Chapter 216: Black eats black? Robbed the Cheng family!
The semicircle made of dead branches was very obvious. Agou saw it when he was about to reach the edge of the mass grave. He faced the way they came and waited for people to come, while Gu Tang hid aside and waited for his chance to act.
She took out the other five modified poison gas bombs and placed them at her feet so that she could provide support at any time if anything happened.
After a while, the group of men in the distance quickly came over.
As soon as the two sides met, Agou breathed a sigh of relief. Although there were more people on the opposite side, their auras were mixed and their footsteps were light. Their skills should be average and there were no masters among them.
Agou breathed a sigh of relief, but the Cheng family guards on the opposite side were all worried.
They had never seen a gas mask before, and when they first saw it, they all gasped. In this mass grave, he was wearing a ghost-like mask. Was he trying to pretend to be a ghost and scare people?
The leading guard calmed down and asked, "Brother, are you the messenger who sells incense?"
"Come with me." Agou didn't reply to him, but asked the person to follow him.
When the other party heard this, he knew that he had found the right person.
Everyone followed Agou not far away, and unknowingly came into the semicircular trap set up by Gu Tang in advance.
When they got to the trap, Ah Gou spoke again: "Did you bring the silver?"
"Where's the sacred incense? We need to see the incense first."
Agou paused and said, he didn’t have any incense, his master didn’t give it to him.
When everyone saw that he didn't say anything, they thought he was arrogant and wanted to see the silver first and then the incense.
The leading guard took out a purse from his pocket and threw it at Agou's feet: "There are 30,000 taels of silver in it..."
"I want cash, not banknotes." Agou kept remembering what Gu Tang said before.
"You made an appointment too urgently. The Cheng family doesn't have time to gather the cash, and the same goes for the banknotes."
"Only cash."
fraud!
Agou pursed his lips. After delivering the letter, he took a stroll around the Cheng family's warehouse. Let alone 30,000 taels of silver, the Cheng family could even come up with 100,000 taels of silver!
"Silver notes are also silver. What's the difference between them and cash?"
The difference? He didn't know, he knew his master wanted cash.
Ah Gou held on to the cash tightly and said, "I only want cash, not banknotes!"
The leading security guard ran out of patience, a sinister look flashed across his face, he turned around to look at the thugs behind him and signaled them to take action.
If you don't accept my toast, you will be punished!
Want to take money from the Cheng family? That's something you wouldn't even dare to dream of!
The thugs quickly surrounded Agou and forced him to hand over the sacred incense.
Gu Tang, who was hiding not far away, looked at the scene in a daze. Black robbing black?
Good, good, good! The thief has come to her head!
In that case, she won’t have to show mercy when she robs the Cheng family later!
Gu Tang stretched out his hand and made a gesture to retreat, signaling Agou to step back.
Not far behind Agou was the drawstring of the poison gas bomb on the ground. He retreated to the side of the drawstring and pulled it with his foot. A series of "ding ding ding..." sounds immediately rang in his ears.
The sound was so soft that only Agou heard it.
With the "ding ding ding" sound, the next moment, five streams of white smoke quickly gushed upward from the ground and quickly spread outward.
At the moment the poisonous gas gushed out, Agou immediately jumped away, leaving all the Cheng family guards and thugs in the smoke.
The Cheng family's security guards and thugs soon became full of lies, like headless flies in the smoke, looking for a way out while cursing Agou.
"You despicable brat! Just wait... cough cough cough! When we get back, the Cheng family won't let you go!"
"Ahem! Boy! It's not too late for you to admit your mistake now! Otherwise, I'll skin you alive!"
"That's right! Ahem! Get out of here quickly!"
…
After cursing for a while, the group of people soon fell silent and lay on the ground in a mess.
Gu Tang took back the poison gas bomb at his feet and slowly moved closer.
These white smokes are all hallucinogens. After being sprayed into the air, they quickly turn colorless.
Although it had turned colorless, the effect was the same. Gu Tang touched the gas mask and made sure it was properly put on before he dared to go towards them.
Agou also came back here. He picked up the purse on the ground, opened it, and took out a roll of something.
The purse contained a thick stack of paper, which looked like banknotes at first glance, but if you looked closely, you would find that the words and seals on the banknotes were wrong.
The bank's name was not written on the banknote, and the seal was not a name stamp, but some scribbles.
"This is fake, right?" Gu Tang took a deep breath, anger boiling.
