Chapter 221 The girl secretly rolls inward
"Girl, do you want to find a place to rest?" Lin Ji rubbed his arms, "Girl, do you feel it's a bit cold here?"
Daiyu knew, of course, that this place was very close to the wooden sign, and this area was colder than other places because of the wooden sign.
Only someone like Mr. Qian, who has been engaged in this kind of activity for many years, can withstand such coldness.
It’s a pity that Qin Ye has passed away, otherwise we could still ask why he bought such a house in the first place.
Daiyu shook her head and instructed Lin Ji, "Go find Huang Yongjin and ask him to check the address of this descendant of Qian and what kind of people they are. Remember, don't investigate his home without permission. After that, you can go back to Lixiangyuan directly."
Seeing Daiyu's serious expression, Lin Ji did not act arrogantly. He agreed immediately and then climbed over the wall and left.
Daiyu did not waste time here, but took out a cushion, sat by the courtyard wall, and began to meditate and practice.
Although he had to pay attention to the movements around him from time to time, the effect of his practice was still much better than when he was in the Jia Mansion.
In less than two hours, Mr. Qian came out. He shook off the dirt on his body, wiped the dirt off his face, and said, "Fortunately, I have fulfilled my mission!"
Daiyu asked 111 to scan again and confirmed that the location and depth of the tunnel completely met her requirements and was less than two meters away from the wooden sign.
She nodded and said, "Then I'll take you back first!"
After saying that, she found some bamboo branches and leaves, and roughly covered the entrance of the cave, then carried Qian Lao back the same way.
"One penny is still too little. Please accept this ten taels of silver!"
Old Qian took a look at the silver ingot and shook his head firmly: "No, even if you give me this silver, I can't keep it, so it's better not to give it. If the girl really pities me, please send me some steamed buns from time to time, I will be very grateful. Of course, I won't refuse roast duck either."
Daiyu stared at his eyes for a long time, but she still obeyed him and took out a dime from her purse: "This dime is the smallest thing I have. Go buy some steamed buns after daybreak. As for the matter you mentioned, I need to make sure that they are really not tainted by karma before I can help them."
A relieved smile broke out on Mr. Qian's dry face, and his yellowed teeth didn't seem so disgusting anymore in Daiyu's eyes.
Daiyu sighed: "Why are you doing this? If you really want to repent, why don't you go to the Buddhist temple to atone for your sins?"
Qian smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Forget it, I know best what's going on with me, why should I bother others?"
Daiyu couldn't help feeling a little reluctant, but she didn't plan to do anything until she was sure.
After saying goodbye to Mr. Qian, she quickly returned to the tunnel entrance. The treasure was right in front of her, and she didn't want to wait even a moment longer.
She turned on the button flashlight, and after her eyes adjusted to the light, she began to crawl deeper into the tunnel.
Although the upside-down posture made Daiyu feel a little uncomfortable, she easily resolved the discomfort with her profound inner strength.
I don't know how Mr. Qian dug the hole. Except for pouring some soil out at the beginning, the rest of the soil was not transported out.
But Daiyu didn't have the skills of Qian Lao. She moved her mind and the boxing gloves appeared. She put her strength into her palms, and her palms turned into blades, cutting deeply into the soil in front of her.
Now she no longer needs the guidance of the scanning map. The endless energy coming from the wooden sign is like a beacon in the dark night, guiding her in the direction of excavation.
What surprised Daiyu even more was that the skills in her body actually started to work automatically while she was awake.
You know, every time you practiced in the Jia Mansion in the past, you needed to let your body enter a complete dormant state.
With the help of this wooden sign, her training efficiency will definitely be greatly improved in the future!
Thinking of this, Daiyu dug even faster, and kneaded the excavated soil into solid mud balls, which she stored in the warehouse one by one.
Less than two meters away, she soon touched something cold, metallic.
She was delighted and took out a hard plaque from the soil. Under the flashlight, the green soul plaque reflected a silver satin-like luster.
But if you hold it in your hand for a long time, it will inevitably feel a little cold.
Daiyu was worried that there was a thousand-year-old soul hidden inside, so she didn't dare let the brand come into direct contact with her skin and put it directly into the warehouse.
The moment the sign was put into the warehouse, she felt the entire cave warm up.
I think this area of the Qin Mansion will no longer be so gloomy!
Daiyu expanded the tunnel and then changed its direction so that she wouldn't have to go back out of the tunnel.
After she went out, in order to prevent others from discovering this strange tunnel, she used her internal energy to slap the ground, completely destroying the tunnel.
Daiyu didn't care about the few meters long depression left on the ground. Even if the people in Qin's house found the underground palace, she didn't care because she had already emptied everything inside.
When she returned to Lixiangyuan, Lingji was pacing back and forth in the servants' yard.
"I'm back!" Daiyu jumped down to the yard, completely forgetting that she was covered in mud.
Lin Ji first looked her up and down, and then he breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that his girl had returned safely.
But when he noticed the mud on Daiyu's body, his brows couldn't help but frown.
"Girl, would you like me to ask the kitchenette to send some hot water over?"
Daiyu raised her hand and saw that her elbow was covered with mud.
She smiled with sudden enlightenment: "No need, I'll change my clothes and ask the maid to wash them for me later!"
She was so happy that she didn't notice anything unusual about her body.
"Then go and get some rest, girl. It will be dawn in just over an hour!"
"Well, you should go and have a rest too! By the way, you don't need to pay attention to the Qin Mansion or the Qin Family's house anymore!"
After saying that, Daiyu tiptoed directly onto the roof, and then leaped to the inner courtyard next door.
The patrolling guards recognized Daiyu's figure and began to discuss in a low voice: "The girl's skills must have improved her martial arts!"
"No!"
In the next few days, Daiyu did not sleep in Lixiangyuan at night.
On the one hand, it was because she had to go to the Six Departments at night to collect books and earn points; there was another very important reason. Daiyu discovered that as long as she took out the soul tablet, the temperature within a radius of 20 to 30 meters would become very cold.
She hadn't paid much attention to it when she was underground before, but now that she tried it in the open area of the Lin Mansion, the effect was particularly obvious, comparable to central air conditioning.
Helplessly, Daiyu could only choose to practice in an empty martial arts field late at night to prevent the cold air from affecting other people in the mansion.
Especially those ordinary servants who cannot practice martial arts.
