Chapter 233: Musty-smelling Letter Paper
"Don't move!" A hoarse and cold voice sounded behind Qiao Xuelin.
Qiao Xuelin's whole body froze and he dared not move for a moment.
"Get up." The hoarse voice ordered again.
Qiao Xuelin stood up obediently.
The rescued Chun'e immediately climbed down from the bed and looked at the scene in front of her nervously.
There were two more people wearing masks in the room. Judging from their clothes and body shapes, they should be men.
"Who are you? How did you break in?" Qiao Xuelin pretended to be calm.
The two people behind didn't say anything. One of them stepped forward and stuffed a pill into Qiao Xuelin's mouth.
Ye Tang could suppress his voice, making it hard to tell whether he was male or female: "What I gave you is poison. This poison will not kill you immediately. As long as you cooperate, I will give you the antidote when we find the vault."
Qiao Xuelin's face changed drastically: "What vault? I don't understand what you are talking about. This is just a villa."
The Hot Spring Villa is where the Qiao family seeks pleasure and entertains guests; this is no secret in the capital.
Ye Tang smiled softly: "Master Qiao, before coming here, I have already found out that the hot spring villa looks luxurious, and it is really luxurious. There is a lot of gold buried underground."
She slapped Qiao Xuelin in the face with a dagger: "Be obedient, or I'll kill you."
Qiao Xuelin was not afraid at all: "Kill me? Do you dare?"
"I know where the vault is." Chun'e suddenly said.
Ye Tang looked at her in surprise: "You know?"
Chun'e nodded: "I have seen the topographic map of the hot spring villa. I can draw it."
Qiao Xuelin's expression changed slightly, and he said in a cold voice: "Wang Chun'e, are you looking for death?"
Chun'e said with a determined look: "I don't want to live anymore. My husband was killed by you. What's the point of me living alone in this world?"
Ye Tang was puzzled: "Don't you have a son?"
Just now, Qiao Xuelin threatened her with his son.
Wang Chun'e smiled bitterly: "My son, haha, he has an incurable disease and won't live for a few days."
Ye Tang asked her: "Where did you see the topographic map?"
Wang Chun'e replied: "My husband showed it to me."
Qiao Xuelin sneered: "Her husband is just the lowest-ranking guard of my hot spring villa. How can he be qualified to get the topographic map...ah! Hmm?"
Before he could finish his words, Ye Tang slashed his neck with a dagger. Before he could even scream, a teacup was stuffed into his mouth.
The teacup was quite big and almost broke his mouth, causing his teeth to ache.
Ye Tang said coldly: "Since you don't want to cooperate, then shut up."
Ye Tang took out a charcoal pencil and paper from his purse and threw them to Wang Chun'e: "Draw a topographic map. When we get what we want, we will take you out. As long as you cooperate, we will not only save you, but also your son."
Save her son?
Wang Chun'e didn't believe it. Even the doctors in the capital couldn't cure her son's illness, let alone two strangers. However, she wanted to go out, see her son for the last time, and then die together.
Wang Chun'e drew the topographic map without hesitation. She was not used to using charcoal, but that did not stop her from drawing.
Seeing Wang Chun'e drawing the topographic map stroke by stroke, Qiao Xuelin's eyes were filled with more and more shock.
This bitch, she actually drew a topographic map!
hateful!
Qiao Xuelin was obviously a little flustered, but he tried his best to hide it, not wanting Ye Tang and the others to see his flaws.
Jamel Xiao noticed all his strange behavior.
"Are you nervous? Because the topographic map is real."
Qiao Xuelin shook his head, then nodded.
Jamel Xiao sneered: “It seems that you are useless.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he stabbed Qiao Xuelin's abdomen with a sword.
Qiao Xuelin wanted to scream in pain but couldn't.
At this moment, he seemed to see his grandmother waving at him.
He felt the fear of death.
No, he can't die.
Qiao Xuelin whimpered and struggled.
It seems to be saying, I am still useful, don’t kill me!
Jamel Xiao pulled out the sword: "It's useless, it's just an eyesore."
Wang Chun'e's face turned pale, she was frightened, but soon she came to her senses, looked at Qiao Xuelin's stabbed abdomen, and laughed silently. She pointed at Qiao Xuelin and sneered: "You deserve this day!"
Qiao Xuelin felt the blood draining from his body: “Woo woo woo!”
Ye Tang took the cup away from his mouth: "Last chance, speak."
"I am useful, I am still useful. I will give you silver, lots and lots of silver. Please don't kill me." Qiao Xuelin lost his previous composure. His embarrassed and pale face was covered with cold sweat, and fear was in his eyes.
"Where is the silver?" Ye Tang asked.
Qiao Xuelin kept silent.
Ye Tang put the cup back into his mouth: "If you don't want to say it, then don't say it."
She turned and walked to the corner. Like a magician, she took out a rope, tied up Qiao Xuelin and threw him onto the bed. She wiped the blood off the floor, lit some incense, threw Qiao Xuelin onto the bed, and said to Wang Chun'e, "You stay with him. Don't kill him. I'll come pick you up later. Remember, you still have a son. Don't die!"
Wang Chun'e's eyes were filled with tears: "Yeah."
Ye Tang added: "Make some noise, don't let people get suspicious."
Wang Chun'e was stunned for a moment, but she quickly understood what was going on. She immediately climbed onto the bed, pinched Qiao Xuelin hard, and made a miserable cry for mercy.
"No! Let me go! Qiao Xuelin! I'm going to kill you!"
The voice gradually became weaker and more obscene.
Hearing this, Ye Tang and Xiao Jingxuan's movements of jumping out of the window seemed unnatural.
"Madam, after we go back, should we..." Xiao Jingxuan looked at Ye Tang with bright eyes.
Ye Tang pushed his face away: "Get out of the way, I don't want it!"
After running around all night, she still has to serve the man when she goes back. Do you really think she is made of iron?
roll!
Ye Tang and his companion followed the instructions on the topographic map and found a woodshed while yawning.
Move the most inconspicuous piece of firewood on the ground, and the floor of the woodshed will immediately split into two sides.
The two took out the night pearls to light up the basement, and after walking a hundred meters, they saw the vault.
Wow, that's a lot of gold!
It's all gold, gold as big as gold bars.
"The Qiao family is really amazing. This is just one of their vaults!"
"Wait, these are... salt?"
It's private salt again.
In addition to gold nuggets, there were nearly five thousand kilograms of fine salt in the basement.
Ye Tang put all the gold nuggets and fine salt into the space.
Just as he was about to leave, Jamel Xiao noticed something strange about the wall on the right. He reached out and pressed it, and a brick on the wall was dented.
The bottom brick bulged out.
Ye Tang reached out and picked up the brick, and found that the weight was a bit strange, much lighter than ordinary stone bricks.
Xiao Jingxuan took it and looked at it: "It's a mechanical stone box."
He found an inconspicuous, slightly raised place and pressed hard. The stone brick rotated and opened, revealing four small drawers, each containing a letter. The stationery was both new and old. The oldest one looked like it was twenty years old and gave off a faint musty smell.
