Chapter 179: Historical Coincidence
After bidding farewell to the woman, Shen Lang took several ladies to a restaurant and had a feast. He was really fed up with the past three days. All he had eaten was snow rabbits, and there were only a few of them, which were not enough to fill his stomach.
Seeing Shen Lang moving his hands up and down, sweeping away everything in his path, the four women were stunned, especially Wanyan Ruyu, who kept pouting and muttering that Shen Lang seemed to be the reincarnation of a starving ghost.
Shen Lang ignored her because his attention was only on the wine and food. As for Wanyan Ruyu's ridicule, it fell on deaf ears.
"belch!"
After having a good meal and a good drink, Shen Lang sat in a chair with a big horse and a golden sword, picking his teeth with a toothpick, not to mention how comfortable it was. Looking at the four women in front of him, Shen Lang said leisurely: "Who of you has advanced?"
"I advanced!" Chang Rumo took a sip of tea and said.
"My sister Mingyue and I did not participate in the competition!" Qingsi glanced at Mingyue beside her and said.
Shen Lang nodded: "Okay, there will be a competition in two days. If we are lucky, we might be assigned to the same group!" He picked up the tea, took a sip, looked at Chang Rumo and spoke.
When Chang Rumo heard this, his eyes lit up: "That's great, haha!"
When Qingsi and Mingyue heard this, they pouted and were a little envious. If they had known that Shen Lang could come back to participate in the competition, they would have participated as well, but they didn't know if they could advance.
"By the way, Ruyu, do you know Wanyan Cangyue?" Shen Lang looked at Wanyan Ruyu beside him and asked.
"Wanyan Cangyue?" Wanyan Ruyu was stunned, and after a pause, he said, "I don't know much about her. I just know that she married Bai He. As for the rest, I really don't know!"
Shen Lang nodded, and did not continue to ask questions. He stood up from his chair and said, "I'll go to the Sutra Library to see if there are any historical records!"
"I'm going too!" Chang Rumo was the first to stand up.
"And me!" Mingyue jumped up from the chair and spoke quickly.
"I also want to see history!" Qingsi remained as calm as ever.
"What's so interesting about history!" Wanyan Ruyu curled her lips, but also stood up: "I'll go with you!"
When Shen Lang heard this, he glanced at Wanyan Ruyu who was saying one thing and doing another, and couldn't help but smile. He waved his hand and said, "Let's go!"
The five people left the restaurant in a mighty manner and rushed to the Sutra Library.
There were not many people in the Sutra Repository at this time. After Shen Lang brought the four girls to the guard and explained their purpose, they were given permission and walked in with a token.
The Sutra Library of the Xinjiang Xincheng Martial Arts Academy is very large, with seven floors. The first floor contains the basic knowledge of martial arts training, the second and third floors contain the development and application of martial energy, the fourth and fifth floors are relatively miscellaneous, with all kinds of books, and the seventh floor is relatively mysterious and has never been open to the public.
"You don't have to accompany me. You can go to whichever floor you like. I will come to find you when the time comes!" Shen Lang walked to the stairs and said to the four girls.
"I like reading history, I want to read history!" Mingyue stretched her neck and said.
Shen Lang smiled and said, "I don't believe you, but there is nothing I can do. If they want to go, then they can go." He looked at the other three women and saw that they had no objections, so he said, "Okay!"
The five of them went directly to the fourth floor, and Shen Lang rolled up his sleeves and began to look for historical records of that year on the vast bookshelf.
Qingsi randomly picked up a history book and read it with full concentration. Chang Rumo found a wild history and read it with relish. Wanyan Ruyu went shopping inside. Only Mingyue felt dizzy looking at the books on the bookshelf. She followed Shen Lang and asked, "Husband, what kind of historical information are you looking for? I'll help you!"
"Oh, okay!" Shen Lang nodded: "Historical materials about the marriage of the Nanyue Empire and the historical materials about Baihe!"
"No problem!" Mingyue blinked her big eyes and lowered her head to start searching.
When people are doing something seriously, time always passes quickly. When the sun was about to set, Shen Lang found a historical record about Baihe. He looked around, sat down on the ground, and opened the record.
This historical document was not thick, only less than thirty pages. Shen Lang quickly finished reading some records about Bai He and felt a little disappointed.
The content recorded in it is very simple. It only tells about how Bai He led the army of the Huaxia Empire to defeat the army of the Nanyue Empire with a smaller force, and the rewards for returning triumphantly. As for what happened afterwards, there is no record at all.
"Mingyue, have you found it?" Shen Lang stood up from the ground, put the book back and shouted, but he didn't hear Mingyue's response. He turned his head and looked around, and found that Mingyue was sitting on the ground leaning against the bookshelf and fell asleep.
Sure enough, Mingyue couldn't hold on for long.
Shen Lang did not wake up the sleeping Mingyue, but continued to search in the book over and over again.
"Husband, were you calling my name just now?" At this time, Mingyue raised her head sleepily, rubbed her eyes, and stood up from the ground.
"Hmm!" Shen Lang was looking with his head down.
"for you!"
At this time, a tattered book appeared in front of Shen Lang.
"This is a book I found under the bookshelf. It is covered with a thick layer of dust. I don't know if it is real!" Mingyue yawned and spoke.
Shen Lang took the tattered book and wiped the dust off it.
"Pingnan Prefecture Records!"
When Shen Lang saw the name of the tattered book, his eyes suddenly lit up. He quickly turned to the first page and was stunned, somewhat incredulous.
"A man was captured in Tianfu, suspected to be a spy, very weird!" The first sentence caused a huge wave of emotion in Shen Lang's heart.
The person suspected to be a spy, isn't that me?
Shen Lang continued to read down, and the more he read, the more frightened he became, and finally he gasped.
It really is him!
However, Shen Lang has a huge question!
This book was obviously recorded by a soldier in Baihe Mansion, and his decision to return was also a sudden inspiration. It can only be said to be a historical coincidence and would not be recorded in it.
Not only was the reality recorded, but it was also exactly the same as what happened when he went to Pingnan Prefecture!
This is a bit scary!
Could it be that my move to go back was a historical necessity?
Shen Lang continued reading and spent half an hour to finish reading the "Pingnan Prefecture Records". He was so shocked that he could no longer describe it. This soldier recorded everything that happened between him and Bai He in the past ten days from his perspective without leaving out a single detail, and in the end he also stated that he would follow Bai He and become a real soldier figurine.
Turning to the last page, Shen Lang reached out and touched the paper, feeling something was wrong!
"Jarvis, scan it!"
