Cheng Mubei looked back at the smiling Guardian Zuo, and curled his lips, "Why not?"

"Where do you want to look first?"

Cheng Mubei said, "Let's go to Shen's house first, based on what I know about Brother Shen, he will definitely go back." The two rushed towards Shen's house all the way, Cheng Mubei didn't want to idle around, and Zuo Hufa didn't care. Just follow along.

The Shen family was sandwiched between the Prison Valley and the Cliff of Life and Death, so it was difficult for the Shen family to be forced to the point where all trade routes were cut off under the oppression of the two forces.

The gate of the Shen family is very simple, with the word "Shen family" written on the plaque above the gate, and there is no one guarding the gate.Cheng Mubei walked over and knocked on the door, looked at Guardian Zuo, "Let's bet whether Shen Can will see me?"

"Yes." Guardian Zuo replied without thinking.

Cheng Mubei smiled, "Oh?"

"If you're not sure about going in, you won't come." As soon as Guardian Zuo finished speaking, someone opened the door.

A skinny young man came out of the door, looked at Cheng Mubei and Zuo Hufa timidly, but pretended to be fierce and shouted, "Who are you? What are you here for?"

Cheng Mubei held back his smile, and pretended to be serious and handed a token to the young man, "Funanzhuang came to visit the head of the family, Shen Can, and hope to inform you."

The young man looked at the token, frowned and looked at Cheng Mubei, before answering after a while, "Wait outside the door."

Zuo Hufa watched the young man close the door again with amused expression, then turned his head to Cheng Mubei, "This kid is a bit stupid." Funan Village is also well-known in the Jianghu, and it was too late for a small sect like the Shen family to curry favor with him. He shut them out.

After a while, the young man opened the door again sadly.

An old man came out from the door. The old man had already hunched his back. He stopped not far from Cheng Mubei and Zuo Hufa, and tried to straighten his back.His hair was neatly combed, and his clothes were tidy. He saluted Cheng Mubei and Zuo Hufa, "Welcome to the distinguished guest. Please forgive me for being ignorant. Our master is still retreating. If the distinguished guests don't mind, please come in and have a seat." Have a sip of tea."

Cheng Mubei and Zuo Hufa looked at each other, and smiled at the old man, "That's troublesome."

The old man also smiled politely, made a "please" gesture, and bowed to let Cheng Mubei and Zuo Hufa go first.Cheng Mubei didn't refuse either, and went to Shen's house first.

Shen's house is full of green cobblestone roads, with bamboo forests and bushes in good order, and small lakes and streams interspersed among them.Under the guidance of Xiao Sang, Cheng Mubei and Zuo Hufa walked to a courtyard house with green walls and black tiles, which had a special flavor in the bamboo forest.

The old man followed behind, "The distinguished guests are invited to rest here."

Cheng Mubei looked around and asked the old man, "Shen Jiansheng, Brother Shen and I are old acquaintances, and I have been kind to me, I would like to ask if Brother Shen is at home?

The old man didn't look surprised, and smiled apologetically, "I've disappointed you, the Shen family doesn't have such a good person."

"There are rumors in the world that Shen Jiansheng was expelled from the Shen family. I still don't believe it, but I never thought it was true." Cheng Mubei didn't bother to go around and said straightforwardly, "I brought Funan Village to invite the Shen family to participate in the Youth Conference this time. Since Shen The Patriarch is still in seclusion, so I will eat and drink with a shy face for a few days."

Zuo Hufa looked at the shameless Cheng Mubei in surprise, and followed him without saying a word.The old man's expression didn't change, he just smiled kindly, "Your guest is joking, I will definitely notify you when the Patriarch leaves the customs."

"Then trouble you."

Cheng Mubei and Zuo Hufa stayed in under the guidance of servants, Zuo Hufa put away his things and knocked in front of Cheng Mubei's door.The door was not closed, Cheng Mubei answered inside, "Come in."

Cheng Mubei buried his head, not knowing what he was doing, he didn't even raise his head.Zuo Hufa pulled away the stool opposite Cheng Mubei, sat down and saw Cheng Mubei adjusting the bottle of medicine.

"aphrodisiac?"

Cheng Mubei said "Yes", "I prepared it for you."

"Oh? Are you afraid of being eaten by me?"

Only then did Cheng Mubei look up at Guardian Zuo, "I'm afraid you won't be able to take it." After he finished speaking, he straightened his face, "This is *, the right dose can make people tell the truth."

"Do you think the Shen family knows Shen Jiansheng's whereabouts?" Zuo Hufa raised his eyebrows.Cheng Mubei neither admitted nor denied, and continued to tinker with his medicine.Guardian Zuo didn't bother him either, and looked at Cheng Mubei with his chin in his hand.

Cheng Mubei seemed to be a little thinner, with a slight stubble on his lips. He didn't have the suave and coquettish air when they met for the first time, but he seemed calmer.

When Cheng Mubei finished fiddling and raised his head, he happened to meet the eyes of the upper left guardian, which made him tremble in fright, "Are you staring at the lighting with both eyes?" .”

"Why don't you lose money?" Cheng Mubei waved his hand at the left protector, signaling that he can go out, "Hurry up, I'm going to sleep."

Zuo Hufa looked at the bright sky outside, curled his lips, "You are always getting old."

After Guardian Zuo went out, Cheng Mubei lay on the bed in a daze.Shen Can must have not retreated, and it is hard to say when he will show up.Cheng Mubei really wanted to live here for a month or two, but he didn't believe that Shen Can could hold back, but Beiyuan had a lot of things planned for him, and he didn't dare to delay.

Brother Shen, you will really give me problems.Cheng Mubei fell asleep in a daze after thinking about it. He hasn't slept well since he woke up from a coma.

The service of the Shen family is very good, three meals a day are delivered, and even the washing is assigned to take care of it.Cheng Mubei stayed for two days, but Shen Can still didn't move.When Xiao Sang came to deliver the meal, Cheng Mubei couldn't hold back anymore, and asked Xiao Sang with a smile, "Where did you young master Shen live before?"

Xiao Sang was stunned, and the old housekeeper told him that if this person asked Shen Jiansheng, he would kill him. There was no such person in the Shen family, but when this person asked Master Shen, he showed an admiring smile, "Master Shen Puze, he lives..." Xiao Sang Before Sang finished speaking, Cheng Mubei interrupted him, "Shen Puze is the only one in the Shen family?"

Shen Puze is Shen Can's son and Shen Jiansheng's elder brother.From Xiaosang's reaction, Cheng Mubei could imagine Shen Jiansheng's days in Shen's house, an inexplicable unhappiness welled up from the bottom of his heart, and he didn't know if Shen Jiansheng's head was short, and he could stay in Shen's house for so long!

Xiao Sang shut up very unhappy, and prepared all the meals on her own, planning to go out.Cheng Mubei hurriedly pulled him back, "You have a temper, it seems that your Young Master Shen treats you very well."

Xiao Sang pursed her lips, and heard Cheng Mubei continue to say, "Master Shen, you will attend the Youth Conference. Tell me, and I will secretly take you to see it."

"Really?" Xiao Sang raised his head, the expectation in his eyes was naked, but he might feel embarrassed, so he lowered his head again.

"Really," Cheng Mubei smiled, "As long as you tell me where it is."
