Chapter 5454 Treasure
"How many brothers were injured?" Zi Yan asked.

"We also had dozens of casualties, there is no way, they fought too hard, so this time there are not many survivors." Ji Lianqi smacked his mouth and said.

Zi Yan glanced at Ji Lianqi, she only believed half of what he said.

It is true that there is the reason Ji Lianqi said, but it is more because he is a bit of a changed person, he is bloodthirsty, killing people is like killing chickens, as long as he finds an opportunity, he will kill them.

However, what does this have to do with her? He is a member of Ji's family, and he is also a lackey who submits to her, that's enough.

"Jiang Shao, I have strictly ordered my subordinates not to keep the gold and silver treasures in the cellar privately." Li Qingyan raised an eyebrow at Ji Lianqi as he said.

"Look at what I'm doing? Didn't I give the order? Do you think my Ji family has any secrets? In terms of loyalty to Young Master Jiang, I, Ji Lianqi, are much better than you. I, Ji Lianqi, have always been strict with Jiang Shao's orders." Discount!" Ji Lianqi said loudly.

"Okay, this matter, you can see it in the past." Zi Yan waved his hand.

She won't trust these two people completely, after all, she knows exactly what kind of character these two people have.

The reason why they were able to submit was because she was stronger than them. She not only subdued the two of them, but also controlled their core secrets, and gave them a poison that could be manipulated.

She didn't think she was attractive enough to make them submit willingly.

And in this way, once she is weak, the two dogs may turn to bite the owner.

Therefore, hearing is believing and seeing is believing, or only what you have seen with your own eyes can be reliable.

The layout of the entire house is in the garden style of the south of the Yangtze River, with various corridors, terraces, pavilions, and pavilions hidden in the water and flowers.

If it weren't for the many people who fell to death along the way, this scenery is enough to make people forget to return.

"Jiang Shao, it's just ahead, the entrance is in the middle of that rockery." Li Qingyan pointed to the front.

"Qingyuan, does the Li family have such an arrangement?" Zi Yan glanced sideways at Li Qingyuan.

Li Qingyuan followed Ziyan all the time, and he didn't say anything along the way. After all, he wasn't like Ji Lianqi and Li Qingyan, whose hands were covered with blood. He still felt uncomfortable seeing so much blood. Some pale.

Hearing Zi Yan's question, he was slightly stunned for a moment, then nodded and said: "There are cellars hidden in the rockery, this kind of arrangement is found in many rich merchants, it is not too unusual."

"Okay, let's go in and have a look."

Zi Yan nodded, just as she was about to take a step, Ji Lianqi, who was standing beside her, stepped forward immediately.

"Jiang Shao, I'll lead the way." Ji Lianqi said with a smile on his face.

"Okay, you go ahead, Qing Yan goes behind, Qing Yuan, you follow me." Zi Yan took advantage of the situation and rearranged.

Ji Lianqi walked in front, with his palm on the handle of the waist knife, always on guard.

The palm of the hand patted the edge of the rockery, and the rockery in the middle moved to the side, revealing a hole.

It's not dark here, because there are oil lamps every few steps.

"We walked for a while and saw a lot of gold and silver treasures, so we went back and closed the door again, but we don't know if there are still guards inside or if there is any danger," Ji Lianqi said.

"Don't be afraid if there is danger, there can't be a few people hiding in the cellar." Zi Yan said: "Come in together."

After entering the cave, Zi Yan felt a burst of warmth.

It was already cold winter, and the temperature outside was relatively low, but the inside of the cave was very warm. This was because the temperature in the cave did not change as drastically as outside, so it was warm in winter and cool in summer.

Stepping in, after walking for a while, turning a corner, Zi Yan's eyes lit up.

Ji Lianqi and Li Qingyan didn't lie, there really are a lot of gold and silver treasures here.

Boxes of gold and silver were piled up throughout the room, and there were many shelves of jewels, all of which were open and unsealed, and many of them seemed to have been brought in recently.

There is a door on the side, and it seems that there is a cave inside.

"Jiang Shao, do you want to open that door?" Ji Lianqi asked.

"Go." Zi Yan nodded.

Ji Lianqi directly pulled out the waist knife, grabbed it in his hand, and walked quickly towards the door. When he was close to the door, he pushed the door with one hand and raised the knife with the other.

This door is an ordinary wooden door, and when it is pushed hard, it will be pushed open.

Then, Ji Lianqi's eyes flashed, three crossbow arrows, followed by two sword lights, struck at him.

Ji Lianqi hurriedly jumped back, fell to the ground and rolled out.

Although the posture is very unsightly, but fortunately, he successfully avoided the crossbow arrows and the light of the knife.

The crossbow arrow missed Ji Lianqi, and shot into the nearby stone wall with a few puffs, and the tail was still trembling when it sank inside, showing that it was very powerful. If it hit Ji Lianqi, even the iron armor on his body might not be able to protect him.

And the two swordsmen who slashed out the light of the sword stepped out quickly. They both held slender blades in their hands and held the sword in both hands.

Orientals call their Japanese swords swords, but in Daqi, swords are called swords with double-edged swords. This is the result of the different cultures of the two sides.

"Hey!"

The two swordsmen snorted, and the swords in their hands flashed, and they slashed at Ji Lianqi who had just escaped on the ground.

Quick and accurate!
This saber technique must have something to do with the Orientals, and Ziyan has already determined it in her heart.

At the moment Ji Lianqi retreated, both Ziyan and Li Qingyan started to move, while Li Qingyuan squatted obediently on the ground and didn't move. Anyway, he didn't have any martial arts skills, so he rushed up to die, so he might as well hide behind so as not to drag others down.

"Qiangqiang..."

The sound of two metal collisions sounded.

The two swordsmen backed away. They slashed at Ji Lianqi's blade, but were blocked by Zi Yan's soft sword.

Just from Zi Yan's attack, they judged that this was a formidable enemy, if they didn't deal with it carefully, they would fall here.

"Who are you from Liusheng?" Zi Yan asked loudly.

The two swordsmen didn't speak, but their eyes fluctuated, which immediately made Zi Yan understand that they were really from the East, or from the East who knew Yagyu.

Zi Yan knew some Orientals, but Liu Sheng was the most powerful among them.

This person is obsessed with swords, and has reached a very high level in swords. His swordsmanship is one step away, and he will be fine if he does not draw his sword.

Except for Grandmaster, the world is so big that there should not be many people who can defeat Liu Sheng.

Liu Sheng is so powerful that he must have a high status among the Orientals. It is just right to use him to test the two swordsmen.

"Be careful, there are still crossbow arrows inside." Zi Yan said sideways.

"Do you want someone to come in?" Li Qingyan, who was standing a little behind, asked.

"No, the three of us are enough..." Ziyan paused for a moment, then glanced at Li Qingyuan who was squatting on the ground. Besides the three of them, there was also Li Qingyuan, who had a superficial skill in martial arts.
