Rivers and lakes start from Shushan

Chapter 163 It's all mine
The technique of using one mind and two tasks can be done by any warrior who has trained his mind and mind.

It's just that people's energy is limited, and after being distracted, they will not be so focused on what they were originally doing.

Ouyang Qing slowed down her speech a little, and another person might not be able to notice it.

Only a master like Yang Ke, who is so subtle, can detect the subtle difference.

Gao Jiong stood up suddenly, looked around, raised his glass generously and said, "Masters, please have a drink!"

After drinking a cup, he and Yang Yong retreated from the main seat. The hall was full of guests, and they also got up one after another at this time, and about half of them left in a short time.

The guests at the table also got up and prepared to leave.

"Your Highness, please stay."

When Yang Ke got up, Ouyang Qing leaned forward slightly and stretched out her arms to hold her. At this time, the butler of the Gao Mansion approached and spoke softly beside Yang Ke.

"There is something in the house, the master invites His Royal Highness to go to the business."

Listening to the butler's words, Yang Ke moved slightly, nodded, and walked towards the back hall with Ouyang Qing.

Entering the back hall, I saw Gao Jiong walking back and forth with an angry expression on his face, while Yang Yong was sitting on a chair beside him, showing no emotion.

"Ke'er is here, sit down first."

Gao Jiong greeted them, and then several people were gradually led by the housekeeper of Gao's mansion.

Yang Zheng, Jin Jiuling, Lu Xiaofeng...

Seeing that everyone has arrived, Gao Jiong said at this moment: "During the banquet just now, something happened in the mansion, you tell me."

Gao Jiong pointed to a person who was kneeling in the hall.

The man lay prone on the ground and said in a trembling voice: "I packed up the guests' gifts and entered the warehouse, but just when I locked the door of the warehouse, I fainted.

I don’t know how long it took me to wake up, and then I found that the door of the warehouse was open and everything inside was gone... I looked carefully at the traces on the ground, there were no footprints, and the guards guarding outside didn’t see anyone. Going in and out is like...like encountering a ghost. "

After he finished speaking, Gao Jiong shouted angrily: "Idiot!"

Pointing to a person standing beside that person, he said, "Come on."

"Yes, my lord; the treasury in the mansion is guarded day and night, divided into four squads. Although we can't be called experts, if we are vigilant, it is not difficult to find the traces of ordinary thieves.

But today, seeing Steward Wang bring some things into the warehouse, after about an hour, Steward Wang came out, but said that there was nothing in the warehouse.

Immediately after I sent the letter to the senior manager of the Shufu, I immediately called the nearby guards, and together they took people around the Wei Secret Vault, and the senior manager led people into the secret vault to check, and there was indeed nothing in it.

It's just that we didn't see the second person coming in or out today, and we didn't hear any movement. "

After he finished speaking, Gao Jiong nodded and said, "This is my family's family for generations, and outsiders can't buy it."

But he pointed out that the second leader of the guards in the mansion who spoke was trustworthy.

It was actually a big thief who came to the door!

Yang Ke sat and listened, but did not express any opinions at this time.

Jin Jiuling stepped forward and asked: "Qi Gong, I wonder what is missing in the mansion?"

It is appropriate for Jin Jiuling to call Gao Jiong the Duke of Qi.

Hearing his question, Gao Jiong hesitated for a moment, and then said: "It's nothing more than gold, jade, calligraphy, painting, and herbal medicine. The value is hard to say. The accumulation of generations is worth tens of millions."

"Silver taels?"

"Gold!"

hiss!
It was like hearing someone exclaiming, not Yang Yong and Yang Ke and his son, nor Yang Zheng and Hua Manlou.

Just a branch of the Qinglong Society can allocate 180 million silver taels at will. Yang Zheng would not think that it would be so surprising that the Gao family, who has been a general and heirloom of national honors for generations, has tens of millions of gold.

Huamanlou would not be surprised, the wealth of the Hua family is even higher than that of the Gao family, and the members of the Gao family would not be surprised, as they are in this family, they naturally know how much wealth the family has.

Yang Yong, Yang Ke and his father and son, Yang Yong used to be the prince, in charge of state affairs, and he had seen thousands of times and thousands of times more wealth than this.

As for Yang Ke, it can even be said that he once owned wealth thousands of times more than this.

Ouyang Qing covered her red lips and leaned against Yang Ke's side. Yang Ke pinched her hand and intertwined their fingers.

"The thieves in the rivers and lakes may do it, but they probably dare not offend Duke Qi."

Jin Jiuling pondered for a moment, stated his opinion, and then said: "Since the emperor's order to suppress the rebellious thieves, the gods are near the capital, and no big thieves have ever sneaked in. I think that the treasures in the Duke's mansion are guarded by guards. This kind of theft is probably not done by one person."

