Chapter 14 Three Places
The Ye family, as one of the several major forces in Black Cloud City, this is a place where ordinary people will always have the opportunity to enter. The guards in front of the door will never let ordinary people in.
It is their unshirkable responsibility to defend the Ye Mansion and check every stranger who enters and exits!
And as night fell.
This is the most lax moment for the guards in front of the Ye Mansion, and the guards will inevitably have to talk to each other.
Syllable...... Syllable...... Syllable......
When the quaint bells rang, the guards who had been standing in front of the door for a day showed a smile.
Because it's time for a shift change!
The guards alternated their day's work in the dark, and for the guards who had been standing all day, it was finally time to go back and have a good rest.
And for the guards who took over the night work, the day's work has just begun!
In between these two rounds of duty.
In the dark night, there was like a ghostly tree shadow, this shadow looked particularly erratic, under the traction of the wind, slowly sneaking into the Ye Mansion, but no one could find anything unusual.
Past the guards in front of the door and enter the Ye family's mansion.
The grandeur of the Ye family, the spacious inner mansion was displayed one by one.
"Ah Qing, Xiao Lu, I heard that the weather has been getting cold recently, so you need to add two clothes at night, don't freeze!"
"Okay, thank you Sister Huan for your concern"
"Well, that's all for today's work, let's go back and rest early!"
"Yes, yes!"
In the corridor, several handmaidens came over, and the handmaid who was the leader commanded the rest of the handmaidens.
After the maidservants had gone, a dark shadow appeared near the place where they had been, and they walked over the railing and on the promenade.
In the corridor, there is a chance that the moonlight will fall, and with a little moonlight, the blurred black shadow will slowly become clearer.
This figure is Xiao Yat!
Xiao Yi looked up and found that the corridors and routes in and out of Ye Mansion were all consistent with what he had explored before, although they were not exactly the same, but there was not much deviation.
Xiao Yi nodded with satisfaction, just about to make a move!
In Xiao Yi's ears, he heard a burst of footsteps again, and a few more people walked by in the corridor.
Xiao Yi's face was as usual, and as soon as his footsteps turned, he hid behind the rockery behind him, and he couldn't see a trace of abnormality.
"Hey, are you hungry, let's go to the kitchen and get something to eat!"
"Well, I'm a little hungry!"
"Then let's go, I heard that there are still a lot of unfinished braised pork in the kitchen, and if you don't eat it, it will be bad."
"Let's go, let's go!"
The sound of footsteps gradually came from afar, and Xiao Yat appeared from the darkness again.
Although it was already late at night, many places in the Ye Mansion were brightly lit, and people came and went, and Xiao Yi could not be slack.
Xiao Yi's figure once again escaped into the darkness, following the originally planned route, shuttling through the Ye Mansion, looking for his goal!
When he came, the employer had already explained the matter to Xiao Yat. What Xiao Yat stole was a cup - a Linglong cup!
According to legend, it was a gift given to her by a wandering master from outside the Ye family when Miss Ye of the Ye family was born.
According to the employer's description, the cup is made of unknown crystal, and when the water is released, the cup seems to be swimming in the water, and when it is still, the cup is often filled with cold!
When they first saw this thing, everyone in the Ye family thought it was an extraordinary thing and regarded it as a treasure. However, as the years passed, the object found no use other than its extraordinary appearance.
Over time, this thing was forgotten.
Now that nineteen years have passed, the eldest lady of the Ye family is also nineteen years old, and I am afraid that this thing has long been forgotten by people far away.
When he came, Xiao Yat had already estimated three places. There may be this thing.
The first place is Miss Ye's residence, in Ye's mansion, Miss Ye lives in more than one place, in addition to her own private boudoir,
In the southeast and southwest directions, there are also two of her rooms, both of which have Miss Ye has her own storage cabinet, hiding things from childhood to adulthood.
This is also what Xiao Yat doubts the most, if the thing is really there, it will be even better.
