Chapter 2707: Finding the notebook

The weather was already cold, and as they entered the tomb, they felt a chill down their spine. The tomb was even more eerie, and you Xiaoke took out a Searchlight to light the path ahead.

The pig had lived here for thousands of years, so it was very familiar with the environment. With the pig leading the way, they didn’t have to worry about any danger.

In fact, Lin Yi didn’t run into any danger the last time he came back. There were traps and hidden weapons along the way, but they were all attracted by Yu Huoxing. These traps were one-time use, and they wouldn’t work after being used.

So very quickly, the three of them arrived at the gate of life and death. The tomb was dark and eerie, but it went smoothly. Boss Bai was very excited-he was prepared, knowing that it was Lin Yi and Xiaoke’s second time, but he didn’t expect it to go so smoothly.

“How should we go now?” Boss Bai asked excitedly.

“This is the gate of death, and inside is the coffin of Zhang Liju’s ancestor, and also the place where the Skybolt pig used to live. There’s nothing inside, and this is where ancestor Zhang Liju stored his stuff. My nine Fu Xi needles and the Qi gathering pill were found here.” “We’ll go look for the items first, and then we’ll pay our respects to Zhang Liju’s ancestor, how about that?”Lin Yi said.

“Alright, I’ll follow your arrangements!” Boss Bai wanted to pay his respects to his ancestors first, but he knew that Lin Yi was worried about his body condition. He wanted to look for the physical book first. In terms of seniority, Lin Yi was Zhang Liju’s disciple, and boss Bai had been his disciple for many generations. Lin Yi respected him as his master, but boss Bai didn’t dare to ask Lin Yi for too much.

“Then let’s go and take a look!” With that, Lin Yi brought boss Bai to the bookshelf they were at before! “Mr. Bai, please take a look at this first,” he said to boss Bai.

Lin Yi had glanced at the shelf quickly, but didn’t find Zhang Liju’s medical notes. He didn’t know if there was a book about Zhang Liju’s strange happenings, but he didn’t have any impression of it.

Boss Bai nodded and started to search the shelves carefully. From the beginning to the end, he didn’t miss the title on the spine of each book. There weren’t many books on the shelf, so it didn’t take boss Bai Long to read from the beginning to the end. After he finished, he shook his head and said,””No, I don’t …”

“Oh, then let’s go to the showroom to take a look!” Lin Yi didn’t have much hope-he was just starting from the beginning.

The group was about to leave when Xiaoke suddenly exclaimed,””Eh?”

“What’s wrong? Xiaoke?” Lin Yi turned around and looked at Yu Xiaoke.

“This bookshelf seems to have been touched by someone!” You Xiaoke pointed at one of the books at the bottom of the shelf.

“What? Someone touched it?” Lin Yi’s hair stood on end as he broke out in cold sweat! Lin Yi was a practitioner and wasn’t afraid of ghosts, but that didn’t mean that this thing didn’t exist. Where did the thing in the Jade come from?

“Yes, I am!” “This shelf must’ve been left untouched for thousands of years,” Xiaoke said seriously,”so there’s a layer of dust on the shelf and spine. But look, under this book …”

Lin Yi and boss Bai bent down at the same time and looked at the book that Yu Xiaoke was pointing at. As expected, there was a trace of movement on the empty space in front of the book. There was a layer of dust everywhere except for the front of the book, which had a vertical groove. Someone must have pulled this book out recently, and the dust was removed …

Boss Bai didn’t mind, but Lin Yi felt a chill down his spine! This ancient tomb … Could it be that someone else had been here before?

This was because the first time he came to the tomb, be it you Xiaoke, old hei, or Yu Huoxing, none of them touched the books on the shelves. Yu Huoxing did look at the names of the books, but he didn’t touch them with his hands. Lin Yi remembered it clearly, but now, one of the books was touched …

Judging from the marks, the book was taken out and put back no more than three months ago. This could be seen from the opportunity on it, so it was impossible for there to be traces of the last time he came. The only explanation was that someone had entered the tomb again, took out the book, and put it back!

But what was the purpose of doing this?

You Xiaoke was panting as well-the only people who knew about the tomb were all sentenced to death, and she and the male thief definitely didn’t come back. Could it be Yu Huoxing or the female thief?

Lin Yi was thinking of Yu Huoxing as well, but this guy was a coward. There was no reason for him to come back alone. Plus, the tomb’s useful items were all taken away last time, what was the point of him coming back?

Lin Yi also heard that Yu Huoxing was locked up by the Hidden House Yu, and he didn’t even have a chance to come out …

“Forget it. Let’s see what kind of book this is first.” Lin Yi said.

Yu Xiaoke took out the book, and Lin Yi had been paying attention to the Jade. Luckily, there was no movement, which meant that there was no danger. Lin Yi was most afraid that the book was a trap set up by someone to lure them in.

It was a book of miracle and miracle written by a wandering doctor, but Lin Yi found something different when he flipped to the first page! It was indeed a “miracle doctor” book, but the blank spaces were filled with handwriting, all of them in small regular script. It was the same handwriting as the personal notes Lin Yi found in Zhang Liju’s previous book. It was clear that this was from Zhang Liju as well!

“This is it! This is the Grandmaster’s book of strange things!” Boss Bai looked at the book in Lin Yi’s hands excitedly, pointing at the words,”The Grandmaster added it to someone else’s book, and gave some of his own opinions. As for the problem of the alchemist’s body, it was first mentioned in this book, so it’s normal for Zhang Liju’s Grandmaster to perfect it after reading it.”

“So that’s how it is. In that case, we really found what we were looking for!” Lin Yi said, stunned as he looked at the book. (To be continued.)
