Ye Wuji indeed had his own thoughts, which led to this situation.
Facing Ye Tiancheng's question, Ye Wuji thought for a moment before speaking again, "I just felt... felt that the person just now, he, he seemed like someone I've met before."
Ye Tiancheng was slightly stunned after hearing Ye Wuji's words.
Ye Tiancheng subconsciously retorted, "Met? Where did you meet him?"
Ye Wuji replied, "When I was at home. Before, at home, he seemed to have visited our house. I only saw him once, but he wasn't a family member or someone we knew. It seemed he was just passing by our house."
"I remember he seemed to have come to our house to ask for directions and for a cup of water."
"Although I only met him once, because of his attire and appearance, he was indeed easy to leave a deep impression on. That's why I remembered. When I saw him just now, it was thinking about this matter that made me unhappy."
"Mainly because of this, I remembered my mom and dad again..."
Ye Tiancheng patted Ye Wuji's head soothingly.
Whether Ye Wuji was telling the complete truth, Ye Tiancheng was not entirely sure. However, Ye Tiancheng could also feel that even if Ye Wuji was hiding something, it wouldn't be out of malice, so there was no need to dwell on it too much.
Everyone has their own secrets they hold dear.
If they are unwilling to speak, there is no need to force them. If they are willing to speak, then listen. If they are unwilling to speak, then there is no need to force them. They will speak when they are ready.
If they don't want to say and you insist on forcing them, it's not a good thing.
After all, no one can use the excuse of doing something for someone else's good to interfere to such an extent.
Perhaps it should be said that some people actually do such things.
However, this does not mean that such behavior is correct, praiseworthy, or worth emulating.
In any case, Ye Tiancheng did not want to force Ye Wuji because of this.
Therefore, after listening to Ye Wuji's words, Ye Tiancheng did not ask any further questions.
However, Ye Wuji mentioning that he had seen the black-robed young man at his home, and that the young man had come to his house to ask for directions and for a cup of water, was indeed too coincidental.
Furthermore, in this place, Ye Wuji's home was so close to the entrance of Luo Qi Mountain in Xiao Jing City.
Could this really be a coincidence?
Ye Tiancheng was somewhat uncertain.
The White Dragon steadily carried Ye Tiancheng and the others, flying in a certain direction, and would reach their destination before long.
However, this destination was indeed something that Ye Tiancheng and the others were extremely familiar with.
After the White Dragon landed with them, Ye Tiancheng and the others were so surprised that they were almost speechless.
Ye Tiancheng's side could be said to be progressing splendidly.
But on Nie Chongyang's side, after encountering Old Master Cui, it could only be said that although their current situation was a bit awkward, after meeting Old Master Cui, it was undeniable that Nie Chongyang and the others also gained a lot.
After all, to understand the situation of this place back then, the easiest way to obtain information was naturally to find the people involved at the time.
Old Master Cui certainly did not appear so early in the timeline of twenty years ago for no reason.
Old Master Cui appeared so early for a reason.
Naturally, it was because he knew quite a lot, and was not uninvolved. He knew many things and had experienced many events back then, which is why he was like this.
Old Master Cui indeed provided Nie Chongyang and the others with many new clues.
Although Nie Chongyang and the others still had some doubts after hearing the clues provided by Old Master Cui.
Whether Nie Chongyang and the others suspected that Old Master Cui was hiding some information, or deliberately lied and omitted certain things, Old Master Cui's memory was clearly no longer the original memory in the real world.
Therefore, under this influence, the reference value of Old Master Cui's memory would naturally decrease significantly.
This was unavoidable.
Moreover, before, in Xiao Jing City, Nie Chongyang and the others had not noticed anything wrong, nor had they felt anything.
However, after reuniting with Old Master Cui in the real world, Nie Chongyang and the others, mainly Nie Chongyang and Liang Ping, had a somewhat complicated feeling towards Old Master Cui.
They felt that Old Master Cui seemed a bit strange, as if something was not quite right.
It was unclear whether it was because the projection in Xiao Jing City still had some differences from the real world, or perhaps he hid it very well, so Nie Chongyang and the others had not noticed that Old Master Cui had issues before. Of course, it was also possible that Nie Chongyang and Liang Ping's attention was mostly diverted by other matters.
Therefore, at that time, they had not paid attention to this matter.
Of course, there was also a very normal possibility.
That is, Old Master Cui might not have any problems himself. It was just that now, everyone involved in the matter from twenty years ago had been affected, and their memories had been altered, causing a sense of dissonance among them, which led to this result.
