The people in Daming Prefecture who followed them were all stunned.
Who would have thought that even the women in this group were so tough, making them seem a bit out of place.
After a brief moment of hesitation, he took out his farm tools and joined the battle.
They thought clearly that although this group of people were ferocious, the bandits had all seen blood.
If I lose the battle, I'm afraid I will die.
In this way, the situation was quickly brought under control and all the bandits at the scene were killed except one.
After Ling Jiheng learned the location of their stronghold and the number of people in it, he quickly dealt with them without even listening to their pleas for mercy.
But he did not completely believe the other party's words. After discussing with Zhou Changsong, he took Ling San, Ling Si, and Chi Xingyue to the mountain stronghold.
No one understood why the second young master of the Ling family brought a woman with him when he was doing serious business.
Even Ling San and Ling Si couldn't figure it out, but they didn't dare to ask.
Seeing that people were walking away, Zhou Changsong hurriedly asked everyone to bury the bodies to prevent them from being discovered and causing future troubles.
Then a group of people took a small path and hid in the mountains, waiting for Ling Jiheng to deal with the remnants on the mountain, and then came down to pick them up the mountain, or leave this place.
The two sides acted separately, seemingly chaotically, but in an orderly manner.
Ling Jiheng and Chi Xingyue rode on a big red horse, galloping along the mountain road. Ling San and Ling Si, who were following behind, were almost vomiting blood.
After much difficulty, they finally arrived at the place indicated by the little leader in the evening. Ling Jiheng tied his horse to a tree from a long distance away.
He asked the two to go and investigate, while he and Chi Xingyue went around to the back of the stronghold.
I was surprised to see a vegetable patch here, but it didn't matter, it was all theirs.
The two continued walking, but found that someone was sneaking towards the next hill.
Out of curiosity, I followed them and found that there was a mine here, and there was a clanging sound in the cave.
Chi Xingyue blinked her big eyes, feeling that it was a little unbelievable.
You said the first time you discovered hematite, it was a coincidence. But what about now? Is it fate?
The two did not move forward rashly. Ling Jiheng asked Chi Xingyue to hide in the woods, while he took the medicine powder prepared by Doctor Cheng and smeared it on the food, catching a nest of mice.
Then he came back, tied a pill that could cause coma under the mice's necks, and drove them into the hole.
There are more than ten of them released at once. If you don’t believe in the medicine, don’t check the people inside!
After a moment, there was a cry of surprise from inside, but within two seconds, there was a thud.
The tinkling sound stopped, and the two men stayed cautiously at the entrance of the cave without moving.
About a cup of tea later, two people rushed out from inside, stumbling and looking terrified.
Ling Jiheng didn't hesitate. He knocked the man unconscious, gagged him, and tied his hands and feet with ropes.
After waiting for a while and making sure that no one came out, she covered her face with a veil and walked into the cave with Chi Xingyue.
At first, the cave was pitch black, and the two men moved slowly along the mountain wall.
Slowly, the inside became larger and larger, until at the back, torches illuminated the entire cave.
Ling Jiheng asked Chi Xingyue to hide in the shadows and return to the fairyland immediately if there was any danger.
He held the pill in his left hand and the knife in his right hand, bent his body, and walked towards the cave with many exits.
Chi Xingyue's heart was in his throat, and he didn't understand why he always encountered these things.
He was planning to be a nobody, but accidentally he found out other people's secrets.
About half an hour later, Ling Jiheng came out of the cave.
His clothes were disheveled and there were obvious bloodstains, which showed that he had been in a fierce fight with someone.
"Are you injured?" Chi Xingyue held him in fear and was about to take out medicine from the space.
Ling Jiheng raised his hand to stop him: "Follow me in first!"
Chi Xingyue understood that this was a good discovery, and was worried that something might go wrong if he delayed.
He took out a pot of spiritual spring water and let him drink it, then quickly followed him and ran towards the cave where the treasure was hidden.
After investigation, the two found their purpose clear and soon arrived at the treasure room.
The treasure here is nothing but boxes of gold.
Although its purity was not as high as that of later generations, it was still gold after all. Against the backdrop of the firelight, it looked extremely beautiful. It almost blinded Chi Xingyue.
Chi Xingyue then understood why the man had been sneaking around in his territory.
It turns out there's a gold mine hidden here, so we have to be careful. After all, mining gold illegally is a serious crime that could lead to the confiscation of property and extermination of the entire family.
Chi Xingyue was overjoyed after storing the refined gold into the space.
Who could have imagined that after she traveled through time, her wealth would increase exponentially, almost enough to fill several bank vaults!
The depression of the past few days has completely dissipated, and I am looking forward to being reborn into the wonderful life of the 1970s and 1980s with these boxes of gold after my soul is bound to the space!
However, the search did not end there, as there was still gold ore that had just been knocked out in several other caves.
Chi Xingyue put everything into the space one by one, and it took an hour for them to come out.
Looking at the bright moon in the sky, Chi Xingyue asked in a hypocritical tone, "Even though these things were mined illegally, it would be bad if we took them away without permission, right?"
In fact, she wanted to get Ling Jiheng's comfort so that she could feel better about her conscience.
Chi Xingyue felt that her moral standards had been declining since she came to the Dayong Dynasty.
Loot the prince's mansion, plunder the mines, kill wolves and chop people, don't be too skilled at it!
She is getting more and more tortured!
It is gratifying that Chi Xingyue has never harmed the property or lives of innocent passers-by, which shows that he has a bottom line.
Ling Jiheng, however, didn't take it seriously, his voice still a bit cold: "If these were mined by the Third Prince, would you still feel guilty?"
Chi Xingyue's eyes lit up, and he stood up straight and replied, "Of course not. I still regret not being able to empty the Third Prince's Mansion."
After saying that, he moved closer to Ling Jiheng and winked at him desperately: "Are you serious? Is this really the Third Prince's lair?"
Ling Jiheng nodded and asked Chi Xingyue to look at the seal on the box to see if there was a "wen" character engraved on the back.
Chi Xingyue couldn't control the box in the space with his consciousness, but after checking, there was no problem.
Sure enough, there was a small word "wen" in the hidden place, which was confirmed.
Chi Xingyue nodded, looking even more excited.
Completely unaware, Ling Jiheng almost beat a miner to death in order to obtain information about the gold mine.
Of course, it was also because that person attacked him from behind and stabbed him.
However, after being interrogated, he no longer had any mercy.
This was originally a village. In order to get the secret gold mine mentioned by the third prince's wife, the third prince not only sent people to massacre the entire village, but also sent people to rob people on the road.
The looted supplies were divided fifty-fifty, with some left for the stronghold and some sent to Shangjing.
The local officials were also the Third Prince's men. The two groups colluded with each other and cheated many businessmen.
People only know that there is a group of bandits on this road, but they don’t know that this group of people are the running dogs and money bags of the Third Prince.
