Hearing this, Zhang Yuanshan stopped his fierce attack and kicked Chen Shoucai to the ground with a roundhouse kick.
Upon seeing this, the Jinyiwei nearby immediately pounced on Chen Shoucai, pinned him to the ground, and twisted his hands behind his back.
"Ouch, it hurts! Be gentle, be gentle, puh puh puh..." Chen Shoucai spat out the sand in his mouth and shouted loudly.
The Jinyiwei pressed too hard, and the wound on his shoulder was tortured by the rough sand and stones, almost killing him with pain.
Zhang Yuanshan's face was full of impatience and he glared at Chen Shoucai fiercely.
After Chen Shoucai came into contact with Zhang Yuanshan's murderous gaze, he was terrified. Although his body was in unbearable pain, he could only grit his teeth and dared not make any sound.
Zhang Yuanshan winked at Jinyiwei Zhang Xiaowen, "Ah Wen, you two go in and check it out."
"Yes, sir." Zhang Xiaowen glared at Chen Shoucai, turned around and walked into the secret room.
After a while, Zhang Xiaowen came back.
"What's the matter?" Zhang Yuanshan asked.
Zhang Xiaowen bowed and said, "Sir, looking at the indentations on the ground, it is indeed as Chen Shoucai said, there were heavy objects in the secret room. And there are no messy footprints on the ground, it doesn't look like someone came in and took away the things in the secret room. It looks like...it looks like,"
He was a little hesitant.
Because Zhang Yuanshan would definitely be furious when he heard it.
"Like what?" Zhang Yuanshan asked sternly.
Zhang Xiaowen bit his lower lip and said what he had guessed, "It's like it disappeared out of thin air!"
The atmosphere suddenly froze, and the Jinyiwei looked at each other and stood there in a daze.
After speaking, Zhang Xiaowen quickly raised his eyes to see Zhang Yuanshan's reaction.
Sure enough, after hearing the news, Zhang Yuanshan became shaky and could hardly stand.
"My lord, are you all right?"
Zhang Xiaowen and other Jinyiwei wanted to rush over to support Zhang Yuanshan, but Zhang Yuanshan stroked his temple and waved his left hand, "Don't worry."
He didn't show it on his face, but in fact he was already in turmoil inside.
Damn it! Disappeared out of thin air again!
When he went to search the house, the things inside disappeared out of thin air.
Everything in the East Palace, the Prime Minister's Mansion, the Emperor's private treasury, the entire imperial palace, and the residences of various corrupt officials disappeared out of thin air.
Now it is rumored that all this is because the emperor has angered the gods, so everything has disappeared.
He and his men were originally unbelieving, but now they are beginning to waver.
Could it be that His Majesty really has angered the gods?
Otherwise, why is it that every time he was about to steal gold, silver, jewelry and other valuables, those things would always disappear out of thin air first?
Apart from gods, he couldn't think of anyone else who could do such a thing.
Zhang Xiaowen and other Jinyiwei became a little worried when they saw Zhang Yuanshan, whose expression changed several times but he didn't say a word.
"My Lord, are you all right?"
"Sir, please don't scare us, okay?"
"Sir, please take care of yourself! We still have to go back to the capital to report on our work. Please don't fall down."
"Yes, sir, the emperor is still in the capital waiting for our good news."
The words awakened Zhang Yuanshan from his dream and he came to his senses.
Yes, even if it was the gods who were causing trouble, their emperor was the True Dragon Emperor! How respected was the True Dragon Emperor? He would never believe that the True Dragon Emperor could not fight against the gods!
He only raided the homes of corrupt officials and the bandits' lairs, and left the rest to God's arrangement.
After figuring it out, Zhang Yuanshan's frustration dissipated a lot.
He raised his leg and kicked Chen Shoucai. "Get up!"
"Ouch!" Chen Shoucai frowned, unable to speak due to the pain.
Why didn't this evil Jinyiwei just chop him with his sword? Why did he specifically kick the wound on his thigh?
Chen Shoucai was dragged up from the ground by two Jinyiwei. "Sir, you believe it now, right? There were many treasures and money in the secret room, but now they are all gone. It must have been done by the witch wearing the monkey mask!"
Zhang Yuanshan glanced at him sideways, not believing Chen Shoucai's words at all. He felt that Chen Shoucai said this just because he was afraid that he would kill him.
What kind of witch is this with a monkey-faced mask? He doesn’t believe that anyone can have such extraordinary abilities.
"Hmph! Let's not talk about whether it was the secret room emptied by that witch. I have already promised you before that as long as the Jinyiwei and I can get the money and treasures, I will let you and your men go.
However, now, this secret room is empty. Several of my men are seriously injured, and I can't even find a copper coin. Come on, how can I let you go?" Zhang Yuanshan said coldly, holding the knife across Chen Shoucai's neck.
Chen Shoucai was so frightened that his heart and gallbladder broke. He could already feel the cold metal touching his neck. Moreover, there was a sharp pain in his neck.
"Sir, sir, please be patient. If you have something to say, please talk nicely and don't use force rashly!" If the two Jinyiwei hadn't been holding him up, he would have collapsed to the ground.
What should I do? What should I do? Chen Shoucai was very anxious.
He had clearly felt Zhang Yuanshan's extremely strong murderous intent, without any doubt. If he did not find a way to stabilize Zhang Yuanshan, then his life would be in danger.
But if he told it to others, the Black Wind Village, which had been built over a hundred years, would be destroyed in an instant, and he himself would become a penniless pauper.
Chen Shoucai's eyes kept flickering, hesitating whether to say it out loud.
Suddenly, the tingling sensation on his neck became more intense, and he even felt a warm stream flowing down his neck.
Oh, it’s more important to save your life.
"Sir, please wait a moment! I, I have another place where I hid the treasure. I guarantee you that no one will find that place. Even that witch will never be able to find it!" Chen Shoucai said tremblingly.
That place is actually his final secret base.
However, if he didn't tell it, Zhang Yuanshan would definitely not let him and his men go.
"Oh? Is it true?" Zhang Yuanshan looked at Chen Shoucai suspiciously.
After experiencing the secret room, Zhang Yuanshan began to doubt whether Chen Shoucai said this in order to save his own life.
"It's absolutely true! Sir, if you still escape this time, I and my men will be at your mercy! You can kill or chop us up, it's all up to you, Chen won't say a word!"
Zhang Xiaowen looked at the relaxed expression on Zhang Yuanshan's face and couldn't help feeling a little anxious.
"Sir, please don't listen to this thief. He must be stalling for time!"
