The Lin family's mansion was in chaos. The news of the warehouse being stolen spread like wildfire. All the guards and servants were dispatched to look for the treasure thief who stole the warehouse.
Lin Wei was so angry that he almost fainted. Fortunately, Lin Quan ordered someone to find the best doctor in Hongluan Town. With acupuncture and medicine, the master of the family was finally saved.
Speaking of which, he had offended the Jia family not long ago and lost a daughter. He had been holding back his anger. Now that the warehouse was stolen and the three treasures he regarded as his life were all gone. The two angers combined finally made him collapse.
On the bed, Lin Wei was still breathing more in than out and was extremely weak. At this time, Lin Quan, the leader of the guards, stood in front of the bed shamefully, with worry in his eyes.
"Lin Quan, you must find the thief. Otherwise, I will not rest in peace even if I die. Cough cough!"
Although extremely weak, Lin Wei was still thinking about the lost treasures and wished he could get out of bed now and find all the lost treasures.
This loss was almost fatal to the Lin family. The entire warehouse of natural treasures was almost half of the Lin family's property, but now it was all gone.
Of course, those ordinary spiritual herbs were nothing. The most important thing was that the three treasures were also lost. For those three things, he didn't know how much thought he had put in and even how many people's lives he had harmed before finally getting these three treasures by every means.
Now, everything has been in vain. His busy life and calculations for most of his life have disappeared overnight.
"Master, I have sent everyone out to inquire for news and will surely capture the treasure thief!"
Lin Quan didn't dare to look into Lin Wei's eyes. He had received great favors from Lin Wei, and Lin Wei also trusted him very much. But he couldn't even guard the other's property.
He knew very well that since the treasure thief could quietly empty the entire warehouse, it must be an unimaginably terrifying existence. With just the people of the Lin family, it was impossible to find the things back.
"Look for it! You go and look for it yourself too. If you can't find it, don't come back to see me!!"
Lin Wei's emotions became agitated again. He was not a fool. What Lin Quan could think of, he could think of too. He knew that the Lin family was probably targeted by a big shot this time. Maybe it was a famous thief in Leiyun Prefecture. For that level of thief, even the law enforcement department of Leiyun Prefecture had no way to deal with it, let alone the insignificant Lin family.
"I will go and look for it myself right away. Master, please calm down and don't get angry and damage your health." Lin Quan trembled all over. But he didn't dare to stay any longer. After apologizing, he hurriedly retreated.
"My jade ginseng, my fire ganoderma, my heavenly fragrance fruit......"
After Lin Quan left, Lin Wei was like crazy, constantly murmuring the names of the lost treasures, feeling extremely regretful.
As for the jade ginseng and fire ganoderma, he actually wanted to exchange them for money and deposit them in the bank long ago. But because he couldn't bear to part with them, he suppressed such thoughts again and again.
As for the heavenly fragrance fruit, he spent a large sum of money and even sacrificed several Lin family guards to get it. Originally, he had long wanted to eat the heavenly fragrance fruit himself. But because he had never met the conditions for taking the heavenly fragrance fruit, he delayed it until now. Now that the heavenly fragrance fruit was lost, even if the conditions were met, it was meaningless.
The heavenly fragrance fruit is a spiritual fruit from foreign lands. It is extremely rare in the Great Zhou Dynasty. He encountered a foreign merchant by chance. After a careful plan, he finally took this heavenly fragrance fruit for himself.
The heavenly fragrance fruit is a miraculous thing that can prolong life. It is said that ordinary people who eat this thing can not only get rid of diseases and disasters but also prolong their lives. It is simply a treasure that money can't buy.
However, the conditions for taking the heavenly fragrance fruit are very 苛刻. Only by gathering several special spiritual herbs can the effect of prolonging life of the heavenly fragrance fruit be exerted. And the rarity of those special spiritual herbs is almost no less than that of the heavenly fragrance fruit. This is why he still can't take the heavenly fragrance fruit until now......
Lin Quan was indeed very responsible. Although he knew it was very difficult to get the things back, he still led the people of the Lin family to search all over Hongluan Town overnight. In the end, almost everyone in Hongluan Town was disturbed.
Unfortunately, no matter how hard he tried, the result was already doomed. The losses of the Lin family could only be borne by Lin Wei himself.
Speaking of which, Lin Quan's efforts were not completely in vain. However, the beneficiary of his efforts was not the Lin family but the Jia family!
"The people of the Lin family are really something. They started looking for it in the middle of the night. It seems that my plan can only be abandoned for now!"
At the intersection of Hongluan Town and Yingchou Mountain, Yun Xiao stood on a low peak at the foot of Yingchou Mountain and looked at the situation in Hongluan Town from afar. He couldn't help feeling a little pity.
Speaking of which, after stealing the Lin family's warehouse, he originally wanted to go to the Jia family and visit their warehouse too. But before he could figure out the details of the Jia family, the people of the Lin family started making a noise.
With the noise from the Lin family, the whole Hongluan Town was awakened, including the Jia family. After learning that the Lin family's warehouse was stolen, the Jia family almost instantly activated all protective measures. The guards of the entire Jia family were in three layers inside and three layers outside. I'm afraid not even a fly could fly in, let alone steal the warehouse in the Jia family.
"Well, I have gained quite a lot this time. In addition, I should do less of this kind of petty theft. After all, doing this kind of thing too much might be addictive."
Pursing his lips, Yun Xiao simply gave up the idea of stealing from the Jia family.
He was not the kind of person who would do anything to achieve his goal. Stealing and sneaking around are not proper means after all. If he wanted to become a strong person, this way was not advisable.
In addition, there was no enmity between the Jia family and him. Last time, he led the flower-tailed marten group into the Jia family, which had already caused the Jia family to suffer a lot. Whether it was to vent his anger or punish them, it was almost enough. There was no need to keep holding on.
"Still, it's better to sort out the gains this time and further improve my strength. With so many spiritual plants and treasures I got this time, I think at least I can double my strength and be closer to the minor accomplishment realm."
Recalling his gains this time, he believed that so many natural treasures would surely bring him many benefits no matter how bad they were. For him now, any increase in strength was the capital for him to survive.
Thinking of this, he no longer cared about the situation in Hongluan Town. With a movement of his body, he rushed into Yingchou Mountain.
