There was a tense atmosphere in the small study room. The housekeeper stood aside respectfully. When he raised his eyes, he saw the solemn expressions on the faces of his two masters.

"How did you guard them and let those four people slip away! How could they escape so easily under your noses when their cultivation has been abolished?" Fu Yinqiu couldn't help scolding them.

She really couldn't figure it out. The group of people in the West Courtyard had lost their cultivation level a long time ago, and they were probably no longer comparable to ordinary people. And the Jimo family's dungeon was not only heavily guarded, but also had formations set up.

Whenever there is an abnormality, the guards will discover it immediately.

Therefore, in the hundreds of years since the dungeon was built, no one could escape from here. But today, it was broken!

If it were someone else who escaped, Fu Yinqiu wouldn't be so angry. But it was Jimohong's family who escaped, and the other party was now leading the way for the family head and his party.

His wife and children disappeared at this time. If there was nothing fishy about it, she wouldn't believe it at all.

After Fu Yinqiu scolded him, the guards felt guilty and aggrieved.

When the formation warned, they had already rushed over as fast as possible, but they were still a step too late. They really did not expect that this group of people who had lost their spiritual power would still have the ability to escape from the dungeon.

.

Sang Ying glanced at the guards who had their heads lowered, and then comforted Fu Yinqiu: "Madam, don't be angry. The top priority is to find out how they escaped and catch those four people. What has happened has already happened.

, it will not help to blame them anymore.”

Fu Yinqiu sighed, she didn't know this truth, but now that her husband and son were gone, she and Sang Ying were in charge of Rizhao City. Such a big responsibility rested on their shoulders, so she didn't dare to relax in the slightest.

"In my opinion, the four people in the west courtyard probably didn't escape on their own. They were probably rescued." Sang Ying first came to this conclusion after listening to the descriptions of several guards.

Fu Yinqiu and others all agreed with her words. In their opinion, the idiots in the West Courtyard would not be able to pull off any tricks without Jimo Hong's advice.

If someone hadn't helped them, they might have been locked up in a dungeon for the rest of their lives.

Fu Yinqiu, who quickly calmed down, pointed at one of the guards and asked: "How did you find out something was wrong at that time, and what did you see when you rushed to the cell? Tell me all this, and don't miss any part.

Lose."

After all, Fu Yinqiu has been the wife of the housekeeper for many years, and Fu Yinqiu's aura is very intimidating.

As soon as she spoke, the guard naturally did not dare to hide anything, and immediately told clearly what he had seen and heard before, without daring to hide anything.

In addition to him, Fu Yinqiu named a few more people and told them again. There was basically no discrepancy in their statements, and it seemed that no problems could be found.

But while the last person was talking, he added: "Oh, by the way, after we rushed over, my subordinates seemed to have seen a trace of black smoke in the cell."

"Black smoke? Are you sure you saw black smoke?" Fu Yinqiu quickly asked.

When the guard was asked this question by her, he immediately hesitated in his initially confident tone: "I'm not very sure either. When I saw that there was no one in the cell, I subconsciously looked up and saw a wisp of black smoke drifting away.

.The subordinate thought that he had made a mistake, after all, no one else seemed to notice this abnormality."

If Fu Yinqiu hadn't repeatedly emphasized that he must tell her every detail, the guard probably wouldn't have recalled this.

Seeing that he couldn't ask any more questions, Fu Yinqiu waved them away.

The study became quiet again, with only Sang Ying, Fu Yinqiu and the housekeeper remaining.

The housekeeper was the first to speak: "Do you need me to check the black smoke again?"

Fu Yinqiu rubbed his swollen forehead and nodded to him: "This matter will trouble you. Be sure to screen all the people related to the black smoke. Those who are related to Yongye City are even more important.

It’s so heavy!”

The housekeeper responded to Fu Yinqiu's suggestions and hurriedly went out to do some work.

On the contrary, Sang Ying chewed on the word "black smoke" for a long time, not knowing what she was thinking.

Fu Yinqiu saw her expression and immediately softened his voice and said: "We will definitely be able to find out about this matter. It is probably just some back-up plan left by Jimo Hong. It won't be a big problem, so don't worry."

Although Sang Ying was also given the important task of guarding the city, Fu Yinqiu secretly did not want her to get involved in these troubles.

Sang Ying couldn't tell that Madam cared about her, which would have caused trouble to the other disciple. Sang Ying had no choice but to respond: "Of course I believe Madam, Rizhao City will be safe and sound until the master and the others come back."

Fu Yinqiu curved his lips and smiled, patting Sang Ying's hand affectionately.

Although the two of them looked relaxed, their hearts were a bit heavy.

Especially Sang Ying, when she first heard the word "black smoke", she had an ominous premonition in her heart.

After leaving the study, Sang Ying returned to her room. She took the small basket off the window sill, and then lifted the layer of crocodile on top, revealing the little black snake sleeping peacefully underneath.

Maybe he shouldn't be called a little snake. After all, although he has no scales, he still has half-cut off horns on his head.

"Why aren't you awake yet?" Sang Ying couldn't help but asked in a low voice.

Cang Lian transformed into a human form and sat down at the table. She took a piece of pastry and stuffed it into her mouth.

While stuffing it, he said: "Senior has obviously absorbed too much spiritual energy at one time and cannot digest it quickly. Please let him sleep for a while longer to ensure that he can regain some strength when he wakes up."

Sang Ying only found out later that the soil of Wanxiang Mountain had special healing power for Jiang Zhuoxue. Within a few days of integrating into the earth, he had absorbed a lot of the spiritual energy that had spread out.

In particular, Sang Ying's sharp sword benefited him a lot.

So after they solved the problem in the mine, Jiang Zhuoxue couldn't help but fall into a deep sleep of repairing himself.

Although she knew that after the other party woke up, his strength would recover somewhat, his current appearance still made Sang Ying a little worried.

"I hope everything can be resolved before senior wakes up!" Sang Ying sincerely hoped.

It’s a pity that everything in this world can never go as planned?

On the third day after the family head and his party left, news came that the Jimo family head's flying boat team encountered a storm on the way to Yaozhou. The entire team's dozen or so flying boats were all involved in the turbulence, and their lives were at risk.

unknown!

When he received the news, even as strong as Fu Yinqiu, his vision went dark and he almost fainted on the spot.

Fortunately, Sang Ying was always paying attention to her and helped her immediately.

Fu Yinqiu's vulnerability only lasted for a moment. She quickly calmed down and ordered the housekeeper in a cold voice: "Suppress this matter and never let outsiders know about it. Send people to search for traces of the family master as soon as possible, and then order the city lord's palace to

With the intensity of inspections, we in Rizhao City may be facing quite a storm!"

When the housekeeper heard this, he didn't care much and quickly arranged all the affairs.

However, their actions were still a step too late. By the next day, the news that the head of the Jimo family and his party had disappeared had spread throughout Rizhao City. Then what weighed on everyone's hearts was that the group seemed to have fallen from the sky and surrounded Rizhao City.

This evil cultivator in Yongye City who can't understand anything!
