Chapter 276: Ransacked
The crowd was in an uproar and looked at each other.
Meng Xingzhi, who had been watching the play in the crowd all day, but didn't see anything really interesting, suddenly brightened his eyes.
"Go."
He looked back at the Boundless Behind him.
Wujing immediately realized that he would turn around and go to investigate.
After a stick of incense, he came back from Wujing, leaned on Meng Xingzhi's ear and said, "Master, no signs of suspicious people have been found." โ
Meng Xingzhi: "It seems that he has already left." You and Wuxue, hurry up and go around the city gate. โ
Boundless Command: "Yes." โ
It was a quarter of an hour before the fire was finally brought under control.
Ignoring the remnants of sparks and choking smoke, Wu Xian rushed into the study that had been burned to ruins.
Books, calligraphy and paintings, of course, are long gone.
Wu Xian didn't care, because what he cared about the most was his secret room!
Behind the charcoal-burned bookshelves, a small room was exposed.
The officials and the family members hurriedly dispersed the guests and left.
But there is a lively look, where are there still people who want to leave?
"At this time, the person who set the fire may still be there, do you really want to drive everyone away?"
"Lord Wu, it seems that someone deliberately burned your study."
"That's it, Lord Wu. How much treasure and silver are hidden in your study, seeing that you are so anxious, it should be a lot, right? โ
"Lord Wu, do you want us to help?"
Someone laughed, and Wu Xian's confused mind suddenly came to his senses.
"Come on, take them all out for me, and keep them all under strict control! Today, if you don't catch the arsonist, no one will want to run! โ
Everyone shouted, "Lord Wu, you can't wronged innocent and good people, I just gave you fifty taels of silver today." โ
"Yes, Lord Wu, the grass people are also innocent, and the grass people sent you fifty fine silk horses."
"Lord Wu, my uncle is Jiang Yuan's Taishou, you can't touch me!"
"Wait for it to be released!"
The crowd began to make a lot of noise.
But Wu Xian has already gone crazy, if his treasures are destroyed, he will drag everyone to bury him!
Even when Wang Gui stepped forward, Wu Xian didn't pay attention.
He stumbled, ignoring the hot surroundings, and lifted the fallen furniture.
A few large boxes, all of which are still there.
However, the silver tickets and ingots on the shelves, I don't know whether they have been melted or burned, there is no trace of them.
And although the treasures on the surface of the box are blackened, they are still there.
Wu Xian almost rolled his eyes, and then reluctantly turned back.
Before a smile appeared on his face, Wang Gui suddenly stepped forward: "Wait, it's not right." โ
Wang Gui picked open the jewelry on the surface with his sword and flicked it down a few times.
Where is the treasure below?
It's all genuine, big rock!
"Heh, what a big snitch, he has looted all the treasures in your secret room!"
"There was also a stealing beam to change the pillar, what a good kung fu!"
Wang Gui looked at Wu Xian with a sneer, wanting to know if all this was his plan.
After all, he clearly said half a month ago that he would dedicate all his family wealth to his master.
Otherwise, he would not have kept him alive to this day.
But how much Wu Xian loves money, Wang Gui has a clear heart.
Therefore, if this Wu Xian planned all this for himself because he was reluctant to make his family wealth, in order to steal the dragon and turn the phoenix to sell himself to poverty, he would not spare his life!
Who knows, Wu Xian didn't care about how Wang Gui doubted himself at this time, because, after knowing that all the gold and silver treasures and all the family property had been dropped, he covered his chest and squirted a mouthful of blood in anger-
"Poofโ"
Wu Xian couldn't hold on anymore and fell to the ground.
After two convulsions, I had a stroke.
In the county office, the people who were detained in the hall were panicked.
Meng Xingzhi was still at ease, and he had been waiting quietly under the service of the guards.
Until he came back an hour later, he still just shook his head: "Before the curfew closed the city gates, there were no suspicious people." โ
Meng Xingzhi was completely interested at this time.
"Oh......? A bit of a skill. โ
"Who could it be...... What method was used to transfer so much property so blatantly...... Interesting. โ
Suddenly, he thought of something.
"Go and ask when those people in the troupe left."
When he came back without a mirror, he informed Meng Xingzhi that the troupe had already left the city at two o'clock in the afternoon.
A smile appeared on Meng Xingzhi's face.
Seeing this, Wu Zhi gasped: "What does the third master mean, isn't it ...... those people in the troupe?" โ
Meng Xingzhi shook his head: "With only those three sects and nine streams, it is impossible to do it so seamlessly and without movement." There must still be someone! Moreover, this matter must have been carefully planned for a long time. โ
Meng Xingzhi thought that today is not only the opera troupe, but also the juggling team.
There are many people in the whole county, and the servants can't even take care of the guests, so how can they be alert to the study and go to the living people?
It's a good time to start.
This Wu Xian is not only greedy for money, but he is really stupid.
I heard that half a month ago, he mysteriously disappeared at home, but only one day later, he appeared at home covered in injuries.
But who he was taken captive and how he was injured is still a mystery to the outside world.
He wanted to catch the person who hurt him, but he refused to lose face and tell the details, and thought that the other party was really afraid of his bluff and didn't dare to come again?
Meng Xingzhi suspected that all the treasures of Meng Xingzhi were stolen today, which was related to Wu Xian's injury half a month ago.
It's just that Wu Xian was stupid and didn't expect these crises in advance, so he didn't even preset an ambush.
Wu Xue asked: "Master, do you want to remind this Lord Wu?" This matter ......"
A court official, who stole all the treasures in his home, is not a trivial matter after all.
Meng Xingzhi frowned: "Am I such an eventful person?" It's just a show, so why bother with such a good thing. โ
This dog thing is dead, and it deserves it.
Meng Xingzhi also saw it with his own eyes today, and only then did he know what it was like to be a small county official with a seventh grade, an insatiable corrupt official, lustful and greedy, and extravagant.
The birthday banquet of the mother of a county magistrate eats delicacies from the mountains and seas, drinks from a 50-year-old cellar, and uses gold-plated and silver-plated and jade utensils.
The banquet is even more extravagant.
In the small county courtyard, the flowers and trees are precious and rare, and they are extravagant and flashy everywhere, comparable to the royal manor.
The silk and satin worn by the master of the family are not mentioned in five colors and ten lights, even if they are worn by servants, they are also brocade.
Drama troupe juggling, storytelling and singing.
The guests were full and lively.
Compared with those aristocratic families in Shangjing, it is simply surpassed.
This kind of corrupt officials and corrupt officials, if the court does not investigate and the people do not report, they may really be able to dominate and become rich and noble in this small border county.
However, today's incident, not to mention that this corrupt official can't bear it himself, that is, King Yan wants the gold and silver treasure trove of this small county official, and this time I am afraid that he will have to make a false calculation.
For Meng Xingzhi, this is naturally happy to see it come to fruition.
It's just that......
What's so weird?
Meng Xingzhi closed his eyes, and quickly thought of these complicated and trivial things in his mind.
Suddenly, his eyes widened and he thought of something.
"Wait! Dart game. โ
His heart skipped a beat.
That dart game is not an ordinary dart game, he has already heard Wu Zhi say that there are many mechanisms in it, even Wu Zhi can not break through repeatedly.
Today.
Just today, the dart board suddenly went to the empty building, and the girl and everyone else in the dart game disappeared and left.
Why such a coincidence?
Or is it serious, just a coincidence? (End of chapter)
