After arriving outside the old house, Zhao Di saw that the door was not locked, so she quietly pushed the door open and walked in.

Yuan Lihua was sitting in the dim light shadow, dozing off leisurely.

"Even if I wake her up, she may not tell me the truth, it is better to go to the room to take a look while she is asleep!"

After Zhao Di made up her mind, she walked into the door. Mrs. Yuan Lihua didn't wake up. In the faint and confused shadow of the lamp, you can see an old painting hanging on the wall, which shows Guanyin Niangniang stepping on lotus flowers and driving the clouds. An old defunct clock hangs from the wall by the fireplace, and a glass door leads to the kitchen. The glass door is flanked by a staircase that leads to the room on the second floor.

Zhao Di's feet had just walked up the stairs when she heard a small sound of footsteps coming from outside.

"Is it Wang Qiang?"

Zhao Di secretly speculated in her heart. She thought it would be risky to rush to the second floor now, because that guy might be on the second floor right away. Thinking of this, Zhao Di quickly hid in the glass door, planning to escape through the back door of the kitchen in case of an accident.

However, as soon as Zhao Di stepped into the glass door, she immediately regretted it. It turned out that inside the door was not a kitchen at all, but a huge cabinet full of scraps, and besides, the glass could be locked from the inside or from the outside, and if someone locked it from the outside, then she couldn't slip out anyway.

By the time she was about to go out again, there was already a loud footstep outside the door. Zhao Di could only close the glass door in panic, curled up in a ball, held her breath, and listened attentively to the movement outside the door.

She saw through the crack in the glass door two men dodging into the room. One of them pulled his hat low on his head and raised the collar of his coat. However, this did not escape Zhao Di's eyes, that person was Wang Qiang. The other man covered his face with a black cloth, his eyes shining with a terrible light.

"Boss, the old woman is asleep!" The masked man said in a hoarse voice.

"Wake her up and ask her about the whereabouts of the coins."

"Okay!"

The masked man lifted the table violently and violently, and let out a screeching sound. The old lady was immediately awakened, her eyes wide and frightened, and she looked at the person in front of her at a loss.

"Old woman! Tell me, where did you hide the gold coins? Tell me quickly, and if you dare to hide it, I'll give you some color right away! ”

Wang Qiang looked hideous and intimidated, and pushed his hat with his fingers again, revealing the blue-faced fanged face.

The old lady stared at the two of them incredulously, as if she didn't know what they were talking about.

"Did you hear that? Tell me where you put that mysterious gold coin? It's the gold coin that Old Man Meng asked you to keep for him! I don't believe you don't know anything about this, don't pretend to be confused! One of the old man's maids has already told me, so don't try to fool around, you better say it obediently! ”

The old lady trembled with horror, but she still didn't say a word, just twitched her mouth, which had lost all her teeth.

"Boss, it's useless! This old woman can't seem to hear with her ears, and no matter how much you threaten her, it won't work at all! ”

"Really? All right! Try her by some other means!"

So, Wang Qiang took out a red piece of charcoal wood from the stove next to him, and wrote two big characters clearly on the wall:

Gold

When the old lady saw the words on the wall, she was immediately frightened and pale, and kept waving her hand to refuse.

"Look at this, she knows this secret, great!"

Wang Qiang pointed to the words on the wall with one hand, and strangled the old lady's neck with the other.

The old lady struggled to break free with both hands, and her mouth could not stop moaning.

"You can speak! Good! Hurry up and say it, quick! ”

The old lady looked frightened and uneasy, cold sweat kept coming out of her head, and grabbed Wang Qiang's hands with both hands, suggesting that he stop and spare his life.

Wang Qiang let go of his hand a little. Old lady Yuan Lihua coughed sadly and said, "I'll ...... the gold coins Throw it into ...... Lake ......"

"What...... What? Throw it into the lake, you're just talking nonsense! ”

Wang Qiang smiled cruelly and added strength to his hand again. The old lady's face immediately turned red, and then turned blue and purple, and a lot of saliva flowed out of her mouth, and her eyes hung obliquely, and the whites of her eyes were revealed.

"Cupboard...... Cabinet...... Stone, slate ......"

As soon as she uttered these words, she fainted. "Old woman...... Old lady...... Yes! Hurry up and wake her up with water! ”

The masked man took a bucket of cold water from the kitchen and poured Yuan Lihua on his face. The old lady slowly woke up, looked around, and laughed wildly.

"What a, another madman!"

"It's all your fault! Top dog! You drove her crazy! Just look at her and you know she's gone crazy! ”

"Boss, how do you like to bully the elderly and drive them crazy! The last one was Old Man Meng, and this time it's Yuan Lihua's turn! You're scaring people stupid, how can you find out where the gold coins are hidden? You're stupid! ”

"Not necessarily! Didn't she just say that there were cabinets and slates? You see! There are two big cupboards there! The gold must have been placed there, or kept under a stone slab! ”

"You go look inside the cupboard, and I'll search under the slate!"

Wang Qiang put an iron rod into the gap between the stone slabs and vigorously excavated the stone slabs one by one. The masked man also reached into the middle of the cupboard, struggling to find it.

Both of them turned their backs to the cabinet where Zhao Di was hiding, searching incessantly.

Zhao Di was extremely anxious, and if they couldn't find the gold in the cabinet there, they would definitely come to the cabinet where she was hiding to search for it.

There is no other way out now! When Zhao Di was worried, the crazy old lady stood up with all her might, stumbled to the glass door, and tried to pull it open. Zhao Di was taken aback, and her hands tightly clutched the door. The wife tried hard to pull away, but Zhao Di held it down with all her might. Eventually, the old lady seemed to be exhausted, slowly squatted down, and fainted.

Wang Qiang and the masked man didn't notice it at all, but they kept searching for the mysterious gold coin under the cabinet and stone slab.

Zhao Di pondered for a moment, determined to find a way to slip out of here. However, even if she came out lightly, she would still be discovered by the two of them, it is really unimaginable, how should this be?...... No matter how brave and fearless Zhao Di is, she is just a girl under the age of twenty......
