Ding Mu didn't know that an "old friend" had already paid attention to him.

He was far behind the carriage.

Cleion was a very intelligent man, and as a businessman who dealt with churches a lot, he knew that many people knew about his relationship with Alfonso.

So he didn't deliberately hide his whereabouts from the beginning, but swaggered into the Monreale Cathedral full of all kinds of goods completely according to his usual habits, and even stopped very casually on the way to say hello to Ding Mu, who happened to pass by, and chatted a few words.

All this seems to prove that this ordinary businessman has nothing to do with the disappearance of Bishop Malejo that has just happened.

If it were someone else, these small tricks of Krian would have successfully served him as a cover-up, but unfortunately, he met Ding Mu.

Klean didn't know that Ding Mu knew Kunto, and he didn't know that because of a pair of short crossbows, Ding Mu had already seen through Alfonso and the assassination of Gomez, so when the news of Malejo's disappearance came out, Ding Mu's first thought was the carriage that Clarion had seen when he deliberately stopped to say hello.

The carriage was large enough to fit a man, and the only carriage that could quietly transport Malejo out of the castle and then take a large living man away from Monreale.

Ding Mu followed the carriage all the way into the city of Palermo, and watched the carriage slowly move in the direction of the Cathedral of the Assumption, and he remembered the documents he had studied with Michelangelo before.

Michelangelo may have been a bit short-tempered and petty, but that doesn't detract from the fact that he was extraordinarily talented.

While Timmu was still searching for clues that had been hidden in his memory, Michelangelo had gradually straightened out some of the seemingly intricacies based on the remaining manuscripts and the buildings of the city of Palermo today.

Even some of the clues that Ding Mu gradually confirmed later were gradually confirmed under his inspiration.

This made Ding Mu have to admit that a master is a master, although he always thought about the use of those gold and eju in the future, but even so, Michelangelo finally helped Ding Mu gradually sort out some things that were important to them.

As he approached the cathedral, the carriage suddenly turned into a narrow street, which Ding Mu did not remember seeing, but through the gap in the cluttered roof, he saw the dome of a strange-looking tower in the distance, and after a moment's thought, he could guess what direction he was going.

Sure enough, as the noise became more and more noisy, as soon as he walked out of the intersection, Ding Mu found himself standing in the noisy and chaotic street of the Malaro market.

The Mararo Market is one of the oldest and most lively markets in Palermo, and the people of Palermo like to buy and sell on this street, setting up cloth tents and setting up stalls, filling the market with all kinds of goods, and then starting to shout loudly and haggle with the guests, a style that no one knows when it gradually took shape and even continued into the next few hundred years, so that the Mararo Market became a major feature of the city of Palermo.

Although the scale of the Mararo market is not comparable to that of the later ones, it has begun to take shape, and the bustling crowds crowd the streets tightly, but it is convenient for Ding Mu, who unhurriedly followed the carriage far behind, passed by an old fisherman who had just arrived in Palermo, and slowly walked towards the typical Saracen monastery.

Located in the alleys far from the corner of the Mararo market, the monastery is old and remote, and it is difficult to find its presence in this mix of Norman and Saracen styles without a closer look.

The towers of the abbey were typical of the arabesque domes, but the low battlements around the towers were distinctly Norman, which reaffirmed his previous suspicions, and recalling the missing manuscripts in Michelangelo's hand, he had determined that the book that Fischer had taken was about the architecture of the city during the Norman period.

But are they really looking for "that place"?

Although he knew that things were likely to be as he had guessed, Ding Mu still felt a little incredible, but when he saw the carriage first stop at the gate of the monastery, and then after Clarion led a few people to carry a huge wicker basket in, Ding Mu stood on the side of the road and stopped, and finally shook his head and turned to leave.

Ding Mu didn't want to mix up with the academy, he knew that this place was not big and there was no way to hide at all, and it was easy for Krian to find out.

He didn't think that Clion would believe that he had come here by chance, and that it would be dangerous if his whereabouts were revealed, especially since considering the reason why this monastery was famous in later generations, Ding Mu felt that there was no need to take that risk.

And although the disappearance of Malejo is a big deal, it is actually nothing to many people.

From the moment he was torn off his bed by the Aragonese soldiers, Maleccio had become a tragic figure through and through, and even if the Romans had not yet issued an order to revoke his clergy, it didn't matter.

What really deserves attention about Maleggio is not that he is the bishop of Palermo, but that he has another status, which comes from the support of the Holy See and his connections as a Roman nobleman.

By this time, Ding Mu had almost figured out the general ins and outs of the matter, although some things might not be clear, but he felt that it was not too important.

For Alfonso, Malecho is a threat after all, although the bishop is now not only ruined but also imprisoned, but in addition to the vestments on his body, Malejo still has a deep relationship with Rome in the Holy See, especially because it is said that this bishop has some common hobbies with the current Pope Alexander VI, although he was not promoted to the Archbishop of Sicily because of his bad reputation, but he still has the trust of Alexander VI.

