Xie Jingxi stood at the entrance of the secret basement, hesitating for a while before she walked out. There were only two possibilities for him to do this, either Ye Ying or Shen Huanzhi had already escaped, or both of them had been captured. If the situation got worse, there might even be people waiting there.
She observed for a while from inside the house, and taking advantage of the faint moonlight outside, and seeing the mess of corpses in the courtyard, her heart immediately tensed up. She took a few deep breaths, and then mustered her courage to walk out, carefully inspecting the corpses on the ground, but she did not know what kind of emotions she was using to distinguish the faces, from Ye Ying's house to the grain storehouse at the front, and after confirming that An and the other two were not around, she directly squatted on the ground.
She forced herself to calm down and think about every single detail. When she was in the secret cellar, her ears had always been listening to An's voice, and he had been crying uneasily, but she had never heard his voice, so she did not know if he had just calmed down or if she had been brought away by Shen Huanzhi, but from the desperate situation in the courtyard, Ye Ying definitely had fought with them before. Shen Huanzhi did not know any martial arts, so it was unlikely that he would fight with them while hugging An.
As long as Shen Huanzhi could escape with An, the situation would be much better than what they expected, but Ye Ying would most likely be taken away, the majority of the corpses on the ground were the shop assistants, thus Ye Ying did not have many chances of success in escaping.
Xie Jingxi thought that she wouldn't be able to stay here, but she had no direction to go out, so she didn't know how many demons and ghosts there were in the Quadruple Town. If she went out, she would immediately be caught, and she couldn't continue hiding in the secret room.
While she was lost in thought, she suddenly heard extremely minute footsteps. Xie Jingxi was shocked, and immediately dropped to the ground, pretending to be dead while holding her breath. The cold feeling on the ground during winter night was bone-chilling, her hands were already cold.
The sound of their footsteps was extremely careful, as if they were searching for someone, and were moving the corpses on the ground non-stop, but their movements were extremely cautious. Xie Jingxi thought, it must not be a person, then, who could it be?
Hearing that the person was getting closer to her, Xie Jingxi sneaked a look at him, and after a long time, she realised that he was not Doctor Chang, so she became excited and called out: "Doctor Chang, it's me."
Doctor Chang was digging through the corpses when he heard someone call him. He thought that it was a fake corpse and was scared to the point that he squatted on the ground, not daring to look at her for a long time. "You … "Is he dead or alive …"
Although she knew that it was not the right time, Xie Jingxi still wanted to laugh, "It's me, Xi, Doctor Chang is not dead yet."
"Oh oh, you're the wife of Xi, how can you still be alive? "No, I mean, what's going on?" Doctor Chang helped Xie Jingxi up, "Aiyo, you can't lie on the ground. With your body, quick, this isn't a good place to talk, quickly come with me."
He never thought that Doctor Chang would actually be this kind of person. He probably came here to look around in the middle of the night, and since it was only because he heard the news, Xie Jingxi did not dare delay any longer. He went back to Ye Ying's house to find a cape to wrap himself completely from head to toe, before following behind Doctor Chang to exit the grain storehouse.
It was quiet outside, there was not even a single person on the road, Xie Jingxi thought that she would be able to beat up someone who was patrolling the streets, but there was not a single person around, it seemed that Master Li was very confident in his judgement, he did not have any guard at all, his Quadruple Town was not big, after walking a few streets, he arrived at Doctor Chang's home, Doctor Chang did not have a wife, he lived alone.
"'s wife, you can hide here peacefully. Other than that, I can't guarantee that my place will be safe, I'll make a charcoal stove for you later, you can't get cold."
Xie Jingxi was extremely grateful, "Doctor Chang, at a time like this, you can help me out, I am already very grateful. To tell you the truth, I have been hiding in Ye Dong's house all this time and have not seen the situation outside. Did you hear any news?"
I can only sneak over there at night to take a look. In fact, I didn't have any hope of meeting you, I didn't think that I would be able to do so, I heard that Shopkeeper Ye has escaped from the city, and have sent people to chase after him, I don't know if they were able to catch up. "
Ye Ying escaped? Xie Jingxi did not expect that, "Did you see me, my husband?"
"You're saying that Shen Xianggong, I really didn't see it. He and the child didn't see it at all. Manager Ye is very skilled, so it is reasonable for him to have run away. Otherwise, he would definitely not have a good ending."
Being talked about like that, he became even more frightening. What kind of crappy place was Quadruple Town exactly!
