Chapter 12

~8 min read 1,519 words

In the evening with stars hanging high.

Servants holding lanterns were patrolling inside the mansion.

Sticking to the wall, Zhang Cheng watched Bai Yutang without any movement, a look of surprise appearing in his eyes.

Because judging from the other party's methods, this must be a habitual thief!

Pointing his hand forward, Bai Yutang gave Zhang Cheng a look.

Noticing the other party's thoughts, Zhang Cheng hurriedly ran to the crescent gate in front to observe.

After seeing the servants walk away, the two quietly climbed onto the eaves and then followed the light towards the backyard.

However, it must be said that Grand Tutor Pang is worthy of being the Imperial Father-in-Law; this mansion is truly large!

Carefully following Bai Yutang, the two finally arrived at the backyard.

Looking at the locked mansion warehouse door and the patrols on both sides, Zhang Cheng frowned.

Because according to this situation, he should rush out with an AK and perform a wave of single-handed suppression!

But the problem is, he doesn't have an AK!

Turning his head to look at Bai Yutang, Zhang Cheng made a gesture, asking her to attract attention, and then he would rush up and take them down!

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Bai Yutang showed a look of suspicion, and then pointed at him, signaling him to attract attention!

But just as the two were constantly "arguing" about who should go, their hands were almost gesturing into afterimages.

In the end, Bai Yutang couldn't stand wasting time like this and directly picked up a stone and threw it at Zhang Cheng's position.

"What sound?"

Looking at the dark direction vigilantly, the guards immediately stepped forward.

With wide eyes, Zhang Cheng looked at Bai Yutang in disbelief.

Because he suddenly understood one thing now, that is, Bai Yutang didn't necessarily come to teach him lock-picking, but might also have treated him as a "cushion"!

And was Grand Tutor Pang's mansion so easy to burgle? If he were caught, exile for three thousand miles would be the least of it!

Waving goodbye to Zhang Cheng, Bai Yutang smiled and then disappeared from the spot quickly.

Looking at Bai Yutang in shock, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but cover his face and say, "Damn, who said the martial arts people of the Northern Song Dynasty are loyal..."

Watching the guards getting closer, Zhang Cheng bent down and then slowly lowered his breathing.

But just as the turning guard turned his head, he directly dislocated one person's jaw with one hand and then quickly knocked the other person unconscious.

"Uh, uh, uh..."

Looking at the guard who wanted to make a sound, Zhang Cheng kicked the other person's neck.

Just as the guard fainted on the spot, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but wipe his cold sweat and said, "So close, fortunately I know the bone-dislocating hand, otherwise I would have been pitted into Lin Chong tonight!"

Lin Chong: Please turn on your mic!

Thinking of being tattooed and exiled, Zhang Cheng thought for a while and said, "Wait, since she played like this, couldn't I also disregard martial ethics!"

Taking advantage of Zhang Cheng delaying the guards, Bai Yutang had already slipped into the mansion warehouse.

Just after she opened the boxes inside, her eyes immediately shone, because Grand Tutor Pang was truly rich.

And there were at least over a million taels of silver stored here.

Thinking that this was all blood and sweat money from the commoners, Bai Yutang directly picked up the bag on the side and started loading things.

However, just as she was busy, Zhang Cheng also ran in.

Watching Zhang Cheng unharmed, Bai Yutang couldn't help but look him over.

Because this guy didn't look that simple!

Knowing magic tricks and having such good skills? Could it be that he, like her, also came to Kaifeng Prefecture to play hide-and-seek?

Thinking of this, Bai Yutang threw out a gold ingot and said, "Here, this counts as my apology!"

"You take Grand Tutor Pang's... bah, you take my money to apologize to me?"

Looking at Bai Yutang in disbelief, Zhang Cheng was also shocked.

"What do you mean your money, this is all blood and sweat money from the commoners, it needs to be returned to the commoners..."

Hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Bai Yutang immediately defended herself.

"Yo ho, still a righteous thief?"

Looking at Bai Yutang, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but sneer.

Because her way of doing things was the stupidest one!

Suddenly becoming rich, not to mention whether the commoners could keep the money, but if Grand Tutor Pang knew his money was taken and distributed to the commoners, he would definitely go crazy!

