This gorgeously dressed servant took Ye Long and Chu Yunyi away for a long time. They had been walking for almost two hours. Chu Yunyi was already feeling very tired, and Ye Long was a little unable to keep up.
People.
But this servant was walking as fast as flying, and could carry his own box so easily, which surprised Ye Long. He estimated that this Tantai family was not an ordinary family, at least it could be compared with the Ye family of Frostleaf City.
Just when Chu Yunyi couldn't hold on anymore, the servant leading the way suddenly stopped in front of a majestic gate, turned around and said to Ye Long and Chu Yunyi:
"You two, since this is our Tantai family, please come in."
Although Ye Long had never met this person, he knew that this family was either rich or noble just by looking at this tall and majestic door.
"Ah, sir, are you here?"
As soon as the slave walked into the door, he saw Tan Taijing pacing in front of a room, with a very bored and anxious look on his face. He only came back to his senses when he saw his slave calling him.
"Oh, it's Ah Fu. Why did it take you so long to send the invitation? Who are these two?"
Looking at Ye Long and Chu Yunyi behind Ah Fu, Tantai Jing wanted to ask.
"Hello, Mr. Tantai, I am a tourist. I came here to travel, but I didn't know that there is no hotel in this town, so I want to come to your place to stay for one night. We will pay according to the price. I wonder if you can arrange it."
"It's strange that there are still people traveling to this place. Anyway, you two can stay here. There's no need to talk about the rent. Ah Fu, you can find two vacant rooms and take the two of you to settle down.
"
"Yes, sir."
Ye Long didn't expect that this Tan Tai Jing would be so kind-hearted and let him stay without asking who he was. In fact, this Tan Tai Jing was worried about the relationship between two powerful old men a few days ago.
Things are troublesome.
"Thank you very much, Master Tantai. I'm afraid we will have to bother you here for a few more days."
Ye Long actually didn't want to say this, but Captain Cui had no choice but to let him investigate here. It certainly couldn't be completed in a few days, so naturally he had to stay here for a few more days.
The head of the Tantai family, Tantai Jing, didn’t ask any more questions and just said:
"It doesn't matter, just stay here and if you need anything, you can come to this Ah Fu."
"Yes, sir."
Ye Long and Chu Yunyi thanked the Dantai Mirror again and again, and then followed Ah Fu to a room. Although they did not live in the room, the room was indeed antique and very clean and tidy, which made Chu Yunyi very happy.
"If you two need anything, just call me at any time. You're welcome."
Ah Fu's voice was very rough. Ye Long smiled and pulled Ah Fu aside and asked:
"Afu, thank you, but I have a question to ask you."
"What's the question? Just tell me. I'll answer you if I know."
"Why are there ancient buildings everywhere in this place, as well as your master? Don't you know that we are no longer a feudal society, and everyone is equal."
Ah Fu was a little angry when he heard this, but he also knew that Ye Long was an outsider, and he was so disrespectful because he was weird, so he returned:
"This place actually still follows some of the traditions of the Republic of China. Even after entering modern society, people here are really used to it because of the lack of traffic."
Ah Fu saw that Ye Long didn't believe it, so he continued:
"I came from outside and was abducted and trafficked here by a human trafficker. I was only eight years old at the time. If Master Tan Taijing hadn't taken me in, I would have starved to death by now."
Hearing this, Ye Long naturally couldn't ask any more questions. He solemnly apologized to Ah Fu and then left.
Chu Yunyi on the side suddenly jumped out and asked:
"What did you say to this Ah Fu just now? Why did you go behind my back?"
Seeing that Chu Yunyi was a little angry, Ye Long could only smile and said:
"Why did I say it behind your back? It's just that this is a topic between men, so don't listen to it. You won't understand even if you do."
"Huh, don't tell me if you don't tell me. Then you should tell me why Captain Cui asked us to come to this place to investigate, right?"
Ye Long didn't want Chu Yunyi to intervene, because before leaving, Captain Cui said that this time must be very dangerous. If Chu Yunyi had not insisted on following him, he would never make fun of Chu Yunyi's life.
"Xiaoyi, please don't do this with me. You can just wait here with peace of mind while I investigate the matter. Then we can go back to Xidan City, okay?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Yunyi immediately raised her lips and said in a crying voice:
"You want to leave me again. You do this every time. Do you know how much I worry about you every time? My cultivation level is already very strong and I don't need your protection. I just want you to be safe.
"
As he talked, Chu Yunyi felt more and more uncomfortable, and finally started crying. Ye Long, who usually loved Chu Yunyi, now immediately held Chu Yunyi in his arms and said:
"Xiaoyi, please stop crying. I know you are doing it for my own good."
"Then let me investigate with you this time!"
"Okay, but you have to listen to my arrangements. If there is danger, you must leave first."
"I know, I won't drag you down. Don't just rush up if there is danger, otherwise you will be seriously injured every time. I don't want to live with a disabled person."
"Okay, okay, I promise you, now I will tell you the purpose of Captain Cui asking us to come to Fentian City, okay?"
Ye Long had no choice but to agree to Chu Yunyi. After all, he really couldn't be so heartless and brought Chu Yunyi to this place without saying why.
"Captain Cui wants us to investigate this Burntian City. He has received information that someone in this Burntian City is taking advantage of the contradiction between the three major forces in the southwest and wants to combine modern technology to create a super weapon, so he wants me to find this person.
"
"Super weapon? Is it an atomic bomb?"
"No, this super weapon is like the moon and candlelight compared to the atomic bomb. It is said that the three major forces in the southwest have always been at odds. If someone can use this contradiction to stir up a melee between the three major forces, that person can take advantage of it.
It’s a fisherman’s profit.”
Chu Yunyi was confused and asked:
"Is there any connection between the melee between the three major forces and the production of super weapons?"
"Captain Cui didn't go into details, so we need to find the answer."
Ye Long finally revealed his purpose, and Chu Yunyi gave up and went to the jewelry room alone. Seeing that Chu Yunyi was still angry, Ye Long said he wanted to go out for a walk, and left.
room, came to the streets of Fentian City, and started wandering around.
