It's a cold guest again.

Since coming to Chaomen, Qiu Shaohu feels that he has been in a relationship with this person who only appears in his name more than once, and he can't get around his shadow wherever he goes.

Vaguely, Qiu Shaohu even felt that the other party was actually hiding behind him not far from him, observing his every move, watching him use all his strength to find and piece together the clues he threw out at random, and he was like a goat that would only follow.

"And then?" Qiu Shaohu followed up and asked, "Then what's the matter?" ”

"Again? I don't know either. Luan Wen made a bitter face, "I know so much, I really don't know if I have a little more." ”

"Then you came here today because today is the time to meet with that woman?" Qiu Shaohu asked.

"No," Luan Wen said, "I came here on my own initiative." Zheng Ling was arrested, and I was worried that the people in the government would find out about me, so I wanted to come to her to discuss countermeasures, but I couldn't find any trace of her. Before that, she took the initiative to contact me, and whenever she wanted to meet me, there would be other ways to notify me, and the people who came to me were different every time......"

"I see." Qiu Shaohu thought for a while and said, "If you go back now and pretend that nothing happened, the people from the Daotai Yamen will not be able to find your body for a while." From now on, you will be my informant, and the next time the other party is ready to contact you, you will also tell me in advance. ”

"Does that really mean it?" Luan Wen shuddered, "That woman...... Can...... It's scary. ”

"Are you afraid of her, or are you afraid that I will tell your secret, or are you afraid that I will continue to blackmail you?" Qiu Shaohu sneered: "You have been smuggling for so long, and you don't have the courage to do this?" Do what you want, mother-in-law and mother-in-law! ”

Luan Wen was helpless, so he could only bow his head and acquiesce, and then left here in a gloomy manner after listening to Qiu Shaohu's orders.

"Yang Zhai Hanke." Qiu Shaohu thought about it, knowing the news, there was no need to continue to stay here.

And the source to be investigated, he has long been clear.

"Zhirakuzhai." Qiu Shaohu thought of Li Yixuan, from the last time they met, he felt that this young female boss was shrouded in a layer of mystery all over her body.

……

Meng Chen stopped in front of the troupe, watching the spectators who were listening to the play gradually disperse.

The small opera troupe has already sung to the last scene, and it is an old student dressed as a person, appealing on the stage to express his loyal and patriotic feelings.

Meng Chen lives outside the world all the year round, of course, he can't understand what he is singing, and he won't know that the old students on this stage have actually been singing on stage for almost a day in different disguises.

It was here that he took out the preceding book and turned another page.

The preceding book is a guide when necessary, and only if it wants to open it can it turn the corresponding number of pages.

At this time, it was the guidance of the previous book that brought him here.

"Senior brother!" Lao Zhe and the others also rushed here, and it was also because of the guidance of their respective preceding books that they met here after searching around.

"Is there anything you want to tell us in the previous book?" Several juniors and disciples looked at each other.

"It should be, Master Wanyin won't lie to us." Dusty words are conclusive.

You must know that the previous volume is an all-encompassing book written by Master Wan Yin with a lot of real yuan, and Master Wan Yin has not been able to retreat since then, so it can be said that writing this book consumed too much of his effort. The mother book is kept as a treasure on the island of forgetfulness, and the child book they each hold can be used as their own guide at all times with the connection with that mother book, how can it be wrong.

Before they knew it, new information appeared in everyone's previous book, pointing them to the next location.

When they saw the final guidance, including the dust, everyone was a little stunned.

There is no clear direction at all, and everyone's guidance is different.

"This can't be all the places I've been, right?" Fu Xun said: "When will this be found." ”

……

The weather in early spring is often changeable. It was already dark and it was raining lightly.

On rainy days, bookstores don't have much business.

In Zhile Zhai's store, only Li Yixuan sat alone behind the table, writing and changing something with a pen, frowning and pondering.

Maybe she was so focused that she didn't even feel someone coming in.

With Qiu Shaohu's intrusion, the originally dry room also brought a trace of cool water vapor, as if foggy.

Qiu Shaohu flashed and arrived in front of Li Yixuan's eyes. When Li Yixuan noticed it, he was extremely stunned.

"Oops, what are you doing!" She was startled by Qiu Shaohu's sudden appearance, and even the papers on the table were inadvertently overturned by herself.

Qiu Shaohu grabbed one of them and saw that this was the beginning of a newly written book, and at the same time read out the content on it, "My Journey of Cultivating Immortals, written by a distant unknown. You? ”

Qiu Shaohu didn't expect that the female shopkeeper of the big bookseller in front of him was actually one of the authors of the most common stories told by storytellers on the street - a distant nameless student.

"That's right, it's me, I'm a distant nameless student." Li Yixuan laughed helplessly, "I can't imagine that the author of those strange books is actually a woman." ”

"So, you and Yangzhai Hanke ......," Qiu Shaohu said with some speculation.

