Chapter 930: Expert (5)
Ben Yue said, "We servants are also very puzzled. Even the young master can't explain it."
"Where are the brother and sister now?" Luo Tan asked.
"Because there were so many curious people, my sister felt annoyed. Later, when she was old enough to leave the palace, she moved away from Longye with her brother. No one knows where they went." Benyue said, "Speaking of which, she drew a picture of the place where the master lived for me. I returned it to the young master. He took people to see it, but found no house at all, only a deserted piece of land. Thinking that the man must have moved away, or that my sister had misremembered it, she left. In the end, she never got to meet the master."
Luo Tan pondered for a moment, then suddenly asked, "Do you still have a map of the master's place?"
"Yes, yes," Ben Yue nodded. "Almost everyone in this mansion has one. So many people were curious back then, and everyone wanted to ask that person to change their fate, to see if they could get a rich and prosperous future, but in the end, they all came back empty-handed."
Luo Tan asked, "Then get it for me."
"What do you want this for?" Ben Yue suddenly thought of something and said in a lost voice, "You don't want to go to that expert, do you? It's been many years since the incident with my sister's brother, and I don't know if he is still alive. Besides, the young master couldn't find him at the time, you..." She said, "I didn't mean to ask you to find that expert to find a solution." Ben Yue regretted it deeply. She told Luo Tan about this to comfort him. Look, the little brother was predicted to live no more than three days, but he survived in the end, let alone Prince Rui? Who knew that Luo Tan didn't follow the usual path at all, but was looking for that expert. If the expert was really that easy to find, wouldn't everyone be able to find him? What's the point of being busy here? Gao Yang wouldn't have gone to refine the medicine himself.
Luo Tan shook his head. "Just show me what it is. I don't necessarily need to go find that expert. I just feel really bad sitting here doing nothing. Regardless of whether I go or not, or whether I find it or not, at least I've done my best for my brother-in-law and little cousin. I'm not a useless person, and that will make me feel much better."
Having said that, Ben Yue had no reason to refuse. She quickly left and returned, handing Luo Tan a map embroidered on a handkerchief. She said shyly, "I'm not a good painter, and I can't read, but I can embroider. I made one based on your drawing, Miss. Could you please see if you can understand it?"
Fortunately, Luo Tan had been wandering around every day since arriving in Longye. The more remote the place, the more interested he was. Although he had only been in Longye for a short time, he was very familiar with all the roads. He jumped up as soon as he saw it and said, "Isn't this south of Fengtouzhuang outside the west city?"
Ben Yue was stunned. "Young lady, you know this too?" She continued, "My little sister told me that after passing Fengtou Manor, if you keep walking south, you'll see the houses at the bottom of the mountain. But when you and your men went there, and some people went there later, the area south of Fengtou Manor was clearly just a broken wall. There was no mountain bottom, and no houses at all."
Luo Tan stared at the map and said, "Fengtou Village is not far from here. We can get there in one day if we ride fast."
Ben Yue said: "Miss, you can't..."
"I'm going to look for my little cousin," Luo Tan said, "You stay here."
Benyue was a little worried that Luo Tan would really go to find that expert who she didn't know whether he was real or fake, but then she changed her mind and thought that if Luo Tan was unreliable, the Princess of Rui must be reliable and would definitely not fool around with Luo Tan. Thinking that Luo Tan would feel better because of this, she felt relieved.
