"I heard a fight in the yard."
Si Niannian listened carefully again and found that the sound disappeared.
Mr. Si smiled and said, "Oh, it's grandpa and your second uncle who are competing. Grandpa has been sitting in a wheelchair for so many years, and his hands are itchy. No, finally your second uncle is free tonight, so he took him to accompany him. I’ll take a few tricks.”
Si Xiyou also nodded, "Yes."
"Oh, so that's it." Si Niannian had no doubt in his grandfather's words, "Then who won, grandfather or second uncle?"
"Of course grandpa won." Mr. Si said.
"Grandpa is awesome."
"Well, be good, grandpa will take you back to your room to sleep."
Mr. Si sent his granddaughter back to her room, watched her fall asleep, and then left the room quietly.
As soon as the door closed, his expression darkened instantly.
Si Xiyou was still standing in the corridor, "Dad, could what happened tonight be related to the recent incidents in the company?"
Mr. Si waved his hand, glanced behind him, and then pointed in the direction of the study.
Si Xiyou understood, nodded, and went to the study room with Mr. Si.
"Those two people have at least a golden elixir cultivation level, and they both have detectors in their hands. They are obviously fully prepared to avoid all agencies and security systems. Why did they keep wandering around the yard when we went out, as if Like being trapped?"
This is what Mr. Si is most puzzled about.
Si Xiyou stood by the window. The window of the study room faced the backyard, and he could just see the place where they had just fought with the two intruders.
"Dad, do you think their situation is as if they have entered a maze and can't find the way out, so they are wandering around like flies?"
His eyes swept around the yard, and he discovered many details with careful attention.
The stone table and chairs seemed to have been moved.
There is an unnamed flower on the four corners of the courtyard wall, which blooms more beautifully at night.
And the medicinal herbs planted by Xiao Nian Nian...
Mr. Si thought for a moment following Si Xiyou's words, and frowned slightly, "You mean... the maze array? How is this possible? There are very few people in the world who understand the array, so it is impossible for anyone in our family to understand it."
"Dad, come here and take a look."
Mr. Si walked over and followed Si Xiyou's line of sight and looked out the window, "What?"
Si Xiyou took out the remote control and turned on a few lights in the courtyard to provide more light, and then pointed in the direction of the medicinal field.
It turns out that when viewed from a high place, the originally chaotic herbs actually took on the shape of a Tai Chi.
"Before, we were always looking at each other in the backyard, and because we didn't pay too much attention to the herbs planted by Xiao Nian Nian, we didn't notice it until now."
Si Xiyou was shocked, and so was Mr. Si.
"You mean, Xiao Nian Nian understands formations?" Mr. Si looked at the medicinal field below with a look of disbelief.
Si Xiyou nodded, "Niannian grew up in a Taoist temple. Judging from the gifts she gave us the day she first came back, the Taoist temple must have been an unusual place. Her master was probably a reclusive master. Although little Niannian is only six years old, she knows a lot, all thanks to her master."
"Dad, don't forget, we rarely come to the backyard on weekdays. Only little Niannian comes to take care of the herbs every day."
"I'll ask her..." Mr. Si, who had just stood up, sat down again, "No, little Niannian just fell asleep. Don't wake her up."
Si Xiyou looked at the medicinal field for a while, and suddenly remembered a detail, "Dad, the day Xiao Niannian brought these medicinal herbs back, was it Chen Su who helped her plant them?"
Niannian: Grandpa is awesome.
Bu Shao: What about me
Niannian: Brother Su is the best!
Mr. Si:…