"I also started writing books because of the influence of Yangzhai Hanke." Li Yixuan was frank and told everything about it, "I have always liked those strange stories, and I always have a yearning for the legendary immortals beyond ordinary people." So when I first saw the book written by Yangzhai Hanke, I was simply stunned, I never thought that there was such a beautiful book in the world. ”

"So I also started to write my own book under the pseudonym of 'Far Away Unknown Students'. But although I have written so much, my fame is still much worse than that of Yangzhai after all. His book is just too good. ”

Li Yixuan is all looking forward to it.

"Then you must know who Yangzhai Hanke is." Since the last time Qiu Shaohu found out about the connection between Zhile Zhai and Yangzhai Hanke, he has always wanted to ask clearly, but he has never found a suitable opportunity.

Right now, it is the most appropriate time, not only the book "The Legend of Grace" at the beginning, but also the connection with the mysterious woman now, all of which fall on Yang Zhai Hanke alone.

What kind of person is this?

"So you're here for him." Li Yixuan didn't seem surprised, smiled a little, and said, "But if I tell you - in fact, I don't know, who is Yangzhai Hanke?" ”

With a calm tone, he tells incredible facts.

"You don't know?" Qiu Shaohu was stunned.

"Although all the books are only sold in my Zhilezhai for a long time, outsiders also think that he is a special author who only cooperates with us. But actually, I don't know what kind of person the other person is. Not only I don't know, but no one has ever seen him in the entire Zhile Zhai. Li Yixuan's tone was faint, as if telling an unrelated matter.

"So, how did his books get published?" Qiu Shaohu was still incredulous.

"On the first three days of every month, he would mail the manuscript and ask us to print and bind it before publishing, and he never broke the contract. And each manuscript fee is also mailed back to him according to the address he sent it. ”

"This kind of cooperation has lasted for many years. After each mailing, his next address will change and will never be repeated. And I sent people to find him according to those addresses, but I never got anything. ”

Li Yixuan paused and said, "So, in fact, I know nothing about Yangzhai Hanke, like you and the readers of those books, except for knowing such an author who wrote books. ”

Li Yixuan's words also carried a little regret, obviously because he was always unsightly for the people he admired.

"That's how it is." Qiu Shaohu didn't expect it to be a clueless result, and it seemed that Li Yixuan didn't deceive himself at all, so he couldn't help but hesitate.

Seeing him like this, Li Yixuan chuckled lightly and said, "I saw that you were menacing, and at first I thought you were going to ask for guilt, but I didn't expect you to be embarrassed." What are you looking for Yangzhai Hanke, what are you going to do? ”

Qiu Shaohu thought about it for a while, pinched the matter and talked about it for a while, of course, he only said that someone probably took a painting with Yangzhai Hanke's handwriting, and he didn't know where to look for it. After all, about the matter of "The Legend of Chess", there are also some secrets of the Forgotten Island, and he will not say it.

"It's a coincidence that someone took something with the mark of Yangzhai Hanke." Li Yixuan muttered to himself.

"What coincidence?" Qiu Shaohu asked.

"Coincidentally, I also lost something here not long ago, which was also part of the previous manuscript of Yangzhai Hanke. Someone pretended to come in and buy a book and stole it while no one was looking. I used to wonder who would steal them, but now I have a clue. Li Yixuan said.

"Do you know how to find those people?" Qiu Shaohu said.

"I don't know yet, but ......" Li Yixuan paused and waved casually.

The gauzy sleeves on his arms fluttered in mid-air, like countless butterflies flying, and finally turned into phantoms, densely scattered around him.

Each of the phantoms was holding a pen and writing something on a non-existent piece of paper.

The content of the writing is much the same, the difference is some details. Eventually, these nuanced stories became more and more plausible in their reflection of each other, and began to fit in with reality.

Looking at the surprised Qiu Shaohu, Li Yixuan smiled and said, "Don't forget, I'm a story author." Three thousand worlds, one pen is enough to tell the story. Whether it's reality or story, the development of everything always needs logic. I just need to find the most logical possibility that they stole my stuff and soon find out where they are. ”

Li Yixuan was right.

The phantoms write about what they say about the person who stole her things, how they will steal, and how they will escape without being discovered.

Each phantom writes down different possibilities, and finally logically continues to guess the development of the story in this direction, while the illogical one changes the method and knows that it is closer to the truth. In this way, step by step, find out the reasonable way of those people who stole things that day, and finally restore the whole reality.

This is also a kind of deduction, but it is completely different from the way of Qimen, which is to use all possible guesses to guess every outcome, and finally arrive at the most realistic exhaustive deduction.

is also like Li Yixuan said, it is her unique ability as an author.
