The next morning.
The rising sun in the sky drives away the night, and the golden sunshine fills the earth.
In the dark room, the heavy curtains blocked the sunlight outside the window. Only a little sunlight squeezed into the room through the gaps between the curtains and fell on the floor in the room, reflecting spots of light.
“Chirping…”
The birds that got up early to look for food are back, and the community is filled with the sound of birdsong.
Lying in bed, Lin Li was awakened by the sound of birdsong outside the window. He opened his eyes and turned his head to look towards the window.
The weather is very good today. If you have travel plans, this weather will make you happy.
Lin Li lifted up the quilt covering his body and slowly flew up. He came to the window and stretched out his hand to open the curtains, letting the morning sun outside the window flow into the room.
There are many people traveling during the holidays. In the community where Lin Li lives, many residents have gone traveling.
Usually at this time, there are many children chasing and playing together downstairs in the morning. Now these children are taken out by their parents to travel, and the community seems a little deserted.
"Washing..."
There was a sound of water running in the bathroom. When Lin Li walked out of the bathroom after washing, the mobile phone in his pocket rang.
As Lin Li walked towards the kitchen, he took out his mobile phone from his pocket and checked it.
Open the social software, and a stranger applies to be added as a friend.
"Hello, my name is Luda, Liu Jialin's colleague..."
Lin Li read the note and knew that the other person was the investigator he wanted to help the day after tomorrow, so he reached out and clicked on the screen to apply for the other person's friend.
Putting away his cell phone, Lin Li walked into the kitchen and opened the refrigerator, preparing to cook a pot of noodles for breakfast.
…………
The spiritual world, Dongwu City.
Qin Muqing, who has an ordinary appearance and a graceful figure, is drying clothes in the yard at the moment.
The early morning sun fell on Qin Muqing's body, coating her fair and delicate skin with a layer of gold.
"Huh..."
A gust of wind blew in the yard, making Qin Muqing's hair messy, and at the same time blowing her clothes tightly against her body , showing off your curvy figure.
"It's such a strong wind~"
Qin Muqing muttered, raising her hand to straighten her hair that was messed up by the wind.
The birds that made their homes on the trees in the courtyard disappeared somewhere, making the courtyard a little quiet today, which Qin Muqing was not used to.
"Dang Dang Dang."
A knock on the door suddenly sounded.
Qin Muqing, who had dried her clothes, was about to take the washbasin back indoors when she heard a sudden knock on the door. She stopped and looked towards the door.
“Who is it!”
Qin Muqing came to the door and asked the person who knocked at the door warily.
"Miss Qin, it's me." The person outside the door answered.
Qin Muqing heard a familiar voice and knew that the person standing outside the door was an agent of the Yamen, so she quickly reached out and opened the door.
"Good morning." The detective in gray greeted Qin Muqing with a smile.
"Good morning." Qin Muqing responded, and then asked with some confusion, "Sir, what can I do for you?"
"Is your master at home?"
"He has gone out."
The gray-clothed detective secretly thought that Lin Li is really a busy man, and then he took out a bulging bag from his pocket. envelope, and said with a smile, "You can take some money here and give it to your master later."
"Eh?!!!" Qin Muqing was stunned for a second after hearing this, and did not reach out to take it rashly. Envelopes containing money.
Seeing Qin Muqing's appearance, the gray-clothed detective explained, "This time those criminal thieves were arrested. Some of the adults above were very happy. They felt that the bounty was a bit small, so they made up some more."
"It turns out it's a bounty!" Qin Muqing suddenly realized, reached out to take the envelope containing the money, and then thanked the other party.
"The news about the arrest of those criminal thieves has spread. In the future, the security in this area should be very good. You don't have to worry too much when you go out..." The gray-clothed detective mentioned this to Qin Muqing before leaving. Mouth.
"Good public order is a good thing. I hope it can last longer... This time Lin Li went out and he didn't know when he would be back." Qin Muqing muttered and closed the big iron door.
Back indoors, she hid the envelope containing the money and prepared breakfast.
Now that he has plenty of money, Qin Muqing's breakfast is no longer soup and water.
After a satisfying breakfast of meat and vegetables, Qin Muqing washed the dishes, picked up the vegetable basket, and prepared to go to the grocery store to buy some oil, salt, sauce and vinegar.
"Hiss..."
Suddenly, a heartbreaking pain spread throughout his body, causing Qin Muqing to take a breath.
