He turned around and went back to his room.

Liu Lingqing was still pointing her gun at Ji Bai, her posture unchanged.

"They're back?" She breathed a sigh of relief. "What about the others?"

"It's been taken care of." Huang Tang looked at Ji Bai, who was squatting on the ground. "That kid didn't pull any tricks, did he?"

Liu Lingqing shook her head: "They were very honest and didn't move at all."

Ji Bai looked up, his face filled with shock: "Big brother, you killed them all?"

Huang Tang glanced at him indifferently: "Is that strange?"

Ji Bai swallowed hard, and the way he looked at Huang Tang completely changed.

Those five men all looked fierce and menacing; they were clearly not to be trifled with.

Huang Tang went out alone and returned a few minutes later, saying that he had "taken care of it."

What kind of monster is this?

"Let's go."

Huang Tang walked to the bookshelf, found the mechanism Ji Bai had mentioned, and gently turned it.

With a "click," the bookshelf slowly slid open, revealing a dark doorway.

A cold, damp wind blew out from inside, carrying a musty smell.

Huang Tang peered out and saw that the stairs were steep and bottomless.

He turned to look at Ji Bai: "You go first."

Ji Bai's face turned pale: "Big brother, I'm really afraid of the dark..."

"If you don't leave," Huang Tang said, pulling out a short knife with a blank expression, "I'll kill you right now."

Ji Bai glanced at the knife, then at the dark doorway, gritted his teeth, and braced himself to go inside.

"I'll leave... I'll leave, okay...?"

As he walked down, he muttered to himself, "I should have known better than to come... My life is so miserable..."

Huang Tang and Liu Lingqing followed behind, shining flashlights.

The staircase was very long, and after three turns, I finally saw the bottom.

Ji Bai was the first to step onto the ground, letting out a long breath: "We're here! We're not dead!"

Huang Tang walked out of the staircase and looked around.

A huge underground space.

The flashlight beam couldn't reach the end; only the vague outline of mountains could be seen in the distance.

He took out a lighter and lit the candles on the wall one by one.

Soon, the entire basement was lit up.

Then all three of them froze.

Before them lay mountains of grain.

Flour, rice, millet, corn, red beans, mung beans... bags were neatly stacked, piled up like small mountains.

Huang Tang estimated it to be at least several tons!

"This..." Liu Lingqing covered her mouth, "How long will this last us?"

"Twenty-five people, three meals a day, for at least three years."

Huang Tang made a calculation and couldn't help but swallow hard.

They have no shortage of meat now, but staple foods have always been a problem.

After all, you get tired of eating meat every day.

These flours and rice are just what's needed!

"We've struck it rich!"

Liu Lingqing jumped up excitedly.

Huang Tang opened the system space and began scanning.

Bags of flour disappeared, bags of rice disappeared...

Corn, millet, red beans...

He pocketed them all.

Ten minutes later, the entire basement was completely cleaned up, not even a few grains of rice that had spilled on the ground were left behind.

Ji Bai stood to the side, staring wide-eyed at the empty basement.

"Big brother...are you moving?"

Huang Tang clapped his hands, in high spirits.

He looked at Ji Bai: "Do you want it?"

Ji Bai froze for a moment, then shook his head frantically: "No, no! I didn't do anything! These things should have been yours!"

Huang Tang smiled and said, "You're quite sensible."

Ji Bai gave an awkward laugh, but his heart was bleeding.

That much grain is enough for him to eat for ten years.

But he knew very well that life was more important than food!

Liu Lingqing quietly tugged at Huang Tang's sleeve and whispered, "What did he do?"

Huang Tang glanced at Ji Bai and lowered his voice: "Kill him, he's no longer of any value. Keeping him alive would be troublesome if he stabbed us in the back."

Liu Lingqing hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

Ji Bai happened to overhear this.

His legs went weak, and he almost knelt down: "Big brother! Don't kill me! My talent really works! If you don't believe me, I can show you!"

Huang Tang raised an eyebrow: "How do you perform?"

"Next room! The rooms I book are sure to have unexpected surprises!" Ji Bai patted his chest confidently. "If not, you can kill me then!"

Huang Tang thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay, let's go."

The three left the basement and went up to the second floor of the castle.

Ji Bai walked at the front, as nervous as a startled rabbit.

He closed his eyes and pushed open the door to the first room.

The three people went in, and then stood there dumbfounded.

There were two maids in the room, neither of them dressed, embracing each other and doing something indescribable.

The posture was peculiar, and the expression was very focused...

Liu Lingqing's face flushed red, and she quickly turned her head away.

Ji Bai blushed and stammered, "This...this..."

As Huang Tang watched this scene, the "Time Stop" series of short films inexplicably popped into his mind.

He quickly shook his head, trying to banish the thought.

"Is this the surprise you were talking about?" Liu Lingqing glared at Ji Bai.

Ji Bai was almost in tears: "An accident! This is absolutely an accident! I've never had this much luck before!"

"I'll give you another chance," Huang Tang said.

The three left the room and continued walking forward.

The second room.

The door opened, revealing a magnificent and ridiculously large interior.

This is the king's bedroom!

Then, the three of them saw something they shouldn't have seen.

The queen and a young guard were lying in bed...

At this moment, it looks exactly like a work of art that has been displayed here for who knows how many years.

Liu Lingqing couldn't take it anymore and grabbed Ji Bai by the collar: "This guy's useless! Just kill him already!"

Ji Bai was almost in tears: "It's not like that! I used to be really lucky! Today I must have encountered a ghost!"

Huang Tang didn't speak, his gaze swept across the room, and then suddenly stopped.

In the corner, a dusty box lay quietly.

He walked over and blew on it.

As the dust settled, the original color of the box was revealed...

"Whoosh!"

A blinding golden light nearly dazzled everyone.

Liu Lingqing covered her mouth: "This is... a golden treasure chest?!"

This was also the first time Huang Tang had ever seen a treasure chest of silver quality or higher.

He opened the developer mode and looked at the box.

A prompt appears:

[Golden Treasure Chest: A high-quality treasure chest that may contain rare items. It might bring you unexpected surprises.]

Huang Tang took a deep breath and turned to look at Ji Bai.

"Your talent is definitely something."

Ji Bai breathed a sigh of relief and slumped to the ground: "I...I don't have to die for now, right?"

Huang Tang put the golden treasure chest into his system space, feeling great.

"Let's go, let's get more rooms."

With Ji Bai leading the way, the subsequent exploration went much more smoothly.

He found something in almost every room he opened.

The quantities of steel, wood, glass... these materials have increased from single digits to tens or even dozens.

Some rooms can yield special items.

Such as ropes, cloth, tools, etc.

Ji Bo's "lucky" talent is like having a GPS; he can always find a room with hidden treasures.

Huang Tang became increasingly happy as he collected more and more resources, and the amount of supplies in his system space increased rapidly.

Liu Lingqing followed behind and couldn't help but sigh, "This kid's luck is truly outrageous."

Then another door was pushed open.

This is a lavishly decorated bedroom, with pink curtains and carved bedposts, exuding a girlish charm.

There was a person lying on the bed.

A girl, dressed in a gorgeous nightgown, clasped her hands in front of her chest, her face serene, her breathing barely perceptible.

A spindle lay scattered beside her.

"Could this be...?"
