Chapter 10: Finding the Pendant
Jinbai's consent also made Hu Ruoqing and Linlu stunned for a moment.
"Thank you, thank you, Childe, Childe's great kindness, the little woman is willing to be a cow and a horse to repay Childe." Xiaoyi immediately knelt on the ground and thanked Jinbai.
"Alright, let's get better. Linlu took her to another room to take good care of her. Jin Bai pulled up his little meaning and asked Linlu to take her out.
"Jinbai, do you really want to take her?"
"It's okay, it's just a little woman, and it doesn't affect anything. But big brother, you can really stand here. As soon as he spoke, Jin Bai turned around, climbed out of the window, and went straight to the Qinglou. He'd have to find something quickly.
When Hu Ruoqing looked at it, she thought to herself that this little rabbit cub was really afraid that I would rob him. Then he also rushed to the Qinglou.
In the green building.
Jin Bai climbed over the wall from the backyard. He went to the second floor and found a sign with the girl's name on each door. There was only one room with nothing on the door.
Jin Bai pushed open the door and found that the house was unusually clean, and there was nothing in the room except a bed, a table, and a few ornaments on a cabinet.
Jin Bai came to the cabinet, lightly touched one of the ornaments, and immediately shot several arrows from both sides of the bed, he rose into the air and grabbed the tail of the arrow, and the arrows were coated with poison.
In this room, no matter which one you touch, there are mechanisms. Jin Bai thought to himself, could it be that the things are in this room. Jin Bai avoided all the traps and finally found the trap under the table, and when he entered the chamber, he found nothing.
Could this room be just a façade?
Backyard.
Hu Ruoqing followed Jin Bai into the backyard, but he didn't go upstairs, but continued to look in the backyard. When he was looking for the green building, he would find that things should be hidden in a hidden place like the backyard.
The backyard is basically a place where maids and miscellaneous workers live. Now, the evening is the time when the front hall is lively, and they can rest for a while.
Hu Ruoqing carefully dodged, and he found that a firewood room was still locked. He pulled a filament out of his bosom and pried the door open in a few clicks. There doesn't seem to be anything strange about this firewood room, these piles of new firewood are piled up inside, but the weather is not cold, what to do with so many new firewood, after Hu Ruoqing moved the firewood, he found that the soil on the ground was different from other places.
When he brushed the earth away with his hands, he saw cracks in the ground. When the crack is opened, there is a flight of stairs that leads to the ground. Hu Ruoqing walked down, and inside he found the pendant and more treasures.
He didn't take the pendant, but put it all away, pretending that no one had come in. He thought, Jinbai should find this place soon.
When he was about to go to the front hall, Jin Bai also came to the backyard.
"Big brother, did you find it?"
"No, this old woman Shanhua doesn't know where she hid her things, and I'm about to arrest her and ask her." Hu Ruoqing said and was about to go to the front hall.
"Hey, big brother, have you found the backyard?"
"I didn't look for it, the backyard is full of places where a bunch of old women live, who can hide the treasure." After Hu Ruoqing finished speaking, he left, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Hey, silly boy, although you are strong in martial arts, you still lack the acumen as a thief, it seems that I still have to give you a good lesson, otherwise how can you live as the master of this faction. He smiled and shook his head, and went to the antechamber for a drink.
Of course, Jin Bai found the pendant as expected by Hu Ruoqing. He seems to understand something, the eldest brother still deliberately let him, it seems that he is still not strong enough.
Inn.
"Childe, you're back. Did you find something? ”
"Well, I found it." Jin Bai took out a box from his cuff and placed it on the table.
Xiao Yi, who was standing at the door, looked at all this and smiled proudly. Do you think you found it, I took the pendant out of that room and put it in the firewood room where Shanhua kept her jewels. This gilt necklace pendant is not an ordinary treasure, it was specially placed in Yihong Mansion by Governor Fang, and now that the thing is gone, I will see how she Shanhua explains.
Xiaoyi didn't know that she had hurt Sister Cai Wei by doing this.
In the Green Building.
It's late at night. Shanhua watched the girls go back to their rooms one by one, and walked to the room alone.
She twisted the mechanism on the bed first, turning off all the hidden weapons. Turning the mechanism under the table again, Shanhua entered the secret room and suddenly fell to the ground in fright. What should I do, the pendant is missing, she was still here last night, why is it missing today. The pendant is gone, and Governor Fang will kill her.
Shanhua walked out with a trembling body and came to her room, where she sat on the bed, trembling all over. What should I do, what should I do, where did the things go, in a few days, Governor Fang was going to send someone to take the things away, but he couldn't find them at this critical moment, didn't he want her Shanhua's life?
Shanhua quickly calmed herself down, and since the things had been lost, it was better to find a substitute for the dead ghost. Her room was right across from Caiwei's room.
Shanhua said suicidly. "Cai Wei, Cai Wei, your mother has raised you for the past few years, and you haven't made any money for your mother, so it's better to die for your mother this time."
There was a sneer on her lips that she hadn't seen before.
