Chapter 251: Search in the building
"Zhang Baihu is not at home, he must have led his men and horses to the worry-free forest in the northwest to find the buried treasure!"
Liu Sijian thought in his heart, he withdrew his gaze looking at the southwest direction to admire the sunset, turned to look at the house in the northwest corner, and muttered: "At this time, it is getting late, and that chapter of the white tiger must have finished work and is on his way back." No, staying here is not the way to go, I have to go into this house so that I can hide myself!"
The cooks downstairs were in the lower position, and they couldn't imagine that someone dared to break upstairs, so they didn't find anything about Liu Sijian.
In contrast, Liu Sijian stood tall and saw far away, and every move of several cooks was all shown in his eyes.
And this, without asking, is naturally an advantage.
When the cook entered the thatched hut again, and the courtyard was empty, Liu Sijian suddenly rushed forward and had already reached the door of the house in the northwest corner.
The door is locked, but this is not difficult for Liu Sijian, his two hands are now only three miles harder than steel!
Therefore, I saw him grasp one end of the lock with one hand, pull it to both sides with a little force, and after a crisp click, the lock was opened without a key.
Liu Sijian took the lock, pushed the door open a crack with one hand, and with a dodge, the person had already appeared behind the door, and the door had been closed again, and there was no sound.
But the door was empty, and there was no longer the rectangular black lock.
The room was neatly tidy, but apparently there was no one living here, for there was nothing but tables, chairs, benches, and so on.
Liu Sijian walked, watched, came to a Taishi chair, stretched out the index and middle fingers of his right hand, and gently wiped them on the backrest, and there was a rough feeling on his skin.
Although it was late, and the room was getting a little dark, and I couldn't see the scenery clearly, even if I didn't look at it, I could guess that it was dust.
"It seems that there has been no activity in this room for a few days!"
Liu Sijian thought to himself, so he looked left and right, trying to find something, and sure enough, he found a small door open on the east wall, and a door blocked the connection between here and the east.
"I wonder if this door can be opened?"
Liu Sijian suddenly had a kind of impulse, he walked over, pushed the door, and with a little force, the small door creaked and opened.
Entering the room on the east side, Liu Sijian's eyes widened, and when he looked carefully, he saw that there were still some things here, and only a few pieces were sparsely placed, and nothing else.
However, there was a cabinet that attracted Liu Sijian's attention, he walked closer, opened it to look, hoping to find something, but it was empty and there was nothing to see.
At this time, the window directly south suddenly became bright.
Liu Sijian was shocked, as the so-called thief was empty-hearted, he thought that the master had come back and lit the candle.
Just as he was about to hide, he couldn't help but smile when he looked at it again, and said, "It turns out that the cooks below lit the lights!" and shook his head again, sighing for his guts.
"Don't say that there is no one, but there are people, I, a cultivator who has entered the Sand Awareness Realm, will I still be afraid?"
Therefore, seeing that he could not gain anything here, Liu Sijian walked under the east wall, and found another door there, so he also opened it and walked in.
The door in this suite was not locked, and this naturally provided convenience for Liu Sijian.
Qiu Jinbao will also be much more convenient.
"Has the lord of the castle entered the house to the east?"
Liu Sijian wasn't sure where he was at the moment, but since he had agreed to meet under the locust forest before the third watch, he was not afraid that he would be separated.
In this third room, near the east wall, there was a bed of teeth, and the tent was hung up at the four corners, so that it could be put in order.
On the west wall is a dresser, which looks like a girl's boudoir!
"Is Ling'er living here?"
This was the first reaction that appeared in Liu Sijian's heart, but she immediately began to shake her head again, which meant that she was not sure.
Zhang Baihu dominates Jinnan Town, and he is wealthy, even Qiu Jinbao sighs to himself, there are a few maids and maids in the family, which is really normal.
In the meantime, he searched again, but found nothing.
"It's a three-story building, and there are so many rooms in it, if you want to search it, it's not easy to do, what can I do?"
Liu Sijian frowned, it was already evening, the master was about to return, and he was still stranded here, and it was unlikely that he would not be worried.
"Let's hurry up and clean up, Miss will be back soon, if you can't clean it up, you will have to be scolded again!"
This is a woman's voice, it sounds quite immature, I think it is no more than sixteen or seventeen years old, and this voice comes from the corridor outside the house.
"Oh no, it's here!"
Liu Sijian hurriedly flashed behind the bed tent, he had to hide, because there was already a sound of the door opening from the south, it was from the key that stabbed into the lock, and he could hear it completely.
"Oh, don't rush, no matter what, you have to collect the things rewarded by the master first, this is very expensive!"
It was another woman talking, listening, about the same age as the woman before.
The two doors on the south side were pushed open in a creaking sound, and the sound of soaring footsteps sounded, not because the woman weighed, but because she walked in a hurry, and her steps were fast, so there was a movement.
In fact, she was a small and delicate woman, which Liu Sijian saw with her own eyes, and she did not come to the bedside, but went straight to the dresser in the west.
Pulling open a drawer, she put her right hand inside, then pulled it out and closed it.
"Can you hurry up, or I'll go upstairs and light the candles in the lady's room, I don't want to be scolded again!"
The voice of the woman at the door was full of anxiety, and she said impatiently to the woman in the house.
"Alright, let's go!"
The woman in the house replied, and hurried out, and the sound of footsteps sounded outside the door, and she trotted eastward.
"What is this woman putting in here?"
Liu Sijian, who had been hiding behind the bed tent and didn't dare to breathe, thought about it, walked to the dresser, and opened the drawer that the woman had opened and closed.
"It turned out to be two carrots!"
Liu Sijian saw that there were indeed things in the drawer, and there were two, picked them up, looked at them carefully, and looked at the feeling a little together, and found that this was not a carrot, and said in his heart: "It turned out to be ginseng, no wonder it is a precious thing!"
"It must have been dug up when the forest was harvested, these two maids served on the side, serving with their hearts, and as soon as the white tiger was happy, he rewarded two ginsengs!"
Liu Sijian thought about it, and suddenly became greedy, and said: "What is sent to you, don't be in vain!" After smiling proudly, he unceremoniously put two ginseng into his arms.
