Chapter 667 Finding the Wang Family
Chapter 667 Finding the Wang Family
It wasn't until dark that Du Mingxian and Ling Silang changed into their night clothes. Qiu Shu and the others wanted to follow them, but Du Mingxian refused.
Ling Silang doesn't know martial arts, but he can enter the spatial dimension with other people. It's inconvenient for Ling Silang to enter the spatial dimension, especially since there's also An'an.
Once they reached the outside of the Wang family residence, Du Mingxian sent Ling Silang into her spatial dimension to take care of An'an before climbing over the wall to enter herself.
There were few people around at night, and the Wang family didn't have the kind of people that powerful and wealthy families would arrange for to guard and patrol at night. After entering, Du Mingxian quickly found Wang Jin's courtyard first.
She had been to Wang Jin's courtyard before; it was easy to find.
But when she went inside, she didn't see anyone. To make things easier, she even wore night vision goggles. As a result, she saw that Wang Jin's courtyard was very desolate, as if no one had lived there for a long time.
Even if a family like the Wang family didn't live there, they would have servants to clean the courtyard regularly. But there was no one in the courtyard; not a single servant was there.
Du Mingxian's bad premonition grew stronger. She didn't enter the space, but went to other courtyards. She only saw people in the main courtyard, with servants moving around and lights on.
She avoided people and quietly approached, only to hear the sounds of a woman's pleasure coming from inside the room. Moreover, there was more than one man inside. She quietly poked a small hole in the window and saw a woman inside who she did not recognize.
As soon as someone moved around, Du Mingxian flashed into the space and saw a servant hurriedly walking in from outside, standing at the door and knocking, "Madam, Madam."
The woman inside was very unhappy about being disturbed, and her voice was filled with anger, "Speak, what is it?"
"Madam, I'm afraid the eldest young master is not going to make it."
"Report back when you're dead."
The servant responded with a "Yes," and turned to leave.
Seeing this, Du Mingxian quietly went over the wall and stood outside waiting for the servants to come out of the courtyard. Then she went to the neighboring courtyard and followed them all the way. After the servants went in, they never came out again.
She went up to the door and observed carefully, and found that the servant went in and fell asleep immediately.
The eldest young master is probably not going to make it; something happened to Wang Jin.
Some couldn't wait any longer and didn't have time to investigate each place one by one, so she directly used a sleeping potion, then quietly went in and brought the servant out, threw him into her spatial storage, and then went to a secluded courtyard of the Wang family, randomly found a room, and then threw the person out. Ling Silang also came out with her.
“I went to Wang Jin’s courtyard but didn’t see anyone. Then I went to the main courtyard and saw a strange woman. The servant called her Madam and said that the young master was not well and might not make it. The woman said to wait until he died before reporting back.”
“This servant must know everything and has betrayed the Wang family.”
Ling Silang understood what had happened. "Give me the silver needles, and I'll take care of the rest."
"Okay." Du Mingxian handed the silver needles to Ling Silang, turned around and lit another candle, then stood aside to watch Ling Silang interrogate people.
Ling Silang acted quickly. Even in the dark, his acupuncture points were incredibly accurate. In just a moment, the servant had several needles inserted into his body, and then he woke up.
If you just fell asleep and then opened your eyes to find yourself in an unfamiliar environment with two people standing in front of you, you would be scared half to death.
"Who are you... what do you want?" The servant didn't shout because... he felt that he couldn't move his body, he could only speak.
"Who we are is not important. Tell us what happened to the Wang family, and then tell us who the woman living in the main courtyard is now."
The servant instinctively shut up, not wanting to speak, but Ling Silang didn't give him a chance and injected two more needles. The servant lost all feeling in his body, and his heart was about to jump out of his chest.
"I... I'll say it." His voice was hoarse as he tried to shout, but the words still came out very softly.
Ling Silang sneered, "If you know what's good for you, you'd better say so sooner rather than later. Don't force me to take drastic measures, or you'll only want to die."
The servant nodded hurriedly, "I'll talk, I'll talk."
Ling Silang removed the last two needles. The servant felt a sense of sensation return to his body, but he couldn't move. He secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time, he felt a little more afraid of the person in front of him.
"The main courtyard is currently occupied by the lady..."
“Start by telling us how the Wang family got into trouble, and then tell us where the Wang family members are now,” Ling Silang reminded him.
The servant hurriedly said, "I... there's a secret room in the room I live in, and the Wang family is in that secret room."
Du Mingxian then spoke up, "What did you mean when you said the eldest young master was no good?"
"The young master has been tortured and has a persistent high fever. He is already... breathing more out than in."
Du Mingxian and Ling Silang were both startled and worried. At the same time, they were in perfect sync. Ling Silang didn't ask any more questions and quickly gave the servant several more needles, causing him to faint.
Du Mingxian stepped forward to put away the candles, and then escorted Ling Silang and the servants into the space.
She rushed into the room as quickly as possible. Once inside, she released the servant, but this time she didn't dare light the lamp. She restored the servant's freedom of movement, but stuffed something into his mouth, afraid he would scream.
Ling Silang inserted the needle, and the man woke up. Ling Silang held a dagger to his neck and said in a very low voice, "Open the door."
The servant walked tremblingly to the bedside, quietly climbed in, and found a box inside. After opening the box, there was an ornament inside. He reached out and turned it halfway around, and the bed moved to a different position.
An unpleasant odor wafted out from below; it was stuffy and fishy.
Fearing there might be someone downstairs, Du Mingxian stepped forward and asked, "Are there any other people downstairs?"
"Apart from... apart from those who are locked up, there is no one else."
Du Mingxian didn't quite trust him and said to Ling Silang, "Give him poison and let him go down first. Be careful, it might be a trap."
"it is good."
There were still some poisons in the space. Ling Silang would research some when he had nothing to do, just in case he didn't have any when he needed them. He casually picked up a poison that would make people uncomfortable but not deadly and stuffed it into the servant's mouth.
"This poison will only make people feel uncomfortable for the first three hours. If they get the antidote in time, they can still be saved. If there is no antidote, they will suffer unbearable pain for the next three hours. After another three hours, they will be determined to die, until finally their intestines are ruptured and they die."
The servant was terrified and nodded repeatedly, not daring to do anything rash. He was just a coward who loved life and was afraid of death; otherwise, he wouldn't have betrayed the Wang family.
Trembling with fear, Ling Silang was about to follow when Du Mingxian stopped him, saying, "I'll go first, you go behind."
"I come."
“You have no fighting skills, so you will be in danger in an emergency. I can protect myself.”
Ling Silang always felt particularly helpless at times like this, and even thought about learning martial arts, but at his age, it was already a bit late to learn martial arts.
In the end, Du Mingxian walked in front and Ling Silang walked behind.
There was a light below, an extremely dim oil lamp.
After Du Mingxian went inside, she found that it was not very long, only about ten meters to the place where people were imprisoned, which was separated by a fence.
