A courtyard was located at the end of the path.
It did not occupy a large area, but with the fragrance of flowers and birds, the environment was quiet. It was a good place to cultivate.
"Creak!"
Walking to the front of the courtyard, the City Lord pushed open the door and led Wutian and the others in.
The fragrance of flowers assailed their nostrils, and small trees were evergreen. There was a two-story attic in the innermost area. It was antique and exquisite.
The City Lord walked towards the attic and said, "Since Feng Tang left, no one has come in. Every blade of grass, tree, brick and tile here has not changed at all."
Wutian asked, "Are you sure no one has touched it?"
The City Lord said, "I can guarantee it with my head."
With that, the group stopped in front of the attic. The City Lord was about to push the door open.
But at this moment, Wutian grabbed his wrist.
The City Lord looked at him in confusion.
Wutian said indifferently, "You and the Landlord wait outside. Lu Peng, look around the garden and see if there's anything suspicious. Little guy, let's go in. "
"Okay."
Lu Peng immediately entered the garden to search.
The little guy stepped forward and kicked the door open. Immediately, a pungent smell of alcohol rushed towards them!
The living room was also in a mess. There were wine jars everywhere on the ground.
Wutian raised his eyebrows and turned to look at the City Lord. He asked, "Does Feng Tang like to drink?"
The City Lord said, "Often, but not addicted to alcohol."
Wutian asked, "Then why are there so many wine jars in the living room?"
The City Lord sighed. "It's because his family died inexplicably. He was too sad. In those few days, he locked himself in his room and drank all day."
Wutian nodded and walked into the living room. He glanced at the wine jars on the ground. Some of the wine jars were broken, without a single drop left. Some of the wine jars were not finished.
The entire living room gave the feeling that it was in a mess.
Wutian walked to the coffee table and touched it with his finger.
There was a little dust on the coffee table.
After thinking carefully for a while, Wutian whispered, "Judging from the dust on the coffee table, Feng Tang did leave more than half a month ago. Little guy, go upstairs and look. Don't miss any details."
"Alright."
The little fellow responded and dashed to the second floor.
Wutian also started searching on the first floor.
Seeing this, the House Master asked curiously, "City Lord, what are they looking for?"
The Tower Master shook his head and said, "I don't know either. But when these three people came, I had a bad feeling. I felt that something big might happen next."
Hearing this.
The building master's heart also became heavy.
On the first floor, other than the living room, there was only the kitchen and six cultivation rooms.
After Wutian looked around the living room and found nothing suspicious, he went into the kitchen.
Compared to the living room, the kitchen was much neater and cleaner.
After searching for a while and finding nothing suspicious, he turned around and entered the cultivation room.
The six cultivation rooms were not big, and they were full of elemental energy and spiritual essence. However, after he searched through them one by one, he still did not find anything.
"That's strange."
Wutian mumbled. His Divine Sense emerged and enveloped all the rooms on the first floor, conducting a carpet search.
But in the end, he found nothing.
Sighing helplessly, he retracted his Divine Sense and returned to the parlor. Unwilling to give up, he began to wander around the parlor.
Don't say it.
In the process of wandering, he really found something suspicious.
He found four wine cups among the dregs of the broken wine jar.
Under normal circumstances, people who were too sad would not use wine glasses and just drink directly from the wine jar.
Of course.
This was only the normal situation. There were exceptions.
But even if Feng Tang was an exception, and he wanted to drink with wine glasses, he was only one person. How could he use four wine glasses?
This made Wutian ponder.
After pondering for a moment, he picked up the four wine glasses and placed them on the tea table. He carefully examined them. The four wine glasses all had traces of cracking.
He then grabbed the four wine glasses and sniffed them. There was a faint smell of wine, and the concentration of the wine was almost the same.
This was enough to prove that the four wine glasses were used at the same time.
It was impossible for a person to use four wine glasses at the same time.
Unless this person had some quirks.
Thinking of this, he turned to the City Lord and said, "Come in for a moment."
The City Lord immediately ran over to his side.
Wutian asked, "When Feng Tang locked himself in the room, did anyone come here?"
The City Lord shook his head and said, "Definitely not. Because even I was rejected by him."
"Are you sure?"
Wutian frowned.
The City Lord nodded and said, "I am sure. Because I was very worried about him during those few days, I sent people to guard the courtyard entrance. If someone really entered the loft, my people would definitely inform me immediately."
Wutian raised his eyebrows and said, "Then does Feng Tang have the habit of using four wine glasses?"
"Uh!"
The City Lord was stunned and said with a bitter smile, "Sir, you must be joking. How could there be such a person in the world?"
Wutian's eyes flashed and he waved his hand and said, "I know. You can leave first."
"Yes."
The City Lord responded and looked suspiciously at Wutian, then turned and left.
Wutian looked at the four wine glasses and pondered.
