Chapter 70 The Secret in the Book
Cheng Shi frowned and thought for a moment, then continued: "You are too general. Mr. Zhang probably didn't investigate afterward!"
Zhang Tingzhong sighed and said in a deep voice: "I have indeed investigated it. Ever since the incident a year and a half ago, I have become interested in that book and the things behind it!
So I spent a lot of energy to investigate and found out that he is related to an organization, but I still don’t know what secrets there are!”
Guangdong and Guangxi, Qing Dynasty organization, secret, Cheng Shi's eyes flashed, he suddenly thought of a possible answer, and said in surprise.
"Could it be some secret from the Little Knife Society?!"
Zhang Ting thought: The other party is indeed powerful enough. If he really exposes this secret, I'm afraid he will be in trouble in the future!
After a while, Zhang Tingzhong said in a deep voice: "Do you know who the knife is composed of?!"
Wen Zuoxuan said excitedly: "For us people in Shanghai, how could anyone not know about the Xiaodao Society? What is the secret in the book?!"
Zhang Tingzhong shook his head and said softly: "I don't know about this. There are very messy words in it. I also based it on the name of the author!
I just found out that this thing is related to the Little Knife Society. The author of the book is dead, and now I have no idea what secrets this book contains!"
When Cheng Shi heard this, he had already roughly guessed what it was, judging from how many people had died in this case!
There is also a password in the book. It should not be a list of members of the Little Sword Society. The most likely thing is that it belongs to the Intelligence Organization of the Little Sword Society!
Because the Little Knife Society has failed and has become a name in history, if this thing was a list, it would have no value at all now!
As for why some people are so interested in this thing from decades ago, it means that it may contain important secrets or valuable things!
Wen Zuoxuan took a few gentle breaths to calm down his excitement, and suddenly chuckled: "Brother Cheng, do you think this will be a fortune that Xiao Dao will leave behind?!"
Cheng Shi was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Who knows, maybe it is!"
Zhang Tingzhong gave a bitter smile and continued: "Whether it is true or not, we may never know, I have now told the secret!
I also hope that Agent Cheng and Brother Wen will not spread this news, I don’t want my peaceful life to become lively in the future!"
Cheng Shi took a deep breath, stared at Zhang Tingzhong tightly, and said in a deep voice: "I won't spread the word, but I hope Mr. Zhang can lend me that book for seven days!"
Zhang Tingzhong didn't have much hope. He knew the other party would say this. He had found many masters in more than a year!
Even though he couldn't figure out anything at all, he was naturally not afraid of the other party seeing it. He smiled and said, "No problem, I just don't know if seven days is enough?!"
When Cheng Shi heard this, he stood up and said seriously: "That's enough. My main purpose is not to decipher its secrets, but to use it as bait!"
What I said just now offended me, and I hope Mr. Zhang can forgive me for my recklessness. Thank you again, Mr. Zhang, for supporting my work!"
"No need!" Zhang Tingzhong waved his hand and chuckled: "I'm just afraid of trouble!"
Wen Zuoxuan on the side smiled and said: "Great, now, Brother Zhang, can you take us to see that book?!"
Zhang Tingzhong couldn't help but show a trace of embarrassment on his face. You must know that he didn't hide this book in a secret place!
After the theft happened, he stored the book in an extremely secret location, and even he himself didn't go there often!
Apart from him, Su Qiong was the only one who knew the secret, but even Su Qiong had never gone in!
Suqiong is his wife, and the two have just gotten married, and the wife has just been pregnant for two months. Now is the time when their relationship is at its best!
But even so, he never let her in, because it was very important to him, which also showed that he was very selfish!
Zhang Tingzhong said with a troubled face: "You two, please wait a moment, I'll be back in a while!"
Cheng Shi looked at Zhang Tingzhong's face and knew that the other party didn't want to take the two of them to see it, so he spoke.
"Does Mr. Zhang have something to hide?"
After hearing this, Zhang Tingzhong took a long time and seemed to have made a lot of determination before he spoke.
"It's a bit embarrassing, but in order to make you believe that the book I took is real, I will take you to see it myself!"
Cheng Shi and Wen Zuoxuan looked at each other, and both of them were moved. They were both very interested in where Zhang Tingzhong was going!
Zhang Tingzhong stood up and left the living room, and Cheng Shi and the others hurriedly followed!
The three of them quickly passed through Zhang Tingzhong's reception hall and came to the garden behind.
In the middle of the garden, there is a small pavilion. Opposite the small pavilion is a pool surrounded by a row of small trees. Next to the pool are two rockeries!
Zhang Tingzhong and his group stopped in front of the rockery!
Wen Zuoxuan frowned and stared at Zhang Tingzhong, but sometimes he looked at the rockery in front of him. He knew that Zhang Tingzhong had stopped here!
That's certainly not without reason. This rockery is only four to five meters high and only about ten meters in diameter!
Although the appearance of the rockery is quite unique, it can be seen that the rockery should be solid. Is there any secret room here?!
Cheng Shi raised his gaze upwards and kept looking at the rockery. Suddenly, Cheng Shi's eyes lit up!
He soon saw an unusual place. At a height of about one person, Cheng Shi saw a sunken place.
Zhang Tingzhong said with a proud smile: "You two, can you see where the agency is?!"
After hearing this, Wen Zuoxuan looked at it carefully and finally focused on where Cheng Shi was staring!
Wen Zuoxuan pointed to the recessed place and said, "The mechanism, is it that recessed place?"
Seeing this, a smile appeared on Zhang Tingzhong's lips, but because of this, Wen Zuoxuan also knew that he had guessed wrong just now.
If there really is a secret place here, how could its mechanisms be seen so easily?!
Sure enough, Zhang Tingzhong smiled slightly and said noncommittally: "Brother Wen, don't you think it would be too simple if there was an agency there?!
If the mechanism of my secret room is discovered so easily, then what confidentiality can I have here?!
In fact, the place just now was a trap. If someone pushed him down, the ground would sink and the person would be locked up!"
Wen Zuoxuan also moved his eyes to Zhang Tingzhong's face. Looking at Zhang Tingzhong with a proud face, Wen Zuoxuan suddenly felt angry!
Next, he looked around again, obviously determined to find out the real mechanism before he would give up!
