When we arrived in Hangzhou, it was already winter.

As soon as Cong Ye got out of the car, a gust of cold air surrounded him.

He rubbed his hands and looked at the antique mansion in front of him.

"Yo! This house is really nice!"

The blind man got out of the car and stood next to Cong Ye, breathing out white mist.

Cong Ye stepped forward and knocked on the door.

"Who?"

Cong Ye came to Hangzhou without telling Master Wu and Master Jiu in advance.

When Wu Wuye's nanny opened the door, she was surprised to see Cong: "Mr. Cong? You are here! I will notify Mr. Wu!"

The nanny quickly opened the door, welcomed Cong Ye and Heixiazi in, served tea to them in the hall, and immediately went to the study to find Wu Wu.

Cong also sat down on the wooden chair. After a while, footsteps came.

The figures of Fifth Master and Nineth Master appeared at the door at the same time.

"Cong Ye, why are you here?"

With a surprised smile on his face, Master Wu sat down next to Cong Ye.

Cong Ye's eyes flashed across the bodies of Fifth Master and Ninth Master, with unclear meaning: "There is something I want to ask Ninth Master."

Master Jiu looked at him with a smile and shook his head: "It must be because of Huo Ling's incident."

The fifth master and the ninth master are both extremely shrewd people.

When Cong Ye asked what he said, Master Jiu guessed his purpose.

The fifth master smiled and said nothing. Of course he knew the purpose of Cong Ye's coming.

But at any rate, I still have to put on a show.

"Master Jiu, are Huo Ling and Chen Wenjin among the corpses of the archaeological team?"

Cong also gets straight to the point.

Master Jiu was not surprised that he would ask this question. He shook his head: "No."

Cong Ye felt relieved.

There are no bodies of Huo Ling and Chen Wenjin, which proves that Huo Ling and Chen Wenjin may have a chance of survival.

Huo Ling and Chen Wenjin are the next generation of Jiumen. Master Jiu knows that Cong Ye is worried about them. In order to prevent Cong Ye from having too much hope and being disappointed in the future, he reminded:

"Although there are no bodies of them, we haven't seen their people either."

Cong Ye frowned: "Master Jiu means that the real Huo Ling and Chen Wenjin are missing?"

Master Jiu nodded.

He originally wanted to rescue Huo Ling and Chen Wenjin, but found that these two people were not at all in the team.

Cong also took a deep breath: "No matter what, it's always a good thing not to see the body."

"Xiangu noticed something was wrong?"

Master Jiu guessed it quickly.

Cong Ye nodded: "Xiangu sent a letter from Beijing, saying that she felt that Huo Ling was acting strangely, as if she was a different person, and she asked me to help investigate."

Fifth Master took a sip of tea, lowered his eyes, and was filled with helplessness:

"Cong Ye, you can't tell me and Master Jiu's plans in full!"

It wasn't that they were on guard against Huo Xiangu, but they had to act cautiously.

Huo Xiangu's husband's status is sensitive, and their family has constant connections with them.

Once what the fifth master and the ninth master have done is exposed, the higher-ups will definitely kill the two families again.

Cong Ye nodded: "I know, Fifth Master and Ninth Master can rest assured."

The reason why the fifth master and the ninth master did not tell anyone about their plan was that they hoped that fewer people would know about it to prevent the plan from being exposed.

He also guessed the plans of Fifth and Ninth Masters on his own.

The risk with Huo Xiangu was high, and he would not take the risk to tell Huo Xiangu the truth.

No one can guarantee what Huo Xiangu would do if she knew her daughter was missing in Banai, Guangxi.

You cannot ask a mother to remain calm and consider the overall situation when her daughter is missing.

Cong also decided to hide the matter.

Secretly search for traces of Huo Ling and Chen Wenjin.

Live to see people, die to see corpses.

"The Fifth Master's house is empty. Where are Yi Qiong, Er Bai and San Sheng?"

Cong also asked about his godsons.

The fifth master looked at the lid of the tea cup and snorted: "The boss couldn't wait any longer and went on an inspection. The second boss went to do business. The third boss just left yesterday. He went crazy somewhere!"

Cong Ye comforted him with a smile: "When the child grows up, how can he stay at home forever."

Master Jiu nodded silently: "They have their own things to do."

He has many sons in his family, and his attitude towards them is also very indulgent.

As long as it doesn't go too far, they can do whatever they like.

"It's almost Chinese New Year again!"

The fifth master suddenly said with emotion: "Cong Ye will stay here this year and the three of us will celebrate the New Year!"

Master Jiu helped: "Yes! I don't know if there will be another opportunity like this in the future!"

He looked at the Fifth Master, who had the same white hair as himself, and felt sad in his heart.

Cong Ye nodded: "Celebrate New Year's Eve here, but I still have to go back to Changsha on New Year's Eve."

Fifth Master snorted lightly, not sure whether he was satisfied or dissatisfied:

"You know how to follow the second master every day. At such an old age, you are not a baby looking for milk!"

"Besides, the second master is a grown man, and he doesn't have any milk for you!"

As Master Wu gets older, his mind becomes smaller and smaller.

When it comes to talking, he has a good mouth.

The grandson's brain was confused.

Cong Ye's face turned red inexplicably by Master Wu's rude words: "Master Wu! You are vulgar!"

Master Jiu and Master Wu laughed.

"How is this vulgar?"

The fifth master couldn't stop laughing and held his knees: "There are even more vulgar ones!"

Cong Ye: "..."

He shook his head and sighed: "Old gangster."

Fifth Master's eyes widened and he looked at Jiu Master: "Did you hear what Cong Ye scolded me for?"

Master Jiu smiled and nodded: "I heard it."

Fifth Master hummed to express his dissatisfaction.

"grandfather!"

At this moment, a small head came out of the door frame of the living room.

The child had red lips and white teeth, and a pair of big, smart eyes blinking. His curious eyes fell on Cong Ye in the hall.

"come over!"

The fifth master saw his little grandson and waved to him.

The child showed a bright smile and ran towards the fifth master.

The fifth master held him in his arms, and when he saw his eyes lingering on Cong Ye, he introduced to him:

"This is your grandpa's younger brother. You will call him grandpa."

Cong almost spit out a mouthful of tea.

He looked to be in his early twenties, and he always found it strange to be called grandpa.

Wu Xie put his head in the fifth master's arms sheepishly, a little shyly: "But my godfather is not old at all, but my grandpa and ninth grandpa are very old..."

Ninth Master and Fifth Master: "..."

If the children were not ignorant, they would even suspect that Wu Xie did it on purpose.

Cong was also amused by this sentence. He came closer and grabbed Wu Xie's little hand to play with it.

Wu Xie was very shy and kept digging into Wu Ye's arms, but he couldn't bear to look at Cong Ye, so he secretly looked at Cong Ye while digging in, and let Cong Ye squeeze and flatten him without struggling with his hands.

"Because your godfather is a god, and my grandfather and your ninth grandfather are both mortals. Do you understand?"

Wu Xie is only four years old this year. At such a young age, he cannot understand anything that is said to him. He must understand the word "god".

Usually, Fifth Master also likes to tell him some historical stories and fairy tales.

"Wow!"

Wu Xie's eyes immediately lit up.

Like two small light bulbs being pulled over.
