However, food was limited, and they had to go out to beg frequently, so the people inside were mixed and the flow of people was common. If someone infected with smallpox was placed there, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"yes."

Qianbi also knew the seriousness of the matter. She did not dare to delay and turned around and left.

Madam Lu sneered: "She can't get out if she doesn't know how to open the mechanism. Don't waste your energy."

Gu Yunran smiled faintly: "She doesn't know, but you, old lady, do know."

Gu Yunran said this and winked at Qianbi. Qianbi took out the sword from her waist and placed it on Madam Lu's neck: "Open the door!"

"I……"

Before she could even utter the word "I don't want to", the sharp sword had already cut through Madam Lu's neck.

Madam Lu felt a sharp pain and her face turned pale with fear. Qianbi counted: "One..."

After just one count, Mrs. Lu began to beg for mercy.

"Don't kill me, I'll go open the door."

As she spoke, she walked tremblingly to an oil lamp and slowly turned it, turning it three times to the left and three times to the right.

With a loud bang, the stone door slowly opened.

Gu Yunran took the two girls out. The smell inside was really making her feel uncomfortable, and she didn't want to stay any longer.

Old Madam Lu also wanted to come up to get some fresh air, but was kicked down by Qianbi.

“Ouch!”

There was a cry of pain from inside, and the sound of something rolling down the stairs.

"Let's go find Ah Huang."

Ah Huang was a stray dog ​​she picked up. Gu Yunran couldn't bear to see it wandering around anymore, so she adopted it. It was very sensible and caring, and very likable.

Whenever someone in the mansion bullied her, Ah Huang would go up and bite him.

This time when she came back, she wanted to take Ah Huang away.

"Miss, will the master find this place?" Ruizhu asked.

"meeting."

She had sprinkled silver powder on the ground, and Mu Qianchen would definitely find the secret room based on the marks she left.

Gu Yunran brought Ruizhu back to the gate of Fangxingyuan. She tried to call Ah Huang a few times, but got no response.

"Miss, there it is."
