Chapter 404 Discovered
Chapter 404 Discovered
Now that the things have been found, most of the problems here have been solved. With these evidences, they can notify people to suppress the bandits or take over everything here.
But now there are only two of them. Shu Xiaoxiao looked at the various medicinal powders in the space. No, there are too many people here. It's not enough at all.
They are now in someone else's territory. From what I heard about their conversation before, they are probably the kind of desperate criminals who would kill without blinking an eye. It's a good thing they brought so many people with them.
After giving them the drug, they can tie them all up before they wake up, and the rest will be easy to deal with. But now there are only two of them. Firstly, they may not be able to knock everyone out. Secondly, they may not be able to wait for the support of Huo Feng and others. If someone wakes up in the middle of the process, who knows how many people will run away.
Thinking of the secret room that Gouweicao mentioned, Shu Xiaoxiao fumbled behind the door for a long time before opening this inconspicuous secret room. It must be said that both the place where the account book was hidden and the secret room were very unexpected. The table could be seen as soon as you entered the door, and it was easy to ignore the table even if you were looking for something. As for the secret room behind the door, it was even more secretive.
She had never heard of anyone having a secret room behind a door. Whoever came in had to go back behind the door to find the secret room!
Unfortunately, they met Shu Xiaoxiao, and with the help of the dogtail grass, it was useless to hide tightly. They could only consider themselves unlucky.
Yun Qinghan is now very accustomed to his junior brother's abilities. Seeing his junior brother find the entrance to the secret room quietly, he did not look surprised. He just observed the entrance of the secret room for a while and made sure there was no danger. Then he protected Shu Xiaoxiao and walked in first.
There was a very narrow staircase leading downwards. Yun Qinghan took out a fire starter and the two of them went down carefully. There was no special mechanism inside. The secret room was just below this house and its area was slightly larger than the house above.
It was very dark inside, with only a fire starter and a very small range of brightness. Shu Xiaoxiao sensed the night pearl in the space, but forget it, it was not suitable for it to appear. She could only quickly take two steps and hold Yun Qinghan's arm with both hands.
There should be some ventilation inside, and the air wasn't stuffy, but it was still too dark, to the point where you couldn't see your hand in front of you. If there was a person inside, the least she would suffer from claustrophobia. She should stay closer to her senior brother. Distance and innocence were nothing at this time.
Yun Qinghan sensed his junior fellow apprentice's fear, and immediately raised his arms to half-hold him in his arms, then looked around with a tinderbox. Although there were some gold, silver, and jewelry inside, there were mostly weapons, enough to support two strongholds. If he took these back to the court, the emperor would definitely be happy to see them.
As for these treasures, Shu Xiaoxiao casually flipped through them and found that these were relatively precious treasures. Shu Xiaoxiao pulled out two of the precious night pearls in her space. After thinking about it, she took them up and put them in her pocket. It was not convenient for her to take the others, and she could not take this one yet.
Yun Qinghan did not stop them. They thought that the two luminous pearls would not be discovered. Besides, when they were discovered, it might not be clear who was in charge here. Junior brother could take them if he liked.
After confirming that these were all inside and there was no other evidence, Yun Qinghan and the other person came out.
“Run! There’s someone outside!”
Just after walking out of the secret room and before she could stand firmly in the room, Shu Xiaoxiao heard the reminder of the dogtail grass by the window. Shu Xiaoxiao's heart skipped a beat. What was going on?
Someone? They were found?
Yun Qinghan also stopped suddenly. They were just behind the door. He glanced through the crack and saw that the place was full of people. Some of them even had bows and arrows drawn, ready to shoot at any time.
Shu Xiaoxiao felt that if they opened the door now, they would definitely turn into hedgehogs.
"You...you just went in and they came here, what...should we do?" The dogtail grass by the window was more anxious than Shu Xiaoxiao. This was the only human who could understand their conversation and would water it with spiritual spring water. It didn't want anything to happen to these two humans, but it seemed to have no way out. What should it do? It had to wait online, very anxious.
"Junior brother, I will hold them back for a while, you leave quickly!" Yun Qinghan said directly. He had observed when they came in. This formation not only prevented people from outside from coming in, but also prevented people inside from leaving. With so many people outside, even with the guidance of his junior brother, he was not sure he could lead him out.
Only if he dragged people along would his fellow apprentice have a chance to escape.
"No, Brother, we must have a way. Let me think about it. Let me think about it."
Shu Xiaoxiao was a little anxious now. It would be fine if it was daytime, but it was already late at night and most of the plants in the mountains were asleep. It was simply unrealistic for her to wake up these trees one by one. There were so many people around, and it would be hell for her senior brother to carry such a burden with him.
Thinking of the medicinal powders prepared in the space, Shu Xiaoxiao didn't care that her senior brother might notice something was wrong, and hurriedly took out all the medicinal powders with more powerful effects.
"Brother, these powders, this pack, have similar effects to what I used in the hunting grounds before. This pack is a little less effective but still okay. And these are itching powders, this is diarrhea powder, this is psychedelic powder...the effects are...all pretty good. There shouldn't be many of these, right?"
Yun Qinghan looked at the various medicinal powders that suddenly appeared in his junior brother's hands, and was silent after being surprised: Not to mention the effects, how did these things appear? He was very sure that his junior brother did not have these things before.
But this was not the time to think about these things. He looked at the amount of medicine powder and said, "It's almost done. Do you know that we are going to leave there soon?"
Shu Xiaoxiao reflexively looked at the foxtail grass by the window.
Dogtail Grass: "East...east!" It had seen someone leaving from the east before, it seemed so!
Shu Xiaoxiao turned around and said affirmatively: "East."
Dogtail grass:..............
Well, I hope they can escape!
Yun Qinghan also followed Shu Xiaoxiao's gaze and could only see a few rays of moonlight shining in through the window and a weed swaying in the wind by the window. Apart from these, there was nothing else.
But this was not the time to be curious. When he heard his junior brother say the east, he began to recall the layout of the village when he came in, thinking about how he could break out from the east as quickly as possible, and also the wind direction. Since they were going to use these medicinal powders, the wind direction was also very important, and they couldn't fall into its trap.
Shu Xiaoxiao seemed to remember something, and quickly took out another pill, put it to Yun Qinghan's mouth, and whispered: "Senior Brother, this medicine powder can protect us from the medicinal effects of the medicine for half an hour." She specially developed this because she was worried that she would accidentally hurt herself when taking the medicine.
Seeing Yun Qinghan swallow it, she quickly ate one herself.
"Okay, with this pill, I'm at least 70% sure I can take you away."
After all, it is deep in the mountains and forests, and there is no shortage of large prey outside. My junior brother has lived in a simple environment since he was a child. Even if my junior brother escapes alone, he is worried about him staying in this deep in the mountains and forests. But he still believes in the effectiveness of his medicinal powder. With these, it should not be a problem to take his junior brother out.
