After calming down his emotions and waiting for Chu Lingyue to close the door of Miaochun Hall, Liu Qinian sat with him grinding medicine and explained his thoughts.

"Ah Yue, I have decided. From today on, I will live in the hospital and pay the shopkeeper some accommodation fees every month. On the one hand, I don't have to travel back and forth, and on the other hand, I can accept patients at any time."

Chu Lingyue also thought about her fate more than once.

The home over at Carrot Alley must not be lived in anymore. After all, no one can guarantee whether something bad will happen again in the future.

But living in a medical clinic meant that Liu Qinian lost his private life and was firmly bound to the medical clinic.

When he brought her out of Carrot Alley, Chu Lingyue didn't come here for free long-term work.

"The spare rooms in the medical center were originally prepared for us. What are we talking about for money? You can just live here. When you save enough money, you can go out and rent a room."

While talking, she observed Liu Qinian's embarrassed expression, and simply said: "My house is not small, and I don't live there all the time, but it hasn't been tidied up yet. When it is done in a while, you can come with me.

It’s okay to stay.”

"This...how can this be so embarrassing..." Liu Qinian's face turned red and he did not dare to look at the person in front of him.

"That `s a deal."

After laughing, Chu Lingyue turned her eyes, looked sideways at the cluster of dark colors outside the window, and lowered the corners of her lips.

Who is monitoring this place?

The next day, Chu Lingyue went to the shop to discuss matters with her confidants as usual, and then revealed the weirdness of last night. Someone came back with news that a mysterious middle-aged man was in the house she bought under the name "Chu April".

Wandering outside.

Guessing that it was Xu Changguan, Chu Lingyue changed into the identity of Chu Yiyue and went there.

When they arrived, Xu Changguan was still hesitant nearby.

"Uncle Xu? Why are you here?"

The familiar voice made Xu Changguan turn around for a second, but soon, he subconsciously suppressed his crude fake beard, his eyes wandered, and he looked very nervous.

Realizing that something big had happened, Chu Lingyue welcomed him in with a smile.

The potted plants in the room are fresh, there is no dust on the table, the bed is neat but has slight wrinkles, and the cushions on the stools also have hair balls.

Seeing this scene, Xu Changguan couldn't help but hand over to Chu Lingyue: "I admire Miss April's careful behavior."

Knowing that her identity was suspected, Chu Lingyue didn't say much, she just smiled at him and said, "It's only been done a while ago. By the way, what danger has the director encountered?"

"That's right." Xu Changguan replied: "Last night, someone quietly entered my room. If it weren't for the little black ointment you gave me to save my life, I would not be alive now."

"Have you seen that person's true face clearly?" Chu Lingyue was a little nervous.

The Empress Dowager Tang has been very quiet recently, and there has never been any suspicious news in the palace. If it was really her people who had killed her, it would be difficult to seize the evidence.

Shaking his head, Xu Changguan quickly added, "That person deliberately did not let me live. If I were still alive, they would definitely become suspicious, and they might even make a bigger plot and involve innocent people. I have already asked someone to release me.

The news of the "death" that has been pursued for many years has been suppressed for the time being. As for the body, I have also found a replacement, which is why it appears at your doorstep in such a clumsy way today..."

"The commander has done a great job, where do you plan to take refuge next?"

"To be honest, I have never received any news from him since he entered Beijing. I am very worried about whether there will be any problems with him. But now I want to avoid the limelight and plan to go to Saizhou for a while... Today

I came here hoping that Miss April can help me find him."

After saying that, Xu Changguan sighed, took out a box from his arms and handed it to Chu Lingyue: "This is the key to open the Secret Pavilion and my token. If necessary, take these two things and go to Yanxia, ​​Pingyangfang, west of the city.

At the ninth house in the alley, go to the second-in-command of the Tiansi Bureau, he will understand."

"Don't worry, Commander, I will find a way to convey it to you as soon as I have the news about Old Man Xianwu. If you can come here to explain these things to me, I must have already planned things on the road. I can't help you much.

You can wear something like this, put it transparently on your face, and put it under your red clothes. From now on, you can look like anything you want, and no one will notice."

Handing the bottle containing the mother and larvae of the Disguise Gu to Xu Changguan, waiting for the other party to write down the address of the void and sending it away, Chu Lingyue set off immediately.

Changlong Street, Wu’s Mutton Restaurant.

Before she even entered the door, the smell of mutton hit her face and made her breathless.

This store is located on the most luxurious street in Los Angeles, and the flow of people is unusually large.

When the waiter came to the store, Chu Lingyue followed what Xu Changguan said and said: "I reserved the Tianzi No. 18 private room on the 18th of last month. I just booked it today. Let's try a stack of lamb tripe first."

Understanding the secret code, the waiter immediately welcomed her to a room upstairs.

At first glance, the room looked no different from ordinary ones, but as the waiter pushed open the screen hanging on the wall, a long staircase appeared.

