Chapter 234 Nightmare
Chapter 234 Nightmare
Jiang Lili and Xin Che got hold of County Magistrate Huang's secret treasury.
Because County Magistrate Huang had entered the small vault with the birdcage clock, Jiang Lili now opened the switch of the small vault with ease and slipped in with Xin Che.
What you see with your naked eyes is different from what you see on the camera footage. When Jiang Lili saw such a large jade bed in front of her, she was visually shocked!
If you knock off a piece at random, one gram can be sold for at least 3000 yuan.
Jiang Lili's saliva was almost flowing.
Xin Che looked at the jade bed and said, "This jade is of the best quality. It can warm the body. Lying on it will keep you warm in winter and cool in summer."
Jiang Lili was secretly shocked: "It's amazing that the governor of such a remote county can be so rich."
Xin Che seemed to be accustomed to such corruption. He said in a deep voice: "As long as he has the authority and the will, he can find a way to get it."
Xin Che blinked: "Are you going to cast a spell again?"
"You still understand me."
Jiang Lili had a wicked smile on her face, and her dimples seemed to be hiding evil intentions.
"Okay, I'll keep watch."
Xin Che consciously raised his foot and prepared to go out of the room, reminding him: "Be careful."
"Hey, wait!" Jiang Lili called him, "Just stay here, I'm a little scared."
She was not afraid of the dark, but due to plan needs, she was forced to watch several classic horror movies such as "The Grudge" and "The Ring" recently, and downloaded a lot of horror background music. When she was alone, she could easily think of these clips and felt a little scared, so she still had to have an accomplice to accompany her.
Xin Che glanced at Jiang Lili in surprise, then walked to a position not too far behind her and said, "Okay, I'll accompany you."
With Xin Che guarding behind her, Jiang Lili felt at ease.
She clicked on the personal favorites on the chat group interface and began to search through the things in County Magistrate Huang’s vault.
Xin Che saw rows of vases, porcelain plates, calligraphy and paintings, and gold and silver ornaments and utensils on the wooden shelves disappearing before his eyes.
Even though he had seen many storms and waves, he was stunned for a long time when he saw such a magical scene.
He was once again convinced that his prince's wife was a fairy who had descended to earth.
Xin Che watched the entire process of Jiang Lili "using magic" and became more and more silent.
The gods will leave the mortal world and return to the fairyland one day, right?
He is a mortal, how can he compare with gods?
Xin Che has always been high-spirited and unstoppable in his self-confidence. He stands tall on the battlefield, and one man can block the passage of ten thousand.
But now, facing Jiang Lili, who was like a little fairy, Xin Che became uncertain for the first time.
Perhaps the gods saw in his meritorious service in guarding the border for many years and saving the people from dire straits, and had pity on him, so they came down to earth to save his entire family when he was in exile.
It was he who created a friendship that shouldn't have existed.
The night was as cool as water, and Xin Che's eyes were full of clarity.
"Bonus harvest, bumper harvest!"
After Jiang Lili cleaned out the small treasury, she turned around and saw Xin Che with his eyes lowered. He was standing in the shadows, looking like he was about to fall apart.
Jiang Lili: ???
What happened? Was it because the richness of Huang County Governor was compared with his exile that he was shocked?
But putting aside the fact that Xin Che is not the type of person who cares about material things, their new home in the mountains is also very luxurious!
"what happened?"
Xin Che looked up when he heard this and smiled: "Nothing, our little fairy is really amazing!"
His smile was somewhat sad, very much like an abandoned stray dog.
Jiang Lili dragged away Xin Che who was still daydreaming: "Hey, buddy, let's move to the next destination!"
Xin Che's thoughts were brought back by Jiang Lili's word "accomplice".
"Are we in cahoots?"
"Yeah, of course!"
Jiang Lili answered with certainty.
She glanced at the empty vault and said, "We did this together. You are not allowed to deny your debt, regret it, or leave me alone."
"it is good."
Xin Che's tightly furrowed brows relaxed. He was not the type to worry about gains and losses.
In that case, every day I can spend with her is a day.
"By the way, aren't you good at drawing?"
Jiang Lili took out a blueprint from her sleeve and showed it to Xin Che: "Can you draw this on the wall?"
The drawing on the paper is an abstract horror-style painting. From a distance, it looks like a pair of eyes and is very creepy.
Jiang Lili had already taken out a bucket of red paint that Xiaopang had bought in advance from her personal collection.
"Let me try."
Xin Che took the brush and paint from Jiang Lili. Jiang Lili turned on the night light, and Xin Che used the light to paint on the wall of the vault.
This painting focused more on the meaning than the form. In less than two quarters of an hour, the horrific graffiti on the wall was completed.
Amid the red wall, a pair of eyes are extremely creepy, as if being stared into the abyss.
Jiang Lili wanted to look, but Xin Che covered her eyes and told her not to look back.
"You'll have nightmares tonight."
The two men left the vault quietly.
Not long after walking out of the vault, Xin Che, who had excellent hearing, heard footsteps approaching.
Xin Che subconsciously pulled Jiang Lili into his arms and took her to hide behind the pillars. Their figures were obscured by the pillars and shadows.
"Shh-"
Xin Che placed his index finger in front of his lips.
Jiang Lili nodded in understanding. It was so convenient to have a humanoid radar!
After a while, footsteps were heard.
From the sound, there were two people passing by.
Jiang Lili heard a passerby instruct another person, "Ask the kitchen to cook a bowl of brown rice and barley soup in the morning. The master hasn't been sleeping well lately and has nightmares all the time."
Jiang Lili recognized the voice as that of the steward of County Magistrate Huang.
The female voice that was ordered by the housekeeper said, "Brown rice and barley soup? Does this stuff work?"
The housekeeper sighed: "Just take it as a psychological comfort, so that I can get scolded less. Remember to boil it, boil a big pot, so that we, the people below, appear to have done something."
After the housekeeper gave instructions to the maids in the mansion, he left, and the courtyard returned to silence.
Xin Che captured the key information: "Huang County Magistrate's nightmare?"
Jiang Lili touched her nose and replied in a low voice: "Maybe I have done too many bad things?"
He Xiuzhu's business was thriving under County Magistrate Huang. In fact, he was secretly in contact with the County Magistrate's deputy, the County Chancellor.
County Magistrate Huang only knows how to spend his time drinking and partying and does nothing. The affairs of the government office are all handled by the County Magistrate. The County Magistrate is actually very resentful, but dares not speak out.
After Jiang Lili came up with a scam for Magistrate Huang, she asked the shopkeeper Ma to give Junchen a medicine. This medicine was mixed with tea, and people who drank it would not sleep well, start to have nightmares, and become distracted.
This medicine was a recipe kindly provided by squad leader Qi Yun. The squad leader's father, the old imperial physician Qin, was a capable assistant to the queen mother, who was the champion of palace fighting. He had too many of these insidious recipes in stock.
Jiang Lili copied the prescription and asked the pharmacy owner Fan Qiu to help prepare the medicine.
