The walk was very short, only about ten minutes, before we saw the light.

The sunlight was so bright that Old Dao had to shield his eyes with his hand.

As for the ants, they were so excited they almost started dancing a dance of gratitude.

I went up first, and then brought up Old Knife and Ant, those two idiots who were just adding fuel to the fire.

I looked closely and realized that this was no longer a familiar place. It wasn't a mass grave, but a house. The key point was that there were no schools or anything like that around.

This is an unfamiliar place.

"Brother Chen, this house is quite impressive! It seems even more prestigious than the He family's!"

Looking at the huge mansion, Lao Dao couldn't help but speak up.

I looked around the house and sure enough, from afar to near, it was the home of a wealthy family. The two stone lions in front, in particular, were quite elaborate as talismans.

The overall structure is even a level higher than the He family we saw before.

However, the difference is that the plaque does not indicate whose family it belongs to, which is a little strange.

"Yes, it is indeed a bit bigger than the He family's, and besides, there's no road left!"

I looked at the house in front of me, then turned around and looked around. There were no roads around, and the only way to get through was through this house.

That's when I realized that this door was actually a back door!

This is simply unbelievable!

Even wealthy families would try to keep the back gate as simple as possible.

As a result, this one is even more outrageous than normal, as if they're afraid people won't know how grand they are.

"I can't figure out what's going on inside. So, are you going to wait here, or are you planning to come in with me?"

I looked at Old Knife and Ant, asking for their opinions.

Staying here might offer some opportunities.

But if I go in, I always feel that I will have unexpected gains.

Putting everything else aside, the book I got from Lao Luo is already showing a slight reaction.

I'm certain this house is related to Lao Luo.

In order to get information about Lao Luo, I decided to go and take a look.

"Brother Chen, if you want to go in, I'll go in with you. Ant, what do you say?"

After Lao Dao finished speaking, he looked at the ants beside him.

The ant looked at Old Knife, then at me, its mind in turmoil, probably sensing danger inside.

"It's alright, Ant, I respect your opinion!"

That's what they say, but if an ant really wants to leave, it has to leave behind its Dao aura before it leaves, and in addition to that, it also has to leave behind a portion of its blood.

Otherwise, if I don't see any ants next, it will be a huge loss for me.

"Damn, I'll listen to Brother Chen! Brother Chen, to be honest, I feel like there's something fishy about this house. We should be careful when we go in!"

The ant hesitated for a moment, but decided to stand on the same side as me. I nodded with satisfaction.

That would be best, as it would save me the trouble of doing it myself.

"Hmm, this family is definitely not normal; they might all be puppets!"

I've been aware of this for a long time.

Just as Lao Dao, Ant, and I were making our decision, the door suddenly opened.

A man dressed like a butler smiled at the three of us and strode up to us.

"We are deeply sorry for not welcoming you properly, but we hope you will forgive us!"

When the person came over quickly, he stopped two meters away from us and bowed respectfully to the three of us.

I was flattered; I never expected that such a lowly servant would be so particular.

I looked at the man closely. He was wearing a round-necked silk robe and a small blue round hat. There was even a small braid at the back of his head.

This is clearly the image of a steward from a wealthy family in the late Qing Dynasty.

When I saw this outfit, I knew we must have entered a dreamlike place.

This man, and his family, are a test for us.

"What's your name?"

I politely waved my hand and asked how I should address the man.

"Honorable guest, you flatter me. I am not worthy of a name. Just call me Lin Da. Although I am the steward of the Lin family, I am nowhere near as distinguished as you!"

Lin Da was still very polite to me.

My brow twitched slightly. The Lin family's steward?

Upon hearing this, I instinctively thought of Lin Momo. Among all the people I know with the surname Lin, Lin Momo is the only one.

If I really do enter that illusion, then it's very likely to be Lin Momo's home.

It's hard to imagine that Lin Momo's family is so powerful, at least in this illusion.

"Okay, lead the way!"

Because Old Dao was dressed in a dignified and otherworldly manner, he exuded a sense of authority. He flicked his sleeves and stepped forward.

"this?"

Seeing Lao Dao showing off like that, Lin Da looked directly at me. Lin Da could also tell who the real boss was among the three of us.

"Please lead the way, I have a few things I'd like to ask you!"

My attitude remained good, so Lin was naturally willing to talk to me.

After hearing this, Lin Da's expression indeed improved considerably.

"Honored guests, and this gentleman, please come in!"

Lin Da gestured for us to enter, addressing me and Ant as honored guests, while Old Dao was simply ignored.

Old Dao gritted his teeth, wanting to say something, but seeing me looking at him, he could only swallow his anger.
