Chapter 180 Mezzanine
Sure enough, there is something strange!
After Jarvis scanned the "Records of Pingnan Prefecture", Shen Lang was surprised to find that the book actually had a interlayer.
Moreover, there were two pages sandwiched between one another, and it was made very, very delicately. If he hadn't felt something strange on the last page, he wouldn't have noticed it.
After taking a look at the surroundings, Shen Lang snapped his fingers and put the book into the system. He walked to Mingyue, held her cheek and kissed her: "Great?"
Shen Lang's actions made Mingyue cold, with a question mark on her face, and she muttered: "Great? What's great?"
"Let's go, go back, go back!" Shen Lang reached out and grabbed Mingyue's little hand, then shouted, and the other three women came over and followed Shen Lang to leave the fourth floor.
"Routine inspection!" When they arrived at the door of the Sutra Repository, the guard stopped Shen Lang and his companions and spoke.
"good!"
Shen Lang nodded and opened his hands casually: "Come on!"
The guard then reached out and searched Shen Lang's body, but found nothing. Another female guard then conducted a simple search on the four women and let them go.
Without any delay, Shen Lang took the four girls directly back to their residence.
When he arrived at his room, Shen Lang snapped his fingers and took out "Records of Pingnan Prefecture", and then took out the saber.
Starting from the first page, he cut it open bit by bit. The four girls sat around the table, very curious about Shen Lang's actions.
This was a very meticulous project. Shen Lang was so tired that he was sweating profusely. It took him three hours to open all the interlayers. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and felt a little excited.
“Finally done!”
"This book actually has a layer in between?" Mingyue exclaimed in surprise as she looked at the book.
Qingsi and Chang Rumo were also very curious about the book. Although Wanyan Ruyu was not that surprised, she kept glancing at the tree.
"The general is innocent!"
Shen Lang opened the first page, and the first line of words attracted Shen Lang's attention.
Sure enough, there is something fishy going on!
Next, Shen Lang read all the interlayers without missing a single word. When he read the end, he was stunned and broke out in a cold sweat!
The information conveyed in it is simply horrifying!
There are two main points in the things recorded by this soldier. One is the real reason why Bai He was stabbed to death, and the other is the situation of the Huaxia Empire at that time.
Bai He killed more than a dozen assassins and was assassinated by the emperor's decree, saying that he had killed the envoys of the Sakura Empire. At that time, Shen Lang knew that this was nonsense, and he had no idea the real reason.
And this soldier told the reason!
Because the soldier's brother was a guard in the palace of the Huaxia Empire, he knew a little bit about it.
The real reason for ordering Bai He to be executed was just a cover. What really caused Bai He's death was that the envoy of the Sakura Empire put pressure on the Emperor of the Huaxia Empire, and he did so under pressure!
And this pressure is related to alchemy!
I don't know what kind of elixir they are refining, but if this elixir is successful, it can change the fate and history of the entire Chinese Empire. So for the sake of the overall situation, I listened to the advice of the Sakura Empire.
Death to Baihe!
Another key point is that the situation of the Huaxia Empire at that time was not optimistic. The politics was in chaos. The princes and dukes were dissatisfied with the emperor. They had even united many forces and wanted to change the dynasty, but it was not implemented in the end. The specific reason was unknown.
This made Shen Lang very confused. What kind of elixir could make the emperor of the Huaxia Empire obey the arrangement of the envoy of the Sakura Empire and order the death of Bai He? And what kind of elixir could change the fate of the Huaxia Empire?
Shen Lang poured himself a cup of tea, raised his head and drank it, then looked at the women and asked, "Do you know who the contemporary alchemy masters are?"
"Master of Alchemy?" Chang Rumo was stunned: "Why do you suddenly want to know this? Husband, do you want to refine pills?"
Shen Lang shook his head and said, "No, I want to find an alchemy master and ask him something!"
"The Jiangxin Martial Arts Academy has one!" Qingsi blinked and said, "One of the best academies in the Huaxia Empire naturally has one of the best alchemy masters in the Huaxia Empire!"
Shen Lang suddenly realized, slapped his forehead, and said: "A word awakens the dreamer!"
After saying that, Shen Lang stood up from the chair: "I'm going out for a while, you wait for me. If I come back late, you can go to bed first!" After saying that, he left in a hurry without waiting for the girls to answer.
"What's wrong with you, husband?" Mingyue blinked, turned her head to look at Qingsi, and asked.
Qingsi shook her head, looked at Shen Lang's disappearing back, and said, "I don't know!"
Chang Rumo was holding a cup of tea, his big eyes moving around, no one knew what he was thinking about, while Wanyan Ruyu was indifferent and turned her head to look out the window.
There are four people, and not one left!
After leaving his residence, Shen Lang first went to find Ximen Wubing.
Shen Lang's sudden visit surprised Ximen Wubing. After hearing the purpose of Shen Lang's visit, Ximen Wubing was even more surprised.
However, he did not ask any questions. He just handed a token to Shen Lang and asked Shen Lang to find an alchemy master named Wen Tai and get the support of Ximen Wubing. Shen Lang was very happy and went there .
But unfortunately, Master Wen Tai the Alchemist had gone out for something and would not be back until three days later. This made Shen Lang very helpless, as he had come here with great enthusiasm but ended up with nothing. But three days is only three days, and there are still competitions to come, so he would not leave anyway !
"You're back so soon?" Several girls stayed in Shen Lang's room bored. They thought it would take a long time for Shen Lang to come back, but they didn't expect that Shen Lang would come back in just half an hour.
"Well, we can only see each other in three days!" Shen Lang sat down, poured a cup of tea, and drank it by himself.
"Husband, you are so anxious, what exactly do you want to consult the master of alchemy?" Mingyue asked, "You don't want to learn how to make alchemy, do you?"
Shen Lang smiled and said, "Of course not. I'm so powerful, why would I need to make pills?"
"Then what are you doing?" Mingyue continued to ask.
Shen Lang clicked his tongue, put down the teacup in his hand, looked at the four women, and asked, "In your opinion, what kind of elixir is the most powerful, and can even change history?"
"A pill that can make you stronger!" Mingyue was the first to raise her hand and speak.
"A pill that can save lives!" Qingsi thought for a moment and spoke.
"I feel that it should be the elixir that can produce masters of all kinds!" Chang Rumo blinked and expressed his opinion.
After listening to the three women's answers, Shen Lang shook his head slightly.
At this time, Wanyan Ruyu drank a cup of tea and spoke lightly.
"For the empire, there is no better elixir than one that can prolong life!"