Since it was impossible for Feng Tang to use four wine glasses, it could only mean that there should be someone with Feng Tang at that time.
As for the guards guarding the courtyard entrance, their strength was not very good. It was easy to hide from their eyes and ears.
But who was it?
There were a total of four wine glasses. Feng Tang used one, and there were three left. Three wine glasses represented three people.
At this moment.
Wutian's mind was working at high speed.
Gradually, he vaguely felt that he had found something crucial.
But at this moment, the little fellow came down from the second floor and interrupted his contemplation.
Shaking his head, Wutian asked, "Did you find anything suspicious?"
The little fellow shook her head and asked, "What about you?"
Wutian said, "I found four wine glasses."
The little fellow was slightly stunned. Looking at the wine glasses on the tea table, she frowned and said, "What kind of clue is this?"
Wutian explained briefly.
"You're thinking too much."
The little fellow shook his head and said, "Under many circumstances, such traces can be left behind. For example, four wine cups were placed together. After Feng Tang got drunk, he accidentally knocked them over and spilled some wine on them. Wouldn't it be possible to leave behind the smell of wine of the same concentration?"
Hearing the little fellow's words, Wutian couldn't help but be stunned.
It made sense!
Why didn't he think of it before?
It seemed that this time, the little fellow would definitely despise him.
Sure enough, just as this thought appeared in his mind, the little fellow chuckled and said, "Little Tian Zi, you're such a smart person, yet you're actually going to go through this kind of trouble. I really have to give it to you."
Wutian shook his head and smiled bitterly. No longer thinking about it, he turned and walked out of the living room. He glanced at the garden in front of the attic. At first, he didn't care and just glanced at it casually.
But he suddenly found that something seemed to be missing.
He looked carefully again and his face changed instantly!
"What's wrong?"
The little fellow was puzzled.
Wutian asked, "Where's Lu Peng?"
"Lu Peng?"
The little fellow was slightly stunned and looked up. Lu Peng was indeed not in the garden.
He turned to look at the City Lord and frowned. "Did you see Lu Peng?"
The City Lord looked at the garden in surprise and shook his head. "No, our attention was on you guys just now. We didn't pay attention to that young master."
The House Master said, "I didn't pay attention either. I guess he should have left alone!"
The little fellow said in a deep voice, "He can't leave without even saying goodbye."
Wutian nodded. He couldn't help but have an uneasy premonition. "Let's go to the garden and look."
The four of them entered the garden and searched carefully.
The garden wasn't big. Other than the colorful flowers and green evergreen trees, there was only a pavilion and a rockery.
However.
After Wutian and the other three finished searching, they didn't find anything suspicious at all.
The four of them met in the pavilion, all of their faces gloomy.
The House Master looked around and couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine. "A living person actually disappeared into thin air right under our noses. This is too crafty."
The City Lord said in a deep voice, "What's even more crafty is that there are no traces of that young master in the garden. It's as if someone has erased them. But before that, we didn't sense the aura of a stranger?"
Wutian looked at the little fellow and said, "This place is very unusual. Quickly use your divine power to seal this place."
The little fellow nodded. Golden divine power gushed out.
In an instant, a huge enchantment was formed, sealing off the entire courtyard. Even the divine power had sunk tens of thousands of feet into the ground!
Following that.
He looked at Wutian. "What do we do next?"
"If there are really others hiding here, I guarantee that they won't be able to escape!"
Wutian smiled coldly. He closed his eyes and let go of his body and mind. He blended into nature and carefully sensed everything around him.
Seeing this, the City Lord and the other two also closed their eyes to sense, but they didn't sense anything.
Even Lu Peng's aura was gone, as if he had never been here.
The two of them opened their eyes and couldn't help but look at Wutian suspiciously.
They really couldn't figure out where this person borrowed the confidence to say such arrogant words.
Time passed by breath by breath.
After about ten breaths, Wutian finally caught two weak auras somewhere in the garden.
One of the auras was left by Lu Peng.
The other aura was very unfamiliar!
But both auras were deliberately erased by someone.
Therefore, it wasn't just weak. It was very, very weak!
Unless one comprehended the profound meaning of life and death, they wouldn't be able to catch it.
Even Wutian, who had comprehended the profound meaning of life and death, found it very difficult to lock onto the two auras.
Suddenly.
Wutian walked out of the pavilion and followed the two auras to a corner of the garden.
Seeing this, the little fellow's eyes lit up. He knew that Wutian must have found something. He hurried to catch up and was on guard carefully.
The City Lord and the other two looked at each other. With a head full of doubts, they quickly caught up with the two and followed behind the little fellow. They were also secretly vigilant.
If Lu Peng left the courtyard by himself, he definitely wouldn't have deliberately erased his aura.
So!
There was only one explanation left. He didn't leave willingly. He was kidnapped!
But before this, they didn't sense anyone else entering the courtyard. All of this was really strange. It was impossible not to be nervous!
