The driver glanced at the rearview mirror and Mrs. Duan was rarely panicked.
It's actually not that difficult to understand. .
These top families in the capital are all interconnected, and Old Lady Duan has only met the head of the Ren family.
Now seeing the Ren family attacking Madam Yang, it is still unknown how Madam Yang had offended the Ren family. A cautious person like Mrs. Duan would never dare to get involved in this matter at this time.
As for the magic bag, it had always been with Madam Yang.
Old Madam Duan didn't dare to take the brocade bag for herself, so she threw it to Madam Yang and that was the end of the matter.
The driver also knew what Old Mrs. Duan was thinking. He looked at Mrs. Yang lying on the ground again, stepped on the accelerator, and left without daring to stay for a moment.
The car sped away.
In the dark corner, there was an unconscious person lying.
There are few pedestrians in this place. Occasionally a car passes by, but some drivers don't even notice that there is a person lying on the ground.
...
...
Some drivers saw it, but were actually afraid of causing trouble, so they pretended not to see it and simply stepped on the accelerator and left.

at the same time.
Qingyun Temple, in a mountain range somewhere in the capital.
The young Taoist priest wore a loose green robe and carried a lantern to the back mountain range.
The night was cold and windy. The young Taoist priest stood on the jagged rocks in his clothes, looking up, and said in a clear voice, "Uncle Master, the Grand Master wants you to go back."
He lifted the lantern upwards.
The back hill was not as brightly lit as the temple, but with the light from the temple, she could vaguely see a dark figure standing on the edge of the cliff. She looked up at a spot on the cliff and reached out to gather her black cloak. "Here they come."
Maybe it's because he's been in the spotlight for too long, his voice is a little hoarse and grainy.
She turned around, revealing a pair of clear eyes, and walked slowly down.
The light not far away made her face look warm.
It's Yanghua.
The young Taoist's eyes lit up, and he smiled, "Uncle Master, Uncle Master, when are you leaving this time?"
"We'll leave in two days." Yang Hua covered her cloak with both hands and walked ahead along the mountain path. The light shone through the gaps in the woods, casting mottled shadows of the trees.
Yang Hua knew that the snow lotus she had placed at the Yang family had been discovered.
This thing was a time bomb in the Yang family. Yang Hua didn't dare to leave it in the Yang family, so she took the flowerpot directly to Qingyun Temple.
However, this flower seedling has just sprouted, so Yang Hua has to stay for two days to allow the seedling to adapt to the environment here.
She didn't dare stay any longer.
The few people who came to the Yang family that day were not very strong, and Yang Hua also left something for Madam Yang and Yang Lai. There are rules in the ancient martial arts world, and one cannot attack ordinary people at will.
But Yang Hua was still a little worried.
After all, she shouldn't have returned to the capital.
"Ah? So fast?" The young Taoist priest was a little disappointed when he heard that.
Yang Hua glanced at him and smiled: "If you study hard with your master, you will be able to go down the mountain to practice soon."
As they were talking, they arrived at the Taoist temple.
There are many Taoists in the Taoist temple, but they are basically in the front yard. The back yard is very quiet. Unless there is an important matter, few people from the front yard dare to come to the back yard.
Wei Mingzi was sitting on a stone table, holding a wine gourd in one hand and a chess piece in the other, playing chess with himself.
Yang Hua opened the door and walked in, saying in a very respectful voice, "Master."
Wei Mingzi raised his head casually and said, "Good boy, come over and play chess. You take the black piece."
Yang Hua sat silently opposite Wei Mingzi.
Her chess skills were actually not very good, and could only be considered mediocre. After only five moves, she was forced into a dead end by Wei Mingzi.
Wei Mingzi put down the white piece in his hand and looked up, "Not bad, it has improved a little bit, much better than Xiao Yinzi."
Xiao Yinzi is the little Taoist priest just now.
Bad chess player.
Yang Hua silently put down the chess piece. Although she had been influenced by Meng Fu and the village chief since she was a child, she actually did not learn the essence. She only raised her head faintly: "Master, you think you are praising my chess skills for getting better, but in fact you are not."
