Chapter 2723
Soon, the Rolls-Royce driven by Sister Xian stopped in the courtyard of Zijin Villa.
Without waiting for Sister Xian to open the door, Lin Wan'er pushed the door and got out of the car herself. While walking toward her top-floor courtyard, she said without looking back: "Sister Xian, from today on, I will not step out of the house. You just put my three meals a day outside my courtyard gate, and you can leave after knocking on the door."
Sister Xian was surprised in her heart. She understood that Lin Wan'er didn't want to have military training, but she didn't understand why Lin Wan'er wanted to stay indoors.
But as a servant, she shouldn't ask what she shouldn't ask, so she said without hesitation: "Okay, Miss Lin, I know! Do you have any special requirements for your meals?"
"Whatever." Lin Wan'er said casually: "You arrange it as you see fit."
After speaking, she ran quickly to the top floor, pushed the door, and entered her small courtyard.
The elderly Qiu Yingshan saw Lin Wan'er go up the top-floor steps from afar, hurriedly walked out, stopped Sister Xian, and asked: "Shuxian, isn't the young lady having military training at school recently? Why did she suddenly come back?"
Sister Xian shook her head and said with a blank face: "Sir, Miss Lin just called me to go to the gate of Jin Ling University. After getting in the car, she said she didn't intend to participate in the military training, and she would come back to live these days. Moreover, she also said that from today on, she would not step out of the house, and even asked me to put her three meals a day outside the courtyard gate..."
"Oh..." Qiu Yingshan nodded gently and instructed: "Order it down, except for you going to deliver meals to the young lady, no one is allowed to disturb the young lady."
"Okay, sir." Sister Xian knew that her master respected Lin Wan'er extremely, so she was not surprised at this time.
Therefore, she took out her mobile phone and said respectfully: "Sir, I will go and make a call to the school leaders of Jin Ling University to inform them."
Qiu Yingshan nodded: "Go."
At this moment.
Earl Changsheng, who had finished testing the power of the Thunder Command, had just returned to the city with great joy.
The first thing he did when he returned to the city was to go straight to the Antique Street to find Zhang Ermao.
However, Zhang Ermao had already closed his stall in advance under his instruction.
Earl Changsheng didn't see Zhang Ermao, but caught up with several stall owners who hadn't finished packing up. He hurriedly asked: "Everyone, it's only past three in the afternoon, why are you in such a hurry to close your stalls?"
The man was busy packing things and said without raising his head: "Didn't you watch the weather forecast? It said there might be extreme weather, so why not hurry up and close the stall and wait for the rainstorm? We are already closing late."
Earl Changsheng suddenly realized.
He thought to himself: "There is no extreme weather, it's just the thunderbolt I summoned in Phoenix Mountain."
But this also indirectly proved that the thunderbolt he just summoned was indeed earth-shattering.
Earl Changsheng wanted to ask someone about Zhang Ermao's whereabouts, but after thinking about it, he had already spent a very high price to buy two antiques from Zhang Ermao. If he looked for him too closely, he was afraid that Zhang Ermao would become vigilant.
After thinking about it, he decided to find a place to stay near the Antique Street today, and wait until tomorrow morning to look for Zhang Ermao's traces on the Antique Street again.
At night, Earl Changsheng sat cross-legged on the bed, but could never enter meditation. The reason was nothing more than being immersed in excitement and unable to extricate himself.
Therefore, he couldn't help but take out the Thunder Command again, stroking it while sighing: "To obtain such a magical artifact is truly a blessing from heaven. Twenty years ago, I killed Ye Changying and his wife here and made a great contribution. Twenty years later, I obtained such a treasure here again. It seems that this Jin Ling is indeed my blessed land!"
Just as he was sighing, his mobile phone suddenly received an internet call from the Lord.
His expression was shocked, then he hurriedly connected the call and said respectfully: "Lord..."
On the other end of the phone, a cold voice questioned sternly: "Earl Changsheng, when did you arrive in Jin Ling?"
Earl Changsheng said busily: "Back to the Lord, the subordinate arrived in Jin Ling this morning."
The Lord added: "It should be late at night where you are now. You have been in Jin Ling for more than fifteen hours, why haven't you taken action against the An family yet?"
