When Ling Zhouyang woke up, night had already fallen.
She slept too deeply and didn't get up in time for dinner, so now she was ravenous.
Ling Zhouyang had just opened the door, and originally wanted to go to the kitchen to see what was left to eat, but then she thought, she had cheated Yu Shisan of so much money that time at Jinsha Tower, why didn't she go out and have a nice time.
So she turned around and went back to the room, picked up the money bag and put it in her arms.
As soon as I reached the door of the post house, the guard standing in front of the door asked: "Is Miss Lingzhou still going out so late?"
Ling Zhouyang smiled and replied, "I've been lying down for a long time. Let's go out and stretch our muscles."
"Miss Lingzhou, please be safe."
Ling Zhouyang waved her hand, "Don't worry."

Ling Zhouyang looked at the streets of Hexian County where people were coming and going, and felt that it was quite lively here, but she just didn't find Qian Zhao, otherwise she would definitely have brought him for a stroll.
She walked slowly and leisurely on the street. There were many food stalls on the street. She would buy some delicious food and eat while shopping.
After walking around for a while, she tasted most of the snacks on the street. She touched her round belly and planned to go back to the inn.
As she was getting ready to leave, she was thinking about whether to buy some and give them a try? They are all busy every day, and they must have never eaten Hexian snacks.
With this thought in mind, Ling Zhouyang began to wander around various food stalls and bought a bunch of snacks.
Ling Zhouyang was carrying snacks and humming a song as she headed towards the post house.
As she passed an alley, she took a casual look and saw a strange person.
Judging from the figure, he should be a man wearing lake blue clothes, holding an umbrella and standing outside the door of a house in the alley. In front of the house stood an old man, talking non-stop.
Ling Zhouyang was very puzzled. It was so late at night and it wasn't raining. Why should I use an umbrella?
Although she felt strange, she was not a troublesome person, but just as she was about to lift her feet and leave, the man holding the umbrella glanced at her as if he was aware of it.
Ling Zhouyang was stunned and the snack in her hand fell to the ground.
The moment the man holding the umbrella saw her, he turned around and ran away.
Ling Zhouyang didn't think too much and chased after him, shouting as she chased.
"Gu Yun!"

On the other side, Ning Yuanzhou's first ten-day temptation broke out, Ren Ruyi cut his wrist to feed blood, and Li Tongguang gave Sha Xixi the elixir Renewal Pill.
Qian Zhao took his pulse and said, "The pulse is stable and we can send him back."
Everyone who was worried at first breathed a sigh of relief.
It was already very late when they took Ning Yuanzhou back.
Ning Yuanzhou was lying in the room, Yuan Lu, Ren Ruyi and Yang Ying were all inside.
Qian Zhao and Yu Shisan stood at the door.
Yu Shisan: "Why don't you ask Lingzhou Beauty to come and have a look? Maybe she can do something about it."
Qian Zhao shook his head, "His pulse has stabilized and he is not in a hurry. A Yang has rested."
Qian Zhao had just been to Ling Zhouyang's room. The door was closed and the lights were out. He must have rested.
Yu Shisan nodded, "Yes, let's show Lao Ning tomorrow the beauty of Lingzhou."
Early the next morning, Ning Yuanzhou woke up, Qian Zhao took his pulse and told everyone that he was fine.
The big stone weighing on Ren Ruyi's heart finally fell. She was afraid that she would cry in front of Ning Yuanzhou, so she left the room.
Upon seeing this, Yu Shisan glanced at Ning Yuanzhou and followed him out of the room.
Seeing that Ning Yuanzhou looked better than yesterday, Yang Ying and Du Changshi stayed with him for a while and then left.
Only Ning Yuanzhou, Qian Zhao and Yuan Lu were left in the room.
Ning Yuanzhou leaned against the bed, his voice still a little weak, "Send someone to keep an eye on the Anguo people. The behavior of these men in black is too strange. Li Tongguang will investigate, and you must investigate too."
Yuanlu squatted beside the bed and nodded repeatedly, "Yeah."
Qian Zhao sat beside the bed and said calmly: "Don't worry, Sun Lang has already brought someone there."
Ning Yuanzhou nodded lightly, "That's good. There is also a post house, and more people should be sent to keep an eye on it to prevent the men in black from coming again at night. There must also be a thorough investigation in Hexian County. I don't believe that these men in black are innocent. It grew for no reason.”
"Also, go to Jinsha Tower and ask about Jin Meiniang."
Yuan Lu: "Brother Thirteen from Jinsha Tower has given me a letter, don't worry."
Ning Yuanzhou: "That's good. If it's business, I believe Jin Meiniang won't embarrass him."
Qian Zhao and Yuan Lu both nodded.
When the three of them were about to say something more, a guard from the Six Paths Hall came in.
Qian Zhao asked: "What's the matter?"
Now that Ning Yuanzhou is still weak, many things have to be left to him.
The guard replied: "Miss Lingzhou went out last night and didn't come back all night."
Qian Zhao's heart skipped a beat, "She didn't come home all night? When did she go out?"
"She probably went out at Xu Shizheng. She said she had been lying down for a long time and wanted to go out for some exercise."
Qian Zhao nodded, "You go down first."
After the guards retreated, Qian Zhao remained silent. Yuan Lu looked at Ning Yuanzhou cautiously, and then turned to look at Qian Zhao.
Yuan Lu consoled her: "Brother Qian, Sister Lingzhou is so powerful, she will be fine. Maybe she just walked far away and is rushing back now."
In Yuan Lu's heart, Ling Zhouyang was very powerful. He could make poison and use hidden weapons. Although he no longer had any martial arts skills, he was also very powerful in light kung fu, and escaping was not a problem.
"Well, she was a bad person after all, so she will be fine." Ning Yuanzhou also comforted her.
Although Qian Zhao was impatient, he also understood the current situation. Ning Yuanzhou was injured and he was temporarily responsible for handling matters in the mission. He could not mess up the situation.
Qian Zhao still had a cold face, "Well, you have a good rest and don't worry about other things."
After saying that, he and Yuan Lu helped Ning Yuanzhou lie down, and then left the room.
In the yard, Qian Zhao and Yuan Lu walked together.
Yuan Lu: "Brother Qian, if you are worried, then I will take someone out to look for him."
Qian Zhao objected, "No, Sun Lang just brought a group of people out. The post house needs protection, and there can't be any less people."
Yuanlu was not allowed to take people out, firstly because he was afraid of not having enough manpower, and secondly because Yuanlu's body had just experienced a big battle last night, and Yuanlu could no longer be tired.
Moreover, he will arrange for people to conduct investigations in Hexian County later, so Yuanlu does not need to go.
Yuan Lu muttered in a low voice: "Then I'm afraid you'll be worried, but I think Sister Lingzhou will be fine."
Yu Shisan jumped out from the side, "What are you talking about? Lao Ning is resting?"
Yuan Lu turned to look at Yu Shisan who suddenly appeared and replied: "Brother Shisan, we are talking about sister Lingzhou not returning home all night."
Yu Shisan was shocked, "Lingzhou Beauty didn't come back all night? Why don't you send someone out to look for her right away?"
Yuan Lu replied: "Brother Qian said no, the mission cannot be short of people at this time."
Yu Shisan bumped into Qian Zhao and said, "Then let me go find him. You say no, but you don't know how worried you are."
Qian Zhao was silent for a moment and then nodded, "Okay, go to the restaurant and find her. She likes drinking, maybe she drank too much."
"Okay, you can just wait and see. I'll go check out the restaurants and inns in He County." As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Shisan walked out.
