Dali Temple Conspiracy Records

Chapter 128 Time Point

"I'm going to Wannian County, you rest first." After Li Quan finished speaking, he walked away quickly.

Bai Sanxiu froze for a moment, shrugged, turned around and went to the housekeeper to borrow a little donkey, and went out too.Since Li Quan doesn't need her company, she can just go to Xishi.

After finding the moth bookstore with ease and familiarity, the boss didn't show any familiarity, at least he wasn't so wary of her.

"What is the girl looking for?"

"I want to ask the boss, the "Secret Art Collection" I bought last time, does the boss know the source? Who made it?"

The boss's answer was very short: "I don't know."

Bai Sanxiu asked again: "Then where did you get this book?"

This time the boss didn't try to be perfunctory anymore, he recalled it, and said: "About a month or so ago when the girl came to look for books, someone came to sell old books, and "Secret Art Collection" is one of them."

"Who is the book seller?"

"No, I don't care."

"What does it look like?"

"forget."

Although Bai Sanxiu was still a little unwilling to give up, but after thinking for a while, he really had nothing to ask.And the shopkeeper had already lowered her head and continued to flip through the book without raising her eyelids, so she had no choice but to ask the boss to continue to pay attention to the relevant books, and leave.

On the way back to Jishitang, she calculated that when the boss bought the batch of old books, they had not set off to return to Chang'an.She was in a coma at that time, Li Quan was preparing to return to Beijing, and Yan Jin was in charge of sorting out the documents and files.It seems that in terms of time, there is nothing to doubt.

But that book... She didn't study the book editions, so she could only tell that although the book was not new, it was not particularly old and damaged, and it was definitely not an ancient book.Last time I came to the boss, I also said that this book is a second compilation of excerpts, that is to say, the records in the book are also collected from various places.

Therefore, she originally wanted to see if she could ask for information about the author or book seller, and continue to trace the source of the information. Since the boss didn't gain anything, she had to find another way.

In fact, if it was Li Quan, she must have more ideas for inquiry, but she has no plans to tell him her doubts about this book for the time being.

He wandered back to Gu's house, but Li Quan hadn't come back yet.Bai Sanxiu didn't have to cook to prepare dinner, she had nothing to do, so she simply went to Jishitang to pass the time.As the trouble caused by the talismans subsided, the passenger flow of Jishitang was slowly returning to normal.

A few days ago, I took the interview notes, and Bai Sanxiu was already familiar with the doctor, pharmacist, apprentice and others in Jishitang. Now that I met her, everyone also turned away and chatted with her naturally.

"Hey, it's really not easy for the third young master. He wants to make Ji Shitang more prosperous, but the one on the left and the other on the right don't let him worry about it."

"Isn't that right? Or would he, who used to be a teetotaler, start drinking to relieve his worries? Wow!"

Bai Sanxiu said casually: "So he doesn't drink?"

"Yeah!" an old doctor sighed, "I also watched a few children grow up. After the third child was adopted by Lao Gu, he was grateful and really interested in medical skills. He worked hard all day. Studying medicine has become an idiot. If it wasn’t for the fact that the eldest and second child didn’t live up to expectations, he wouldn’t need him to take care of the house. There are too many things on my mind, so I’ll drink it slowly.”

She can still understand that the boss is incompetent, "The matter of the second son...does everyone know?"

"That's not true. Before the third child was in charge, Lao Gu also let the second child be the housekeeper. After all, he was his own son! It turned out that the second child was also unable to settle accounts, so he let the third child decide. Who knew that he was still in the house?" The pharmacy steals scales and resells them, hey!"

"When did that happen?"

"More than two years ago! The third brother also started drinking at that time. Now that I think about it, I understand. On the one hand, the eldest brother is asking for money, and on the other hand, the second brother is selling it secretly. No wonder the third brother is worried."

Why was it two years ago?Could this be the reason why Gu Chengzhu started poisoning, because Gu Xinrong handed over the power to Gu Mingyuan?
Subconsciously, Bai Sanxiu felt that he had grasped a thread of thought, but when he tried to dig deeper, he couldn't explain it clearly.
