In the dense forest, the light is dim, and it is difficult to get in even when the sun is at its last, so time seems to disappear in such a place.

When Cheng Min and Luo Bei walked out to get the dilapidated fence gate, the sunlight outside was still very good, but it had already begun to slope westward.

Cheng Min carefully closed the door, only to find that the clothes on the two people were already dirty and could no longer be dirty.

In fact, it was normal, it was full of rotten fallen leaves, and with all kinds of behaviors around the corpse, it would be strange if it could still come out cleanly.

"We have to go back and change this clothes first...... Cheng Min looked around and found that there was no one around, so he said to Luobei.

So, the two of them deliberately avoided the sporadic maids and subordinates, and made a big bend before returning to the residence, taking off their dirty clothes and putting on clean ones.

Cheng Min saw that Luobei was a little distracted as if he was looking for something, so he asked, "What, what are you looking for?"

Luo Bei hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No...... Nothing, just such a big white cat......"

He compared the size of the big white with his hands, and it has been two days, and this guy has not come back yet.

"I can't believe you still have such a preference......"

Cheng Min thought about it and said, "Let's go, let's go out and have a look, maybe someone is already looking for us......"

As soon as the two of them walked out of the path, they saw two subordinates in coarse cloth clothes hurriedly walking in the direction of the front hall, even if they saw Cheng Min and Luo Bei, they didn't pay attention to it at all, and finally turned into running.

Luo Bei remembered these two people, the two people who stood behind him when the fourth uncle went to pick him up outside the door that day.

"I don't know what happened again, why do they look so flustered?" Luo Bei couldn't help but say as he looked at the backs of the two.

Cheng Min smiled and said, "It's normal for something to happen from time to time in such a big mansion, let's go over and take a look......

By the time they walked over, there were already a few people gathered in front of the front hall, not knowing what had happened.

One of the older stewards leaned over and seemed to be in the crowd admonishing someone.

However, after saying a lot of words, it still didn't have much effect, so he could only stand up and whisper a few words in the ear of a middle-aged man beside him, and then saw the man quickly run out.

Luo Bei came to the middle of the crowd, and when he saw it, it turned out that there was a white-haired old man kneeling on the ground, hanging his head, not saying a word, and everyone kept persuading him to get up, but no matter who persuaded him, he just ignored it.

Luo Bei looked down and found that this old man was none other than Su Quan, who had led him all the way to Wanfu.

Only then did he remember that since that day, he had never seen this enthusiastic old man again, and he didn't know where he had gone, but he didn't expect to suddenly appear again today, but why did he kneel here even if everyone persuaded him?

Luo Bei was a little puzzled, and just when he wanted to step forward and ask, the middle-aged man who left ran back again.

The middle-aged man nodded to everyone, and then soon, he saw the fourth uncle walking out of a small door on the side of the front hall.

These days, the fourth uncle is indeed a headache, not only has there been a murder, but he has just experienced a fire, and the government is up and down, where there is no need for people to run around.

It just so happened that Wan Ruhai was seriously injured and had to retreat to recuperate, so all the burden fell on his shoulders.

The fourth uncle's footsteps are still very steady, but from a distance, his already somewhat rickety back seems to be hanging more seriously.

He didn't panic when he encountered something like ordinary stewards, just seeing his steady pace, the people who were originally a little overwhelmed suddenly quieted down.

"Isn't this Mr. Su! What is there to discuss, how can we do this?"

After that, the fourth uncle frowned slightly, looked coldly at a few stewards around him, and said in a deep voice: "Don't you people even understand the truth of hospitality?

As soon as these words came out, almost everyone trembled with fright, lowered their heads and did not dare to speak.

Hearing the fourth uncle's voice, Su Quan slowly raised his head, but he still didn't get up, and said to the fourth uncle: "Fourth...... Fourth uncle, I'm ...... I would like to see Mr. Wan......"

