Treasure identifying Golden Finger

The father and son had given him a big problem. Thinking from his own point of view, if the Old Patriarch's death really had something to do with the Young Master and the Old Madam, then he naturally hoped that Faang Cheng would be able to reveal the true intentions of the mother and son. But... Young Master was the son of the old patriarch after all. If he really helped Faang Cheng expose Young Master's true colors, would the old patriarch in the underworld blame him?!    

"I..."    

Steward Hu was having a hard time making a decision!    

"You must know Old Patriarch Hu very well, right? Then think of Hu's character. If he had survived, if he had discovered that it was his son and his wife who had tried to kill him, what would have become of him?"    

Faang Cheng looked at Butler Hu tentatively.    

Hearing Faang Cheng's words, Butler Hu could not help but be slightly taken aback. He then raised his head and looked at Faang Cheng. His attention was momentarily distracted, as if Faang Cheng's words had given him some inspiration, and he began to wonder what kind of personality Old Patriarch Hu had. If he was here, what would he do?    

"Because Old Patriarch Hu is about to be buried! So we don't have much time for you to think about it. If you don't want to help us, then we'll have to go in and tell Young Master Hu about our suspicions. It concerns some things about me, so I have to find out why Old Master Hu passed away!"    

Faang Cheng said as he stood up.    

"However, if you are willing to help us, we won't immediately fall out with you. Instead, we can just investigate you in secret! If this matter really has nothing to do with Young Master Hu, then we don't need to alarm him! However, if you don't want to help us, then we can only ask Young Master Hu himself! When the time comes, no matter if the death of the Old Patriarch Hu is related to Young Master Hu or not, I'm afraid there will be a lot of gossip!"    

Faang Cheng was speaking the truth!    

Butler Hu, on the other hand, understood the situation. He did not say anything, obviously thinking about Faang Cheng's opinion.    

"Then we'll be leaving first! You probably have..."    

Faang Cheng roughly calculated the distance between the tea house and the entrance of the Hu Family and smiled.    

"We'll have to think about this matter from about a hundred and fifty meters away. Once we enter the Hu Family Compound, we'll have no choice but to explain this matter to the public!"    

With that, Faang Cheng no longer waited for Butler Hu. Instead, he strode towards the main gate of the Hu Family Mansion without any hesitation.    

"Do you think... he will agree to help us?"    

Yu Yien caught up to Faang Cheng and whispered into his ear.    

"I think he will! This Young Master Hu he was talking about was an ignorant, useless brat. If Steward Hu didn't want the Hu family to wither away, he would think about my suggestion. Although... the time he took to think about it seemed to be a bit short. It was only the distance from here to the entrance of the Hu family! Butler Hu needs to come up with an answer quickly!"    

Faang Cheng smiled and looked in the direction of Butler Hu with ill intentions. After that, he continued to walk towards the entrance of the Hu Family. Faang Cheng had always been a calm and collected person. No matter what happened, he would always remain calm and collected. As a result, his calm and collected personality would naturally give others some pressure! Especially when confronting him or forcing him to make a decision, Faang Cheng's personality would often make people calm and steady, but at the same time, it would also make his opponents go crazy. They would feel extremely inferior and have no chance of winning!    

Sure enough, just as Faang Cheng and Yu Yien were walking towards the Hu Family Mansion with their heads held high and their chests puffed out, Butler Hu's voice suddenly sounded from behind them.    

"Young... Young Master Fang!"    

As the voice sounded, the sound of panicked footsteps could be heard from behind the house.    

Faang Cheng did not immediately stop at the first moment. Instead, he took a few more steps forward and heard Butler Hu calling out to him from behind. Only then did he slowly come to a stop. He turned around and looked at Butler Hu behind him. At this moment, he and Yu Yien were only a few dozen steps away from the main gate of the Hu Family Mansion!    

"Young Master Fang, let me help you!"    

Butler Hu staggered in front of Faang Cheng and Yu Yien and said to them with a defeated expression. He was obviously nervous. If the Young Master of the Hu Family had not killed his father and stolen his wealth, everything would have been fine. At most, he was unfilial and greedy; but if the death of Old Master Hu was really suspicious and the evidence pointed to Young Master Hu, Butler Hu really didn't know what to do! He was the only son and heir of the Hu family. If he really committed such a heinous crime, what should he do?    

