"It's been abandoned for at least thirty years?" Shen Haolin looked at Shen Cha, then at Xue Ruitian, and said, "Has it really been abandoned for thirty years?"

"Haolin, you mean, old lady."

"No, it has nothing to do with the old lady. The last time she went out to sea was when she was young. It has been at least thirty or forty years since then. Maybe it was really a deserted island at that time, but it may not be the case now." Shen Haolin raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a mocking smile. "Thirty or forty years ago, the Qinglian Sect was still very popular. It was in its heyday. There was no need for it to hide like a stray dog, or even hide at sea."

"Your Majesty is right. I have heard some rumors about this person." Xiao Fengqi saw that everyone was looking at him, and waved his hand gently. "I heard it from the elders at home. I just told it as a joke. A long time ago, about thirty or forty years ago, a young monk once came to Linhuang Mansion, accompanied by several confidants. They booked the best floor of the most expensive and luxurious inn in Linhuang Mansion. They didn't look like monks at all, but rather some nobleman. They stayed there for about ten days, and every day they went to the mansions of the nobles and important officials in the North and South Courts to beg for alms, but..."

"Begging for alms?" Xue Ruitian raised his eyebrows. "They can book such an expensive inn, and they still want to beg for alms? No one will believe it, right?"

"They weren't really begging for alms, they were just trying to use this to infiltrate the Liao Kingdom." Xiao Fengqi looked at them, "This was also speculated later, but at that time no one let them in." He sneered, "Coincidentally, the people whose homes were confiscated this time were all people who had contact with them before."

"That is to say, maybe from that time, without anyone knowing, they were in contact, right?"

"Yes!" Xiao Fengqi nodded. "I asked my dear uncle and aunts, they had contact with that place a long time ago, but they refused to say more. It doesn't matter if they don't want to say it. It won't hinder what we are going to do."

"That's right." Shen Cha thought for a moment, then looked at the map on the table and pointed at the sun mark. "Is this on the entire chart, or is this the only one and there are no other ones?"

"If I remember correctly, there should be one in each of the east, west, south and north." Xiao Fengqi looked at the sun and asked, "What do you think, General?"

"A cunning rabbit has three burrows."

"It seems that we have the same idea. We infer that this sun mark represents Master Falian. We think these places should be the locations of the person behind the scenes. But after hearing the old lady say that it is a deserted island, I am a little hesitant."

"Master Falian is meticulous, suspicious, and cunning. Even if he is at sea, he cannot have only one hiding place. He must have arranged many places for himself to prevent someone from finding his residence and doing harm to him." Shen Haolin tapped the scroll on the table lightly and pointed at the location marked by the sun. "Although the old lady said that this is a deserted island, according to my judgment, this so-called deserted island is most likely an illusion."

"It might have been true when the old lady saw it, but if it still looks like a deserted island now," Shen Cha paused and looked at everyone, "it's very likely an illusion."

"Whether it's true or not, we have no way to confirm it, right?" Xue Ruitian touched his chin, "No one has been out to sea recently, someone may give us an answer."

"Hmm!" Shen Haolin and Shen Cha looked at each other. "When he comes back, he should pass by those places. Given his style, if he sees a deserted island, he will most likely go and take a look."

"I think so too." Shen Cha nodded and smiled helplessly, "This time he owes us a favor. We were the ones who rescued him, right?" Shen Haolin smiled and nodded gently.

Xiao Fengqi did not interrupt them when they were talking. He was not very curious about who the person they were talking about was. From what they said, this person would probably come to the border in a few days, and they would know then.

"Whether this sun mark belongs to Master Falian or not, we can put it aside for now." Jin Miaomiao pointed at the triangular and trapezoidal marks, "I have a question, how do you determine that these belong to restaurants or restaurants?" Jin Miaomiao thought for a while and said, "This is not a very serious account book, but a mark. I think this is more like someone somewhere. This person may be in charge of the sale of Forget Worry Powder or the collection of raw materials in this place, rather than a specific restaurant, restaurant or farmer." She raised her head and looked at everyone, "What do you think?"

"Yes, you and I are thinking the same thing." Shen Cha nodded towards Jin Miaomiao, confirming her idea. "It is very likely that this mark specifically refers to a person in Chaozhou, who is responsible for Chaozhou's business. The Forget Worry Powder in their place is designated to this person to sell, so it shouldn't be a specific one." She looked at Shen Haolin and Xue Ruitian, "Is that right?"

"Yeah!" The two nodded at the same time, "That makes sense."

Xiao Fengqi looked at them, chuckled, and clapped his hands, "I'll leave this scroll to you. You can study it carefully. My mission today is also completed."

"Thank you for your hard work." Shen Haolin nodded at him. "We will go over to see Uncle and the old lady later. Please remind them to get more rest."

"Don't worry, I'm always watching!"

"Okay." Shen Cha nodded. "There is one more thing. The two Yelu masters just sent a letter saying that Wanyan Qingmu did not cross the border to Linhuang Prefecture. It was the Japanese who crossed the border. They have already captured several batches of Japanese."

"Japanese?" Xiao Fengqi raised his eyebrows, "Are they also going to look for Wanyan Qingmu?" Seeing Shen Cha nod, he shook his head helplessly, "I'm afraid these two young masters are going to take action. The arrival of the Japanese has given them a good excuse."

"You know?" Xue Ruitian was stunned. "You"

"Of course, this is what we have discussed. Since those elders want to continue to be loyal to the late king, we are embarrassed to refuse them. Let them go to that distant place to continue the relationship between the late king and his subjects." Xiao Fengqi smiled, "Lord Qi and Master Nan are worried that little brother Qi will be hurt in the process, and they are also worried that the old uncle will be stimulated at his age. It happened that the Duke, the Marquis and the General invited the old uncle to stay at the border for a while, so we just brought him here."

"That's why you said you wanted to bother me for a while longer, right?"

"The general is wise, that's exactly it!"
