Seeing Linlang fainting, the old woman slowly straightened up her slightly bent waist, and her expression no longer looked like an old person.

Aunt Yun was overjoyed and was about to speak when the old woman changed her kindness and her eyes became sharp.

"Why are you using the Jade Talisman for personal use? Don't you know that it is not allowed to be used unless there is an extreme emergency?"

The smile on Aunt Yun's face faded, and she didn't dare to speak disrespectfully.

"I know, Master Yun doesn't dare to forget the rules, but this time it's really an emergency and I have to take the risk."

"Risk?" the old woman asked, "Let the master take the risk. If something goes wrong, can you afford it?"

"Mother Yun doesn't dare," Aunt Yun quickly saluted, "I didn't mean that."

"Get up!" the old woman shouted in a low voice, "Someone passes by the door from time to time. What are you doing? Wouldn't it arouse suspicion if people see you?"

Aunt Yun stood up again: "I really have no choice. I finally came out of the manor just to meet the eldest master and report the situation."

The old woman still looked displeased: "What urgent matter is worth your trouble? Want to see the master? Tell me first."

How could Aunt Yun tell her? After going through countless hardships and narrowly escaping from death, he finally came out, but he still had to suffer miserably in front of his master in order to gain some benefits or something.

At least I have to go back and deal with that bitch Jiang Xianyu.

All these require the eldest master to give her the power.

Thinking of this, Aunt Yun forced a smile and said: "The matter is very important, related to the survival of the manor, I dare not be careless."

The old woman glanced at her: "Life or death? Then why don't you see the steward of the manor coming?"

"I came here just to tell the eldest master about this person." Aunt Yun lowered her voice, "Please report to the eldest master quickly and be sure to summon me."

Not only did the old woman's expression not soften, but her expression became even uglier.

"It's a big taboo to report to someone higher up. If it turns out that you are falsely accusing you, then there will only be a dead end. Have you thought about it?"

Aunt Yun's throat rolled: "I know, but for the sake of the eldest master and the truth of the matter, I must say it."

"If after meeting the master, the master asks me to die immediately, I will be willing to do so."

Since it came to this point, the old lady no longer stopped her.

"You go to the back to rest first, and I will contact the master. When to summon you, you have to follow the master's arrangements."

Aunt Yun didn't want to waste time. She didn't know what was going on in the manor now. Would Jiang Xianyu have discovered that she was gone? If he found out, would he take preemptive actions and send the news first?

These are all unknown, and a slight loss of opportunity is enough to put her at a disadvantage and endanger her life.

"Please hurry up. The manor doesn't know about this yet. Once they find out, someone might file a complaint first."

The old woman didn't say anything. She pointed behind her and let her in.

She turned around and was about to leave when the old woman stopped her again: "What should I do with this girl?"

Aunt Yun looked at Linlang who had fainted and decided to kill him directly, but then she thought again, if that didn't work, she would just keep him alive for now.

In case Jiang Xianyu gets the upper hand, she will have to rely on Xiantao's help and must leave a way out.

Thinking of this, she helped Linlang up: "I'll take her to the back."

The old lady reminded lightly: "If it is an unrelated person, it is best to deal with it as soon as possible, otherwise there will be endless troubles."

"I see."

Aunt Yun took Linlang to the back, and everything in the shop returned to normal.

The old woman put up a sign saying it was closed and turned around to go out.

When Yan Ruyu arrived, the store was already closed.

She looked around, but Linlang was nowhere to be seen.

Myna flew over and landed first on the spot where Aunt Yun had left a mark.

The mark is left at the base of the wall, and the bottom part is a little peeling. The white rune pattern is not very clear, half hidden and half visible.

If you didn't look carefully, you really wouldn't be able to tell.

"This pattern..." Yan Ruyu frowned and looked carefully.

Huo Changhe said: "It's not the one we've seen before."

"They are different, but the patterns on the edges are very similar," Yan Ruyu pointed to the small floral decorations on the edges. "The ones in the middle are different, but they seem to be... an upgrade from the original."

Huo Changhe didn't know how to paint, and his focus was different from Yan Ruyu's, but after hearing what she said, he felt that it was true.

However, this pattern is indeed too blurry, and it is impossible for Yan Ruyu to repaint it.

"Find her and get her jade plaque, then it will become clear."

Yan Ruyu stood up and looked back at Ba Ge: "Where did Linlang go?"

Myna said in a high-pitched voice: "I'm so hungry. Let's eat something."

"It's just a matter of waiting. You can see it over there."

This is imitating Aunt Yun's speech.

Yan Ruyu understood, looked around, and focused on the snack bar.

“If you can see here and eat, this is the store.”

Huo Changhe walked over and saw the closure sign: "Suspended?"

Yan Ruyu looked inside and couldn't see inside with the window open, but she could tell that it was quiet inside, with no movement and no diners.

"Go in and have a look."

Yan Ruyu believed in Linlang. This girl looked like a tiger and didn't know how to adapt, but in fact she was very cautious. If she moved somewhere, there would be a signal and she wouldn't leave quietly.

But there is no sign outside the store, so it must be inside.

When I opened the door, I saw that the shop was very clean and there was no one there. Just as I was about to come in, I poked my head out of the small window on the wall.

"Do you want to eat?"

He's an old man.

"Old man, can you please do something for us to eat?" Yan Ruyu asked with a smile.

"My wife is out and I can't do it alone, so I'm suspending business."

"It's okay, don't be in a hurry, just take a break, take your time."

The old man was bored when he was idle, so he promised to work behind the scenes.

Yan Ruyu searched the room and found that the table was clean and there were no traces.

Huo Changhe walked to the small window and asked, "Old man, are there many guests today?"

"It's not much today, it's cold."

"Is there a little girl here? It's my sister. She got into trouble with the family and ran out on her own."

The old man thought for a while: "There is not a little girl, but there is a little girl who came here with someone else."

"with who?"

"It's a woman," the old man said, "but I was dozing in the back just now, so I don't know when they left."

Huo Changhe thanked Yan Ruyu and looked at each other.

It seemed that that was Linlang, and she and Aunt Yun had indeed been here.

But where did Linlong go? She won't leave without a reason.

Huo Changhe whispered: "I'm going to ask the secret guards around me to see if they have seen her."

Yan Ruyu nodded, and Huo Changhe turned around and walked out.

Yan Ruyu was alone in the store, sitting on a bench, when she suddenly smelled a vague aroma.

It's subtle, but it's there.

She immediately searched for it, and when she lowered her head and saw under the table, her eyes froze slightly.