Gao Jiong stroked his beard, looked at Jin Jiuling, and asked, "President Jin knows who did it."

Jin Jiuling looked around, and said confidently: "These days, there has been a big thief in the city. I don't know his name. I call it the "Embroidered Thief". An organization in Shendu, its name is [Red Shoes], its members do not know how many people, but they all wear a pair of red embroidered shoes, and the leader is Gongsun Lan."

"Wait! Wait! I have some objections to what brother Jin said. This is the first time I know the name of [Red Shoes]. It's just that its personnel have been in God's capital for a long time, but I don't believe it."

But it was one of the four great arresters, Heluo hero Jiang Tianxiong questioned him, he had just entered the hall at this time, followed by a row of arresters.

"You two lords, Duke Qi, everyone, the gods are vast, and the three religions gather together. Some evil things are unavoidable, but His Highness King Wu is guarding them. If there is an organization that will cause disasters for a long time, I don't think the gods are so mysterious. What kind of embroidered red shoes, most daughters wear like this, you can see that Miss Ouyang is wearing the same, you can't say that Miss Ouyang is that [red shoes]!"

Yang Ke could feel that Ouyang Qing's originally soft fingers trembled for a moment, and later he heard Ouyang Qing softly say: "Although I can dance with swords, I can't stab people with needles."

snort!
Jin Jiuling snorted coldly and sat down.

Jiang Tianxiong smiled slightly, stepped forward and continued: "I have surveyed the scene, and the secret vault in Duke Qi's house is indeed empty. Perhaps this is not the work of outsiders."

While talking, Jiang Tianxiong suddenly shouted: "What are you doing!"

But towards the side, the butler of the Gaofu who was prostrate on the ground grabbed it.

With his palm, the heaven and earth air flow was gathered, the Butler Wang was kneeling on the ground, but at this moment he suddenly stood up, his limbs trembling, and a strange smile appeared on his face.

"The blue dragon will not die, the blood-clothed will be reborn..."

Steward Wang's face was bluish red, and something seemed to be shaking on his body, but he was restrained by Jiang Tianxiong's true energy, and he couldn't move his limbs, and he couldn't even turn his head.

When he was chanting something, his whole body was like fire, and green smoke rose. At this moment, Yang Ke suddenly waved his hand, and the Ice Soul Cold Light Sword emerged, and flew to the side of Jiang Steward, and a chill gushed out.

Even the air seemed to be frozen, and Jiang Tianxiong's true energy that restrained Butler Wang was manifested and frozen.

In just the blink of an eye, Butler Wang, who looked like he was about to burst into flames, was completely frozen by solid ice, leaving only one pair of eyes exposed.

"Ke'er, is he from the Azure Dragon Society?"

Gao Jiong looked at this scene and asked.

"It may or may not be."

Gao Jiong nodded, turned his head and shouted: "Send someone to raid his house."

The housekeeper of the Duke's residence naturally has family business outside, and he is not even too far away from the Duke's residence.

"Go to the treasury to have a look."

Looking at that person, the face that was frozen during the struggle, maybe there is still a breath, there is a high probability that he will not live, between the dead and the not dead, he may only have the life left to say a word.

Yang Ke could only ensure that he survived in the solid ice, stepped forward, and gave him another palm. The solid ice became a little more solid, and with the Ice Soul Cold Light Sword, the solid ice would not melt for the time being.

"Hey, you guys go, I'm going to rest first."

Before Yang Yong got up, he said something, and Gao Jiong said: "Brother, go and rest first, and wait for me and the younger generations to defeat the enemy."

When it comes to the treasury, most of the guards in Gaojiong's mansion are guarding here.

The surrounding lights were brightly lit, and there were trampled footprints everywhere on the ground. Lu Xiaofeng looked at Yang Ke's back and Ouyang Qing who was holding his arm beside him.

The flowers beside him were shaking their fans, as if they were listening to something.

The warehouse door was open, and a guard stood at the door.

When I entered it, it was really empty.

It can be smelled that some leftover smells are not ordinary products, herbs, finished medicines, and some scents left by divine soldiers.

"What was put here before?"

Yang Ke looked at the traces on the ground, felt some breath, turned around and asked.

Gao Jiong hesitated for a while, and said after a while: "Ke'er, I don't come here very often, maybe it's some swords."

Yang Ke nodded, looked at the surrounding walls, feeling a little puzzled, but he didn't know where his doubts came from.

Jin Jiuling, Yang Zheng, and Lu Xiaofeng were all looking around, but they couldn't find anything just by looking at their expressions.

There is nothing to see in this empty room, there are no windows or anything, and the few tiny ventilation holes are all designed by famous craftsmen, with twists and turns, making it difficult for insects and ants to enter.

Only the gate can be entered and exited. Outside the gate is a corridor, one is also a sealed corridor, and then there is another door, and the guards are guarding the door.

