There were no classes in the evening, so Lin Wu returned to Xijin Mansion.

Bo Yuting was not there at the moment, so Lin Wu went straight upstairs to the study and looked through the experimental content that Chen Yue gave her.

As I was watching, my cell phone rang.

Lin Wu glanced and saw that it was Cheng Man’s number.

She picked it up and answered: "Hello? Is that Cheng Man or Zheng Mingxian this time?"

"Mingxian? Has he ever looked for you before?" Cheng Man's surprised voice sounded.

Lin Wu was not surprised and said casually: "Yes, otherwise why do you think I went directly to Xuanmen to find someone? You should have known that I have met your father."

Mentioning this, Cheng Man's face became more serious: "I know. My father had been keeping me at home for a few days. He came back this morning and released me from house arrest, allowing me to contact people outside. I asked him and found out that you had met my father. Then I went to find Mingxian first. Uncle Huang, who didn't see him but just followed him, gave me the phone card I replaced for him and the things I had previously stored with him."

Lin Wu couldn't help but stop and lean back.

She said, "You didn't see him? What's going on? He's the one being grounded now? Is this some weird tacit understanding between the two of you? You're grounded, and he wants to be grounded too to experience how you feel?"

"Ah?" Cheng Man was stunned and said blankly: "What do you mean by house arrest? Mingxian is not under house arrest."

Lin Wu said, "Then you said you didn't see him."

Cheng Man explained to Lin Wu: "I really didn't see him. But that's because he left and went to Lingnan."

Lin Wu sat up straighter after hearing this, frowned and asked, "What is he doing in Lingnan?"

"I don't know." Cheng Man answered honestly, "Uncle Huang didn't intend to tell me at first. I begged him and he told me Mingxian's whereabouts. Uncle Huang also said that Mingxian met Uncle Zheng before he left and stayed with Uncle Zheng for a whole night. I don't know what they talked about, but he left this morning."

Lin Wu frowned.

This happened after she reminded Zheng Mingxian.

Lin Wu asked: "Then why did you call me?"

"It's like this. My father asked for the murals in the Damaya underground palace. I hadn't told him yet, but he knew about it, so I guessed you told him. But when I asked him what the murals he had studied before contained, he wouldn't tell me. I know my father, he must be hiding something from me."

Cheng Man's tone was very puzzling, and then he continued: "So I came to ask you, when you met my father, did he tell you what you wanted to know? If he did, I would give him the mural. If he didn't, I would definitely not give it to him unless he tells the truth."

Lin Wu was delighted: "You are really a filial son to your father. Give it to him. He has already told me. He didn't tell you because he probably didn't want you to get involved. Just take care of your injuries and don't ask any more questions."

"OK."

Cheng Man agreed immediately, just as she had heard Cheng Wenwei and Zheng Mingxian say before, and listened to Lin Wu.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Wu dialed Zheng Mingxian's number.

But I couldn't get through several times.

There happened to be a computer at hand, so Lin Wu pulled the keyboard over and started operating.

A satellite map page soon appeared on the screen. After several positioning and tracking steps, a jumping red dot appeared.

Looking at the name displayed above, Lin Wu's eyes darkened.

"Zhangjia Village..."

Isn't this the place that Zheng Mingxian mentioned when she asked him about the source of the materials for the poisonous brand made by the Huo family in North City?

How did he end up back there? Was it related to his question about Zheng Dangjia's blood vine? Lin Wu thought for a moment and forwarded the location he found to Bai Jing, who he hadn't contacted for a long time.

And attach a message.

[Help me keep an eye on this person and see what he does over there. ]

After a pause, Lin Wu added: [Five more days, I'll go over.]

After sending it, Lin Wu closed his phone and continued to look at the information.

Before she knew it, night fell. When Lin Wu realized that time had passed, Bo Yuting came back upstairs to find her. He knocked on the study door to remind her, and then pushed the door open and came in.

The man walked closer and asked in a gentle voice.

Lin Wu looked up at him, stretched, and said, "Afternoon."

Bo Yuting looked at the messy drafts and books on her desk, which were also piled on the floor. He frowned slightly and asked, "You've been busy until now, and you haven't eaten yet?"

Lin Wu nodded.

The man sighed slightly, "What do you want to eat?"

Lin Wu immediately named a few dishes.

"Then come here, come down with me and move around. Don't stay busy in the study all the time. It's not good for your health." Bo Yuting stretched out his hand to her.

Lin Wu had almost seen enough, so he stood up obediently and told him about Zheng Mingxian when he went downstairs.

Bo Yuting understood immediately: "You want to go see Mr. Zheng of Shixing to ask about what happened back then?"

Lin Wu had this idea, but was still a little hesitant.

She has been exposed to too much in the past two days, and too much is as bad as too little. It will make some people realize that something is wrong and become alert.

After a moment, she shook her head: "I'll wait a few days to see what Zheng Mingxian is doing in Lingnan, and then decide whether to go find Mr. Zheng."

The two went downstairs. Bo Yuting was going to the kitchen, but he turned around inadvertently and saw Lin Wu following him with his hands in his pockets.

"What are you doing here?" Bo Yuting asked with a smile, "I'm cooking, and you can just play games over there. You stay with me in the kitchen, and I keep thinking about you. It's better for you to stay and cook by yourself."

After hearing this, Lin Wu really went back.

But he was pulled back by Bo Yuting again.

"Now that we've come here, there's no reason to regret and go back."

Lin Wu looked at him and said, "You are so fickle."

The man laughed, "I can't help it, my boyfriend has no principles."

Lin Wu hummed, then thought of something and followed him to the kitchen obediently. She sat at the bar, peeling oranges and talking to him. Her eyes were always on Bo Yuting, as if she would miss him the less she saw him.

Bo Yuting noticed that she kept looking at him, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Am I so beautiful?"

Lin Wu nodded, and called out to Bo Yuting so directly that he was stunned for a moment.

He covered the pot of soup, turned around and walked to Lin Wu, rubbed her head and asked, "What's wrong? You're so well behaved tonight."

Lin Wu did not answer but asked: "What did you do today?"

Bo Yuting did not hide it from her: "Find someone to ask the management bureau near the Blackback Mountain in Qinghai-Gansu in the northwest to verify what Cheng Wenwei said and what has happened in the Blackback Mountain over the past decade. Once the news comes in, we can start preparing to go there."

After a pause, he continued, "Of course, I also went to meet some of my master's old friends and asked them about my master's past."

Lin Wu asked, "Did you find out anything?"

Bo Yuting shook his head.

Lin Wu squeezed his palms and said casually, "I am also waiting for news from Zheng Mingxian in Lingnan. When the news comes, I will probably go to take a look. In this case, let's separate and not go together. You go to the northwest, and I'll go to Lingnan."

Bo Yuting was slightly surprised. "Separate? Why? I can accompany you to Lingnan first."

Lin Wu shook his head: "Let's go separately to save time. Besides, my tattoo may be found in the northwest. If you go, I will feel more at ease and I will feel at ease in Lingnan."

It must be said that sometimes Lin Wu knew how to take advantage of Bo Yuting.

Hearing that the little girl trusted him so much, Bo Yuting was so happy that he forgot everything and just nodded in agreement with her.