"Girl, just walk along here and you'll reach the end."

Watching Chu Lingyue go in, the waiter closed the screen again. The fluorescent stones inlaid on the wall automatically glowed in the darkness, illuminating the entire passage clearly.

At the end was a door. Chu Lingyue pushed it gently, and the dazzling sunlight caught her off guard.

After taking a closer look, she realized that she was actually in a large garden.

Walking along the path, Chu Lingyue came out of the garden and soon saw that the person on the pavilion in the middle of the lake was exactly what she was looking for!

Wuwu was playing chess with a young man, while the other one was lying on the table looking at him in bewilderment.

When they noticed someone coming, the two young men looked over at the same time. The one watching chess looked wary: "Who are you?"

Seeing that Xianwu paused his movements due to his arrival but did not raise his eyes, Chu Lingyue felt something was wrong and immediately awakened the sleeping Gus in Xianwu's body through the King of Gus.

Because of the specialness of the Gu King, Xianwu quickly recognized that the person over there was the person who saved him in the bamboo forest, so he easily got a connection with him and immediately informed him of the situation on his side.

"What did you just say? I didn't hear clearly." Chu Lingyue answered the two people, taking the opportunity to sort out the clues given by the void.

It turns out that this mutton restaurant is the store of his old friend, but when he came this time, not only did he not find the whereabouts of his old friend, but he also fell into the hands of this group of mysterious people who took over the store. His words and deeds were monitored by these two people around him, which made him...

I can only stay here quietly and look for the right opportunity to escape.

"Who are you?" The chess player stood up. His tall and straight posture coupled with his accent made him look less and less like a Central Plains person.

Finally, Chu Lingyue found some evidence from the cluster of wolf tails on his waist.

People from the Central Plains don’t have the habit of wearing this thing...

"Tell him that you are from the Adhuodu family and came to me to borrow translated ancient books."

Chu Lingyue suddenly heard Xu Wu say this through King Gu, and Chu Lingyue did not hesitate: "I am from the Adhuodu family, and I came to him to borrow the translated ancient books."

When the two people heard this, their attitudes immediately softened, and the chess player also stood up: "Go get it, don't delay Miss Ya's business."

The extent of their supervision of nothingness was something Chu Lingyue never expected.

Even when she went to get something, the two of them followed her closely.

So far, she has not exchanged a single word with nothingness.

But when she picked up the ancient book, she touched a piece of paper under the ancient book.

After putting it into the soul room with an expressionless expression, the two men took the ancient book and inspected it personally.

Make sure you didn't take anything with you before handing it back.

"When will you come back? I still have a lot of things to do." asked Xuwu.

Realizing that the other party wanted to do it again, Chu Lingyue thought for a while and replied: "Miss Ya, I will give it to you when you finish it. Why are you urging me?"

In my heart I responded: "I will come back as soon as possible."

After receiving the other party's approval, Chu Lingyue hurriedly left.

After leaving the mutton restaurant, she walked back around where she had just been.

There is only one mansion nearby that can be used as a "secret base". The plaque hanging on the door of the house is engraved with "Fan Mansion".

Where is this Fan Mansion?

Leaving this confusion to his confidants for verification, Chu Lingyue opened the empty ball of paper and saw that it was a piece of blueprint, so she went to Zhang Jianzi's house by accident.

After confirming that the other party had really moved away, she went straight to Changyanzhai.

"This is the blueprint of a key! Although the shape is very strange, it is still easy to make."

Holding the blueprint in hand, Lu Chenyu said proudly and walked to the operating table.

Seeing her starting the operation immediately, Chu Lingyue couldn't help but be curious: "You little guy loves money so much, why don't you ask me for payment?"

"I'm a rich girl now, so I don't like the remuneration."

Lu Chenyu smiled and suddenly remembered something. He quickly took out the small box and handed it to her: "This is the small part you asked me to restore last time. I did it three times before restoring it exactly the same. Is it awesome?"

"Hey, it's not you who is the rumored spy, right?" Chu Lingyue, who cooperated with her bragging, was still smiling one second, but her smile froze the next second.

She had seen the same part in He Zhiqing's notebook.

"I'll leave the key to you. I have to take one step ahead."

Lu Chenyu was used to her leaving at will, so he didn't stop her.

On the other hand, Chu Lingyue, who had just left the gate of Changyanzhai, tripped in less than three seconds.

A woman fell to the ground and couldn't get up for a long time, and no one came to help her.

"Girl, where did you fall? I'll help you sit over there first..."

Before she finished speaking, she hesitated.

Isn’t this Ji Beiye’s sweetheart?

Are these people in the black market desperate for their lives? Do they even dare to ignore her?

"What a good boy. I'm picking this thing out, you try and see if you can pick it off."

Looking along her hand, the corners of Chu Lingyue's mouth twitched slightly.

It turns out that this girl is attracted by the piece of gold inlaid between the bluestones...

Suddenly, she was stunned.
Chapter completed!
