Recently, many deceased people from Huangquan Kingdom have appeared in the city, and more and more people are worshiping them.

At the end of the field of vision is a large mountain with hazy shadows.

It is the "Bai Ri Sacred Mountain", one of the three sacred mountains in Shanyin. Even at night, you can see the majestic mountain and the white snow on the peak. Those built against the mountain have white walls and green tile roofs.

The palace complex is the imperial residence where the divine royal family lives.

The two didn't speak for a long time, their eyes reflecting the scene in the city.

Suddenly, a paper crane flew in the sky.

Senjo stretched out his hand to catch the paper crane and said, "Miss Miko is here."

Su Lun looked down and saw several figures approaching quickly.

A few guards stayed below, and a figure in white clothes ran up to the roof. After a closer look, it turned out to be Mitsuo Oko, a woman disguised as a man.

When Miko saw the two people sitting on the ridge of the roof, she sat next to Senjo without saying anything, "Hey, Sister Senjo and Mr. Su Lun found a place with a good view."

Qian Jiao pursed his lips and said, "Su Lun found it."

As she spoke, she hooked Yuzi's shoulder and said, "Miss Yuzi, Su Lun wants to live with you for a few days. I ask you if you are willing."

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere instantly became very strange.

Su Lun glanced at her, dumbfounded.

It means that even though that’s what it means, when the words come out of Senjou’s mouth, it doesn’t taste right.

Fortunately, Miko has become very familiar with them these days. When she heard Qian Jiao's words, she automatically threw out those jokes and immediately understood the meaning of these words, "How many days does Mr. Su Lun want to live in the emperor?"

She showed the warm and hospitable smile of a host and asked and answered herself: "Of course you can!"

"Um."

Su Lun also nodded and expressed his thoughts, "I want to stay in the royal library for a few days and read Shanyin's classics. I don't know if it is convenient for Miss Miko."

"Of course it's convenient."

Yuzi said happily: "There are indeed many secret books in the library. Mr. Su Lun likes to study so much, he will definitely not be disappointed."

These people were no longer strangers, and Su Lun was not overly polite and said with a smile: "Then I will cause trouble for you."

Yuzi disagreed, "It's not really a trouble."

Senjo on the side seemed to feel that the mission of his existence was completed, and muttered: "Then you talk slowly, I will not accompany you anymore."

Hearing this, Miko looked at Senjo and said in surprise: "Sister Senjo, aren't you going?"

Qian Jiao was someone who couldn't sit still, and said with a bored expression: "There are so many rules in the Imperial Palace, what's the point? I don't want to be locked up there."

With that said, she stood up and jumped down without looking back, "Okay, you two go and have a good chat, I'll leave first!"

Looking again, in the blink of an eye, the person had disappeared into the alley.

Su Lun: ""

Yuzi: ""

The two people on the roof looked at each other, both looking dumbfounded.

Yuzi stood up and bowed slightly: "Mr. Su Lun, let's go."

Su Lun followed Miko to the imperial palace at the foot of the "Bairi Sacred Mountain".

As expected of a princess, there were many guards around her in Edo City. Along the way, Su Lun also noticed many masters among the various secret guards.

Su Lun just wanted to find a place where he would not be disturbed to do his own research and read books. Naturally, he did not want to meet any royal figures. Those red tapes and useless social interactions were not enough for him to do two more alchemy experiments.

more meaningful.

Yuzi also knew what he was thinking, so he didn't inform anyone else and took Su Lun all the way across the moat and into the palace surrounded by white walls.

The two quietly entered the imperial palace.

The area of ​​the palace complex is not too big, and there are outer gardens and imperial gardens. The imperial garden is where the emperor lives and is heavily guarded. It would be troublesome to go in to pay homage, so Su Lun didn't want to go. He wanted to go to the library in the eastern outer garden, which is also a building.

A four-story building with a green tile roof.

After entering the palace, the guards dispersed somewhat.

Miko's status is very special. Not only is she an imperial daughter, but she is also a king, and she has great rights.

I led someone into the palace, but no one came to ask.

She was like a competent little tour guide, introducing her home.

The two passed through a garden with a green lotus pond and large cherry blossom trees. I don't know what method was used to create a charming scene full of spring in the garden, which was in full bloom.

The buildings in the Imperial Palace are decorated with carved beams and painted beams, and the wooden construction craftsmanship is achieved to the extreme, making it a pleasure to see.

