Chapter 149: The Mysterious Man (3)

Chou'er and Ruyi were both happy in their hearts, He Xi thanked the abbot of Huijue, and then got up, Huijue turned around and walked two steps, and suddenly stopped and said: "Since the noble man has some relationship with Mu Wangfu, the old man believes in the nobleman, but the noble man still has to tell others about this matter, so as not to get into trouble." ”

He Xi's heart warmed, she leaned over slightly and saluted, and said, "Thank Abbot for mentioning it." ”

Miaoxin led He Xi all the way to the library, Miaoxin was not very old, but he was mature and steady, and he didn't say anything along the way, and when he arrived at the library, he said to the monk who guarded it, and the monk was very shocked, and he didn't expect the abbot to let a harem concubine enter the library.

I couldn't help but ask Miaoxin a little suspiciously: "I said Miaoxin, did you hear clearly?" ”

Miaoxin nodded solemnly, and there was still childishness in her voice, and said, "Senior Brother Miaohui, don't worry, I listened to what the master said in person, and I can't be wrong." ”

Although the monk named Miaohui was very suspicious, he also let go of his body, opened the door, and let He Xi in.

The news that He Xi entered the library building spread throughout the entire Zhaohua Temple for a while, at that time, Lan Xin was gossiping with Lan Ruo, she peeled the kumquat in her hand, the juice was fragrant, mixed with the sandalwood fragrance burning in the room, which became more and more refreshing.

Lan Ruo just sat on the couch in her regular clothes, looking lazy, without the emperor's days in the harem, not to mention the loneliness, but also revealing a sense of tranquility, and the intrigue between the concubines and concubines was also much better,-for-tat, even Lan Xin could sit down with Lan Ruo calmly, gossiping.

The two chatted with each other, as if the days were about to pass, but not everything could go smoothly, Linglong hurriedly came in from outside and stood aside.

She couldn't stop looking at Lan Xin, Lan Xin knew that she must have something to go back, she put down the kumquat in her hand, took the handkerchief on the side and cleaned her hands, then stood up and said: "Sister, I remember that there is something in my room, so I won't disturb my sister's rest today, my sister will retire first." ”

Lan Ruo glanced at Linglong lightly, but she didn't expose it, waved her hand, and allowed Lan Xin to go down.

Qiao'er brought a bowl of ginseng soup over in time, the ginseng soup was thick, and there was a faint medicinal fragrance, Lan Ruo frowned, brought it over and drank it, Qiao'er took the candied fruit again, Lan Ruo took one in her mouth, and went to the bitterness in her mouth before saying: "Do you know what Linglong is doing?" ”

Qiao'er said: "It is estimated that it is for the affairs of Xicai people, and our people also came back and said that Xi Cairen went to the library today." ”

Lan Ruo's pure gold armor slammed on the table, and she said suspiciously, "What is she doing in the Scripture Building?" ”

Qiao'er shook her head and said: "I don't know for the time being, Xu is there something unsightly, this morning I also heard that Miss Xiao Nai went to her yard in a hurry, and the two of them were locked in the room and didn't know what to say, and finally Concubine Hui interrupted." ”

A gleam flashed in Lan Ruo's eyes, will Xiao Nai go to He Xi, or will he look in a hurry, what is it for? Then today I went to the library building.

"So where is Xiao Nai now?" Lan Ruo asked lightly.

Qiao'er replied softly: "Today, Miss Xiao Nai said that she was not feeling well, and when she came out with Concubine Hui, she went back to her yard." Lan Ruo nodded, and then instructed: "It's okay to pay more attention to Concubine Hui's side, don't let her be stupid and do something wrong." ”

Qiao'er nodded, took the medicine, Lan Ruo was a little drowsy, Qiao'er served Lan Ruo to lie down, and then retreated.

On the other side, He Xi had already taken two maidservants into the library, which was worthy of being a world-famous library, He Xi stood and looked up at it, only to see that the walls were full of bookshelves on the walls twice, with bamboo slips and books, which were clearly organized and lined up one after another.

There are nine floors in the scripture building, the stairs meander up, and several people climb the stairs, and Ruyi said: "Little master, what are you looking for?" ”

"I remembered last night, Gao Yuan once told me before, a hundred years ago, a small country named Gusu, there was an outbreak of plague, the court searched all over the world for famous doctors can not find a solution, and finally a mysterious woman appeared, I don't know what method was used, but it controlled the plague no longer spread, and also cured some people's diseases."

He Xi kept under his feet, and said slowly.

Ruyi originally thought that He Xi knew some clues, but he didn't want to just because of a story that sounded a bit ridiculous, in people's concepts, the plague was impossible to cure, let alone a small country a hundred years ago, and Ruyi, who was originally full of interest, collapsed all of a sudden.

Everyone walked for half an hour before they reached the top floor, and the ninth floor was different from the lower floors, and the space was narrow. Even the air was faintly tinged with a little old musty smell, and the ugly child looked around and found that the books or bamboo slips here were also very worn, as if they had been baptized by time and years, and gradually precipitated the smell of decay.

