When Lin Yinan opened her eyes, she had become a fifteen-year-old girl in ancient times. Before she could even react, she encountered a barbarian invasion and a massacre.
Her mother was strug...
Luo Shouxin shuddered, quickly raised his sleeve to wipe the sweat from his forehead, and gave the head steward an awkward smile.
He suspected that his third sister-in-law was settling a personal score while on official business!
Yun Mo thought she was really unwell, and after a moment of surprise, he quickly stepped forward to help her, bowing and scraping as he said, "Master, please be careful, this way."
When they reached the back of the third granary, Lin Yinan stopped, released Yun Mo's hand, and a flying tiger claw appeared in his palm.
“Anan, you…”
Yun Mo was confused by his concern, but fortunately he reacted quickly. He took the grappling hook from Lin Yinan's hand, aimed it at the window at the highest point of the granary, and swung it forcefully. The grappling hook landed firmly on the window. He took two steps up, removed the crossbeam from the window, threw it onto the roof, and then gestured to Lin Yinan on the ground.
The window wasn't big, but it couldn't fit two people at the same time. Yun Mo leaped up and landed on the roof of the granary.
Lin Yinan wrapped her hands around the rope, used her feet for leverage, and Yun Mo pulled her up with a burst of energy.
"Anan, can you come in?"
Lin Yinan sat on the windowsill, took out a flashlight and looked inside. Having made up her mind, she put the flashlight away and said softly, "Yes."
She was wearing a bulky muscle suit and had a big belly. She first put her feet in, then took out a grappling hook from her space and secured it. Holding the rope with one hand and shining a flashlight with the other, she quickly stood on the pile of grain.
Before Yunmo could come down, she tied the rope under her armpits and placed her hands on the grain sacks.
Yun Mo, who had just stepped down from the window, saw by the dim light of the tinderbox that a whole granary of grain had vanished into thin air in the blink of an eye.
Startled, he didn't dare linger and quickly returned to the window to peek outside. Just then, a patrol passed by, and he swiftly blew out the tinderbox and ducked inside.
Upon seeing this, Lin Yinan, who was climbing upwards, quickly turned off her flashlight and put it into her spatial storage.
After a while, Yun Mo returned to the window, pulled Lin Yinan up, carefully put her back on the ground, and then gently landed himself, retracting his tiger claws.
Practice makes perfect, and when they were harvesting the second granary, the two of them were much faster.
Just as they were preparing to move towards the third granary, a sudden commotion broke out outside the gate.
The patrol team, carrying torches, ran quickly towards the gate. The two exchanged a knowing glance; it seemed the third granary would not be harvested.
Lin Yinan produced a small time bomb, quickly set the timer, and stuffed the bomb into Yun Mo's hand.
"You throw this thing into the third granary."
Yun Mo didn't ask any questions. He lightly stepped forward and skillfully threw the time bomb through the middle of the window frame.
"Great job!" Lin Yunnan gave him a thumbs up.
Guards were already approaching from outside the gate. Without thinking, Yun Mo picked up Lin Yinan and ran quickly toward the carriage.
The head steward, who was watching the guards move grain in the last granary, heard the commotion and hurriedly came out to check. Hearing the noise coming from the main gate, he quickly called everyone out.
"Manager Luo, there's been a bit of a situation outside, so we'll have to postpone the installation today."
Only three carriages were loaded; two more were left unloaded. Luo Shouxin naturally objected, saying, "Steward, look, there are still two carriages that haven't been loaded."
"We can't install it today. I'll refund your money later. Something happened at the entrance, so you should go back first."
The head steward was adamant and ordered the guards to drive Luo Shouxin and his men out.
As if remembering something, he added, "By the way, where's your boss? Is he still in the outhouse?"
Yun Mo lifted the curtain and nodded slightly to Luo Shouxin.
He gave the head steward a fawning smile and said, "Head steward, our boss ate something wrong and his legs are a little weak from squatting."
Everyone looked over at the sound and saw the fat boss lying on Yun Mo's lap, weakly groaning "Ouch, ouch."
"Master Steward, we'll head back now."
Luo Shouxin bowed to the head steward, and with a wave of his hand, the guards boarded the carriage.
As they passed the gate, a group of about twenty men, armed with swords, were arguing with the guards. The head steward ordered the guards to let them pass, and the group did not stop them.
Having successfully exited the gate, Lin Yinan scrambled up from Yun Mo's lap and sat up straight, then said to the guards driving the carriage outside, "Quick! Get out of here as fast as you can!"
"What did you tell me to throw into the third granary?" Yun Mo asked curiously.
Lin Yinan raised an eyebrow and glanced at him sideways, saying coldly, "That's what turned the granary into the ground."
Yun Mo's pupils contracted sharply. The thing in his hand was icy cold and smaller than his palm, yet it had such great power. However, he never questioned what Lin Yinan said.
Luo Shouxin, who was standing nearby, unaware of their conversation, asked, "Do you think my second brother and the others killed Fan Xueli?"
After a moment of contemplation, Yun Mo said, "They should have succeeded by now."
"How do you know that?"
“Those people outside the gate just now were probably members of the Fan clan, here to vie for control of the granary,” Yun Mo said.
"If that's really the case, that would be great!" Although Luo Shouxin was busy traveling around every day, he naturally knew about Fan Xueli's threats against them.
Seeing Lin Yinan staring blankly into space, Yun Mo asked, "Yinan, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Lin Yinan shook her head and began to count down, "Five, four, three, two, one!"
No sooner had she finished speaking than a deafening roar came from the direction of the Fan family's granary behind her, and the ground trembled.
The horses pulling the cart were startled and ran away.
"Master, the earth is shaking!" The guard driving the carriage tried his best to control the reins.
"No, don't panic, hold the reins tight."
As they approached the city, Yun Mo parted ways with Luo Shouxin and the others. Luo Shouxin and the others went to another secluded courtyard in the west of the city, as the warehouse that had previously been used to store food and supplies was no longer suitable.
Lin Yinan and Yun Mo ate something outside before returning home. As soon as they stepped into the Yun residence, they were stopped by the steward.
"Third Master Yun, the Master is waiting for you in the study."
Yun Mo took Lin Yinan's hand and headed towards the study. The butler hesitated to speak, but ultimately said nothing. How could Third Master Yun be dragging a man's hand and running towards the study? What kind of behavior was that?
Two servants were guarding outside the study. When they saw Yun Mo arrive, they quickly stepped forward to report. Yun Xiangdong opened the door and invited him in.
The two entered the study, where, apart from Yunye and Yunming, the three adult sons of the second branch of the Yun family were already sitting.
Yunye nodded almost imperceptibly to the two of them.
"Who is he? Why are just anyone being brought into the manor?"
Yun Zhenchuan's face was gloomy, and his eyes were cold and sharp as he stared at the person Yun Mo was holding.
Lin Yinan then realized what was happening, quickly pulled off the beard on her face, took out a makeup remover wipe from her sleeve, and wiped the makeup off her face.
"It's you!" Yun Zhenchuan was taken aback, his facial muscles twitching involuntarily, his tone filled with anger, "How can a woman dress like this?"
Lin Yinan sat down on a chair next to Yunye, wiped her face, and then carefully wiped her hands.
"I dressed like this just so it would be easier to go out," she said casually.
