The Garden Maze was taller and denser than it appeared from the outside, with a path wide enough for only two people to walk side by side. The intertwined branches and the thickness of the flower walls, at least two meters, made them impassable with a knife or an axe in a short time.
Moreover, probably because no one had tended to it in a long time, there were snake nests among the shrubbery.
The vast maze was all passageways, and after walking a third of the way, he had not found any signs of digging.
By this point, Xu Huo was certain that those "missing guests" from before were most likely not buried anywhere in the old castle.
There was no point in going any further, so he led the servant back the way they came.
"Has the rain stopped, and is the bridge passable now?" he asked.
"Mr. Xu, do you plan to leave?" the servant asked in surprise. "But the appraisal event isn't until the evening after next."
Xu Huo smiled, "I need to buy some things."
