The number one rebel of the Great Wu

Meanwhile.

Chen Changgeng had already arrived at the palace gate.

Most of the palace guards have been mobilized to "observe the battle".

There are hardly any guards at the gate right now.

As soon as Chen Changgeng showed his pass to enter the palace, the guard let him in without hesitation.

The palace of the Great Wu Kingdom was only so big. After entering the palace walls and taking only a few steps, Chen Changgeng sensed two sword intents clashing fiercely in the distance.

"They've already started fighting?"

Chen Changgeng arrived at the palace almost immediately after receiving the news.

I didn't expect them to act so much faster than I imagined.

"It seems Qin Lan was right; there are significantly fewer guards patrolling the road now."

Chen Changgeng glanced in the direction of the large warehouse and quickened his pace.

He wasn't sure what the situation was like inside the palace, so he decided to go to the treasury for safety.

Even if Xiao Jingtian catches him, he can still find an excuse that Qin Lan threatened him.

"Boom, boom!"

As intermittent booming sounds echoed from the sky, Chen Changgeng turned his head from time to time.

He couldn't help but admire him; he was truly a master. Even from this distance, he felt a chill run down his spine.

Before long, Chen Changgeng arrived outside the warehouse.

As soon as Chen Changgeng approached, two guards from the main storehouse came to greet him.

Chen Changgeng had just visited a few days ago, so the guards recognized him immediately.

"Halt! This is the forbidden area of ​​the Great Treasury."

"No one is allowed to approach without a token!"

"Otherwise, execute them on the spot!"

If they hadn't known Chen Changgeng, these guards probably would have already made their move.

Chen Changgeng quickly activated the telepathic communication function.

"Consort Qin, I've arrived at the entrance of the main warehouse. Can you tell me the secret code now?"

He contacted Qin Lan on the way, but the woman absolutely refused to give a straight answer.

You absolutely have to go to the entrance of the warehouse yourself.

"Strong wind, pancakes, old horse, wheat, liquor."

The next second, five words that he absolutely did not want to do echoed in Chen Changgeng's mind.

Chen Changgeng was stunned and almost couldn't process what Qin Lan was saying. He quickly repeated it word by word after her.

The two guards who came to greet him exchanged a strange look, clearly not understanding what Chen Changgeng was talking about.

"What are you babbling about? Let's get going."

"If it weren't for the fact that the Emperor brought you here, we would have already taken action!"

"Wait, there's no response!"

"Consort Qin, are you sure you're not mistaken?"

Chen Changgeng looked embarrassed and quickly asked a question.

"Pfft!"

The next second, a bloody blade suddenly appeared from the chest of the guard who was about to come over and pull Chen Changgeng away.

The guard looked down in disbelief, then turned back.

A guard with a numb face and vacant eyes emerged from the inner courtyard of the main storehouse and swung his knife.

"What are you doing?"

The other guard's face immediately paled, and he was about to reach for his knife.

The crazed guard suddenly drew his sword and slit his throat!

"Holy crap, how did they kill someone?"

Chen Changgeng was startled, and his mind went blank.

What if the patrolling guards come and cause an explosion?

Just as Chen Changgeng was dumbfounded, the crazed guard glanced at him with empty eyes.

Seemingly remembering that he was the one who gave the password, he turned around blankly and walked towards the inner courtyard.

Chen Changgeng followed him in with some concern, only to find that the remaining three guards in the inner courtyard had already fallen to the ground.

So this guy took care of all three people in the inner courtyard in less than a minute before coming to find me?

The crazed guards seemed not to see the corpses lying on the ground and stepped directly over them.

Upon arriving at the entrance of the warehouse, he made a few taps on the gate.

With a loud rumble, the main gate trembled and slowly opened.

"Thanks……"

Chen Changgeng walked over, before he could finish speaking.

Then they saw the man pick it up again and slit his own neck.

puff!

Blood splattered all over Chen Changgeng's face.

What the hell!

He committed suicide?

What will I do if you commit suicide?

I'm in a situation I can't clear my name even if I jump into the Yellow River!

This is insane! Absolutely insane!

Chen Changgeng took off running, plunging headfirst into the warehouse, and hurriedly asked...

"Consort Qin, what are you looking for? Tell me quickly, I'm afraid I can't stay here any longer!"

In that instant, Qin Lan had already been beaten into the same category as the Shoe Cult member by Chen Changgeng.

After I finish this job, I'll definitely stay far, far away.

"I'm looking for a jade Guanyin statue, about the size of a palm."

"It's crystal clear, and when you hold it up to the light, you can even see words inside."

"Are there words inside the jade?"

Chen Changgeng felt strange. Shouldn't a jade Guanyin statue be carved from a single piece? How could there be words inside?

However, Qin Lan did not answer Chen Changgeng's question.

Chen Changgeng had no choice but to bite the bullet and search room by room in the warehouse.

Although the warehouse had four rooms, it did not occupy a large area. Chen Changgeng quickly spotted a jade Guanyin statue on a shelf that matched the description and immediately took it out to examine it.

The Guanyin statue was a pale green color all over, and it was indeed crystal clear. When you held it in your hand, you could vaguely see starlight inside, shimmering slightly.

"Holy crap! The thing inside can move!"

Chen Changgeng shook it in his hand, and the starlight inside seemed to be soaked in some kind of extremely viscous liquid, and immediately began to flow slowly.

"Damn it, she's just as weird as that woman."

Chen Changgeng quickly put the Guanyin statue away, and was about to go to the medicine room to find some more good stuff.

A patrol of guards was approaching from a distance.

Chen Changgeng was shocked. Oh no, it's too late!

Damn it, I haven't gotten anything yet!

Upon seeing this, the guard would surely rush in to investigate.

If I hesitate for even a second, I'll be stuck inside.

"never mind!"

Chen Changgeng gritted his teeth, withdrew his hand from the door of the pill room, and leaped out.

The patrolling guards had just turned the corner when they saw two corpses at the entrance of the warehouse. The men were immediately terrified and turned pale.

"There's an assassin!"

The group immediately drew their longswords and rushed over.

Rushing over in a panic, I saw four more corpses in the inner courtyard, and the door to the main storeroom was slowly closing.

"The big warehouse has been robbed!"

The head of the guards felt as if the sky had fallen when he saw this; his vision went black and he collapsed.

With the warehouse robbed, they will likely all meet their demise!

Chen Changgeng pushed his clumsy lightness skill to its limit, and finally ran more than a hundred meters away before the group of guards arrived.

"Did you get the item?"

This time, Qin Lan asked the question leisurely.

"I got it, but the guards arrived too quickly, and I didn't get anything."

Chen Changgeng was somewhat depressed.

Qin Lan smiled gently.

"This is a good thing. If you had taken something else, this matter would not have ended well."

Chen Changgeng frowned.

"You think taking this jade Guanyin statue will settle things peacefully?"

Qin Lan smiled confidently.

"That's right, because this is what belongs to me!"

"It's that damned emperor who's been holding them captive and won't let them return."

"Now that I'm taking back what's mine, what's the problem?"

"Damn it, why didn't you say so sooner!"

Chen Changgeng felt his mind explode.

This is just setting him up!
