Chapter 285 Shen Family Abandoned House
During the time when people came to the capital, Yin Miao once took Xiangrui for a walk outside Shangyun City, but Xiangrui kept flapping her wings to remind Yin Miao that there were people around her.
"That is to say, the outside of the city is already covered with eyeliner."
Sun Zili thinks that Xiangrui is a very magical bird, and he can remind outsiders from time to time, and Xiao Xuan and Yin Miao seem to have a lot of trust in this bird.
"How about that, we haven't dug the secret road yet, in case they discover the route of His Royal Highness King Xuan..."
Huang E was anxious, the supplies he had pulled last time were almost bottoming out, but someone was holding hands outside.
"As far as I know, the secret passage has already led to the outside of the city." Xiao Xuan asked, and the secret passage was only a few roads from Shangyun City to the outside of the city.
"That's right, but the secret path is still filled with earth and stone, it has not been repaired, and it is difficult."
Huang E is the person responsible for building the secret road, but this secret road is not easy to dig.
"It's okay, my people will find a way by themselves, and this matter is left to me."
Xiao Xuan answered with ease, which made Xiao Xianxian who was present had to wonder what power was behind Xiao Xuan. This is definitely not something that can be accomplished by a hundred people.
"Ninth brother, don't force it."
Sun Zili said.
"The people in the city are important."
Xiao Xuan said that there is no doubt that the secret road is connected to the mysterious business. In fact, he has long wanted to use the secret road for this reason.
So in the Xuanmiao business that night, Yin Miao easily took out the supplies, and they no longer had to do a show to show the whole city.
"How many exits does this secret passage have?"
Yin Miao asked while holding the flour.
"Twelve, in different places outside the city."
Xiao Xuan replied that it was because there were too many exits in the secret passage, so it took a month for the repairs to be completed.
"It's really hard for them."
The people who dig the secret way are all trusted by Sun Zili, but Yin Miao felt that they had worked so hard to dig so many ways, but Xiao Xuan and her did not plan to use them, and suddenly felt a little distressed for them.
"There is always an excuse to feed people."
Xiao Xuan felt that it was fine. It was impossible to feed so many people in the city for nothing, so it was unreasonable.
The two of them were busy in the warehouse of the firm until the sky was light, and then Yin Miao hurriedly dragged Xiao Xuan back to the City Lord's Mansion.
Huang Tiancheng would come to the business to clean up every day before dawn, and she was also worried about running into him.
Speaking of Huang Tiancheng, Yin Miao still felt that meeting him was a kind of fate. He found the owner of the silver note, and the owner of the silver note turned out to be a woman named Mu Yan.
The most coincidental thing is that Xiao Xuan's father left with his confidante.
His confidante's name is Muyan...
The answer seemed to come out, and Xiao Xuan was silent for a long time.
Father Xiao's disappearance is very likely to have something to do with the Shen family.
Originally, they planned to go to the abandoned house of the Shen family to look for clues, but they were interrupted by Liu Hongye and others who suddenly came from the capital, which delayed so many days.
"A Miao, hurry up and go back to rest." Xiao Xuan said after arriving at the City Lord's Mansion.
"Are you going to the Shen family's abandoned house?" Yin Miao asked.
Xiao Xuan nodded, although the Shen family's abandoned house was completely removed when the house was ransacked, and after so many years, it is almost impossible to find any clues.
However, he still wanted to figure this out before returning to the capital.
"I'm going with you."
Yin Miao said, after all, this is related to the plot mission, how could she be missing?
Seeing that Yin Miao had been insisting, Xiao Xuan was also a little helpless, so he had to promise her to wait for the two to rest for a while before going to the Shen family's abandoned house.
Just in case, Yin Miao brought a human skin mask from Qi Lingxi made by Master Chen Rushi before going there.
"It's somewhat similar."
Xiao Xuan smiled at Yin Miao who was trying on the mask in the space.
It turned out that Yin Miao planned to go to the temple where Qi Lingxi lived by herself to find out, but the temple had already been razed to the ground, and the mask had been idle.
"Maybe it's useless to take it with you, so how could there be someone who recognizes her in the Shen family's abandoned house."
Yin Miao said without any hope.
"Come on, it's an unexpected clue to find the owner of the silver note."
Xiao Xuan comforted.
…
Because of the large area of Shangyun City, it is not uncommon to have a vacant house, and since all the Shen family members have been beheaded, the people think it is an ominous house. So no one has come close for so long.
The two found the Shen family's abandoned house on a wasteland. It can be seen that the original overgrown weeds here have been eaten up because of the famine, leaving only the bare surface.
"Go in, the people behind you have been thrown away."
Xiao Xuan said.
Every time the two of them came out, there would be someone secretly following behind them. After going around the city a few times, they finally got rid of them.
"I don't know if it's from Wang Yixiu or from the capital."
Yin Miao picked up her long skirt and stepped in. She found that the threshold of the Shen family was really high.
"neither."
Xiao Xuan replied.
"In other words, the group of people from the capital were followed by other people?"
Yin Miao guessed.
"Um."
Xiao Xuan blocked the dust falling from the door for Yin Miao. It was obvious that no one had been here for a long time, the ground was covered with thick dust, and every step would leave deep footprints.
Yin Miao walked into the main hall of the mansion along the road. The wooden doors on both sides lay quietly on the ground, and the mottled paintings on the walls could no longer be seen as they were.
"Even the tables and chairs were taken away."
Yin Miao felt that they might not find anything today.
"Go back and take a look."
Xiao Xuan was unwilling to let go of every corner. Although the Shen family's mansion was not as large as the City Lord's Mansion, it was divided into several side courtyards. The two of them searched for a long time and still found nothing.
"Let's go back."
In the end, even Xiao Xuan thought they couldn't find any clues.
"Looks like someone is coming."
Yin Miao did not bring auspiciousness with her, but she sensitively heard the footsteps of someone.
The footsteps were a bit harsh, and gradually even Xiao Xuan heard it.
In a hurry, Yin Miao put on the human skin mask, then lowered her head and followed behind Xiao Xuan.
The person who came was a scrawny old lady. She couldn't lift her feet when she walked, and the ground was not smooth, so she made a louder noise.
The two had put down the guard in their eyes, Yin Miao was about to ask her why she was here, but the old man opened her mouth first.
She was obviously a little excited and said, "But girl Yue is back?"
Moon girl?
Xiao Xuan originally thought that the old man was mistaken, but heard Yin Miao reply, "I'm Yueyue, you are..."
Qi Lingxi's original name was Shen Yueyue. Could it be that this old lady was talking about Shen Yueyue? Thinking of this, Yin Miao hurriedly answered in a concentrated and intelligent way.
