Under the setting sun, Gu Xiaoman walked towards Xu San and said, "Mr. Edogawa, you are finally here."

Gu Xiaoman was dressed very simply today. She looked very dignified in a white cheongsam. The afterglow of the setting sun shone on her body, reflecting a faint halo, adding a touch of grace and beauty to her.

"The train was a bit slow, so I was late. I'm really sorry for keeping Miss Gu waiting for so long."

Xu San clasped his fists and bowed, speaking with a smile.

Gu Xiaoman looked at the sky and said, "It's getting late. Let's get in the car early."

"Yeah!" Xu San nodded and followed Gu Xiaoman into a car.

Miako followed behind and got on the same car.

Afterwards, Gu Xiaoman sat in the driver's seat, and Li Ningyu followed closely behind and sat in the passenger seat.

After getting in the car, Miako found a large gift box on the back seat.

Gu Xiaoman started the car and glanced at the rearview mirror, "Mrs. Miako, that gift box is your birthday present."

"Is it for me?" Miako weighed the gift box and looked at Xu San.

"Just keep it as it's a gift to you, otherwise you'll have to blame yourself for missing this opportunity." Xu San spread his hands and looked at the gift box with curiosity.

The car started and began to drive. Gu Xiaoman turned the steering wheel and said, "Mr. Jianghu, Xiaoman is curious about a question."

"Are you asking me why I chose Qiu Village?"

"Yeah! It's just that this place is a little special."

"I know."

Of course Xu San knew that people had died here, and there were many dead bodies.

In a sense, this place is unlucky, and it can even be said that Qiuzhuang is a haunted house.

The reason why Xu San chose to hold his birthday party here was very simple: he just wanted to come and take a look.

Let's take a look at what this most important scene in "The Sound of Wind" looks like. While the two were talking, Miako had already opened the gift box.

"Ah!" Miako exclaimed, "Ms. Gu, this gift is too valuable!"

Xu San took a quick glance and saw that it was the Tang Sancai horse.

It is indeed quite valuable.

Although it has been repaired, it is still very valuable.

What is Gu Xiaoman's purpose in giving me such a valuable thing?

She already knows my identity. Will she try to pass on some information to me by giving me gifts?

Xu San suppressed his curiosity and did not check the abnormality of the tri-colored horse. Instead, he reminded Miako, "You should pack it up first. The mountain road is bumpy now. If it crashes by accident, we will have nowhere to repair it."

"Oh~ yes~" Upon hearing that, Miako quickly put the tri-colored horse back into the gift box. The gift box was equipped with a bracket and a cushion, so it would not break even if it accidentally fell to the ground.

After a short stretch of mountain road, the convoy entered the hardened road.

The car began to stabilize. Xu San glanced at the ground and asked, "Was this road built by the owner of Qiu Village or by you?"

"It was built by the owner of Qiu Village." said Gu Xiaoman.

The car moved slowly and the sun began to set. Because there were many forests around, the light in the car began to dim.

Then, a Western-style manor appeared before our eyes.

"It's so big!" Xu San praised as Qiu Zhuang approached.

“After we took over, we expanded it a little bit.”

"Is this farm bigger than yours?" Xu San suddenly turned around and asked Lingzi.

Lingzi leaned against the window and looked for a while. "The houses are similar, but the garden in Qiu Village is much larger than ours." (End of this chapter)
