Yang Wang knew how crucial that point was but had no idea if anyone else had noticed. When he initially shone two torches to explore, the surroundings were so gloomily dark that it’s possible nobody else discovered it.

Even if they didn’t notice, it wouldn’t matter.

Regarding Yang Ye and Ma Dongshu, Yang Wang had pretty much determined why they had come to Anping Village.

Under the guise of assessing geomancy, they were in fact hunting for treasure.

Tsk, he had actually thought that Yang Ye had taken such a lengthy stay in Anping Village because he was overly fond of Qiao Xiaomai’s craftsmanship. He had underestimated Yang Ye.

Although his fourth brother was a seemingly idle prince, he actually had his fair share of ambition.

As for the two generations of the Tong family, Tong Tiehu, he could find no flaw in him no matter how hard he scrutinized. This old man was too composed, exuding balanced emotions under various circumstances, making it hard to find anything amiss.

No problem if there’s nothing to be found, for Tong Sanlang had a flaw.

A rural youth skilled in martial arts and excelling in lightness skill. Tong Sanlang’s mere existence was thus the greatest flaw of the Tong Family.

That is to say, no matter whether Tong Tiehu had any peculiarities, he had already set his sights on the Tong family.

There was uncertainty regarding when this secret tunnel was built.

No matter.

No noises of things being moved about had been heard.

It didn’t matter.

Evidently, the treasures were transported away during these days.

The size of this treasure should be clear just by looking at the cellar. Such a large batch of treasure couldn’t possibly have been moved out without making any noise.

Therefore, this treasure was still in Anping Village.

There must be a mechanism within this secret tunnel.

The Tong Family must have used this mechanism to shift the treasure to somewhere in Anping Village.

“General Cen, gather manpower and dig up the whole Anping Village. This batch of treasure is surely hidden here,” Yang Wang instructed.

Hmph, they all acted as if nothing had happened. Did they think he would be left clueless?

Naive.

Cen Hong nodded, “Your Highness, how many men would you like me to summon?”

“Summon the entire force of ten thousand stationed in Huai’an County.” Yang Wang replied.

Due to the existence of Bailu Town, Huai’an County had a larger population than other counties and therefore, a proportionally larger garrison as well.

Ten thousand men should be more than enough to excavate a small village. “Yes, I’ll return to the County Town immediately,” acknowledged Cen Hong. “Go ahead. I’ll inspect the secret tunnel once more to see if there’s any new discovery.” Saying this, Yang Wang returned to the secret tunnel, hands behind his back.

“Your Highness…do you wish to notify Prince Wei?” Cen Hong hesitated before asking.

“No need,” Yang Wang responded without turning back.

Yang Ye was but an idle prince, holding no official title or substantial power. He was not a cause for concern.

At this point, no one could block his treasure hunting endeavour.

He had traversed this long secret tunnel several times already. This time, he made use of his lightness skill and swiftly dashed towards the cellar.

If such a large batch of treasure had been moved by a mechanism, then the mechanism must be in or around the cellar.

He was going to inspect these areas once again more thoroughly this time.

About a mile from the cellar, he stopped and felt brick by brick, including the gaps in between.

Unfortunately, he didn’t find anything.

At this point, his guard brought some breakfast, which he ate hastily before continuing to feel the bricks.

Soon, he had covered the entire cellar and every spot on the surrounding walls within arm’s reach.

“Fetch a ladder,” he ordered the guard behind him.

He had inspected the top of the cellar with Cen Hong multiple times, although they were using torches and were more hasty back then compared to his level of detail this time.

Yes, it warranted another thorough inspection.

Soon, several ladders were brought and erected, with guards holding torches accompanying him, inspecting meticulously.

By noon, he finally made a new discovery: one brick was distinctively different from the others.
