Chapter 284 Huangquan Mansion
"And another thing, Fang Duobing, I remember the first time I met you, you were the one Li Lianhua threw off the Lotus Tower, right? How come he said he admired your talent and wanted to investigate the case with you?"
Wu You thought back to when she first came to this world and saw Fang Duobing lying alone by the roadside, and she couldn't help but laugh.
"Still talking about this?" Fang Duobing glanced at Li Lianhua: "She's clearly my master, she clearly knows my identity, and she clearly knows I've been looking for you."
"They kept everything from me, never told me anything, and repeatedly abandoned me, just leaving me by the roadside. Weren't they afraid I'd get bitten by poisonous snakes and wolves?"
Upon hearing this, Li Lianhua guiltily touched her nose and said, "Don't worry about that. I've sprinkled a lot of snake repellent powder around you, so this won't happen."
"Alright, alright, we're not here to dredge up the past. Since it's already happened, and you've both agreed to each other's terms, let's just let bygones be bygones for now!"
Wu You suggested to the two of them, "Hua Hua, what do you think?"
"Okay, Fang Xiaobao, although I didn't want you to be involved in what happened before, I did lie to you. I promise that I will never hide anything from you if you ask about it in the future."
Compared to when they first met, Fang was ill. At that time, he regarded Fang as a junior, a rich young master who was new to the world and knew nothing.
Now, after spending so much time together, he is no longer just my apprentice, but also my close friend.
“Since Li Lianhua has agreed, what about you, Fang Duobing?” Wu turned to Fang Duobing.
Fang Duobing glanced at Li Lianhua, then at Wu You, and spoke arrogantly.
"Since he's agreed, then I'll reluctantly agree as well. But you have to tell him that my conditions aren't so easy to meet, hmph."
Wu You didn't reply, but instead shrugged at Li Lianhua. They were already standing face to face, and she still had to relay the message herself.
"Okay, I heard you." Li Lianhua smiled.
"Let's leave the past behind and investigate why Doctor Xue came to these ruins in the backyard."
"it is good."
After agreeing on their plan, the group dispersed to search for clues in various locations.
The area has not yet been repaired. Half of the collapsed building is still standing in its original position, while the other part that fell to the ground is covered by weeds, making it look extremely desolate.
There was also a small pool filled with years of untreated moss and rotting plant roots and leaves, which looked ugly and smelly.
It's fair to say that there's absolutely no place here where you can enjoy the scenery.
"Wait a minute." Li Lianhua stopped at a certain spot.
"Huahua, have you found any clues?" Wu You heard Li Lianhua's voice and quickly walked over.
“Look at this.” Li Lianhua used a stick she picked up from the ground to clear away the waist-high weeds, revealing a plaque.
"What is this, Bai...Shui...Yuan?" Fang Duobing asked, pointing to the somewhat illegible characters on the plaque.
"Duh, do I even need to say that? Of course, that's what this garden used to be called."
“Youyou is right, this garden was originally called Baishui Garden.”
After thinking for a moment, Li Lianhua voiced her guess: "This spring is white water, could this be the Yellow Springs Palace?"
"Could it be that my mother bought a house in the underworld? It can't be a coincidence, can it?" Fang Duobing was clearly somewhat skeptical.
“You’re right,” Wu You agreed.
"But does the 'Yan' in 'Yan Mansion' refer to the Ten Kings of Hell?"
