I was just solving crimes, how could I become an immortal?

Chapter 185 Arson and Looting

The royal family's secret treasury collects the world's most valuable treasures.

Cao An went in once and got a page from the "Ten Life Canghui Sutra", which was a good harvest.

Of course, it was just good. Looking at the treasures in that large warehouse, Cao An wanted to gain a lot.

At least he had to get the third-grade sword he was interested in. This time the [Imperial Law] disappeared and the guardian formation was completely out of control, it was a good opportunity.

However, some people in the Tsing Yi Department held objections.

After coming out of the Immortal Tomb Cave, the Tsing Yi Department was completely assembled.

Because Si Tianjian was also attacked, he let the senior sister go back to help.

On the other hand, Chief Liang Qifeng, after arranging the office, also came to support. At this moment, including the twelve golden scales and the eighteen monks, they all gathered.

The person who raised objections was none other than our Lord Tisi.

With a serious and solemn look on his horse face, Liang Qifeng whispered: "Am I going to rob the secret treasury this time? Taking advantage of the situation to rob is extremely inappropriate."

This man, with his rigid integrity, sneered at such behavior.

But do we call this taking advantage of the situation?
  "We call this material supply." Cao An said righteously.

"Weapons and equipment are the most important strategic materials. Look at my Hundred Water Swords. They have curled blades. Isn't it reasonable to replenish a weapon and continue fighting?"

Cao An was quite thick-skinned when he spoke about the robbery in a righteous way.

It's true that weapons are strategic materials, but if you exchange a seventh-grade sword for a third-grade sword, is it a little over the top?
  Zhu Xian, who was beside him, hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Look at the treasures in the secret library. Many of them were captured by our Wild Wolf Army back then. Now they are all sent to the secret library. Our Tsing Yi Department has a lot of peace of mind." .”

In one sentence, the sadness of beating workers is exhausted.

Of course, there is Sanyang who is the most eloquent. When this person speaks, he speaks the truth of the world.

"Amitabha, look at that group of rebels. They have already invaded the secret treasury. If we don't stop it, this place will be looted. We will go to kill the enemies and they will be grateful. I picked up some casually. Baby, it’s normal.”

Monk Sanyang is really good at talking nonsense.

Monks never rob wealth.

Generally, they only use "begging for alms" and "suspiciously" to explain their behavior. If the other party refuses, it must be due to lack of understanding. Sanyang will use fists to force the other party to understand.

Hearing that the brothers in the department wanted the treasure in unison, and thinking that the Wild Wolf Army had repeatedly made military exploits in the past, but now it was being suppressed everywhere, Liang Qifeng also compromised.

He sighed and said helplessly: "In that case, let's each pick one. Be careful not to pick too many! I'll just pick up the [San Wen Tian Injury Pen]."

Everyone:? ? ?
  We haven't even entered yet, and you've already planned what to choose?

Where is the person you promised to be the most upright person in the entire department? Just a word of integrity?

Ignoring the gazes of everyone around him, Liang Qifeng pointed to the northwest and said: "This secret vault is very large and has more than one entrance. We can go around it from the west to avoid the court's eyes and ears.

"If you take something, don't expose it for the time being. After leaving the palace, we will go around the West Third Alley where the secret will not be discovered. Then we will store the treasure in a dark room and change the sign later."

Look, this is called professionalism.

You may seem like a decent person on weekdays, but if trouble breaks out, you have already figured out how to deal with it.

Everyone was chatting away, naturally not really idle, but waiting.

What are you waiting for?
  Of course, we have to wait for the Miku defense to be defeated! They don't want to be recognized by their own people.

The value of the palace secret storehouse is far more cost-effective than the useless dragon chair. The attacking team here is naturally very elite, so it shouldn't be a problem to attack the guards.

It's just that the moves of this group of people don't look like ordinary warriors.

"It seems that they are soldiers from Southern Chu. They are good at combined attacks. I have seen their tactics during the previous battles." As General Wild Wolf, Ying Changfeng had studied various countries when he raided Southern Chu.

The old man guarding the secret treasury was extremely powerful, but when faced with the combined attack and siege of six people, he was restricted at every turn and was defeated at this moment.

No wonder King Na'an was able to launch such a large-scale rebellion. It seemed that it was not only the forces he supported, but also Mo Renxiang and Nanchu.

There is no need to make a promise, as long as you promise to plunder at will when you launch a rebellion, a group of masters will come to help.

Nanchu was suppressed so badly back then, and today he came back with doubled revenge.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense and do it, otherwise we will really be in trouble."

Seeing that Daxing's masters had retreated, it was time for them to take the stage.

Ying Changfeng was full of energy and waved his hand: "Today, all the brothers present here are my brothers from the Tsing Yi Department. We have worked hard over the years and we are all blessed to enjoy it together. I will take you in to pick up the treasure today."

There are benefits, and everyone is naturally more motivated.

