Since he passed through Qingshi Town not long ago, Zhang San did not feel unfamiliar with Qingye Peak.

And because of the Jin law, as one of the pillar mining industries in Taiping County, the case library should have detailed mine drawings. As long as the drawings are found, combined with the information previously divulged by Wu Tianzhen, it should not be difficult to confirm the location of the tomb.

Before the White Tiger Commander arrived, Dou Su, who had the highest position, naturally had to be responsible for the handover of personnel, and the task of finding the drawings fell on Zhang San.

"Qingyefeng...Qingyefeng, eh~"

Looking at the slightly yellowed scroll above her head, just as Gu Xuanyan was thinking about whether she should show her weak side and call her husband to come over for help, she caught a glimpse of Zhang San's sad expression out of the corner of her eye.

The relationship between men and women is sometimes so strange. Once the window paper is broken, they are either strangers or very close.

As they have a marriage contract as a basis, they belong to the latter. It's a pity that because of the ghost plague, the two of them cannot have a decent wedding, which is a bit regrettable.

"Ouch, your little cutie suddenly showed up, tell her you're happy!"

Without giving Zhang San a chance to refuse, Gu Xuanyan pointed at the drawing and said after forcibly smoothing the sad expression on Zhang San's brows with her hand.

“The Qingye Peak mine tunnel is winding, but according to the information Wu Tianzhen provided, the location of the tunnel should be in Jiazi No. 3 area. And from his description, the situation of the Nine Dragons Pulling Coffin has not yet been fully formed. Otherwise, with their cultivation level, so many people would never have escaped.

With Commander White Tiger in charge, and so many good men like you, this should be a sure win. Why do you seem so pessimistic?

Be obedient and give your little cutie a smile, okay?"

If it were someone else, Zhang San would naturally not bother to consider the other person's feelings, but if the person was Gu Xuanyan, no matter how complicated the situation was, Zhang San would compromise.

It's just that his smile at this moment seemed very awkward.

"What? Your smile is so forced~"

Like men, women also lack a sense of security, especially after experiencing what happened last night, this uneasiness is often infinitely magnified.

After trying hard to lean into Zhang San's arms, Gu Xuanyan asked seriously.

"What's wrong?"

"Because of the logical integrity, a lie that is nine out of ten true and one out of ten false is the most difficult to expose. This is also the reason why I was deceived by him in the first place. However, there is one thing I have never figured out from beginning to end.

According to Wu Tianzhen's explanation, the purpose of the "occupying the magpie's nest" is to use the fortune of the tomb owner to support oneself, and it also has the meaning of preventing theft. However, in a coffin from the Eastern Jin Dynasty, there are burial objects from the Zhizheng period of the Yuan Dynasty. Isn't this a bit..."

"…It feels like there is something fishy going on here."

Attachment does not mean that one's IQ has dropped. Zhang San only gave a slight reminder, and Gu Xuanyan understood the essence of it.

“Judging from the attitude of the ghost general in pursuing the murderer, the possibility of problems within the team is not great, so you mean that someone is deliberately exposing the other party’s identity?

But why would he do this? If he was just a knight, wouldn't it be quicker to report the crime directly?"

After hearing Gu Xuanyan's explanation, Zhang San nodded secretly. Without the support of other information, this was also what confused him.

Perhaps it was the other person's beautiful hair that made Zhang San itchy. Just when he turned his head away and was about to calm down, a special building came into his sight and brought him back to reality.

"How is Chenghuang Temple doing lately?"

City God Temple. From the moment he set foot in Taiping County, Zhang San planned to pay a visit. However, due to one accident after another, he missed the opportunity again and again.

After a long time, even Zhang San himself began to ignore this place.

No, it seems that it is not that he ignored this place, but that the presence of the City God Temple itself was invisibly reduced. This weird feeling is like looking at the underworld.

Even with the blessing of the memory palace, if it weren't for the previous glimpse, he would probably have forgotten about the City God Temple again.

"?"

Even with Zhang San's level of cultivation, he would be affected by this, so Gu Xuanyan would naturally be no exception.

"Haven't we been there before? There were a lot of incense burning, a lot of people talking, and a happy scene. It's only been a short time since that happened. How could you have forgotten it so quickly?"

how long?

Seeing that Gu Xuanyan's memory of the City God Temple was frozen fifteen days ago, in order to avoid the other party panicking, Zhang San did not point it out directly, but instead shifted the topic to another direction.

However, he did have some idea about this sudden ghost plague.

Due to the restrictions of national policy, no matter how brutal the Jin Dynasty is, they will not choose to sacrifice the people. This can be easily seen from the transfer of commanders and the active cooperation of the Jingye Division in various places.

After ruling out the involvement of the Da Jin, Zhang San couldn't think of any other force that could use the disaster-level combat power as bait, except for the mastermind entrenched in Zhenjiang Prefecture.

But no matter what their purpose is, no matter what they want to do, when they extend their claws to Taiping County, they must be prepared to be chopped off.

The Infinite City in the Memory Palace was constantly integrated and arranged. After a quarter of an hour, Zhang San finally spoke softly.

"Help me check something. From the bloodbath at Taiping Guard to the current ghost plague incident, whether it was suicide or homicide, find all the murder files that occurred in Taiping County.

By the way, you can go to the place where Fayan lived before his death. You may find something special there. But a friendly reminder, your life may be in danger."

Hearing Zhang San's words, Gu Xuanyan first rolled her eyes at him, then gnashed her little fangs and expressed something rather unkind.

"Is there any husband like you? Wait, you are not going to kill your little cutie and then take all the property of my Gu family to support other women, right? I am so miserable, wuwuwu~"

There was a lot of hostility in her words, but from the sound of her heartbeat, all Zhang San heard was excitement.

"I'm sure you've figured it out. I've been a little busy lately, and I was afraid you'd be bored, so I wanted to find something fun for you."

"Can I refuse?"

"Of course... no!"

A passive and escapist office worker, a knight who slays evil spirits, a champion who gains both fame and fortune, a spirited young man, and a king who unifies the troubled times.

In this world, it is rare to find someone with more experience than Zhang San. It is precisely because of this experience that Zhang San can see his true nature and point directly to the origin of the Tao.

But this is not the case with Gu Xuanyan. If you wear the mask for too long, it will be difficult to take it off. As a fellow patient, Zhang San will naturally not let her go astray.

Compromise is not the goal. There is a special feeling between husband and wife. But before Gu Xuanyan could express her attitude, Zhao Zhen's voice interrupted the romance between them.

"Sir, everyone is here. Master Dousu will let you pass."
