Watching the old magician's clumsy performance, I glanced at a few bricks on the ground and prepared to eliminate harm to the people on the spot.
But soon a group of people from the Qing family rushed over, dragged the old magic stick up from the ground, and led the crowd directly towards the city.
The crowd of onlookers was quickly dispersed, and instead, nearly a hundred of us outsiders had our hands tied with ropes, and were then led to a deserted mansion in the city.
The old magician was standing in the queue behind me. After looking around with his turbid old eyes, he whispered in my ear with a stern look: "Brother, what do you think they are arresting us for?"
I rolled my eyes and said, "Aren't you a descendant of the Tianji Sect? Wouldn't you know it just by doing some math?"
"Hehe, we are members of the Tianji Sect. Merely investigating the secrets is not a mundane matter. The glory left by our ancestors is no longer there, but there are still rules."
Seeing the shameless look on the old magician's face, I began to regret why I didn't serve him with bricks on the road just now. Alas, I finally relented.
I glanced around and saw that hundreds of people, including me, were surrounded in the courtyard of the mansion. This was an abandoned mansion, but it was kept clean. Not long after, a few figures walked in from outside. I looked up. , and found that the leader was a young woman in her early twenties, with a touch of pink and red, a face with oval seeds and small lips. Although it was not a beautiful woman, it was enough to attract the attention of many men.
No, the crowd around me suddenly became agitated when they saw this woman, but they didn't look at her directly. She walked straight to the door and glanced at the crowd, and immediately some people from the Qing family took the initiative to join her. , said respectfully: "Third Miss, according to your instructions, these people are all outsiders."
When the woman who was called the third lady heard this, a trace of displeasure flashed in her eyes. She stared at the man beside her and said, "Is this all there is?"
The man's face turned pale under the gaze of the third lady, and he said: "To answer the third lady, there have been too few outsiders coming to Qingcheng recently. We also spent a lot of effort to catch these people today. The number of people you set every day Too many, so are we..."
"There are useless things that outsiders don't have, so why don't you grab some from the city? What time is it now?" the third lady said angrily.
"However, people in the city are not easy to fool. If someone who is related to our Qing family is caught, will trouble happen..."
"If you are so timid about doing something, get out and accept your punishment!"
As soon as the third lady said this, the young man from the Qing family who was so powerful in the city turned pale and quickly knelt down to beg for mercy. Unfortunately, the third lady didn't even look at him. Soon there were two tall and strong men. Han dragged the young man out. A few seconds later, with a scream, the young man was held down by two strong men at the door, and then one of his fingers was cut off on the spot.
"If we can't gather enough people tomorrow, I won't chop off even one of your fingers." The third lady said without raising her head.
The young man from the Qing family lay on the ground in fear. Even though his hands were dripping with blood, he didn't even dare to breathe again...
When I saw this scene, I couldn't help but take a deep breath. This third lady looks good, but her behavior is really vicious.
I heard from Nie Zifeng before that the current head of the Qing family is named Qing Yansong, who is most likely my grandfather who I have never met. It is said that he only has three daughters, and our mother Qing Ling is the eldest. I looked at the third lady in front of me who was less than five meters away from me. I guessed that she was the daughter of one of my mother's two younger sisters. She was similar in age to me. In terms of seniority, she seemed to have to call me cousin. …
Just when I was thinking about whether to go forward and declare my identity, the third lady had already turned around and opened the inner door of the house. There was a sharp sound of metal squeezing. The inner door was opened, and it seemed to be covered with a layer of copper.
A large iron gate watered by water.
Everyone focused their attention on the big iron door, and saw that the third lady suddenly bit her fingertips and printed blood on a groove on the big iron door. The big iron door trembled for a moment, and then slowly opened, revealing a dark stripe inside.
Stairway.
"Bring them in." The third lady said expressionlessly.
It was freezing inside the big iron gate, and many coolie men quickly closed their legs when they saw it, unwilling to go inside.
"Miss, I'm passing through Qingcheng. What are you trying to do by arresting me here?"
"Yes, they arrested us here for no reason. Even if they want to kill us, we must give an explanation."
The coolie men complained that their lives were their own, and no one wanted to hand them over so easily.
The third lady clapped her hands with a chill in her eyes. Immediately a follower behind her carried a plate, which actually contained a large plate of gold bars.
"Our Qing family is going to dig a tunnel. Anyone who is willing to work for us can get a gold bar and leave on his own after ten days."
Many of the hundreds of people are coolies. They came to Qingcheng to find opportunities to make money. Now they are attracted by this gold bar. They all say that money can make all the difference, let alone a big living person.
.
In a short while, dozens of coolie men rubbed their hands, rushed forward to collect the gold bars, and then stepped into the dark staircase tunnel. For them, ten days were exchanged for several years of hard work.
Living money is an irresistible temptation.
But there are also people who look down upon gold bars.
For example, I, for example, the heir of the Tianji sect with sly eyebrows and sly eyes... The old magic stick's eyes are always on the third lady's body, no, to be precise, it should be called the chest. His eyes are really accurate when looking at people. No, his eyes are always looking.
, a pair of calloused old hands had already grasped a ball of air out of thin air, as if comparing the size of the third lady's chest...
The aloof Third Miss probably wanted to know what the old magician was thinking, so there must be no way for him to survive. After a while, only a few dozen of the hundreds of people were left standing there. They were not coolie men.
, I would rather refuse the gold bar than risk my own life by being confused.
The third lady came over and said, "Why don't you go in?"
A middle-aged man behind me said disdainfully: "I'm a businessman. That gold bar is not enough for me to pay for a month's drinking. I don't care. You'd better let me go. I'm not interested in digging any tunnels for you."
.”
The middle-aged man raised his head, as if he was extremely proud to say such words to such a superior woman. Unfortunately, the person standing in front of him was not an ordinary woman.
The third lady only blinked her eyes, and two strong men rushed up like a cold wind, and immediately grabbed the middle-aged man like a chicken. The next second, in front of everyone, the middle-aged man's entire arm was beaten by the strong man.
After it was unscrewed, the poor middle-aged man passed out before he could even scream.
"Who else..." The third lady spoke. Under her eyes, the remaining dozen or so people were filled with fear and anxiety, and everyone fell into despair.
This damn third lady is really murderous without blinking an eye.
The old magician next to me was also surprised. Just now, he was looking at the third lady's chest with great interest. Now his face turned pale. But this guy is really not a thing. Before everyone could recover, he suddenly pushed
Got me.
I suddenly became the focus of the field. Just when I was about to deal with the old magician, who knew that this guy had already jumped off the doorstep, first bowed respectfully to the third lady, and peeked at her from the corner of his eye.
After filling his chest, he turned around and pointed at me righteously, and said sadly: "Okay, little guy, we have told you, listen to the third lady and follow suit, you will definitely not lose anything, why don't you
Listen to us..."
I estimate that the old magic gun is really a talent, and his ability to direct and act is really good. No, after he finished speaking, the third lady's eyes quickly fell on me, and a sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth, saying: "Qingwu Qingwen, take him
The arms were removed and then thrown in to dig tunnels..."
