Even though several decades have passed, Shi Ye's handwriting on the note is still clearly visible.

Wen Chi stared at the note for a while, then folded the note and put it close to his body, and then put the wooden box back into the cabinet.

He opened the door and went out, and saw Zuo Zhi waiting outside.

Wen Chi asked: "Zuo Zhi, do you know how to get to Chenjiazhuang?"

Zuo Zhi thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Your maidservant knows something."

After half an hour.

Wen Chi and Zuo Zhi came to Chenjiazhuang in a carriage.

Chenjiazhuang is located in a more prosperous area of ​​Jinzhou, and the owner of Chenjiazhuang is Chen Wu mentioned in Shi Ye's letter.

The servant brought Wen Chi to the main hall, and after waiting for a while, he heard hurried footsteps coming from outside the hall.

Wen Chi turned his head to look, and saw a tall and thin middle-aged man with a small mustache striding over. The middle-aged man walked straight up to Wen Chi, clasped his fists and made a bow: "Xia Chen Wu, this is Master Wen?"

Wen Chi quickly stood up from the chair, and said politely, "Exactly."

After finishing speaking, he took out the note written by Shi Ye from the skirt of his shirt and handed it to Chen Wu.

Chen Wu took the note, glanced at it quickly, and then squeezed the note into a ball. When he spread his hand again, the so-called letter had become a pile of shredded paper.

After confirming Wen Chi's identity, Chen Wu didn't talk nonsense, and said straight to the point: "His Royal Highness has left something for Mr. Wen, Mr. Wen will follow you."

Wen Chi nodded, followed Chen Wu through a deep narrow path, and finally came to a rather secluded house.

Zuo Zhi didn't intend to enter the house, so he tactfully stood guard outside the house.

After Wen Chi entered the house, he realized that it looked like a study room, with simple decoration and dense books on the shelves.

Chen Wu kept walking towards the inner room, and when he came out, he was holding a stack of thick things in his hand. He put the stack of things on the desk in front of Wen Chi, and made a gesture to Wen Chi. please gesture.

Wen Chi hesitantly picked up the top few sheets of paper, and when they were spread out, they were as big as four storybooks.

Wen Chi took a closer look, and saw that the paper was covered with ancient characters. Although Wen Chi's literacy was limited, he could still recognize his name and some key words written on the upper left.

And there is a very clear official seal on the lower right.

"This is..." Wen Chi turned the paper over in surprise, then raised his eyes to Chen Wu, "The title deed?"

Chen Wudao: "If I'm not mistaken, this should be the title deed of Wanghai Villa in the outskirts of the capital."

Wen Chi suppressed the surprise in his heart, folded the top paper, and spread out the bottom paper.

Chen Wu glanced at the paper calmly, and said respectfully: "This should be the land deed of Lingxiu Villa on the outskirts of the capital."

"..."

In an instant, Wen Chi's hand holding the title deeds trembled a little. He couldn't think of the reason why Shi Ye gave him these title deeds.

He looked over all the land deeds and counted them, and there were actually eight land deeds—five villa land deeds and three house land deeds, all of which were located in the capital.

After reading these title deeds, Wen Chi discovered that there was a booklet that was neither too thin nor too thick at the bottom.

He froze for a moment, put away the title deed in his hand, picked up the booklet and flipped through it.

The more Wen Chi turned down, the uglier his face became.

Halfway through, he snapped the booklet shut.

Chen Wu was standing on the other side of the desk, silently watching Wen Chi's every move like a transparent person.

Wen Chi forced a smile, and said politely: "You worked so hard to keep these things for me before, can I take them away now?"

Chen Wu hurriedly said: "These are the things His Royal Highness left for Mr. Wen. It is naturally up to Mr. Wen to decide whether to keep them or not. If Mr. Wen is inconvenient to carry them with you, I can keep them temporarily for Mr. Wen."

Wen Chi thought for a while, with Zuo Zhi and Liu De two martial arts experts guarding him, there should be no inconvenience in bringing these land deeds and this booklet.

So Wen Chi still took away the title deed and booklet.

Chen Wu deliberately took an inconspicuous gray cloth and wrapped the land deed and booklet.

Walking out of the house, Zuo Zhi was standing under the steps, with her back to Wen Chi, looking up at the sky.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, she looked back, and behind her was a curtain of snow that floated up at an unknown time.

Tiny snowflakes fell on the stone-paved road, turning them into pure white. Even the grass and branches not far away were covered with patches of white. At first glance, it seemed that the whole world was covered by a thin silver cloth. pack.

Zuo Zhi shouted: "Young Master Wen."

Wen Chi walked down the steps a few steps, looked up at the sky like Zuo Zhi had just said: "It's snowing."

Zuo Zhi smiled and said, "Winter is here."

At this time, Chen Wu also came out of the house. He walked to the front of Wenchi in three steps at a time. It’s raining without snow, and today’s snowflakes are really the first in 20 years.”

