Since they already found them, Gu Ning wouldn't let them go. She planned to catch them and find out where He Siyang was hiding.
"According to the situation, they must have sent someone to keep watch by the seaside, so they must have noticed our cruise ship when it approached the island. They wouldn't hide in these houses. Since this is an ancient house, there should be secret passages and secret rooms. Let's search for them first. If they aren't, we can go somewhere else, "said Gu Ning. Although she clearly knew where they were hiding, she had to search for them first in order to keep her secret.
Even if they were facing Leng Shaoting, she still wasn't ready to tell Leng Shaoting all her secrets. If it was possible, she hoped that no one else would know about her rebirth and her Jade Eyes.
"Sure." Leng Shaoting had the same idea, so he agreed and started to search for them.
There weren't many rooms here, so it didn't take them much time.
After 10 minutes, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting arrived at the room with a secret room.
"The other rooms here are clean. They must have stayed here before," Leng Shaoting said with certainty.
After that, they began to look for the switch of the secret room.
Gu Ning used her Jade Eyes to see the position of the switch of the secret room, but she couldn't open it right away. She pretended to look for it for a while before she found it.
The switch of the secret room was in the corner on the right. It was a slightly protruding brick.
"Shao Ting, have a look. This brick looks a little different. Could it be a switch or something?" said Gu Ning.
Leng Shaoting walked over at once. He noticed that the brick was indeed a little different, so he thought that it might be a switch. "Step back. Let me do it."
Leng Shaoting was afraid that it might be a trap or a hidden weapon, so he told Gu Ning to step back.
Gu Ning knew that it wouldn't be dangerous, but she felt warm when Leng Shaoting protected her. After that, Leng Shaoting pressed his hand on the wall. With a loud sound, the wall opened like a door.
The sound wasn't loud, but it alarmed the people in the secret room. Those who were sitting down stood up out of reflex.
They looked at each other, but didn't dare to say anything.
Leng Shaoting knew about the secret room, so they thought that the intruder must be one of their own, but they still hid behind a cabinet just in case.
If the intruder was fine, they would kill him.
After the door of the secret chamber was opened, there was a two-meter-high, half-meter-wide corridor that was about five to six meters long.
It was completely dark in the secret room. Gu Ning took out her night-luminescent pearl, and the dark room lit up at once. After that, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting walked inside.
When they walked inside, Gu Ning used her Jade Eyes to see what was inside. She of course found that the three men were hiding behind the cabinet.
They walked through the secret room and arrived at the secret room.
The three men behind the cabinet saw Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting through the gap. They were shocked by the night-luminescent pearl in Gu Ning's hand.
What was it? It was glowing.
In addition, it was obvious that they weren't one of their own, because they didn't know them. Second Master had said that if he were to send someone over, he would definitely send someone they knew.
"The man behind the cabinet, come out!" Gu Ning looked at the cabinet and said coldly.
Leng Shaoting also sensed that someone was behind the cabinet, so he wasn't surprised when Gu Ning called him.
The three men behind the cabinet, however, were surprised that Gu Ning knew that they were hiding behind the cabinet.
Since they had been discovered, the three of them did not continue to hide and walked out.
However, each of them had a short knife in their hands. They used it to defend themselves when they were moving around here because there were a lot of poisonous snakes and wild beasts here.
There was also food. Over here, they all ate from the ground and went to the sea to get seafood to eat.
"Who are you? What are you doing here? "
A man asked after they walked out.
"Where is He Siyang?" Gu Ning didn't waste time, and asked straightforwardly.
Hearing that, the three men were slightly surprised, but they weren't very surprised. Most people came here for He Siyang.
However, they had no intention to tell her the reason, but pretended to be dumb. "I don't know what you're talking about. What He Siyang? We don't have anyone named He Siyang here."
"Oh, really?" Gu Ning asked with disdain. It was obvious that she didn't believe it.
"I don't know who He Siyang is," the man said in a cold tone. It seemed that he really didn't know who He Siyang was, but it was also a lie. When they heard He Siyang's name, their astonishment had already betrayed them.
"Don't worry, I'll let you know." Gu Ning sneered, then gave Leng Shaoting a glance. Leng Shaoting understood Gu Ning's meaning, so he attacked the three men at once and tried to catch them.
Gu Ning didn't let Leng Shaoting deal with them alone, and attacked one of them at once.
The three men weren't bad at fighting, but they were still too weak compared to Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting, so they were defeated within seconds.
After that, Gu Ning took out a rope and tied the three of them together.
The three men were shocked. To their astonishment, Gu Ning was so good at fighting that they couldn't even fight back.
"Tell me, where did you hide He Siyang?" Gu Ning coldly questioned them.
"We don't know who He Siyang is."
However, the three men still refused to admit it.
"If you don't know who He Siyang is, why did you come to this deserted island?" Gu Ning sneered.
"We know that there is a grave robber on this island, so we came here to look for treasure," the three men said.
"A grave robber? Do you think that I don't know what a grave robber looks like? A grave robber always comes here with many tools, but you only have a knife. Who are you kidding? "Gu Ning sneered.
"…"
The three men didn't know what to say. How does this woman know so much?
"Are you going to tell me now? If you don't say anything nice, then don't blame me for being ruthless and letting you all die here. " Gu Ning's eyes were cold, and she released her power to intimidate them, which made them feel oppressed. They also sensed Gu Ning's killing intent.
"You, you, you … It's illegal to kill people!"
The three men still tried to resist.
