Chapter 1096 Idle Man in the Song Dynasty 15
Liu Qi came to Kaifeng Prefecture and met Baiyutang, as well as Lord Bao and Mr. Gongsun.
Everyone in Kaifeng Prefecture was worried about Zhan Zhao's disappearance.
Lord Gongsun told Liu Qi about Zhan Zhao’s situation before his disappearance.
There was a theft case in the palace. The emperor handed the case over to Kaifeng Prefecture for investigation, asking Lord Bao to catch the thief and retrieve the stolen things.
Lord Bao and Mr. Gongsun discovered some clues in the palace. Zhan Zhao followed the clues and found out of the city, and then never came back and lost his trace.
Lord Bao and Mr. Gongsun were worried, and Bai Yutang came to find Zhan Zhao to show off. After knowing that Zhan Zhao was missing, he volunteered to find someone.
But Bai Yutang followed the clues and found only a dilapidated temple, with nothing inside.
Bai Yutang: "There are only traces of the cat wearing a cat in the temple, and there are no traces of him leaving. He seemed to have disappeared from the temple out of thin air. I searched the dilapidated temple and found no authenticity in the secret room."
Bai Yutang looked at Liu Qi: "Will there be any ghosts or monsters in the temple?"
Liu Qiong: "I have to go and see it myself to make a judgment."
Bai Yutang: "I'll take you there."
Mr. Gongsun stopped the two: "Young Master Liu has worked hard all the way, so let Lord Liu rest first."
Bai Yutang slapped his forehead and said, "Yes, Ah, please rest first."
Liu Qi shook his head: "No need to rest. I used to ride in a carriage and I was not tired."
In fact, he was a little bit about his successful practice, just like taking a step for half an hour after a meal.
Seeing that Liu Qi's face was indeed not exhausted, Bai Yutang nodded, "Then let's go."
The two left Kaifeng Prefecture, then left the capital, and walked more than thirty miles to a mountain.
The mountain is not high, you can see the top of the mountain at a glance.
There is a dilapidated temple halfway up the mountain. The temple is not big and many places are dilapidated.
However, there is a room that is kept in a relatively complete manner, and Zhan Zhao's footprints stay in this room.
Bai Yutang said to Liu Qi: "Zhan Xiaomao must have disappeared out of thin air in this room. Look, are there any traces of demons here?"
Liu Qi shook his head: "There is no demonic energy, nor ghost energy."
Bai Yutang: "Isn't it a demon? Then who else can take away the cat with such powerful powers?"
You should know that he and Zhan Zhao are the second most top experts in the world, and that his four sworn brothers are not his and Zhan Zhao's opponents.
Who else can be better than them and be able to capture Zhan Zhao without leaving any trace?
Liu Qi turned his head and looked at a wall in the wing room: "Mr. Zhan did not leave this room."
Bai Yutang looked at him and found a painting on the wall on one side of the wing room.
The paintings are very meticulous and the pictures are lifelike.
The above is a village.
There are mountains far away from the village, rivers at the entrance of the village, and there are fertile fields with grain planted near the village.
Men work in fertile fields.
There is a small farmyard in the village, where chickens and ducks are raised. Some women are feeding chickens and some are washing clothes by the river.
The children were playing in the water by the river.
What a beautiful pastoral view.
Bai Yutang had a good look and saw clearly that the people in the picture had very detailed appearances, exactly the same as Zhenren.
Bai Yutang blinked his eyes, and a guess came to his mind.
He asked Liu Qi: "You won't say that Zhan Xiaomao entered this painting?"
Liu Qi raised his finger and pointed to the point in the painting: "Look at it."
Bai Yutang looked at what he pointed out and saw that there was a house that was completely different from other houses in the village. It was a three-entre courtyard made of blue bricks and red tiles. People living there should be more wealthy. The window of a wing room in the second yard is open, revealing the side of a figure.
The figure in the painting is very small, but Bai Yutang still sees that the side is very imaginative with someone's side.
Bai Yutang was shocked: "No, right? You won't say that the silhouette is the cat in the cat?"
Liu Qiong: "Have you ever heard the story of painting walls?"
Bai Yutang shook his head.
Of course he hadn't heard of it.
Bai Wuye was from the Song Dynasty, while Pu Songling was from the Qing Dynasty!
"Painted Wall" will be born a few hundred years later.
Liu Qi briefly told Bai Wuye about the content of "Painted Wall".
Bai Wuye pointed to the mural: "So, this is "Painted Wall"."
Liu Qiong: "It is the same to be able to pull people in and trap them, but the others... are very different."
Bai Wuye: "So, has Zhan Xiaomao really entered the mural?"
The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥Back⊥⊥⊥⊥!
His eyes lit up, he leaned over to the front of the mural, reached out to poke the figure in the wing room.
Of course, he can't poke people.
Mr. Bai Wu said, "Zhan Xiaomao, can you hear us? If you can hear something, give me a reaction."
Just as the windows in the mural were all opened, Zhan Zhao's face was exposed.
Zhan Zhao opened his mouth, as if he had said something, but neither Liu Qi nor Bai Yutang could hear it.
Zhan Zhao showed an anxious look on his face.
Liu Qiong spoke out to comfort Zhan Zhao: "Don't worry, Lord Zhan. I will protect Bai Wu and will not let him get into trouble. If you persist, we will find a way to rescue you."
Zhan Zhao in the mural heard Liu Qi's words and nodded to the outside, his expression regained his calmness.
Master Bai Wu was amazed.
"It's so interesting that Zhan Kitten has become so small!"
Liu Qi turned around and walked out. Bai Yutang hurriedly followed and asked, "Where to go? Don't you get Zhan Zhao out first?"
Liu Qi: "Mr. Zhan is not in danger of his life now. Let's investigate the origin of this mural first, and report safety to Mr. Bao and Mr. Gongsun and others."
The two returned to Kaifeng Prefecture and talked about Zhan Zhao's current situation.
Mr. Bao and Mr. Gongsun were both surprised and did not expect that the mural could swallow people in.
Liu Qi asked Master Bao: "Mr. Bao, what are the items stolen from the palace?"
Lord Bao: "It's an antique pen..."
Lord Bao paused and asked Liu Qi: "Does that pen have anything to do with that mural?"
Liu Qiong: "It's very likely!"
Liu Qiong: "The people in the village on the mural live. They know how many years they have lived in the painting. I noticed that the power of the painting is weakening. When all the power disappears, if the people inside are not suitable for being swallowed, they will be thrown out of the mural. I think the person who steals the antique pen wants to replenish the power of the mural so that the people inside can continue to live in it."
Master Bai Wu was puzzled: "How to replenish your strength?"
The other three looked at him with the look of the silly child.
Master Bai bulged his cheeks.
Liu Qi quickly explained to him: "Of course, I will renovate the mural and re-paint it."
Bai Wuye: "So that's it. Is the person who stole the antique pen the person who painted this mural?"
Liu Qiong: "Not necessarily, let's find out who the person who painted the mural is first."
Lord Bao: "I asked Zhang Long and Zhao Hu to investigate. Thank you for your hard work, let's go and rest first."
