chen Donglian and the rest of the Fang family who heard the sound came out and looked at Chen Kui, waiting for his reply.
Chen Kui said, his face pale, “Master, something terrible has happened. I just had the servants dig out more than twenty boxes, but... but those boxes were empty.”
"What? The box is empty? How is that possible?" Fang Junfeng's expression changed drastically.
This news is even more serious than what Chen Kangren discovered.
After all, if Chen Kangren had discovered it, they would have only lost half of their assets. But now, the things they buried underground have disappeared.
Chen Donglian's expression changed drastically as she asked, "Chen Kui, what nonsense are you spouting? How could this be empty? Could it be that you and those lowly servants hid everything and are trying to fool us with this rubbish?"
"Let me tell you, if you dare to eat anything from the Fang family, you won't even know how you died!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Kui knelt down with a thud: "Madam, I'm innocent! I've been with Master and Madam since I was a child. Even if you gave me a thousand lives, I wouldn't dare to do such a thing!"
Fang Junfeng's face was deathly pale. He roared, "Chen Kui, tell me everything that happened!"
Chen Kui knelt down and said, "Master, as you instructed, after dark I led people to the northeast corner of the mass grave to dig. After we dug up more than twenty boxes, that little Deng suddenly said that the boxes he dug up were very light, as if they were empty. Then the other servants also chimed in, saying that these boxes were very light."
"I didn't believe in superstitions, so I just picked one up and it was indeed as light as a servant's. So I took out my key, opened one of the boxes, and tore off the seal."
"When we opened it, it was completely empty; there was nothing inside!"
"I was terrified at the time, so I opened all the other boxes, and without exception, they were all empty, with nothing inside."
"However, what is puzzling is that the seal and lock are still there, and there are no signs of them being torn open."
Upon hearing Chen Kui's words, Fang Junfeng's expression turned even more unpleasant.
More than twenty boxes, all empty?
Does that mean all the gold and silver treasures he buried back then are gone?
Lost?
You should know that this is the accumulation of the Fang family over hundreds of years.
But now it's lost?
and.
If what Chen Kui said is true, then these things were replaced before he buried them.
Just thinking about this.
He suddenly looked at Chen Donglian.
Chen Donglian felt Fang Junfeng's gaze. She was startled at first, but then she realized something and quickly said, "Junfeng, why are you looking at me? Back then, my dad led people to bury all those things. He didn't keep a single thing for himself."
I swear!
Fang Junfeng snorted: "That had to be for the best, otherwise..."
Speaking of which...
Fang Junfeng said directly to Chen Kui, "Let's go, I'll go with you now and see what's going on."
"Junfeng, are you going out? What if you get..." Chen Donglian's words were cut short by Fang Junfeng's fierce glare: "Now that our Fang family's assets are gone, do you think I'm afraid of that bastard finding out?"
