Then she put her cloth bag on her back, took some money, and quietly set out from the back door. She asked Li Qing to secretly find him a map a few days ago.
After all, she was a person who had traveled through modern times, so she still didn't know much about ancient places. It took her probably a few days to figure out the nearby mountains, and she set off after everything was ready.
She did not ride a horse but walked on foot. Riding a horse would be too ostentatious. After all, she did not want anyone to know, otherwise her safety would not be guaranteed, because some of Feng Minyi's political opponents in the court would definitely send people to deal with her.
She left the city just before dawn and walked toward the mountainous area to the north of the city. She stopped and walked along the way, asking questions as she walked.
"Auntie, please tell me, does Qingyuan Village go all the way north along this road?"
"Well, yes, the girl is going to visit relatives."
"Yes, I'm going to pick up my mother."
Wang Yiyao never stopped. She kept walking and just wanted to see Feng Minyi as soon as possible. When it got dark, she really couldn't walk. There happened to be an inn not far away in this sparse village.
Fortunately, there is an inn in this place, otherwise I might have to sleep in the wild.
The name of this inn is very strange, it's called "Heiyun Inn"
Seeing this name, Wang Yiyao felt uneasy, but there was no other way. This family here was better than sleeping in the wild.
"Girl, come inside and invite me."
Seeing a young and pretty girl coming in, the waiter's face became happy and he winked at the landlady.
Wang Yiyao, who was sitting on the seat, noticed all this. She knew that there was definitely something wrong with this store, so she was already on guard.
"Girl, do you want to stay in a hotel or have a meal?"
"I have to stay in a hotel and eat at the same time. Do you have some noodles? Give me a bowl to try."
"Okay, the noodles will be here soon. After dinner, I will show you the room. You drink tea first, and I will make noodles for you."
When the waiter walked past the front counter, he smiled at the landlady. Although Wang Yiyao was drinking tea, her eyes were secretly observing everything they did.
When she picked up the tea cup, she smelled it first. There were only a few kinds of poisons and intoxicants in ancient times. Wang Yiyao had traveled through time and space and understood them all.
There was nothing wrong with the tea, so it seemed like it was noodles. After a while, a large bowl of noodles was served, "Girl, come and try our specialty, the spicy noodles."
I have to say that this noodle looks really fragrant, but when Wang Yiyao picked it up and was about to eat it, he smelled the drug ingredients in it. Although they used a lot of spices to cover up the smell, they couldn't hide it from Wang Yiyao at all.
After all, she is a medical student, so this little trick cannot be hidden from her.
"Xiao Er, I want to go for a while first, but I don't know..."
"Okay, I'll take you to the backyard."
Wang Yiyao came to the backyard and took a look. There were many stables, but there were no horses. There was something wrong with this store.
Entering the latrine, Wang Yiyao opened her medical kit system in the dark and took out a pill from it. This pill was a detoxification pill, so even if she took the bowl of noodles, the drug would not have any effect.
When Wang Yiyao came back from the backyard, she ate heartily. She walked all day and didn't even eat properly. She just ate a few snacks to cushion her stomach on the way.
After eating the noodles, Wang Yiyao pretended to be a little sleepy and said, "Waiter, please take me to see the room quickly. I'm so sleepy."
"Okay, come with me."
The waiter took her upstairs to the third room on the left. This room was very simply furnished. Wang Yiyao figured that the time for the medicine to take effect was coming soon, so she lay down on the bed.
"Okay, just take this room. I'm so sleepy. Please close the door for me."
"Okay. Sleep well."
The waiter hurried downstairs and called the landlady up, "The landlady has fainted, you can take action."
"This is her baggage. The younger one saw that there was a lot of money in it, but the rest couldn't figure out what it was. This girl is probably a charlatan, but she didn't expect to fall into our hands."
"No, she looks pretty good, but she is a little thinner. Let me search her clothes."
Wang Yiyao didn't have anything in her clothes. The most precious thing to her was the map. When she was facing the situation just now, she put the map in her socks, so it was very safe.
"Okay, it's nothing. Just go and lock her in the stable with the two girls."
The waiter carried her to the stables in the backyard. Wang Yiyao understood now that these stables were used to imprison people.
Wang Yiyao pretended to be confused for a while before tentatively opening her eyes. In front of her were several girls, huddled together and looking at her.
Although it was dark night, under the moonlight, their eyes looked at Wang Yiyao with fear and sympathy.
There were two little girls among them. They were so thin that they had no bones left and their faces were dirty. When they saw Wang Yiyao waking up, they took the initiative to give her a piece of dried and moldy steamed buns.
"Sister, here it is."
Wang Yiyao took the steamed bun and felt like vomiting. How could she eat such moldy steamed bun? In modern times, even dogs eat it.
She walked up to the girls and helped them tidy up their hair, "What are your names, and why are you locked up here?"
"My name is Xiaoqing and my name is March. We were both captured by the people here. They are very bad. They always make us do a lot of work and don't give us food."
This black-hearted store owner is really hateful. Wang Yiyao really wants to light a fire for them, but she can't. She is alone now. If there are many of them, she is no match. She can only observe slowly.
Maybe we can also find out some news about Feng Minyi.
The next day, at dawn, the landlady came to bring them breakfast. She said that the breakfast was actually just porridge like water, with not a few grains of rice in sight.
"Drink quickly. After you drink it, go to the kitchen and help me. Yesterday's bowls are piled up."
"Just let us drink this gruel. How can we work if we don't have enough to eat?"
"Hey, you damn girl, you're still stubborn with me. It would be nice if I could give you food to eat. Be careful, I'll beat you to death with a whip, and then throw you into the mountains to feed the wild beasts."
Wang Yiyao wanted to say something else, but when she found Xiaoqing and Sanyue, they tugged at her clothes and shook their heads at her.
"Okay, sister knows."
They were afraid that Wang Yiyao would be beaten, "Sister, the boss's whip is very powerful. She beats people very hard. Look at us."
Wang Yiyao opened the clothes of the two little girls and saw dense wounds on their bodies, some of which were scabbed, and some of which looked like fresh wounds.
