Chapter 184 Heavy Treasure
really!
The door was slowly pushed open, and what made Chen Liangzi even happier was that the door was in excellent condition.
Until it was pushed open, there was no frowning "squeak" sound from the door hinge.
Led by Chen Liangzi, several people quietly entered the house.
They scattered in the yard and each went to claim their own area.
Chen Liangzi has the highest status and the best skills and vision.
He went straight to the main house without hesitation.
You have to understand, that is the main house.
There must be someone living here.
As for the wing rooms, ear rooms, woodshed, etc. on both sides, it is not certain whether there are any people in them.
So, in comparison, Chen Liangzi is naturally the most dangerous.
No wonder these brothers respect him. Good fortune should not be enjoyed alone, and difficulties should be borne by oneself!
Chen Liangzi seems to have gotten used to doing this over the past ten years.
He tiptoed to open the door, leaving a small gap, and slipped in sideways.
The main room is spacious and simple, with an octagonal table and two armchairs in the middle.
On both sides are two sets of treasure racks that are almost as high as the ceiling.
After Chen Liangzi glanced around, he couldn't help but shook his head in disappointment.
The shelves in the Duobao Pavilion have long become empty decorations.
Yes, in the current situation, who would dare to put good things out in the open?
Chen Liangzi was mentally prepared, so after adjusting his mood a little, he immediately began to tiptoe around in the main room.
There were many small treasure hiding places, and Chen Liangzi actually found quite a few!
There is a large square brick right below the Eight Immortals Table.
This brick is right in the middle of the four table legs, and almost no one will notice it.
But when Chen Liangzi lay on the ground and touched it with his hand, he immediately noticed something unusual.
There is a slight bulge on the edge of the square brick, which is almost imperceptible.
But Chen Liangzi did not let go of this suspicious thought.
After gently lifting the square brick, Chen Liangzi actually touched an object.
This thing seems to be only slightly smaller than a square brick. It feels heavy in the hand, and when you rub it carefully, you can find a layer of fine lines on the surface.
It seems to be some words engraved on it.
Chen Liangzi was not very literate, and the light was dim at the moment, so for a moment he really didn't realize what a terrifying treasure the thing in his hand was!
I just thought that since it was hidden so carefully, it shouldn't be too bad, so I put it directly in my arms.
Then he quickly searched the main room, and after more than half an hour, he actually found more than ten carefully hidden things.
There was someone sleeping in the inner room, and Chen Liangzi had no intention of going in.
This is the rule of their sect, they only seek wealth but not life!
Seeing that the two outer rooms had been thoroughly searched, Chen Liangzi felt it was time to retreat.
After restoring all the hiding places one by one, he tiptoed out of the main house, paced and half-knelt to the shadow of the screen wall.
After making a few bird-like sounds from his mouth, figures appeared from several houses around him in a short moment.
When Chen Liangzi saw that all his men had arrived, he didn't say much. He turned around and headed towards the outer courtyard.
Xiao Si and the others followed directly.
Although Chen Liangzi and his men are not very old, they are all veteran thieves.
They naturally know when a transaction is most dangerous.
If you look at it from a normal person's perspective, you will definitely think that the most risky moment is when you enter the house to touch the treasure.
But only those in the industry understand how many of their predecessors have failed miserably.
In a word, as long as you don’t leave the door, you are not out of danger!
Chen Liangzi and his companions became more cautious. After they carefully arrived at the outer courtyard, they just breathed a sigh of relief, but what happened next made them feel extremely scared!
Sure enough! The experience of my seniors really didn’t deceive me!
Chen Liangzi smiled bitterly.
When he looked up, he saw a thin old man with white hair sitting on the stone steps at the entrance of the outer courtyard.
There was also a big and fierce dog with a shiny black body following beside him!
The old man stroked the big black dog's head with one hand. The dog was actually as docile as a rabbit. Seeing so many strangers in front of it, it didn't say a word.
Chen Liangzi has been in the lower class for many years and is very sensitive to the temperament of all kinds of people. The aura of this old man is quite strange.
Therefore, he stopped Xiao Si from pulling out his dagger and signaled them not to act rashly.
After a brief thought, Chen Liangzi stepped forward and bowed.
"Grandpa! Today we~"
Before he could finish his words, the old man waved his hand to stop Chen Liangzi from speaking, then slowly raised his head.
Chen Liangzi looked at the old man's long, wrinkled face and really stopped.
"I'm not here to fight you little brats, let those guys put their weapons away!"
"It's okay for you to take some of these things, but there's one thing you have to leave with us!"
The voice was sharp and soft, and the tone was gentle, but Chen Liangzi felt a force that could not be refuted.
He had some guesses about this person in his mind, and after swallowing, he bowed and said.
"Just as you command, old man!"
"Take out the iron scroll in your arms, put it down, and you can leave!"
When the old man said the word "iron scroll", his eyes suddenly became sharp. After looking at Chen Liangzi, he lowered his eyelids and pressed his dry big hands on the black dog's head.
"Iron Scroll? Oh, is this it?"
After Chen Liangzi reacted, he immediately took out the heavy curved object from his arms.
After taking it in his hands and examining it, he muttered to himself, "Iron scroll? Iron? Red book? Iron scroll?"
In an instant, thunder rolled through Chen Liangzi's heart. He stood there in a daze, and his hands began to tremble slightly.
The old man also saw Chen Liangzi's reaction.
"This thing is not yours to handle. Put it down! Get out of here!"
Chen Liangzi looked at the red letter of credit in his hand, and then looked at the guys behind him who had each taken out a dagger.
He took a deep breath, and with trembling hands, placed the red book and iron certificate on the ground.
The old man nodded and waved his hand, signaling them to leave.
Chen Liangzi, Xiao Si and a few others ran far out of the alley in one breath.
After arriving at a withered grove, they stopped, took off their scarves, and gasped for breath.
"Brother, what happened just now?"
Xiao Si came over and asked Chen Liangzi.
Chen Liangzi smiled bitterly and shook his head. He didn't want to say more, but his mind was in turmoil and he couldn't help but speak out.
"Alas, the treasure I had in hand flew away! I never thought that I, Chen Liangzi, could actually touch that kind of thing! Tsk tsk! Hey, even if I didn't get it, touching it would be a great honor!"
Chen Liangzi was filled with emotion.
"Brother, what on earth did you put on the ground?"
When Xiao Si heard him say this, he became more curious.
"Have you heard of the Red Book and Iron Certificate?"
"Red Book and Iron Certificate???"
Xiao Si widened his eyes. Isn’t this a magical weapon that only exists in operas and vernacular novels?
Actually, really, saw it?
(There are still a few plots in Sijiucheng, and the characters need to be explained, and then it will be the second volume. Thank you for supporting Huzi!)
