When they came out of Xiaozhuyuan, the three of them were very angry.

They have been big bosses for many years, what kind of people they have never met, and there are many people who have opposed them, but who made such a big move as soon as they came?

Shouldn't it be a face-to-face first, to test the attitude and depth, and then discuss it in the long run?

Why doesn't this little yellow-haired girl follow the routine?

Having said that, if the yellow-haired girl really followed the routine, they should lead her away by the nose.

But these years have been like this, the initiative is in their hands, and they are used to it.

Suddenly being slapped hard by someone, the other party is still a little brat, the more I think about it, the more irritable I get, it's a little unbelievable.

Now on the road, the three of them couldn't say anything.

It wasn't until he returned to the meeting hall that Mr. Feng finally couldn't control his violent temper, and smashed a table with his palm!

Patriarch Mu no longer persuaded him.

After a big somersault, he was also extremely distressed.

This is the first time they have been tricked so badly.

What is capsized in the gutter, this is it.

Mr. Feng said angrily: "Old Xue, we have been played around by a little girl, if it spreads out, I'm afraid it will make people laugh!"

Xue Ping remained calm: "So?"

Mr. Feng sighed: "Gold can't be given to her! I can't swallow this breath!"

Xue Ping asked, "Don't you care about your grandson?"

Old Man Feng choked: "I'll find a few experts to rescue him secretly."

Xue Ping said again: "Where's the account book? Also steal it back?"

Mr. Feng thought for a while, then snorted disdainfully: "If she can steal from us, we can also steal from her!"

Xue Ping always felt that things were not that simple.

The girl looked confident that she was not afraid of stealing at all, and she probably had already hidden the account book in a place where it could not be found.

Xue Ping guessed right, Su Xiaoxiao threw all the stolen goods into the pharmacy, they just came to steal, if they found it, Su Xiaoxiao lost.

If it weren't for the pharmacy not accepting people, she would have thrown the hostages in too.

"Actually, even if she handed over the account books—"

Xue Ping glanced at him.

Old Man Feng cleared his throat, and changed the topic: "Your Majesty has a fancy to the Cheng family, so he might not deal with us."

Xue Ping said: "That's because there is no reason to put it on the bright side. If everyone knows about the trouble, His Majesty has to deal with it if he doesn't want to deal with it!"

Mr. Feng said disapprovingly, "Isn't it enough to find someone to take the blame?"

Xue Ping was about to lose his patience: "Trafficking iron ore privately, don't say that we really did it, even if it wasn't, such a mistake happened under our noses, His Majesty would like to kill us."

Mr. Feng sat back on the chair: "This is not okay, and that is not okay. Is it possible that I will be blackmailed by that yellow-haired girl?"

Xue Ping didn't speak.

Patriarch Mu thought of something, and wondered: "Why did she say to hand over the account books to Eunuch Jin instead of His Majesty? Could it be that this yellow-haired girl has already boarded Eunuch Jin's boat?"

Eunuch Jin is just an eunuch, although he is favored, most people would either go to the yamen to beat the drums, or try to face the saint.

Xue Ping thoughtfully said: "This girl's origin is very strange. She suddenly appeared before the holy election, and suddenly turned the Cheng family upside down. If there is no expert guidance, I don't believe it."

Mr. Feng was dumbfounded: "You mean...the master behind her is Eunuch Jin?"

Eunuch Jin is not an ordinary eunuch, he is the close servant of the King of Nanjiang, and if he listens to the wind, there are always a few words that can be heard by the King of Nanjiang.

Xue Ping murmured, "I'm afraid she's here to investigate that matter."

...

After a few people left, it happened to be lunch time.

The whole family sits around the main room, and the three little tiger heads must also have their own exclusive seats.

Xiaohu's exclusive seat is Wei Xu.

The second tiger is Cheng Sang.

The big tiger is Yu Chixiu.

Du Hu was a little awkward, he already regarded himself as a four-year-old boy, and he was not used to eating on other people's lap.

Yu Chixiu: "Cub of a mortal, don't move around, or this god..."

Dumb stuffed a bun into his mouth.

Uncle Quan made lunch.

Can't say it's bad, it's really bad.

Cheng Sang and San Xiaozhi stuck out their tongues out of disgust.

Wei Xu: Gentlemen don't stick out their tongues.

He put his meal in Wei Ting's bowl in disgust.

Wei Ting: "..."

After dinner, San Xiaozhi and Cheng Sang went to take a nap.

Wei Xu also went to bed.

The three hostages were tied up in his room, and if they tried to escape, they would have big ears and lost their front teeth.

Uncle Quan took Ah Fu to clean up the house.

Su Xiaoxiao, Wei Ting, Mei Ji, and Yu Chixiu sat in the hall to discuss matters.

Mei Ji asked: "Those old fellows just left just like that. Is it true that they plan to redeem people with one hundred thousand gold each? Will they play some tricks? For example... find some experts to rob people and steal them." book?"

Wei Ting said: "The person surnamed Feng may make this calculation, but the person surnamed Xue will not."

Although he didn't show up just now, he has been observing outside the back door.

Among the three, Xue Ping is the oldest and cunning, Feng Aozhu is impulsive, and Mu Tan is younger, so he hasn't shown a too strong side for the time being.

Feng Aozhu listens to Xue Ping in everything, Mu Tan alone can't hold back the two of them, and Xue Ping is the only one who follows.

Mei Ji nodded after hearing this: "Why do the three of them have such a good relationship? You see, the Cheng family, Ji family, Yue family and Yin family of the four great families are not monolithic."

