Chapter 289 There are many secrets in the world

The mantis catches the cicada, and the oriole is behind.

Yu Hongdou, who relied on the two killer weapons of time travel and the system, never imagined that he would become the mantis.

This person hid so deeply that no trace was found before.

Yu Hongdou walked along with his head in his hands, wondering which link he had overlooked and why he hadn't discovered the big boss hidden behind the scenes.

"Don't think about it. There will always be a way when you reach the mountain. Whether it's a mule or a horse, it will eventually show up." Seeing that her face turned bitter due to anger, Tan Yanlin spoke out to comfort her.

If she is so upset and angry, then aren't they ignorant fools?

"There are so many secrets in this world. I can't let you know them all by yourself, right?" Yu Song didn't understand why his sister was worried.

If there is someone behind the scenes, there will be someone being caught. It will be over once they are caught.

Yu Hongdou gave them a sidelong glance. They didn't understand at all that this was a matter of dignity.

She was originally boasting about how smart she was, but she didn't know how people behind her were laughing at her.

He walked out of the mountain angrily in the moonlit night. Looking back, when the outline of Wudai Mountain came into view vaguely, Yu Hongdou's anger suddenly disappeared.

Yu Hongdou took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. The cool night air penetrated into her lungs, circulated through her body, and cleared her mind.

"Brother, take Brother Suozi with you to Sandai Mountain. You don't have to send us back." Yu Hongdou turned to discuss with Yu Song.

"Well, why don't you just light a fire and wait here. I guess the villagers will be here soon." Yu Song knew that his sister valued the bag of things from the mountains, so he didn't refuse.

"I'll go with Xiaosong." Tan Langxiu took the initiative to step forward.

Although Suozi is familiar with the surrounding terrain, his skills are relatively weak.

Knowing that there is an unknown person hiding behind him, letting Yu Song walk at night like this would be quite dangerous.

Yu Hongdou also thought of this, and solemnly requested and thanked Tan Langxu: "Thank you very much, Brother Jiu."

After watching Yu Song and Tan Langxiu leave, Yu Hongdou and the others continued to move forward a little. The moon was very bright tonight, but they reached a rugged place and it was not easy to force their way forward.

Suozi started a fire, took out the meat that he had not eaten that night from the leather bag on his back and roasted it again, then he asked another person to stand aside and keep watch.

"Brother Suozi, you guys come and warm yourself by the fire. It's still a bit cold at night." Yu Hongdou called Suozi and the others over.

She had calmed down and didn't want to talk about it anymore, so she started chatting with Suozi about family matters.

"The village has changed a lot in the past few years, but no one has suggested renovating the two springs." Yu Hongdou felt a little regretful when she thought of the shabby South Spring.

Even if you want to save some water for future generations, you should at least clean out the spring and cover it, right?

"Someone did mention it before, but the village chief and the head of the village discussed it and nothing happened." The big brother next to Suozi spoke up.

"I do know about this. It was Zhang Lizheng who opposed it. He said that this was the Descendants' Spring, and it had been fine since it had not been moved for the past hundred years. If it was really moved, it would ruin the inheritance." Suozi really knew about this.

"Oh, that's true. It's that manhole cover that still needs to be fixed. I almost fell down the day before yesterday." Yu Hongdou's counter-attack earned her a mocking look from Tan Yanlin.

Yu Hongdou glanced at him sideways, then turned around and continued to ask, "I didn't know before why our Beiquan Well was sealed so tightly. I also wanted to see how deep the well is."

Speaking of this, the eldest brother next to Suozi suddenly perked up: "Well, who knows? My father said that the Beiquan Dragon King Temple was small but extremely exquisite, and the Dragon King statue inside was gilded."

"After a long time, one night half of the building suddenly collapsed, and the statue of the Dragon King disappeared. It happened to be a dry day, so the villagers thought it was the Dragon God who was angry, so they hurried to buy materials to rebuild it."

"When I was buying materials, I met a man who said he had received financial support from the Beiquan Spring. Not only did he pay to rebuild the Beiquan Dragon King Temple, he also built a large temple on the spot."

The eldest brother said with a bit of regret: "I wonder which bastard got the golden statue of the Dragon King. He is not afraid of being struck by lightning."

Yu Hongdou felt that the gilding was debatable, maybe it was actually gold.

But according to Yu Zhi, the golden statue must have fallen into the well at that time. After years of erosion, it was only by coincidence that Yu Zhi saw it.

"Do you know who the person who repaired the spring is?" Yu Hongdou was curious. Was the kind-hearted person sincerely giving back, or did he have other intentions?

"The village chief should know." The eldest brother shook his head.

Yu Hongdou did not ask any more questions and tore off a piece of meat to feed Wangwang. This guy had been running around all day and had not had a good rest. Now he was still keeping his ears perked up and keeping alert. It was hard for him.

As expected, Tan Yanlin raised his head again and met Yu Hongdou's gaze: "Ning family?"

Yu Hongdou nodded and shook her head: "Fifth brother told my father to stop caring about it. The clues point to the capital."

"The Huang family, which later colluded with the foreigners, also said that they had established connections with the capital. After the conspiracy failed, all of Huang Jincheng's family members died tragically."

"I originally thought that the Ning family was motivated by profit when they took action against Yu Wangzhai, but now I think about it... my little money is nothing to the Ning family."

Yu Hongdou had never thought about this before, until Peng Qi mentioned that the Ning family had promised him a marriage.

She didn't even know that the imperial concubine's wet nurse, who lived next door to the Peng family, had such abilities.

He actually persuaded the Ning family to marry a concubine's daughter from a side branch to a man who had just passed the imperial examination. What's more, Concubine Ning's sister fell in love with cousin Pan Bao.

The "main family" means a closer cousin, and even if she is a concubine's daughter, it is not something that ordinary people can marry.

"Even if the girl from the Ning family really likes my cousin's character and appearance, she won't propose marriage now." Yu Hongdou said firmly.

"As far as I know, the girls of the Ning family are concubines, and none of them married into families below the sixth rank. However, some of them married third rank officials as concubines."

Tan Yanlin thought about it and realized that it was just as she said, the girls from the Ning family would not be white even if they got married.

Yu Hongdou, who would not worry about one thing for too long, was full of energy and ready to continue eating melon after a satisfying sleep.

Yu Yinxing disappeared, and Yu Dalang and Zhang, as parents, rose up for the first time and defeated the people from Old Ding's family so badly that they almost lost their coffins.

This could not relieve Zhang's hatred. Although she felt that her daughter's running away from home was not a wise move, when she thought about the fact that her daughter ran away without even caring about her injuries, she knew that she must have been forced into a desperate situation.

After beating up the Ding family, Zhang forced her husband and brothers-in-law to help find someone.

Neither Yu Sanlang nor Yu Song showed up. Xu only said that the father and son went to the county town to see Liu Jiaoniang off and they had not returned yet.

Yu Silang and Yu Erlang brought the villagers to help look for her, but in the end, others told Yu Yinxing that she had left with Ma Laizi on her own.
