Jianyu stood under the wall. Jianfeng grabbed the top of the wall with the help of Jianyu's palms and shoulders, and then he glided over lightly.

Wei Qiqi and others only heard a short cry and then it was muffled.

Then the voices of Jian Feng and Jian Yu came from the small hole outside, "Master, come here first."

Wei Qiqi didn't agree and pushed Ye Yuanxin over first.

At this time, Ye Yuanxin did not refuse and passed through the cave very quickly.

She took off the bag on her body and handed it over carefully.

Then he turned to look at Xu Yaluo, and after holding back for a moment, he quickly hugged her tightly, and then left suddenly.

"Please take care of yourself, we will definitely meet again."

Then he lay on the ground and passed through the hole.

Ye Yuanxin and Ye Yuanfeng followed closely behind. After they left the cave, Xu Yaluo immediately moved some things from the side to block the entrance.

After a moment of silence, he turned and ran towards the lobby.

Wei Qiqi took the bag and put it on his back, still holding the bomb while running.

"Master, where are we going now?"

After everyone escaped, Jian Feng was alert to the surroundings and Jian Yu asked questions first.

It is not realistic to leave the city gate at this time. Going to another courtyard or hiding in someone else's house is not an option because the city will be searched sooner or later.

Where else could they fit so many people without being conspicuous?

where……

slums.

The slums that Li Yuan had taken her to.

And if Li Yuan and the others come back, they will probably go to the slums.

"To the ghetto!"

With a destination in mind, under the cover of sword edges and sword rain, they passed through sparsely populated areas and slowly walked towards the south of the city.

On the road, one could clearly feel the sudden oppression of the entire city.

The whole city was under martial law, and from time to time there were soldiers and officers clamoring for people to come out for inspection.

Their group was too conspicuous. If Ye Yuanjiang and Ye Yuanfeng had not been familiar with Xuancheng through their business, they would have been caught.

After several near misses, we finally arrived at the slums.

All the surrounding shops and brothels were closed. They should have been brightly lit at this time of night, but now there was only a cold wind.

"Walk."

Wei Qiqi spoke.

"and many more!"

Ye Yuanjiang suddenly spoke.

"I have to go back."

"What are you going to do at this time?" Wei Qiqi turned around and looked at Ye Yuanjiang.

"Master, our workshop and our hard work are all there, and there are dozens of people there. I have to settle them down." Ye Yuanjiang said this, then took a few steps back.

"It's too dangerous for you to go alone. I don't agree. And if you go alone, how can you protect dozens of people? Maybe they are waiting for you to go and follow the clues to find out who is behind it!"

Wei Qiqi taught him a lesson, but Ye Yuanjiang was stubborn. He knelt on the ground and a dull sound was heard.

"Master, please."

Before she could speak, Ye Yuanfeng also knelt down and said, "Master, please forgive me, but I really can't give up the workshop. I will go with you." Ye Yuanfeng observed her expression and added, "I will adapt to the situation."

Under the cover of night, Wei Qiqi and others stood in the shadow of the secret passage. In front of them was the slums, and behind them was the unknown.

As a matter of conscience, she didn't want Ye Yuanfeng and Ye Yuanjiang to be in danger.

But I couldn't just ignore the workshop and the dozens of people there, clear conscience aside.

"Do you remember where you are? If something goes wrong later, you can find a chance to sneak in."

Wei Qiqi didn't know what to say. Ye Yuanfeng and Ye Yuanjiang were overjoyed when they heard it. Ye Yuanfeng knew that this meant she agreed, so he nodded in agreement.

Even though they knew their master was not happy to accept their gift, they still kowtowed, and then the two of them left one after the other.

Ye Yuanxin watched her two brothers leave with some worry. Wei Qiqi patted her arm comfortingly, signaling her not to worry.

Wei Qiqi led Ye Yuanxin and Jianfeng Jianyu into the secret passage. The road conditions inside were complicated and similar.

But she remembered how to identify it.

Xiaobao told her that she should look for the couplets on the door that have uneven upper corners.

After turning around a few times, Jian Yu, with his sharp eyes, immediately found the door that Wei Qiqi described.

Wei Qiqi asked Ye Yuanxin to keep watch, and then went forward and knocked on the door.

After knocking several times, the door creaked open. The person who opened the door looked familiar, but she was not sure if it was the same person who opened the door two years ago.

"Who are you looking for?"

"Young Master Wan asked us to come here." Wei Qiqi borrowed Li Yuan's name and said with lowered eyebrows.

The man looked around and then said, "Everyone, come in first. If you have anything to say, come in and talk."

The door was opened, Wei Qiqi looked at the people behind him and motioned them to go in together.

After entering, the man indeed closed the door and whispered, "Everyone wait here, I will go and report first, and I will come back to take you away after confirming that everything is correct."

Wei Qiqi nodded.

They didn't have to wait long, and soon they heard footsteps from where they had left.

Wei Qiqi looked over and saw that it was the thin and long-faced shopkeeper Ma.

"Shopkeeper Ma." She walked forward and bowed.

"Oh, no, no." Receiving this gift, Shopkeeper Ma stepped forward in panic to stop it: "You are Master Wan's people, so you must accept our protection. Don't be polite."

"I still have to thank you." Wei Qiqi did not salute again, but looked at Ye Yuanxin.

Ye Yuanxin, who had been with her for some time, immediately understood. He took out a silver note worth one thousand taels from the backpack that he had hurriedly brought out and handed it to Wei Qiqi.

She took it and handed it to Shopkeeper Ma: "I don't know how many days I will be staying here, so please help me with food and drinks, as well as the labor of going up and down."

Only when the money is distributed and people benefit from it will they be willing to help others. She is not sure about the relationship between these people and Xiaobao, so it is better to be safe.

"Madam, you, you have a special status, you should treat this place as your own home, why do you have to be so polite." Shopkeeper Ma waved his hands repeatedly.

"This is also for our own benefit. After all, we have a lot of things to do in this industry, and we will have to worry about food and clothing when the time comes."

Shopkeeper Ma understood that these were all excuses. Not to mention that these people were Young Master Wan's men and were supposed to be protected, there was nothing that could not be done with the one thousand taels. It was all for the purpose of making everyone from top to bottom loyal to them.

“Take it.” Seeing that Shopkeeper Ma was about to refuse again, Wei Qiqi directly stuffed the money into Shopkeeper Ma’s hand.

"Give it to the people below equally. No matter how much, make sure everyone gets the same amount to avoid adding more trouble later."

Shopkeeper Ma was forced to accept the banknote, but he was happy in his heart.

I helped them run around and picked out a yard for them. Although the yard was not very big and was a bit leaky, it was different from before after all.

They are on the run.

After arriving at the place, the shopkeeper Ma efficiently brought them clean and simple clothes.

Ye Yuanxin first poured some hot water for her and asked her to wash and change clothes. After he finished with Wei Qiqi, he started to clean up.

While she was cleaning up, Wei Qiqi slowly reviewed today's events.

Fate is really a cycle.

She had just come through, and was being chased and on the run.

Now she is on the run.

Just came through and climbed through the dog hole to run with Li Yuan.

Now I am still climbing through the dog hole, but I am taking other people with me.
