Chapter 08: Chapter 8 Go find something in the house

Chapter 8 Go find something in the houseWalking to the gate of the courtyard, I found a big copper lock hanging on the gate.

"Come on, give me a hand, I'm good at this." Feng Shuang, the second aunt of the Xie family, subconsciously brushed her dry hair, probably because she felt that the hand felt too bad. I touched my body, and then found out that there was no tool in embarrassment.

"That millet, give Second Aunt a tool."

Xie Xiaomi found the spare tool that the second aunt had put on her from the space, and handed it to her directly.

The second aunt of the Xie family flicked the copper lock with her fingers, lay there and listened to the sound again, then began to pick up tools and toss around, and after a while, she heard a click, and the copper lock opened in response"Hurry up, open the door and go in. I saw someone coming over there." Second Uncle Xie Jia said anxiously.

Xie Xiaomi and the others entered the house, and then closed the door with a bang.

"Everyone, look around to see if there are any clothes, cotton-padded quilts, even food, and scattered silver taels. Anyway, bring all the things you think are valuable here, and I will collect them into the space at that time."

"it is good."

Everyone whispered that they understood, and after they scattered in place, Xie Xiaomi started searching in the main hall of the front yard.

Looking at the messy footprints on the ground and the overturned furniture, one can imagine how anxious everyone was when they left.

Looking around, Xie Xiaomi put away all the furniture with a big wave of his hand. I don't know how much this thing can sell for, but no matter how little it is, it's still money, isn't it?

Walking along the front hall to the back is the yard. There is a corridor in the yard, and there are several houses beside the corridor. Xie Xiaomi walked in one by one. Whether it was furniture, calligraphy or paintings, she didn't miss them all, and put them all into the space. .

Until the last room was received, Xie Xiaomi's footsteps that were about to leave were suddenly attracted by a sudden depression.

Looking at the marks around here, there should be bookshelves here, right?Reach out to buckle the sunken place, and with a click, a drawer-like thing pops out from the wall.

Xie Xiaomi lowered his eyes, hehe, Yinzi.Presumably there are bank notes and some loose silver hidden here?The owner of this place left in a hurry, so he only took the bank notes and left the scattered silver coins here.I roughly estimated that there are about 20 taels, this is not a small income, and Xie Xiaole immediately blossomedPut the money into the space, and came to the front hall, and saw that everyone had moved everything and put it on the ground, but everyone's expressions were not very good, Xie Xiaomi's heart sank, and he asked, "What's the matter?" ?”

"Xiaomi. We saw a lot of corpses in the backyard, but those corpses were all eaten and only bones remained." Father Xie supported the pale mother Xie, and said solemnly to his wife.

"It seems...that group of people who were active in the next village has already come here. Let's hurry into the town, buy something and leave immediately. Everyone is very weak now, and it's not the time to confront them head-on."

"it is good."

"Yes, let's go."

Xie Xiaomi's urgency has infected everyone, and everyone's heart is there, wishing to put on wings and disappear from here in an instantHowever, when Xie Xiaomi looked down at the things everyone had searched for, the corners of his mouth could not help but twitch a few times"That's all?" Looking at the scattered tables, chairs, benches, calligraphy and painting porcelain vases, Xie Xiaomi found in despair that there was nothing useful here."That's all. I think the kitchen, bedroom and other places have been searched. They are all clean and nothing is left." The second aunt of the Xie family looked helplessly at the things on the ground. .
