Chapter 862 Photo

The old man's face was a little dignified, and the palms that had begun to wither were quietly stroking his long gray and half-white beard.

Sitting like that, this old man gave people a sense of wisdom. From the occasional flashes of light between his old eyes, it can be seen that he did not become old and dim due to the growth of age, but became more shrewd.

Seeing the old man like this, the young man on the side thought for a while and said, "Uncle, the Li family is too deceitful. If we compromise this time, I am afraid that from now on, there will be only the Li family in Chang'an, and no one will respect him anymore." For the sake of our Liu family's 400-year-old foundation, uncle, we must not compromise this time, at worst we will fight to the death and the net will be broken."

Seeing the old man, the middle-aged man seemed to be a little moved, and then said: "Brother, what Ankang said is right, our Liu family has been afraid of anyone for hundreds of years, killing barbarians, destroying Qing soldiers, even devils We didn't take half a step back when we came, it's just the Li family, so we have nothing to be afraid of."

"alright."

The old man finally reacted at this time, waved his hands to signal the middle-aged man and the young man to calm down the anger in his heart, and said: "The matter of the Li family can be put aside and we can talk about it, but we must not let the traitor of the Liu family go. Thinking about my Liu family for so many years, there has been such a traitor who almost made us invincible, my patriarch is really ashamed of my ancestors."

In the end, the old man's face was a little more sad.

The Liu family puts loyalty first. However, the previous hundreds of years have been peaceful, but this year, a traitor appeared, directly leaking the Liu family's secrets, and the Liu family was almost in a desperate situation.

"Uncle, this traitor can reveal so many secrets of our Liu family, he must be a core member of our family." The young man said with certainty that only the most core members are qualified to have access to the business secrets of the Liu family, and this number, There will never be more than sixteen people.

Hearing what the young man said, Du Cheng, who was eavesdropping, suddenly glanced at the young man.

The appearance of the young man is somewhat similar to that of the middle-aged man, with a square face. Although he is only in his thirties, he already has a bit of majesty. Although he is not the handsome type, this kind of majesty also has a strong influence on women. attraction.

However, compared to the middle-aged man's lips, the young man's lips are slightly thinner, and his eyebrows are also slightly thinner.

What Du Cheng is learning now can be said to be three teachings and nine streams, basically involving all of them. He still knows a little bit about reading.

After glancing at the young man's appearance, Du Cheng turned his gaze to the back of the young man's head, his expression slightly pensive.

"The traitor must be investigated. Within three days, we must find out the traitor and deal with the Li family's affairs."

The old man finally made a decision, but it was already past two o'clock in the morning, and it was obvious that they had been talking here for a long time.

Immediately, the three briefly said something else, and the middle-aged man and the young man left together, leaving only the old man behind.

The old man was not in a hurry to leave. He seemed to be thinking about something. After a long time, he stood up and walked towards the back of the hall.

Obviously, this other courtyard is the residence of the old man.

Du Cheng has no intention of leaving either. He has been looking for the patriarch's residence. Considering the importance of the family tree, it is very likely that he is hiding in the building where the patriarch is. It can be seen from the conversation that this old man should be the head of the Liu family.

Since this is the building of the head of the Liu family, Du Cheng naturally won't waste any more time. If he finds out the family tree of the Liu family from here, he may have to return without any function.

So, after the old man retreated to the back of the hall, Du Cheng walked out from the shadows and appeared in the hall on the second floor of the building like a ghost.

The building has two and a half floors. Du Cheng never thought about it at all, because it is impossible for valuable things to be placed on the first floor. Therefore, the second floor and the upper half floor will be the places he will search for during this trip. main location.

After searching the dozens of houses before, he is already very proficient in this way.

With his ears fully open and his footsteps as light as possible, his body, like a ghost, walked towards the living room behind the hall.

The area of ​​the building is quite large. In addition to the antique hall, there are three rooms at the back, two bedrooms and a study room, which are in the shape of a font. In the middle, there is a small living room.

The old man didn't go back to the room, but went to the study, and the lights in the two bedrooms were turned off at the moment, either the people inside were already asleep, or there was no one there.

Under such circumstances, Du Cheng naturally didn't think too much, and walked directly towards one of the two bedrooms.

The door of the room opened gently, the night was a little dark, but with Du Cheng's eyesight, he could clearly see the situation inside.

This is a vacant room with all the beds and furniture. However, the bed is exposed and there is no bedding on it. It is obvious that no one sleeps there.

Du Cheng quickly looked around again, seeing that there was nothing to search in this bedroom, he left the room without stopping.

Immediately, his goal was to directly lock another room outside.

That room was obviously the old man's bedroom, or the family tree of the Liu family might be hidden in that bedroom.

Du Cheng's movements were very careful, he was worried that there would be someone in the room, if there was, it would be very disadvantageous to his search.

However, after he opened the door very carefully, he found that the entire room was also empty.

Moreover, the decoration inside is also very simple, which made Du Cheng even have an illusion, that is, whether this room is the bedroom of the head of the dignified Liu family.

Du Cheng's suspicion was only for a moment. When he looked at a photo on the wall in front of him, he knew that this room must be the old man's room.

It was a wedding photo. The young man on the photo was very similar to the old man. It should be a photo of the old man when he was young. As for the other photo, it was a very beautiful woman. Judging from the layout of the room, Look, this woman is probably dead.

