Power of Money

Chapter 1319

Wei Jiuhe was beheaded in public, and Wei Qingtian ordered the personal guards of the Master's Mansion to go directly to the mansions of Wei Jiuhe, Wei Xiao, Qin, and Wei Feng. They were ordered to conduct a full search and take all the related family slaves who were related to the three people.

The crowd in the mansion had not dispersed yet, and Wei Qingtian had been standing in front of the door, waiting for the return of the personal guard team. He would give the citizens a final answer and calm down the storm as soon as possible.

Everything seemed to be progressing in an orderly manner.

"I've only been here once at the home of the Master. When I was chosen as the tomb guard many years ago, I came in to pay a visit to the Master. I only remember the strict security of the house. The guards are scattered all over the place. Even if outsiders enter the house, they won't be able to go deep in."

In the southeast corner of the City Lord's Mansion, two people squatted on the back of the huge fish tank and whispered to each other.

"Besides, the Master's Mansion is the largest mansion in Wei City. There are more than 20 inner houses, dozens of people coming in and out, countless rooms and attics. If we find them in this way, we don't know when it will end and we will be easily exposed," Wei Zipei said in a low voice.

Jason raised his eyes and looked through the fish tank at the guards who had just walked past the gate ten steps in front of him orderly. He said, "Wei Jiuhe won't be hiding in these rooms. There must be a secret room in the House Master's house. If we want to find him, we have to first figure out the underground situation here."

The secret chamber in the pond in Wei Xiaohan's backyard reminded Jason. In ancient cities, there were many secret passages and secret chambers, for the nobles in the city to avoid risks. Even Wei Xiaohan, a deputy mayor, could arrange the secret chamber so carefully, not to mention Wei Qingtian, who was in charge of life and death of a clan.

Wei Zipei looked at him and asked, "Why did you say that the person who died is not Wei Jiuhe? I've seen him before. How could I be wrong?" Even now, Wei Zipei still didn't understand why Jason and the Virgin Goddess would insist that the old man who was killed in front of the door was not Wei Jiuhe. Moreover, she must go deep into the City Lord's Mansion to find the real body of Wei Jiuhe. She could never forget the face of Wei Jiuhe in this life, but why didn't Jason and the Virgin Goddess believe it?

Jason glanced at her and said, "Have you heard of face changing?"

Wei Zipei was stunned. Before she could say anything, her wrist was grabbed by Jason.

"Someone is coming."

While they were talking, footsteps and the sound of conversation came from far to near, and they came in the direction of the two.

"The Master ordered to kill Wei Jiuhe. I didn't expect Wei Jiuhe to be so loyal to the Master for the rest of his life. I can't believe that he would end up like this in the end."

"To be in the king's company is tantamount to living with a tiger. Wei Jiuhe faked the will of the Master to force the Grand Warlock to his death, and the entire clan of Wei Jiuhe to be exterminated. I'm afraid that the future of this city is on the verge of apocalypse."

The two who spoke were bodyguards who were in charge of the back courtyard of the family. The two walked to the fish tank and fiddled with the cold water in the tank. They looked around and then turned around to leave.

It was not until the footsteps disappeared that Jason and Wei Zipei stuck their heads out from the fish tank again.

"Do you still think your speculation is true?" Wei Zipei asked in a low voice as she looked at the backs of the two people.

Jason did not answer. He looked deeply at the open courtyard door and asked, "Have you heard of smoking mice?"

Wei Zipei was stunned. "What?"

"Follow me."

Jason grabbed Wei Zipei's hand and left quickly.

"What are you doing?"

In a dimly lit room, Wei Zipei looked at the stove in front of her and didn't come to herself for a long time.

"Aren't you going to find Wei Jiuhe? What are you taking me here for?"

Jason glanced at her and directly

picked up a fint from the stove. He urged Wei Ziyu to stuff some

firewood and straw into the stove as much as possible. Then he hit the flint with it and lit a pot of dry firewood.

Wei Zipei looked at him with confusion, but she didn't ask any more questions this time.

Instead, she took the stick from Jason and handed it to her. Then she heard Jason say, "You're in the front yard, and I'm in the back yard. Keep all the places you can light. Let's meet in the fish tank Hurry up."

After that, Jason ran out with the torch.

Wei Zipei squatted there and thought for a long time. Suddenly, her beautiful eyes shrank violently, and she picked up the torch and ran out. "Is it on fire?"

The guards, who were inspecting the backyard, saw the thick smoke billowing in the air. They stopped in their tracks and subconsciously looked in the direction of the backyard.

"I'll go to the backyard to see what's going on."

The Deputy Commander of the personal guards, Wei Ziyang, frowned and ordered.

"Vice Commander, it seems that there's also smoke in the front yard."

At this time, someone suddenly turned his head and said in the direction of the front yard with his finger in surprise.

"There are more smoke. It seems that there is a fire in the back yard!"

"Tell people to put out the fire and carry water!"

"Guards! Turn off the fire!"© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Strands of thick smoke rose from every corner of the clan master's residence, as if a beacon had been set on fire.

What was the effect of the act of two pure-blooded people stealing and setting a fire?

The enormous House Master's

estate was instantly covered in thick smoke! Black smoke billowed into the sky and the smell of smoke was pungent. In an instant, nothing could be seen. The entire House Master's estate was in a state of chaos. Even the House Master, Wei Qingtian, Who was standing at the entrance at the moment, turned his head in confusion and looked at the mansion behind him.
