Cui Weizhen's agreement for her to follow the team up the mountain meant that she would not encounter any dangers along the way. In other words, the possibility of her meeting Cui Weizhen was almost non-existent.
Ye Zhenzhen also knew that there was little hope and carefully identified various traces along the way. Unfortunately, she was not Sherlock Holmes and could not deduce the possible development from the clues. She could only drag her tired body and follow the guide towards Cui Weizhen.
The so-called foothold.
Ye Zhenzhen had numerous ideas when she came here, but she never expected that it would be the scene before her——
The path in the mountains is quiet and remote, and there are many old and new footprints on the dirt. The most obvious thing on the road is a very messy set of footsteps. The footprints are large, and the imprints are still moist with the soil. They only look like a quarter of an hour or two.
From the looks of it, they should be the forerunners of Magistrate Shi and the men in black.
Ye Zhenzhen didn't know Cui Weizhen's specific arrangements yet, so she was very anxious when she saw this. Regardless of her physical fatigue, she walked quickly towards her residence. Various scenes of rivers of blood or swords and halberds facing each other appeared in her mind. However, the calmness in front of her made her feel...
A moment of sluggishness.
Quiet.
It is so quiet here. Except for the occasional chirping of birds in the mountains, there are almost no other discordant sounds. It is so quiet that it can be called peaceful. There are even bursts of smoke rising from the chimney of the wooden house.
It doesn't look like a battleground, but rather like a paradise.
Ye Zhenzhen's stiff head slowly turned around after a long time, wondering in disbelief, how could there be anyone in this room? Is it Cui Weizhen? This is obviously unreasonable. Could it be someone else?
Before she could figure out the reason, the closed door was suddenly opened from the inside, and a young man in his twenties walked out. This man had a dignified appearance and extraordinary bearing. When he saw the stranger outside the door,
He was not surprised at all, and even asked proactively: "You are also here to see Cui Weizhen?"
also?
Ye Zhenzhen's eyes lit up, and she didn't care to think about the identity of this person, and quickly asked: "Has anyone looked for Cui Weizhen before us? When did they come? Where are they now?"
The young master glanced at her lightly: "Who are you? Why should I tell you? I don't welcome uninvited guests. Please leave, master."
Ye Zhenzhen paused, and couldn't tell for a moment whether this young man was the one arranged by Cui Weizhen, or whether this young man actually lived here and was suspected by Cui Weizhen.
However, based on her understanding of Cui Weizhen, he would not casually involve unprovoked people in danger. If the men in black really came after hearing the news, they would need someone to lure them into the trap. If they were not careful,
, it is very likely that the other party will kill him to vent his anger...
Thinking of this, Ye Zhenzhen calmed down, looked at the government servants who were still walking slowly behind, and asked straight to the point: "Did Wei Zhen tell you to stop me?"
The young man's face suddenly changed slightly, and his long eyelashes covered the emotions in his eyes. He said lightly: "Young Master, I don't understand what you are talking about. The man in black who came to inquire before didn't know at first glance.
People who are easy to mess with, why do you need to find out where they are going? There is no one you are looking for here, so get down the mountain as soon as possible."
Qian Captou and others arrived slowly, and just in time to hear the last sentence, a look of surprise appeared on his face, and he said loudly: "What? Mr. Cui is not here?"
