Shengjing Noble

Chapter 555 Hero, spare your life

Su Lanyin changed into a black nightgown, and then took advantage of the darkness to fly out of the window and headed straight for the pawnshop she had been to during the day.

……

Landing on the roof of the pawnshop, Su Lanyin looked down and made sure that there was no one there. Just as she was about to go down, she heard footsteps.

She quickly squatted down and looked in the direction of the sound.

I saw the shopkeeper and his waiter coming over.

"Boss, you see, I followed her all the way and even sneaked in to get the money while she was asleep. Even if I didn't do anything, I still worked hard. You can't just give me nothing, right?"

The shopkeeper was in a very good mood. He took out a hundred-liang note from a stack of silver bills and gave it to the waiter.

"Here, it's your reward."

The clerk looked at the banknote in his hand and said unwillingly, "You have several thousand taels. If you don't want to split it equally, you should split it 20/80 or 30/70, right? You only give me 100 taels. Isn't that just giving away a beggar?"

The shopkeeper said disdainfully, "Who do you think you are? If I hadn't seen that you are so skillful and could open a lock, do you think I would have given you a hundred taels? For a thief like you who was arrested for theft before, it's great that I'm willing to use you. Why are you pretending!"

"How can you talk like that, boss?"

"What's wrong with me saying that? Don't push me too far. It's just the hundred taels. Do you want it or not?"

After saying that, the shopkeeper turned around and walked away with a swagger, leaving the young man stamping his feet in frustration.

Su Lanyin's eyes rolled and she immediately thought of something. She jumped up and jumped in front of the boy.

Without waiting for him to scream, she grabbed him and flew onto the roof. Then Su Lanyin pushed him to the edge of the eaves and grabbed his collar with one hand. If she let go, he would fall.

The young man was so frightened that he clasped his hands together and begged for mercy.

"save……"

Su Lanyin threatened: "If you dare to shout, I will make you fall down and be smashed to pieces!"

The help was swallowed back, the young man looked forbearing, and then asked aggrievedly: "Uncle, I have no grudge against you, why do you treat me like this!"

Su Lanyin said coldly: "You stole my banknotes, and you still have the nerve to say that you have no grudge against me?"

The young man's face changed drastically when he heard this, and he immediately denied it: "I don't understand what you are talking about!"

"Really? In that case, I'll help you."

As she spoke, Su Lanyin loosened her fingers, and the young man immediately fell back.

He tried to grab Su Lanyin's hand in horror, but she stabbed a silver needle into his shoulder, and his hands became extremely stiff and he couldn't move at all.

"You...what did you do to me?"

"If you don't want to die, answer my questions honestly."

"You...you ask!" Seeing her fierce look, the boy immediately learned his lesson.

"Where's my money?"

"I……"

"If you want to say you don't know, fall down immediately!" Su Lanyin threatened.

The young man swallowed his saliva and looked at her with tears in his eyes: "It's with the shopkeeper."

He originally wanted to say "I don't know".

"Oh, you gave him my money, what do you mean?"

"Great hero, please spare my life! He is the one who threatened me, so I had to do this!"

"So, if I threaten you, you will do anything I ask you to do?"

"what?"

The young man looked confused, but Su Lanyin gave him a wicked smile and quickly stuffed a pill into his mouth.

Being caught off guard, the young man swallowed it directly, staring with horror and asking, "What? What did you give me to eat?"

Su Lanyin pulled him back, crossed her arms and said, "I gave you a slow-acting poison. Five hours later, if there is no antidote, your intestines will rupture and you will die, and you will be in great pain before you die."

"What? You...you are lying! How can there be such a poison in the world?"

"It's okay if you don't believe me. Soon you will feel pain in your stomach for the first time."

"me!"

Before the young man could say anything, he felt a sharp pain in his stomach. He squatted down, holding his stomach, and it took him a long time to finally catch his breath.

The pain is like my stomach is breaking.

Su Lanyin smiled and asked, "How is it? Do you believe it now?"

The young man was sweating profusely and nodded continuously.

"I believe it, I believe it... Great hero, please spare my life!"

Su Lanyin looked down at him and said, "I'll give you a chance to live, do you want it?"

"miss you!"

"I want you to steal the most valuable treasure of this pawn shop for me!"

"What?" The young man looked shocked.

"I only want you to be able to do it. If I can't get it before dawn, you will die in agony. And I tell you, the pain you just felt is only the beginning. It will get more and more painful as time goes by."

"No... I'll go, I'll go right away!"

After saying that, the boy turned around and tried to run downstairs, but found that the roof was very high and he didn't dare to go down at all.

Without waiting for him to ask for help, Su Lanyin grabbed him by the collar and dropped him into the yard.

"Go ahead and meet here before daybreak."

"Yes!"

As soon as the young man turned around and left, Su Lanyin went in the direction the shopkeeper had gone before.

She successfully found the shopkeeper's residence, then lay down beside the door, poked a hole in the cloth on the window frame, and secretly looked inside.

The shopkeeper hid all the banknotes under his pillow and then went to bed contentedly.

Su Lanyin waited for a while until she heard snoring from inside, then she sneaked in through the slightly open window.

In order to prevent the shopkeeper from waking up, she casually sprinkled a handful of drugged smoke to make him sleep more deeply.

"People in this world are really complicated. It seems that we need to be more cautious in the future."

As she spoke, she pushed the shopkeeper's head aside and took out the silver bill from under his pillow.

I simply counted it and it was exactly one more, not more.

It seems that this old guy has done a lot of cheating, even stealing and robbing!

What a pure bad guy!

Thinking of this, she turned around and walked around the house, took away a few valuable items that were easier to pack, and finally left a note saying "Hero Yisaoguang was here", and left.

When I returned to the yard, the waiter had been waiting for a long time, holding a brocade box in his hand.

Su Lanyin walked over, and he immediately handed the item to her like offering a treasure: "This is the treasure of this store."

"is it?"

She took the box and opened it, and inside was a parchment scroll.

Su Lanyin was very curious and unfolded the parchment. There was a map on it and a treasure was marked at the destination. It should be a treasure map.

"This is?"

"I don't know what it is, but our treasurer is very concerned about it and always puts it in the most important position in the vault."

"Really? Well, I'll believe you this time."

Su Lanyin returned the box to him and reminded him, "Put a blank parchment inside to prevent it from being discovered."

"Yes, thank you, hero. The antidote for that villain..."
