Tie Yi and the rest did not think that Shen Miao would actually think of such a thing at this juncture. Even though the Phoenix Head Manor was not far from Long Ye, it would take two days to travel to and fro with the horses. If there were any unforeseen events along the way, the most important thing was that the legendary expert, other than hearing the Gao siblings' side of the story, no one had seen him before and did not know if it was true or false. Shen Miao going to look for an unknown person was too irrational and too naive.
But Shen Miao seemed to have steeled her heart and instructed Uncle Tang on what to do these few days before bringing Luo Tan out. Before leaving, she instructed that the matter of her and Luo Tan going out must not be spread out.
After disguising herself, she brought Star Anise, Mo Qing, Cong Yang and Luo Tan along the way.
Because she wore a bamboo hat and wore the clothes of an ordinary person, no one could recognise her. The residence of Prince Rui had always been good at doing these kinds of disguises. Even though Tie Yi was somewhat worried, when Shen Miao was strict, even Shen Qiu did not dare to easily stop her, much less these servants.
Looking at Shen Miao's departing figure, Uncle Tang asked, "This … Can Furen find the person?"
Tie Yi shook his head, "It is better to have a heart test than to not have one. At least one is a righteous person." He then turned his head to instruct others, "Hide the matter of Furen leaving the residence well. If the news were to leak out, bear the consequences!"
In the carriage, Luo Tan looked at Shen Miao and said, "Biao Youngest Sister, why don't you sleep for a while. These few days you did not have a good rest and did not stop for the journey. It is better for you to take a rest first."
Shen Miao's heart was somewhat in a mess. Now that the carriage was bumpy, even though she did not have the heart to rest, Luo Tan's words were very reasonable. If she did not rest well, it would not be good to delay the matters at hand. Thus she drowsily closed her eyes and dozed off.
One did not know why but this sleep was exceptionally long. Shen Miao originally set off in the afternoon and when she woke up, she was shaken awake. She opened her eyes in a daze and saw Luo Tan looking at her, "Biao Youngest Sister, wake up. We have arrived."
Shen Miao followed Luo Tan down the carriage and at this time it was already the afternoon of the second day. The carriage stopped in the middle of a wasteland. Perhaps no one had taken care of the branches growing there, but the branches were intertwined and almost covered the sky. In June, there would still be sunlight even in the evening. However, this place seemed gloomy and dark. There wasn't even a trace of heat. It was quite frightening to look at.
Mo Qing and Cong Yang also frowned. Cong Yang said, "What kind of damn place is this? There's not even a person. "
"I heard that there used to be an embroidery shop here. The embroidery shop specialized in embroidery of a phoenix tail. However, the embroidery shop gradually declined and the shop was abandoned," explained Octagonal Anise immediately. He was an inquisitive person.
Luo Tan looked up and down, left and right. She unfolded the handkerchief embroidered with the map and said, "But there should be a small path embroidered on this map. There are no roads here."
Everyone came over to take a look. Sure enough, the map was clear. In front of the Phoenix Head Manor was a small path. If they walked along the path, they would reach the fields and houses.
But there wasn't even a trace of a path here, let alone houses and fields.
"Why is there not even a single person? It is as if no one has been here for a long time." Luo Tan said, "Could it be that the grass has grown and covered the path so that we cannot see it?"
Mo Qing and Cong Yang looked around and shook their heads, "Not to the extent."
Octagonal Anise and Fennel Xiang also looked around. Fennel Xiang said, "This forest is too big. After the sun sets, it would be easy to get lost in the forest and there might be other wild beasts. We are also not familiar with the roads here. Furen, you see …"
