When Shi Er heard the noise coming from the forest, he immediately went on alert and quietly went to investigate.

When he saw that it was his companion who was looking for him, he took off his guard.

Shi glanced at the blood-stained gauze on his arm and asked in a tight voice: "Where are the young lady and the others? What happened?"

"They were resting in front. A few thieves bumped into them and were killed." Shi Er said with a smile, "You came just in time. You have a lot of loot."

Shiyi frowned, "Let me see your injuries."

"A little flesh wound, it's not a problem." Shi Er turned sideways and talked about the tomb robbers and the loot.

Shiyi's eyes widened after hearing this: "So, there is a big tomb nearby?"

"Judging from the scale of these cultural relics, they are quite large. I wonder if they brought out all the valuable things." After Shi Er finished speaking, he was shocked, "Do you want to go explore more?"

"Send the women back to the camp first." Shiyi did not forget anything important.

"That's right, it's just that a little girl fell asleep, and the young lady wanted to wait until she wakes up before returning."

As soon as Shi Er finished speaking, he saw Su Yunwan coming over.

After the few people greeted each other, Su Yunwan, who heard their conversation, said, "I know where the cemetery is. How about going there now?"

"Master is still waiting for you to return." Shi said.

"Then I'll take you to find the way first." Su Yunwan said, "It's just that the cemetery is full of traps, so you have to be careful."

Shiyi smiled and said: "Don't worry, young lady, we know some important tricks of the mechanism, and we have also seen some cemeteries."

Before the founding of the People's Republic of China, the ancestors of the Qin family once committed tomb robbing in order to sell the treasures in the tombs to supplement military pay. As the Qin family's shadow guards, the skills they learned included tomb robbing, and the assessment was naturally inseparable from actual combat.

Su Yunwan knew that the shadow guard was extremely capable, so he wasn't too surprised.

With her leading the way, the group quickly discovered a cave in the dense forest.

This thief's cave is deep and dark, only big enough for one person, and full of mystery and weirdness.

Su Yunwan found a trace of spiritual power and entered through the entrance of the cave.

I saw that this robbery hole led directly to a secret room. Most of the mechanisms in the tomb had been destroyed, and the price was human lives - there were many dead people under the mechanism.

In addition to the harvest in the sacks, the cemetery also contains many valuable items. Presumably those tomb robbers couldn't take that much, so they picked up the most valuable ones and carried the rest later.

After Su Yunwan knew what was going on in the tomb, he followed Shiyi and others back to the valley.

After Xiaozhu woke up, everyone walked back.

In the camp, Qin Junyi looked left and right, and finally saw a group of people coming back.

When Su Yunwan saw Qin Junyi being supported by Zuo Shaohan, her heart warmed: "I'm back."

Qin Junyi looked at her carefully and saw that she was not injured, so he said gently: "Have you had lunch?"

"After eating, the beggar's chicken we cooked attracted uninvited guests because it was so delicious." Su Yunwan casually mentioned the unexpected incident.

Qin Junyi froze, and immediately looked at Shi Er, who was secretly protecting him. When he saw that his left arm was injured, he frowned fiercely.

Several people moved to the tent.

Qin Junyi sat upright on the floor mat, and Wu Shaohan served a cup of tea to Su Yunwan who was sitting beside him.

Shi Er knelt down and reported the incident in detail, and asked for punishment: "My subordinate neglected his duty and allowed the thief to take advantage of the situation and hit the young lady. Please punish me, Master."

"With one against seven, and they are all desperadoes, why not trigger a signal?" Qin Junyi sat upright, a cold light flashing in his eyes.

Shi Er lowered his head for another half minute: "The camp is far away from the valley, so we can't see the signal."

"Then why didn't you send out a signal on the way there and send in more manpower?"

Shi Er thought to himself: I didn't know the young lady could go so far.

But as a shadow guard, he should have taken all situations into consideration, and he was indeed derelict in his duty.

Therefore, Shi Er did not defend himself any more, and lowered his head even lower: "I know I was wrong, and please forgive me, Master."

"If what you encounter today is not a few tomb robbers, but people sent from the capital, how can you withstand it?!"

Shi Er kowtowed and said, "It is true that my subordinate was negligent, and I am willing to accept the punishment."

"If you really want to talk about it, I was the one who took everyone away from this mountain." Su Yunwan suddenly said, "Zi Yuan, I can guarantee that even if the Dog Emperor sends a killer, I can protect everyone's lives."

Qin Junyi's tone slowed down: "Wan Wan, this is different."

"Okay, Shi Er has harvested a lot of cultural relics from the cemetery, so let's consider the merits to be equal to the faults." After Su Yunwan finished speaking, he took Qin Junyi's hand and said, "Do you want to go take a look?"

Qin Junyi took advantage of the situation and said: "If you don't do this next time, get up."

"Thank you, Master, and thank you, Madam." Shi Er stood up and stepped aside. When Qin Junyi and Su Yunwan walked out of the tent, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Brother Wu was right, the young lady was indeed at the forefront of her master's heart.

The rules of the Shadow Guard have always been strict. If you follow the rules, you will inevitably get a physical and mental punishment.

Now, just because the young lady said a few words, the master took care of her and put it away lightly. It was really a hero's misfortune to be a beauty.

Qin Junyi didn't know that Shi Er still had time to complain. He and Su Yunwan walked to the shadow guard's tent and looked at the trophies placed on the ground, their faces turning from gloomy to sunny.

Shiyi asked for orders to go to the cemetery to explore, and Qin Junyi nodded in agreement.

"Go with a few more people, just six or seven." Su Yunwan had already explored the cemetery and knew how many valuable items there were. "We won't go to the road ahead yet. Just lend them the tools."

"Go down and tell Lord Zhong." Wu Shaohan, who was familiar with Zhong Wei, took the initiative to ask for help.

In fact, even if favors are put aside, when the Qin family's shadow guards do the job of opening the way, they are one against three, without any ambiguity.

Now I have to leave the team for a long time because of something, which makes sense both emotionally and rationally.

Zhong Wei did agree readily and asked them to give the tools to the son of the Chu family.

They have good physical strength and can do much more. With the bonus of hoes and shovels, they are more efficient.

Su Yunwan prepared a lot of sacks and medicines for the tomb visiting team. Among them was a detoxifying pill that she made urgently to combat harmful gases in the tomb, and asked them to swallow it before entering the tomb.

After the tomb-exploring team set off, Su Yunwan asked Yu Zhenzhen, who had been dealing with medicine for many years, to help convert the collected medicines into money, and then assembled a medicine-collecting team.

Under the big tree, five adults and one child were sitting on the floor mat.

Yu Zhenzhen took out the paper and reported the types, quantities and converted prices of the medicinal materials collected in the morning.

After everyone confirmed that there was no objection, Su Yunwan took out the money and distributed it to everyone.

In the end, everyone received about 20 taels of silver.

This was a huge sum of money to the people who had their homes confiscated and exiled.

Ding Qiutong cried with joy when she got the free money. She finally had money to live with again!

When she arrived at the next city, she went to buy a donkey cart and add some food and clothing. With the money and some flowers, she should be able to last until she was exiled.

Money is a person's courage. This is the first time since the divorce that she dared to think about the next road to exile.

On the other side, Shi Er took advantage of Su Yunwan's absence and whispered to Qin Junyi what he had discovered along the way: "The young lady seemed to know where the expensive medicinal materials were, and the route she led never failed. What's even more strange is that she did not leave the valley. creek, but knows the secret entrance to the cemetery.”

When Wu Shaohan on the side heard this, he immediately thought, "Zhao Rong's death..."