Of course, Ding Mu knew that these rumors were not reliable, and Alexander VI could not blindly trust this person just because he had a kindred spirit, perhaps the real key was that Malejo's personal identity made the Pope look at him differently, which is why Alfonso was still uneasy even if he was imprisoned.

But why is it the monastery, Ding Mu looked back at the dome of the monastery looming on a piece of houses.

This monastery is the same city recorded in the book that Fischer borrowed, and it was built when the Normans ruled Sicily, Ding Mu does not think that these two events are a coincidence, and more importantly, Ding Mu also knows a secret that most people in this era may not know - under this humble abbey, there is a huge and formidable catacomb!

It wasn't until many years later, when people walked into the catacombs, they were still terrified by the eerie scenes they saw, and Ding Mu couldn't imagine what it was like now.

Thinking of the tomb, Ding Mu paused slightly, at this time, the people of Palermo would never have thought that in the depths of this noisy street where people come and go, there is a huge tomb labyrinth lying quietly underground, the labyrinth is deep and long, in this underground world that is forever dominated by darkness, there are thousands of dried corpse bones.

Is this the place Ficher is looking for? Ding Mu pondered to himself.

If Fisché was a scholar who was completely immersed in scholarship, he believed that he might have been fascinated by the wonder of the tomb because he had heard of it somewhere, but the thought that he was also the brainchild of the Duke of Orleans made him think otherwise.

Now that Alfonso is actually related to this incident, it is even more difficult for Ding Mu to believe that Ficher is out of love for academics.

However, these things have nothing to do with him for the time being, Ding Mu is concerned about Gomez's promise, although he has Osborne to take care of him, but Ding Mu is still a little worried about Sophia's situation, he wants to see Sophia as soon as possible, and Malejo's whereabouts are obviously a good bargaining chip.

Ding Mu walked back along the Mararo market, thinking that while telling Osborne about Olejo's whereabouts, he would also take the opportunity to find out something about Molodi from Osborne.

Because Molodi's identity has always been a mystery, when he didn't know what the consequences of using this identity would bring, Ding Mu didn't dare to use it rashly.

Although Kunto asked him to go to the priest before he died, Ding Mu did not dare to take this risk easily.

To make matters worse, without waiting for him to reveal his temptation to Alfonso, Gomez's sudden attack forced him to make a desperate bet.

It's just that Osborne's slightly ambiguous attitude gradually made Ding Mu have some guesses, and also made him decide to find out what kind of secret Modillo's identity is behind as soon as possible.

A lively shout came from the slightly open place in front, Ding Mu saw the gypsies performing from the crowd, and saw that the old Gurga was still sparing no effort to shout, Ding Mu passed through the crowd and prepared to leave.

"Gajer!" Shaskina suddenly squeezed out of the crowd, she was still clutching a velvet bag in her hand, it should have been from the residents who were watching the excitement, she struggled to squeeze to Ding Mu's side, and looked at him with angry eyes, "Do you know that Sophia has been captured? ”

"I've already met her," Ding Mu nodded helplessly, "I'm sorry Shaskina, but I'm trying to find a way to save her." ”

"She's taken away because of you, but you're swaggering shopping, and Sophia is in jail, she's still a child!" Shaskina angrily pushed Ding Mu, "I really should let Nashan see you like this, I swear if he knows it, he will never spare you." ”

Ding Mu had a headache, he knew that what Shaskina said was right, although he hadn't seen the "father-in-law" yet, but just think about how much he loved Sophia at the expense of violating the clan rules in order to save his daughter, if Nashan knew that he caused Sophia to become a hostage, probably he might not be able to spare him as Shaskina said.

"I won't leave Sophia alone," Ding Mu explained, and when he saw that there were already people around him paying attention to them, he lowered his voice and said, "Listen, if everything goes well, I can rescue Sophia in a short time, and then I will take her away, and you can rest assured that I will never leave her alone." ”

"I hope you tell the truth," muttered Shaskina indignantly, "because of you and our lives are not having an easy time now, for we were almost kicked out of the city, and if it weren't for our help, we would have had to leave Palermo now." ”

"I'm sorry about that, it's really my fault." Ding Mu smiled apologetically, although he didn't have a good impression of old Gurga, these gypsies treated him well.

"Of course it's your fault," Shaskina continued, disgustedly, "but thankfully the Gajs we met on the last road asked us to stay. ”

Xiaskina's words made Ding Mu stunned, and he thought for a moment and asked, "The Gajie people you said last time won't be the ones we met on the road." ”

"That's them," Shaskina nodded, "even though they came to us and told us that they wanted us to perform, I happened to recognize one of them." ”

"They told you to stay, just for the show?" Ding Mu asked strangely, he thought that the Duke of Orleans should not have a penchant for watching gypsy performances.

"Yes, they let us perform here until ......," Shaskina scratched her hair and thought about "what Santa Rosaria's anniversary." ”

Ding Mu's heart moved, he knew that Santa Rosaria was the patron saint of Sicily, and her remembrance was celebrated on the first Sunday of May every year.

But it doesn't matter, it's important, it's the day of the election of the Bishop of Palermo by the Bishops' Conference of Sicily!

Looking back at the dome of the monastery, Ding Mu involuntarily paused on the ground again.
