A man in armor strode into the house.
He looked around the courtyard and came to the ancient well. He leaned out and looked down.
Jing Yi and Su Xiaoxiao had already entered a secret passage at the side. The bottom of the well was empty.
He retracted his gaze and arranged for his subordinates to protect the small courtyard tightly.
Su Xiaoxiao and Jing Yi crawled along the low secret passage for about a dozen steps before finally entering another wide and big secret passage.
The two of them straightened up.
Su Xiaoxiao patted the dust off her hands and body and said seriously, “The well entrance was too small just now! Look, didn’t I climb through this secret passage?”
JingYi nodded. “Yes, I was almost stuck just now.”
Su Xiaoxiao widened her eyes and revealed a like-minded smile. “Right? The White Lotus Society is so stingy. They can’t even bear to dig a bigger well!
Forget it, forget it. Let’s tind gold!”
The tunnel here was winding. After searching for a long time, she did not find any gold. However, she heard a low cough.
Jing Yi became vigilant and protected Su Xiaoxiao behind him. “There’s someone.”
Su Xiaoxiao heard it too.
Jing Yi said, “I’ll go take a look first. Wait for me here.”
“Alright, be careful.”
“Yeah.”
Jing Yi slowly walked over, pulled out the sword at his waist, and used the tip of the sword to pry open a closed wooden door.
The intermittent cough could be heard clearly.
Jing Yi walked over and looked in under the light of the match. He said in surprise, “Your Second Highness?”
Su Xiaoxiao realized who it was. “Oh, Xiao Shunyang?”
“There’s no danger.” Jing Yi came out and said to Su Xiaoxiao.
Su Xiaoxiao walked in.
This was like another small cellar, but it was very dark and narrow.
Su Xiaoxiao held the oil lamp she had taken from the wall and looked at Xiao Shunyang’s face.
Xiao Shunyang was tied up with a cloth in his mouth. He sat with his back facing the wall and was about to suffocate.
He looked at Su Xiaoxiao and Jing Yi, who had appeared out of thin air, in a daze. He didn’t expect them to appear here.
Su Xiaoxiao took off the cloth from his mouth, but she didn’t untie him immediately.
Su Xiaoxiao was a little suspicious of the Second Prince. The last time they returned to the capital from the Dragon Temple, they were ambushed by the White Lotus Society.
Originally, everything was under control. It was Xiao Shunyang’s horse that was suddenly frightened and messed up their formation which gave the White Lotus Society a chance.
Could this be a simple accident?
Xiao Shunyang’s martial arts were not inferior to Xiao Duye’s. Xiao Duye was not captured, but he was.
“Were you arrested by the White Lotus Society?” Su Xiaoxiao asked.
Xiao Shunyang looked at Su Xiaoxiao in disbelief. “If it’s not the White Lotus
Society, could it be that someone else can capture me here?”
Su Xiaoxiao continued, ‘Why did they arrest you?”
“Because I was discovered?” Xiao Shunyang looked at Su Xiaoxiao speechlessly. “Is there anyone who broke into the White Lotus Society’s territory who wasn’t caught?”
Su Xiaoxiao and Jing Yi looked at him expressionlessly.
Xiao Shunyang was rendered speechless again.
Could it be that she was too suspicious? Did Xiao Shunyang indeed have an accident that time? Did he have nothing to do with the White Lotus Society?
Otherwise, it would be difficult to explain why the White Lotus Society had captured him.
It shouldn’t be an act. The White Lotus Society couldn’t guess that she and Jing Yi would come to dig for gold.
“Ahem!” Xiao Shunyang coughed a few more times in pain. “I almost fell into the Corpse Dissolving Water just now and finally escaped, but I seem to have…
been poisoned.”
Su Xiaoxiao took out her flashlight and checked his pupils and nails.
“What are you…” Xiao Shunyang wanted to ask what she was holding. Why was it so dazzling?
“Don’t speak. Open your mouth.” Su Xiaoxiao looked at his tongue and throat
again.
In the end, combined with his pulse, Su Xiaoxiao roughly deduced what the Corpse Dissolving Water they were talking about was.
It should be some strong acid that was extremely corrosive. Its gas was also poisonous. If one inhaled too much, it would cause swelling pain in the throat, respiratory mucosa, and lungs.
Su Xiaoxiao instructed, “Jing Yi, if you encounter the Corpse Dissolving Water, use your qinggong to pass by from a high place.”
