Chapter 186 The Weird Cellar
Ms. Yao has successfully arrived at the Yamen of Jiangzhou Prefecture, and Jian Shizhe personally greeted her at the door.

Because Ms. Yao's status is very important, and Jian Shizhe has always been attached to Yao Zuofeng, that's why he took this matter so seriously, put aside all his official duties, and waited at the door in person.

When Miss Yao got off the sedan chair, Jian Shizhe stepped forward and said, "I'm here, Jian Shizhe, I've met Miss Yao."

Miss Yao immediately smiled and said, "Your Excellency Jane, you don't have to be polite."

Jian Shizhe then replied: "The house has been tidied up for you. The inside of the yamen is no better than the outside. It may be simpler, but only the young lady lives in the yamen, so I can protect you. I hope you will forgive me."

Miss Yao said, "It's nothing, it doesn't matter."

Then a guard led the two of them around the main hall of the yamen, and went straight to the east wing.

Although the yamen of Jiangzhou Mansion is not as magnificent as Liu's Mansion, Master Jian Shizhe did put in some thought, and Miss Yao is quite satisfied.

In the evening, Ms. Yao wanted to go to bed early, but the sound outside the window kept torturing her so that she could not sleep peacefully.

Then he got up, opened the window and checked, but found nothing unusual, so he was about to close the window.

But at the moment when the window was about to be closed, through the gap, she saw a group of people passing by not far away.

The team of people were all wearing black cloaks, they didn't look like officers and soldiers in the government office of Jiangzhou Prefecture.

Ms. Yao felt very strange for a while. In addition, she stayed in the yamen all day today and felt very boring, so she decided to go out and have a look and find out.

Because it was completely dark, she easily hid in the grass. She watched those men in black enter the back hall, so she squatted in the garden next to the back hall.

But after waiting for more than a quarter of an hour, no one appeared again, so she got up and walked slowly towards the back hall.

The door of the back hall was not locked. After she entered, she was surprised to find that the whole back hall was empty!
This shocked her very much, because there were four or fifty people who had just entered the back hall, and now all of them disappeared?It's so weird.

Seeing that there was no one around, she reassuredly and boldly lit the torch in her hand, and examined it carefully.

Suddenly, at the east corner, she found a wooden cover similar to a cellar, and she pulled hard on the iron ring on it, and pulled the wooden board away abruptly.

Because of too much force, she sat down on the ground, but she still brought the torch close to the cellar, and sure enough, a bottomless staircase appeared inside, extending all the way to the ground.

If it was an ordinary woman, she might be a little scared when she saw this weird secret passage, but Miss Yao was not scared, she was even more excited.

She got up and walked slowly towards the cellar. She didn't know how long she walked, but she felt that the cellar must be very deep, but she finally reached the bottom of the cellar.

She raised the torch in her hand, looked at the surrounding environment, and found that the place is very narrow, and the surrounding walls are somewhat like copper, and some are like iron, and she is still a little unclear for a while.

She continued walking along the narrow passage, and found a secret room, but the secret room was locked with a lock. Miss Yao tried to open the door, but failed, so she decided to move on.

When she walked to the experience of this road, she realized that this is a three-way intersection, and now there are two roads for her to choose.

She took a photo of the left and right with a fire folder, and found that the passages on both sides were bottomless. Now it seems that the difference is not very big. After thinking about it, she decided to go to the left.

But suddenly, there was the sound of orderly footsteps not far away. It seemed that there were quite a few people coming, probably the group of men in black just now.

Miss Yao immediately blew out the torch in her hand, and quickly turned back to the direction she just came from.

When she finally came out of the cellar, she hurriedly hid in the garden again. She stroked her chest in shock and panted heavily.

She looked at the gate of the back hall, and sure enough, she saw a large number of men in black coming out, and they all had more big black cloth bags on their shoulders.

After inferring from that shape, Ms. Yao was startled, that shape was clearly a human being!
Could it be that there are some unknown corpses hidden in the back hall of the Jiangzhou government office?
This conjecture immediately made her puzzled. It seemed that she had to find an opportunity, find another way, and go down again. Then she had to investigate carefully before she could find out the truth.

Early in the morning of the second day, when I saw the sky, I knew it was another sunny day.

Ms. Yao got up early in the morning. After she had breakfast, she tidied herself up. She wanted to let the servant girl accompany her to go out for a stroll. After all, this was her first time in Jiangzhou, so she didn't have the chance to take a good tour of the mountains. Some water!
But suddenly an officer and soldier came over and told her, "Miss, is someone looking for you outside?"

The officers and soldiers said: "He didn't say that, but he said he is your friend, and you don't dare to neglect, please ask him to wait in the hall first."

Miss Yao nodded, and said casually, "Okay, take me to have a look."

Following the guards, Miss Yao saw Liu Geng in the hall. She really didn't expect that Liu Geng would come to pester her.

Then he said unceremoniously: "How can Mr. Liu come back here? Is there something wrong?"

Liu Geng was followed by two young servants, and the young servants were still carrying some things in large and small bags.

Liu Geng also spoke at this time: "Miss Yao, I offended you so much that day, and Liu came here to apologize to you."

As he spoke, he turned his head slightly, signaling the servant behind him to put his things away.

But Ms. Yao said: "Take all your things away, I don't want them, and you don't need to come and apologize to me, you can go."

Hearing this, Liu Geng still maintained his patience and a gentle smile on his face. He slowly said: "Miss Yao, I have absolutely no other intentions in coming here today. I just hope to get the lady's forgiveness. Besides, , what happened that day is actually hidden, and I can explain it to the young lady, as long as the young lady is willing to listen."

Miss Yao looked at the decent appearance of the man in front of her, but now she just finds it ridiculous, any scholar is just pretending!
Thinking of this, she didn't want to waste her time anymore, and she didn't want to listen to any nonsense from this man, so she immediately said: "I advise you to leave quickly, otherwise this lady will really be rude!"

But this Liu Geng was still stubborn and refused to leave.

Helpless, Ms. Yao could only say to the officers and soldiers: "You drive this person out immediately, and in the future, as long as it is him, stop me and prevent him from stepping into the yamen!"

Before leaving, she said unceremoniously: "By the way, throw out the things he took, just like his people."
