C1098 A Shocking Secret
"Of course I believe you." Yang Xuan looked at the two of them and said seriously, "What I mean is, what if this thing is placed in a place that we can't even think of even if we see it?"
"What do you mean?" Yinling was stunned by Yang Xuan's words and asked in confusion.
Yang Xuan smiled and pointed at the door.
"That's right. Why did I forget about this?" Yinling patted her head and suddenly understood.
Yuh Qingcheng looked in the direction where Yang Xuan's finger was pointing and said with a confused face, "Ah? Where is it?"
"We have searched the entire backyard of this tavern. We only need to tear down the wall. There's a room here, and none of us have ever looked for it. " Yang Xuan explained to Yuh Qingcheng.
Only then did Yuh Qingcheng's eyes light up. She reacted.
That's right, the three of them split up and did indeed flip the entire pub upside down, but they only left out one place, which was the lobby of the pub.
The four of them returned to the main hall and looked around.
Yesterday, Wangfu had indeed left in a hurry. The tables and chairs in the hall had not been tidied up. There was also a counter in the hall, where the shopkeeper used it to collect money. However, the manager of Anye Tavern, Wangfu, seemed to have hired someone else, so the person who usually sat in front of the counter was not him.
On the table at the counter, there was an open book that recorded yesterday's income. This was the account book of the tavern, and normally, it would be changed once a month.
Yang Xuan picked up the account book and flipped through it a few times, but he didn't find anything unusual. He looked at the bottom of the counter again. There were a few small cabinets there.
Yang Xuan opened the cabinet and a row of leather books appeared in front of him. On the spine of these books, there were records of which year and which month these books were.
Judging from the number of books, Anye Tavern had been here for about ten years. There were more than a hundred books here, and twelve of them were piled together. From top to bottom, they were accounts from the end of the year to the year.
Although these thick account books didn't seem to make much of a difference, in the previous years' books... There was already a thick layer of dust. However, in this pile of account books, Yang Xuan keenly discovered a different account book.
From the spine of the book, this account book was from two years ago. The stack of accounts with it had already been covered with a layer of dust, but this one was the only one. The cover was still very shiny, obviously because people often opened it.
"I found it." Yang Xuan saw this discovery and shouted excitedly.
He reached out and picked up the account book. It was indeed different from other accounts. Although the outer cover was brand new, he could clearly see the paper inside. The corner had already been folded. It was obvious that someone would often flip through this account book to cause such a situation to occur.
Yinling and Yuh Qingcheng heard this and also hurriedly came over. Yang Xuan explained the process of discovering this account book to the two of them and then opened the account book on the table.
As expected, the account book did not record the income of any tavern, but all kinds of things.
Connecting these things together, Yang Xuan also discovered a shocking secret.
"February of Year 602, I request three '12' and one '9" from the Heavenly Devil.
"March of Year 602 of the Qing Calendar, the Tianma sent three' 12 'and three' 9."
" What does that mean? " Yuh Qingcheng looked at the information written on the account book and asked in puzzlement. But Yang Xuan and Yinling did look at each other, their eyes full of surprise.
This was a huge discovery.
This year was Year 603 of the Qing Calendar, which meant that this was something that happened a year ago. Although he didn't know what the Tianma written on it was, the 'Twelve' that he couldn't understand... There was also 'Nine', which Yang Xuan was very familiar with.
Before this... In the dungeon of Xuan Martial Pavilion, on the book that Yang Xuan and Xuan Yu found together... It also recorded the same number, from the first row to the 27th. These 27 numbers represented 27 types of monsters that ordinary people had never seen or heard of before.
And the 12 and 9 written here were obviously two of them. And after the six monsters were sent over, they were also sent to Liu Yunzhi by Wangfu.
Everyone continued to look down, wanting to find more clues.
Suddenly, Yinling let out a sharp cry and stretched out a finger to press on one of the messages.
"Year 603, May of the Qing Calendar. Mission failed. The failed product is sent back to the Tianma."0
"Year 603, May of the Qing Calendar. Requesting the Tianma to send someone to kill Liu Yunzhi."
"Year 603, Calendar. Year 603, May. The Sect Master of the Xuan Martial Pavilion has awakened. Requesting to be canceled. Borrowing the Sect Master of the Xuan Martial Pavilion to eliminate Liu Yunzhi."
"Year 603, July. Liu Yunzhi is dead. The failed item cannot be retrieved. Retreat. Return to the Heavenly Devil."
Yang Xuan frowned when he saw the few lines that Yinling pointed out. He could vaguely guess that this account book was specially left for him by Wangfu.
This made Yang Xuan's hair stand on end. It was July. May was two months ago. In other words, Wangfu had decided to get rid of Liu Yunzhi two months ago. Furthermore, they had chosen a way that would never expose themselves.
However, what made Yang Xuan feel strange was why Wangfu, who was still in the Bedlam Lands, knew about the Northern Domain.
Apart from that, there was also this organization called the Heavenly Devil, and who was it? It was obvious that this Heavenly Devil was the reason why Liu Yunzhi did such a heartless thing under Wangfu's control. However, there was no record of their purpose in this mission. The failure of the mission didn't mention anything about the method of failure.
All kinds of questions lingered in Yang Xuan's mind, leaving him puzzled and puzzled. But no matter what, he had obtained some clues.
"Where should we start investigating now?" Yang Xuan looked up at Yinling, but judging from her expression, she seemed to only know about these things.
Yinling thought for a moment and said, "I know. This force called Sky Devil is the mastermind behind all of this. As long as we know what it is and where it is, maybe we can solve the puzzle."
"However, do you know how to find this Heavenly Demon?" Yang Xuan asked curiously.
Yinling shook her head and said mysteriously to Yang Xuan, "Don't worry. This matter has already started more than ten years ago. I have already grasped some information about the people related to Wangfu. As long as I can find them, I might be able to get some information about this Heavenly Devil from them. "
As she spoke, an excited expression appeared on her face, as if she had uncovered everything. However, Yang Xuan's brows were still tightly knitted, because he had a vague feeling. There must be some kind of conspiracy behind this matter.