Wei Mingzi: "..."
"Master, can I teach my sister-in-law some self-defense?" Yang Hua raised her head and looked at Wei Mingzi, "Just teach her a few moves."
Mimiko: "...Are you sure it's just a few moves?"
"I won't take anyone's life lightly," Yang Hua pointed at the chessboard, "My recent whereabouts seem to have been exposed. If they come looking for me, my sister-in-law and brother will also be implicated by me."
"Be careful to restrain yourself," Wei Mingzi hummed, not paying much attention to Yang Hua. He picked up the wine pot and took a sip. "Are you deciding to go back to old age?"
Xiao Yinzi was very servile and made a cup of tea for Yang Hua.
What Wei Mingzi has here are all top-notch things given as gifts by others, and they have a strong tea aroma.
"I haven't received an order for a long time." Yang Hua didn't know much about tea, so she took it and put it on the table casually. "There are quite a few good things in Afu's garden. I plan to go back there soon."
Wei Mingzi's eyes lit up, "A lot of good things?"
Yang Hua looked at him, still respectful, "They were all planted a few years ago, and then Afu..."
Having said that, Yang Hua didn't say anything more and changed the subject, frowning slightly: "Master, do you know that Xiao Su?"
Wei Mingzi looked a little strange, took another sip of wine, then stood up and staggered to the back, "Go and see if Hua Miao has adapted tomorrow."
He didn't tell Yang Hua about Su Cheng.
Yang Hua looked at Wei Mingzi's back, thoughtfully.

Yang family.
Yang Lai went out to discuss business with someone in the evening and didn't get home until nine o'clock. He drank some wine and then controlled his wheelchair to go home.
The Yang family, which was bustling in the past, was now very deserted.
Yang Zhaolin has been living in the laboratory since today, and after a few days of observation he has been made a full-time staff member.
Yang Hua left in the morning.
Yang Liufang is rarely seen in daily life.
In fact, this is how the Yang family was in the past.
However, Yang Lai felt a little uncomfortable today. He tilted his head and subconsciously asked the servant, "Where is the Madam?"
The servant brought out a bowl of warm health-preserving soup from the kitchen and handed it to Yang Lai.
"Madam received a phone call last night and went out. She said she would not be back for dinner," the servant said, looking out the door, "and she never came back."
Mrs. Yang would also get together with her sisters on weekdays, so it was normal for her to come home late at night.
Yang Lai has also gotten used to it.
But today Yang Lai felt a little panicked. He did not drink the soup but put it on the coffee table. He reached into his pocket, took out his cell phone, and called Mrs. Yang. The phone rang and then hung up automatically.
No one answered.
Yang Lai's heart suddenly sank and he dialed again.
Or to automatic shutdown.
It was rare for Madam Yang not to answer his phone. Yang Lai's fingers stiffened for a moment, and he dialed again. He looked at the servant again, his fingers gripping the wheelchair, and because of excessive force, his fingertips turned white: "Did Madam Yang say where she went tonight?"
His voice tightened.
The servant was standing next to him, so he naturally heard Yang Lai's phone call which no one answered.
"It's in a nearby hotel." The servant's voice became serious, "Madam drove there herself."
The Yang family's driver usually picks up Yang Lai, and Mrs. Yang usually drives herself when she goes out.
Still no one answered the call Yang Lai made to Mrs. Yang.
His fingertips were shaking as he pressed the phone. Finally, he opened the phone book and called Yang Jiu: "Yizhen is missing. Please check for nearby hotels."
Upon hearing that Mrs. Yang was missing, Yang Jiu was very surprised. He quickly hung up the phone and ordered someone to check the nearby hotels.
Yang Lai got back into the car and asked the driver to take him and Yang Jiu to look for it separately.
It was almost ten o'clock and we had searched all the nearby hotels but still couldn't find him.
The call still didn't go through, and the phone was automatically turned off.
Yulin Hotel.
