Meng Cheng quickly hid what Governor Wu gave her in a small underground room she built for herself inside her house. Inside the room was filled with shelves of book she had diligently reread and read everyday making the book worn out, pages yellowed. Governor Wu had helped her a lot ever since young, covering up for her and supplying her with the necessities she needed although she did not know why, but still she cannot really trust him in case people who she trust betrayed her.

She redid her bandages and wore simple clothes but enough to keep her away from the cold. Although she is only fifteen years old she knew what she needed to do. She washed her face, tied her hair in a tight bun and sat on a small wooden chair in the underground room.

She herself have many secret for for example her body.Her body constitution is different from others. Injuries that may take a few months to heal only took a few days to heal and she secretly trains martial arts . To avoid suspicion she mostly acts as a weak and timid girl. Also, she mostly slip out of the residence to collect medicinal herbs and food. That was where she found the little eagle which she has yet to name. As she stepped out of the underground room she heard a knock on the door and after a while the door immediately pushed open with a person standing there.
