Chapter 1097 Idle People of the Song Dynasty 16
Needless to say, Kaifeng Prefecture was very efficient. The next day, Liu Shu and Bai Yuting got clues about the ruined temple.

The dilapidated temple has been abandoned for more than ten years.

It is said that every night, strange noises were heard in the temple, and the monks at the time could not find the source of the noises.

People thought it was caused by ghosts, so the monks moved out of the temple and it became abandoned.

As for the murals, they appeared before the temple was abandoned, but it is impossible to find out who painted them.

Liu Shu: "Those strange noises should come from the people in the murals."

Others think so too.

But the main question now is, who painted the mural?
Liu Shu asked Lord Bao: "Lord Bao, do you know whether the antique pen is already in the palace or was it sent to the palace in the past ten years?"

Mr. Bao: "It was a tribute from Huzhou three years ago."

Liu Shu: "Huzhou?"

Lord Gongsun: "I have sent people to Huzhou to investigate."

Liu Shu gave Mr. Gongsun a thumbs up.

As expected, he is Mr. Gongsun.

In fact, Liu Shu is fully capable of destroying the mural and rescuing Zhan Zhao from it.

But he didn't want to destroy the mural.

Regardless of the existence of the stolen antique pen or the villagers in the mural, everyone hopes that the mural will be in good condition.

Liu Shu and Bai Yutang came to the ruined temple again.

Bai Yutang told the little figure of Zhan Zhao in the mural about the clues of their investigation.

Zhan Zhao picked up a brush, wrote down what he knew on a piece of paper, and held it up for Liu Shu and Bai Yutang to see.

Although those words were ten times smaller than those of an ant, Liu Shu and Bai Wuye had sharp eyes and could still see clearly what was written on them if they looked carefully.

Zhan Zhao followed the clues and came to this dilapidated temple, where he saw a very beautiful woman.

It is impossible for Lord Zhan to fall into a beauty trap. After all, he has encountered too many beauty traps.

When Lord Zhan saw a beautiful woman appear in a dilapidated temple in the wilderness, his first reaction was to be wary.

But the problem is, if he is on guard like a human, then the beauty will definitely not be able to ambush Zhan Zhao.

But this beauty was not a human. She suddenly disappeared in front of Zhan Zhao.

Zhan Zhao was so shocked that he didn't notice the beauty's sneak attack and was dragged into the mural.

The environment changed suddenly. Zhan Zhao thought it was an illusion at first, but after interacting with the villagers, he found that they were all alive.

Zhan Zhao found that he could walk out of the village, but except for the mountains in the distance, everything else was gray and he could not set foot inside.

Just as he was wondering where he had ended up, he heard the voices of Bai Yutang and Liu Shu.

At first the sound was very small and could not be heard at all unless one listened carefully.

Zhan Zhao had been concentrating and on guard, and with the sharp five senses of a warrior, he was able to hear the sound which was not much louder than the flapping of a mosquito's wings.

Later, Bai Yutang and Liu Shu discovered him and came closer to the mural to talk. Only then could he hear their voices clearly.

"Beauty? What does she look like?"

Zhan Zhao gave the two men a detailed description, and they took note of the woman's appearance.

After talking for a while and finding no other clues, Liu Shu, Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao said goodbye and left the ruined temple.

The two men came to the foot of the mountain and found that there were two villages surrounding the mountain, so they went to each village to inquire about the news.

The information about the temple that the villagers knew was similar to what the people in Kaifeng Prefecture had found out, except that what they said was even more exaggerated.

Everyone believed that there were ghosts and monsters in the temple, so people living at the foot of the mountain did not dare to go up the mountain.

Even if you want to go to the mountain to chop firewood, you only dare to go near the foot of the mountain, and never near the middle of the mountain.

"The thing about the female ghost in the temple..." said an old man in his 40s or 50s, "I went into the mountains to chop wood and accidentally walked too far. When I was almost halfway up the mountain, I saw a female ghost in white clothes floating past me. I was so scared that I ran away quickly. Fortunately, my legs and feet were still agile, so I was not caught by the female ghost."

Liu Shu: "Did you see clearly what the female ghost looks like?"

The old man said: "I was so scared that I lost my soul. How could I dare to look at what the female ghost looks like?"

Liu Shu asked other people and they all gave different answers.

Some said it was a female ghost, some said it was a little ghost, some said it was an old woman...

It’s not as reliable as what the first old man said.

Liu Shu left the village and was about to meet up with Bai Yutang when he suddenly heard the sound of a flute coming from afar.

The flute sounds melodious, the person playing the flute must be a master.

Liu Shu walked towards the sound of the flute.

A bamboo forest appeared before my eyes.

Looking up, I saw a young man in a green robe standing on the top of a bamboo tree playing a flute.

The man is handsome and has an extraordinary temperament, which makes people feel good about him at first sight.

Liu Shu stood under the tree listening to the flute music without disturbing the man.

After a while, Bai Yutang also came over following the sound, stood beside Liu Shu, and listened to the man playing the flute together.

After a long while, the man stopped playing, jumped down from above and saluted the two men.

"You two are polite."

Bai Yutang had a good impression of this man. He clasped his fists and said, "My name is Bai Yutang. May I know your name? You are very elegant and not like an ordinary person. I really want to be friends with you."

This man was also straightforward, and said with a smile: "So it's Master Bai Wu. My name is Guan Ruoxu, and I'm honored to be friends with Master Bai Wu."

Liu Shu also bowed: "I am Liu Shu."

Bai Yutang was very happy to meet a new friend and said to Guan Ruoxu, "If I didn't have to rescue Zhan Xiaomao quickly, I would definitely drag you out to drink three hundred cups."

He saw a jade wine gourd hanging around Guan Ruoxu's waist and knew that this man was a wine lover. And coincidentally, Fifth Master also loved wine!
Wu Ye felt that Guan Ruoxu was really to his liking.

Guan Ruoxu: "But is it Lord Zhan from Kaifeng Prefecture? What happened to him? Does he need my help?"

Seeing that Guan Ruoxu can stand on top of the bamboo, we know that this person has very advanced lightness skills and his martial arts skills should also be quite good. If he can help, he will be a good helper.

But his appearance was too coincidental. Although Master Bai Wu admired this man, he did not lower his guard.

Therefore, when Master Bai Wu was about to refuse, Liu Shu spoke up: "It's great that Brother Guan can help."

Bai Yutang looked at Liu Shu in surprise.

Liu Shu smiled at him and blinked.

Bai Yutang swallowed his words of refusal.

Liu Shu: "Let's find a place to sit down and talk."

Guan Ruoxu: "My residence is not far away, come to my place."

The two men agreed and followed Guan Ruoxu into the bamboo forest.

In the center of the bamboo forest there is a two-story building made of bamboo, where Guan Ruoxu lives.

Bai Yutang scanned the bamboo building and asked, "Was this small building built recently?"

Guan Ruoxu recalled with a sigh: "It has been more than 30 years."

Bai Yutang was surprised: "More than 30 years? How come it still looks so new?"

Guan Ruoxu smiled and did not answer the question.

Liu Shu: "It is supported by immortal magic, so it naturally looks like it was just built."

Guan Ruoxu stared at Liu Shu in surprise.
