The children drank the water one by one, and their faces looked better. However, they were still swaying and unsteady. When the guard who gave the water saw it, he frowned and said to the other guards:
"Why don't we just send them there first? We're almost there now."
"Well, okay."
The other guard nodded, and immediately said to the other guards: "Let's send them there together."
…
coming.
Bai Youyou watched from the side and stood up after hearing this.
At this time, the two guards were already telling the group of children: "You will go to the City Lord's Mansion in a moment. Remember not to wander around in the City Lord's Mansion, and don't be too curious. After you get the identity card, you will
Then you can live in the City Lord’s Mansion.”
Aren't you entering a secret realm?
Why stay in the City Lord’s Mansion?
Bai Youyou narrowed her eyes slightly.
At this time, a child asked her question: "But aren't we going to the secret realm? Why are we going to the City Lord's Mansion? And what is the identity card?"
The guard snorted coldly: "There are still four days before entering the secret realm. Do you have money to stay in an inn? As for the identity tag? Of course it is a good thing that can allow you to enter the secret realm."
As soon as these words came out, the child stopped talking, and the two guards led them towards a small alley.
There was a huge group of people.
Bai Youyou followed without thinking.?
…
The City Lord's Mansion is located in the center of Lin'an City, on the most luxurious Shifang Street. Living next to the City Lord's Mansion are only three major families, namely the Mao Family, the Fox Family, and the Yang Family, who are also demon cultivators.
, there are some shops selling elixirs, magic charms, and rouge gouache on Shifang Street. Most of the things in these shops are very expensive, and ordinary people are not even qualified to enter.
However, Lin'an City is very big after all, and there are many people who are either rich or noble. Therefore, at noon time, the whole street is full of people. Some of them are riding unicorns, some are riding on birds, and there are even
People were flying with their swords in mid-air, coming and going, it was so lively.
When two guards sent dozens of children to Shifang Street, the atmosphere on the whole street suddenly became weird. After the guards walked away, someone looked at the children sympathetically: "How pitiful."
, so small each one..."
But before he finished speaking, he was interrupted: "Shut up, you dare to say such things, don't you want to live?"
"well…"
Bai Youyou has been following the guard, but she has strong mental power and can clearly hear the discussions around her.
Thinking again of the waiter’s reaction,
It seems,
The whole Lin'an City knows about the weirdness of this 'secret realm'.
Bai Youyou thought that when she had time, she would ask someone casually. If they didn't tell her, then it would be settled.
Bai Youyou snorted softly.
And at this time,
The guards finally sent the children to the gate of the city lord's mansion.
The city lord's mansion is very large and very impressive. There are two majestic stone lions at the door. Dozens of guards in armor are standing under the steps. They are holding long swords and looking ahead with a majestic look. After seeing so many children,
After that, a complicated look flashed in their eyes, and then two guards stepped forward and pushed the door open. After talking with the two escorting guards, the two guards left, and a middle-aged guard took the child into the city owner's house.
Mansion.
Bai Youyou also took the opportunity to follow in.
…
"Ah, that's bad! The young master is gone! The young master Ye is gone!"
at the same time,
From the Hu family next to the city lord's mansion, a sharp and panicked female voice suddenly broke out, followed by a burst of panicked footsteps.
"What?"
"What did you say?"
"What do you mean, Master Ye is missing? What do you mean?"
The last person to speak was Mao Lulu. Standing next to her were Mao Xiaoyue, Yang Zhantang and Yang Zhanqi. After the four of them parted ways with Hu Ye last night, the more they thought about it after they went back, the more they felt that Hu Ye was really unlucky. What if something happened?
What should I do? The more I thought about it, the more uneasy I felt, so I got up early this morning. The four of them gathered together. They wanted to come directly to Hu Ye, but Hu Ye usually slept until noon, so they waited at home until noon.
I couldn’t wait to come find Hu Ye, but who knew——
Following the maid to Hu Ye's room, they heard her panicked scream, which made the four of them panic immediately. After Mao Lulu asked, Mao Xiaoyue pushed the maid away and looked towards the room.
, there was no one inside.
The maid was pushed to the ground and suddenly looked like her eyes were filled with tears.
The expressions of Mao Xiaoyue and the others instantly darkened.
"Where did Brother Ye go?"
They looked at each other, and finally their eyes fell on the maid on the ground: "Tell me, when did Brother Ye come back last night?"
The maid got up from the ground, knelt on the ground and said aggrievedly: "It was already very late when Master Ye came back last night. When he came back, he was dirty, so he asked the slaves to prepare hot water for him, slave.
I prepared hot water for him, but when I came back, I didn’t see Mr. Ye, and I don’t know where Mr. Ye has gone. In addition, Mr. Ye has always been elusive, so I…”
"Shut up, is this the time for you to shirk your responsibilities?" Before the maid could finish her words, she was interrupted by Mao Lulu. She gave the maid a cold look: "In other words, since last night, you have
Haven’t you seen your young master?”
"yes."
Mao Xiaoyue pursed her lips and smiled, but the smile did not reach her eyes at all: "I remember that you are Brother Ye's personal maid, right? You didn't see Brother Ye last night, and you won't come to see him this morning?"
Mao Lulu continued: "Furthermore, you said that Brother Ye is always elusive. Why did you say that Brother Ye was missing when you didn't see him this time?"
Maid:......
Lowered his head: "Slave..."
"Okay," Yang Zhantang took a deep breath and interrupted the maid: "I wonder where Brother Ye went to play. Let's go first. If Brother Ye comes back, tell him that we were here and let him
He came to us."
"This slave knows." The maid suddenly let out a breath of relief.
Mao Lulu and Mao Xiaoyue's expressions were not very good. They wanted to say something, but were stopped by Yang Zhantang's eyes, so they suppressed their inner dissatisfaction.
It wasn't until after leaving the Fox Mansion that Mao Lulu looked at Yang Zhantang unkindly: "What do I mean by calling you a sheep? That maid is lying at first glance. You actually let us go first. What do you mean?"
Yangzhantang:……
"You also know that the maid is lying. If a maid dares to lie, it means there must be someone behind her. Even if we make a fuss, it will be meaningless. It will only alert the enemy."
What Yang Zhantang said makes perfect sense.
Mao Lulu's face softened slightly, but her brows still furrowed: "Then what do you think we should do?"
"Do you still remember the little girl named Bai Youyou yesterday?"
Yang Zhanqi gave Yang Zhantang a blank look: "How could you not remember?"
Mao Xiaoyue pursed her lips, her voice soft and soft: "What do you mean..."
"That's right."
Yang Zhantang nodded without hesitation: "That girl is a great child prodigy. Yesterday we saw that Brother Ye would be in danger, so we must find her as soon as possible, so maybe Brother Ye still has a chance of survival."
"Then what are you waiting for?" Mao Lulu said, "Let's split up."