After Du Cheng glanced at the situation in the room very quickly, he walked in directly, and then began to search.

There weren't many things in the room, and Du Cheng found them quickly. However, Du Cheng had searched all the places he needed to find, but he couldn't find the genealogy.

Finally, Du Cheng's gaze directly locked on a safe in the corner of the room.

This is a safe with a mechanical password. At the same time, fingerprint authentication and a key are required to open it. It is a safe with very strong confidentiality. As long as there is any error in these three links, the safe will sound an alarm. Alert the owner of the safe.

For others, seeing this kind of safe may only be a sigh of relief, but Du Cheng is different, he is at least 50% sure that this safe can be opened.

At the first moment, Du Cheng walked directly towards the safe, and stretched out his hand towards the mechanical switch.

The fingerprint authentication system is useful to others, but it is of no use to Du Cheng. With Xiner around, Du Cheng can simulate any fingerprint.

The only troublesome thing is the mechanical code and key.

Compared with electronic passwords, mechanical passwords are still very reliable. Electronic passwords can be cracked with a password cracker, but mechanical passwords can only be opened unless they are destroyed.

Du Cheng was not in a hurry to open it, because at this moment, Xiner's holographic virtual figure suddenly appeared beside him, and then, a faint red light burst out from Xiner's eyes, and It landed on the ten password keys.

Under the irradiation of the red light, fingerprints gradually appeared on five buttons on the password button, among which there were obviously more fingerprints on one button than the other four.

Just looking at this scene, Du Cheng knew the dense combination of numbers.

This lockbox is a six-digit code, and one of them is repeated.

"Xin'er, we only have three chances, can you make it out?"

Du Cheng secretly asked Xiner next to him. With this combination, Xiner's simulation ability is undoubtedly much stronger than his.

Xiner paused for nearly a second, and then replied: "It is possible to combine, but the success rate will not exceed 50%. Du Cheng, are you sure you want to try?"

Du Cheng didn't hesitate. He wasn't that hesitant when it came to this kind of thing, so he said directly: "Try, if you fail, it's a big deal and come back later."

Xin'er's speed was very fast, Du Cheng's voice fell, and she had assembled three sets of codes and appeared in front of Du Cheng's eyes.

Du Cheng stretched out his other hand directly, and began to enter the password on the button.

A slight sound of keys was heard in the quiet room, and after the first set of passwords were entered, the safe did not respond at all.

The same is true for the second set of passwords, and Du Cheng only has one last chance left.

Du Cheng remained the same, without any hesitation, he stretched out his hand and began to enter the third password.

--Ding

There was a light sound, and at the same time as the third password was entered, there was a mechanical sound in the safe, but the safe did not open because of this. Du Cheng still needs to do the last step to open the safe, which is to use a key.

Of course, it is impossible for Du Cheng to have the key to the safe, but with Du Cheng's current lock-picking technology, the third checkpoint is not at all difficult at all.

He took out a silver needle from his waist, forcibly folded it into a shape with his hands, and opened the door of the safe very dexterously.

If it was an ordinary person, seeing the things in this safe, he would definitely be stunned over there.

Money, a lot of money, and all kinds of diamond jewelry, etc., and even a few checks that have been written for the amount, but Du Cheng is disappointed. These things are nothing in his eyes. What is needed is not here.

"Impossible, the patriarch of a dignified family, how could there be these things in his safe?"

Du Cheng said with obvious disbelief in his heart, ordinary thieves and thieves would naturally not suspect anything when they saw these things, but he, Du Cheng, was different.

It looks very expensive inside, but it is all related to money. Apart from money, there is nothing important at all, such as some confidential things of the Liu family, or various contracts that should appear in it, etc. Waiting for something, none of them.

"Xin'er, help me simulate a three-dimensional map of this building."

Immediately, Du Cheng gave instructions to Xin'er.

Since there is nothing in the safe, there is only one possibility. There must be a dark room in this building.

"OK."

Xin'er responded, and then very quickly presented the three-dimensional graphics of the entire building in front of Du Cheng's eyes.

However, Xiner is not omnipotent, she can only simulate from Du Cheng's perspective, and he cannot simulate places that he has not been to.

Fortunately, these are enough for Du Cheng. Although he didn't go to the study, Du Cheng, relying on his own sense of space and Xin Er's simulation, he is almost sure that there is a gap between this bedroom and the study next to it. , there must be a dark room.

However, just when Du Cheng was going to look for the switch of the dark room, there was a sound of opening the door, it should be that the old man left the study.

Under such circumstances, it was naturally impossible for Du Cheng to search any further. In a flash, he opened the window and quickly climbed out, but he did not leave immediately, or the old man returned to the room, It may not be possible to open the dark room, so he doesn't need to look for it.

Du Cheng just climbed out of the window, and the old man pushed the door and walked in.

The old man first hung his coat casually on the hanger beside him, then he sat down directly beside the bed, and reached out his hand to take out a photo from the cabinet next to the bed.

Although the photo is well preserved, it has some yellowing, obviously it is some years old.

The old man just looked at the photo quietly, with a gloomy look on his face.

Du Cheng was just outside the window beside the bed. From the window, he could clearly see the photo in the old man's hand, but when his eyes fell on the photo, he was completely stunned.
