Chapter 688: Chance, does bad things (2)

The torrential rain continued to fall, with no sign of stopping at all. From time to time, the roars of soldiers and generals could be heard, but Xiao Tianyao’s voice was absent.

One hour has passed, two hours have passed… … The rain hasn’t diminished, but the roars of the soldiers have become much quieter. Occasionally she can hear a few words, but they are not as panicked as before. It seems that they have completed the rescue job.

Lin Chujiu sat in the tent and waited for another quarter of an hour, but still didn’t see Xiao Tianyao coming back, nor did she hear Xiao Tianyao’s voice. No one came in to help Xiao Tianyao get his clothes.

As everyone knew, although Xiao Tianyao used Su Cha’s tent as his office, his clothes were still in the main tent.

“Xiao Tianyao is not in the camp?” With such heavy rain, where would Xiao Tianyao be if he was not in the camp?

As soon as this idea surfaced, Lin Chujiu couldn’t shake it away and felt like its more likely.

“The northern army has already retreated, so it’s impossible to go to their military camp. The black-armored guards are outside, so it’s impossible to go to them. Did Xiao Tianyao go out to find a doctor for Xuanyuan Zhi?” Lin Chujiu said based on what the shadow guard told her. She learned that Xuanyuan Zhi’s situation was not very good, but… …

“Even if he went to find a doctor for Xuanyuan Zhi, he wouldn’t leave at this time.”

The more Lin Chujiu thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong, and overturned all her previous guesses. But she didn’t know other reasons apart from these possibilities, so she couldn’t think of any. However, just when she was about to give up, an idea flashed on her mind.

“I see!” Lin Chujiu’s eyes lit up, snapped her fingers, and said excitedly: “The black iron ores! Xiao Tianyao must have led some people to steal the black iron ores. If it was me, I would choose to do it today. The weather, the location, the people are all preoccupied. There is no better opportunity than this.”

The night was dark and windy, and the rain was pouring. This kind of weather was the most suitable for robbery. There was nothing to worry about, the heavy rain will wash away all traces. Not to mention, the black-armored guards were outside the barracks, so even if Xiao Tianyao emptied all the black iron in the mine, they wouldn’t know.

Just as Lin Chujiu thought, after Xiao Tianyao brought her back, he took Liu Bai and Mo Qingfeng to the mine of black iron ores, preparing to loot all the black iron ores.

This was not something he planned in advance, but a sudden act. When he went to look for Lin Chujiu, he saw the puddles outside Imperial Doctor Zhu and the tent that was about to collapse. He suddenly had a bold idea, and that was— to take advantage of the rainstorm to grab the black iron ores, and then create an accident, let the mine collapse, and cover up all the evidence!

This method cannot be implemented in normal times, but it was no problem tonight. With such heavy rain, it was normal for the mines to collapse, and even the Central Empire can’t find anything wrong with it.

Of course, Xiao Tianyao would not let go of such a heavenly-given opportunity. The reason why he didn’t talk to Lin Chujiu before he left was that he was worried, and because he didn’t have time.

He was not God. He doesn’t know when the rain will fall again, he must race against time and not waste a moment. So he rushed to the mine before the heavy rain stops. He wanted to use the heavy rain as a cover to do all this.

Xiao Tianyao believed that Lin Chujiu was smart. Even if he didn’t say anything, Lin Chujiu could guess. it After all, no matter what he did during this time, he never avoided Lin Chujiu, didn’t he?
