"In terms of Yaoqin, I can replace the master. ”

Mengyu gave a solution.

"That's a good result. ”

Hearing Meng Yu say this, plus Meng Yu is Qin Ling again, Zhen Di can be regarded as approving this way.

"Zhen Di, you don't have to bother about this matter. Because of this problem, there is no solution! What the master doesn't like, no one can force him to like it. For example, he doesn't like children, he doesn't like people with big tears, and so on. Almost all of Xiao Jue's rules have violated the master's taboos. ”

However, Zhen Di was still a little unwilling in his eyes.

In order not to let Zhen Di's actions interfere with his plans, Mengyu "kindly" comforted.

After all, if Zhen Di helped himself, it would be okay to say, if it was self-defeating, it would be troublesome.

There are enough troubles now, so it's better not to make a fuss.

"Yes~ I remember that when I was just sent to Jingting, after the master handed me and my younger brother over to the eldest brother, his first rule was not to cry. For that, I didn't suffer less from his board!"

When it comes to crying, Zhen Di seems to have a deep feeling.

"Most of those boards are for Zhen Zheng, right?"

Meng Yu blinked and lifted the old bottom.

"He is my only brother, my only relative in this world. ”

Although Zhen Di's face was helpless, it was also a little quiet and satisfied.

"I understand, just like me and Lu. ”

In this regard, the solidity of the alliance between the two has been strengthened.

After all, both have similar experiences, and they have a sense of sympathy.

"By the way, what did you come to me for?

Zhen Di also smiled faintly at this.

Then, Zhen Di asked according to his own speculation.

"You're smart, too!"

Meng Yu smiled slightly, a little less banter, and a little more recognition from people in the same world.

"Is there anything wrong with that piece of cold iron?"

Zhen Di ignored Meng Yu's praise and just went on business.

"It's not. I just want to ask you, where is there a record of such a city? I am not familiar with the architecture of the Western Regions, but if it is an ordinary house, I know it well. ”

Meng Yu shook his head.

Although Meng Yu already had some clear veins in his heart about the secret of the cold iron piece, Meng Yu did not intend to reveal it.

After all, the matter... We'll have to wait for another set of messages to be completely sure.

"Do you mean to put something like a prefectural register?"

Listening to Meng Yu's description, Zhen Di couldn't help but speculate.

"Well, yes, I'd like to see what is written about this place. After all, this place was once prosperous, and it should be documented. ”

Meng Yu nodded, this was also one of the purposes of his trip to find Zhen Di.

Having a familiar person to lead the way can save you a lot of trouble.

"Do you have a map of this place? I'll look for it, and I might be able to find it. ”

Of course, Zhen Di is not stupid, such a big city is looking for it one by one, and he must not die of exhaustion.

"Yes. ”

Meng Yu handed Zhen Di the map he had scavenged in the study of this mansion before.

"This should be the place. ”

Zhen Di unfolded the map, looked at it carefully, and pointed to a place on the map.

The architecture of the Western Regions is different from that of the Central Plains, and rooms with corresponding functions can be found according to the direction and format of distribution.

In fact, as Qin Jiang said, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Mengyu does know something, but in order to tighten the alliance, let the alliance have a sense of participation in it, and increase mutual understanding and trust through joint action. Meng Yu came to pull Zhen Di at this time, otherwise, wouldn't it be more convenient for a person to be one-footed?

"Let's go and have a look. ”

Meng Yu looked at the place Zhen Di pointed at with deep meaning and proposed.

"Good!"

Zhen Di thought that there was nothing wrong with him, and he could also help Mengyu by the way, so he agreed.

This is really the first cooperation between Mengyu and Zhen Di.

However, what neither of them expected was that there was a tacit understanding between the two who were once enemies.

The two of them walked according to the map for a short time, and then they came to a house. The house is not large, but it has three floors and a small square house. The layout of the house is relatively simple, not as luxurious and beautiful as other houses, but there is a faint smell of books.

"According to the map marking, this should be the place. ”

Zhen Di looked at the map, then at the house in front of him, and affirmed.

"Let's go inside!"

Meng Yu invited.

"Hmm. ”

Zhen Di put away the map and gently pushed the door open.

"Huh~ This ash can choke people to death!"

However, because no one took care of it for a long time, as soon as I opened the door, there was a burst of dust.

Meng Yu hurriedly covered his mouth and nose, looking disgusted.

“... Let's split up. ”

Zhen Di looked at Meng Yu, who was full of disgust, and seemed to be a little unaccustomed to Meng Yu's cheerful temperament. Then, Zhen Di, who was not very comfortable, was slightly embarrassed.

"Zhen Di, is this place just like the scripture pavilion you are on, specially used to place all kinds of books?"

Mengyu didn't care about Zhen Di's embarrassment, and looked around when she entered the door.