Agou nodded: "It's fake."
"Search them!" Gu Tang gritted his teeth, squatted down and began to search the corpses!
These people were all raised by the Cheng family, and they should have valuable items on them.
Agou helped in the search without hesitation and quickly stripped all the men naked, leaving only their underwear on their bodies.
The total amount of money earned by more than a dozen people was less than fifty taels. Gu Tang was so angry that he kicked them one by one and asked Agou to throw their clothes into the locust tree forest.
You can tell at first glance that these people are not good people. They have relied on the Cheng family to cause harm to others. It’s better to just freeze these bastards to death!
Agou had no objection. He went back and forth twice and threw all the people's clothes into the locust tree forest.
After throwing away the clothes, Gu Tang dug out all the discarded poison gas bombs with a cold face and recycled them, and then took Agou back to the city.
Back in the courtyard, she took out all the gas bombs and hallucinogens, taught Agou how to replace the gas device inside the gas bombs, and told him to do it slowly. She then started to sign in with a pile of replaced gas bombs.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing today's sign-in! Received a box of psychedelic smoke bombs! ]
Psychedelic smoke bomb?
Gu Tang put down the poison gas bomb in his arms and took out the newly obtained box from his backpack.
The box was a black iron box, very heavy. I put it on the table and opened it, revealing a round black ball the size of a palm.
There was also an instruction manual in the box. Gu Tang read it carefully and saw that it said: Psychedelic smoke bomb, containing one hundred units of hallucinogen. Pull the pull ring and throw it into the crowd. It can knock out everyone within a thousand square meters within ten seconds.
This is good, the damage is fast and wide.
I counted them one by one, there are thirty in a box, which should be enough.
She handed the instructions to Agou: "Take a good look at them and use them tonight."
Agou put down the work in his hands, read the instructions carefully, and memorized every word on it in his mind.
With the psychedelic smoke bombs and their modified poison gas bombs, Gu Tang was very confident and was ready to attack at night.
As time passed, night fell quickly.
Gu Tang waited patiently until midnight before taking Agou to Cheng's house.
At this hour in the Cheng household, the masters had already turned off the lights and gone to bed, and the maids and servants, except for those on night watch and patrol, had also left early.
Agou climbed over the wall and entered Cheng's house by himself. He knocked out all the servants guarding the door with hallucinogens, and then opened the door to let Gu Tang in.
After Gu Tang came in, he threw a gas mask to Agou, put one on himself, and asked Agou to knock out all the servants and guards who were patrolling at night.
After knocking down the night patrolman, the two men found the Cheng family's warehouse. Agou broke the iron lock on it and opened the door of the warehouse.
The two of them whispered a few words and decided that Gu Tang would stay in the warehouse to load things into the system backpack, while Agou would carry a basket of poison gas bombs and psychedelic smoke bombs to throw for fun.
Strive to charm everyone in the Cheng family.
After receiving the task, Agou quickly disappeared into the night, leaving Gu Tang alone in the dark warehouse.
Gu Tang was not afraid at all. There was no one in the warehouse. Everyone was bewitched by them.
Light the torch with confidence and walk inside holding it.
This warehouse should be the public warehouse of the Cheng family. It is not like the private warehouse of the masters. There are many household utensils, antiques, etc. in it, all of which have the word "Cheng" printed on them.
She did not touch any of these. Her target was silver and gold. These things with marks on them were difficult to remove. Only silver and gold were the easiest to deal with. Once the fire started, all the marks would be burned away.
After strolling around the warehouse, Gu Tang found many boxes, big and small, at the innermost part.
Putting the torch aside, she took out a crowbar from her system backpack and began to pry open the boxes one by one.
The first box was a large box as tall as a person. After prying it open, it was found to be filled with silks and satins.
Gu Tang didn't move and continued to change the next box.
The next box was at the height of Gu Tang’s thigh. After prying it open, it was full of silver ingots!
Gu Tang smiled and took them all without hesitation.
In this way, she kept prying open the boxes one by one.
Soon, all the boxes of varying sizes in the warehouse were pried open. Gu Tang's hands were shaking from exhaustion, but his spirit was extremely excited.
There are about 200 boxes of various sizes, and 40 boxes filled with cloth and jewelry. These cannot be accepted. Firstly, they cannot be worn, and secondly, they cannot be sold. Once checked, one will be sure!