"Alright!"    

Faang Cheng did not say anything else and only nodded in agreement. Looking at Butler Hu's soulless appearance, he could only shake his head helplessly and give him a calming pill.    

"Your Young Master seems to have a screw loose in his head. I don't think he would really kill his own father. He doesn't have the guts or the ability, but... people like him are easy to use. It's possible for him to use his own identity to cover up for others and make things convenient for them! So... the worst case scenario is not as bad as you think. Don't scare yourself! Don't worry. With Old Master Hu's upright personality, he won't blame you. When the truth came out, if it wasn't Young Master Hu who did the best, but if he had something to do with it, the worst thing would be to drag him down from the position of the head of the Hu family and give him some money to live a dull life! Maybe... This kind of life is most suitable for Young Master Hu. The soul of Old Master Hu will probably have to thank you! "    

Faang Cheng comforted Butler Hu's heart.    

When Butler Hu heard Faang Cheng's words, his eyes widened in shock. After carefully considering the meaning behind Faang Cheng's words, he could not help but nod his head in agreement.    

"Alright, I understand! Then, Young Master Fang, Young Master Yu, please follow me this way!"    

Butler Hu nodded and led Faang Cheng and Yu Yien to another path.    

This was not the way to the main entrance of the Hu residence, but Faang Cheng and Yu Yien still followed Butler Hu's footsteps obediently. They knew that Butler Hu had been the butler of the Hu family for so many years that he naturally had some tricks that others did not know about and was only loyal to his followers. There were many ways to enter the Hu family without attracting Young Master Hu's attention.    

At the back wall of the Hu Family courtyard, there was a nondescript back door!    

It wasn't really a back door, because the back door was for people to go through, and this door - it was a passage for vegetables, melons, firewood, and coal, and it was often used only by the people in charge of the kitchen. However, as the steward of the Hu Clan, Steward Hu naturally knew about this door!    

Then, with great dexterity, Steward Hu plucked a piece of wire from a gap in the wall beside the door, which was not very thick, and, leaning his head against the crack of the door, inserted the wire into the lock.    

Steward Hu looked at the door he had opened and exhaled slightly. Then, he placed the wire back into the gap between the bricks on the side of the wall. Only then did he turn to Faang Cheng and Yu Yien, indicating that they could enter from here.    

"Butler Hu is indeed the butler of the Hu Family. Nothing in this courtyard can be hidden from you!"    

Yu Yien nodded with a smile.    

"Sigh, I've been working in the Hu family for almost two hundred years! I have changed my house once during this period of time. However, if I say that I am the second most familiar with each of the Hu Clans, no one would dare to say that they are the first. Even the old master of the Hu Clan is not as familiar with this house as I am! Because I am maintaining this place all the time. I am the one who decides where it should be renovated and where it should be furnished. So I am the one who knows the Hu Clan the best! "    

As Steward Hu explained to Faang Cheng and the others, he pushed open the small door and walked in!    

The backyard was completely silent, not a single person could be seen! Beside the small courtyard was a tall pile of firewood. Beside the pile of firewood was a pile of black coal that had already been burnt for warmth! After all, this was a valuable item that ordinary families could not afford to use. It was only after Faang Cheng came to the Myriad God Realm and suggested it to the people that they found out that it could be burned. Thus, they decided to use it to keep themselves warm or to do work that required a fire source for a long period of time!    

"Normally, no one would come to this desolate backyard! Unless it was a fixed day to transport vegetables and firewood, or if the servants and maids in the front yard wanted to be lazy, they would come here and hide for a while! I know all of these things, but I usually won't criticize them. After all, they are all human beings. They need to breathe a little bit of air from time to time, so I don't usually care about those things that aren't too exaggerated! "    

As Steward Hu finished speaking, the three people in the yard heard two voices coming from the door that connected the yard and the front yard.    

"There are people!"    

Yu Yien said very cautiously, and as he spoke, he looked like he was about to attack!    

"Don't be nervous, don't attack! They... they were servants of the Hu household, they used to be my men, they were close to me, I think... they won't make things difficult for us... "    

As soon as Steward Hu finished speaking, two young men in servant clothes walked in from the small door of the small courtyard.
