She transmigrated into a widow and farmed to raise vests.

Qin Qiang waited, perhaps his mother had forgotten the time after leaving home.

When evening came and no one had returned, they started to get worried.

The whole family immediately set out to look for the person.

But with the heavy snow, where can we find people on the street?

It was a vast expanse of white, without a single person in sight.

I searched all night and was freezing half to death.

When they got home, they found out that Qin's mother hadn't gone home at all.

They went to look for it again before dawn.

I couldn't find my old place or the dilapidated temple in the city.

If we really couldn't find it, we immediately reported it to the authorities.

However, the government simply doesn't have the time to manage things like finding people right now.

It snowed heavily for several days in a row.

The government is taking precautions now because it is worried that there will be a major snow disaster this year.

They sent people to shovel snow in the streets and also urged everyone to start buying more supplies.

With all the people in the county government office dispatched, there was naturally no manpower left to do other things.

Therefore, the only ones who can find Qin's mother are the ones who need to find her.

It snowed heavily for several days, and the weather was freezing cold.

Most of them were willing to help, and Qin Qiang was extremely grateful.

He was also scared, fearing that Qin's mother was in grave danger, so he stumbled over to tell Qin Yu.

Qin Yu was stunned when he received the message.

How could Qin's mother, a perfectly healthy person, just disappear?

After discussing the matter with Qin Qiang, they confirmed that Qin's mother had not offended anyone.

They panicked even more.

"Go back and check on your neighbors. See if anything seems amiss. I'll find someone experienced to help!"

Finding people is something others are good at, but she has someone who is good at it!

After leaving Yunlaiju, I found a deserted open space, held a firework in my hand, and launched it into the air.

At that moment, the first-year junior high student was playing outside with several younger children.

A suspicious object flashed by in the air.

They immediately realized something was wrong.

"My sister said that if there's an emergency and she can't come back, she'll set off a firework."

Something must have happened.

The group quickly returned to Wantong Manor and gathered everyone together.

"You stay here on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year. On the second and fourth days, you'll come with me!"

"Qin Qiu, Qin Xia, you two come along too!"

The group of five harnessed their horses and left through the back door of Wantong.

Qin Yu left marks on the walls along the street and hung a red cloth on the door of the inn.

Then I went straight home.

The first thing to do is to go find Linghu Bai.

At this moment, Linghu Bai was lying motionless on the bed, breathing steadily.

Her lips were still a bit pale, and her complexion hadn't regained its rosy hue.

"How is he? Has he woken up?"

Qin Yu asked Qiangwei, who was standing to the side.

Rose shook her head.

"No! If I weren't still breathing, I would be dead!"

As she spoke, Rose added another piece of charcoal to the brazier.

Seeing this, Qin Yu took out a knife and gestured for Qiangwei to go out first.

"You go out first!"

Rose noticed the gleaming knife in Qin Yu's hand and was somewhat surprised.

"Sister, what are you doing? Are you going to kill him?"

Qin Yu ignored her and gave her a look that told her to leave.

After waiting for Qiangwei to leave, Qin Yu approached the bed with a dagger in his hand.

The person on the bed remained unresponsive.

Qin Yu, still holding the dagger, moved closer and closer to Linghu Bai on the bed.

Until the cold blade touched Linghu Bai's neck.

"Aren't you going to wake up yet?" Qin Yu asked back.

The person on the bed suddenly opened their eyes and grabbed her wrist.

"Don't be impulsive..."

Linghu Bai spoke weakly and feebly, his eyes filled with helplessness.

Looking at the person so close to him, Linghu Bai gave a weak smile.

"You really are heartless, are you going to kill me?"

"If you hadn't woken up just now!"

Qin Yu shook off the man's hand and stood up straight.

"My mother has disappeared. Do you know something about it?"

Qin Yu got straight to the point.

Linghu Bai had no idea what had happened.

He helped himself up from the bed.

"What do you mean?"

"Someone is spying on me. You must know something!"

Qin Yu wasn't testing her; she simply said she knew.

Linghu Bai clutched his chest and feigned a cough.

"you know?"

"I'll leave those people aside for now. Tell me now, were you the ones who took my mother with you?"

Qin Yu wasn't sure, but he felt that the two things were related.

That's why she came to find Linghu Bai.

“I do know some things, but I’m not sure if your mother was taken away by them.”

"Maybe she's just lost!"

Linghu Bai didn't think so.

They also tried to tell him that perhaps it wasn't them who took it.

Qin Yu didn't believe the story of him getting lost.

Qin's mother, even if she hadn't lived here since childhood, had been living in the city for six years.

I've walked through every street and alley. If no one took him away, how could a living person just disappear like that?

If they've been taken away, they should send people up to demand a ransom.

There has been no news since then, and she understands that it is definitely not as simple as just disappearing.

"It seems you know quite a lot. Tell me what you know!"

"Who is spying on me and what do they want from me?"

She injured that person, and now there's no one to keep an eye on her.

Lu Xiaoan and Lu Zhou were unharmed. Zhui Feng also did not notice anything unusual.

They were all fine, but his mother was the only one who had an accident.

She simply wouldn't believe it if you said there was no contact.

Instead, ask them what they want from you.

"There are some things I can't say too much about, but I can tell you that your mother will be alright!"

It's all speculation right now. They must be looking for Qin's mother to find out something from her.

As long as Qin's mother tells what she knows, nothing will happen!

"You guarantee it? What guarantees do you have? Aren't you being hunted down too?"

Qin Yu snorted coldly, clearly disagreeing with such a statement.

She hadn't forgotten that this person had been poisoned.

"Tell me, who are you?"

Since we can't get any other information out of this person, let's ask who they are.

"You better not lie to me, or I'll throw you out into the street!"

"I believe those people didn't kill you, but they certainly won't let you go now. Maybe they're out there lurking, waiting for you to show up!"

Qin Yu's words made Linghu Bai shake his head with a smile.

The color in his face had faded even further.

Where would you like to hear me begin?

As Linghu Bai spoke, the light in his eyes seemed to fade, and they dimmed instantly.

Within an hour, Qin Yu also heard some things she didn't know.

The Thousand Machine Tower was a place specifically responsible for intelligence, reaching everyone from surrounding officials to the southern barbarians on the frontier.

The intelligence network of Qianjilou is distributed throughout the country.

However, they are also divided into large and small, and primary and secondary.

They knew everything that happened inside and outside the capital.

The Thousand Machine Tower actually belonged more to the imperial court.

Linghu Bai is the head of the pavilion, but he doesn't wield much power.

The one who truly took charge was always the old pavilion master.

Linghu Bai told me about his own background without reservation.

"Actually, they wanted to kill me, not only because of you, but also because I knew some things I shouldn't have known!"
