Qiao Xiaomai stared at this brick, carefully searched in the space for a while, and finally found a can of strong glue.
The glue was the same she had used against her stepmother years ago. She had sneakily glued her stepmother’s skirt, along with her underwear, to the chair during a cocktail party, making her suffer a huge embarrassment.
Because she had won that battle brilliantly, she kept the can of strong glue in her space as a memento of victory.
Unexpectedly, it came in handy in this different time-space.
She did not have the luxury of time to be sentimental and promptly used the strong glue to stick the clay brick back in place.
After confirming that the clay brick would not fall off, she packed up the strong glue, took out the soil she had dug up earlier from her space bit by bit, and slowly filled up the soil pit.
When she filled back the crushed stone soil of the foundation layer, in the secret tunnel, Yang Ye, Yang Wang, Ma Dongshu, along with Tong Sanlang and Tong Tiehu, appeared in this huge underground vault.
Three meters thick soil layer, and in the middle a layer of soil bricks as hard as steel, the noise created by Xiaomai’s work was no longer audible to them.
The air in the vault was filled with a layer of dust, Yang Ye, covering his nose with a handkerchief, examined the surroundings in the light of the torch.
It was vast and high, its grandeur could even match that of the palace in the Imperial Palace.
But it was surprisingly empty!
A space as large as an acre, over ten meters high, such a huge underground cave was empty!
It had absolutely nothing in it apart from the dust floating in the air!
This was not right!
According to the treasure map, the treasure trove of the previous dynasty’s national treasury was buried here in Anping Village. However, since he did not know the exact location, he had invited Ma Dongshu to come over.
After arriving, Ma Dongshu searched around the mountain and the village but found nothing.
Just this morning, to stop Yang Wang from pestering Qiao Xiaomai again, he took Yang Wang for hunting in the mountains.
Then, unexpectedly, they found a crack in the mountain’s cliff. After enlarging the crack, hidden inside was a cave.
The cave connected to a secret tunnel that seemed to lead off somewhere.
A secret tunnel!
At that time, he was overjoyed. If he found the secret tunnel, could the treasure be far away?
The treasure couldn’t be far away!
Therefore, he immediately sent people to invite Tong Sanlang and Tong Tiehu over. As soon as these two behaved unusually, he could capture them at any time.
Well… it would be difficult to capture Tong Sanlang, but Tong Tiehu would not be a problem!
Tong Sanlang might have reservations and might surrender.
Back in the day, it was Gu Yu’s woman who disappeared with the treasure. In the whole Anping Village, the Tong family was the most suspicious.
Was Tong Sanlang’s martial arts derived from a secret martial arts manual?
Heh.
Such light work, in the whole Daqi, no, in the whole world, was unheard of, unseen. Its magic was almost as astonishing as Gu Yu’s woman.
The Tong family was highly likely related to that woman!
Just because he became suspicious of the Tong family, he had tipped Qiao Xiaomai that way before, hoping that Qiao Xiaomai would not be deceived by Tong Sanlang.
But Qiao Xiaomai, a girl who has rarely seen men, and Tong Sanlang, who showed deep affection and loyalty, his words were completely disregarded.
However, it didn’t matter, Tong Sanlang was Tong Sanlang, and Qiao Xiaomai was Qiao Xiaomai.
As long as Qiao Xiaomai behaved honestly and know her place, then he could save her life.
So, not only did he send people to invite Tong Tiehu and Tong Sanlang over, but he also sent two people to protect Qiao Xiaomai.
Once the treasure emerged, Yang Wang, and Cen Hongping would fall into a crazy state. In such a chaotic situation, Qiao Xiaomai, a weak woman, had no ability to protect herself.
So, he had planned it all very well.
On one hand, he called Tong Tiehu and Tong Sanlang.
On the other hand, he sent people to protect Qiao Xiaomai.
But to his surprise, after going through a long secret tunnel, this huge vault turned out to be empty!
Empty!
