Yueyao put the scroll on the table and looked at it carefully. She had looked at this painting carefully that day, and there was nothing special about it. However, the tree hole was clearly drawn on it.
and the cave in the middle of the mountain. Thinking about it, these two places should be the entrances to the ancient tombs.
The cave in the middle of the mountain has already entered the scope of Fengtian Sect, so she will not enter the ancient tomb from the cave in the middle of the mountain. She only has one route now, and that is the tomb passage in the tree cave.
So, while Alan's father was away, she dug out a baggage from the bottom of the box, opened it and saw that it was a set of short knives and tools for easy carrying.
She pulled out the dagger and looked at it. She smiled slightly and inserted the dagger into her boots and put it away. Then she put the other things in the closet and took them with her when she planned to take action.
"Master." At this time, someone shouted softly outside the door.
"Come in." Yue Yao sat back on the couch and said.
A woman in black clothes walked in and said: "Master, Boss Ji has not come out since he entered an inn. His subordinates were just worried that he would leave, so they waited outside for an hour. Just now, they asked Jane
Only if I continue to guard you will my subordinates dare to come back and report the news."
"Well, I understand. Didn't he see anyone? Did he see A-Lan?" Yueyao asked.
"Master, Boss Ji returned to the inn alone, and no one went in to look for him afterwards," said the woman in black.
"You continue to guard the inn and come back to report if he takes action." Yue Yao said.
"Yes." The man in black disappeared in a flash.
Boss Ji didn't even leave the house. Could it be that he really had no contact with A-Lan? However, what happened was such a coincidence. After Boss Ji paid the deposit, something happened in the tea garden. She didn't believe it.
Boss Ji has no relationship with A-Lan, so she must find someone to keep an eye on him until he leaves the capital.
After Yueyao and A-Lan's father had dinner, they said, "Yuanjun, I don't know how long it will take before I go to the study. You should rest first."
"Going to the study at this hour? Haven't the matters in the tea garden been settled? It's better not to work so hard and rest early." A-Lan's father asked.
"We lost a lot of money on the tea garden, and we still have to find a way to get the money back, otherwise, the clan leader will still look down on us." Yueyao sighed and said.
"Huh, he has always looked down on me. I've known it for a long time. It was true that I failed to live up to expectations in the past, but it can't be all my fault." A-Lan's father said.
Yueyao glanced at A-Lan's father and said, "You don't have to be like him. The entire Leng family will be yours in the future."
"Yao'er, what do you mean?" Alan's father asked in surprise.
A-Lan's father was frightened by Yueyao's words. The Leng family was a big family. Although his father was not the patriarch, he was the head of the Leng family. Later, the head of the Leng family was handed over to A-Lan. After A-Lan disappeared, the patriarch just
The business was handed over to him. The family leader's seal was not handed over to him, so he believed that the patriarch was targeting him.
After hearing what Yue Yao said, he knew that Yue Yao would find a way to get the clan leader to hand over the seal to him. In fact, he did not have such ambitions before. But Yue Yao was right. If the old man gave him a chance to practice, he would
It may not work.
"That's what you think. The Leng family will definitely be yours in the future." Yue Yao said with a smile.
Yueyao was so happy that she went back to the house alone, and Yueyao went to the study.
After Yueyao entered the study, she was still studying the map, but the map really only told her where the entrance was. If the map wasn't still useful, she really wanted to burn it.
Early the next morning, Yueyao found herself sleeping in the study. After returning to her room, she discovered that A-Lan's father had already gotten up.
Yueyao was a little curious, so she asked her servant where the master had been.
"Back to Madam, the master has gone to the tea house." the servant said.
"Master, did you go to the tea house so early?" Yueyao was a little surprised.
You must know that Alan's father was not willing to work at all before and knew nothing about business. Why is he so diligent all of a sudden?
"I know." Yueyao said.
"Madam, the food is ready. Do you want to freshen up first and then eat?" Yueyao's personal maid said.
"That's fine." Yueyao said.
After Yue Yao freshened up, she quickly had a meal, then returned to the inner room and fell asleep again. Yue Yao's personal maid had already left, because Yue Yao didn't like someone to serve her personally, so her personal maid
She rarely serves her. Moreover, this is the only maid around Yueyao.
Everyone in the house thought that Yue Yao was worried about the lecherous master, so she only had one maid with her and refused to let her get close to her. In fact, Yue Yao was really not used to it.
After Yueyao woke up, someone asked to see her again.
"Master, Boss Ji has left." It turned out to be the man in black from yesterday.
"Left? Going outside the city?" Yueyao asked.
"Boss Ji got on the carriage and left the city directly," the man in black said.
"There are no servants around him?" Yue Yao asked.
Yueyao is becoming more and more suspicious of Boss Ji. As a boss, he comes to do business without even a servant?
"Back to the master, he is the only one. Moreover, the carriage is also rented." The man in black said.
