Xiao Guizi stood aside and waited quietly, but she thought again in her heart that it was really strange why this nobleman wanted to eat first when he didn't want to investigate the mystery of the disappearance of the royal family.
Qi Kongming slowly ate the palace delicacies in front of him, thinking in his heart.
The most direct way to solve this mystery is to find the missing members of the royal family, but no one from the seven major families has been found, indicating that this method of finding people was discontinued from the beginning.
After all, I am just a small six-coin magician. How can I find something that the saints from the seven major families have not done?
If you can't find the person, then you have to look in the direction of why he disappeared.
Thinking of this, Qi Kongming couldn't help but speed up, finishing all the food on the table like a whirlwind.
"Xiao Guizi, where are the royal books stored?" Qi Kongming turned around and asked.
When Xiao Guizi heard this, he smiled and said, "Master, come with me."
After saying that, Xiao Guizi took the lead and Qi Kongming followed.
Soon, the two came to a tall tower-like building with dragons and phoenixes carved on it, as well as many mythical beasts.
Qi Kongming could also feel the slight fluctuations of the powerful formation and the auras of several masters from above.
The weakest one has the breath of seven coins.
Look at the three words engraved on the plaque of this building: Sutra Tibetan Pagoda.
In front of the Sutra Pagoda, there was an old man sitting on a bench with two beads in his hand.
Xiao Guizi stepped forward and said respectfully: "Mr. Ying, this is the disciple of Sect Master Chen. He is here to investigate the disappearance of the royal family. I would like to come to this scripture depository tower to read the classics. Is it possible?"
Ying Lao rolled his eyes slightly and said with a smile: "No one can come without a pass."
"This..." Xiao Guizi felt troubled when she heard this.
At this time, Qi Kongming stepped forward and took out the token given by his master.
"Look, is this a pass token?" Qi Kongming asked. When Mr. Ying saw the token, he smiled.
"That's right, please come in." Mr. Ying stood up and put away the bench with a wave of his hand.
He pressed his hand on a switch on the door, and then the door of the sutra storage tower slowly opened.
"Xiao Guizi, you can't go in." Before going in, Mr. Ying suddenly turned around and said to Xiao Guizi. Upon hearing this, Xiao Guizi nodded and stepped aside.
"Sir, I'll wait for you outside this tower." Xiao Guizi said with a smile, while Qi Kongming nodded and followed Ying Lao into the Scripture Deposit Tower.
Xiao Guizi breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the door closed.
Come on, I have to suffer here again.
At this moment, Qi Kongming had already seen a dazzling array of books stored in the tower, and this was only the first floor.
"I wonder what book you want to read?" Mr. Ying asked, holding two beads in one hand.
Qi Kongming thought for a moment and then said: "The kind of books that record royal affairs."
Upon hearing this, Mr. Ying said: "I understand, Living Note, please follow me to the third floor."
After saying that, Mr. Ying waved his hand again and the two of them were teleported directly to the third floor.
He pointed to all the books on the third floor and said: "These are the royal notes on daily life."
"So many?" Qi Kongming looked at the vast sea of books and couldn't help but feel a little numb.
"Not much, not much." Mr. Ying just smiled slightly.
Qi Kongming sighed and began to look up these daily notes.
Time also passed bit by bit during this review.
When night fell, Qi Kongming was still on the third floor diligently checking the daily notes. Ying Ying had gone to nowhere long ago.
Looking at the present, Qi Kongming discovered that every generation of Yanhua Kingdom's leader did not even have a concubine before he had a queen. Even after marrying the queen, there were few concubines. Many of the concubines were obtained by the queen at the request of the king.
Is this considered royal affection?
Thinking of this, Qi Kongming couldn't help but smile. I would still think about such insignificant things. Aren't I mainly looking for clues now?
Qi Kongming calmed down and continued to check his daily notes.
etc!
Qi Kongming suddenly discovered that before marrying the queen, every generation of kings was just a prince. However, after going through the coming-of-age ceremony, he would marry the queen in just a few days, and then he would take over the position of king.
This is true for every generation, which is a bit abnormal.
"Ying Lao, are you there?" Qi Kongmingfang took down a daily life note and asked softly into the air.
Ying Lao suddenly appeared, rubbed his eyes, yawned, and then asked: "What's the matter?"
"Excuse me, are there any books recording the origins of the queens of each generation of kings?" Qi Kongming asked.
After hearing this, Ying Lao thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "No."
"However, this matter can be regarded as a strange thing in our Yanhua Kingdom. Every king said that the Queen was a folk girl he found during his training, and they were in love with each other."
Ying Lao thought for a while and continued.
"Folk women?" Qi Kongming thought again.
"Where was the coming-of-age ceremony for the king of the country? Why is it not recorded in the daily notes?" Qi Kongming asked again.
"It's strange that you ask about this matter. The coming-of-age ceremony of the king is held in the royal forbidden area, but the coming-of-age ceremony of the rest of the royal family is held in the royal ancestral hall. There are some differences between the two."
"It is said that the royal forbidden area is full of dangers. The coming of age ceremony for the king is to come out of the forbidden area alive, which is success."
Ying Lao replied again.
Upon hearing this, Qi Kongming understood that he must explore this royal forbidden area.
Qi Kongming thought of this and said: "Then please ask Mr. Ying to take me out of this Buddhist scripture tower."
"Oh, boy, are you going to the royal forbidden area?"
"Old man, I advise you not to seek death." Ying Lao advised.
Qi Kongming smiled slightly when he heard this and said: "There is no need to worry, Mr. Ying, I won't be afraid even if I die."
"Hey, good boy, you can go if you want. Why does my old man say this so much?" After saying that, Qi Kongming found himself back in front of the Buddhist Scripture Pagoda.
When he turned around, he saw that Xiao Guizi was already drowsy, leaning against the wall, with her head hanging up and down from time to time.
"Xiao Guizi." Qi Kongming shouted when he saw this.
Xiao Guizi suddenly felt excited. She opened her eyes drowsily and saw Qi Kongming. She immediately became energetic.
"Sir, have you finished reading? I don't know if you have any other instructions?" Xiao Guizi maintained a professional smile like a chamberlain.
"How to get to the royal forbidden area?" Qi Kongming asked.
"The royal forbidden area is..."
"Sir, don't be ridiculous, why are you going to the royal forbidden area? That place is a place of death. Except for the previous kings of the country, everyone who has been there has never survived!" Xiao Guizi became more energetic now.
When Qi Kongming heard this, he became even more curious, and he coaxed: "Don't worry, I'm just watching from a distance, I won't go and die."
"Seriously?" Xiao Guizi looked at Qi Kongming and always felt that the noble man in front of her was coaxing her.
"Don't worry, I won't seek death." Qi Kongming said sincerely.
After hearing this, Xiao Guizi thought for a moment, yes, everyone will cherish their own lives.
The two of them headed to the forbidden royal area that made the people in the palace change their minds after hearing the news.
