"Old man, why can't you see the rich Wang family in Qingfeng City?"
"Let's go, everyone has moved away.
The Wang family dispersed their servants a year ago, and the rest have moved away."
"Old man, do you know where the Wang family has moved?"
"I don't know.
The Wang family moved at night.
Once it was dawn, no one was seen coming in or out.
Only then did the surrounding neighbors realize that the Wang family's house was empty and completely deserted."
"Oh, that's it.
Thank you, old man."
Gu Tian, who was squatting on the ground, nodded, then stood up and walked towards the closed gate of the Wang family courtyard.
Behind him, there was an old man sitting on the threshold, basking in the afternoon sun.
Gu Tian walked to the front door of Wang's house.
There was a big lock hanging on the nose of the door, which was covered with a layer of dust.
It could be seen that no one had been in the yard for a while.
After standing in front of the door and watching for a while, he stepped back from the stone steps in front of the door and walked around the courtyard wall.
The Wang family's residence can be regarded as one of the best in Qingfeng City.
It covers a large area and has tall and long walls.
Gu Tian turned along the courtyard wall and entered an alley.
He looked around and saw that no one was paying attention.
With a push of his legs, he plucked onions from dry land, climbed over the courtyard wall, and landed lightly in the courtyard.
Entering the courtyard, I glanced around.
The whole garden was filled with grass that was as tall as half a person.
If I squatted down slightly, my body would be completely covered by the grass.
In fact, he was not in a hurry to walk in, but found a place with dense grass and leaned down.
I was cautious and wanted to wait and see if anyone was still in this house.
After a while, there was no movement in the courtyard, so he felt relieved and walked towards the main room of the inner courtyard, but he still walked softly and slowly.
Passing through two moon gates, we came to a yard that was larger than the front yard.
Having lived in the Wang family for so many years, he knew that this courtyard was the inner courtyard of the Wang family and where the head of the Wang family and sisters Wang Shan and Wang Qian lived.
Although he was nominally Wang Shan's fiancé and the son-in-law of the Wang family, he had always lived in the front yard.
This was his first time in the inner yard.
In the center of the inner courtyard is a path paved with bluestones, with a thick locust tree on each side.
Under the locust tree on the left, a stone table can be vaguely seen hidden in the grass.
Gu Tian just glanced around the courtyard, then stopped and went straight to the door of the house in the center.
The door of this room was only ajar, not locked, and some weeds grew into the house along the cracks in the door.
Gently pushing the door open with your hand, a puff of dust fell.
Even the door handle was covered with dust.
You didn't need to guess to know that no one had entered or left this room for a long time.
Walking into the house, the tables and chairs in the house were covered with dust, and there were even spider webs woven by spiders in some places, hanging in every corner.
After taking a few glances at the furnishings in the house, there was no mess at all.
It seemed that the people left in no hurry, and it was even neater than a normal move.
Gu Tian looked at the arrangement in the house and frowned.
Wang Shan joined the Demon Sect.
If the Wang family was worried about being implicated, they should have been very flustered when they left, instead of being neat as they were in front of them.
With confusion in his heart, he walked towards the back room and entered another smaller room.

As soon as you enter the house, you can see a tall bookshelf standing in front of one wall, with a brown desk and a round-backed Taishi chair next to it.
There is an oil lamp placed in one corner of the desk.
Obviously, this is the study room of the Wang family.
But what surprised him was that the bookshelves were densely packed with books.
When the Wang family left, they didn't take these books away at all, but they were all thrown here.
Gutian circled around the study, and everything in the house remained as it was when the owner left it.
Apart from the fact that the house was covered in dust, it was hard to imagine that no one had been here for a long time.
As he turned around and looked at the furnishings in the room, he suddenly tripped and his body lost balance and hit the vase next to the bookshelf.
"Hey" Gu Tian exclaimed, gently pushing the vase beside him with his hand, and found that the vase did not move at all, as if it was growing on the ground.
After pushing for a few times without success, he put his head on the mouth of the vase and took a look inside.
He found that the vase in front of him was the same as an ordinary vase, no different at all.
He thought that some mechanisms were made of vases and the like, so he turned the vase with his hand and found that the vase could rotate.
He immediately thought that there was a mechanism in the study.
He first turned the vase to the left three times with his hand, and did not stop until it couldn't turn anymore.
Then he turned the vase to the right three times, and stopped after it couldn't turn anymore.
At this moment, I heard a clicking sound, and then I saw the bookshelf moving slowly, and finally revealed a hole that could accommodate one person.
With curiosity, Gu Tian carefully entered the cave.
As an innate warrior, he could already see at night, so he didn't feel any discomfort when walking in the dark cave.
There are stone steps leading to the underground at the entrance of the cave, but there are not many, about a dozen.
You can see the flat ground under the stone steps at a glance.
There is only one passage in the cave, so there is no need to worry about getting lost or finding the way you came.
Looking at the direction the cave leads to, you should be able to reach the other end of the cave by walking straight forward.
Even if you encounter danger, you can retreat along the original path.
After walking for a while inside the cave, he found some more stone steps in front of him, leading to the top, and thought that the other end of the cave should be in front of him.
His feet sped up a bit, but his body was on guard because he didn't know what was on the other side of the hole, so there was nothing wrong with being careful.
When he rushed out of the cave, he found himself in a rockery, and at the same time a ray of light shone into the rockery.
He mentally calculated the distance he had walked in the cave, combined with the location of Qingfeng City where the Wang family's residence was located, and finally determined that he was still in Qingfeng City.
When he came outside the rockery, he raised his eyes and looked around, and found that he was in a mansion.
Judging from the size of the yard, it is no smaller than the Wang family's house, and is even a point or two larger.
"This is" Gu Tian walked on the bluestone road in the courtyard, looking around, and suddenly said in surprise: "This is the courtyard of the Mo family of the martial arts family.
Could it be that the disappearance of the Wang family has something to do with the Mo family."
Based on the size of the house, Gu Tian recognized the owner of the house.
The only yard in Qingfeng City that was larger than the Wang family's house was the house of the Mo family, the only martial arts family in Qingfeng City.
With doubts in his mind, Gu Tian walked forward along the bluestone road.
There were many dead leaves on the bluestone road under his feet, and the yard was also full of weeds.
Judging from the decay of the Mo family's house, it seems that no one has lived here for a long time, so that the yard has become so desolate.
Not far away, there was a pavilion.
The pool under the pavilion had dried up long ago, and there were dry and hard mud left at the bottom of the pool.
Gu Tian quickened his pace and soon arrived at the door of a room in the Mo family compound.
Pushing open the door, he found that the tables and chairs inside were neatly arranged and not messy at all, except that the table was covered with a thick layer of dust.
The Mo family's yard looks the same as the Wang family's, neatly arranged but uninhabited for a long time
