    Perhaps Tan Rou’s filial piety had touched the heavens, and she found traces of that medicinal herb. The medicinal herbs were a collection of an old man. It was said that he had collected them for more than 50 years, waiting for him to use them when he was old. No matter what, he refused to give it to them.


    After Tan Rou heard the news, she decided to personally go and find the old man.


    Zhuang Liu apanied her. If the old man was unwilling to take out the medicinal herbs, then he would think of a way to help Tan Rou get the medicinal herbs.


    The two of them drove for a long time before they found the old man who had hidden the medicinal herbs in the remote suburbs. As soon as they arrived at their destination, Tan Rou was shocked by this ce. This ce was not a simple house, but a tall ancient building.


    “There’s such a ce in the capital?” Tan Rou was very surprised. “This house has been built for at least a few hundred years, right?”


    Zhuang Liu nodded and said, “Yes. Originally, the government wanted to demolish this area, but the residents here were unwilling. They insisted that this was a treasurend with good feng shui and could not be demolished. The government couldn’t do anything about it. They could only persuade the vigers while looking for other ces to develop.”


    Tan Rou felt that it would be a pity if such a historical ce was torn down. It was good to keep it now.


    “The person we’re looking for is in the innermost part of the vige. Let’s go over first.” Zhuang Liu followed the address his subordinate had given him.


    “I heard that the old man has a very bad temper. He doesn’t have a wife or children and rarely interacts with others. He’s probably not easy to get along with.”


    “It’s okay. As long as we’re a little more amiable, he definitely won’t make things too difficult for us.” Tan Rou had to get the herbs this time.


    Their arrival attracted the attention of the vigers. Both adults and children were secretly watching them. Some enthusiastic people even wanted to invite them back to their homes.


    This was a group of ancient buildings, so many history lovers woulde here for research. Some architecture and art students would alsoe here to collect wind.


    Since people wereing, they needed a hotel and a ce to stay. Therefore, the vigers here vacated their spare houses to make homestays, and the food they prepared was also home-cooked.


    Tan Rou and Zhuang Liu were rtively young. When the vigers saw them, they thought that they were also students who came here to learn. They insisted on pulling them over to their homes as guests.


    The two of them had important things to do. They definitely wouldn’t stay here for dinner. They asked, “Big Sister, do you know an old man named Zhang Feng here?”


    Hearing them mention Zhang Feng, the people who had greeted them warmly immediately walked away as if they had seen something dirty.


    Tan Rou was a little puzzled. She pulled thedy back and stuffed two hundred yuan into her hand. Then, she asked, “Sister, is there anyone called Zhang Feng here?”


    Thedy epted Tan Rou’s money and was too embarrassed to leave. She said a few more words to her, “The Zhang Feng you’re looking for is at the westernmost part of the vige. That eerie house belongs to his family. But I have to remind you not to look for him. That old man has a very strange temper and is very fierce. No one in the vige dares to approach him.”


    Tan Rou thanked Big Sis Xie and gave her another 200. “Sister, please take us to that old man. We have something important to talk to him about.”


    When thedy saw the money, she smiled like a flower. She no longer cared about how scary the house was. “Aiya, how can I do this? Come,e,e. I’ll bring you to that old man, but I won’t go near him.”


    Tan Rou naturally wouldn’t make things difficult for her. “Thank you so much.”


    The elder sister led the way while Tan Rou and Zhuang Liu followed behind. Thedy was a very talkative person. In just ten minutes, she had told them everything about the entire vige. The most she talked about was naturally the strange old man.


    The elder sister said that when she was young, the old man lived in an old house in the west of the vige. At that time, he was not an old man, but a young man who did not speak much. He went out to work every day and went back to sleep at night. He rarely talked to the vigers. Then one day, he fell seriously ill. After that, he began to be mysterious and his personality became even stranger.


    Tan Rou and Zhuang Liu looked at each other. They felt that this trip would not be simple.