"Doctor Chang, with my current condition, I can only rely on you to find out more about the situation outside. A few days ago, we've already contacted our family members, but we don't know when they came.
"You're right, as long as an outsider enters the Quadruple Town, it won't even take half a day's time for the news to reach everyone's ears. Don't worry, I will help you take note of the news outside."
For now, this was the only plan.
When the sky was about to brighten, Zhao Zhang took his people and left the Quadruple Town.
He was at a loss for words, but before he could think of what to say, Manager Li had made a new discovery, "Zhao Zhang, I brought people to scout the surroundings and found the mark our boss left behind. He has already left the city."
"Shen Dong family has already left the city?" Zhao Zhang frowned, "Feng'er brought me to a grain storehouse house, which was filled with corpses. I can conclude that our wife has definitely stayed there before, and when Shen Dong's family left the city, I wonder if they were together."
"All of them?" Manager Li was also shocked, "What the f * * k is this incredible thing!"
The entire town does not even have a single person patrolling the streets. The grain storehouse has started for some reason, and according to Feng'er, the place is exceptionally exclusive, and maybe because of this, the people here are looking for trouble. How about this, Manager Li, bring more people to chase after them, and I will leave a few people there.
"That's the only way." Manager Li did not hesitate, "If we are sure that they have escaped, I will send someone back to inform you. You must be careful, and do not expose yourself when there are few people around.
After a discussion, the Manager Li brought his men and chased out of the city. On the other hand, Zhao Zhang left a few people outside to guard, and after dawn broke, more and more people came to the city gate.
It was different from what he expected. He thought that he would be questioned at the city gates, but he never thought that it would be so easy to enter, which was even more strange. Didn't they say that it was very exclusive, shouldn't they be very strict when entering and exiting the city, or was it easier to leave?
Zhao Zhang tried his best to not attract too much attention, but it was as if everyone was looking at him. He wandered around the town as if nothing had happened, and when he arrived at the grain storehouse gate yesterday, he realized that there were a lot of people outside.
"I really didn't expect that the Ye Family's grain storehouse would fall like this overnight." That's right, it's not easy these days. A girl from Ye Dong's family supporting such a large family, but she only found a man from outside, and he just dragged her down. "
He found a foreign man? Zhao Zhang squeezed forward to ask, "Sister-in-law, what's going on with this house? I was planning to come over to discuss some business, how did it end up being closed?"
The woman who was just chattering was shocked by Zhao Zhang, she turned around and saw that he was an outsider, and retreated a few steps in fright, "This big brother, you must be from outside the city, I advise you to go to a different place to talk business, didn't you see the Ye Family make a mistake?"
"I'm back for the first time, so I don't understand the rules. Why don't you tell me about it?"
Zhao Zhang quietly stuffed some silver into her hands, and the lady then said to him in a low voice: "I'm telling you, come to our Quadruple Town, you have to report to our boss. No one will be able to question you when you walk down the street, once you go to someone's house to eke out food, people will come looking for you soon, if you don't want to cause trouble, just dig out some money and do what you need to do. Don't make any noise with them, otherwise, you won't be able to leave."
Zhao Zhang had seen such shamelessness, he then asked, "Then do I only need to go somewhere and be alright?"
"How can they be so cheap? There will still be people collecting them when we leave the city."
So it was like that.
"Then let me ask you one more time, who entered this grain storehouse house, and why did it cause such a commotion?"
It's a long story, but I suggest you not to ask too much. I can only tell you that a man came to your house a few days ago with unknown origins. I also heard that he gave birth to a baby.
The Lady has been born! Zhao Zhang was not sure if he was happy or worried. When the Madam produces, she definitely has to find a doctor, Sister-in-law, is there any medicine shop around?
"Medicine Shop! Two streets ahead of you. There are a few stores there, go and find them."
Zhao Zhang left the crowd and looked in the direction she indicated for the medicine store. There were a few medicine stores, so he couldn't go and ask his about it. After looking for a long time, he decided to go to the one with the biggest shop.
Doctor Chang Elder had long seen Zhao Zhang, and followed him all the way from the grain storehouse, seeing that he was looking straight at the medicine store from the street, he thought for a bit, then quickly caught up to him. Unexpectedly, he rubbed him a little, "Oh, this big brother here, I'm sorry, but you seem to have some sort of indescribable illness, I have all kinds of secret methods here, do you want to try it?"
Zhao Zhang was startled, he thought to himself.