Yang Jiu checked the information with the front desk, and hurriedly called Yang Lai, saying in a serious voice: "Sir, someone from Yulin Hotel said they saw the lady before. I guess she is nearby, and I have asked someone to check nearby."
"Okay." Yang Lai hung up the phone, his fingers trembling.
He asked someone to drive the car towards Yulin Hotel.
Countless thoughts flashed through his mind. The Yang family was wealthy and powerful, which meant that there were some shady things and many enemies. Yang Lai had experienced many plots against him in his early years, but he had escaped them all.
So in the past two years, he has protected his family very well.
He was so opposed to Yang Liufang becoming a star because he was afraid that Yang Liufang's background would be exposed. As a star, Yang Liufang's whereabouts were almost a secret.
But Yang Liufang was very stubborn, so Yang Lai could only try his best to help her cover up her background.
Unexpectedly, the scene he was most worried about today still happened...
Yang Lai's car stopped in front of Yulin Hotel.
At the same time, the cell phone in my pocket rang.
It’s still Yang Jiu.
When the call was connected, Yang Jiu was silent.
Yang Lai seemed to sense something, and he said softly: "Have you found the person?"
Yang Jiu hummed, then spoke hoarsely, "It's in the alley beside Wutong Road, northeast of the hotel. Come over quickly."
As if sensing something was wrong, Yang Lai's fingers trembled for a long time and he was unable to control the wheelchair.
The driver quickly got down from the driver's seat and said, "Sir, I'll push you."
He pushed Yang Lai towards Wutong Road.
At the entrance of a dark alley on Wutong Road, there were more than a dozen men in black, and the tall and strong Yang Jiu was standing among them.
Occasionally, a car passing by would see this scene and step on the accelerator as fast as possible.
Seeing Yang Lai coming, Yang Jiu quickly turned around. He looked at Yang Lai with red eyes, "Sir, you...you should be ready."
Yang Lai's eyes were deep. He didn't look at Yang Jiu, but looked at the entrance of the alley through the gap in the crowd.
The bodyguard silently made way.
Mrs. Yang could be seen lying on the ground. She didn’t know how long she had been lying there. Under the dim street lights, her face was extremely pale.
She was wearing a dark coat when she left today. There was a hole clearly visible on her collarbone where a sharp weapon had pierced her, and the blood had stained the coat darkly.
I don't know how long the blood has been flowing. It has turned dark red and is almost coagulated.
Her hands were in an irregular position behind her back.
I don’t know how long I stayed here.
This is also one of the reasons why most people dare not intervene when they see Mrs. Yang.
It's obvious at first glance that this is no ordinary injury.
Yang Lai's eyes, which usually had a lot of momentum, now looked a little dull. He watched this scene quietly. The atmosphere around him became heavy and he almost didn't know how to react.
It’s true, it hurts.
Yang Jiu stood beside Yang Lai, suppressing his anger, and said softly: "I have called 120 and notified Doctor Qin. I don't know if Madam has any other injuries. I dare not touch Madam."
Yang Lai raised his head and asked, "Have you checked the surveillance?"
"We've called the police, and asked people to check the surrounding surveillance," Yang Jiu said quickly, "but if there was a plan, we shouldn't be able to find many clues in the surveillance."
After listening, Yang Lai didn't say anything else. He just stood there without blinking.
A few minutes later, the sound of an ambulance rang out.
The white ambulance stopped and Dr. Qin got out along with the nurses and doctors. He was in casual clothes.
When he saw Madam Yang lying on the ground, Doctor Qin's face changed. He didn't have time to greet Yang Lai. He pried open Madam Yang's eyes, shone the flashlight, and checked her arms and joints. His face changed and he said hurriedly, "The patient is unconscious. Bring the oxygen mask over and carry it carefully!"
He followed the nurse and carefully moved Mrs. Yang to the ambulance.
Yang Lai got into the car in a daze. The driver drove anxiously behind the ambulance.

laboratory.
