Chapter 489 - 489- Deal
“He’S Qin Tie, don’t hurt him.”
Su Qing turned around and saw Xiao Zeyu holding a knife against Qin Tie. She hurriedly called out to him.
“He is Qin Tie?”
Xiao Zeyu couldn’t believe it. After experiencing the fake Qin Tie and the fake
Qin Yuer, he now felt that everyone was fake.
“It’s very likely.”
Su Qing wasn’t entirely sure. At least, he hadn’t heard Qin Tie admit his name
was Qin Tie. It was just her guess.
Xiao Zeyu saw that Su Qing wasn’t sure either, so he turned around and asked
his uncle’s master,
“Martial Uncle, have you seen the real Qin Tie?”
-I’ve met him once, but Qin Tie was still very young then, so I’m not sure.”
Zhou Bo’s answer was uncertain. He did not recognize the fake Qin Tie from before. After more than 20 years, his appearance had changed.
“You’ll know after a test.”
Su Qing raised his eyebrows. If Zhou Bo tested Qin Tie, he would lie if he knew nothing about traps.
“This is a good idea. Let’s wake him up first.
Zhou Bo looked at Su Qing with a smile. The girl was brilliant.
Xiao Zeyu gave the antidote to Qin Tie. When Qin Tie regained consciousness, he saw three people staring at him. He was so scared that he immediately got up and was full of vigilance:
“What do you want?”
“You are Qin Tie?”
“… What are you doing?”
Qin Tie still did not answer directly. He had lost his trust in Su Qing and was now on guard against her.
“If you are Qin Tie, we will save you. If you are one of the Five Ghosts, see your master!”
Xiao Zeyu tossed the Luan saber in his hand, threatening him. “If you aren’t Qin
Tie, we would take your life.”
Hearing Xiao Zeyu’s words, Qin Tie was no longer afraid of them. He nodded and admitted,”
“I am Qin Tie.”
“Since you are Qin Tie, you set up the traps in this treasure cave. If you help us break the traps, we will save you from Five Poison Valley.”
Xiao Zeyu saw that he had admitted it, so he pointed to the tunnel and had Qin
Tie lead the way, leading them into the treasure cave.
A hint of hesitation appeared in Qin Tie’s eyes, but he quickly chose to listen. If he didn’t listen, he would die now. He still wanted to avenge his daughter!
With Qin Tie leading the way, Zhou Bo did not let his guard down. He kept an eye on Qin Tie’s traps. If Qin Tie did anything strange, the old man would notice it. However, Qin Tie was still honest and did not play any tricks.
With him leading the way, there were no obstacles. Those mechanisms that required time to crack were all blocked by Qin Tie. Very soon, they arrived at the cave where the treasure was hidden.
The Five Ghosts Sect accumulated wealth over the years was all here. The two huge caves were filled to the brim. When the torches shone, they glittered like a golden mountain. The rare jewels were all packed in boxes. There were over thirty boxes of jewels, and one box was filled with banknotes. The wealth of these treasures could rival that of a country. Perhaps even the treasures in the national treasury now were not as much as the Five Ghosts’.
“Not bad, move back.”
Xiao Zeyu was in high spirits. This was indeed a pleasant surprise. Even the heavens were helping him.
“Qing’er, you are my lucky star.”
Xiao Zeyu held Su Qing’s hand and looked at her gratefully. From the moment he met her, everything had been smooth sailing for him. Now, everything was ready. All that was left was the east wind.
If he didn’t lack money, he could recruit soldiers quickly. He could attack the capital on a large scale next spring, and his wish to avenge his father would immediately come true.
“I don’t object to that.”
Su Qing made a rare joke with Xiao Zeyu. If the Five Ghosts hadn’t come to kill her, they wouldn’t have crossed mountains and rivers to clear out the Five Ghosts’ nest. This was like the heavens sending money to them. They couldn’t reject it.
“How do we transport it back?”