After finishing speaking, he turned his head and told Wen Chi, "Mr. Wen, it's snowing and the weather is cold. You and Miss Zuo Zhi should go back earlier, so as not to catch cold."

It's snowing and the road is slippery and not easy to walk on.

So it took some time for the three of them to return to the main hall.

After bidding farewell to Chen Wu, Wen Chi handed the gray cloth containing the title deed and booklet to Zuo Zhi, and then left Chenjiazhuang with Zuo Zhi.

That night, Wen Chi tossed and turned, unable to sleep.

Around midnight, he found the booklet hidden under the bed, leaning against the bedside to read it by the weak candlelight in the bedroom.

There are a lot of things written in this booklet, it doesn't look like Shi Ye's handwriting, maybe Shi Ye asked someone else to write it, of course this is not the point, the point is——

It actually wrote about Zhou Fang's younger brother and younger siblings colluding with kidnappers.

really……

Master Yin's actions were really inspired by Shi Ye.

Wen Chi was stunned for a moment, and then continued to look through. Not long after, he found a list written on the back of the booklet. In this list, there were not only those who came to Jinzhou with Wen Chi, but also those who stayed in the capital. people.

And some people's names are very familiar.

Wen Chi touched the positions of those familiar names with his fingertips, and tapped lightly.

He remembered!

Aren't these people supporting roles that appeared several times in the original novel?

Although the roles of these supporting characters in the original novel are so small that they have almost no roles, they play a decisive role every time they appear on the stage. They not only rescue the protagonist Gong Shou from the predicament, but also help the protagonist Gong Shou to seriously injured the villain - that villain is Shi Ye.

Unexpectedly, when Shi Ye was in the center of the vortex, he had already found out the people who were unfavorable to him, and even investigated the details of these people and their deeds in recent years.

At this moment, Wen Chi could no longer suppress the shock in his heart, and an idea slowly grew in his mind.

He wondered if Shi Ye was ready to part with him, so that he paved the way for him so properly, and even wrote clearly in the booklet who he should guard against in the future.

No wonder he didn't mention Shi Ye to Zuo Zhi and Liu De, Zuo Zhi and Liu De didn't say anything either, they were clearly people around Shi Ye, but they seemed to have forgotten who Shi Ye was.

This idea ran rampant in Wen Chi's mind.

Wen Chi took a breath, hurriedly closed the booklet and hid it under the bed again.

He was flustered, and the emotions piled up in his chest seemed to be pulled by a pair of invisible hands, making him breathless, and he was even staggering when he walked out.

Wen Chi ignored his shoes, walked out of the bedroom barefoot, walked to the door, and opened the door with his hand.

He wanted to talk to Zuo Zhi, and according to Zuo Zhi's hesitant performance in the past, maybe she would like to reveal something to him.

Wen Chi was about to go out, but he suddenly noticed something, and he stopped abruptly.

The scene outside was shrouded in pitch black night.

Only the candlelight in the room poured down along the open door, and the faint warm yellow light did not shine very far, but it illuminated the snowflakes floating in the air. There was already a layer of snow on the ground.

It has been snowing all day, and there is still no sign of letting up.

Wen Chi acted in a hurry, not only did he not wear shoes, but he was only wearing white underwear and underpants, the cold wind blowing with snow made him shiver.

But he didn't rush to close the door and walk back. Instead, he stood at the door for a while, and then walked out.

He came out of the window on the right, and saw that the originally closed window opened a crack at some point, and through that crack, he could clearly see the scene inside.

The snow that had fallen all day fell on the window sill, covering the window sill with a thin layer of white snowflakes.

Wen Chi bent down, and took a closer look at the window sill in front of him by the faint candlelight shining through the window crack.

After a while, he found two fingerprints on the snow-covered window sill. Although the two fingerprints were not obvious, they were indeed fingerprints left by two people, and they had not been covered by the freshly fallen snow. It seemed that That person should have just left.

Who can avoid Zuo Zhi and Liu De to come out of his window?

Wen Chi had a vague guess in his heart, but he couldn't believe it.

Standing in the cold wind, he looked down at the two inconspicuous fingerprints that were gradually covered by freshly fallen snowflakes. He pursed his lips and was about to turn around to leave when he saw a dark spot on the ground with sharp eyes.

He froze for a moment and squatted down.

The light under the window sill was particularly dim, and he could only vaguely see the dark color on the snow, even if he looked closely, he couldn't make out what it was.

However, Wen Chi seemed to have sensed something, and stretched out his hand to touch the dark color.

The viscous feeling spread instantly between the index finger and the middle finger. In this cold winter night, Wen Chi felt the liquid on the fingertips still had a hint of heat.

He withdrew his hand, put his fingertips in front of his nose, and sniffed lightly.

It smells like blood.

is blood.

By coincidence, Wen Chi stretched out his tongue and licked his fingertips. In an instant, a sweet and greasy fragrance flooded into his mouth along with a faint fishy smell.

How many times has Wen Chi drank that person's blood, how could he not be familiar with the smell?