Yang Zhaolin is still studying new algorithms with Xin Shun. There are ten people in their laboratory. Dean Li is responsible for the most core and difficult technical models, while other simpler algorithms are assigned to others.
"This is Guan Shuxian, an alumnus of Peking University." Xin Shun introduced the young man to Yang Zhaolin with a smile.
Yang Zhaolin taught at Peking University, so he had naturally heard of the name of the only exchange student from Zhou University. He extended his hand, his handsome face neither humble nor arrogant, and he was very polite: "Hello, Professor Guan."
Guan Shuxian shook hands with him, raised his eyebrows and smiled, "I heard that your cousin is very capable."
When mentioning Meng Fu, Yang Zhaolin's cold face showed a little more smile, and he laughed: "You are so kind."
Although he said it was a compliment, Yang Zhaolin's face did not show that expression at all.
Guan Shuxian glanced at Yang Zhaolin.
Xin Shun took off his research suit. It was now eleven o'clock and he wanted to go back and rest.
Yang Zhaolin left the laboratory with him. When he was taking off his research suit, he accidentally broke his glass. He looked down at the broken glass and felt uneasy for some reason.
He followed Xin Shun and got his phone back.
Eleven o'clock.
Logically, Mrs. Yang, who took care of her health, and Yang Lai should have already gone to bed.
Yang Zhaolin took the mobile phone and after passing the blocked area, he somehow dialed Mrs. Yang's number.
The phone rang twice and then was connected.
It was Yang Lai, "Why are you calling?"
Yang Zhaolin paused, "Why is it you?"
On the other end of the phone, Yang Lai looked at the lights in the emergency room, his eyes full of anger, but his voice became calm, "Your mother is asleep, why are you still working so late?"
"Then you should go to bed early too." Hearing that Yang Lai was resting, Yang Zhaolin did not disturb him.
Hang up the phone.
On the other end of the phone, Yang Lai kept the phone to his ear for a long time without moving.
"Sir, why don't you let the young master come over?" After Yang Jiu finished recording his confession, he came over and heard Yang Lai's voice.
"He has been in the laboratory recently. The person behind this is not an ordinary person. Afu is also with him. It will not do him good to know too much. Not only her, but also Liufang should not be revealed." There was almost a storm brewing in Yang Lai.
At the end of the corridor, Dr. Qin hurried over with a group of experts.
He saw Yang Lai and took a deep breath. "Boss Yang, Madam Yang is in very poor health. Her scapula is shattered, her tendons are almost broken, and she has multiple fractures. You... you should know who did this. I will do my best."
After saying that, Dr. Qin hurried into the emergency room again.
Outside the door, Yang Lai still didn't move. He put his phone on his lap. In his other hand was the lucky bag he had taken from Madam Yang. "Yang Jiu, what did the police say?"
Yang Jiu frowned, "Still checking."
Yang Lai murmured, "...still investigating."
After a long while, Yang Lai said, "Give me a copy of the video you got."
**
The next day, Yang Hua arranged the seedlings and hurried down the mountain.
Xiao Yinzi reluctantly sent Yang Hua down the mountain, "Master, are you in such a hurry?"
Yang Hua hummed. She was still worried about Madam Yang. "I'll come to see you next month and bring you some delicious food."
After she finished talking to Xiao Yinzi, she took a bus back to the city.
In the afternoon, she arrived at the door of Yang's house.
The Yang family is very quiet today.
Yang Hua was at the door. Before she rang the doorbell, the servant in the garden saw Yang Hua and hurried over to open the door: "Miss Baozhu!"
Yang Hua handed the talismans she brought back from the temple to the servants, looked at the quiet Yang family, paused, and tilted her head: "Where are my sister-in-law and the others?"
The maid hadn't slept all night, and her eyes were swollen and red. She stood there, paused for a moment, and then said with red eyes: "I don't know. We couldn't find the lady last night, so the husband went out to look for her. Later, I contacted the driver, and the driver said that the lady was in the emergency room and hasn't come back yet..."
Yang Hua stopped and looked up. "Which hospital?"
