Different from the embarrassment of Shen Ge and the others, An Ziyuan, who was being served by servants, had taken a bath and changed clothes, and was sitting in the east room reading scriptures.

After the three people were invited in, An Ziyuan politely asked them to sit down around the square table in the room, and then directly ordered An Jiachun, "Tell the story exactly."

"yes."

An Jiachun said succinctly, "Yesterday, the villain was ordered by the young master to accompany Miss Lin to Taojiazhuang in Haolian Village to rescue Mrs. Lin and her son. In the village, the villain accidentally discovered that on the wall of the dark room next to where Mrs. Lin and her son were detained, there was an inscription engraved on it. The four words 'strange things' look like Mr. Dongzhu's handwriting. The young master sent someone to Taojiazhuang last night to check it out, and found a seal in the quilt in the room."

After An Jiachun said that, An Ziyuan took out a sapphire seal the length of an adult's little finger and handed it to Fang Jiayin, "This is Mr. Dongzhu's private seal. I once bought a painting of Mr. Dongzhu with a lot of money. Mr. Dongzhu painted it on the painting." So I used this seal."

Fang Jiayin was a rough man, so he took one look at it and handed it to Uncle Ma, who then passed it on to Shen Ge. After Shen Ge checked the seal, he raised his eyes and looked at An Ziyuan, "Where is sir now?"

An Ziyuan looked directly at Shen Ge, who was across the table from him, "Last night, when the people sent by me were inspecting the dark room where Mr. was detained, they were attacked, poisoned, and injured. The assassin's left arm was also slashed. .I deduce that the assassin is closely related to the disappearance of Mr. Dongzhu. However, there was a sudden flood this morning and Hao Lian Village was submerged. This person is missing. Otherwise, I will be able to find this person and force him to find out where he is."

Both Fang Jiayin and Ma Sanshu's eyes turned to Shen Ge's injured left arm.

Shen Ge had a sharp look on his face, clenched the seal with his hand under the table, and asked again, "Where is sir now?"

An Ziyuan raised his hand, straightened his wide sleeves, and said calmly, "I have told you everything I know. Since Mrs. Lin and her son were captured by the bandits in Ma Tou Mountain and sent to Taojiazhuang, Mr. Dongzhu must have His disappearance is also related to the bandits in Ma Tou Mountain."

Feeling the tense atmosphere between the two of them, Fang Jiayin and Ma Sanshu looked at each other without saying a word. Shen Ge continued to ask, "When the young master said 'inform the whereabouts of sir' when he was in the tree, is this what he wanted to say?" "

An Ziyuan nodded, "I found Mr.'s seal and the words on the wall. Isn't that enough? After returning to my hometown and rescuing my family, I will try my best to track down Mr.'s whereabouts."

"Clang!"

Shen Ge stood up suddenly, knocked down the stool behind him, and shouted, "Do you dare to swear that you told everything you know?"

"You kid..."

They were the only ones on the mountain, and An Ziyuan also brought three thugs with him. It would not be good for them to have a standoff. Just when Fang Jiayin was about to join in a few words, An Ziyuan stood up with a serious face, pointing to the sky with three fingers of his right hand and swearing, "Xia Cai An has already told Shen Ge everything he knows about Mr. Dongzhu from far away. If he conceals anything, he will be struck by thunder and die badly."

"Click——"

Before An Ziyuan finished speaking, a thunder suddenly sounded outside. An Ziyuan's raised hand couldn't help but tremble, and his face became ugly.

Fang Jiayin said quickly, "What a coincidence! Besides, Mr. An stood here calmly after taking the oath and was not struck to death by lightning."

"Hmph! Let's see!" Shen Ge was so angry that he gritted his teeth and stamped his feet, turned around and ran out.

Uncle Ma stood up and apologized on behalf of Shen Ge, "Shen Ge has received a lot of favors from Mr. Dongzhu over the years. This kid is young and ignorant. Mr. An, don't be as knowledgeable as him."

An Ziyuan smiled gently, "We are all anxious to save my husband, how could I argue with a child just because of a few words. Brother Shen has known how to repay kindness at a young age, and he will definitely make great achievements in the future."

"If he could be born into a good family, maybe." Uncle Ma sighed, "This child has a hard life. After his father went missing in the mountains, he lived like a beggar. It was Mr. Dongzhu who taught him how to read and know. Reason, so he regards his husband as a relative. Now that his husband is also missing, he... well..."

An Ziyuan looked sympathetic and asked, "Do you know Shen Ge's father?"

Uncle Ma nodded, "When I'm not out running escorts, I also find time to go hunting in the mountains to supplement the family income. I met Shen Ge's father several times. His father is an old hunter, but for some reason... well... I won't tell you. That's all. Mr. An, please rest early while I go find Shen Ge to prevent him from getting angry and running out."

Fang Jiayin then handed over and said goodbye, but heard An Ziyuan say, "I wonder where Fang Gangshou is from?"

Fang Jiayin replied, "The villain is from Shouchun, just across the river from Xiacai County."

Such a huge flood washed down Qixian County, and Shouchunding was also affected. Fang Jiayin couldn't help but feel worried when he thought of this, and he wished he could rush home immediately.

This is easy to handle. An Ziyuan also said with a sad face, "Shuchun should be better, Xia Cai will be gone by now... I still have parents, wife and children at Xia's home, and I am very anxious at the moment. Fang Gangshou is willing to be with me Returning to my hometown? I am willing to pay two hundred taels of shipping fare."

The layout of the west courtyard is the same as that of the east courtyard where Lin Ruyu lives. An Ziyuan lives in the east room, Fang Jiayin and Ma Sanshu live in the west room, An Ziyuan's three guards rest in the main room, and Shen Ge and Shengzi stay in the east wing.

Shen Ge ran out of the main room and glared at An Juchun who was scratching his itch, then ran to the kitchen in the rain.

In the kitchen, Shengzi was sitting barefoot by the fire, drying his own clothes and shoes. Because their luggage was lost, he and Shen Ge only had one piece of clothes left. After taking a shower, they wring out the water and put them back on.

Seeing Shen Ge staring at the fire in a daze after returning, Shengzi came up and asked in a low voice, "Brother, didn't you ask about the whereabouts of your husband?"

"He doesn't know much." Shen Ge didn't want to worry about his son, so he took off his shoes and put them on the hot ground by the fire. "I put our burdens on It's stuck in a crack in the stone and it shouldn't be flushed away. I'll go get it back tomorrow."

Shengzi's eyes were shining, "I'll go with my brother. Let's walk around Haolian Village twice. Maybe we can fish out many good things from the water!"

Before Shen Ge could answer, Uncle Ma walked in from the outside and signaled his son to guard the door. Then he pretended to lecture Shen Ge for a few words, and then said in a very low voice, "This man is really slippery and difficult to deal with. .There are so many of them, we can’t act rashly.”

Shen Ge also lowered his voice and replied, "Third uncle, he is definitely not 'going to Cai'an to stay away from home', otherwise he would not have sworn a poisonous oath."

"I asked you why you suddenly lost your temper. It turned out that you wanted to deceive him." Uncle Ma's eyes were solemn, "Who is he and why did he want to arrest Mr.? This person is not easy to deal with..."

There was a smile in Shen Ge's eyes, "No matter who he is, we have at least made one important point clear now: Sir, he is still alive!"

Uncle Ma San also laughed silently, and then said worriedly, "I don't know where Mr. was taken. This flood..."
