Chapter 473: Chapter 473: Smashing the Window Glass Chapter 473: Chapter 473: Smashing the Window Glass Then the young man started running towards the valley briskly.
Following his figure, one could see the valley clearly this time.
It resembled a small village.
The valley was quite large, with several wooden buildings situated in its center.
The buildings were two stories high, the bottom floor was empty.
They were similar to the grain silos in the rural areas of the North.
Then people could be seen walking back and forth there.
Soon, the figure of the young man vanished.
About five minutes later, the young man returned to the entrance of the valley.
He glanced at Uncle Gu, “Our elder said this is the sacred land of the Daxi Clan, and no one is allowed to enter. The cars and people you are looking for are not here with us. You can report to the authorities, but please do not disturb the peace of the sacred land.”
Is this a refusal of entry?
But it’s unacceptable not to enter, isn’t it? How can the three vehicles of gemstones and the missing people be taken out?
And how could this elder knowingly break the law?
Anger was evident between Qiaoqiao’s brows.
But at this moment, it wasn’t yet time to use force against these people.
Gu Qiaoqiao had been standing next to Qin Yize.
Her eyes shifted, and she quietly moved behind Qin Yize.
Qin Yize had been silent all along.
Because it wasn’t time for him to speak yet.
His gaze had always been faintly on Qiaoqiao.
He then noticed that she had quietly moved behind him.
It was clearly not out of fear.
What was Qiaoqiao planning to do?
After a moment’s thought, Qin Yize subtly shifted his body to completely block the young men’s line of sight.
Meanwhile, Uncle Gu and Zhang Yi were conversing with the young men.
Gu Qiaoqiao stood behind him, completely out of sight.
At this moment, Qin Yize’s stance was particularly upright; his tall figure shielded Qiaoqiao securely, but he did not turn to look at her.
Gu Qiaoqiao hadn’t expected Qin Yize to notice her subtle movements.
But that was even better.
With his cooperation, Gu Qiaoqiao estimated the distance to the closest wooden building in the valley.
She then quietly took out the slingshot gun from her bag.
She should be able to hit the glass window of the wooden building from this distance.
Gu Qiaoqiao thought to herself, those three vehicles are here, laden with gemstones of huge value, and six people are also here. The elder must not want to leave the sacred land.
If something went wrong, he might have trouble explaining it to the person behind him.
However, Qiaoqiao didn’t quite understand, if Ning Wanru was indeed the one behind this, then Ning Wanru was too capable for having connections with this elder.
But these were just their private speculations at present.
Without confirmation, everything remained an unknown.
Gu Qiaoqiao quietly raised her hand.
With a thought, she activated the slingshot gun’s trigger.
A stone bullet shot out swiftly.
Although they were somewhat far from the wooden building, the sound of shattering glass could still be heard in the quiet woods.
Then, as the two young men turned their heads back to look at the valley, Gu Qiaoqiao fired three more shots, shattering the glass of that window.
The successive breaking sounds left the two young men somewhat puzzled.
After exchanging glances, the shorter young man said to his companion, “Stay here and keep watch, I’ll go back and check…”
Saying this, he hurriedly ran into the valley.
Qin Yize’s lips curled slightly, and without making a sound, he stretched out his hand and accurately grasped Gu Qiaoqiao’s hand holding the slingshot gun.