Su Xiaoxiao said: "They have common interests involved, and everyone is involved, and they can't be alone, they can only hug each other tightly."

Mei Ji was thoughtful.

Su Xiaoxiao looked at Wei Ting: "If it were you, what would you do?"

Wei Ting looked at Su Xiaoxiao: "Are you referring to the matter of the ransom? I will delay as much as possible to see if there is any room for change. I may also contact the Temple of the Holy Maiden and ask the Holy Maiden to come forward. The Holy Maiden She is one in a thousand masters, if she comes to rob someone and steal the booklet, she probably won't miss it."

Su Xiaoxiao nodded: "Yes, this is what they should normally think. If they really pay the ransom on time, it can only explain one thing."

"What?" Meiji asked curiously.

Su Xiaoxiao said seriously: "They want to settle this matter quickly and send us down the mountain, lest we dig out a secret bigger than 300,000 taels of gold."

"What secrets are hidden in the mine?"

Meiji scratched her heart and lungs, extremely curious!

Wei Ting looked at Yu Chixiu: "It's been a few days since Fusu came to the mine, you went to see him last night, what did he say?"

Fusu is their informant in the mine.

As early as when Uncle Quan mentioned that the Cheng family had mines, Su Xiaoxiao and Wei Ting asked Fusu to pretend to be "trafficked" into the mine as a slave.

Yuchixiu said: "The scope of his activities is limited, and he has not touched any suspicious places for the time being."

"Black... black..."

Cheng Sang's suppressed and terrified voice came from inside the house,

Su Xiaoxiao hurried to her room.

"Mom, what's wrong with you?"

Cheng Sang had already got up from the bed, sat on the chair, scribbled on the table with his fingertips, and muttered: "Black... black..."

Su Xiaoxiao thought for a while, took out a charcoal pencil from her purse, and let Cheng Sang hold it in her hand.

He took another piece of white paper and spread it on the table.

"Mom, do you still remember where it is black? Can you draw it?"

Cheng Sang's hands trembled slightly from fear.

Su Xiaoxiao couldn't bear to let her recall, but in order to unravel all the mysteries and make her recover as soon as possible, she must be ruthless at this time.

"Afraid... afraid..."

Cheng Sang felt wronged.

Su Xiaoxiao knelt down and looked at her, and said softly, "Weiwei is with mother, don't be afraid, mother, think about where that place is, and Weiwei goes to light an oil lamp."

Cheng Sang muttered, "Oil lamp?"

Su Xiaoxiao smiled: "Yes, oil lamps, if one is not enough, just two, if two are not enough, there are many, many more, and it must be brightly illuminated!"

Cheng Sang murmured in a daze: "It's bright."

Su Xiaoxiao nodded: "Yeah! It's brighter than this room! Mom, do you agree?"

Cheng Sang looked around.

During the day, there is plenty of light, and the room is bright.

"Okay, Weiwei is going to light the oil lamp..." Cheng Sang was persuaded, and began to draw crookedly.

She draws very attentively.

Su Xiaoxiao and Mei Ji, Wei Ting, and Yu Chixiu at the door did not disturb her.

Several people just watched quietly.

The sunlight came in and fell on Cheng Sang's slightly silvery white hair.

She has the clear eyes of a child.

People look at it, it seems that the soul has been washed.

Finally, after she finished painting, she was sleepy and fell asleep in Su Xiaoxiao's arms.

Mei Ji came over, carried her back to the bed, and covered her with a thin quilt.

No matter how curious Meiji is, she doesn't look at the picture first, but takes care of Cheng Sang first.

Su Xiaoxiao took out the drawings.

The four of them stared at the drawings, dumbfounded for a while.

Mei Ji: "This painting... seems a bit casual."

Cheng Sang hasn't held a pen for too long, and he is no longer good at drawing.

The place that should be straight is curved, and the place that should be curved is even more curved.

"This is the entrance." Wei Ting pointed to a big black spot on the portrait.

Yu Chixiu: "You can recognize this too?"

Wei Ting carefully observed the pattern of Cheng Sang's writing, took another piece of paper, and repaired the map again.

Yu Chixiu suddenly realized, pointed to the last passage and said, "Ah, I recognize this place! I went there last night! It's an abandoned mine! It is said that many people died in it, so it was sealed."

"How did you die?" Mei Ji asked.

Yu Chixiu said: "I don't know, there was no illness or disaster, and there was no mining accident, just died like that, it's quite evil."

Su Xiaoxiao paused for a moment, then said: "Maybe it's just a rumor they released to keep people away from here."

Mei Ji asked: "When it gets dark, shall we go explore?"

Su Xiaoxiao shook her head: "I can't wait until it gets dark."

"Why?" Meiji didn't understand.

Su Xiaoxiao explained: "We will get the ransom when it gets dark. If we continue to stay, they will definitely realize that we have another purpose, and maybe they will strengthen the security here."

Wei Ting took it seriously: "I'll go now."

Su Xiaoxiao said: "I'm with you."

Wei Ting pursed his lips.

Su Xiaoxiao said: "I have the means to protect myself, don't worry about me."

Wei Ting knew that he couldn't persuade her, once she made up her mind, she would go secretly.

Su Xiaoxiao said to Meiji: "If the three of them arrive and I haven't come back, delay for me."

Mei Ji patted her proud little chest: "Don't worry, wrap it on me!"

Finally, the secret is about to be revealed, how about asking for a monthly pass?
