Xu Li nodded: "Yes, he said they were all lost."

Xiao Chiye put down the teacup in his hand: "I don't think so."

Xu Li nodded: "The government office has archived documents. If it is really lost as he said, I will definitely come to the government office to get a replacement."

Xia Wanniang lowered her head and did not look at Xu Li: It seems that I have to deal with these things in my hands quickly, otherwise they will become waste paper if left in my hands.

"Master Xu, we still need to go buy a carriage, so we won't analyze the case with you here."

Xu Li nodded. Since he had no idea now, he might as well wait.

Xiao Chiye and Xia Wanniang came out of the government office and walked towards the drugstore.

Xia Wanniang used the food in her hand to exchange for a disposable shape-changing prop in the exchange space. This prop can change a person's image and voice.

The two went to Jishidiang first, bought a lot of medicinal materials, and borrowed the backyard of Manager Hong to write some things.

Shopkeeper Hong didn't care. He asked the two to go to the backyard and prepared writing brushes, ink, paper and inkstone for them.

Xia Wanniang started writing the contract, but she left the name of the buyer blank.

After doing all this, the two went to the North City area first, found a shop selling horse-drawn carriages, bought a carriage, and left the Flash there, ready to pick it up later.

Xia Wanniang touched the shining head and said, "Wait here for a while, we will come to pick you up soon." Then she gave it a carrot.

Shining happily took it and started eating it, wagging his tail happily.

The two arrived near Xicheng District and found an empty alley.

Xia Wanniang put a strange object in Xiao Chiye's belt and said, "My husband, you are the landowner now, and I am your housekeeper. Remember that." Then she put another object on her own belt.

Xiao Chiye was also shocked when he saw the man who had suddenly become the farm manager: "This..."

As soon as he opened his mouth, he found that his voice had turned into that of a farmer. He looked down and saw that he was still wearing the same clothes as before and did not notice any changes.

As Xia Wanniang walked, she explained to him, "To outsiders, we are others, but to ourselves, we are still ourselves."

Xiao Chiye immediately understood: "Why did we come to West City?"

Xia Wanniang: "West City is a mixed bag."

Xiao Chiye stopped talking and followed her to West City.

Xia Wanniang discovered that the bodies in the alleys of West City had indeed disappeared. She walked towards a wooden house and could hear the voices of several children inside.

She raised her hand and knocked on the wooden board that was not the door.

The children inside suddenly became quiet. After waiting for a while, the boy from yesterday carefully stood behind the door and asked, "What do you want?"

Xia Wanniang could hear his alert voice: "We want to find your boss in West City, can you show me the way?" Then he took out a few coins from his arms and put them in his palm: "If you are willing, these coins are yours."

The boy looked at the strange man in front of him warily. He had never seen this man before, but he gave him a strange feeling of familiarity.

"What are you doing with him?"

Xia Wanniang: "Let's do a business deal."

The boy thought for a moment and pulled open the wooden board: "Okay, I'll take you there."

Xia Wanniang stuffed the silver in her hand into his: "Hide it well."

The boy quickly took the silver, looked at her strangely, turned around and went back to the room, hid the silver, and asked another older child to buy food.

After he had made all the arrangements, he came out and said, "Let's go."

Seeing that Xia Wanniang was very familiar with this place, Xiao Chiye couldn't help but look at the boy curiously: "What's your name?"

The boy looked at him. "No name."

Xia Wanniang looked at the room they were in with great curiosity: "Are you siblings?"

"No." The boy answered quickly.

Xia Wanniang: "No, you still take care of them?"

Boy: "I'm older than them."

Xiao Chiye had a good impression of this boy. He did have some other ideas, but he didn't have the ability to do so now.

The boy led the two men through dirty alleys, where they could see many women wearing very little, leaning outside doors and winking at the two men.