It was not easy to transport so much gold and silver back. Even a hundred carriages might not be able to carry it.
■■We can’t hire ordinary people. We can only let the Xiao family’s army dress up
as ordinary people and transport them back.
Xiao Zeyu pondered for a moment. There were still seven or eight cities along the way, all guarded by the Wan Clan Army. The civilians couldn’t transport them, so they could only return to Luo City and bring their troops over to escort them.
“Why don’t we take down these ten cities?”
Su Qing thought arrogantly. Wouldn’t it be unimpeded if he got through all of them?
“It’s a little far-fetched. We don’t have enough troops right now.” Xiao Zeyu shook his head. With the current strength of the Xiao Family Army, it was simply impossible for the Wan Family Army to deploy so many soldiers in these cities.
“It’S safe to stay here. Come and get some when you need it.” Zhou Bo felt there was no need to go through so much trouble with such an excellent location to hide the treasure.
■■We don’t know how many of the Five Ghosts are still alive. It’s not safe to stay here.”
Su Qing shook her head. They had killed the Five Ghosts but hadn’t wiped out the Five Ghosts Sect. If the fish caught in the net knew about this treasure and reported it to the imperial court, they would be helping Wan Yulin.
“You can wipe out the Five Ghosts Sect.
Qin Tie had been listening silently at the side. He only completely believed them after hearing Su Qing’s words. He wanted revenge. He wanted to kill all the people of the Five Ghosts Sect.
“That’s a good idea, but where is their nest?
Su Qing had wanted to kill all the people of the Five Ghosts Sect in the first place. This was the only way to ensure the safety of her parents.
“I know.”
Qin Tie volunteered. His eyes were filled with hatred. He wanted to avenge his daughter.
“Alright, lead the way.”
Su Qing saw the hatred in Qin Tie’s eyes and thought of how he said these people had killed his daughter. Then, she would take him along so he could lead the way.
“I’ll go with you.”
Xiao Zeyu was still worried about Su Qing but not about his Martial Uncle and his ten bodyguards.
“You can stay here.”
Su Qing stopped Xiao Zeyu. Uncle Master’s martial arts were average, and the ten soldiers’ were even worse than his. She was afraid that they would not be able to guard the place.
“I won’t let you go.”
The gold, silver, and jewelry weren’t as crucial as Su Qing, so Xiao Zeyu insisted on following them.
“That’s easy. Once all the mechanisms are opened, outsiders won’t be able to enter.”
Qin Tie suggested. He was afraid that Su Qing alone wouldn’t be able to do it, so he trusted Xiao Zeyu more.
“Alright.”
Everyone agreed to open all the mechanisms and retreated outside to wait. The bodyguard wanted to follow Xiao Zeyu and protect him, but he was forced to stay behind. “Watch the entrance.”
Zhou Bo went up to Su Qing. “Qing girl, do you have more wine?”
Su Qing shook her head helplessly. The old man’s alcohol addiction was acting up again.
She asked Xiao Qi to pour a pot of wine for Zhou Bo and left her there to protect him, preventing the Five Ghosts from secretly poisoning them.
Qin Tie led the way. Su Qing and Xiao Zeyu followed him to the Five Ghosts’ lair. Qin Tie walked very quickly. Their belief in avenging his daughter supported him. He wished to grow wings and fly to the Five Ghosts’ lair to bum these bastards.
Su Qing and Xiao Zeyu followed Qin Tie to the bottom of a cliff. This cliff looked highly steep, and there was almost no way up. There was a village on the cliff. This village was built against the mountain, and dense forests covered it. If one did not look carefully, they would not be able to see it.
■’There’s a slide here that you can go up and down.”
Qin Tie pointed at the cliff. It was not like the Five Ghosts could fly up. They needed tools to help them get up and down the cliff.
“I’ll go open the mechanism.”
Qin Tie volunteered to look for a trap. Xiao Zeyu followed beside him to keep an eye on him, preventing him from playing tricks..
