"Then Clan Master, should we stay in the Cloud Town or go there?" Qian Shan asked Wen Yi.

What happened on the side of the Ke Prefecture was a mystery that could not be solved, and what happened on the Cloud Town was even more important to the lives of dozens of girls.

"To the Texas." After Wen Yi finished speaking softly, she turned around and left. Qian Shan and Li Changan followed behind her, deep in thought.

"I feel that this matter is closely related to the Texas's matter, and could possibly be just the tip of the iceberg. With so many rumors spreading around right now, Song Yunli probably wouldn't commit any crimes, so the female Children here is still safe for the time being." Wen Yi softly explained his guess, causing Qian Shan and the others to nod their heads.

According to Song Yunli's caution, how could he act at such a sensitive time? If he acted now, then it would be somewhere else, so relatively speaking, it was more likely that there would be a problem with the Texas.

With the matters of the Cloud Town on their minds, none of them dared to delay their journey to the Texas.

Because the Cloud Town had wasted their time, they arrived at Texas in the evening. When they passed by the County Magistrate's Hall, they saw a dense crowd of people gathered at the County Magistrate's Hall.

Before coming to the Ke Prefecture, the Uncle Man had already sent the information regarding the Ke Prefecture to Wen Yi. She remembered that there were no mines in the Ke Prefecture.

She brought Thousand Mountain Li Changan and the others and squeezed into the crowd. Not long later, they arrived at the entrance of the county magistrate court, and at this time, they basically found out the whole story from the discussions of the others.

Someone was beating the drum and calling the shots, and it was a village that was old, weak, and handicapped.

They said that all the young men in the village had been taken to the mines for over a year, but there was no news of them since they left. They knelt at the entrance of the county magistrate's office and asked the government to bring them back.

Wen Yi looked at the people kneeling in front of him. There were some that were young, some that were elderly, and some other that were helpless. They all stared at the entrance of the yamen anxiously, waiting for the arrival of the county magistrate, as if he was their savior.

Not far away, beside the Dengwen Drum, stood a person who looked like a bailiff, looking at the person in front of him with a helpless expression.

"Sir, they've been kneeling here for such a long time. Why are you still reporting to them? Do they really have to wait for their lives to appear?" Qian Shan couldn't help but ask.

Wen Yi knew clearly that Qian Shan was not lying. If the old people and children here didn't drink and eat, they probably wouldn't be able to hold on for long, so she placed her hope on the bailiff, but the bailiff only looked at Qian Shan helplessly and said: "You must be an outsider, don't you know, our Texas doesn't have any mines, so we really don't have anywhere to look for them? They really seem to be talking nonsense."

He also knew that the outsiders in the Texas would misunderstand their government, but they really had no other choice. As long as there was a mine, they would definitely help them find it.

"Sir, we will not speak without any proof. Some people came to our village and said that they needed people in the mines, and only after paying ten taels of silver a year would our sons and wives follow them to work. But they have been gone for more than a year, and they have not returned, and they have not sent back any money. The old man's face was pale and his hair was stuck to his wrinkled face. The sadness and despair in his eyes made one's heart ache.

"Old lady, please don't make things difficult for us. The mine you are talking about is truly ridiculous. We really don't know where it is, nor do we know how to help you find your son. We …" The bailiff was about to go crazy because of these words. He explained in a soft voice, but the words of explanation became more and more uncertain due to the persistence of this group of people.

If a man is nonsense, what about a village? Their husbands and sons were gone, but where were they going to find the mines?

"Our county magistrate has already sent people to find the place you told us to do so. If there is any news, we will definitely inform you as soon as possible. It's getting late, so you should go back first." The bailiff's voice carried a hint of a request.

"Lord Qingtian, you have to find him, or else we really won't be able to live anymore. It doesn't matter if I die or if I die. I'm worried that my grandson won't have anyone to take care of and nurture him. I …" Another old lady stood up and started speaking. Before she could finish, tears had already started rolling down her cheeks. It was a sad sight to behold.

"Let the people from the secret door investigate as well." Let the people from the secret door investigate as well. Wen Yi saw that the bailiff did not seem to be lying, but she still felt that it was strange. She felt that this matter was not as simple as it seemed.

"Alright, I'll arrange it immediately." Qian Shan replied softly. His eyes were fixed on Old woman, who had just spoken. She slowly got up and walked towards the bailiff. Her steps were unsteady. She staggered forward and almost fell down a few times.

"This official, please tell the county magistrate that we really are not making things difficult for the people. I really don't have a son." "I beg of you to let the county magistrate help me find my grandson. I really can't raise him anymore." Old woman walked in front of the bailiff and begged.

That bailiff could only nod. If possible, he also wanted to find the mine and find the person they were looking for.

After the Old woman finished speaking, he knelt down before the bailiff, who hurriedly stepped forward to support his. However, before he could reach his, she had already stood up and rushed towards the county magistrate's gate.

"Not good." However, she was still a step too slow. By the time she rushed to the door of the county magistrate court, the Old woman had already slammed into the gate of the court. Blood was flowing out from the top of Old woman's head, and at the place where she had crashed earlier, a stream of bright red blood was flowing out.

"Why do you have to suffer?" Qian Shan quickly bent over and hugged Old woman. The Old woman smiled at Qian Shan and whispered, "Miss, you are a capable person. Please save my son.

"Sovereign, Sovereign." Qian Shan couldn't help but shed tears when she heard Old woman's words. She cried and called out to Wen Yi, but she could feel that Old woman's life was slipping away. She wanted Wen Yi to save her, to save this pitiful mother.

She was using her life to tell the county magistrate and everyone else that they were not lying, that their son had really gone to the mines.

Wen Yi went up to diagnose Old woman, but her pulse was already weak, if she was not wrong, Old woman's body would already be in a very bad condition. Even if she did not hit the door, his body would already be as dry as oil.
