47: Chapter 47 Night Raid

Sigh, ever since I started watching the Streamer's broadcast, every day I see either someone getting locked up or someone kicking the bucket. I'm really afraid I'll be next. Although my Great-Grandmother visits me in my dreams because she misses me, I don't really want to go down there so soon.

To the person above, don't worry. I used to dream about my Great-Grandmother just like you, but ever since I dug up her grave, I haven't dreamed of her again. You should try it, personally tested and effective!

Holy crap! Foster father, is that for real? I'm going to buy a Luoyang shovel right now. I heard there are quite a few treasures in my Great-Grandmother's grave!

Ahem... to the person above... can you take me with you? The treasures aren't important; what's important is that I want to help out!

Me too, me too! I'll bring my own bowl and chopsticks... er, I mean, Luoyang shovel.

Holy crap? What are you planning to do, you guy above?

After waiting for a long time, Granny Long still couldn't remember, so Qin Mo and his companion had no choice but to stay at the Long residence.

At some point, thunder and lightning began to rage outside, and it gradually started to rain heavily.

It was already nearly the middle of the night, and both of them had gone to sleep.

Creak!

Suddenly, a tearing sound rang out, and Qin Mo opened his eyes instinctively.

In an instant, he was terrified, his face turning pale at the sight before him.

He saw a massive suit of armor standing in front of their bed, holding an axe that was about to come crashing down on them.

Danger!!!

Almost by reflex, Qin Mo grabbed the sleeping Ye beside him and threw him hard out of the way. At the very moment the axe descended, Qin Mo lunged aside, barely dodging the blow.

Seeing that the attack missed, the armor turned and ran wildly into the rain.

Huff... huff...

At this moment, Qin Mo was gasping for air. What had just happened was far too dangerous; they had almost lost their lives on the spot!

What are you doing?

At this moment, Ye, who was on the ground, climbed up and looked at Qin Mo with an annoyed expression. It seemed he hadn't noticed what had just happened.

Upon hearing this, Qin Mo immediately got angry: What is that attitude? I just risked my life to save you!

Ye was stunned for a moment, as if he hadn't processed it yet.

What did you say? Save me? What just happened?

Qin Mo irritably recounted what had just happened to Ye.

After listening to Qin Mo, Ye's face immediately turned pale.

He was just cold by nature, but in the face of such a situation, anyone would be scared.

Th... thank you!

What did you say?

Qin Mo widened his eyes and then said with a teasing expression.

You can actually say thank you? That's rare!

Then Ye said indifferently, We're even! But what's the deal with that armor?

How would I know?

Qin Mo spread his hands helplessly.

After this terrifying incident, neither of them felt sleepy anymore and stayed up until the next morning.

Qin Mo opened the live stream early.

Morning! Dog Streamer, what are you doing today?

Did you solve yesterday's murder case yet? Dog Streamer, your efficiency is a bit low! This isn't your style!

When can I see my wife? I haven't seen her for several days, I really miss her.

Damn it, you dog above, always thinking about my wife. Didn't get scolded enough last time, huh?

Damn it! Drop the address! I'm going to find you offline and deal with you for real!

Come if you dare, if you don't, you're my grandson!

Watching the barrage in the live stream, Qin Mo shook his head speechlessly.

Everyone, beauties and bros, no activities today, we're continuing to solve the case!

How did you sleep last night? Was it okay?

At this moment, a hoarse voice came, and Granny Long walked over carrying two portions of breakfast.

It was alright, we rested very well last night!

Qin Mo replied indifferently, and the two tacitly agreed not to mention what happened yesterday.

The armor was most likely someone from the Long family, but the two of them still didn't know what his purpose was.

Thinking of this, Qin Mo asked curiously, Granny Long, do you know about the armor?

Upon hearing this, Granny Long looked surprised.

Do you know about the armor too?

Granny Long paused and then said, Legend has it that in our village, a long time ago, there was a general who killed countless people on the battlefield. After he died, he was buried in our village with endless wealth, but no one knows exactly where.

Does this have anything to do with the armor?

Qin Mo asked curiously.

Of course it does. That general loved all kinds of armor when he was alive. Slowly, our village became obsessed with imposing armor. My late grandson had one in his room.

Ye, who was on the side, said indifferently, Can you take us to see it? We are also quite interested in armor.

Granny Long looked at the two of them with surprise.

Since you are interested, and it's still early, I'll take you to see it. Follow me.

Saying this, Granny Long walked towards a side courtyard first.

Qin Mo and his companion looked at each other and followed.

Before long, they arrived at a tiled house.

The furnishings inside were all made of wood; there was only a table and a small bed.

A suit of armor was being worshipped on the spirit tablet in front of them. Qin Mo recognized at a glance that this was the very armor that had tried to kill them last night!

This... this...

At this moment, Qin Mo was shocked, but he didn't make a scene immediately and stood there without saying a word.

Granny Long pointed to the armor being worshipped and said, This is it, the armor my grandson loved most when he was alive, but... sigh...

Speaking of this, Granny Long sighed, clearly still brooding over the death of her grandson.

Look at the words on the armor's flag!

Ye suddenly said.

Qin Mo scanned it instinctively.

Its speed is as fast as the wind, when still it is as slow as the forest, when invading it is as fierce as fire, when defending it is as immovable as a mountain.

Is this? The Art of War?

The pupils of both men shrank in shock.

Does this mean the killer is using methods from The Art of War to commit the murders?

They are: Wind, Forest, Fire, Mountain.

Hu Xiao, who was blown into the sky by the tornado at the beginning, represents Wind; Hu Xiaojuan, who was murdered on the mountain, represents Forest; the little grandson of the Long family who was buried in the soil represents Mountain; so then...

The next one to be killed will most likely be Fire!

Thinking of this, the two of them immediately fell into deep thought.

Why did the killer kill? And why kill people from two families at the same time? Is there some kind of grudge? Why did the killer leave a centipede?

And why did he attack the two of them last night?

Could it be that he didn't want them to interfere with him?

Ahem... sorry Streamer, sorry to interrupt! My ancestors were tomb... er, archaeologists. Can you send the location? I sincerely hope the general's information can be brought to light. It's definitely not for the endless wealth, right! Definitely not!

Ahem... what a coincidence, my family too, take me with you!

The two tomb robbers above, you've shown your true colors, haven't you? Be good, tell me your address. To me, you are walking 500,000!

Is the person above a bounty hunter? Planning to take them all out at once?

Oh ho, Brother Mo's live stream is full of talent! Tomb robbers, and bounty hunters catching tomb robbers, and everyone talks so well, I love this place!

At this moment, Qin Mo happened to glance at the live stream, and a flash of inspiration hit him.

Wealth?
