C59

This official's position was not low, and he was classified as a high ranking official in the Imperial City. To be able to maintain his position and have the life he had today, he was naturally required to receive gifts.

However, he had to record down these accounts that mutually coveted each other. Possessing such an account actually left a way out for himself.

Some of the corrupt officials in the imperial city had been removed, and the smaller bureaucrats of the other cities had lost their backers. Naturally, this had to be restrained.

Since this person was a greedy official, his cowardly nature could not be changed! Thus, the mechanism of this secret room must be the closest to him. Only then would he feel at ease.

Arriving at the desk, Chen Feng moved his chair and knocked on the floor. Since the secret chamber's mechanism had been built here, it must be the safest place!

However, to Chen Feng's disappointment, he did not find the hidden compartment. This old brat was still being very cautious! After encountering such difficulties, Chen Feng did not dare to become depressed.

Only the difficulty would pique his interest, and he would once again carefully observe the layout of the study. The antique furnishings here were a bit messy. If there were any antiques here, it would be better to arrange them neatly in order. Only then would they be considered beautiful enough.

Even though the antique furniture looked messy at first glance, as long as one looked carefully, one could tell that there was something fishy about it.

This is a trap array, Chen Feng sneered. However, if the antiques were not placed in a designated pattern, it would be impossible to know what exactly this formation was hiding.

Sitting on the chair, Chen Feng quietly observed the arrangement of the shareholders not far away. He wanted to calculate a new arrangement from this messy yet orderly arrangement of antiques.

It was extremely difficult to calculate like that. Furthermore, the formation even needed to lay out some false images to guide you. If you were to put them out of the way and trigger the mechanisms, you would never be able to unravel the secrets within.

Although ordinary people could not compare with spirit cultivators, the wisdom of humans could not be underestimated!

Chen Feng believed that this bureaucrat could not form such a formation, and believed that there was definitely an expert behind the scenes.

However, from the arrangement of this expert, Chen Feng felt that he had the methods of a woman!

Not too long after, Chen Feng broke the formation. There were eighteen illusions, and four unfathomable gaps.

However, based on his previous calculations, Chen Feng had to make up the gap.

Chen Feng rearranged the arrangement of the antiques. Although he was very confident in himself, he was also worried that he would make a mistake.

However, with the brain cell regeneration ability, Chen Feng's thinking was indeed extraordinary!

He stepped forward and checked carefully. There was no hidden compartment here. This was not an empty stone board. Chen Feng once again fell into deep thought. Just where did this problem come from?

Suddenly, Chen Feng was brought to the floor. There were three shallow footprints on the chair.

It looked like these three marks were the most important points.

After careful observation, he found out that the footprints needed to be placed on the designated chair. This chair was the same one that was placed in front of the desk.

However, what made Chen Feng puzzled was that this chair had four legs, but there were only three marks on the floor. If one of the legs was removed, this chair would no longer be usable next time.

He didn't believe that the secret chamber could only be opened once.

Chen Feng didn't dare to put his chair up like that. If he activated some other mechanism, he would be exposed too.

This matter was not as easy to deal with as he had imagined!

If you put something on the foot of a chair, the height would be different.

Chen Feng examined it for a while, and similarly, he did not discover that any chair legs were loose, as he was unable to remove all four of them.

At this moment, Chen Feng discovered a spot with some blurry grease. After which, there were traces of grease on the legs of the chair.

If he hadn't observed carefully, he wouldn't have been able to find this tiny problem.

Chen Feng believed that there must be oil in the study.

He looked around and saw two bottles of ink on the desk.

He walked up and opened the lid. Sure enough, there was an empty inkstone.

There was nothing on the inkstone, but he found grease on the inkstone with his finger. The bottom of this inkstone was formed by solidifying it with special grease.

He placed the foot of the chair in the middle of the inkstone and pressed it lightly. With this special grease, no marks would appear on the floor and it would automatically scatter. If it wasn't for Chen Feng carefully observing, he wouldn't have been able to notice such details.

Chen Feng had succeeded. At the place where the chair had been, a brick had actually loosened.

Unfortunately, this was not a secret compartment. It was just that a brick had been loosened!

Holding a stone tablet, Chen Feng knew that there must be a mechanism here. This mechanism was very complicated. Even with the cells in his brain active, he still could not handle it.

If it had been anyone else, they wouldn't have been able to find the account book. It was no wonder that the greedy officials in the Imperial City had been able to stay victorious for so long. The reason for this was because the evidence had been concealed extremely well.

Chen Feng was now even more certain that there was an expert backing these corrupt officials. Although he had only been with this bureaucrat for a short period of time, there were many things that could be done. He did not believe that this bureaucrat would be so cautious. He did not believe that he had such a brain.

At this moment, Chen Feng knew that it would not be so easy to overthrow these bureaucrats. Behind them, there was an extremely intelligent looking man in command.

After obtaining the account book, Chen Feng would definitely not act rashly. He would have to suffer Miss He's grievances for a few more days. This was also something that he had no other choice. He had to find the real mastermind behind the scenes and get rid of him. Only then would he be able to get rid of the majority of the corrupt officials and kill the monkey.

She believed that the commoners would have a better life ahead of them, and Miss He was truly safe. Even if the bureaucrats were eliminated this time, there would definitely be a lot of people who would pay attention to Miss He's natural beauty.

The He family's power wouldn't be able to protect such an unparalleled beauty.

Chen Feng was not only doing this to eliminate evil and protect the dao, but he was also training and tempering himself. Only by growing up in adversity could he truly train.

Although this time was not the cultivation of realm and strength, wisdom was still an indispensable weapon for humans. The strength of wisdom was self-evident!

This stone tablet must be the key to the secret chamber. Chen Feng was currently looking everywhere to find a place to place this stone tablet.

Come, come, the size of the stone slab and the size of the chair were the right size. However, there was no groove for it.

The chair was still in the place where the mark had been. Observing the chair, he turned the seat upside down. The groove had been completely revealed.

Putting the stone slab into the groove, the stone slab under the chair began to move to the side. As he opened up a stone tablet, he saw that there was actually another stone tablet within.

He moved the chair again and opened up the second stone board. He moved again and opened a third stone tablet.

Chen Feng guessed one thing wrong. There was no secret chamber here and only this secret compartment was used to store the accounts. He turned the chair around again, and a stone slab rose up from the tunnel.

There were a few books on the stone slab. Chen Feng flipped through them and confirmed that there were no mistakes. He took out a pen and paper that he had prepared beforehand and quickly copied them down.

Now that he was a cultivator, his speed was naturally incomparable to ordinary people. After copying it down, he put the account book back to its original place and started the switch.

He could arrange everything according to its original position, including the antiques. With his memory, he could do that.

He didn't take the account book because he didn't want to alert the enemy. Furthermore, now that he had discovered the real mastermind behind the plot, it would naturally take some time to uncover it.

If this bureaucrat found out that the account book had been stolen, the matter would naturally be exposed. It would be extremely difficult to find the real mastermind!

At this time, Chen Feng secretly rejoiced that he had brought along some pen and paper. If he was in a hurry, how would he be able to find a pen and paper?

Furthermore, the paper and brush here were naturally unusable. If one was a bit more careful, they would definitely discover the problem.

Chen Feng was also very meticulous when it came to his actions, almost to the point of appearing and disappearing out of thin air.

He had originally planned to expose this crime to the public the next day when Miss He came, and make it so that he would stir up trouble at the emperor's place. But now, he had to make Miss He endure for a few more days!
