Chapter 50: House Arrest

The second uncle nodded and followed the man out. Only me and Wenmo were left in the room.

Wenmo glanced at me, turned around and was about to go out, I quickly stopped him, "Wenmo, you wait a minute." ”

Wenmo looked at me, but didn't speak.

I stared at him and asked, "Are you and my second uncle hiding something from me?" ”

Wen Mo opened his mouth and said: "There is nothing between you and me, there is nothing to hide, you had better ask your second uncle about this kind of thing." ”

I also expected that I couldn't easily ask what the result was, after all, this guy was a mystery in itself.

"Well," I didn't want to let him go, "do you know why we're here?" ”

Wen Mo shook his head, "I only know that this is the Tan family's territory. ”

I smiled, "You're too perfunctory, and I know that you still need to say it." ”

"No, it's not just that," Wen Mo continued, "As far as I know, this should be the original gathering place of the Tan family, that is, the real ancestral home of the Tan family. ”

"Oh?" Hearing Wen Mo say this, it surprised me a little, "Why did the Tan family's ancestral house fall into a dilapidated state?" It seems that the Tan family is really in decline. ”

Wen Mo turned around and leaned against the wall, "Actually, the Tan family has become like this, or because of their own problems within the family. There was a split in the upper echelons of the Tan family. ”

"A split at the top?" It reminded me of the woman in sunglasses and the bald head, "So it's because the Tan family is divided?" Are they the people we see today? ”

"Yes," Wen Mo nodded and said, "You already know that woman, and that bald head is the son of Tan San's head back then." ”

I said, "So, the Tan family is now divided into two factions, so what about the other leaders back then?" For example, the second master or something? ”

Wen Mo said: "Some of the other leaders have died, and some have retired, in short, there are only these two forces left. ”

It turns out that this is the case, no wonder the eldest sister of the Tan family will help us to deal with the bald head, the enemy of the enemy is a friend. Besides, I can also see that there seems to be an old acquaintance between the second uncle and the eldest sister of the Tan family.

I continued to ask Wenmo, "Then what is the purpose of our coming here?" ”

Wen Mo shook his head, "I don't know exactly what they think, but I think it must have something to do with the Balun Ancient Road." It must have helped them with what they wanted. ”

I thought for a moment, looked at Wen Mo and smiled, "Boss, the Balun Ancient Road is also your goal, right?" ”

Wen Mo was silent for a moment, and said lightly, "I'm not sure either. Maybe you'll find out until you've found out there. ”

I know we all owe Wenmo, especially me, who doesn't know how many times he's saved me. But sometimes it's really hot to talk to him. Generally, when chatting with others, if I find that the other party is perfunctory, I will feel that the other party is brushing my heart, but Wenmo is different, his perfunctory makes you feel that he is treating you as a stupid X!

I sneered, "Don't you know it yourself?" Then tell me, what is the purpose of your coming to Chengdu? ”

Wen Mo looked at me, "It's very simple, I'm looking for Mr. Hong!" ”

Wenmo's words made my heart jump suddenly, yes, I almost forgot about that guy, and there is a Mr. Hong, maybe he is hiding in the dark, ready to wait for the opportunity. "You tracked that Mr. Hong to get here? Could it be that guy is also in Chengdu? ”

Wen Mo nodded. And I was silent for a moment.

Wen Mo opened the door and walked out, I thought about it for a while, and simply stayed in the second uncle's room.

As I lay in bed, I thought back to the experience of the past few days, and I couldn't help but feel that my life was really hard enough. I finally got rid of these things, I thought that this time I was acting quietly alone, but I didn't expect to calculate it, and I still counted myself into the whirlpool of various forces. I knew that there were so many things here, so complicated, and I was almost kidnapped and torn up my ticket, and I didn't come to kill me! I'd rather go to the Lantern Festival, even if I go to Kong Xue's party, embarrassment is better than death!

I was lying down, the door was gently pushed open, I thought it was the second uncle coming back, so I sat up, I saw that it was glasses that came in. He smiled when he saw me, "Brother Ran, you are really here." As he spoke, he pointed his finger back, "The Tan family prepared dinner and sent it to each room, I saw that there was no one in your room, so I wanted to come and tell you." ”

I nodded, "Okay, I see, thanks." The glasses waved their hands. Then I asked, "Why is there no one in this house to deliver food?" ”

The glasses thought for a while, "Then it is estimated that the second master will not come back to eat, and his old man must have been invited to eat Xiaozao." ”

"Let's go," the glasses pulled me, "The second master estimates that he won't be able to come back for a while, let's go and fill my stomach first." ”

I thought about it and went back to my room.

As soon as I entered the room, I saw the food on the table, to be honest, the quality of the food was really good, but a single room per person, a meal per person, always gave people a feeling of prison. I feel uncomfortable, but my stomach is already growling with hunger. Soon, I was taking the food on the table into a wreck.

I got up and came to the second uncle's room again, and found that the second uncle still hadn't come back, I couldn't help but be a little worried, according to what the second uncle said, the eldest sister of the Tan family is actually the daughter of the Tan family, and some people suspected that the death of the Tan family was related to the second uncle, so if the eldest sister of the Tan family has not let go of the doubts in her heart, then will she attack my second uncle at this time.

Thinking of this, I turned around and walked out. There was a guy from the Tan family guarding the door, and when he saw that I was going out, he hurriedly walked over, "Young Master Zhuo, where are you going?" ”

"Oh, I'm just going out for a walk." I raised my hand and pointed out the door.

The guy smiled, "That's the case, Young Master Zhuo, there are some places here that are in disrepair, and you don't know the situation when you first come here, and it may be dangerous, so if you want to go out for a walk, we will send someone to accompany you." ”

"No need." I waved my hand, "I'm just walking around the neighborhood." ”

"It's okay, they'll follow you from a distance and won't bother you." Although this guy was smiling, he didn't give in at all. Actually, I also understand that this is not an escort at all, or any kind of security, this is simply a kind of surveillance in disguise.

With that said, I went back to my room. I was hoping to find an escape route that would avoid the guards at the door. There is a window in the room, but it has been locked with iron bars. I went over and looked at it, and it was still very strong, and it seemed that it would be difficult to get out of here.