He Xi raised his face in two directions and said, "What I'm looking for is "Gusu Guozhi", you should be careful when you look for it, don't damage these books." ”

The two of them answered, so they went to look for it, and He Xi also simply rummaged through, and for a while, only slight footsteps and breathing could be heard in the library, and nothing else could be heard.

He Xi looked at the books in front of her, some of the bamboo slips were damaged, and the books were also yellowed and black, obviously some years, she told herself to calm down in order to find a solution.

Time passed minute by minute, but He Xi and the others had no clue, and suddenly, Chou'er was surprised: "Little master, I found it!" ”

He Xi was overjoyed, and hurriedly got up, but he didn't want to get up and move a little faster, his eyes were dark, and he almost fell. She hurriedly held on to the candlestick on the side of the bookshelf, but she didn't want her fingers to press down, and she felt the candlestick loosen, and then she heard the sound of rubbing.

She looked closely, and it turned out to be a mechanism!

Chou'er and Ruyi hurriedly rushed over when they heard the voice, only to see that the originally neat bookshelves were now separated on both sides, faintly revealing the dark grid behind, but before He Xi stepped forward to investigate, he suddenly heard the sound of wind in his ears, and before He Xi could see the person clearly, he heard a sound of the mechanism, and before a few people saw what was in the dark grid, the mechanism was closed.

Standing in front of He Xi was Miao Hui, who had seen it downstairs in the Tibetan Scripture Building before, his face was ugly, and he said faintly with hostility: "The presiding abbot just allowed the nobles to come in and look for the books they need, I don't know if the nobles have found it?" ”

He Xi turned his head to look at the ugly child on the side, and the ugly child stepped forward and handed the "Gusu National Chronicles" he found in his hand to He Xi, and simply flipped through it, it was exactly what he was looking for.

Miao Hui saw He Xi's expression, and said, "Since the noble man has found it, then ask the noble man to go out with the poor monk." ”

He turned sideways and made a gesture of please, obviously already sending off the guest, He Xi also knew that he had accidentally touched the mechanism and annoyed people, so he couldn't say anything, so he followed out.

Until she arrived at the door of the library building, Miao Hui was straight faced, He Xi bowed slightly and said with a half-salute: "The matter of Fang Cai is He Xi's unintention, please forgive Master Miaohui, I will send this "Gusu Guozhi" back after I finish reading it." ”

Miao Hui hummed softly, her attitude was still arrogant.

Ruyi was a little dissatisfied, but when he saw He Xi signaling that he should not do much, he suppressed his anger.

On the way back, Ruyi said: "Little master, we didn't deliberately touch that organ, as for those who speak so coldly to us?" ”

Chou'er said: "You can't say that, they also have their own rules, let us in, it's already an exception, and we found the mechanism, naturally the face is not good, but, it's strange to say, how can there be a dark room in this library?" ”

After speaking, she looked at He Xi, but saw He Xi walking forward without saying a word, I don't know what she was thinking, the ugly child called twice, He Xi woke up, and said strangely: "What did the little master find?" ”

He Xi shook his head and said: "No, I'm just thinking, the matter in Shuzhong, okay, don't talk about this matter anymore, it is already an exception to let us enter the library, and no one is allowed to talk about this matter in the future." ”

After the master and servant left, Miao Hui returned upstairs, carefully turned the mechanism and walked in, He Xi was not mistaken, this was an empty secret room.

It's just that this secret room has a corner, in the blind spot of the line of sight, standing outside is invisible, Miao Hui dodged in from the corner, looked at the person lying in the ice coffin, and the brocade box dragged in the palm of the person's hand, and breathed a sigh of relief.

After Miao Huizai carefully checked that there was nothing suspicious, he walked out, closed the door, and adjusted the position of the organ as if he was not at ease.

After making sure that it was correct, he went out of the scripture building, but all this was seen by a person hidden in the shadows, his eyes were deep, hidden in the darkness like a hunting leopard.

However, he seemed to be very cautious, and waited until Miao Hui left him before he came out of the darkness, looked at the location of the mechanism, and left quietly.

In a grange not far from Zhaohua Temple, a man was sitting upright next to the desk, when suddenly a man in black came in, knelt down respectfully and said, "Lord Wang, we have made a new discovery-"

He Xi returned to the courtyard from the Tibetan Scripture Building, closed the door to thank the guests, locked himself in the house, and studied the "Gusu National Chronicles".

It has been nearly a hundred years since Gusu died, and this book is naturally outdated. Many handwriting has been blurred, and even the pages of the book have begun to be damaged, He Xi carefully rummaged through, this book tells the whole process of the Gusu country from the founding of the country to the fall, and the events during the period are recorded in great detail.

And the text used is also Gusu's text, which is obscure, and He Xi reads very slowly.