The vegetable basket in her hand fell to the ground, and Qin Muqing walked towards the living room, covering her heart.
The body shook, and with a bang, Qin Muqing fell onto the sofa.
"Hiss..."
He was breathing rapidly, and beads of sweat quickly appeared on his smooth forehead, soaking the hair on his forehead.
Lying on the sofa, Qin Muqing gritted her teeth and persisted, resisting the invasion of pain.
Time passed, and Qin Muqing, who was suffering from pain, felt that time now passed very slowly.
In just a few minutes, Qin Muqing felt like he had spent a whole year.
The severe pain came suddenly and disappeared suddenly.
When he no longer felt severe pain in his heart, Qin Muqing panted heavily, and his plump chest rose and fell rapidly.
After resting for half an hour, Qin Muqing finally recovered from the pain.
Sitting up with her left hand on the sofa, Qin Muqing looked at the coffee table in front of her with a haggard expression. She picked up the kettle, poured herself a cup of tea, took a few sips, put down the tea cup, and murmured to herself. .
“This time the pain lasts longer, how long can I hold on?”
In the quiet living room, Qin Muqing sat motionless on the sofa, staring blankly at the ceiling, wondering what she was thinking.
…………
A three-story-high, more than 20-meter-long luxury airship came from the sky, flying quickly above the clouds, towards where Dongwu City is located. The direction flew away.
The invisible barrier covers the entire spaceship, so that people standing on the deck of the spaceship will not be disturbed by the strong wind at an altitude of 10,000 meters.
A gray-haired old man held onto the railing and looked into the distance with bright eyes.
The heavily armed guard came to the deck, looked around, found the old man's position, and walked over quickly.
"Steward Qin." The armed guard greeted respectfully.
"How long will it take for us to arrive at Dongwu City?" asked the gray-haired Butler Qin.
"We can arrive at noon today." The heavily armed guard replied.
“Can’t we go faster?” said the gray-haired Butler Qin.
"The flying boat is moving at full speed now," said the heavily armed guard. "Alas..." The gray-haired Butler Qin sighed, then he reached out and took out a small white porcelain bottle containing medicine from his arms, muttering to himself.
"The young lady's physical condition is not optimistic. We have to find her as soon as possible."
Hearing this, the heavily armed guard couldn't help but sigh, and then he spoke Said, "According to the clues we have now, Xiao "Miss, she should be in Dongwu City at the moment and has not gone to other cities."
The gray-haired steward Qin said, "Miss, she doesn't want to be found by us. We must leave Dongwu City before she goes to other cities this time." Find her before the place ”
This time, a group of people went out to track down the eldest lady who had run away from home. After traveling tens of thousands of miles, they finally determined the whereabouts of the eldest lady.
"I hope they can successfully find the eldest lady in Dongwu City this time..." The heavily armed guard nodded and muttered to himself.
Then, the two people stopped talking and looked at the endless white clouds below, waiting for the flying boat to arrive in Dongwu City.
…………
Dongwu City.
Qin Muqing was tortured by severe pain at home, and it took a while before she recovered.
She felt that her body could move freely, so she carried the vegetable basket and went out.
The oil, salt, sauce and vinegar at home have been used up. If I don’t go out to buy some, I won’t be able to cook at noon.
In a grocery store covering an area of at least 200 square meters, Qin Muqing, who looked a little haggard, was holding a vegetable basket in his hand and standing in front of the shelves to choose oil, salt, sauce and vinegar.
“Girl, although this soy sauce has just been launched, it tastes very good and is widely praised by buyers. I strongly recommend you to buy it back and try it.” The grocery store manager recommended with a smile.
"Is there a discount for buying two bottles of soy sauce?" Qin Muqing, who has experienced hard times, now has a clear understanding of money and is careful when buying things.
"Yes, buy two bottles and get a 10% discount." The grocery store manager said.
"Okay, then I'll buy two bottles." Qin Muqing nodded immediately when she saw the discount.
After a while, Qin Muqing walked out of the grocery store carrying a vegetable basket filled with oil, salt, sauce and vinegar.
"Before I go back, I will go to the butcher shop to buy two more pounds of meat..."
Qin Muqing thought in her mind that just as she was walking towards the butcher shop, a luxurious flying boat flew into the majestic Dongwu City, attracting the attention of many residents in the city.
“Look, there is a flying boat.”
“What a big flying boat!”
“It’s not bad! Compared with the Lord of the City’s flying boat, it’s much smaller. "
"The flying boat was given by your Majesty, so it's not easy to compare!"