The fourth uncle smiled faintly and helped him up unhurriedly, Su Quan was grabbed by his arm with one hand, and Su Quan was pulled up lightly without seeing how to exert himself.

Su Quan didn't seem to react, and looked at the fourth uncle in a daze, not knowing what to do.

Cheng Min pulled Luo Bei to the back and whispered in his ear: "It seems that the fourth uncle's martial arts are unfathomable, just such a simple action is not only a polite way to pull people up, but also a deterrent......

Luo Bei was a little stunned, although he could see that the martial arts cultivation on the fourth uncle was not weak, but it was difficult for him to imagine deterrence.

"Mr. Su doesn't know, the old man is in retreat now, and he really can't come forward to meet him, I don't know what Old Mr. Su wants to see the old man?" The fourth uncle looked at Su Quan with a smile and said slowly.

"I heard that the house has been ...... recently. It's been a bit rough lately, so ...... I thought if I could...... I...... Can...... Take Xiaohong away......" Su Quan trembled a little, and seemed to have scruples in his heart, so he spoke intermittently.

Listening to him finish his words with great difficulty, the fourth uncle was silent for a while, then looked at Su Quan with a gentle expression, and said with a smile: "It turns out that this is the case, there has indeed been something wrong in the house recently, but it has been investigated, it is some personal grievances, if you don't believe it, you can ask Mr. Cheng Min, the chief catcher of Zhu Xian Town, who personally investigated this matter......"

After speaking, he turned his gaze to Cheng Min at the back of the crowd.

Then all eyes also focused on Cheng Min, Luo Bei could not imagine how Cheng Min would answer this question, the two of them had just found Kang Yu's body, and it was probably too early to say that this matter would end, but in the eyes of others, Yan Chunliu's death meant suicide in fear of sin.

He looked at Cheng Min and saw that he was touching his beard again, and then the corners of his mouth turned up, smiling a little mysteriously.

He neither nodded nor denied it, but said with a smile: "Fourth uncle, I think this old man just thinks about his daughter, since it is a matter between father and daughter, it is better to let the father and daughter solve it, right?"

Cheng Min deliberately didn't make a proposal, but threw the question back, and then he looked at the fourth uncle with a flat gaze.

The fourth uncle nodded silently, as if he didn't see what he was really trying to express, and said: "Cheng Zhutou is right, since it is a matter between father and daughter, it doesn't matter what others say, so let's ask Su Xiaohong what he means first! What do you say, Mr. Su?"

Su Quan didn't know why, but he lowered his head at the moment, as if he was a little depressed.

Cheng Min felt a little unfamiliar when he heard the name "Su Xiaohong", and then he looked at Luobei, and saw that Luobei was also at a loss, he naturally didn't know that although Luobei had seen Su Xiaohong, she was dressed in an ordinary dress, and every time she was almost in the corner outside the crowd, extremely inconspicuous, so it was difficult to have a deep impression of her.

The fourth uncle sent a maid to find Su Xiaohong, and it didn't take long for him to see a girl dressed very plainly following behind the maid, bowing her head, and walking towards them.

Cheng Min and Luo Bei both looked at this girl together, not only was she dressed very ordinary, but her appearance was not good-looking, but she was the most ordinary girl in ordinary people.

There are not many women in the house, and they all have different styles.

Liu Feiyan is charming, Wen Qingqing is pure, Mrs. Feng exudes mature beauty, and even the dead Kang Yu is slim and lovely.

So no one pays attention to this ordinary girl, and it can be considered normal that she can't be an ordinary girl.

But as soon as Su Quan saw the girl coming towards Yingying, his whole person's expression suddenly changed.

The wrinkles on his old face seemed to be deeper, his expression was extremely gloomy, and tears slipped silently in an instant.

"Little ...... Xiaohong ......" Su Quan said a little choked.

Su Xiaohong didn't seem to hear what he said, but looked at everyone with a slightly red face, and then bowed lightly to the fourth uncle.