Earl Changsheng's heart skipped a beat, and he said: "Lord, the subordinate just arrived in Jin Ling today and hasn't had time to familiarize myself with the environment of Jin Ling..."
The Lord questioned: "Didn't I already tell you? The An family all live in Wanliu Villa in Jin Ling. You only need to rush to Wanliu Villa in the middle of the night and kill them all to avoid long nights and many dreams. Such a simple matter, what else do you have to familiarize yourself with?"
Earl Changsheng hurriedly said: "Lord, the subordinate may need a little more time to conduct an in-depth understanding of the situation of the An family, otherwise, if there are fish that slipped through the net who are not in Wanliu Villa when taking action, this matter will not be easy to handle..."
The Lord said coldly: "An Qishan and his wife, as well as their three sons and one daughter, are all in Wanliu Villa tonight! It is the best opportunity for you to take action! It is two o'clock in the morning where you are now. If you set off now, you will still have time to send the An family on their way before dawn!"
Earl Changsheng said respectfully: "Lord, you asked the subordinate to investigate the whereabouts of the son of Ye Changying and An Chengxi. The subordinate hasn't found any clues yet. If I take action against the An family now, I'm afraid that the kid will be afraid of throwing the rat and will never dare to show up again..."
The Lord snorted coldly: "You only need to kill An Qishan and his wife, as well as his three sons and one daughter, and the kid surnamed Ye will naturally appear!"
Earl Changsheng asked in surprise: "Lord, the subordinate dares to ask you, why are you so sure?"
The Lord said coldly: "According to the An family asset inheritance order set by An Qishan, once he and his children encounter accidents, the An family assets will be divided into two. Half will be inherited by the children of his three sons and one daughter, and the other half will be inherited by An Chengxi's son. That is to say, once they die, that kid surnamed Ye will become the largest heir to the An family assets. This is a fortune of thousands or even tens of thousands of billions of US dollars. Such a big thing will definitely be known all over the world. As long as that kid is still alive, he will definitely not be able to refuse this temptation. No matter where he is, he will definitely appear to claim this huge inheritance. At that time, you can kill him without any effort!"
As he spoke, the Lord continued: "Time is running out, you set off quickly now!"
Earl Changsheng's heart skipped a beat.
He had long known that his primary mission for coming to Jin Ling this time was to kill the An family, but he didn't expect that as soon as he arrived in Jin Ling, he would find two magical artifacts one after another.
Now, he was still hoping to find more magical artifacts by following Zhang Ermao's clues, so in this situation, how could he be willing to take action against the An family immediately?
He knew clearly that the An family was, after all, the third-ranked top family in the world. Once action was taken, it would inevitably trigger an uproar in international public opinion;
He also knew that once the An family really died in China, the Chinese authorities would definitely investigate to the end at all costs. At that time, he didn't know how many capable people would be sent to Jin Ling to investigate clues. By then, his actions in Jin Ling would be greatly restricted.
It was even very likely that after killing people, he would be wanted globally by relevant Chinese departments. In that case, how would he have the opportunity to dig into Zhang Ermao's line?
After all, Zhang Ermao was not the key figure in grave robbing. Even if he killed him, he wouldn't find the supplier's clues. Such things can only be taken by wisdom, not by force...
Therefore, the best solution was for the Lord to give him a few more days to let him dig Zhang Ermao's line to the end, and then go to solve the An family without distraction!
Just when he was hesitating and didn't know how to ask the Lord for a delay, the Lord questioned sternly: "Earl Changsheng, ever since I let you go to Jin Ling, you have been pushing back and forth. Now that you have arrived in Jin Ling, I let you take action against the An family, and you still delay giving me a clear reply. Could it be that you have a second heart toward the Anti-Qing Society?!"
Earl Changsheng was so scared that his back felt cold, as if countless needle tips had pierced into his skin, making his whole back feel like it was being pricked by needles. He could only say in fear and trepidation: "The Lord misunderstood the subordinate. The subordinate is loyal to the Anti-Qing Society, how could I have a heart of betrayal... It's just... It's just that the subordinate has one more thing that I haven't had time to report to you!"
The Lord said coldly: "You say!"
Earl Changsheng pondered for a moment, gritted his teeth, and said: "Back to the Lord, the subordinate accidentally obtained a magical artifact in Jin Ling today!"
