Chapter 43: Chang'an City
Dali Temple
"My lord, you are the commander of the security guard, responsible for the security management and peace and stability of the whole city, why does Her Majesty the Empress still appoint you to be responsible for the supply of grain and grass for the army in the west?" Li Yuanfang asked curiously.
"Hehe, Your Majesty rarely appoints me to foreign assignments, if I guess correctly this time, it should be the secret of the national teacher. The first time I deliver the grain and grass, I will personally escort it, and then I will lie that I am sick, and then you will take over the rest of the time. The national teacher's plan is strange and unpredictable, and I have to be cautious step by step, I must not leave Chang'an City for a long time! Di Renjie said.
Chang'an Secret Palace
"Master, I haven't seen you for a long time, and you've always been fine?" Zhong Kui said.
In fact, few people know that Zhong Kui is a closed disciple of Master Mozi, and Master Mozi came to Chang'an this time because he had a premonition that the King Continent was shrouded in ominous signs.
Under the ground of Chang'an City, it is where the cornerstone of the city is located, the framework of the entire cornerstone is the skeleton of the ark that the ancestors drove from the earth at the beginning, and the secret palace is built to protect the core energy source of the ark, Zhong Kui lives in the secret palace, since Master Mozi has learned from it, he has been guarding the secret palace day and night all year round, and the secret nature of the secret palace is also very few people know, the so-called wreckage of the place of origin is actually the outer shell of the original ark left behind.
Zhong Kui was both happy and surprised when he saw the sudden visit of his former teacher.
"Hehe, yes, this farewell is ten years. The importance of this secret palace, I don't need to say more, the teacher trusted you at the beginning, and you will be given to protect it, the teacher is already old, and the secret palace is now guarded by you so secretly and well, and the teacher's heart is very comforted. The reason why I came here this time is because there have been many bizarre things recently, some people are not only coveting the wreckage of the ark, but also always inquiring about the whereabouts of the Book of Heaven, so I am worried that the relative stability that this king continent has finally obtained will be shaken by these people with ill intentions. This is the Book of Heaven, I will also hand it over to you to guard, it is no longer safe to continue to put it in Jixia Academy, put it here to you, I can rest assured, the Book of Heaven contains the secrets and knowledge of the world, do not read it privately, remember, remember! Mozi spoke eloquently.
Zhong Kui took the book of heaven and gently covered it in his arms.
"So many things have happened recently, it seems that this coveted person also knows a lot of secrets that we have worked hard to protect, master, you have to find out the ins and outs of these things outside, otherwise my secret palace may not be hidden for long." I will treasure this book for you for the time being, and I will never read it privately. Zhong Kui said.
"I have received a letter from Zhuang Zhou, which mentions that the poachers who directly carried out the theft are Yan Prince Dan and Wei Guo's Ah Ke, but in my experience, there should be another mastermind behind them." Master Mozi said.
"Oh, who's that mastermind?" Zhong Kui said.
"I don't know either, so I sent letters to the old master who had been traveling for a long time, and these letters mentioned it, and I believe that it won't be long before things will come to an eye." Master Mozi said.
"Hehe, I didn't expect Master Master to be so fond of traveling." Zhong Kui said.
"Although he is traveling on the surface, he is actually looking for the whereabouts of another book of heaven." Master Mozi said.
"Oh! Isn't the Book of Heaven just one in my arms, is there another one? Zhong Kui asked.
"There are two parts of the Book of Heaven, the upper part is handed over to you, and the lower part is in the place of origin, which was lost during the war between the human race and the demons, and it may have been stolen by the demons, or it may have been lost among the people."
Another book of heaven, in fact, has long been no longer on the continent of kings in the East, when another book of heaven was scattered among the people, on the black market, Marco Polo's father, paid a considerable amount of money to buy it, and then was taken to the land of warriors in the West.
