The light from the outside came in, not dazzling and a little dim, Xia Yu turned sideways, glanced at it, and before she could take a full look at the surrounding environment, a figure fell in front of her, and a powerful sword blade came over.

Xia Xue pulled Sheng Mingzhu to take a step back, and at the same time, Xia Yu dodged on his back, and with all his strength, he was ready to close the secret door, but he saw that the figure attacking outside suddenly took a step back and stopped attacking.

"Is that you?" Bingwu put away the sword in his hand and looked at them, a little surprised.

Hearing the familiar voice, Sheng Mingzhu also paused, "Why are you here too, where is this?" ”

The three of them jumped out of the dark passage and looked at the warehouse-like room in front of them, a little shocked.

"This is supposed to be the storehouse in their house, and we just touched it." Mu Changqing came over and said.

"There's even a secret door here."

Bingwu stepped forward and knocked twice, the wall was consistent with the surrounding mosaics, if it weren't for Sheng Mingzhu and them suddenly opening it from the inside, I was afraid that the two of them would not necessarily find anything strange here.

"Where did you come from?"

"This secret passage leads to Master Li's study, and we discovered it by accident."

"The secret passage of the study leads to the storeroom, and it seems that there should be a lot of precious things in it." Bingwu touched his chin, revealing a thoughtful expression.

Mu Changqing stood to the side, did not speak, and the expression on his face was the same.

This storehouse in the Li Mansion occupies a huge area, not in the main courtyard, but in the side courtyard, and few people pass by outside, but the family members of the Patrol Mansion will come here every once in a while, and the number of patrols is much more than in other places.

And according to their observations outside, the patrolling family members will be particularly vigilant every time they pass by here, and if something goes wrong, they will be demons.

"How did you get in?"

Sheng Mingzhu looked around, the doors and windows were closed, several windows were sealed with wooden strips, and there were no traces of destruction around, why did Mu Changqing and Bingwu seem to suddenly appear?

Bingwu smiled: "You people who came to find out the details of people, is it possible that you don't have any tools at all?" Shouldn't it be trivial to open the door and pick the lock? ”

Sheng Mingzhu glanced at Xia Xue and Xia Yu felt that they had been laughed at, they seemed to have prepared everything, and it was completely a blind cat encountering a dead mouse to be able to touch here.

"What's hidden in here?"

The storeroom is divided into two parts, and on one side there are hundreds of sacks, each of which is full.

On the other side, there are several large chests, and many jade treasures are placed on the Bogu shelves against the wall.

"What's in these bags?" Sheng Mingzhu stepped forward and tested it with his hand, but he didn't feel what was inside.

Mu Changqing shook his head, "I haven't had time to check it yet, but it seems that it should be food." ”

Sheng Mingzhu took out a dagger directly from his arms, picked an inconspicuous corner, stabbed it down, and then heard the sound of food flowing out.

"Is it really all grain?" Sheng Mingzhu pulled Mu Changqing to take a step back, not letting the gushing food bury their feet, "As the prefect of a county, Lord Li actually hid so much grain in the mansion at such a serious and critical juncture as the famine, and he is really a good parent official of the people in the county?" ”

Sheng Mingzhu was about to laugh at the scene in front of him, turned around with a dark face and went to open the box next to him, the yellow wood box was thick and strong, with a layer of faint floating dust floating on it, and it was sealed with a special copper lock below.

Sheng Mingzhu was holding back the anger in his heart, and the strength in his hand could not be controlled well, and with a click, the sound of the dagger and the copper lock striking each other frightened several of them.

The dimly lit storeroom was silent, and a pin drop could be heard.

Sheng Mingzhu's hand stopped in mid-air, and everyone remained still, and after a long time, after making sure that no one outside heard it, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Mu Changqing took the dagger from her hand, gently patted her shoulder twice with his hand, comforted her, stepped forward, bent down and aimed at the lock on the wooden box, his wrist was hard, and before others could understand, the copper lock snapped and opened.

Carefully use the tip of the knife to pick the lock open, and the blade of the knife is inserted into the sewing of the box to open it.

The dazzling jewels instantly illuminate the surroundings.

Sheng Mingzhu stepped forward and pulled it twice with his hand, and found that it was full of jewelry and silverware, all of which were worth a lot of money.

There were several similar chests in the back, and when they were opened one after another, they were all filled with precious gold and silver jewelry.

"Tsk! It's amazing, I remember that the county government is only a seven-grade official position, 60 yuan per month, 5 stone of Lusu, and he can't save such a fortune for a few lifetimes with such a little money, where did he come with so many treasures and money? ”

"The people in the entire county are so poor that they are almost finished eating the grassroots, and there is still so much food hidden in the treasury in his house, no wonder those people outside the city want to shout and return their food?"

Bingwu held the sword in his hand, and when he saw so many things, he couldn't help but feel angry in his heart, and wanted to say a few words of sarcasm.

A few people looked at so many things, you look at me, I look at you, and now there is only one expression on their faces, wanting to scold their mother.

Dog Officer!!

"Having such an official is simply a shame for the court, and he still pretends to be an honest coward." Sheng Mingzhu gritted his teeth in anger, if such a moth remains, the national foundation of the Great Zhou will be gnawed off.

"Shhhh Be quiet, there's someone outside. Sheng Mingzhu still wanted to speak, but was suddenly stopped by Mu Changqing, his wrist was grabbed, and the whole person was taken into his arms and hid behind Bo Gujia.

Xia Yu, Xia Xue, and Bingwu also found places to avoid when they heard the movement outside.

Outside, there seemed to be a dozen people coming.

"Be vigilant for me, I lost something in the kitchen just now, be careful of thieves in the house."

"Head, what's missing in the kitchen? I saw them panicking just now. ”

"What can be thrown in the kitchen, I think it's just the people in their kitchen who are guarding and stealing themselves."

"Ask these more things, what is the matter with you, give me a good patrol, my eyes are wide open, you must be careful for me these days......"

“……”

The sound of the conversation outside was getting closer and closer, but Sheng Mingzhu didn't care about anything, her breath missed a beat, and she could only hear the heartbeat in her chest.

The body is separated by heavy clothes, and it is clear that he can't touch anything, but it seems that the other party's body temperature can penetrate the clothes and iron himself.

Sheng Mingzhu stiffened and didn't dare to move, waiting for a long time before he dared to move gently.

She tilted her head sideways, leaning up slightly, and she could clearly see Mu Changqing's delicate and perfect facial contours as far as her eyes could see, her Adam's apple was staggering, her chin was firm, and her nose was filled with the smell of his body.