And it's better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish.

If Bai Yutang used this money to do some real industry, she could estimate that she could take care of more people.

After all, finance ruins the country, industry makes the country prosperous!

Ignoring Zhang Cheng, Bai Yutang quickly loaded the silver ingots into the bag.

Watching Bai Yutang finally unable to carry it, Zhang Cheng then opened the box and exchanged all the silver inside for transaction points.

After all, with money, he could "exchange for goods."

If porridge and pickles could make one wear the yellow robe, then wouldn't his instant noodle army be able to pierce through the earth?

Thinking of this, Zhang Cheng's smile gradually became outrageous.

Situ Yaozu: Standing before you is the strongest carbon-based organism of the 10th century, the global person in charge, the surname of the Heavenly Emperor...

Zhang Cheng: Hehehe!

"Hey, are you laughing so scary? Hurry up and move, it's almost dawn!"

Coming to Zhang Cheng's side, Bai Yutang couldn't help but pat his shoulder.

Coming back to his senses, Zhang Cheng immediately reacted and immediately collected all the silver here.

And just after the silver was moved away, Zhang Cheng noticed the bookcase.

Stepping forward to look, Zhang Cheng rubbed his chin quite curiously and said, "Wait, this book..."

"What are you looking at?"

Coming to Zhang Cheng's side, Bai Yutang became curious.

But just after Zhang Cheng took out a book inlaid with gold thread, Bai Yutang blushed.

"Wow, truly worthy of being a Grand Tutor, it's actually a full-volume illustrated edition!"

Looking at the book in his hand, Zhang Cheng felt admiration for Grand Tutor Pang for the first time.

What is called "old but young at heart," this is it!

"Eh, why are you blushing? Do you also read the Spring and Autumn Annals?"

Looking at Bai Yutang curiously, Zhang Cheng was stunned.

"You actually take this kind of thing, truly shameless, I read the Doctrine of the Mean!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng angrily, Bai Yutang turned and ran away.

Watching Bai Yutang's back, a smile rose at the corner of Zhang Cheng's mouth.

He really wanted to see how long the other party could hold on!

Acting, in this day and age, who isn't an Oscar-winning actor?

Quietly returning to the Kaifeng Prefecture prison, Bai Yutang scattered all the money to the commoners.

"You didn't take any money?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng curiously, Bai Yutang was confused.

"Zhang Mou disdains such dung!"

Speaking with a light and airy look, Zhang Cheng seemed like an expert outside the world.

Looking at Zhang Cheng in surprise, a trace of curiosity about him arose in Bai Yutang's heart.

Because that was Grand Tutor Pang's mansion warehouse, with over a million taels of gold and silver, but he didn't take a single cent!

Watching Bai Yutang's admiring gaze, Zhang Cheng silently turned his head.

He didn't know why, but he suddenly felt a bit panicked; it seemed his cultivation was still not enough!

The next morning.

When Grand Tutor Pang was awakened by the urgent knocking on the door, he saw his son Pang Yu shout, "Dad, something big happened!"

"I'm fine! Nothing big happened!"

Looking at Pang Yu with disdain, Pang Ji couldn't help but scold.

Because this son of his only knew how to cause trouble all day long, and he didn't know how to find a daughter-in-law for him as soon as possible, so that the old Pang family could continue the family line!

"I know you're fine, but the warehouse, the silver in the warehouse is all gone!"

Speaking anxiously, Pang Yu shouted.

"What? The silver in the warehouse, gone!"

Stunned on the spot, after Pang Ji finished listening to this sentence, he didn't care about his son beside him and hurriedly rushed to the backyard.

But just after Pang Ji saw the opened box and the missing silver inside, the whole person was stunned.

"This is what you did, right? My good son! Don't mess around, return the money!"

Looking at Pang Yu with a smile, Pang Ji stepped forward and pressed his hand on his shoulder.

Because in the Pang family, only two people could empty this place, one was Grand Tutor Pang, and the other was Pang Yu!

Looking at Pang Ji blankly, Pang Yu widened his eyes and said, "No, you suspect me?"