The fourth uncle nodded, and then said: "Xiaohong, it has been many years since the master took you in, and you have grown up, and now you are ......" He looked at Su Quan slightly, and continued: "Now that your father is going to take you out of the house, I can't wait to answer for you, and I asked you to come here to ask for your thoughts......"

Su Xiaohong's originally blushing face suddenly turned a lot whiter, and she hadn't glanced at her father Su Quan, whose hair had turned gray, since she came to everyone.

At this moment, her head, which had been deliberately lowered, finally raised and looked at the person in front of her, who looked extremely old compared to her age.

There was a deep sense of strangeness in her eyes, not even a hint of emotional fluctuation.

"Come with you? Do you want to sell it again? Do you lose the gamble again this time or do you steal someone's money?"

Su Xiaohong's words were very cold, and the cold made everyone stunned.

The most surprising should be Luobei, since he met Su Quan in front of the gate of Kaifeng City, his feelings for this person have not been bad, not only has a thoroughness after years of precipitation, but also is so enthusiastic...... But how could his daughter say such a thing?

Could it be that the old man in front of him, who looks like a fairy-like bone, is also a gambler who is so unbearable that he wants to sell his sons and daughters?

He even hoped that Su Quan would solemnly raise his head and tell his daughter that he was not that kind of person.

But the truth was almost the opposite of what he imagined, Su Quan hung his head, and didn't even dare to look at his daughter more.

"Since you don't know, where do you want me to go with you...... What's more, I haven't repaid the kindness for more than ten years......" Su Xiaohong no longer looked at Su Quan, as if she had been prepared for Su Quan's performance, so after saying goodbye to everyone in front of her, she left quietly.

It's hard to imagine that such an inconspicuous girl has such a stubborn and independent temperament, and perhaps it was this kind of life experience that made her say what she said today.

It is not close to people, but also full of misery and helplessness.

Su Xiaohong left, not even a trace of nostalgia, not even looking back.

But Su Quan kept his head down, until this moment, Su Xiaohong gradually went away, but he suddenly knelt down.

Looking at his daughter's back as she faded away, he burst into tears.

"Xiaohong, it was Dad who hurt you...... Daddy hurt you......"

......

Su Quan didn't wait for Su Xiaohong's turn, and finally could only leave gloomily, when he stood in front of the gate and looked back at the courtyard, Cheng Min pulled Luo Bei and appeared behind him.

"Old gentleman, Cheng Min is the head catcher in the town, how about letting him go out?" Cheng Min said lightly with his hands behind his back.

Su Quan turned his head with a sad expression, and when he saw Luobei, the look on his face suddenly became a little unnatural.

"How dare you do this...... Decaying ...... Hey, I've done too many foolish things in this life......"

Cheng Min walked over and patted Su Quan's shoulder twice, and then the two of them walked towards the door next to each other, leaving Luo Bei to follow them.

After the two of them walked out of the gate, they walked a long way along the bluestone road in front of the door, and it was not until the sunset that Cheng Min returned alone.

He saw that Luo Bei's mood seemed to be a little wrong, so he asked, "What's wrong?"

Luo Bei looked at the sunset in the distance, and was silent for a long time before he said: "I can't imagine that there is such a father in the world, and even his daughter can be sold ......."

Cheng Min smiled faintly and said: "It is a debt that is difficult to calculate between this father and daughter, and it may be difficult to say who owes it to whom......

Luo Bei looked at him a little strangely when he heard this, he didn't know what the two of them said when they walked so far, why did Cheng Min's attitude become so strange?

Cheng Min smiled and said, "What, don't you think I'm particularly mysterious?"

"I'm telling you, there's more to the world than black and white...... Look there......"

He raised his head, looked at the sky, pointed to the red clouds of the sunset in the sky, and continued: "The sunset at this moment is as beautiful as a painting...... But it won't be long before night falls......"

"However, compared with the vagaries of heaven and earth, the human heart is really the most mysterious thing!"
