Siheyuan: After traveling through time, who can still be an honest person?

In the wild forest.

"Ah!"

"Ah!"

The four were awakened by cold water. When they opened their eyes, it was still daylight. They were lying on the ground tied up. Their cotton coats and sweaters had been taken off, and they were only wearing single clothes. Their upper and lower teeth were chattering from the cold.

"The four of you are awake." Cao Yue looked down at the four brothers.

The big man had long lost the ferocity he had when he was chasing people. After realizing his situation, he smiled bitterly and said, "Today, the four of us brothers are in trouble. If you want to punish us, just mark the way out. We brothers will accept it."

Cao Yue sneered: "You want to act tough, but you'll have plenty of time later. I hope you won't let me down."

"Tell me, why are you blocking me?"

A gust of cool wind blew by, and the big man suddenly shuddered, his lips trembling:

"We see that you are generous, so you must be a big fat sheep. The brothers are here to make a living. I hope you understand, big brother."

"I don't understand shit!" Cao Yue cursed.

"You...what on earth will you do to let us go?"

The four men were already injured, and then they were doused with cold water. Ice formed on their heads, and they began to feel dizzy from the cold.

Cao Yue needs to hurry up and interrogate him.

He scanned the faces of the four people one by one, his tone cold:

"I'm asking you a question now. If anyone lies to me, don't blame me for being cruel."

The first person to be interrogated was naturally the big man.

"Tell me, what's your name, where is your lair, and how many brothers are there outside?"

"Are you in plain clothes?" The big man looked terrified.

"I'm asking you, not you. I'll give you another chance."

The big man gritted his teeth and said nothing.

Cao Yue sneered, walked forward and stepped on the big man's calf without saying a word.

"Crack!"

With a terrifying crisp sound, the big man's calf was broken directly.

Before the big man could utter a scream, he was kicked in the head again and fainted instantly.

Cao Yue had no intention of getting an answer from the big man, he just wanted to use him as a warning to others.

"Three...third brother."

The ticket scalpers were trembling with fear.

"If you dare to kick Third Brother's leg and break it, our brothers outside will never let you go."

The other two were shocked and angry.

Cao Yue laughed and said, "It seems that you are all tough guys. I have no choice but to break your legs as well..."

"No, no, I said, please let me go."

The ticket scalpers were the first to give up and began to beg for mercy.

"Sixth Brother, I already knew you were a spineless guy. If you dare to betray us, we will kill you when we get out."

Cao Yue sneered: "You two are really stubborn. I will interrogate you separately later. If anyone tells a lie, I will see if he is stubborn."

After saying this, Cao Yue took the three men aside, keeping them far away, to prevent them from colluding with each other.

"Tell me, let's talk about the same question as before. Who are you? Where is your base? How many accomplices are there outside?"

Cao Yue first came to the ticket scalper and threatened him viciously: "I will ask the other two people the same question later. If your confessions don't match, I won't dare to kill you, but I will break all your limbs and cut off your tongue."

"Think it over before answering my questions, or you'll regret it."

The ticket scalper burst into tears, and then Cao Yue smelled a pungent smell of urine.

Cao Yue frowned. There was one downside to having a very good sense of smell. When he smelled something nice, it smelled extremely nice. When he smelled something smelly, it smelled extremely bad. It was like having a migraine.

However, the ticket scalpers soon revealed all the details of the gang.

It turned out that the six brothers all took an old thief as their master. They worked as pickpockets during the day and did no-cost business in the Pigeon Market at night.

Whenever he met a big customer in the pigeon market, he would stop him on the road and rob him.

Transactions in the Pigeon City are shady to begin with, and those who have been robbed dare not report to the police and can only suffer in silence, so the country has been peaceful all along.

As for their master, he died of illness today.

Because there was no will left, only tens of thousands of dollars in cash were found, but the most important gold bars were missing.

The eldest and the second in command both thought that the other knew where the gold bars were hidden. They first quarreled, then fought, and finally both of them were seriously injured and were killed by the other four.

So when they said just now that there were brothers outside, they were just trying to scare people.

Cao Yue naturally would not easily believe the ticket scalper's words, and walked up to the other two people one after another.

The fourth and fifth children are a little tougher than the sixth child.

But it is limited.

Cao Yue stepped on their ankles and crushed them hard twice, and they all confessed.

"Crack!"

"Crack!"

Two crisp sounds were suddenly heard in the silent wilderness.

One minute later.

Cao Yue came to the ticket scalper.

"Brother, we are willing to give you everything if you let me go." The ticket seller felt dizzy and had a severe headache.

Cao Yue smiled and said, "Okay, I'll send you off right away."

"Thank you..."

The ticket scalper had just said two words when suddenly a dark shadow flashed before his eyes. He heard a crisp "crack" in his neck and lost consciousness.

Cao Yue looked at the ticket scalper's body coldly, with no mercy in his eyes.

From the moment the four men robbed Cao Yue at gunpoint, their fate was sealed.

Cao Yue will never leave any trouble behind.

What’s more, ticket scalpers have a pair of sensitive dog noses, so we must nip them in the bud.

Cao Yue went to send the unconscious man away, and then carried the four bodies together.

It is winter now and the soil on the ground is hard, so it is difficult to dig a hole and bury the body.

but.

Cao Yue has space.

After choosing a remote location, he thought about it and a huge pit more than ten meters deep suddenly appeared under his feet.

at the same time.

The soil from the deep pit has been piled up in the space.

Throw all the bodies into the deep pit, and then put the soil in the space back into the pit.

Everything is done without anyone noticing.

No one can tell.

……

It was past five in the morning.

Cao Yue returned to the city, but he did not go home. Instead, he came to the outside of a courtyard with only one entrance.

This is the lair of ticket scalpers.

Cao Yue snatched four keys from the four ticket scalpers, but did not use the keys to open the door. Instead, he climbed over the wall to get in.

According to the confessions of the ticket scalper and the other two people, this courtyard was the secret base of their master and his fellow apprentices. Apart from them, even their family members didn't know about it.

Although Cao Yue knew that they would not dare to lie, he still carefully checked and found that there was no one there.

But the yard was a mess, with pits one after another.

These were dug by ticket scalpers in their quest to find the gold bars hidden by the master.

Entering the main house, there are also signs of excavation inside.

After taking a walk, Cao Yue came to the study on the west side.

Cao Yue dragged a row of bookshelves hard, revealing a secret room.

When I looked inside, I saw that the area was about 50 to 60 square meters. There were two rows of bookshelves against the wall, on which were placed some antiques.

Cao Yue entered the secret room and found that it had been excavated. In order to find the secret compartments in the walls, holes had been smashed in the three walls.

The ticket scalper's master hid his things very secretly. They had dug deep in the ground for the past few months but still couldn't find it.

The noise was so loud that it even attracted questions from neighbors.

Fortunately, they knew someone at the street office, so they avoided any trouble.

However, the ticket scalpers were certain that the master's treasure was definitely hidden in this courtyard.

Cao Yue has a system and a personal space, so it is easy for him to find these things.
