Zen Strange Records

Chapter 214 Analysis and Clues

As the saying goes, plans can't keep up with changes. Just when Ye Xiaosan sent off Mu Tianling and Wu Erdan's masters and apprentices, and was about to leave Nanhuai City with Su Ying, something unexpected happened suddenly. Disrupted the original plan.

"I understand the truth, but what is it?" Ye Xiaosan twitched the corner of his mouth, looking at the scroll spread out in the girl's hand. It was a special bamboo slip called the Shanhai Palace Limited Commemoration, which he naturally knew , because when the girl snatched the sheep and took the bamboo slips, he was by her side, but at this moment, seeing the content on the bamboo slips, Ye Xiaosan couldn't keep calm.

"I'm surprised, I just discovered it accidentally." Su Ying shrugged her shoulders with a calm look. However, only those who know her best will see that her mood is not calm at this moment.

There is only one reason for the other two people to be so restless, and that is a map drawn with a carving knife on the bamboo slips. Well, that's just an ordinary map, but what's special about it is that in the middle of the canyon, there are actually three large characters of Zangzhen Palace engraved on it!

"Could it be that the people from Shanhai Palace have already discovered the Cangzhen Palace?" Ye Xiaosan muttered uncertainly. If the situation is really as bad as he thought, wouldn't it be very difficult for him and others to work hard to collect the secrets of mountains and rivers? stupid?
The girl shook her head when she heard this: "I don't think so. This bamboo slip is a commemorative book for the [-]th anniversary of Shanhai Palace. That happened many years ago. If Zangzhen Palace had been found at that time, Shanhai The palace will not remain so peaceful."

Indeed, as the girl said, although it is not known what method Shanhai Palace used to draw this map, the real location of Cangzhen Palace should not be determined yet.

When he was thinking hard, Su Ying suddenly took out the complete book of mountains and rivers: "And you see, this map is completely different from ours, and this is also a puzzling place."

Ye Xiaosan glanced at the Secret Book of Mountains and Rivers. Indeed, the map drawn on the Book of Mountains and Rivers shows two symmetrical mountains with a spring flowing down from top to bottom between the mountains. It has no similarity to the canyon on this map: "In this way, this map may be fake? After all, so many volumes have been sold, if it is real, it is not realistic."

However, the girl decisively vetoed Ye Xiaosan's guess: "That's not the case. The Shanhai Palace produced a limited edition of 100 volumes. As far as I know, each volume is different. It records and depicts 100 unique world-wide scenery. And I don't think it is necessary for the people of Shanhai Palace to keep the only fake map in their hands grandly."

What the girl said naturally had some truth, but in this way, Ye Xiaosan scratched his head: "Then according to what you said, it is impossible that the secrets of mountains and rivers we collected are fake?"

"How is that possible!" The girl didn't want to believe this hypothesis. She looked over the map in her hand several times, and finally put her hand down in vain: "I don't know, but it seems that the key is the bamboo slips that the mysterious person you mentioned took away. What should we do? Should we try to find some clues here before leaving?"

Although this sentence is an inquiry, both parties know that with the purpose of finding the Tibetan Palace, the two have no choice at all. Ye Xiaosan sighed and nodded immediately: "That's the only way to do it, things have priorities. , since we happen to be here, let's finish the trouble at hand first."

After that, Su Ying looked at the bamboo slips and the map in her hand, thought for a while, and threw the map over. Ye Xiaosan subconsciously caught it without knowing why. At this time, the girl said: "I'll leave this to you for safekeeping. After all, the current situation is complicated, and in order to ensure that one mistake will not lead to eternal hatred, we will keep it alone."

Although he understood the girl's estimation, Ye Xiaosan was a little dissatisfied with it. He didn't believe that with the girl's cultivation, she would encounter something dangerous. As soon as this idea came up, what happened to Asela who had just moved in? He was stunned: "You are young. It is because you are so young that you have suffered defeat in the hands of people who are weaker than you several times. If it were not for the female orangutan and the others, you would have died countless times."

Ye Xiaosan was ashamed, but he didn't take these words to heart, and then Su Ying explained a few more words, and the two separated, and hurriedly ate some vegetarian food in the inn, Ye Xiaosan was itchy, and finally left In the inn, although it is not ruled out that he will meet Bortie's group and expose his identity, but if he just stays in the inn obediently waiting for the girl's news, it will be a bit tormenting, so it is better to act first.

On the bustling streets, you can see that secret map of mountains and rivers that is difficult to distinguish between authenticity and falsehood. While walking, Ye Xiaosan secretly pays attention, observing everyone's expressions and reactions.

After walking like this for an unknown amount of time, a figure suddenly appeared in Ye Xiaosan's peripheral vision and immediately attracted his attention. This person was neither a beautiful girl nor a martial arts expert, but just an ordinary beggar that can be seen everywhere on the street. He looks about in his 20s, not much different from Wu Erdan. In his hand, he holds a map that can be seen as a fake.

If that's all, it's impossible for this person to attract Ye Xiaosan's attention. The key point is that this person's expression is too cautious. It is obviously an ordinary map, but he is afraid of being noticed by others. He holds it quietly in his hand and looks around from time to time. waiting for someone.

Ye Xiaosan's heart skipped a beat, pretending to be inadvertent, he flashed into the alley next door, then poked his head out, quietly monitoring the other party's movements.

Less than half a stick of incense had passed, and when the beggar was sweating on his forehead and gradually showing an impatient expression, a man in black suddenly flashed past his eyes. The beggar's expression changed, and he looked sneaky again. After taking a look around to make sure no one was paying attention, he followed quietly.

We even hit a clue!Ye Xiaosan's heart was filled with excitement, it was absolutely impossible to say that the beggar was innocent, maybe he could really get some news.

Thinking this way in his heart, Ye Xiaosan used the sword Aoyou movement technique, leaped onto the eaves, and followed cautiously. Soon, he found the shadow of the two of them stopped in the back street among.

At this time, the man in black lifted his black robe, revealing a low and wretched face. The wretched man glanced at the beggar who was following him, and asked in a low voice, "How are you, did you bring everything?"

"Hey, look at what you said, the small one is brought naturally." With a humble smile, the beggar handed over the map he was clutching in his hand, and the wretched man immediately opened it, and Ye Xiaosan poked his head out with great effort , but found that the map was the same as the ones sold on the street, and couldn't help but feel disappointed, and was about to turn around and leave, but suddenly heard the wretched man continue to ask: "It is indeed the same. In this way, your news is also true. of?"
