Idle game leads to another world

Yang Yiyi's set of operations was smooth and smooth, leaving Qin Yan dumbfounded.

Shouldn't she be a character who kills randomly? She is still in the stage of killing randomly, and it is not time to let her out to kill randomly.

But Qin Yan thought about it and felt that something was wrong. This was beyond the scope of great wisdom and foolishness. Someone had given her the answer.

Qin Yan immediately remembered the first time she met Yang Yiyi in the broken Taoist temple. At that time, a man's voice came out of her.

At that time, Qin Yan didn't think much about it. She thought it was a schizophrenia of two souls in one body, but combined with Yang Yiyi's amazing progress in martial arts during this period, it is very likely that there is a master who never shows up nearby.

No matter what Qin Yan thinks, the information left by the deceased has been solved, so let's go to the silk factory outside the city to have a look.

When the two went out, they happened to meet the hurried accountant. After asking, they learned that the account book was finally checked and some errors were found, so the accountant planned to find Wen Peng, the master of the Wen family, to report.

Since Wen Peng and Tang Lianyu went to the silk factory outside the city, it was just on the way, so Yang Yiyi and Qin Yan took the Wen family's carriage to go out of the city together.

It is not easy to turn silk cocoons into raw silk. It requires many processes, and only after going through layers can the thick silk cocoons be peeled off, which is the origin of the idiom "pulling silk and peeling cocoons".

And these processes require a lot of water and fuel, so silk factories are generally built outside the city, near water sources or woods.

The Wen family's silk factory is no exception. After leaving the city, walk along the river, and soon you will see the silk factory with smoke next to the hillside.

The silk cocoons collected from nearby silkworm farmers will be turned into bundles of raw silk here, and then sent to the weavers to become silk.

When they arrived at the door of the silk factory, the two jumped off the car and did not follow in.

The five words obtained by solving the clues are city, outside, silk, factory, and product.

Except that they couldn't quite understand the meaning of the last word "pin", the direction was already very obvious. Yang Yiyi and Qin Yan decided to explore around the silk factory first, and then go to the silk factory to look for things related to "pin".

The reason for this is that there are people coming and going in the silk factory. If the deceased wants to hide something, it is not an easy thing. In contrast, there are many places outside the silk factory.

The silk factory is next to the river, and there is a small forest next to it. On the other side is the official road and the plain. So the two decided to go to the direction of the small forest first to see if there is anything related to "pin".

Qin Yan relied on her good Qinggong and jumped onto the treetops after a few steps to take a look. Don't say it, they really found it.

At the other end of the small forest, there is a hillside with a large rock washed out by rain, and below the hillside is a river channel eroded by a tributary of the river.

On the hillside full of stones, looking down from the treetops, you can see that several pieces of gravel form a shape similar to "pin".

The two walked quickly through the small forest, slid down the hillside, and observed near the stone.

It was found immediately. One of the big stones was against the hillside, as if it was the entrance of a cave.

This stone was not small. Qin Yan looked up and down and felt that it would be difficult to push it without five or six people using tools to pry it open.

"Let me do it."

Yang Yiyi was not sleepy when she said she was strong. She motioned Qin Yan to stand aside. Yang Yiyi held the bulge on the edge of the stone and exerted force suddenly.

This big stone that five or six people could not push was moved to the side by Yang Yiyi alone, and it didn't even look like it was difficult.

Originally, the tendon and bone attributes were high, and there was also the strong internal force of the Extreme Vajra Gong, so this was a standard operation.

Behind the big stone was a palm-deep hole. The entrance of the hole was sealed with an iron door. The edges of the door frame were built with glutinous rice paste, yellow mud and gravel. The amount of work was not large, but it was very strong.

Let's put it this way, the Great Wall was built with yellow mud and glutinous rice paste.

The door was locked, with a big padlock on it. Yang Yiyi looked at it and wondered if it was locked or not.

"Look, I'll kick it open."

"Wait, don't work so roughly."

Apart from anything else, Qin Yan would not let Yang Yiyi mess around in her professional field. She observed the keyhole:

"This is a very advanced lock, made by a skilled craftsman, and the keys are specially customized."

"Key? This kind?"

Yang Yiyi took out a piece of wax-like thing from her pocket, in the shape of a key.

"Is this a wax model? Where did you find it?"

"It's on the bookshelf of the deceased, behind the last book of the word Pin. I didn't let the servant see it and hid it secretly."

Wax models are used for casting, and this is a high-precision casting method, which is much more sophisticated than clay models. Many exquisite metal utensils are cast in this way.

Two dead people, one with a wax model and the other with a clay model, and both are keys?

Seeing that Qin Yan was lost in thought and didn't speak, Yang Yiyi couldn't help asking.

"You haven't told me yet, is this it?"

"The size of the keyhole is wrong, it shouldn't be this, you put it away first. This door can't stop me."

Unable to figure out the reason, Qin Yan pulled out a piece of wire stuck in her hair, inserted it into the keyhole and twisted it left and right a few times, and the lock was opened with a click.

Lock picking is a necessary skill for thieves. Although this lock is advanced, it is not advanced enough.

The two pushed the door open. Behind the door was a small space, about four or five square meters, just an ordinary cave, with almost no signs of artificial repair.

But in the center of this cave, there were two piles of silk, and three wooden boards were placed underneath to separate the silk from the rocks on the ground.

Yang Yiyi thought she would find some decisive evidence, but she was disappointed when she saw it was silk.

But Qin Yan widened her eyes and touched the silk.

"This is a tribute..."

"Ah?"

"Don't you understand? This is the tribute silk used by the royal family!"

"That is... the quality is very good?"

Yang Yiyi really doesn't understand expensive things like silk. She has never worn silk clothes since she was a child.

"This is not a question of quality. Privately buying and selling tribute will result in death!"

"Uh..."

Then the question is, who put the tribute silk here?

Although Silk City is named after silk, it only produces high-quality raw silk. To process it into silk, it requires highly skilled weavers. Silk City is not as good as other silk-producing cities in this regard, and it has never been listed as a tribute.

In other words, this batch of tribute silk was transported from other cities, and it was transported secretly at the risk of being beheaded.

Ordinary people don't have this ability. Let alone the question of whether they dare or not, ordinary people don't have the way to get in touch with tribute.

The thieves of the Sixteen Villages did rob tributes, and no merchant dared to accept such stolen goods. If you want to die, you don't need such a fresh and refined way.

Qin Yan fumbled in the silk and took out an envelope. There was only a piece of paper in the envelope, which said, "Let's part ways in peace. I will help you do things, and you give me money. If you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust."

The handwriting is very similar to the account book written by the deceased. This should be a warning left by him. Unfortunately, the murderer behind him did not give him a chance.

But the warning was not signed, and it is unknown who the deceased was helping.

"Anyway, call the master of the Wen family first. The tribute is not a trivial matter. It was found near his silk factory. If it is not handled properly, there will be a disaster."

It is estimated that Wen Peng collapsed after hearing this news. Why did he have to confiscate his family and destroy his ancestors?
