The ancestor is here, she is here with space

Lin Congyun looked at the prefect's back, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then he sneaked into the study quietly.

She wanted to see what secrets this prefect had.

Lin Congyun searched around in the study room and soon found some account books and correspondence. He took a quick look and found nothing special.

Just then, she suddenly saw a small door behind the bookshelf. The door was half-open, revealing a gap.

Seeing this, Lin Congyun's eyes flashed with a hint of doubt, and then he walked over.

She reached out and pushed open the small door, revealing a dim room with a long-forgotten smell in the air.

The room was not big, but it was filled with some seemingly messy items - old books, scrolls, and some dusty wooden boxes.

She slowly stepped into the room, taking every step with extreme caution, fearing that she would miss any clues.

Her eyes wandered around the room, finally landing on a seemingly ordinary wooden box.

The surface of the wooden box is carved with ancient patterns. Although it has become a little blurred due to the erosion of time, one can still feel its former exquisiteness.

Lin Congyun gently picked up the wooden box and felt how heavy it was.

She carefully opened the wooden box and saw a stack of yellowed papers neatly arranged inside.

She pulled out one of them and after carefully reading it, she found that the papers were just ordinary records and there was nothing unusual.

Her brows furrowed slightly, and she couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

Just as she was about to put the paper back into the wooden box, close the lid, and turn to leave, she caught a glimpse of a strange place in the room out of the corner of her eye.

It was a corner that looked unusually clean and tidy compared to other places, as if it was cleaned frequently.

Lin Congyun's eyes were drawn to it involuntarily, and she approached gently, squatted down, and carefully observed the area. She found that on the ground in the corner, there was a stone slab that was slightly raised, which was out of tune with the surrounding ground.

She felt something in her mind, and she stretched out her fingers to gently tap the stone slab. The echo was deep and solid. She immediately understood that there must be a mystery under the stone slab.

She looked around, searching for the mechanism to open the stone slab.

After a careful search, she finally found a small button at the bottom of the bookshelf.

She pressed the button gently, and with a "click", the stone slab slowly moved aside, revealing a dark entrance.

Lin Congyun took a deep breath, feeling nervous and excited. She leaned down carefully and looked into the cave.

The cave was pitch black and bottomless, as if it led to another world.

She hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to take the risk and walked slowly into the cave, taking every step carefully for fear of triggering some mechanism.

As she went deeper, the light inside the cave gradually became brighter, and she began to see some scenes inside the cave - it was filled with gold, silver and jewelry, dazzling the eyes.

"Oh, I never thought that a small prefect could embezzle so much." Lin Congyun looked at the gold, silver and jewelry in front of him, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Even the candles inside had wicks woven with gold thread, and the lamp oil exuded a rich fragrance, which made it clear at first glance that it was not an ordinary item.

Since Lin Congyun has seen these things in front of us, we definitely cannot stay here any longer.

After a while, there was another empty secret room, and the golden candle was also put into the space by Lin Congyun.

Lin Congyun closed the stone slab with satisfaction, quickly left the room and returned to the study.

In the study, she carefully checked the surroundings again, and only after confirming that there were no traces left did she quietly leave the government office.

The moonlight was like a silk thread, shining on the bluestone slabs of the government office, emitting a faint cold light.

Outside the government office, she met Fang Deyong.

"Mom, why did you take so long?" Fang Deyong saw Lin Congyun coming out, his face full of worry.

Lin Congyun smiled slightly, patted Fang Deyong's shoulder gently, and comforted him: "Don't worry, I'm fine. I just walked around inside."

"I didn't find anything special." Lin Congyun shook her head and answered lightly, but there was a hint of complexity in her eyes.

It’s not that I’m on guard against Fang Deyong, but I don’t know how to start the conversation about space, so it’s better not to say anything.

"Mom, where are we going next?" Fang Deyong asked in a low voice, his voice was particularly clear in the quiet night.

Lin Congyun stopped and looked into the distance. "Let's go back and rest. We have been traveling for two days. We will come out again tomorrow."

Fang Deyong nodded. According to the locations described by Chen Dongwang, in addition to the government office, there were several other places in Bianyun Pass that needed to be checked.

The time is not suitable to go to other places now, so we can only wait until tomorrow.

On the second day, Bianyun Pass, this ancient and prosperous border town, was bathed in the rising sun.

The golden sunlight shines on the bluestone streets, casting mottled light and shadows, adding a bit of tranquility and harmony to the small town.

Lin Congyun stood outside the inn, gazing into the distance with deep eyes.

She turned her head slightly and whispered to Fang Deyong beside her, "Third Brother, let's act separately today. You take the others to check out the places I mentioned yesterday, while I want to walk around the city alone, maybe I can find something."

Fang Deyong was slightly stunned, but then nodded in agreement. He quickly gave instructions to the other six people, assigned tasks, and then he and Lin Congyun went their separate ways.

Two people stayed behind to look after Chen Dongwang.

Lin Congyun walked alone on the streets of Bianyun Pass. Her pace was neither fast nor slow, just like an old lady out for a walk.

There are shops on both sides of the street, selling a wide variety of goods, and the sounds of hawking are heard one after another, making the street very lively.

However, Lin Congyun seemed to be oblivious to all this prosperity, her mind had already drifted elsewhere.

She stopped and looked from time to time, as if looking for something, but each time she shook her head in disappointment and continued on her way.

Before she knew it, she came to an alley in Bianyun Pass.

This place is completely different from the bustling outside, it is quiet and deep, as if isolated from the world.

Lin Congyun's eyes wandered around the alley, and suddenly, her sight fixed on an inconspicuous little house.

The door of the hut was half-open, and a faint light shone through the crack.

She felt something strange in her heart, as if there was an inexplicable force guiding her here.

She walked slowly into the cabin and gently pushed open the half-open door.

A cold breath blew towards her, and Lin Congyun frowned slightly, but she did not stop.

The room was dark and cold. Lin Congyun looked around the room.

Suddenly, her attention was drawn to a shabby box in the corner.
