When Shopkeeper Chen heard this, he also felt the seriousness of the situation and asked anxiously, "Have you searched everywhere outside?"
Yang Dalang: "We have searched Yuezhou City thoroughly and haven't found any trace of them!"
A waiter who had overheard the conversation said, "Boss, I heard the two young masters say they were going to the teahouse to listen to storytelling. Maybe they were so engrossed in it that they forgot to come back!"
When Shopkeeper Chen heard the young man say this, he couldn't help but shake his head in denial: "The storytelling session ended at 5 pm, how could he not have returned yet?"
The Yang brothers said: "Please ask Manager Chen to look around nearby. We two brothers will go to the teahouse to have a look." After saying that, they hurried out of the inn.
As the effect of the drug wore off, Li Yan and Zhou Xun gradually woke up.
Li Yan wanted to move her body, but found that her hands and feet were tied.
While struggling, Li Yan saw Zhou Xun lying on the ground. She slowly moved over and whispered Zhou Xun's name.
Zhou Xun was woken up by Li Yan's foot. Seeing Li Yan safe and sound in front of him, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief!
Li Yan: "I'm sorry, it's all my fault that I got you into trouble!"
Zhou Xun: "Miss Li, this is not the time to be sad. Let's think about how to escape quickly."
Li Yan looked around uncertainly and said, "We don't know where we are being held at this moment!"
Zhou Xun shook his head.
Li Yan moved her body and sat with her back to Zhou Xun: "Try to see if you can untie me!"
Zhou Xun smiled bitterly: "I'm also tied up! How can I help you?"
At this time, voices were heard outside the door.
Man: "I heard that Manager Liu bought two more children today? Are they being held here?"
Another male voice lowered its voice: "Shh, keep your voice down, or someone will hear you!"
The man shrank his head and sighed softly: "Ah..."
"Why are you sighing? You've been in the mansion for so many years and you're still not used to it!" the man asked
"I just wonder what kind of parents are so cruel as to send their child to this den of wolves and ruin his life in vain!"
The man covered his companion's mouth and cursed, "You're looking for death! If you keep talking nonsense, nine lives won't be enough for you to die!"
When the crowd in front of the room suddenly quieted down, Li Yan and Zhou Xun couldn't help but look at each other. Zhou Xun spoke first, "Have you thought of a way? We have to escape!"
Li Yan was at a loss for a moment. They were tied up at the moment, and it seemed difficult to escape from such an unfamiliar environment.
The two of them are in an unsolvable desperate situation.
Over there, the Yang brothers came to the door of the teahouse and found that the door had already been closed!
Yang Erlang went forward and knocked on the door of the teahouse for a long time but no one responded.
Yang Erlang asked anxiously, "Brother, what should we do now? Will something happen to those two children?"
Yang Dalang had a bad feeling in his heart, and said calmly, "Curfew will be over soon, let's go back to the inn first!"
The two hurried back to the inn. Shopkeeper Chen was pacing anxiously in the lobby. Seeing that Li Yan was not around, he asked anxiously, "Didn't you look for her?"
Yang Dalang nodded and said, "The teahouse is closed now. I can only wait until tomorrow to ask the owner!"
Shopkeeper Chen paced back and forth anxiously. It was so late and they still hadn't returned. They must have met with something unexpected. Thinking of this, Shopkeeper Lin could no longer sit still and said to the Yang brothers, "No, I have to go to the county government office!"
After hearing what Shopkeeper Chen said, the Yang brothers said, "Then we'll go with Shopkeeper Chen!"
After that, they left the inn and headed towards the county government office.