According to the stingy emperor's character, I am afraid that even if they have made great achievements today, they will not be qualified to enter here.

It's better to take this opportunity and let everyone choose it themselves and everyone will be happy.

Well, except for Xiaojiu, this one has never been happy.

"Why, I'm still here..." Xiao Jiu had a hopeless expression on his face, feeling that the world was too dark.

I promised to help only once, but now I have helped again and again.

Can't you let her go home? How long will a bunch of weird people be able to detain her, a little girl?

"We are worried about your safety. There is chaos in the city right now. It is too dangerous for you to be alone as a child." Zhu Xian gave a reason. Xiao Jiu looked at him expressionlessly: "Let's have a fight, I'll let go of all four of your arms."

"..."

Xiaojiu can summon the Dharma by himself and open the underworld. His strength is absolutely terrifying. Look at the eight arms of the Dharma. If four of them are left unused, even Zhu Xian won't be able to defeat him.

She just wanted to go home and eat candied haws in peace, and had no interest in the treasures in the secret vault.

Fortunately, Cao An has many ways to deal with such world-weary children.

For example, picking up a burning stick from the ground and handing it over.

"Why did you give me a torch?" Xiao Jiu took the torch reflexively, the disgust in his eyes was palpable.

She was only interested in candied haws, holding a torch, and looked so stupid.

"It's for you to burn and play with."

"Play on fire?"

"Yes, take it and burn wherever you want now."

After hearing Cao An's words, everyone took a step back.

For this girl who likes to give gifts to others, it is better to keep a distance with a flaming weapon in her hand.

As for Cao An's thoughts on this behavior, it is also very simple.

At this moment, the secret warehouse has been occupied by the rebels. There will definitely be a battle when they rush in. In the process of looting the treasures, it is inevitable to leave traces of moves.

Then simply set the battlefield on fire to eliminate as much trouble as possible.

Xiao Jiu looked at the torch in his hand cutely, then ran to a roof with short legs and tried to put the flame on the curtain.

coax--

Soon, the fire started.

"Okay~~~" Xiaojiu found a fun game, held a torch, and started setting fires everywhere with great interest.

Children all have a heart that loves their families, especially the world-weary Xiao Jiu.

Look, how much fun it is.

"Let's do it too! Remember, our target is only the Grade A treasure trove."

……

Outside the north of the city, King An and several of his cronies were hiding in a carriage, looking at the people fighting in the distance, quietly waiting for a key message.

Unfortunately, all that awaited was bad news.

"Your Highness, after the Tsing Yi Department followed Emperor Wan Jing back to the palace to aid, Cao An proposed to split up. At this moment, they are out of sight and are missing." The subordinate reported to King An across the carriage.

In the carriage, King An was holding a copper heater in his hand, and his mood hit rock bottom.

"Sure enough, Cao An still saw through my plan." King An sighed. Maybe he had expected it, but it still made him feel uncomfortable to be really sure.

A few days ago, news came back from Nanchu that the black-sailed treasure ship sank. The specific reason is unknown.

At that time, he had a hunch that this was done by Cao An. After all, this was very similar to the time when Cao An went to Nanchu.

Cao An is afraid that he has a lot of clues in his hands and has to guard against them.

That's why he hoped to use winter hunting to slow down Cao An.

To be honest, when Cao An led his team and crossed directly from the Huangquan fork in the ghost market, he really thought that his death was imminent.

According to the plan, as the commander-in-chief, he would disrupt the entire Shangjiang City's defenses and pave the way for subsequent plans. His spies, including those in the Jinwu Guards, would always confirm whether Cao An had left the winter hunting range.

I didn't expect that the other party was really so powerful. Not only did he go to hell, but he also saw through his plan, allowing Ying Changfeng to launch a sneak attack immediately.

Fortunately, it was precisely because Cao An was smart that he was not easily controlled. Instead of being loyal to the emperor, he was concerned about the safety of his comrades.

If it had been another dead soldier, in that situation, he would have fought tooth and nail to take his life. Fortunately, Cao An's loyalty was only left to himself and his friends.

Think about it, in order to complete this drama, he even wrote and directed the attack. Even the assassins did not know who his employer was.

Such a brutal assassination attack almost killed the crown prince.

Unexpectedly, Cao An still tracked him down. At this moment, the Qingyi Department was missing. They were probably deliberately avoiding his eyes. The great pressure made King An very uneasy.

Seeing that his master's perfect plan was thwarted by Cao An, his subordinates couldn't help but ask: "Your Highness, the Tsing Yi Department just disappeared, and there is no trace in the palace. Maybe it didn't come to us?"

King An shook his head and smiled bitterly: "The fact that he disappeared on purpose instead of searching the whole city proved that he had figured out my seven-point plan."

"But when he walks towards the palace, it doesn't look right."

"Escape from the palace is the best place to get rid of the spy. Otherwise, what do you think this means? You can't just lead the Tsing Yi Department and run to loot the palace."