Yueyao knew in her heart that a business boss would not always have servants around him, but the fact that Boss Ji could afford such a deposit showed that he was not an ordinary boss. Therefore, it made no sense to have no servants around him.
"Are all carriages rented?" Yue Yao asked in surprise.
"Yes, Master, the carriage is provided by the inn, and our people asked the innkeeper. It is true that Boss Ji came alone, without anyone around him. In the past few days, except for us following him, no one has gone to look for him.
Pass him." The man in black said.
"I know, you go down first." Yueyao waved her hand and asked the man in black to go down first.
She originally planned to go to the grave and leave the Leng Mansion early, but why did something happen at this time? The grudge between Boss Ji and the Leng Mansion should not be very deep, otherwise it would not be just a matter of cheating money. To the Leng Mansion, these money are of no use at all.
Nothing. It's just that making trouble at this time made her a little overwhelmed. She didn't know what would happen next, but she just hoped that it wouldn't delay her actions tonight.
Boss Ji left alone, and there were no important salutes on the carriage. It was impossible for him to leave with so much tea by himself. How to transport such a large batch of goods?
So, was Boss Ji responsible for what happened in the tea garden?
When A-Lan's father came back for dinner in the evening, he saw that Yueyao had been absent-minded all day.
He picked up a piece of Yueyao's favorite dish and said, "Why are you suddenly absent-minded?"
"Boss Ji is gone." Yueyao said.
"What, why did he leave? Did he find something?" Alan's father asked.
"If there was any discovery, how could he be allowed to leave like this? Our people found that he left the capital alone, and he didn't even have any servants," Yue Yao said.
"So he didn't do what happened in the tea garden? Otherwise, how would he deal with so many goods?" said A-Lan's father.
"He can leave, but the goods don't need to leave. Even if he trades with us, we can still send the goods back to him. Just because he left, it doesn't mean that the goods were not made in partnership between him and A-Lan," Yueyao said.
She never believed that Boss Ji and A-Lan had nothing to do with each other. After all, it was too much of a coincidence.
"In other words, he can transport such a large amount of goods through others?" Alan's father said.
"Yes, in fact, our tea garden business has regular customers. Boss Ji is the first customer to cooperate with us, but how can he be willing to pay such a large deposit? How can he trust us so much?" Yueyao said.
.
"I understand, so what you are saying is that Boss Ji and A-Lan are working together to plot against us?" said A-Lan's father.
"We can't just let this matter go. I'll let people continue with the tea." Yue Yao said.
"Yao'er, since I took over the business, you have been worrying a lot. Without you, I would be in a complete mess." A-Lan's father said with emotion.
"The master is actually no worse than anyone else, it's just that at that time he treated you... I guess it was because he felt sorry for you," Yue Yao said.
Yueyao deliberately provoked A-Lan's father. In fact, she wanted to tell A-Lan's father that the old man had raised him to waste.
At this time, A-Lan's father had already forgotten that he did not cherish the opportunity given to him by the old man because he had been brainwashed by Yue Yao.
"Yao'er is right. My father is too partial. You don't have to speak for the old man. He only likes his second brother," said A-Lan's father.
"Master, you have been tired for a long day today. I think you should rest first. I also want to think about how to deal with Boss Ji." Yue Yao said.
"No, no matter what, I can't make you work so hard." Alan's father said in disapproval.
"Master, for the sake of your future, you must work harder now. You have to go to the tea garden tomorrow morning. Leave Boss Ji's affairs to me." Yue Yao advised.
After hearing this, A-Lan's father had no choice but to let Yueyao leave and went back to the house.
Yueyao had already prepared the things she needed from the cabinet. After entering the study, she first put those things on her waist, and then used witchcraft to leave the Leng Mansion.
Fortunately, she knew witchcraft, otherwise she would not have arrived at the foot of the Fengtian Sect so quickly.
Yueyao stood at the foot of the mountain and sighed softly. She ran away from this mountain back then. She didn't expect that she would come back many years later.
She was so familiar with the terrain of Suoshan that she could find where the tree hole was even without a map. After finding the tree hole, she jumped in.
What she didn't expect was that after walking about ten meters, she found that the entrance to the cave was blocked.
"Did the cave entrance collapse, or was it caused by man?" Yueyao said to herself.
Yue Yao stepped forward, pushed the rubble, and found that the entrance to the cave was tightly blocked. The cave did not seem to have collapsed naturally. Could someone have entered the ancient tomb?
Did someone tamper with the mechanism of the ancient tomb, which caused the tomb to collapse?
Yueyao tried, but she couldn't push the rubble no matter what, so she had to give up. Although it was only a dozen meters away, she knew that the entrance was actually a tomb passage. But how could she get in? Because it was not appropriate to alert the snake.
, Yueyao has no way to go in, and if she really goes to Mid-Levels, she may not have enough time.
