"What's this?"
"I... I feel a little dizzy, a bit lightheaded?"
The question had barely left his lips when seven or eight bandits collapsed to the ground.
Jiang Wanwan pushed open the courtyard gate and quietly went inside.
After some investigation and searching, there was no one in One-Eyed Dragon's courtyard. According to the second-in-command, One-Eyed Dragon's concubines lived in other courtyards, not in the same one as him.
Now that there was no one around, Jiang Wanwan was no longer as nervous as before.
She walked toward the main house and saw that the door was locked with a large padlock.
Jiang Wanwan bought a wire from the mall. She inserted the wire into the keyhole and fiddled with it for a while. Then, the lock made a "click" sound and opened.
She pushed open the door and went inside.
Because she was wearing high-definition night vision goggles, she could see the situation inside the room even without turning on the lights.
According to the second-in-command, One-Eyed Dragon is greedy for money, like a mythical creature that only takes in and never gives out. He also has to touch and count his gold and silver jewelry every night before he can fall asleep. From this, it can be inferred that One-Eyed Dragon may have built a secret room in his house.
After all, given his cautious and avaricious nature, keeping gold and silver jewelry under his own nose was the most reassuring thing for him.
Therefore, Jiang Wanwan launched a thorough search of the one-eyed man's house.
However, after searching for most of the day, they couldn't find any secret passages or mechanisms.
Jiang Wanwan was a little puzzled. She had already searched all the other rooms in the courtyard, including the study, but had not found any secret passages or mechanisms.
Could it be that the second-in-command lied to her?
That shouldn't be the case.
Jiang Wanwan was a little deflated and plopped down on the one-eyed man's bed.
With a clang, the dagger fell from his body and landed on the bed board, which was not covered with a blanket.
Jiang Wanwan was drawn to the hollow sound. She immediately pulled back the blankets on the bed and tapped the bed frame with her fingers.
"Clang! Clang! Clang!"
Hearing a few hollow sounds, Jiang Wanwan's eyes lit up.
"No wonder I couldn't find the secret passage, it was right here!" she exclaimed excitedly.
She then explored the entire bed and finally found a movable protrusion among the several protrusions on the wooden board in front of the bed.
Jiang Wanwan grasped the protrusion and twisted it forcefully. With a "crack," the entire bed board in front of her was lifted up, revealing a pitch-black hole.
She peeked inside and saw an entrance large enough for two people to pass through side by side. Below was a spiral staircase, and the view went out of sight beyond that; she would have to go down and explore to find out.
Jiang Wanwan bought a delicate flashlight from the mall and, using its light, entered the secret passage without hesitation.
After descending the stairs and walking through a long, narrow secret passage, the view suddenly opened up ahead.
Jiang Wanwan shone a flashlight into the secret room and was almost blinded by the light.
!!
It's all gold and silver jewelry!
The gold and silver were piled up like mountains; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to describe them as mountains of gold and silver.
In addition, there are more than a dozen boxes that have not yet been opened.
With a heart full of excitement, Jiang Wanwan walked over and, with trembling hands, opened one of the boxes.
!!
Ginseng!
A ginseng root the size of a fist!
Jiang Wanwan was so shocked she couldn't close her mouth.
She didn't know the value of these ginseng roots.
Even though she doesn't know much about the products, she has an online store!
At that moment, Jiang Wanwan casually picked up a ginseng root and held it in her hand, only to hear a familiar mechanical voice in her mind.
