After Eleven left through the window, Xiao Ruyu lay on the bed, her heart beating wildly.

I don’t know whether Eleven’s trip was smooth or not.

Once they get in touch with the master and get evidence of the cult, they can wipe it out in one fell swoop!

Just when I was feeling uneasy, the door was suddenly pushed open.

Xiao Ruyu thought it was Eleven who came back and quickly sat up.

But when she saw who was coming, she panicked.

Wang Xiao walked in front of Master Liu, holding a candle in his hand, and the light illuminated the room.

Mr. Liu glanced around the room gloomily and found that Eleven was not there, and he became suspicious.

"Where's your brother?"

Xiao Ruyu stammered and couldn't say anything. Master Liu must have become suspicious of them.

If I lie now, and our statements don't match when Eleven comes back, all my efforts will be wasted!

So she simply chose to shut up and avoid Mr. Liu's interrogative gaze.

"Brother...I don't know..."

She rubbed her eyes and pretended to have just woken up.

Master Liu gave Wang Xiao a look, and he immediately understood and took out a bundle of ropes from behind.

Wang Xiao approached Xiao Ruyu step by step, with a look of hostility on his face.

"Since you don't know, I'll let you go when your brother comes back. If he doesn't come back..."

He laughed sneeringly, with a dark look in his eyes.

Xiao Ruyu held the spiritual power in her hand, thought for half a second, and then let it go.

Just wait for Eleven to come back, and then the two of them will just have to agree on their confession.

Young General Wang tied up Xiao Ruyu and waited for Eleven to come back with Master Liu.

More than an hour later, there was a rustling noise between the windows.

Mr. Liu gave Wang Xiao a look, and Wang Xiao immediately squatted under the window.

[Eleven, be careful! There is someone under the window. ]

Xiao Ruyu quickly spoke out in her heart.

Eleven received her words, followed her lead, and swaggered in through the door.

Mr. Liu did not expect him to come in from the door, and stared at him closely with narrowed eyes.

"What are you doing out here at this late hour?"

Eleven's gaze fell on the tied-up Xiao Ruyu, and his fists clenched slightly.

The room fell into silence, so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Just when Mr. Liu was about to lose his patience, Eleven suddenly knelt down.

"Master Liu, tonight is my father's seventh day. I just went out to burn some paper money for him."

"He was alone and helpless when he was alive. As a son, I can only show my filial piety to him after his death."

Mr. Liu looked at Eleven with doubt, obviously not believing it.

Wang Xiao still felt resentful about the kick during the day, so he was the first to speak out.

"Master, I think these two kids are cunning. You can't believe what they say so easily."

"In my opinion, we should just get rid of them."

He made a gesture of wiping his neck.

"Solve it, solve it, you know how to solve it!"

Master Liu went up and kicked him again. Wang Xiao leaned back at a loss, not daring to say anything more.

Eleven had long anticipated that the two would not easily believe his words and made preparations in advance.

"If you don't believe me, come with me and take a look. The paper money is still at the intersection."

Master Liu picked up Xiao Ruyu and slowly stood up.

"Then let's go together."

Arriving at a crossroads not far from the cloth shop, Eleven pointed at a basin on the side of the road.

There were indeed some scraps of paper and faintly visible flames inside.

Wang Xiao stretched out his hand to explore, then retracted his hand with a "ah".

"It's hot, sir."

Master Liu made a "tsk" sound and slapped Wang Xiao on the head.

"You idiot, untie the rope for the little kid."

Xiao Ruyu was released and lowered her head in grievance.

When Mr. Liu saw her like this, his heart melted and he hurried to coax her.

"Oh, it's all Wang Xiao's fault for being that idiot and misunderstanding the little kid."

Xiao Ruyu still kept her head down and said nothing, tears as big as beans falling like broken strings.

"Okay, stop crying. I get annoyed when you cry."

Mr. Liu kept cursing, but his attitude towards the two men became much softer.

"I'd like to take you out to play in a few days."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Ruyu became excited. She raised her head and looked at Master Liu with tearful eyes.

In a few days? Could it be the big event that the contact person mentioned?

She nodded and wiped away her tears.

"Can we really go out and play now?"

Xiao Ruyu clapped her hands and pretended to be excited.

Mr. Liu promised her that he would take her out to play in three days.

Only when Eleven took her back to her room to rest did Xiao Ruyu finally breathe a sigh of relief.

【Eleven, have you passed the message on? 】

Eleven nodded gently, "It's all Eleven's fault for coming too late. The little princess suffered."

There was visible guilt on his face and his eyes were a little red.

He gently rubbed the place where Xiao Ruyu was tied, which already had a red mark.

[It's okay, it's just that the rope is a little rough.

But Eleven, you are really smart. You actually prepared things in advance. 】

Eleven shook his head, blew out the candle, and coaxed her to sleep.

"It's getting late, little princess, you should rest."

…

The next day, government officials were already lurking in various places in the city.

Doctor Yang looked at the news in his hands and learned that the cult members were already running around the city, contacting other cult members.

The officers and soldiers recorded the locations of all the cult members and reported them back to Doctor Yang one by one.

Looking at the huge number of cults, the Governor of Jiangnan looked extremely embarrassed.

“I didn’t expect this cult to have grown to such a scale.”

He touched the densely packed marks on the map, furious.

"Now that we have located these people, we might as well take this opportunity to capture them all in one fell swoop."

Doctor Yang shook his head, indicating that it was not the right time.

"In a few days, they will make a major move, and we can just close the net then."

On the other side, Xiao Ruyu was woken up by Wang Xiao early in the morning.

After being kicked twice by Master Liu, he was obviously much more obedient and spoke in a gentle tone.

"The master said that you should pack up as soon as possible and leave this morning."

Xiao Ruyu's heart moved and he quickly agreed.

After Wang Xiao left, Xiao Ruyu asked Eleven to prepare to close the net.

[Eleven, this time we are probably going to the cult's lair. No matter what happens, you must first protect your own safety.]

Eleven hesitated for two seconds and nodded.

At noon, Mr. Liu took a few people out of the city and the carriage headed southwest.

Xiao Ruyu didn't know where they were going. Just when she was about to lift the curtain of the carriage to check, she found that the curtain was sealed.

[The members of this evil cult are so cautious. It seems that today's action will inevitably be dangerous.]

Xiao Ruyu muttered to himself, carefully memorizing the route of action in his mind.

At the same time, after the few people left the city, the officers and soldiers who were monitoring them immediately went back to report to Doctor Yang.

"Gather the men and follow them."

Doctor Yang looked solemn and gave the order.

As soon as the carriage moved away, the soldiers followed.

Half an hour later, the carriage slowly stopped.

Xiao Ruyu got out of the car and was amazed by the scene in front of her.