This was also very possible.
However, in the end, Nie Chongyang and the others only had a general impression of this matter in their hearts. On the surface, they remained calm and did not reveal anything.
If Old Master Cui had no problems, then everyone would be happy.
But if Old Master Cui really had problems, then their temporary inaction was also a good thing. At least it would not alert the enemy and affect their subsequent work.
Nie Chongyang and Liang Ping did possess this level of professionalism.
As for Xiao Miaomiao, whether Xiao Miaomiao had this level of professionalism did not matter much. After all, no one would pay attention to Xiao Miaomiao and ask them to recall Xiao Miaomiao's reaction when something happened.
It was estimated that nine out of ten people would not be able to recall what the scene was like at that time.
The only one who could recall it would definitely be someone familiar with Xiao Miaomiao, someone who understood and paid attention to Xiao Miaomiao, and could notice those things. Otherwise, it would also be impossible, one in ten thousand.
After Nie Chongyang and the others finished understanding the situation from Old Master Cui, they left.
The excuse was naturally that work was important and they needed to continue their investigation.
They would not tell Old Master Cui any more detailed information.
From Old Master Cui, Nie Chongyang and the others had asked what they needed to ask.
Not only that, but Nie Chongyang and the others also kept their movements secret, ensuring that no one else knew their next steps.
After leaving Old Master Cui, Nie Chongyang and the others quickly headed towards the ruined haunted house.
The first thing they needed to do was to try to find the cellar and then find the tomb that had trapped Liang Ping before.
That was clearly not a simple place.
If they could find it, they might be able to find more clues.
It was just that they needed to be extremely careful. If such a place truly existed in reality, then Nie Chongyang and Liang Ping absolutely could not go looking for it alone.
Otherwise, if something happened, they would definitely not be able to handle it.
With Xiao Miaomiao present, at least Nie Chongyang and Liang Ping could feel a little more at ease.
After all, Xiao Miaomiao was already powerful enough.
Nie Chongyang and Liang Ping were also a bit worried. If they ventured into that place alone, and if they could indeed find it and enter it.
What if, when they got there, there were still people active inside? Then Nie Chongyang and Liang Ping would be finished.
The people capable of causing such a situation were likely not simple characters.
At that time, if the other party became ruthless, Nie Chongyang and Liang Ping would definitely not be able to withstand it.
In this situation, they had to find some sandbags for themselves.
Otherwise, in the end, if things spiraled out of control, it would not be a good thing.
In any case, none of them wanted things to turn out this way.
After all, if this plan truly failed, it would only mean that their work would need to continue for a long time.
Nie Chongyang and the others did not want this.
This was not a good thing for them. Nie Chongyang and Liang Ping definitely did not want it.
When they arrived at the ruined haunted house, the main person leading the way was still Liang Ping.
After all, although Nie Chongyang and Liang Ping were both eyewitnesses to that incident, that was all there was to it.
The extent of their experiences was completely different.
Nie Chongyang was no match for Liang Ping in this regard.
Liang Ping's luck was good at that time, as there were no other people in the tomb. And on the other hand, it was also because Liang Ping quickly met people who provided him with protection.
Of course, the maze they solved in that place was also solved by Liang Ping himself.
Before meeting Ye Tiancheng and Xiao Huli again.
It could be said that Liang Ping had fully occupied the advantage of time, place, and people at that time.
Jealousy was useless.
Even if it were at another time, another opportunity, even if Liang Ping himself were present, he would not have had the chance to leave any other impression on those watching this.
He was truly exasperating.
In any case, Liang Ping was truly helpless.
Liang Ping led Nie Chongyang and Xiao Miaomiao, guiding the way.
Although Nie Chongyang and Xiao Miaomiao later brought a considerable workload to Liang Ping and Ye Tiancheng.
When Nie Chongyang and Xiao Miaomiao reunited with Liang Ping and the others, due to many other matters, they did not have the opportunity to understand the situation in detail at that time.
This was also very unfortunate.
Liang Ping understood this, so he did not feel that there was anything wrong with this.
Liang Ping led Nie Chongyang and Xiao Miaomiao, guiding the way. As more time passed, the changes in some places would become greater. Liang Ping wanted to find the original exit by comparing it with his memory, which was clearly not an easy task.
Fortunately, Liang Ping had indeed walked through it himself, so there was a basis for finding it.
Moreover, the cellar was in that location and would not grow legs and run away. As long as the direction was remembered correctly, the place could always be found, and there was no need for anyone to worry so much.