Jing Yibao nodded.
Su Xiaoxiao said, “He won’t die for a while. Let’s finish our business first.”
Xiao Shunyang asked, “Are you looking for the White Lotus Society’s treasury?
Su Xiaoxiao was alarmed.
Xiao Shunyang closed his eyes and said, “It’s just ahead. There’s a protruding mechanism at the height of half a person. Be careful.”
Would Xiao Shunyang be so kind?
As if guessing Su Xiaoxiao’s doubts, Xiao Shunyang leaned against the wall weakly and said, “Take as much as you can. I won’t tell Father. Just bring me out in the end.’
Ah, so he felt that the two of them could not take much.
That was true. A little gold from the White Lotus Society in exchange for his life was definitely a good deal. Xiao Shunyang was more business-minded than the Eldest Prince.
Unfortunately, Xiao Shunyang did not expect her to have a base pharmacy.
Not to mention the gold of the White Lotus Society, she could even take away all the sand in the cellar!
The two of them arrived at the cellar where the gold was stored. They followed Xiao Shunyang’s reminder and avoided the mechanism on the wall.
Su Xiaoxiao asked Jing Yi to guard outside and closed the stone door from inside.
There were 60 to 70 boxes of gold bars.
“This is at least 100,000 taels of gold, right?”
Perhaps it was more than that. After all, gold was dense.
Su Xiaoxiao moved boxes into the pharmacy.
Fortunately, she was a strong little fatty. Otherwise, how could she move so many boxes of gold?
Su Xiaoxiao was exhausted.
About 15 minutes later, she appeared in front of Xiao Shunyang, panting.
“You’re mistaken. There’s no gold in that cellar… If you don’t believe me, go see for yourself…”
Jing Yi untied Xiao Shunyang.
Xiao Shunyang went to the cellar where the gold was placed skeptically. It was empty. Not to mention gold, there was not even a copper coin!
He looked at Jing Yi and Su Xiaoxiao.
Su Xiaoxiao said righteously, “We don’t have it on us. If you don’t believe me, search!”
How could she hide such a big room of gold?
Xiao Shunyang frowned. “Then, why were you gone for so long just now?”
Su Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows. “Are you suspecting that we moved the gold elsewhere? This is the White Lotus Society. Where can we move it to? How about this? Go and search. If you can find a piece of gold, I, Su Daya, will write my name upside down!”
Xiao Shunyang went to search, but he naturally could not find it.
“Hmph! I was happy for nothing!”
Su Xiaoxiao left without looking back!
Jing Yi had just taken a step when he turned around and glared at Xiao
Shunyang. “That’s right. I was happy for nothing.”
Xiao Shunyang, who had been played the blame game, was speechless.
Su Xiaoxiao had to quickly look for her father and Su Mo.
Su MO was unconscious and was taken to the woodshed. It was unknown if her father and Bai Ze had exposed themselves by guarding the door.
Su Xiaoxiao was extremely lucky tonight; it was as if she had entered the destiny circle.
Wei Ting was in trouble. Entering the forest was a mechanism formation. After passing it, he encountered Corpse Dissolving Water. Fortunately, his martial arts foundation was strong, so he passed it safely.
However, before he could catch his breath, he tragically entered the miasma forest again and encountered the swamp.
Wei Liulang secretly followed Wei Ting, his face turning green.
The last time he came in, he was not so unlucky.
It was only because the two brothers were good at martial arts. If it had been others, they would have died thousands of times.
As Wei Ting avoided the swamp pit, he said with a faint smile, “Sixth Brother, remember to step on the footprints I left behind. Don’t fall into the swamp. I was worried that you wouldn’t be able to see clearly. I placed leaves on the footprints.”
Wei Liulang thoughts were that he didn’t follow if he didn’t reply.
Wei Ting was stronger, so these dangers were nothing to him.
He smiled and said, “Sixth Brother, why don’t you lead the way? It’s too dark ahead. I’m afraid.”
Wei Liulang muttered, “You’re shameless. ”
Wei Ting was cocky and stepped into the swamp!
Wei Liulang soared into the air and used his qinggong to grab Wei Ting out of the swamp, landing on a big tree. Wei Ting smiled. “Sixth Brother, you fell for it again.”
Wei Liulang kicked Wei Ting down!
At this moment, a shocking roar suddenly came from not far ahead.
Wei Liulang’s expression changed.
Here it comes…
That monster was here…
