Rebirth of the Firstborn Daughter: Life is like a Dream

Li Yuyan didn't know that Fu Youqi had gradually upgraded his opponent to a higher level in his mind at this time, and wanted to compete with him even more.

"Admiral Fu?" Li Yuyan turned back to Fu Youqi and sincerely asked him to go with him.

"Master Xiao Li is very secretive, and I admire him." Fu Youqi said.

Li Yuyan smiled faintly and walked up the stone stairs first.

The stone stairs twist and turn until they reach the bottom, just like the mountain was dug out from the inside, gradually becoming a mysterious cave dug from above. However, such a cave is inevitably too big...

Not only Fu Youqi was surprised, but Li Yuyan was also surprised. How much time did it take to carve out a cave like that?

After walking up a stone staircase about ten feet long, I finally saw a stone house.

"This is..." Fu Youqi was suddenly startled. What he saw around him were actually two large furnaces. Although there was no blazing flame, he could imagine what the two large furnaces were used for at that time.

Even the large furnaces in the capital city that were carefully used to manufacture weapons were not as big as these two furnaces.

Li Yuyan, on the contrary, looked calm. He exchanged glances with Su Leiye, who nodded slightly and carefully checked the two furnaces.

"Sir, look." Su Leiye scraped something on the edge of the stove with his sword and gave it to Li Yuyan for careful inspection.

"It's silver..." Li Yuyan frowned. It seemed that the use of these two furnaces was the same as he guessed, that is, they were used to burn silver. However, it seemed that the furnaces had not been turned on for more than ten years.

He looked around and saw several tiny holes on the top of the furnace, which he thought were used for ventilation when burning silver.

No wonder the court could not find the whereabouts of that batch of official silver for many years. It turned out that it was burned in the furnace... But, could it be that one hundred million taels of silver had been burned and remade into new silver?

"Admiral, over there." Fu Youqi's subordinates noticed another hidden secret room and hurriedly called Fu Youqi over to take a look.

Fu Youqi looked over and turned to Li Yuyan and said, "Someone is making private silver here."

The hidden secret room is filled with tools for making silver.

"It is to turn that batch of official silver into private silver." Li Yuyan said softly.

Just at this moment, there was a slight noise suddenly coming from outside. Li Yuyan's eyes sharpened and he immediately turned sideways, just in time to see a tall figure disappear without a trace at the entrance of the stone stairs.

Li Yuyan chased after him without saying a word. That guy was also a capable man. He actually reached the hidden door in one go. When he was about to close the door to trap the people inside, the soft sword in Li Yuyan's hand flew out and injured the guy's hand. The inconspicuous hidden door stopped halfway.

Fu Youqi followed behind and when he saw the man whose arm was injured by Li Yuyan, his face was slightly surprised, "Uncle Yue?"

Seeing that the other party had recognized him, Uncle Yue was unwilling to give up and let himself be caught. He stretched out his hand to attack Li Yuyan.

Li Yuyan turned over to avoid his punch and slapped Uncle Yue on the shoulder with a powerful palm, completely draining the strength from his arm. Uncle Yue felt a pain in his shoulder, and his other hand was injured by the soft sword. He knew that he was no match for them, so he turned around and tried to escape.

Fu Youqi had already cut off his retreat.

"Uncle Yue, who are you?" Li Yuyan looked at him with cold eyes, knowing that this Uncle Yue must have something to do with the Japanese pirates at sea at that time.

"If you want to cut me up or kill me, please do as you please. I won't say a word." Before Uncle Yue could start, Zhuoli shouted.

Li Yuyan sneered and said, "He is really a person with character. However, character is something that can sometimes disappoint people. Uncle Yue, you don't have to say more."

He is different from Fu Youqi. He is not here to handle the case. He is just here to find the silver and then lure out the person behind the scenes. As for the rest, it is Fu Youqi's business.

Fu Youqi looked directly at Li Yuyan, not knowing what he would do next.

"Admiral Fu, I'll leave this guy to you." Li Yuyan said to Fu Youqi with a smile. Since he liked people who were impetuous and ambitious, he naturally didn't care who found out about this case.

"Take Uncle Yue back." Fu Youqi looked at Li Yuyan deeply and ordered his subordinates.

Li Yuyan smiled lightly and went down the mountain with Su Leiye. But when they reached the mountainside, they noticed a bright firework suddenly exploded in the sky. This was the signal received.

Su Leiye looked at Li Yuyan unwillingly, "Sir, are you just going to leave it alone?"

"What does it matter? I am the appointed minister of Baiyue City. I am only responsible for picking out the imperial merchants that His Majesty wants." Li Yuyan said softly, but deep down he was thinking, it is impossible that all the 100 million taels of silver have been melted, so where is the remaining part?

"Let's go to that isolated island and take a look!" said Li Yuyan.

Su Leiye followed Li Yuyan to the beach and found a fishing boat. "Sir, why don't you question that old man? Maybe he was the pirate at sea at that time."

"Whether he is a pirate or not, what does it have to do with me?" Li Yuyan stood upright at the end of the boat and said softly, "Fu Youqi will find out by himself. If he can't find the result I want, we will talk about it later."

"That old man must have a relationship with the Gong family or the Fang family." Su Leiye said.

"Spread the news back to Baiyue City tomorrow and say that we found the government silver that was lost in Baiyue City at that time, and also captured several Japanese pirates who participated in the looting at sea at that time. Let our people keep an eye on Gong Zhanxian and transfer a few people to this place." Li Yuyan ordered.

Suleiye responded immediately.

The two of them appeared on a desolate island. The night was hazy tonight and the situation on the island could not be seen clearly. Su Leiye held a torch in his hand. The blazing flames directly illuminated his figure in the towering trees nearby. The salty sea breeze rustled the leaves and grass on the entire island.

Bingyan told him that there were several mysterious caves on this deserted island.

Li Yuyan ignored the lingering shadows on the island with a firm and sharp look in his eyes, his steps were steady and brisk, and his slender and majestic postures and movements were more freehand under the blazing flames.

"This is the only mountain on the island." Li Yuyan stopped and looked at the lush mountains around him that looked like a white painting under the night sky.

Su Leiye said, "This mountain full of life is very low. If we dig a secret passage like we did at Mazu Pagoda, it will probably lead to the bottom of the water."

"Let's go and take a look." Li Yuyan said.

They found a mysterious cave, but it was empty and there was no mechanism inside.
