Chapter 523: Something Is Better Than Nothing

The man in black jumped up quickly and tried to resist.

Jiangnan didn't give him any chance, and punched out with overwhelming force, like a mountain of tai, overwhelming him, unstoppable.

The man in black howled miserably, turned somersaults and rolled several times on the ground, and dropped the book in his hand.

He wanted to pick it up, but there was no time. Jiang Nan arrived in front of him in the blink of an eye and took off with a flying kick.

The man in black was kicked far away like a ball.

Jiang Nan picked up the book and looked at it. It was not damaged at all.

He was about to chase after her because he was worried about Lin Ruolan, but when he looked back, he saw that Lin Ruolan had already run towards here.

Jiang Nan breathed a sigh of relief and turned around again. The man in black had already run away.

Several security guards chased after him, but couldn't find even a shadow.

Jiang Nan said hello to some relevant places, and asked them to take the ancient book and leave in the library.

"You worked too hard. You were so high. How could you jump? It was too dangerous. Don't do this again."

Back in the car, Lin Ruolan scolded Jiang Nan, still looking left and right to see if he was injured.

"It doesn't matter, it's nothing."

Jiang Nan laughed it off.

As the God of War, I have never seen any storms.

If you don't have such ability, how can you command thousands of troops?

He has become accustomed to those devilish trainings, climbing over walls, and even performing tasks between cliffs.

A man of iron bones has lost several layers of flesh and blood before developing his high-strength skills.

But Lin Ruolan felt distressed. She felt scared when she thought about seeing Jiang Nan fall with her own eyes.

"Okay, don't look at me like this. If I were as strong as before and didn't have this disease, I think I could fly." Jiang Nan said half-jokingly.

Lin Ruolan chuckled, pinched him slightly, and said coquettishly: "If I don't like you, I will blow."

When Jiang Nan saw her smile, she felt so beautiful that she couldn't help but kiss her.

Lin Ruolan blushed and said, "Stop being like this, show me the book."

I opened the ancient book, it was already yellowed, and some pages were even torn.

This is an illustration book called Folk Scenery. Its general content is a record of some local customs and customs.

It seems that this book has been around since the Ming Dynasty.

"This is an antique. It feels strange when you think about it. Nan, don't you think there's something wrong with it?" Lin Ruolan lowered her head and pondered.

"Yes, how could such an ancient book appear in such an obvious place in the library?" Jiang Nan asked in confusion.

Lin Ruolan remembered what the staff said and said: "Yes, this can be said to be a cultural relic. It is protected. How can it be left there casually and be read through?"

Jiang Nan suddenly thought of something, "Should I ask Professor He about this, but she asked us to get it from that place. At first, we didn't expect it to be so ancient."

Lin Ruolan suggested that she go back and ask Professor He.

However, the two returned to the old lady's previous residence and found that she was no longer there.

I contacted her, but I couldn't get in touch with her. I asked some people, but I didn't know where she was. I only knew that Professor He had quit all his jobs, saying he wanted to retire and go see the world.

Lin Ruolan was a little lost and didn't know what happened.

"Tell me, could it be that my teacher put it there intentionally, otherwise there is no way to explain it."

"Maybe, she probably did it for safety reasons, but there is one thing that makes me wonder. If those people are from the Sirius Society, why are they always ahead of us, or even one step ahead of us," Jiang Nan said.

"I don't understand. Maybe they are more powerful and more terrifying than we thought. However, we only have one book now, so we don't know if we can decipher the meaning of the code."

"Something is better than nothing. You have to give it a try. I believe in your ability."

Jiang Nan encouraged Lin Ruolan and accompanied her to study together.

During this period, he took his daughter and Lin Ruolan in the room for several days, barely taking any rest.

According to the method given to her by the professor, she tried again and again.

In the end, that was all she could decipher.

When Jiang Nan saw how hard she was working, he asked Lin Ruolan to rest for a while.

"You tried your best. After all, the information is limited, so it doesn't matter."

Lin Ruolan rubbed her forehead and smiled bitterly, "Hey, now, I have only obtained two words of information. After repeated verification, I am sure that these two words are Xiaohe Lane."

"Really? Could this be the name of a certain place?" Jiang Nan asked.

"It should be so. However, I have checked the map, searched on the computer, and eliminated them because these two words are very common. There are almost a thousand places with these two words. It is not easy to find them.

ah."

Lin Ruolan felt a little guilty, feeling that she could not help Jiangnan much.

Jiang Nan's eyes were bright, "It's okay. At least, it's much better than finding a needle in a haystack before. As long as you can be sure it's in these locations, you can go check them one by one."

Lin Ruolan sighed, "But in this way, it is easy to alert the snake. Organizations like the Sirius Society are so cunning. If there is any slightest sign of trouble, they will run away or even hide. Then, our work will be in vain.

"

"I understand, Lan, you should have a good rest. I will take care of the rest. Don't you still have a business meeting? You seem to be preparing to bid. If you haven't had a good rest these days, don't worry about it anymore.

Already."

Jiang Nan brought foot washing water, soaked Lin Ruolan's feet, and gave her a massage.

Lin Ruolan felt very comfortable. She was indeed tired and fell asleep soon.

After his daughter also fell asleep, Jiang Nan called Cheng Yue and went outside to find a place to talk.

Let’s talk about the general progress.

"I'll leave the search to you. The Blue Merchant Alliance will have a lot of manpower and should be able to find this location faster. However, you have to be careful not to alert the enemy and do it secretly."

Cheng Yue nodded and said seriously, "Don't worry, Brother Nan, I promise to send my most trusted people to investigate. Once there are results, I will tell you and try to rule it out and find the real location as soon as possible."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, let's get to work."

Later, Jiang Nan called Bai Haoming and asked him to meet.

Bai Haoming drank some wine somewhere and was drunk, shaking his head as he walked.

Jiang Nan looked at him angrily and said, "What the hell are you doing? How can you do things like this? Believe it or not, I will arrest you immediately and send you back. Now you are committing meritorious service. Do you think it is a vacation?"

Bai Haoming smiled and reached out to pat Jiang Nan's shoulder, but Jiang Nan pushed him away.

He held a cigarette in his mouth and said with drunken eyes: "Hey, I say Mr. Jiang, don't be so strict. If you come to me, please tell me if you have anything."

Jiang Nan looked indifferent, pulled him to the car, closed the window, and said: "Did you know that there are places containing the words Xiaohe Lane? You are particularly familiar with it."
