Chapter 256 Doubtful Points
That's all the contents of the secret room. There is neither information that can confirm the identity of the owner of the secret room, nor information about the personnel of the City Lord's Mansion.

"We still have to search the entire City Lord's Mansion." Qian Siwu shook his head and said with some disappointment.

The three of them left the secret room and continued to search the mansion, even the room where the servants lived.

Speaking of eternal youth, most people's first reaction is women, so they first searched the rooms of the city lord's concubines.

They searched and found out that the city lord has a total of seventeen concubines, which is too exaggerated.

It was late at night to search through all the seventeen rooms, but they found nothing.

These rooms are very normal, just an ordinary room where people live.

But the more this is the more problematic.

Qian Siwu felt that there must be something wrong with these seventeen rooms, so he specially took a pen and paper to write down the characteristics of these seventeen rooms.

For example, the people in the first room like to wear blue clothes, the people in the second room have a lot of gold and silver jewelry, and the people in the third room have a lot of rouge and gouache, etc. After remembering these characteristics, I really found out .

Among the seventeen rooms, seven rooms have the same clothes, three rooms have the same ornaments, and four rooms have the same rouge box, and even the traces of use are exactly the same.

On the one hand, Qian Siwu suspects that this is the same "sticker" that Jingling used lazily, on the other hand, he also suspects that this is really made by the City Lord's Mansion on purpose.

Qian Siwu couldn't figure it out himself, so he could only share this discovery with others.

Huo Jiuheng looked at what she remembered, touched his chin and pondered for a moment, and said, "Could this be arranged like this on purpose?"

"I think it's possible, otherwise there's no way to explain why they're all the same, the others are just the same, and the traces of rouge use are the same, it's outrageous." Liang Shuyun agreed.

"Then what is the purpose of deliberately arranging it like this?" Qian Siwu asked following their words.

Neither Huo Jiuheng nor Liang Shuyun answered.

They know too little information, so they can't answer it, even if they have a brain hole.

"Hey, by the way, I remember a pregnant woman was painted on the painting in the study room, but I didn't see any children's things when I searched these rooms." Liang Shuyun suddenly asked a question.

"Whether the child is born or not, there should be something for the child." Liang Shuyun added.

Indeed, if someone is pregnant, they will definitely prepare the children's clothes. Even if the child is gone later, these prepared clothes will be put away and will not be destroyed.

"So is anyone pregnant?" Liang Shuyun looked at them and asked this question, "If so, who is it? If not, why did the city want to draw a pregnant woman?"

"Could it be the outer room?" Qian Siwu said that he didn't even believe it.

"I think since there are so many women in his house, there shouldn't be one more, right?" Liang Shuyun said rather speechlessly.

"Then you have to put it this way, apart from the study room, there are very few belongings of the city lord in this mansion. Could it be that the city lord doesn't live here?" Huo Jiuheng also raised a doubt.

There are too many doubts and too little information, and the reasoning cannot go on. All three feel very frustrated.

While the three were silent, others came over.

"Master!" You Ling's voice sounded not far away, and the three of them looked at the source of the voice together.

"Master, you came so early." You Ling stood between Qian Siwu and Liang Shuyun as soon as he arrived, separating them.

"We came in during the day, and we didn't get much out of it." Qian Siwu explained the current situation.

"How is your inquiry outside?" Qian Siwu looked at them and asked.

When the plot of the city lord's mansion is stuck, it may be rewarding to walk other lines.

Everyone went to the living room of the City Lord's Mansion and sat down to share the news they got today.

"The weather in Four Seasons City changes really quickly. It's getting hotter and hotter during the day, and now it's a bit colder. When we came, there were fallen leaves on the road outside. It should be autumn." Xie Yingxing first talked about the change in the weather.

"We asked some people in the city and found that they didn't have any doubts about the change of the weather. In their eyes, a season has passed, and they have no memory of us." Chen Nanbing continued, "So I think they stared at the weather. We look because we haven't seen us."

"What else?" Qian Siwu wrote down everything they said.

"I found out that the Four Seasons City has not had a city lord for more than ten years. Many servants who used to work in the city lord's mansion are dead, and those who are not dead are already very old." One person said.

"It's definitely not more than ten years. Although there is a lot of dust here, there are no spider webs, which proves that this place has not been abandoned for too long." Qian Siwu directly denied his statement.

"So the city lord's mansion and we lived at the same time." Liang Shuyun thought for a while and said, "If we spend four days a year, this place will be ruined for two to three months."

"How did those people die?" Qian Siwu asked.

"I didn't ask that." Everyone shook their heads.

"Then let's talk about the situation in the City Lord's Mansion first, and then you can talk about what you found out." Qian Siwu explained the situation here in detail.

The situation in the city lord's mansion is said, and other people know what information they should share.

"I found out that the reason why the city lord's mansion has been abandoned for more than ten years is because there were man-eating beasts outside the city before. The city lord took people to drive away the wild beasts, but they were eaten by the wild beasts. After the people in the city lord's mansion found out, they all left the city lord. That's why the mansion was abandoned." Xie Yingxing said first.

"It definitely didn't leave, maybe it disappeared." Liang Shuyun shook his head and retorted.

"How did the matter with the beast be resolved in the end?" Qian Siwu asked.

"They said that the beasts disappeared by themselves. In the second year after the death of the city lord, the beasts suddenly disappeared. And after the death of the city lord, the beasts did not attack people again, but occasionally there were one or two roars." Xie Yingxing replied .

Qian Siwu nodded and recorded it.

"Does the city lord have any children or descendants?" Seeing that she stopped asking, Liang Shuyun asked herself.

"I've never heard of it." Xie Yingxing shook his head.

"Most of the concubines of the city lord remarried after the death of the city lord. Do you think there will be any blood of the city lord left behind?" A person put forward his guess.

"They all remarried? Tell me carefully." Liang Shuyun looked at him and asked.

"People in the city said that after the death of the city lord, the wife of the city lord went with him, and the other concubines ran away when they saw this, and they didn't even organize the funeral of the city lord and his wife. corpse, and ran away too," the man continued.

"Madam's body? Doesn't the city lord have a body?" Qian Siwu grasped the doubt and asked.

"No, I heard it was eaten by wild animals."
