C645 Deep in the Gallery
Hsiao Jingdong's Jing Dong Merchant Guild had been doing business here for so many years, it could be said that they had quietly made a fortune. Their overall strength was much stronger than the top clans in the Nanshui City!
All the powerful and powerful families would ask the capable people to find a good spot for them to build their own homes!
The Xiao family was no exception. Relying on the hundreds of kilometers of Shennong Slope, halfway up a mountain range that was closest to the city center, they built a huge manor!
By the time Ren Qianyuv and his team rushed over, the sky had already turned pale due to the star shift.
The Xiao Family's courtyard had red bricks and white tiles, a glazed roof, and brightly lit lanterns. The area was much more luxurious and magnificent than a villa atop the Yuhua Mountain!
"Mr. Ren, you've worked hard tonight. Do you need to go and rest first?"
In the magnificent villa's hall, Hsiao Jingdong arranged for the family doctor team to carry Hsiao Lang down for treatment and then sat him down. After the servants served tea and snacks for him, he then tried him out and asked.
"No need! I have things to do! In order to avoid any unnecessary problems, I think it would be better to get the Resurrection Lily as soon as possible! " Ren Qianyuv looked indifferent and did not appreciate Hsiao Jingdong's courtesy at all!
"Um... Mr. Ren, I think this girl has just recovered from a serious illness and needs a good rest. How about you let my family doctor team diagnose her? "
"There's no need!" Ren Qianyuv's eyes turned cold and a hint of ridicule flashed across the corner of his mouth. He was starting to get impatient.
Xiao Yao shook her head, "I'm not going anywhere, I'm just with Mr Ren!"
Hsiao Jingdong smiled awkwardly but politely. He didn't insist and brought the two of them to the mountain behind the villa.
Zhu Wushi originally wanted to follow along, but Hsiao Jingdong made an excuse and let him go away to treat Hsiao Lang's wounds.
Those with a discerning eye would know that Zhu Wushi was being petty when he leaked the Xiao family's treasure. However, Zhu Wushi had no choice but to admit defeat when his master couldn't find anything wrong with treating his disciple's injury!
The three of them passed through the house and came to a building in the garden.
The building was not very tall, but the door was built with heavy lead. In addition to normal face recognition and iris recognition systems, it also had 24 mechanical encryption locks, which was even more stringent than the security measures in the bank vault!
Hsiao Jingdong took a full five to six minutes to open the door.
"The reason why the lead block is used is to prevent the spiritual energy of the Resurrection Lily from leaking out and being noticed by the experts! The password is to guard against a supreme thief. I hope the two of you don't take offense to it! "Please!" Hsiao Jingdong bowed and made a gesture of "please" as he smiled coyly.
Ren Qianyuv gazed into the distance. The Cold Flame converged to see that behind the thick lead door, there was only a long and narrow underground corridor that connected to the mountain cave and went deep into the mountain range.
Waves of cold wind blew out from within. Judging from the depth of this corridor, it was probably dozens of meters below the ground. It probably went straight to the bottom of the mountain range.
"Mr Ren, we … Let's not go in! "
Xiao Yao had only seen such a layout in the history books. It was the tomb of the Emperor!
It was chilly and claustrophobic inside.
Xiao Yao frowned slightly with a worried expression on her face.
"Don't worry!"
Ren Qianyuv saw her expression and lightly patted her shoulder. He took advantage of the situation to grab her slender fingers and walked inside.
Logically speaking, Xiao Yao really shouldn't have brought her in with him. However, from the way they had parted, it would have been even more dangerous if he had left her outside alone!
Judging from Hsiao Jingdong's actions of evading the subject several times, it was very likely that he regretted bringing out the Resurrection Lily. As for what methods he would use, Ren Qianyuv was not clear!
With Xiao Yao by her side, Nie Li could save himself the trouble of being threatened.
In the end, if Hsiao Jingdong dared to do anything abnormal, the Xiao family would not leave a single person alive!
As long as the Resurrection Lily was here, it was not in vain for him to come here!0
Pata!
After the three entered the corridor, the door automatically closed and locked.
"The Resurrection Lily is down there. We'll see it when we get to the end of the corridor!" Hsiao Jingdong pointed to the front and led Ren Qianyuv towards the bottom.
