Chapter 198
Chapter 198 - I will Only Tell Young Master
The Depository of Buddhist Scriptures was located on the topmost floor of the entire palace. It was not damaged by the cave-in, and its security measures were very strict. As such, it was the most well-preserved part of the palace, and there was basically no damage at all.
The structure of this place was very complicated. It was like a huge Magic Cube. Not only was the door locked by the mechanism, but the internal structure also reminded Guo Fan of a horror film called the Forest Hut.
All the documents regarding mechanical techniques and the results of their research were as vast as the sea. They were all categorized and placed in different individual library rooms. Between the complicated passageways, the people had to “move” the library that they needed.
As the designer of the Puppet Master, this kind of design was definitely convenient for him. He could obtain whatever information he wanted, but for others, it was a huge problem.
Putting aside the control of the mechanism technique, just finding the key information and storing it in the room was a huge problem.
If it wasn't for the existence of a bug like Qingfu, another group of people would come in. Even if they held the book and had great talent, it would probably take them at least several months to barely have a superficial understanding of the mechanisms… After all, this was the Puppet Master that the person who could create a doll like Qingfu had learned throughout her lifetime.
This level of understanding was simply impossible to decipher the mechanism outside the Scripture Pavilion. It could be said that one would die before he could even succeed in his apprenticeship. The Bureau Chief was a hero with tears streaming down his face.
But now, even though they had overcome the first obstacle, their group was still stuck on how to find the information.
Qingfu flipped through the book left behind by the Puppet Master but still did not find any clues. The matter fell into a deadlock for a moment.
“It can't be that we can try one by one…”
Guo Fan raised his head and looked at the entire Scripture Pavilion that was in a hollow cylindrical shape. There were countless square boxes in the room that were arranged in an orderly fashion.
The scene that appeared here was like a large library. It could be seen that the Martial Emperor and the Puppet Master had really expended a great deal of effort. There was still a long period of time before they were able to accumulate such a huge amount of information.
“Qingfu, take a look at the rooms nearby and see if there are any clues. If you can find the library where the Purification Scripture is, the rest of you… take a rest on the spot.”
This place was much safer than the front. There was an organic barrier outside that prevented the Strange Beast from entering. Moreover, it was also quiet inside. Compared to before, it was really like a safe house, making one feel at ease.
Guo Fan was really helpless. They were not on an outing right now. It felt strange to sit down and rest like a primary school student having a meal, but there was no other way. After all, they could not understand the content of the mechanisms. They could not help even if they wanted to.
As for the Purification Scripture and so on, it was an alias that Guo Fan randomly fabricated.
After Hee Junhao and his Puppet Master wife researched the cultivation method that could reverse the natural endowment of the human body, they did not give it a name because it was only a semi-finished product in the experimental stage.
However, since both of them had died, according to the usual practice of people who had discovered something, they could give it a name. Guo Fan named the cultivation method by himself.
As for why it was Purification, firstly, it was used to wash the points, and secondly, Guo Fan would always think of the legendary martial arts technique, the Body Metamorphose Scripture, so he might as well call it the Purification Scripture.
This name was surprisingly simple and matched with the actual content of the cultivation technique. Everyone present expressed their approval.
Everyone sat down and rested for a moment. The two little foxes secretly rubbed and ran to speak to Yijun. It was unknown what they wanted to do, but just as Guo Fan was about to eavesdrop, he was suddenly pulled by someone and pulled his clothes.
He turned his head and saw Hee Mengyao.
The woman's sitting posture was very obedient. She knelt in a standard manner and her skirt was meticulously pulled to the side of her legs. She withdrew her pair of white jade-like hands and placed them on her knees. She lowered her head slightly shyly. Her expression was somewhat embarrassed. Because the journey was a little dangerous, her long black hair hung down. The dress fell on his full chest.
Fortunately, the floor of the library was also very clean because it was well-preserved. Otherwise, it would always make people feel ashamed of the beautiful jade that was covered in dust.
She obediently followed along the way, although she looked delicate and weak. In reality, she did not complain or cause any trouble on the way. Most of the time, she hid by Guo Fan's side and bit her lower lip without saying a word. Only when she was afraid would she pull Guo Fan's clothes harder.
Whenever this happened, Guo Fan would pat her hand to comfort her, and then he would simply pull her away.
Although it was said that men and women should not touch, Hee Mengyao's face was red. She did not struggle or oppose it. It was equivalent to acquiescence. Under such circumstances, Guo Fan did not care about whether or not he would take advantage of her. After all, it was more important to protect it.
At this moment.
The woman's fair and beautiful face revealed a trace of hesitation.
“What's wrong? Is there something you want to tell me?” Guo Fan's voice became softer. This descendant of the Martial Emperor of the Shang Jia Family was always shy and timid, and no one could use a serious tone to speak.
In the past, when he hadn't transmigrated, he was still an otaku, Guo Fan. He usually looked down on this kind of delicate and pitiful woman. He only knew how to say Guna in his heart. Don't mess with me if you want to suck up to a woman. Don't disturb me while I play games.
However, ever since the wife of the paper man changed, he had become really fragrant.
Of course, a wife and Hee Mengyao, who were strangers to each other, couldn't be mixed up. But first of all, Hee Mengyao's temperament was natural and natural. She was naturally shy and timid. She was not pretentious. Secondly, she was indeed beautiful. She was as beautiful as jade. Hence, she was patient enough.
Hee Mengyao's face turned slightly red and then she said in a low voice, “I might have some clues… Regarding the Purification Scripture.”
Guo Fan was somewhat surprised. The others also looked over when they heard this, causing Hee Mengyao to hide behind Guo Fan with some fear, only revealing half of her face.
Her voice was as soft as a mosquito, “I will only tell Young Master.”
When she said this, it attracted some strange gazes.
Her words undoubtedly seemed inappropriate. After all, the two of them were now working together. In this way, it was as if they were hiding something.
Dong Yuan chuckled and said, “Those who are able to enter the Martial Monarch Cave must have their own ways. It is best that Miss Mengyao has clues. It is also human nature to have things that cannot be said. What's there to be surprised about?”
His tone was warm and casual, but as he spoke, he gave a warning look behind him.
Dong Yuan's action was undoubtedly showing goodwill to Guo Fan. He had already made up his mind. Even if this mission failed, if he befriended someone like Guo Fan, the value would be much higher than the mission reward.
The group of idiots behind him were ignorant people who could not see the benefits and long-term benefits in front of them.
