He said with a helpless expression. They had thought of many ways to rescue him, but they came to nothing in the end.
”Little girl, I knew you would come,” Just when Ning Meng Yao was about to say something, a hoarse voice sounded out.
Ning Meng Yao froze, she then turned her head, she saw Old Man Guai appearing in the courtyard, the way he looked at her was as if he was hating the iron for not being steel.
Ning Meng Yao reached out her hand and touched her nose, she had some awkwardness in her eyes.
”Grandpa Guai, you found out about it?”
”With so many people following behind me, do you think I won’t find out?” Ever since he had separated from Ning Meng Yao and the others, he sensed a few auras following behind him, although it was not so obvious, he had still found out about it.
He did not ditch them after realizing it, he could only bring those people along to this place in a helpless manner, since it was this little girl’s kind intentions, he was not someone who would not appreciate the kindness.
But he never expected that the few young fellas were really not bad, they had actually barged in and were not caught, enough to hold great responsibility.
”Little girl, only a few of you came?” He did not think that the little girl was a person who did not know the importance of this matter.
Ning Meng Yao shook her head: “No, there’s also elder brother Bai Yi and the others who came along, they should be arriving soon.”
Old Man Guai nodded his head in satisfaction: “They are also here? Then I feel rest assured.”
”Grandpa Guai, sorry, I’ve caused you to worry.”
Old Man Guai knocked on Ning Meng Yao’s forehead: “You silly girl, grandpa only has you who is an obedient granddaughter, who should I help if not you?”
”Don’t you also have a great-grandson?” Ning Meng Yao retorted in dissatisfaction.
Old Man Guai gave some thought and nodded his head: “That’s true.”
After the two of them finished reminiscing, Number 1 took out a map he personally drew: “Princess, we’ve surveyed the area a few times, I’ve drawn this map.”
Ning Meng Yao received and looked at it, but she realized she could not understand it, it was Qiao Tian Chang standing by her side explaining softly to her, causing her to be enlightened.
”So that’s how it is.”
”Are you certain nobody realized it?” Qiao Tian Chang felt that they had obtained the map too easily, causing him to find it unbelievable.
”Yes,” Number 1 was certain that nobody found out.
However, Qiao Tian Chang sat at his original spot and seemed to be thinking about something: “This map is real, but I’m afraid your tracks have been found out.
From what Number Three and Four said, he already knew that they had alerted others when they first entered, under such circumstances, why would they think that their tracks had not been found out?
”Let this old man give it a try to see if we’ve been found out,” Old Man Guai suddenly said when the crowd was in silence.
Their gazes landed on Old Man Guai, Ning Meng Yao directly asked: “Grandpa Guai, tell us, do you have any ideas?”
”My idea is really simple, this old man will give it a try tonight.”
”But......”
”Don’t worry, nothing will happen.”
Ning Meng Yao could not stop Old Man Guai, she could only allow him to go.
That night, Old Man Guai, donned in black, headed to that house, when he was searching around he accidentally made some noise, but the people inside seemed not to notice him.
Old Man Guai’s eyes flickered a little, it seems that Qiao boy was right, they’ve been found out.
Old Man Guai calmly left something in the courtyard, he then exited using qinggong[1].
”Just like what Tian Chang said, the other party already knows of our presence,” Old Man Guai said in a calm tone.
If that person really knew about it, why would he allow them to do as they pleased?
”Their goal is to attract us over,” It was that simple, after finding out that Nangong Yan was still in this place, that person must be sure that they would definitely come over to rescue him.
The reason why they had not taken any action was because they wanted to capture them in one fell swoop.
Ning Meng Yao fiddled with the cup in her hand: “You all have been keeping an eye here for a long time, did you all notice any other thing?”
”There is, before we took action, we realized that there will be someone coming out every few days, he would then buy some vegetables and bring some girls in,” After finish speaking, awkwardness flashed in his face, what was he talking about.
[1] Qinggong – The use of qinggong has been exaggerated in wuxia fiction, in which martial artists have the ability to move swiftly and lightly at superhuman speed, and perform gravity-defying moves such as gliding on water surfaces, scaling high walls and mounting trees.
