Chapter 33 Smart Cat
Zi Shi never thought that one day a kitten would lead him to unlock the secret room mechanism and enter the secret room.
The switch to open the secret room is a wooden stake, but pressing the side reveals a circle of gear holes.
The stone door opened with a scratch of the prince's beloved cat.
With Zi Shi's joining, Yun Fu had nothing to worry about and ran wildly in the secret passage.
Zishi was afraid that there might be other traps inside, so he followed Ah Fu closely.
Perhaps the bandits didn't have that ability, or perhaps they were confident enough that no one could get in here.
Except for the stone door with a mechanism at the entrance, the secret passage leading directly to the secret room is unobstructed.
Yun Fu ran wildly in the slightly narrow secret passage for a while, and suddenly entered a wide place, but it was a little dark.
A cat's night vision plays a big role.
Yun Fu was shocked to see that the surroundings were filled with sacks of grain.
The neatly stacked bags look like city walls.
Zishi took out a lighter from his pocket and lit the oil lamp on the wall.
Soon the entire secret room filled with food appeared before his eyes.
Yun Fu saw more clearly, and the cat was stunned by the sight of so much food.
Zishi's pupils also shrank, and he quickly reacted and hurriedly checked to collect clues.
There was a cinnabar seal on the bottom of the bag of grain.
Zishi immediately confirmed that the food in this secret room was disaster relief food distributed by the imperial court. Judging from the number, it can be roughly determined that two-thirds of the food exchanged by the rebels was here.
This secret room is equivalent to a small granary.
"Meow~" Here here~
Yun Fu saw an exquisite mechanical lock and tried to fiddle with it, imitating her third senior sister's technique. Although her claws were a little inflexible and she wasted some strength, she still managed to open the locked box.
When Zishi heard the cat's meow, he immediately dodged over and saw a strange-looking lock being opened.
Looking at the furry kitten sitting next to the box, Zishi's heart couldn't help but be moved. It seemed that the prince's cat had really become a spirit.
He squatted down, his movements a little stiff, and touched its little head.
"Afu, very...amazing."
Perhaps he had never praised anyone, let alone a cat, so Zi Shi's praise sounded a little unnatural.
Yun Fu held her head high, looking proud and arrogant. She was only averagely powerful, right?
If Wei Rong was here at this moment, Yun Fu would have been picked up and beaten up.
Zi Shi did not delay and opened the box, which contained a stack of signed grain and fodder receipt account books.
The signature is Zhou Zhaofeng.
Zi Shi knew that this man was the son-in-law of King Cheng and was serving as the prefect of Yangzhou in Ling.
Seeing these, it can be basically confirmed that this is the disaster relief grain storage base that King Cheng replaced.
Including the relief grain looted by Marquis Wu'an, almost all the relief grain issued by the court has been found.
When the master first saw Wu Ke in the tavern, he noticed that something was wrong with him and wanted to use his strength to fight him and see what he would do.
When they encountered bandits, they originally thought they were ordinary bandits and they were just trying to rob them of their food. However, after years of living on the edge of a knife, he and Shen Shi immediately realized that these bandits were not simple.
And now, the replaced relief grain was actually hidden in a bandit's den. If it weren't for the cat in front of them, they might have missed such a secret mechanism. Even if they found it later, it would still take some effort.
He put the account book away in the box, looked at the chubby and cute cat in front of him, and softened his voice a little, "Master is right, you are his lucky star."
This was the second time Zishi praised her. Yun Fu knew that the man in front of her was a pure taciturn person. When he was with Wei Rong, he would never say more than slap her in the face when she heard him speak.
And now, he praised her twice at once, and the words he uttered almost caught up with the amount he had said in several months.
Yun Fu became even more arrogant. As expected, no one could escape her charm and they all fell under her cat claws.
On the other side, Wei Rong sat on a tiger-skin seat in the lobby of Tufeng Village, looking at the bandit leaders who had been tied up like dumplings below, his eyes as indifferent as snow.
Wu Ke could never have imagined that the leaders of their Tufeng Village would be plotted against by the pretty boy in front of him and the seemingly incapable housekeeper! !
"Who the hell are you?!"
Wu Da's eyes were filled with panic and tension. Tufeng Village was related to the prince's plan. If something went wrong here, he would have more than ten heads to chop off.
Wei Rong didn't have much patience at this time, as he was worried that he hadn't found the bad cat for such a long time.
I originally wanted to have some fun with these idiots, but now I don’t have the mood for that at all.
"I should be the one asking you this. You're not just ordinary bandits, are you?"
Wei Rong stood up from the tiger-skin chair and walked step by step to Wu Da.
Wu Da said nothing, just looked at the unattractive man in front of him with hatred.
They were not ordinary bandits, and the man before them was certainly not an ordinary merchant son.
Perhaps they fell into this person's trap from the very beginning.
Wu Ke couldn't believe that he was being tricked.
The bird hunter became a bird in a cage, which was a little hard to accept for Wu Ke, who had deceived so many people, especially since this person was so ignorant from the beginning... No!
Now this man no longer looks as arrogant, domineering and ignorant as he did in the bar and on the street.
His behavior and personality are all fake!
Thinking of this, Wu Ke looked at his elder brother with a face full of horror.
Wu Da was also sweating profusely at this time, and he only hoped that the person in front of him was a scheming businessman, and not... someone above him.
"Sir, what do you want? As long as our Tufeng Village has it, we will give it to you with both hands!"
Wu Ke heard his eldest brother's words and quickly responded, "Sir, I am sorry for being blind and offending you. We have stolen a lot of jewels and are offering them all to you! Please spare our lives. We were forced to become bandits."
Seeing the two bosses say this, the others quickly followed suit.
Wei Rong seemed to be deaf to their goodwill. He pulled out a big knife from the weapon wall beside him and walked towards them step by step.
The few people who had originally begged for mercy immediately booed.
The man had an ordinary face, but the coldness in his demeanor made Wu Da and the others shudder.
The man gently held the sword weighing dozens of kilograms in his hand and placed it on Wu Da's neck.
Just when Wu Da thought he was about to face off, the collar of his clothes was lifted.
The cold blade pressed against his skin, giving Wu Da a chill.
On the shoulder of the torn clothes, there was a black mark with the word "criminal" printed on it.
The scar that has penetrated deep into the flesh cannot be removed even by peeling off a layer of skin.
"An old prisoner of Chenghejun, quite interesting."
When they heard the words "Cheng" and "Jun", Wu Da and Wu Ke's faces changed at the same time.
The other bandits looked confused.
"Chenghe Army? What Chenghe Army?"
Just then, a meowing sound was heard outside.
