Chapter 606 - Night search

In Qiyun Mountain

Cui’er took people to search in various inns in the city to find the place where Bai Zhi and her family settled. At this moment, it was already night, Bai Zhi just fell asleep. However, she suddenly heard a knock on the door. Bai Zhi immediately woke up, as well as Ru’er. Ru’er cried in fright. The previous shock hadn’t dissipated in her mind, so how could she bear this shock?

Bai Zhi jumped out of bed, stood barefoot on the floor, and asked the person who knocked on the door outside the room: “Who?”

The person who knocked on the door was a man working in the inn: “Guest, someone is looking for you, saying that there is something urgent.”

Bai Zhi frowned, someone was looking for her? She was a stranger here, who will look for her?

Bai Zhi asked: “Who is looking for me? What’s the person’s name?”

The man outside said: “It’s a girl. She said that her lady was lucky to be saved by you when she fainted this morning. Now, her lady’s condition is getting worse. She hopes you can check her condition.”

Bai Zhi suddenly realized that it was the maidservant from earlier. She released a sigh of relief, put on her clothes, and opened the door. She asked: “Where is she?”

The man replied: “She is waiting downstairs, you will know when you go there.”

Bai Zhi asked Zhao Lan to sleep with Ru’er. She followed the man downstairs. From there, the girl standing in the hall was indeed the maidservant she met this morning.

“Miss, how is your lady now?” She rushed forward and inexplicably asked with worry.

Cui’er was very happy to see the little doctor: “I finally found you. I should have thought that you can’t go to those expensive inns. I should have come here to look for you. I wasted so much time.”

Bai Zhi asked again: “How is your lady now?”

Cui’er shook her head: “I’ve been out for several hours now, I don’t know how my lady is. Doctor Bai, please go with me. My master wants to see you and ask you about something.”

Bai Zhi didn’t hesitate and immediately nodded her head: “Okay, I’ll just go upstairs and inform my family.”

Bai Zhi went upstairs again. After explaining things to Zhao Lan, she came down again and followed Cui’er into the carriage.

When the carriage ran out of the city, Bai Zhi found it strange: “Why did we go out of the city?”

Cui’er smiled and said, “Our lady is the daughter of Dongfang Family. Don’t you know Dongfang Family?”

Bai Zhi shook her head: “I haven’t heard of it, is it a famous family?”

Cui’er replied: “In my opinion, it is famous. After all, Master was an assistant minister and the regent of the monarch. He was highly trusted by the emperor. Although he retired now, the status of Dongfang Family is still solid and unshaken.”

Bai Zhi still shook her head: “I’ve never heard of it, do they live far?”

Cui’er said: “Not far away, just outside the city. The Dongfang Family lives on Qiyun Mountain.”

Bai Zhi’s eyes widened in shock: “Live on the mountain? That’s scary. Are there no beasts in there?”

Cui’er chuckled: “You are really interesting. There are 5000 soldiers stationed in on Qiyun Mountain. Even if there are fierce beasts, what is there to be afraid of?”

Bai Zhi was even more confused: “Didn’t you just say that your master retired? Can you still manage the soldiers even after you retire? The emperor doesn’t care?”

Cui’er laughed: “This is the emperor’s special treatment, only this one!”

While talking, the carriage had already arrived at the city’s gate. The gate was already closed. After seeing the token presented by the coachman, the gate was immediately pushed open and the guards let them out.

After leaving the city, the road became bumpy. On the way to the mountain, the road had stabilized again. Obviously, the mountain road was carefully built.