There are thirty boxes filled with various leathers, all of which are large boxes as tall as a person. This one can be collected.
There were 20 boxes of precious medicinal materials and 20 boxes of precious supplements, both of which were as tall as a person. They were both fine, I took them all!
There were also various gemstones and other items, ten boxes half a person's height, all of which were unpolished and uncarved. Gu Tang flipped through them and found no prints on them, so he took them away as well.
The remaining eighty boxes, each one was half a person's height, and they were all filled with gold and silver!
Gu Tang was stunned when he pried it open!
The Cheng family is too rich!
Jiang sighed a few times, and soon she realized something was wrong.
These boxes of gold and silver are different.
There were fifteen plain black chests, thirteen of which were filled with silver and two with gold.
There were thirty red-lacquered embossed boxes, half filled with gold and half filled with silver.
There were the most boxes made of colorless wood, thirty-five in total, thirty of which were filled with gold and five with silver.
At first she thought that there were not enough boxes of the same kind, so the Cheng family bought two new ones. But when she looked them over carefully, she found some marks and words on the boxes.
The black lacquered plain box had the same color “Cheng” carved on its lid. The box with the red flag relief also had the same color “Chen” carved on its lid.
The colorless wooden box has a "white" word engraved on the side. If you don't look closely, you would think it is the grain of the wood.
Gu Tang touched the word "white" and had some guesses in his mind. The box engraved with the words "cold" and "white" should not belong to the Cheng family. Similarly, the gold and silver inside it did not belong to the Cheng family.
As for why it was placed in the Cheng family, I don’t know.
But no matter whose family it belongs to, now that she has found it, it is hers.
Gu Tang waved her hand and took away all the gold and silver.
At this point, the warehouse was completely looted.
Gu Tang came out holding a torch and waited for Agou to come back at the door.
After waiting for about half an hour, Agou came back with an empty backpack.
"Done?" Gu Tang asked impatiently.
"It's done. Even if we beat drums and gongs here now, they won't wake up."
"Well done!" Gu Tang was very satisfied. He praised him seldom and pulled him to continue looting.
"Which courtyard does Old Madam Cheng live in? She has been the head of the family for decades, so she must be extremely wealthy... And the masters, ladies and young ladies in her courtyard all have their own private houses. Let's go for a walk!"
Agou followed her instructions and first took her to the main courtyard where Old Lady Cheng lived. After searching around, he went to other courtyards one by one, from near to far.
During this period, they did not forget to recycle the poison gas bomb shells and psychedelic smoke bomb shells to ensure that no loopholes would be left.
By the time they had completely swept the Cheng family, it was already the end of the Yin hour.
It's time to go back now. If we delay a little longer, we will see manure trucks on the road.
The master and the servant came out of the side door of Cheng's house with confidence. Gu Tang also asked Agou to climb over the wall and lock the door again to prevent anyone from entering.
The Cheng family members who were drugged by hallucinogens should have to sleep for a whole day.
If the Cheng family had no visitors today, they should wake up one after another in the evening.
If there are visitors... Tsk! That would be a lively place!
Gu Tang thought maliciously, humming a little tune all the way, and the lantern in his hand swung back and forth.
Agou looked at the lantern in her hand with concern. If she continued to shake it like that, the candle in the lantern would burn it.
Sure enough, when they were almost at the courtyard, Gu Tang lost control of his hands and swung a little harder, causing the flames to burn the flammable lantern paper, which instantly caught fire!
Gu Tang was caught off guard and got startled, and immediately threw the lantern away.
Agou stepped on it and put out the fire.
The candle in the lantern was still usable. He picked it up, lit it with a tinder, and handed it to Gu Tang again.
"It's okay, it's okay. We still have lanterns at home." Gu Tang took the candle and was in a good mood. He was not affected by the lantern incident.
When she returned to the yard, her excitement gradually faded away as she remembered that she had not yet arranged a house for Agou.
The backyard belongs to her. Only her father and Gu Ping'an live in the second courtyard. The west wing is still empty, and she can find a room for him to live in.
In addition to arranging the room, you also need to prepare bedding for him.
There were beddings in the system backpack that he had obtained by signing in previously. Gu Tang was stingy and was reluctant to give it to him, so he gave him the bedding that he had replaced previously.
They were all washed clean and kept in the system backpack. She originally wanted to find a chance to throw them away, but she was afraid that her father would be angry after knowing it, so she simply left them in the system backpack and ignored them.
