Chapter 385 Carefully
Chapter 385 Carefully
Chen Er hadn't expected it either. That damned Zhao Tianming's method of hiding things was really hard to find. If Chen Er hadn't searched carefully, he might not have been able to find it at all.
"Ma Dazhi, come here right now and tear down this wall. It's obviously all hollow inside; it must be Zhao Tianming's warehouse."
Chen Er's voice trembled slightly. He couldn't hide his joy. He had been waiting for this day for a long time and had dreamed of killing Zhao Tianming.
Chen Er had no sympathy for these corrupt officials. When Ma Dazhi, who was standing at a distance, heard what Chen Er said, his eyes lit up and he ran over breathlessly.
Ma Dazhi kept asking, "Sir, you haven't found it, have you? That's impossible. We've been through this study at least a dozen times."
Ma Dazhi found it hard to believe that after searching for so long, he actually found a hidden compartment in the study. If Chen Er hadn't personally led the team here today, they might not have been able to find Zhao Tianming's secret stash. Chen Er sighed, then said smugly.
“Ma Dazhi, this is experience. You all must be more careful in the future. The most dangerous place is the safest place. So Zhao Tianming may have hidden his secret stash in the study. Hurry up and take the men to make a move.”
Chen Er was incredibly excited and eager to know just how much gold and silver jewelry was hidden in Zhao Tianming's small warehouse.
After all, Zhao Tianming had been an official for so many years, and Chen Er would never believe that he didn't have a lot of money. Ma Dazhi immediately gave instructions and, along with his guards, rushed over to figure out how to completely break through the front wall.
Standing outside, Zhao Tianming noticed that Chen Er and his group had been in his study for quite some time and hadn't come out yet. However, the incense stick Zhao Tianming had lit had completely gone out, so he smiled and led Zhang Dashu inside.
At this moment, Zhang Dashu's face was beaming with a smile, because now he could finally get his revenge. Wasn't Chen Er incredibly cunning just now? He actually deliberately got injured and then shifted the blame onto him. The reality that he couldn't accept no matter what, had finally come to his head, and now it was time for him to stand up for himself.
With his hands behind his back, Zhao Tianming walked to the door and, without even looking inside, started shouting at the top of his lungs.
"Chen Er, you've been searching for so long, haven't you found it yet? Didn't I tell you? I'm penniless, I don't have any secret stash of money. Now it's time, come out and face your death."
However, Zhao Tianming's words could not hide his joy, but surprisingly no one answered.
At this moment, Chen Er was still discussing how to completely break down the front wall, so why would he pay attention to Zhao Tianming's roaring outside? Chen Er's ignoring of Zhao Tianming gave Zhao Tianming a bad feeling, because his secret stash of money was right here in this study. Could it be that Chen Er had really found it?
That's impossible. Apart from his wives, no one else would have found out. In fact, Zhao Tianming didn't know either. Of course, it was a waste of time. If Chen Er is not found soon, then things will turn around.
Zhao Tianming was about to leave Chen Er here. With a gloomy face, Zhao Tianming led Zhang Dashu inside. When Zhao Tianming saw Chen Er and Ma Dazhi and a few others gathered around that wall...
Zhao Tianming's body trembled involuntarily, because his secret stash of money was hidden inside the wall.
If this wall isn't completely breached today, things will get complicated. Zhao Tianming knew this perfectly well; he absolutely couldn't let Chen Er open the wall. If his secret stash was discovered, the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty would be furious that his wealth was greater than that of the entire Ming Dynasty.
How could the Emperor's delicate heart bear this? So Zhao Tianming had already made up his mind that he would not allow Chen Er to break through this wall today, no matter what.
"Zhang Dashu, time's up. Hurry up and arrest them. Don't let these thugs stay here any longer."
Zhao Tianming said in a serious tone. Although he was very nervous inside, he did not show it on the surface.
Zhao Tianming has been an official for so long, he's already a cunning and shrewd fox spirit, how could he possibly reveal his true colors?
Upon hearing Zhao Tianming's order, Zhang Dashu didn't hesitate at all. With a wave of his hand, the guards who had been waiting outside rushed forward and surrounded Chen Er's group.
However, Chen Er was not afraid, because he had brought quite a few people with him this time: "Lord Zhao Tianming, what do you mean by this? Although the time has come, I have found it. Do you want to stop me? Have you thought about the consequences?"
Anyway, Chen Er completely defeated Zhao Tianming in the last martial arts competition.
Although Zhao Tianming was from Shaolin Temple, he was quite old after all, and could not be compared to Chen Er. Zhao Tianming's brows furrowed involuntarily. He secretly groaned inwardly, never expecting that his little treasure trove had been hidden so well and had actually been found.
However, the most urgent task is to arrest Chen Er and sentence him to death. Then, all the people Chen Er brought with him will be eliminated, and his own affairs will not be leaked. Only in this way can Zhao Tianming completely protect himself. After thinking about this, Zhao Tianming's eyes lit up, and he immediately gave the order.
“These people are actually causing trouble here! You should quickly inform Uncle Zhao Beixing and ask him to lend me his soldiers. I want to capture them all and burn them to death.”
Zhao Tianming's patience with Chen Er had reached its limit. Chen Er knew in his heart that Zhao Tianming sent Zhao Beixing over mainly to put him to death.
Chen Er knew that Zhao Tianming would show no mercy to his enemies, but Chen Er just smiled. Zhao Tianming's behavior showed that he was panicking and wanted to ask Lord Zhao Beixing for help. Chen Er looked at Zhao Tianming indifferently.
"Zhao Tianming, are you feeling guilty? Your secret stash is hidden right here on this wall, and you're still denying it. I think you're a duck. Men, seize Zhao Tianming!"
As soon as Chen Er finished speaking, Ma Dazhi and Xiao Liu took the first step forward, fiercely drawing their side knives. As long as Zhao Tianming's men were driven away, these two tiger-like figures would be the first to attack.
