Chapter 932: Amazing (1)
Tieyi and the others had not expected that Shen Miao would come up with such an idea at this critical moment. Although Fengtou Manor was not far from Longye, it would still take two days to go back and forth even if they rode at full speed. What could happen on the way? The most important thing was that apart from hearing the one-sided story of the Gao family siblings, no one had ever seen the legendary master, so no one knew whether it was true or not. It was too irrational and naive for Shen Miao to go look for someone whose existence was unknown.
But Shen Miao seemed to be determined. She told Uncle Tang what to do in the next few days and then took Luo Tan out. Before leaving, she also told her and Luo Tan's outing not to be spread outside.
After disguising himself, he set off with Star Anise, Mo Qing Congyang, and Luo Tan.
Because he was wearing a bamboo hat and ordinary clothes, no one recognized him. The Prince Rui's Mansion was always good at disguises. Although Tie Yi was a little worried, when Shen Miao became stern, even Shen Qiu didn't dare to stop her easily, let alone these servants.
Looking at Shen Miao’s departing figure, Uncle Tang asked, “This… can Madam find someone?”
Tieyi shook his head: "It's better to be willing to try than not to be willing at all. At least he is a man who values righteousness." He turned around and instructed the others: "Keep the fact that Madam has left the house a secret from me. If the news leaks out, you will bear the consequences!"
In the carriage, Luo Tan looked at Shen Miao and said, "Little cousin, why don't you get some sleep? You haven't had a good rest these past few days. You've been traveling non-stop, so you should take a break first."
Shen Miao's mind was a little confused. The carriage was shaking, and although she had no intention of resting, what Luo Tan said made sense. If she didn't rest well, it would delay things later, which would be bad. So she closed her eyes drowsily and dozed off.
She didn't know why, but this sleep felt exceptionally long. Shen Miao had originally set out in the afternoon, and when she woke up, she was shaken awake. She opened her eyes drowsily, only to see Luo Tan looking at her and saying, "Little cousin, wake up, we're here."
Shen Miao followed Luo Tan down from the carriage. It was already the afternoon of the second day, towards dusk. The carriage stopped in a wasteland. The branches growing there, perhaps unattended, stretched out in a crisscross pattern, almost obscuring the sky. In June, even in the evening, there was always daylight, but here it seemed eerie and dark, without even a hint of warmth. It was a strangely frightening sight.
Mo Qing and Cong Yang also frowned. Cong Yang said, "What kind of a hellish place is this? There's not even a single person here."
"I heard that this used to be an embroidery shop. They were best at embroidering a phoenix tail pattern. But later on, the embroidery shop gradually declined and the shop was abandoned." Bajiao was a gossip-monger and explained immediately.
Luo Tan looked up and down, left and right, and then opened the handkerchief with the map embroidered on it and said, "But there should be a path embroidered on this map, but there is no path here."
Everyone came together to take a look, and sure enough, the map was quite clear. There was a small path in front of Fengtou Village, and walking in from the path, there were fields and houses.
But there are no houses or fields here, not even the shadow of a path.
"Why is there not even a single person here? It seems like no one has been here for a long time." Luo Tan asked, "Could it be that the grass has grown and covered the road, so we can't see it?"
Mo Qing and Cong Yang looked around and shook their heads: "Not really."
Star Anise and Fennel also took a look. Fennel said, "This forest is too big. After the sun sets, it will be easy to get lost if we walk in the forest. There may be other wild animals. We are not very familiar with the roads here. Madam, you see..."
