Ouyang Yunyao walked into the yard of this row of houses. Looking over the buildings, there was no light on the second floors. Only a few houses on the first floor had faint candlelight coming out of the windows.

Ouyang Yunyao checked every room with light through the windows. There didn't seem to be anything wrong with those rooms, and no one was inside.

At this time, she saw a rather peculiar house. The house had no normal windows. There was only a small window on the top of one wall. The window was about two meters from the ground, and a faint candlelight shone through the window.

Ouyang Yunyao walked around to the front door of the house. There was no light at the door and no one was guarding it, but she could sense that there were many secret guards around without using a night vision device. In order not to alert the enemy, she decided to climb in through the small window to see what was hidden in such a house.

Ouyang Yunyao lay by the small window and looked down along the light in the room. This room was indeed different from the other rooms. There were six or seven people busy doing something inside. Ouyang Yunyao became excited. Could this be where they were refining poison? She had to go in and take a good look.

The window was really small, so Ouyang Yunyao could only slowly put her feet in and then slide down. After a while, she quietly passed through the small window, avoided those people, and entered the room smoothly.

Everyone here has a table with an oil lamp on it. They don't speak, just stand there and operate the things in their hands.

Ouyang Yunyao was really curious, what were they still busy doing so late at night? Could they really be extracting the poppy poison? She walked up to one of them and saw poppy shells and juice extracted from poppy capsules on his table, which had been dried into blocks.

Some people were still using the shells and adding a little bit of the juice to boil water. There were many empty jars beside each of them. Ouyang Yunyao walked around in front of these people and saw the cooling water in front of each person. She understood that this was probably what they called fairy water, that is, drug water.

Some people cook water that is strong, some cook water that is weak, which may be why they divide fairy water into several grades.

When Ouyang Yunyao saw these, she was furious. These people actually used such things to harm others. She really wanted to smash these things.

She frowned, but held back. She couldn't move rashly. This was just the place where the magic water was produced. She couldn't alert the enemy. She had to quickly find the place where poppies were grown and find the source of the drugs as soon as possible.

She calmly walked around the room again and saw an inconspicuous little door.

She gently pushed the small door, and luckily it could be opened. She looked around, and while those people were not paying attention, she quickly opened the small door and slipped in, then closed the door again.

Ouyang Yunyao walked in here and found that this was a large room without any windows, with many small jars stored in it.

Ouyang Yunyao picked up a jar at random and found that it was full. Without thinking twice, she collected half of it and put it into the space. Those people would not notice it for a while, and even if they found that there was less, they would not suspect that an outsider had come in.

When I walked into the room, I found an underground dark room. The door of the dark room was open, otherwise Ouyang Yunyao might not have found it.

Ouyang Yunyao took a look at the bottom of the dark room. These people were really careless. The door of the dark room was just open. Could it be that there was nothing underneath?

Ouyang Yunyao thought about it and decided to go down and take a look. She didn't want to miss such an opportunity. She walked into the dark room. There was a staircase leading downwards. It was not dark here. There were night pearls inlaid on the wall beside the corridor. Ouyang Yunyao sighed and wondered how could there be night pearls everywhere in ancient times? Are night pearls not valuable here?

Ouyang Yunyao walked all the way down the stairs to the ground. The stairs only had about ten steps. This was a passage, but it was wide enough for about four people to walk side by side, and a small carriage could pass through. This passage seemed to be used to transport those things.

Ouyang Yunyao walked along the passage for about a quarter of an hour and came to a fork in the road. She judged the direction and felt that the fork led to the front building of Wanchunyuan, which meant that the teahouse in front was connected to the one behind.

She gave up the fork and continued along the original path. In the dead of night, there was no one in this passage, which made it easier for her to walk quickly.

Even so, it took Ouyang Yunyao nearly an hour to walk through this passage, which means almost two hours. She thought that if she didn't tell Chu Chenjing, he might be worried because he couldn't find her. But there was nothing she could do. She could only check first.

There is no road ahead, and we arrive at a small space. In this small space there is a small staircase leading upwards.

It's such a long way, so we should be away from Wanchun Garden, right? Where is this place? Is it out of the city? Ouyang Yunyao said to herself.

There was a very small opening at the top of the stairs. There was a wooden board in the opening that should have been pushed open upwards. Ouyang Yunyao saw a button on the wall. She didn't know if there was anyone there. She put her ear to the small hole and listened for a while, but there was no movement.

She took a silenced pistol in her hand, pressed the button with one hand, pushed the wooden board away, and jumped out quickly. At this time, a shadow flew over. Ouyang Yunyao was about to press the bolt when she suddenly felt a familiar smell and a small voice, "Yaoyao, it's me."

When Ouyang Yunyao turned sideways and saw Chu Chenjing's handsome face, she relaxed. She thought to herself, isn't this stupid? Others can't see her.

Chu Chenjing walked up to her and hugged her in his arms. He was just worried about her, wondering how she was doing? Was she safe? Seeing her finally relieved.

Ouyang Yunyao lay in his arms. "Ajing, why are you here?"

"I followed the young man in white into his room and found a passage in his room. I walked through the passage all the way to here."

"Yaoyao, how did you find this place?"

"I interrogated the three people, and they said they were not allowed to go to the building facing the lake. So I went over to take a look, and found a secret passage there that led me here."

"Ajing, where is this?" Ouyang Yunyao asked again.

Ouyang Yunyao raised her eyes and looked around secretly, and found that the house where the two of them were seemed to be a warehouse, with bags of things piled up inside. The room had only one door, which led to a house next door.

Chu Chenjing let go of Ouyang Yunyao, took her hand, and walked with her outside. "Yaoyao, I have checked here. It is a farm outside the city. There are many farmers in it. The farmland outside the house is full of flowers. I don't recognize those flowers, but they are very beautiful. There are red, purple, white, and blue ones, but they are not the kind of flowers you are talking about."