Yuzi led Su Lun on the stone slabs in the garden. She pointed to the building next to the library and said, "That's the royal treasure house."

"oh?"

Su Lun looked at the small building that looked like a museum. Looking over it casually, he saw a set of famous Warring States armors stored in a glass cabinet. The royal family's collection was naturally extremely luxurious, and almost the best of the entire Shanyin were gathered here.

's secret treasure.

The two of them walked and chatted.

Su Lun also gave Miko a brief introduction to some of his opinions, such as industry and social development. The current situation in Shanyin is very complicated and it is also the general trend.

However, there is a certain conflict between a technological society and a theocratic society, so he didn't say much, just a few reminders as a friend.

Miko may know the situation better than him.

While chatting, the two of them walked into the library.

The building was very dry, and whale oil lamps were hung on the beams, making it bright even at night.

The two of them turned a corridor and saw a dense collection of various classics.

Miko introduced: "On the first floor are some classics collected by the people; on the second floor are some orphan and rare books; on the third floor are various secrets, ninjutsu, and onmyoji; on the fourth floor are the royal secrets. If you want to go to the fourth floor, it is

I need permission from my father, because many books about gods are not allowed to be read by people other than the Shenfu clan."

As she said that, she smiled slightly: "However, if Mr. Su Lun wants to go up, I will be in the palace these days and can accompany you up."

Su Lun listened and responded: "Then I'd like to trouble Miss Yuzi. I just want to know something about Yamagakure. If it's a too sensitive classic, there's no need to read it."

It is already a great honor to be taken by the majestic princess to visit the royal collection, and he will not push too far.

What's more, there are so many classics on the third floor that it would take many years to read them all.

After listening, Yuzi smiled slightly, the two of them were already very familiar with this way of getting along.

She added: "Unfortunately, the library was burned down and many classics are missing."

Su Lun was also a little surprised, "Has this place been burned?"

There are many masters in the palace. Even if there is a fire, if you use the "Water Release Ninjutsu" to extinguish the fire within minutes, will it still burn?

"Yes, it is burned almost every one or two hundred years."

Yuzi said, seeming to know what was strange about Su Lun, and added: "In fact, it is not all accidents. Some fires are the will of the gods. The content of some words will offend the majesty of the gods, or they should not be spread.

Naturally, it cannot be left in the world."

"oh."

Su Lun listened with an enlightened expression on his face.

At the same time, he also thought of what Mr. Jing said before, that certain knowledge in human beings will be erased and blocked by higher gods. Is this an example?

The two of them didn't stay any longer on the first floor and climbed up the wooden stairs to the second floor.

This floor contains mostly orphan books and manuscripts, and even transcripts cannot be purchased outside.

Su Lun's eyes were like lightning, and he quickly scanned the labels on the bookshelf. His eyesight and brain development were extremely high, and he could roughly understand what books were there at a glance.

What he saw made him slightly confused, "Miss Miko, is there a manuscript by the great writer Fujiwara Hayato?"

"Of course there is."

Miko clapped her hands.

At this time, someone in the attic immediately responded: "Reporting to Your Highness the Princess, Hayato Fujiwara's manuscript was borrowed by the Minister of Military and Aircraft Kazuo Hojo two days ago. There is only the transcript of the ninth year of Taihe in the library. It is in the thirteenth cabinet in the west."

Yuzi listened and nodded: "Yes. You go ahead."

Su Lun was not surprised, because he just scanned the bookshelf with the label "Fujiwara Hayato" and it was empty.

He suddenly thought of Katyusha's grandma. That old man had really great energy. Someone from the Imperial Library had taken out things for her in advance.

Su Lun didn't say much. Manuscripts, transcripts, etc., made no difference to him.

At this time, he remembered the words of the previous bookstore owner and asked: "By the way, does Miss Miko know Sensoji Temple? I heard that Mr. Fujiwara ended up being a Buddhist monk in that temple?"

Miko nodded: "Of course I know. The history of Sensoji Temple is earlier than Edo Castle. It is said that the 'Yamata no Orochi' is sealed there."

Su Lun asked: "Yama no Orochi? Did that monster in myths and legends really exist?"

Even though I asked this question, this is a mythical creature. Counting time, it is still a monster of Amaterasu's era, and there is a high probability that it does not exist.
