"I also asked grandpa why he didn't let others in, but grandpa just smiled and didn't tell me the reason."

Li Shiyun had many questions about this matter.

It’s such a simple study, why don’t outsiders be allowed in?

But whenever she asked, Mr. Li would have a gloomy face. Over time, Li Shiyun stopped doing things that made the old man angry.

When saying this, Li Shiyun did not notice Ye Yuan's strange expression.

The reason why Ye Yuan has this expression.

It's because I just realized that there is a tunnel behind this bookshelf.

The corridor leads diagonally downward. As for what is at the end of the corridor, Ye Yuan's perception cannot detect it.

After all, this is on land, and the distance Ye Yuan can perceive is very limited.

However, judging from the scale of the corridor, the distance of this corridor will not be too short.

The corridor leads to the back, and Ye Yuan can see through the window that behind this house is a peach mountain full of peach trees.

The peach trees all over the mountain look very beautiful.

Each peach tree is covered with fist-sized peaches, which look so pink, tender and fragrant.

"Your second uncle planted all the peach trees in the back hill?"

Ye Yuan remembered it clearly.

Mr. Li just said it.

Li Shiyun's second uncle went to the Taolin at the back.

According to Mr. Li, the peach grove on the back mountain should be contracted by the Li family, right?

When Li Shiyun heard Ye Yuan ask this question, she curled her lips and said:

"Yes, I don't know what my second uncle thinks.

A very good student of archeology at Huaqing University.

As a result, after I graduated, I went to plant peach trees on this barren mountain."

The speaker is unintentional, but the listener is intentional. When Ye Yuan heard Li Shiyun say this, Ye Yuan had a little bit of calculation in his heart.

"Your second uncle has been contracting this mountain for a long time?"

"I don't remember. Anyway, he has been planting peach trees here since I can remember."

It can be seen that it is not only Mr. Li who does not want to mention his useless second son.

Even Li Shiyun doesn't like to mention his second uncle.

Out of curiosity and speculation about his thoughts, Ye Yuan still said:

"Let's go to the back mountain and have a look?

This study is just like this, except for a few paintings on the wall, it's not as good as the one on my island!"

The two people walked along the stone steps in the backyard towards the back mountain.

While walking, Li Shiyun was still like a child, occasionally picking wild flowers on the side and playing with them in her hands.

At first, Ye Yuan could still sense the location of the corridor in Mr. Li's study.

But as they gradually walked halfway up the mountain, the corridor was beyond the range of Ye Yuan's perception and could no longer be sensed.

Originally, Ye Yuan wanted to use the excuse of mountain climbing to see where the mysterious tunnel behind Mr. Li's bookshelf led to.

If there is a darkroom in a study, a secret door or something like that is also very common.

After all, many people keep some valuable things at home.

It is normal to build some places to hide treasures in order to avoid being discovered by others.

But it’s rare to see someone like Mr. Li dig a tunnel behind a bookshelf, right?

Ye Yuan really seemed to know what kind of secrets were hidden behind the corridor of the Li family.

At first, Ye Yuan said he wanted to go for a walk in the back mountains, just to test Li Shiyun's excuse.

He didn't believe that Li Shiyun didn't know the secret behind the bookshelf.

But after a simple conversation with Li Shiyun.

He discovered that Li Shiyun's expression and some of her speech and behavior revealed information.

My girlfriend really doesn't know that such a tunnel exists in her own home.

I believe that if Li Shiyun knew about the corridor, he would not have led her to the old man's study so easily.

Before the two people reached the top of the mountain, they saw a person walking quickly from the depths of the peach forest.

This man probably looks about forty years old.

With thick eyebrows and big eyes, he is somewhat similar to Li Shiyun's father.

Wearing dark blue overalls.

"Why are you here, Xiaoyun? Don't you like going up the mountain the most?"

The middle-aged man came over and said with a smile.

Although he was talking to Li Shiyun, his vigilant eyes never moved away from Ye Yuan.

"Second uncle! This is my boyfriend Ye Yuan, we are here to see grandpa today!"

Although Li Shiyun is not very close to this second uncle.

But after all, he is his elder, so he still needs to show due respect when meeting him.

"You're a good young man, but you have to treat our family's poetry a little better in the future, otherwise I, the second uncle, won't let you go."

Li Shiyun's second uncle looked like he was joking with Ye Yuan.

She also seems to care about Li Shiyun, her niece.

But Ye Yuan could clearly feel that when he was talking, his heartbeat was faster than before.

However, Ye Yuan still said politely:

"Hello, second uncle!"

"Well, good!"

It could be seen that Li Shiyun's second uncle didn't want to say anything more to Ye Yuan. He turned his head to Li Shiyun and said:

"It's such a hot day and you don't even want to bring your boyfriend inside to cool down.

What are you doing running up this mountain?

I remember, aren't you most afraid of snakes?

There are a lot of those things on this mountain, so don’t run around if you have nothing to do!”

"Ah! Are there any snakes this season?"

Li Shiyun suddenly panicked when her second uncle said this.

"Haha, okay, I'll accompany you down the mountain. My second uncle is here and I won't let them bully our Xiaoyun!"

Originally, Ye Yuan just wanted to check the end of the corridor, but now that he knew that he couldn't find it on the ground, it didn't matter anymore.

So the two of them followed Uncle Li Shiyun and walked down the mountain together.

"Don't be surprised. My second uncle is such a weirdo. He doesn't like talking to strangers very much."

Ye Yuan smiled and gave Li Shiyun an expression that I didn't care about.

After sending the two of them back to the courtyard at the foot of the mountain.

Only then did Li Shiyun's second uncle change his mind.

Before leaving, I told them that there were snakes on the mountain and told them not to run around on the mountain. If they wanted to take a walk, they could go to the river in front. There were not only two places there, but the scenery was also very good.

Looking at the back of Uncle Li Shiyun walking up the mountain, Ye Yuan asked doubtfully:

"Are there really snakes on this mountain?"

Although Ye Yuan was asking Li Shiyun this question, he knew clearly that he had not seen even a snake hole within the range of his perception.

Somehow, Li Shiyun's second uncle gave Ye Yuan a very mysterious feeling.

"Yes, when I was in high school, I once sneaked up the mountain and saw a two-meter-long snake. I haven't been up there since."

It can be seen that the big snake must have left terrible memories for Li Shiyun.

Didn't you see that when she mentioned that matter now, her face turned a little pale?

"Okay, then where should we go next? This is your grandpa's house!"

Ye Yuan really wanted to know the secrets of the Li family.