In order to explore the mystery of stealing the heavens, Xiao Yi made this trip, in addition to stealing things, he also had the intention of stealing jade and stealing incense.
If the exquisite cup happens to be in Miss Ye's boudoir, then it will kill two birds with one stone!
The second place that may store the Linglong cup is the grocery room of the Ye Mansion, and the grocery room of the Ye Mansion is mostly filled with worthless groceries, most of which are things that the Ye family does not want, such as the old clothes worn by the subordinates, and the broken weapons of the Ye family.
This place is relatively unlikely. But I can't tell!
As far as Xiao Yi knows, there are seven or eight grocery pavilions in the Ye family, and if they are found, I am afraid it will really take some effort. However, there is one thing that is that this kind of place is less difficult.
And the third place is the Treasure Pavilion of Ye Mansion, which is the place that Xiao Yi is most worried about.
The Ye family's treasure pavilion, just thinking about it, you can know that the hidden treasures are all the precious treasures of the Ye family, which is undoubtedly the most difficult.
Not to mention that there is a tight defense at the entrance of this place, and there are many mechanisms. Just the key to the Treasure Pavilion, Xiao Yat is no different!
However, the possibility of this place is not very large, the treasure pavilion of the Ye Mansion is full of strange treasures that the Ye family has treasured in the past hundred years.
That small cup, although it was an extraordinary gift from a master, had not been found to be of any use for more than ten years, and it should not have been placed in the Treasure Pavilion.
And more importantly, in the Ye family's treasure pavilion, there are treasures in the mansion, but the cup is a private thing for Miss Ye.
The most likely place is still the former residence of Miss Ye
And Xiao Yat's first target is Miss Ye's residence.
But...... Xiao Yat noticed that something seemed to be wrong tonight.
"Why are there so many guards tonight, there is still a feeling of being in a tight position. Xiao Yat muttered to himself!
At the beginning of the Ye Mansion, Xiao Yi hadn't noticed anything unusual, but now, Xiao Yi was more and more aware that something was wrong, just like the people in the Ye Mansion knew that they would come tonight!
Hearing the footsteps of a few people coming, Xiao Yi's figure escaped into the darkness again!
The group ended the guards standing guard and walked slowly in twos and threes.
"Hey, have you heard?
"Heard something. ”
"Today, as soon as Miss Ye came back, she asked us to tighten our vigilance, and said that it was very likely that someone would come to steal in the next two days. You say it's weird, isn't it weird!"
Hey, isn't this? This thief went to the Ye Mansion to steal things again, it's been many years, and I haven't seen anything missing from the Ye family!"
Yes, if you want me to say, this is Miss Ye herself thinks that we are too easy, and she will find something for us to do!
"Shh......h Say less, lest others hear. ”
"Yes!
Hehe, what do you do with him, let's just do our own tasks, it's just that it's going to be hard these days!
A few of the guards chatted as they walked, and gradually walked away.
Looking at the guards walking away, Xiao Yi gradually came out of the darkness and stretched his brows.
Xiao Yi roughly understood what was going on, and a smile appeared on his face.
"If that's the case, it couldn't be better. ”
Xiao Yi didn't expect that he was setting up a stall during the day, and he just said casually that Miss Ye was really good, and after she came back, she made Ye Fu vigilant.
It's a bit of a buzz tonight!
Facing the Ye Mansion, which was now on guard, Xiao Yi did not increase the slightest pressure.
What I want to steal is a Linglong cup, which is mostly in Miss Ye's residence, or in the grocery store.
Xiao Yi found that they had strengthened their vigilance in places such as the Treasure Pavilion, and if the guards were transferred to the Treasure Pavilion, it would be beneficial to Xiao Yi.
After wandering around, Xiao Yi successfully came to Miss Ye's former residence.
This residence looks beautiful and gorgeous, this is where she lived when she was a child, and there should be a lot of items from her childhood hidden in it, and the Linglong Cup may soon be in it!
Looking at this exquisite residence, Xiao Yi's eyes showed a gloomy light, as if he was looking at a lamb to the slaughter.
