Traveling through the busy farmland of a peasant girl

Chapter 194 Discovering Gold, Silver and Jewelry

Shen Li and Shen Yu slowly walked into the small building and walked along the dim corridor that exuded an old atmosphere. They carefully scanned every corner, not missing any place that they had not carefully explored yesterday.

When they reached a more secluded corner, Shen Yu keenly noticed that the stone slab under his feet seemed to be a little strange. He squatted down and moved a floor tile with force, and a hidden pull ring suddenly appeared in front of him.

Shen Li's heart moved, and after looking at Shen Yu, Shen Yu reached out and grasped the pull ring, pulling it hard. There was a low sound of a mechanism turning, and an entrance to the basement slowly appeared on the ground. A slightly damp and mysterious breath blew towards him.

The two of them walked down the stairs carefully. The light in the basement was extremely dim. Shen Li gently waved her sleeves and performed a simple lighting spell. The soft light instantly illuminated the entire basement.

There were several boxes of items placed in the basement, with the lids slightly open, and dazzling light emanating from inside.

Approaching the box, Shen Li and Shen Yu couldn't help but be shocked by the jewels in front of them.

Boxes of jewels sparkled brightly under the light, turning the entire basement into a world of treasures.

Among them is a string of pearl necklaces. The pearls are round and full, and each one emits a soft luster, like dew in the moonlight. They are uniform in size and flawless, as if they were the purest elves carefully picked from the deep sea. They complement each other on the necklace, and each pearl seems to be telling its own story.

There are also jewellery inlaid with various gemstones. The rubies are like burning flames, bright and vivid, reflecting charming light under the light. The internal texture is like the veins of flames, smart and fiery.

Sapphire is a deep, dark blue, like a lake in the tranquil night sky. That touch of blue seems to absorb one's soul. It is also like the core of an ancient glacier, revealing endless mystery and coldness.

Emeralds are like new leaves in spring, with a hint of vitality in the rich green. Every texture is a masterpiece of nature's magic, as if it contains the spirit of the forest and the rhythm of life.

Boxes of gold and silver were piled up like mountains. The gold bars shone brightly in the light, like small mountains of gold. The heavy texture showed endless wealth.

The silver ingot emits a cool silver light, and the lines on its surface are delicate and exquisite, like traces engraved by time, witnessing its past glory and vicissitudes.

Shen Li narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking about the origins of these jewels, gold and silver.

Is this the treasure left here by the rich businessman who didn't have time to move it?

Or is there some other unknown reason?

But no matter what, these unexpected gains undoubtedly added more possibilities and imagination to her planning of the small building.

Although Shen Li was surprised by the sudden huge wealth, her years of caution still made her suspicious, worrying that there might be other unknown secrets hidden in it.

She turned to look at Shen Yu, her face stern as she spoke, "Shen Yu, I feel like there's something fishy going on here. Go upstairs and see if there's anything unusual. I'll take a closer look here."

When Shen Yu heard this, although he was a little worried, he nodded in agreement and turned to walk towards the stairs.

Shen Li thought to herself that the amount of jewelry, gold and silver discovered accidentally was so huge and their origins were unknown, which was indeed a tricky situation.

She knew very well that this matter must be handled with caution and there must not be any mistakes, otherwise it would very likely bring disaster to the Shen family.

She thought to herself, now that this thing is in her hands, as long as she keeps her mouth shut, no one will know about it.

Moreover, he owned that mysterious space. As long as he quietly transferred these treasures into it, they would be like a stone sinking into the sea, without any trace left. Even if someone with ill intentions wanted to spy on them, they would have no way to do so.

After Shen Yu's figure disappeared at the stairs, Shen Li took a deep breath and slowly approached the boxes filled with jewels, gold and silver.

She gently waved her sleeves, casting a weak spiritual barrier to cover herself to prevent any sudden danger or trap.

Then, she took out a storage bag that she had prepared long ago from her sleeve. This storage bag was a treasure she won in a lottery. Although it looked small, it could hold a large number of items.

Shen Li concentrated his energy and slowly injected his spiritual power into the storage bag. At the same time, he stretched out his hand and gently waved at the jewelry, gold and silver.

Those dazzling jewels and shining gold and silver seemed to be pulled by some powerful force. They slowly rose up one by one, drew beautiful arcs in the air, and then flew into the storage bag in an orderly manner.

The pearl necklace is like a nimble silver snake winding in the air, the gemstones such as rubies, sapphires and emeralds are like twinkling stars, and the gold and silver are like rushing gold streams and silver waterfalls.

Shen Li was concentrating on controlling all of this, with beads of sweat gradually oozing out of her forehead, but her eyes were extremely firm.

As the last piece of gold and silver fell into the storage bag, Shen Li gently exhaled and removed the spiritual barrier.

She stood there, holding the storage bag tightly in her hand, thinking about her next plan in her heart.

These riches are indeed tempting, but if they are not handled properly, they are likely to bring disaster to the Shen family.

She decided to keep the matter secret for the time being, and after returning to the Shen family, she would discuss countermeasures with the elders in the family to explore the secrets behind these jewels and gold and silver, while also ensuring the safety and stability of the Shen family in the process.

Shen Yu hurriedly checked upstairs and found nothing unusual, so he hurried back to the basement. At this time, Shen Li had returned to the first floor, looking calm, as if nothing had happened.

"Shen Yu, I have restored the basement to its original state and locked it. There are too many weird things about this place. Let's go back to the Shen family first and then make a long-term plan." Shen Li said softly.

Although Shen Yu was somewhat puzzled, he didn't ask any further questions and simply nodded. The two of them walked out of the small building together. Shen Li slowly closed and locked the door, making a dull sound, as if temporarily sealing this secret.

They got on the carriage, the driver raised the whip, the carriage started slowly, and the wheels rolled on the cobblestone road, making a rhythmic sound.

Shen Li sat in the carriage, holding tightly in her hand the storage bag containing jewels, gold and silver. She looked through the window at the small building that was gradually moving away, with a thousand thoughts in her mind.

She wondered about the origins of the jewelry, gold, and silver. Could they be related to the previous wealthy owner of the small building, or was there a bigger conspiracy hidden behind it?

Shen Yu was guarding silently on the side. Although he didn't know what Shen Li did in the basement, he knew that Shen Li must have her own considerations, and he just needed to assist.

Along the way, the carriage bumped forward, passing through bustling streets and passing by fields and villages.

In the car, Shen Li sometimes closed her eyes in deep thought, and sometimes whispered a few words with Shen Yu about the recent situation of the Shen family and how to deal with possible troubles after returning.

As she got closer to the Shen family, Shen Li's uneasiness gradually dissipated, and was replaced by a determination. She was determined to use her wisdom and ability to protect the Shen family, and at the same time unravel the mystery behind the small building, so that these unexpected gains would become a boost to the Shen family's development rather than a source of trouble.