Passers-by on the street raised their heads and looked at the sky, talking about it.
For ordinary people, owning a spaceship of their own can only be realized in dreams.
Although the flying boat flying slowly in the sky is not as good as the city lord's flying boat, a flying boat of this size is not something ordinary people can own.
Some powerful people in Dongwu City have much higher vision than ordinary people. When these people saw the flying boat in the sky, they all showed surprised expressions on their faces.
Then, they immediately sent their men to find out who the big shots came to Dongwu City today.
Among the people on the ground, Qin Muqing, who was carrying a vegetable basket, looked at the flying boat in the sky and felt that it looked familiar.
"Okay, everyone, stop looking and move forward quickly. Don't block the road all the time." The police officer patrolling the street shouted to the passers-by who looked up at the flying boat.
After a while, the crowd on the road stopped and blocked the road. If the road was not cleared, the patrolling police officers would be criticized when they turned around.
Qin Muqing, who was carrying a vegetable basket, was interrupted from her thoughts and followed the re-flowing crowd into the distance.
With the efforts of patrolling police officers, the congested road became smooth again.
Carrying a vegetable basket, Qin Muqing came to the butcher shop where she bought meat. Coincidentally, she met an acquaintance here.
"Miss Qin." Sister Zhang, who sells box lunches, shouted to Qin Muqing.
"Sister Zhang, you come here to buy meat too!" Qin Muqing responded with a smile.
The two walked together, chatting and laughing. After coming out of the butcher shop, they went to a store selling discounted goods.
…………
In the vast square, a luxurious flying boat descended from the sky and landed steadily.
Steward Qin and the heavily armed guards disembarked from the flying boat, and the steward of the City Lord's Mansion who had been waiting here came forward with his people.
"Steward Qin has come a long way, we have had a hard time on the road..."
Steward Qin asked the middle-aged man in front of him, "Steward Li, is the Lord of the City at home now?"
"The city lord has gone out of the city for inspection and will not come back until evening." Butler Li said.
"That's it! Then I'll visit you tomorrow morning." Butler Qin said with a smile.
The two groups of people met, exchanged a few words, and Butler Li took the Qin family who had come from afar to a nearby restaurant.
On the way to the restaurant, Butler Li asked curiously, "Steward Qin, how long will you stay in Dongwu City this time?"
"We have to wait for business matters to be settled. I won’t leave until I’m ready, I’m not sure how long it will take,” Butler Qin said.
“Oh.” Butler Li’s eyes flickered when he heard this, and then he said with a smile, “If you encounter some problems that are difficult to deal with, just ask someone to come and tell me, and I will arrange for someone to help. You solve it.”
"That would be too troublesome for you." Butler Qin said.
"Don't be polite to me..." Butler Li said with a smile.
The group of people chatted and soon arrived at the restaurant where they were eating.
…………
The City Lord’s Mansion.
"Tap, step, step..."
There was a sound of footsteps in the deep corridor, and a tall figure walked quickly.
The city lord’s wife, Zhao Xin, is graceful and elegant. She is sitting in the pavilion in the garden, admiring the flowers that were just planted.
Butterflies of different colors danced among the flowers, having a great time, echoing with the flowers of different colors, like a beautiful picture.
Suddenly, a figure burst into the garden furiously. The butterflies dancing in the flowers fled in shock, and the beautiful picture was instantly shattered.
Zhao Xin looked at her daughter running towards her and said angrily, "I've told you several times, walk slower and don't run in such a hurry."
Li Qian came to the pavilion and looked at her carelessly. He sat down on the stone bench, reached out to pick up the cakes on the table, put it into his mouth, took a sip of tea, and said with a smile, "I know, I'll walk slower next time."
Zhao Xin saw her daughter like this He said, nodded slightly, and then asked.
"Why did you come back so early today? Don't you have lunch at Xinru's place?"
Li Qian, who had just returned from Zhu Xinru's house, replied with a smile, "Xinru is going I left early to check the store’s accounts.”
"That's it! Then I'll have someone prepare lunch for you..." Zhao Xin said.
"No, I've eaten outside." Li Qian shook her head, and then asked one thing, "On the way back, I saw a luxurious flying boat. Whose does it belong to?"< br>
"The Qin family in the imperial capital." Zhao Xin said.
"What are they doing here?" Li Qian asked.
"I heard from your father that they came to us to find the eldest daughter of the Qin family who ran away from home." Zhao Xin said.
