In this place where entertainment is lacking, gossip is clearly the least lacking.

Along the way, what Zhong Hou heard the most was talking about the dead people of the Situ family.

For ordinary people, the Situ family is a high-ranking existence, and now so many people have died at once, even the city lord is dead, it is difficult not to make a sensation in the whole city.

According to the news he heard along the way, Zhong Hou knew that the Situ family was the overlord of Anyang City, and the city lord of Anyang was also the current head of the Situ family.

This kind of existence is like an ant in front of the immortals, and they can be trampled to death at will, so you can imagine how powerful the immortals are.

As the overlord of Anyang City, the Situ family is located in the most prosperous place in the entire city, and Zhong Hou easily found the location of the Situ family.

The Situ family is heavily guarded, even if Uncle Zhou and the head of the Situ family know each other, it is not easy for Zhong Hou to get in, not to mention that Uncle Zhou only knows a subordinate of the Situ family, not to mention in this extraordinary period.

Fortunately, I was prepared.

When he came to the door of Situ's house, he saw eighteen guards standing at the door, each holding weapons, with bright armor, a straight waist, and no squinting, full of momentum, which made Zhong Hou feel solemn for a while.

When he came to the door, he was still a few steps away from the guards, and bowed to everyone.

Before Zhong Hou could speak, one of the guards scolded: "Where did you come from, beggar, is it looking for death, this is the Situ family, beg me to get away." ”

Zhong Hou looked at the other party's mighty appearance, and then looked at his own clothes, there was indeed no difference between beggars, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.

In a slightly nervous mood, he took out the letter from his arms, handed it over with both hands, and then said: "I am a distant relative of Situ Fu, the manager of the accounting office, and I was entrusted by my family to send the letter, and I bothered the eldest brother to report it. ”

As long as they have served in the Situ family for a certain number of years, or have made special contributions to the Situ family, they will be given the surname Situ. Situ Fu is not surnamed Situ in the first place, and Zhong Hou said that it is a distant relative, which will not arouse suspicion.

When the guards heard Zhong Hou say this, the nearest guard frowned and said, "Bring the letter, stand farther away and wait." ”

Zhong Hou took out the letter from his arms and handed it over with both hands.

The guard stretched out his thumb and forefinger to pinch one of the corners of the letter, and the remaining three fingers rushed outward, motioning for Zhong Hou to step back a little more, as if he would be unlucky if he got closer to Zhong Hou, and then quickly turned and left.

Knowing that his image was not very good at the moment, seeing that the other party did not like it, Zhong Hou simply stood in the distance and waited.

After waiting for more than an hour, the guard Shi Shiran came out and said to Zhong Hou: "Follow me." ”

After that, the guard did not bring Zhong Hou into the Situ family's manor, but walked out.

Zhong Hou asked strangely, "This big brother, didn't you take me in to find Fu Bo?"

When the guard heard this, he sneered twice before he sneered: "What is your identity, do you want to enter and exit from the main gate of the Situ family? ”

Facing the other party's ridicule, Zhong Hou could only smile awkwardly.

After seven turns and eight turns, the guards finally took Zhong Hou and walked into the Situ family's manor through a side door of the Situ family.

The Situ family's mansion covers an area of 10,000 acres, the inner courtyard is the place where the descendants and collateral families live, and the outer courtyard is the place where the guards and subordinates live. Guards and subordinates are generally not allowed to enter the inner courtyard unless required for work.

The outer courtyard gave Zhong Hou the feeling of only one word 'big', as for other antique buildings, what pavilions, what small bridges and flowing water, what birds and flowers, etc., Zhong Hou asked himself that he couldn't reach that realm, and he didn't know how to appreciate it at all.

The outer courtyard is already like this, and it is hard to imagine how luxurious the inner courtyard is.

Along the way, I met many maids and maids, their eyes were like looking at monsters, without exception, they stopped what they were doing, and looked at this ragged young man, and from time to time there was the sound of them pointing and pointing.

In this regard, Zhong Hou could only follow quietly behind the guards with his head down and a red face.

Zhong Hou was treated as a monkey for the first time, even though he had heard a lot of strange stories from Zhou Bo's mouth, his psychological tolerance still needed to be improved.

After a while, the two of them had already arrived at their destination, only to hear the guard say: "Fu Bo is working in the inner courtyard, you are waiting here in the outer courtyard, and Fu Bo will come here to find you later, don't walk around, otherwise you will bear the consequences." After finishing speaking, he ignored Zhong Hou, trotted into the distance, and stood straight.

Seeing the other party staring straight at him, Zhong Hou felt uncomfortable, so he could only turn his gaze elsewhere and not look at the other party.

Yes, in this extraordinary period, a stranger enters Situ's house, even if this is the outer courtyard, he has to be cautious. If Zhong Hou is allowed to be here and no one is sent to monitor him, it will be strange.

Zhong Hou waited quietly in a corner of the outer courtyard.

After a while, a woman in her thirties slowly walked over from a distance.

This woman has a bewitching posture and twists when she walks, for fear that others will not know that her ass is the same. The thick foundation on the face completely hides the beauty and ugliness of the face inside, and you can't see where you want to go.

Zhong Hou turned his back to the other party and didn't notice it, and the other party didn't pay attention at first.

When the distance between the two sides became closer and closer, the bewitching woman suddenly sniffed, as if she smelled a smell of stinky salted fish, and then as if she had discovered a new continent, her eyes glared at Zhong Hou.

When he found out that he was a complete stranger, he exclaimed loudly: "Where did you come from, the stinky boy dared to sneak into our Situ family, you are impatient." Come on, come on, catch the thief... Catch a thief... ”

As soon as he shouted like this, Zhong Hou also found the other party, frowned, and said, "I'm not a thief." I'm here to find someone, don't scream... ”

The bewitching woman didn't pay attention to what Zhong Hou said, and was still yelling.

Soon, the guards and maids gathered in the place where the sound came from, and in a short time there were already forty or fifty people gathered.

The guard who led the way for Zhong Hou wanted to stand up and explain, but when he found out who the person who was mad was, he stopped talking, because this woman was notoriously spicy, not because she couldn't afford to provoke her, but because she would make a fuss about herself.

Anyway, nothing can happen, as long as Situ Fu comes out, everything is clear, so the guard simply can't see it.

Of course, the family and the maids watched the excitement from a distance, and the other guards who did not know the truth were responsible for it, and immediately surrounded Zhong Houtuan. At this moment, the bewitching woman had long since retreated, but the loud voice still made the eardrums of the audience vibrate.