There are no traces of demolition around, not to mention that the structure of the house is mostly made of refined iron, and there are guards guarding and patrolling everywhere. It is not difficult to transport the property away without disturbing people, even if there is internal support.

"[Red Shoes] has been around for a long time, they are women from different backgrounds, gathered together, each with their own abilities, maintaining the peace in the city of God.

At night, they will sneak into various mansions to search for some crimes. King Wu once said that this is justice in the shadows, so this is not and cannot be done by them. "

Standing under the tree, Gao Jiong spoke suddenly, Yang Ke listened quietly, he knew [red shoes].

This organization does exist, Gongsun Lan also exists, and many people know it.

This is not some deep secret.

However, after stealing to Gao Jiong's mansion, and getting involved with "The Embroidered Thief", Yang Ke looked at Jin Jiuling who was busy at the moment.

As if aware of Yang Ke's gaze, Jin Jiuling glanced back and continued to ask questions.

"It's actually not difficult!"

Yang Ke said suddenly, Ouyang Qing took his arm and asked curiously, "What's not difficult?"

"It's not difficult to solve the case."

Yang Ke was talking, but Ouyang Qing was pushed away by him, but it was Yang Ke who was surrounded by sword energy and was afraid of hurting her.

"What kind of swords does uncle have in his collection?"

"There is only one [Duan Shui Jian] worthy of praise, and most of the rest are ordinary weapons."

Wanjian Guizong is not just the art of sword control, it is called Swordsmanship. This is one of the highest realms of swordsmanship. Once used, Wanjian will see his master like a servant and come to worship him.

It's just that Yang Ke has never used this technique before, and others only think that this is just a sword-controlling technique.

Guards with sabers or sabers, the guards with sabers naturally have no abnormalities, the guards with swords, at this moment, only feel the sword hidden in the sheath vibrate and fly out.

One foot, three feet, ten feet, gradually stretched, and the swords gathered in the sky above Yang Ke.

Jin Jiuling and others looked at the swords gathering in the sky with hot eyes.

A series of sword weapons flew over and joined them.

A cyan sword light galloped over, merged into the sword formation, and was instantly located in the center of the formation.

Lu Xiaofeng flew towards the secret storehouse, he saw the trajectory of that cyan sword light.

Flying out of the secret vault.

Just like running water, spinning and flowing, the sword rain gathered in the sky returned to heaven and earth.

A cyan sword light fell into Yang Ke's hands, not as agile as the Qingsuo sword, but it has another kind of aura.

The body of the sword is transparent, but the light of the sword is blue, flowing endlessly, seemingly as gentle as flowing water.

Jin Jiuling and the others had already rushed into the secret vault, and Yang Ke also walked in at this time.

The purpose of entering is the flashing light of gold and silver, gold and silver ingots, piled up and covered three walls.

Each stone box looks like it also contains valuable treasures.

There are indeed millions of family assets.

Gao Jiong's family assets were not removed or stolen, they were only disguised, and they are still in the treasury.

I'm afraid, waiting for Gao Jiong to go on a long journey, most of the guards in the mansion will be mobilized, and then will be a good opportunity to take away these belongings.

Butler Wang is just a dead man and a craftsman.

Looking at the exposed wall, it was hidden so skillfully that even a few god catchers didn't notice it.

If it weren't for Yang Ke, who noticed the sword intention and felt that this secret room theft was really weird, he would have doubts.

Every time the divine sword in the wall was silent, when he summoned it, it jumped out, easily solving the mystery!

"Shadow Wall!"

Seeing the gold and silver in his eyes, Lu Xiaofeng's heart trembled slightly, but he didn't love money, and he just lost his mind for a moment, and immediately thought of another case.

The stolen screen wall.

And those few cases were all the same secret room theft.

He wasn't the only one who thought of it, Yang Zheng also thought of it.

At this time, none of them said goodbye to Gao Jiong, they just left the secret storehouse and ran towards the outside of the mansion.

If it hadn't been for Gao Jiong to come out one after another, and his messengers went in to clean up and take stock, those guards would have thought they were absconding in fear of crime.

"Although this money is a lot, it is necessary to maintain the family business. It is only used for military training, and it is only enough for a few years."

Gao Yan said and looked at Yang Ke doubtfully, where is his [Shui-Breaking Sword]?

Why didn't you come back?

Not only the Duan Shui sword, but also several other swords, all of which were treasures accumulated by the Gao family through the ages, and they could be called divine weapons in the rivers and lakes.

"Uncle stay behind!"

Yang Ke turned around and left. If he didn't leave, would he be waiting for Gao Jiong to ask for those swords?
Gao Jiong was still wondering, who had given the thing Yang Ke had just held in his hand?
While looking around, he saw Yang Ke walking away.
