Chapter 467: News one after another, Mo Mo's trace
Chapter 467: News one after another, Mo Mo's trace
The news was discovered quite quickly, but it wasn't too surprising, since he was from the city after all.
Gao You said, "This Chen Sangsang, although she's the Chen family's legitimate daughter, wasn't particularly favored and kept a low profile. But three months ago, she suddenly made a high-profile appearance, redecorating the dowry shop and opening what is now known as 'Chen's Hot Pot.' Within a month, the restaurant was raking in millions of dollars, and business was booming. The Chen family then merged the two adjacent shops to expand to its current size."
"It's said that many people in the Chen family are interested in arranging a marriage for her, but I don't know how she convinced the Chen family master to reject all the marriage proposals. But strangely, in recent days, the Chen family has been intentionally or unintentionally spreading Chen Sangsang's good name around the city. This has attracted a constant stream of people coming to propose marriage, but they are all politely rejected."
After hearing what Gao You said, Si He thought of the time at noon when the waiter praised Miss Chen San endlessly, as if endorsing her. She felt strange at the time, but now she understood the intention behind it.
Gao You continued, "During these three months, in addition to managing the 'Chen's Hot Pot' business, Chen Sangsang also secretly invited some magicians to come in and learn from them some methods of exorcism. He also frequently visited treasure shops and the Ruyuan Tower, purchasing a number of items to ward off evil spirits."
Si He raised her eyebrows slightly. "A young lady, with a drastic change of temperament, is learning to exorcise evil spirits?"
This is consistent with the situation of time travel. The current Chen Sangsang is no longer the lady she used to be.
But learning how to exorcise evil spirits...
In addition, there is something strange about Chen Sangsang's attitude towards her.
She was sure she was not mistaken. Chen Sangsang's fear of her seemed to be deep in her bones, and there were other complex emotions hidden in her eyes.
This Chen Sangsang might not be just an ordinary time traveler.
Si He turned to Gao You and said, "Send someone to keep an eye on Chen Sangsang. Also, check the current situation of the Guo family for me."
Gao You replied, "Yes."
The next day, Yue Fuli still did not come back, but the housekeeper sent some invitations. The ladies of some famous families in the city invited her or wanted to visit her. After thinking about it, Si He politely declined all of them and did not see any of them.
On the third day, news came that a dispute had broken out again on the border between Jizhou and Zhongzhou, and the fighting was very fierce. This made the atmosphere in the city tense, and many people began to go out less and stay at home as much as possible.
Si He also stayed in the house obediently and did not go out again.
I thought the dispute would end soon, but it lasted for a month. Fortunately, no bad news came.
People were sent to inquire about the situation of the Guo family, and they also got some news. It was said that the Guo family was in chaos, with evil spirits causing great trouble. There was also a fire, and many people died. The Guo family was now uninhabitable, and the survivors moved out.
That's why the Guo family sent someone to send her a message asking for help. She looked at the letter for help, a sneer appeared on her lips, and then she threw it aside.
It seems that this time, the remnant soul did not disappoint her. She was thinking about when to go to Guang'an City to check the harvest and see the situation of the remnant soul.
But at this time, Ruyuan Tower also delivered news about the traces of giant snakes appearing in several places, and it has been confirmed that it is a huge black snake, but it is not known whether it is Mo Mo.
Because there are many different opinions about the shape of this snake.
Si He looked at the places mentioned in the news, all of which were quite far away from Wucheng.
What surprised Si He even more was that since they had sent people to keep an eye on Chen Sangsang's movements, and heard that he had been going in and out of Ruyuan Tower quite frequently during this period, they found out that Chen Sangsang was also trying to find out the news about the giant snake!
Si He frowned slightly, which reminded her that when she went to Ruyuan Tower to inquire about the news, someone had already asked Ruyuan Tower before her.
Now it seems that this person is Chen Sangsang.
This made Si He feel that this person was more and more strange. A time traveler, judging from the situation, had not been in this world for long, only a few months. Why would he pay attention to a giant snake?
How did she know about Mo Mo's existence?
And she is very brave. From the information she has gathered, it is obvious that she is targeting Mo Mo. Why does she want to target Mo Mo?
A bunch of questions flashed through her mind, forcing her to start paying attention to Chen Sangsang!
Afterwards, the guards who were following him brought news that Chen Sangsang had left the city, not only with a group of guards, but also with several mages!
After Chen Sangsang left the city, he headed towards the riverside where Mo Mo had appeared!
After hearing the news, Si He immediately stood up with a serious expression.
At this moment, even Gao You and Gao Zi noticed something. Chen Sangsang's behavior was too strange. A young lady not only inquired about the whereabouts of the giant snake, but also took people out of the city. It was obvious that she was going after the giant snake!
The two men suddenly became curious. Why were they all trying to find out the whereabouts of the giant snake? Even their wives attached great importance to it. What was so special about the giant snake?
Just as Si He was planning to leave the city, another guard came to report that Yue Fuli would return the next day.
Now, she hesitated.
She had hoped that he would come back soon, but now that he was about to come back, she felt a little embarrassed. She was naturally happy that he was safe, but it was not convenient for her to leave the city at this time.
She thought about it for a while, and finally sighed lightly. She decided to temporarily give up the idea of leaving the city immediately and wait until Yue Fuli came back tomorrow before leaving.
Moreover, the news sent by Ruyuan Tower only said that there were traces of giant snakes appearing in several places and their whereabouts were unknown.
Momo is so smart and hiding in the river, it is not easy for ordinary people to catch him. After all, he has survived for so many years.
Despite such thoughts, Si He was still a little worried and just hoped that Mo Mo would be smart.
If Chen Sangsang really had some bad idea...
Si He's expression was cold, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in her eyes.
……
The next day, she got up early, washed and dressed, ate something, and then went to the front yard to wait.
The weather was a bit gloomy today, a rare cloudy day that she liked, but because she was worried about Momo's condition, she was not in a very good mood.
However, today is the day Yue Fuli returns, and she should be happy.
She tried her best to calm herself down and put on a faint smile.
After waiting for about half an hour, a servant came to bring news that Yue Fuli had already entered the city and was on his way back.
Upon hearing this, Si He quickly walked to the gate and waited there in person.
After a while, there was a lively noise coming from outside the long street. Si He looked in the direction of the sound and saw a familiar figure riding a horse, galloping down the long street.