"Hmm. ”

Zhen Di is the same.

"There's a lot of books here!

Meng Yu came to a bookshelf and looked at it, and was quite satisfied.

"Hmm. ”

Zhen Di also came to the bookshelf, ready to start rummaging through the work.

"Zhen Di, is there only such a place in this city where you can find what I want?"

Meng Yu winked at Zhen Di through the gap between the bookshelves.

"This is probably the only place in the whole city where books are placed. ”

Zhen Di paid attention to the book and didn't see Meng Yu's blink, but still answered Meng Yu's question according to his own understanding.

"Okay~"

Meng Yu saw a practical person like Zhen Di, who only knew how to do things, and didn't know how to be funny, and he felt bored, and he was a little embarrassed when he spoke.

Then, the two of them began to devote themselves to rummaging work.

However, to the disappointment of the two, they turned over all three floors, but found nothing.

The two of them came together, staring wide-eyed.

"How can there be no record of such a large city and such a prosperous city?"

Meng Yu squinted and wondered.

"It's weird. ”

Zhen Di also agreed with Mengyu's statement.

"Zhen Di, do you Western Regions use some special marks or symbols to record things?"

Meng Yu thought about it, this is also a possibility.

And some of the books that I just saw looked crooked and similar to pictures, maybe they were what I was looking for!

"Yes, but these are limited to records of spells, witchcraft, and Gu arts. ”

Zhen Di shook his head and denied Meng Yu's guess.

"There are obviously some traces of the life of Han literati and ink writers here, how can there be no relevant records?"

Meng Yu really thinks it's weird.

"In addition to the literati and writers of the Han nationality, there are also many business travelers of other nationalities, as well as some dignitaries. ”

Zhen Di's knowledge is indeed relatively broad, which provides some convenience.

"In that case, then someone must maintain order!"

Hearing Zhen Di say this, Meng Yu felt that the Yin soldiers that night could be confirmed.

"Well, everybody is exposed to different cultures, and it's very likely that they will contradict each other. Contradictions are inevitable. ”

Zhen Di also remembered the Yin soldier that night, but his tone was quite calm.

"But it looks like it's quite harmonious. This may indicate that the management here is relatively lax. ”

Through these, Meng Yu came to a more reliable conclusion.

After all, if the management is very strict, it will definitely cause a very big storm because of the different customs.

"It shouldn't be the kind of government forced suppression. ”

Zhen Di also agreed with Mengyu's speculation.

"I can't find it here, so where do we find it?"

Meng Yu was a little difficult.

"Why don't we go to the army location?"

Zhen Di gave a place to go.

After all, generally speaking, there is no such thing as a prefectural chronicle in such a particular place for storing books. As an army, if you have been stationed here for a long time, you will definitely know about the situation here, and there will be certain records. Well, this might be a better place to go.

"But I think the answer we want to find must be here. ”

Meng Yu shook his head in disapproval, pointed to the ground with his finger, and said firmly.

"Intuition?"

Zhen Di was a little puzzled by Meng Yu's firm inference, as if intuition was the only explanation.

"Well, there's a little bit of it~ There are so many books here, and almost all kinds of them are covered. However, there are no books that record the customs here, don't you think there is something strange about this?"

Meng Yu pointed around and scratched out a suspicious point.

"Could it be that the things here have been destroyed? So, we can't find them?"

Zhen Di also followed Meng Yu's train of thought and speculated.

"But what is there to destroy the corpse of a book that records the customs and customs?

Meng Yu keenly caught an omission in Zhen Di's words.

Then, Meng Yu glanced at Zhen Di with a little meaning.

"Unless there are hidden secrets in those books!"

Zhen Di came to a startling conclusion.

"But this doesn't make sense! Before, my master and I went around the city, and the people in the city seemed to have disappeared all of a sudden. Therefore, no one should have time to destroy the corpse. And, what is this ulterior secret, which is worth the risk of this man's life?!"

Meng Yu felt that this matter was strange.

"You and your eldest brother have been secretly investigating this matter before?"

Zhen Di also felt very strange, but he paid more attention to another thing.

"The safety of each and every one of you is important to your master. ”

Although it was true that he had been secretly investigating this matter with Qin Jiang before, Meng Yu was more suspected of accompanying Qin Jiang at that time. At this time, Zhen Di asked this question, and Meng Yu was a little surprised. This man's thinking jumped a little fast! Moreover, he was still discussing the issue of books, and he was able to grasp the things about Qinjiang in his own words. It seems that Qinjiang is indeed very special to Zhen Di. In this way, it happened to be in the name of Qinjiang to sell Zhen Di a favor.

Meng Yu said sincerely. Moreover, he also patted Zhen Di's shoulder by the way, indicating the weight of their junior brothers in Qin Jiang's heart.
