Shen Xing looked up at the stage. Ten girls had already come on stage. Just as the madam had said, they were all wearing the same clothes and had veils on their heads. Although it was veil, it was too hazy and it was impossible to see what the people inside looked like, not to mention that everyone was far away.

He looked at each girl carefully, and he didn't know if it was intentional or not, but the height of each girl was almost the same, not to mention their figures, which were even harder to tell apart.

I watched it over and over again several times, but I really couldn't tell which one was Shen Li.

Maybe he was wrong and Shen Li was not here at all. But if he was not here, then why did that person lead him here and not give him any information until now? What did that mean?

Shen Xing was very anxious at this time. He knew that Shen Li was here, but he had no idea where to start even though he was so close. He couldn't guess the purpose of the messenger. It was very likely that he was hiding in the dark and spying on him.

Just when he was at a loss, he saw a man in the crowd. When he was about to speak, he saw the man shaking his head at him.

Only then did he calm down. Yes, if he was being monitored, he could not talk to him, otherwise he would be exposed. He would be a target here, and Qin Yu could hide in the dark and quietly look for Shen Li.

That’s right, the person he saw in the crowd was Qin Yu.

Shen Xing didn't know why Qin Yu appeared here, but she knew that he also came to save Shen Li, so that was good.

Qin Yu was in control of Baizhi Pavilion, so naturally he knew everything, and he always had people keeping an eye on Shen Li. After receiving the news that she was missing, he rushed here, switching between land and sea, traveling day and night, and finally arrived after three days.

Moreover, during these three days, he sent out all the people from Nanzhou Baizhi Pavilion and finally found out that Shen Li was in Feixian Tower.

He had just looked at the ten people on the stage, and Shen Li was not among them. Others might not be able to recognize her, but he could. Even if he couldn't see her face, he could recognize her. It was a kind of intuition and feeling.

Chen Zheng and his men searched around and just happened to come back at this time.

"Master, we found nothing. We have opened all the doors that can be opened, but there are still some doors that cannot be opened. They must be bolted from the inside."

Qin Yu nodded: "How many rooms?"

"Eight."

"If there is no secret room here, the person should be in one of these eight rooms. Has the madam checked the room?"

"I checked. She wasn't in the room. I went there myself. There's no secret room."

"Have you looked anywhere else?"

"We searched the kitchen, the room where the people live, and other places. We searched everywhere, but we found nothing. There is no secret room either."

"Then it should be very likely among these eight. Is there anything suspicious among them?"

Chen Zheng thought for a moment and said, "No, I knocked on the door but didn't hear any sound from inside."

Qin Yu narrowed his eyes and said, "Divide the people into eight groups and force their way in."

"But if that's the case, what if Miss Shen is in one of the rooms? Wouldn't that be dangerous? And we only brought four people with us."

"Then take me to have a look first." Qin Yu said.

Ye Muyu and Ye Baichuan were also searching room by room like Qin Yu's men, but there were only two of them, so it was much slower.

Shen Xing was still sitting in the hall, watching that three girls had already been bought. Although he was anxious, he thought that with Qin Yu's help, his chances of winning would naturally be better. As long as he didn't move, the people in the dark would naturally jump out.

……

As for Shen Li, during the past three days, every noon, a woman would bring her food and water. Of course, this only happened once a day. When the woman opened the door, there was no sound outside, but she could smell some powder scent, which was a mixture of many smells, and the woman who brought her food also had that scent on her body.

In other words, this is a place with a lot of women, and they all use rouge and powder. In addition, it is quiet during the day, but becomes lively at night, and you can even smell a hint of alcohol.

She felt that this place might very well be a brothel. Although she had never been there, it fit the description very well because it was a lively place at night. That alone made it fit the description very well.

As expected, the place chosen by this flower thief is also where there are many women.

Especially now, it seems to be busier outside than ever.

Shen Li moved to the door little by little, and looked out through the small gap in the door. There was actually a person standing in the corridor at the door. The person had his back to her and was looking downstairs.

She had observed over the past three days that no one would come here, but now there was a person standing outside the door. Judging from his figure, he looked very much like the person who had arrested her.

Is there something special going on tonight? It was particularly lively outside, and he was still standing there watching. Could it be that the third brother had come?

Thinking of this, Shen Li took off the red hairband that tied her hair. This was the only thing left on her. The cloth bag she was carrying and some other things on her body were all gone after she woke up.

Not to mention there wasn't even a candlestick in the room.

She bit the hairband with her teeth, then tore it with her hands, finally breaking off a small piece. She used the remaining hairband to tie her hair up again. Looking at the hairband that was less than half the length of her little finger, she held it tightly in her hand as if it were her life-saving straw, and then hid behind the door again.

She tried hard to regulate her breathing and not to breathe too heavily, but there was no other way. She was sweating even while standing and she really had no strength.

I don't know how long I waited, but I heard the sound of a lock being unlocked outside. Then the door opened and a person walked in.

Shen Li gathered all his strength and punched the person who came.

The man easily caught her fist, then swung it and threw her away.

Shen Li was completely exhausted and fell to the ground after being thrown away. She used the force of the throw to throw the hairband in her hand out the door.

Coincidentally, a gust of wind blew and the small piece of hairband flew away.

For fear of being seen by the man, Shen Li deliberately shouted "Ah" when she fell to the ground. This was the only way to attract his attention and prevent him from focusing on other things, but it was actually very painful.

The man looked at Shen Li on the ground with contempt, then closed the door: "You, you still want to sneak attack me?"

Shen Li looked at the closed door and finally breathed a sigh of relief. Actually, she originally wanted to get something, but there was nothing she could do. There was a stool, but she couldn't lift it.

In fact, when she looked at the open door just now, she really wanted to run out, but she really didn't have the strength to get up from the ground. Let's put it this way, she didn't sleep well or eat well in the past few days, and with the effect of the medicine, she didn't even have the strength to speak.

After all the trouble just now, she had no strength left and could only lie on the ground. She didn't know if her bet was right or if the third brother had come.

"Why aren't you talking?" the man asked again.

"No...strength."
