Dragon Boat Translation      Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Bai Shiyuan welcomed Gu Ying into the cave.

The entrance of the cave looked unremarkable, and the path leading inside was extremely narrow. However, after turning a few corners, the inside suddenly opened up. It was actually a different world.

The cave was littered with ever-burning lamps. The fuse inside was a strange dried fish. It was drawn into the grease below with cotton thread, and the flames were burning brightly.

It could be seen that this place had been operated and maintained for a long time. Although it was deep in the mountains, the cave did not feel cold and humid at all.

Along the way, he could see servants and maidservants shuttling back and forth, holding utensils, cleaning tools, and other items in their hands. Other than the fact that the surrounding cave layout looked a little out of place, it gave people the feeling that they were still in a deep courtyard.

Bai Shiyuan led Gu Ying to a secret room. Judging from the layout, it should be a study room.

“Young Master Ying, please sit.”

As he spoke, a servant served tea. Just by smelling it, one could tell that it was high-quality Longjing tea.

It seemed that even during their escape, the Bai family’s standard of living had not fallen.

“Just now I heard the news from the sentry slave that Young Master Ying had come. You don’t know how excited I was. It has been more than a month since we last met.”

“Although I don’t know how the two of you are doing, my Bai family’s current situation is indeed not good.”

Bai Shiyuan said with a bitter smile, the worry in his eyes never dissipating.

“Bing ‘Er said that something must have happened since you didn’t show up in Chu City, so she asked me to come out and see if I could find you.”

Gu Ying also briefly explained his intentions and said, “I also want to know where Imperial Doctor Tian and Mr. Du are.”

“Imperial Doctor Tian is in Chu City. He said that it’s one of the main traffic routes to the north. Moreover, there will definitely be a major epidemic after the disaster. As long as we hold Chu City, we can effectively prevent the epidemic from spreading north.”

“Therefore, according to his request, I left him in Chu City and left him with quite a lot of money and resources. If nothing unexpected happens, Lady Qin should be able to see him very soon.”

“As for Mr. Du, he continued to go north. You also know that our Bai family’s background is deeply feared by The Imperial Court. It’s fine if nothing happens, but once something happens, it’s a big deal. Therefore, it will be dangerous for Mr. Du to follow us.”

“I heard that Mr. Du also has properties in the capital) so I sent someone to escort Mr. Du over safely. It can be considered that I didn’t let down Lady Qin’s trust.”

Bai Shiyuan finished explaining the whereabouts of the two of them in one breath before picking up his teacup and taking a sip.

“I see. It seems that I want to bring Mr. Du back to Bing ‘Er and continue to chase north.”

Gu Ying didn’t look troubled. As long as he had a clue, he would bring him back to MO Ruyue no matter how far she was.

“Is Lady Qin looking for Mr. Du? May I know why?”

Bai Shiyuan asked curiously. After asking, he laughed at himself.

“Look at me, this is Lady Qin’s private matter. I can’t even take care of myself now, how can I have the leisure to pry into other people’s business.”

“The babies haven’t been able to enter school steadily yet. Bing ‘Er thought that perhaps she could ask Mr. Du if he was willing to be the babies’ teacher again.”

Gu Ying actually answered all the questions. This was too different from his usual taciturn image. Bai Shiyuan was surprised and could not help but take a few more glances at him.

“Now, tell me what kind of trouble the Bai family is.”

Gu Ying asked again.

He could understand Bai Shiyuan’s worries. He wanted them to lend a helping hand, but he also felt that the implications were too great and he could not implicate them.

However, in his and MO Ruyue’s eyes, it was not a big deal as long as it did not affect the safety of the babies.

The two of them were fearless masters, so how could they care that the Bai family had offended the royal family?

In the end, Bai Shiyuan still told them all about his family’s troubles. Even if Lady Qin was only a divine doctor, Gu Ying was definitely the top elite among the assassins.

He was someone that even the Xiao family wanted to rope in. One could see how terrifying his ability was.

Although it was not enough to go against the entire country, what if the Bai family’s financial resources and manpower were added?

Unless it was absolutely necessary, the Bai family would never consider the last step.

However, even a rabbit would bite when it was anxious.

Gu Ying listened quietly and finally had a concrete understanding of the Bai family’s current situation.

“So now, Master Bai is responsible for covering the rear and dealing with the pressure from above. As for you, Young Master Bai, you have to send your family safely through the blockade line and to the safest fortress that you have prepared, right?”

He briefly explained the division of labor between father and son.

“That’s right. The Imperial Court did not set up any defenses in Chu City. Although this place is also an important traffic route, the information they received was wrong. They thought that we had already passed through in advance.”

“Right now, the defense line is set up in another hub city a hundred miles away, and it’s heavily guarded. This time, we can’t get past it no matter what. I had no choice but to bring my family into the mountains.”

“What you’re seeing now is a temporary shelter that the Bai family’s ancestors have been preparing. The supplies stored inside can support a hundred people for half a year.”

“There are at least ten fallout shelters like this from the south to the north, but four of them have been destroyed for various reasons.”

Bai Shiyuan told him everything he knew about such a confidential matter because he knew that even if he did not say anything, Gu Ying would still be able to find out.

Once he was found to be lying, the foundation of trust would be on the verge of collapse. To the Bai family, the gains would not make up for the losses. No wonder. This cave is warm and dry. It’s definitely not something that can be achieved overnight.”

Gu Ying nodded.

It seemed that the feud between the Bai family and the royal family had lasted for a long time. It was actually Bai Shiyuan’s ancestors who had started to set up these fallout shelters.

The current one alone would not be able to hold on for long without huge financial support.

This also proved from another perspective that the true strength of the Bai family was truly unfathomable.

“Your wish is to send your family safely to the safest fortress, right?”

Gu Ying pondered for a while and said proudly, “It’s not difficult. Leave it to me.”

“Really, Young Master Ying? This, this is great!”

Bai Shiyuan could not believe it. What he thought was extremely difficult could be said so easily by Gu Ying.

“I won’t promise something I can’t do.”

If someone else had said this, Gu Ying might have felt offended. However, what Bai Shiyuan said was indeed extremely difficult. It was normal for him to

have doubts.

“Then, whatever Young Master Ying needs me to do now, just tell me. Everyone in the Bai Family is at your disposal!”

Bai Shiyuan could not wait any longer.

As long as the family of the Bai family reached the fortress, he and his father would no longer have to worry about anything.

Even if he had to pay a greater price to go into hiding again and wait for his grandson to slowly appear, it did not matter.

The Bai family could withstand such losses and wait. As long as they could continue the bloodline of the family, everything was worth it..
