Li Xinyue frowned slightly. She hated this kind of unreasonable quarrel the most.

"Everyone, be quiet, tidy up the yard, and don't argue over these trivial matters."

The servants quickly quieted down, "Yes, ma'am."

After saying this, the servants hurriedly continued to work.

Li Xinyue, Baili Changge and Lei Mengsha returned to the study and continued looking for ancient books.

After walking for a long time, I still couldn't find it.

At this time, Lei Mengsha seemed to suddenly think of something and asked Li Xinyue.

"Madam, since the servants are arranging the items..."

"Then, did they also put this book somewhere else?"

Li Xinyue suddenly realized what was going on. "It's possible!"

"After all, the last time I read that book was a long time ago, maybe even a few years ago."

"Therefore, it is understandable that I misremembered it or that the servants packed it up and put it somewhere else."

Having said that, Li Xinyue lifted the hem of her skirt slightly and walked towards the stairs not far away.

Then he called out to Baili Changge and Lei Mengsha behind him:

"Let's go to the second floor and take a look!"

“Maybe that thing is on the second floor now.”

.........

......

...

Soon, the three of them arrived on the second floor.

The layout here is slightly different from the study.

The wooden floor exudes an ancient atmosphere after years of precipitation. The bookshelves are arranged in an orderly manner, and are filled with various ancient books and documents.

A few rays of sunlight came in through the gaps in the window, adding a touch of warmth to the slightly dim space.

Li Xinyue looked around and made quick arrangements.

She looked at Baili Changge and said, "Changge, go to the bookshelf area over there and search carefully."

"Don't miss any blue-covered books, especially those that are placed high up or in a corner."

Baili Changge nodded slightly and immediately walked in the designated direction.

Then, Li Xinyue said to Lei Mengsha:

"Mengsha, go check those places where the miscellaneous items are placed. Maybe the books were accidentally mixed in."

"And don't miss those seats by the window either. Check to see if there are any books that look unique because of the sunlight."

Lei Mengsha nodded vigorously and started to act without saying a word. He searched every corner with nimble movements.

Li Xinyue herself walked to the depths of the second floor, where there were some ancient cabinets and boxes.

She thought that perhaps the books had been accidentally collected in these places.

She carefully opened each cabinet and examined the items inside, not missing any clues.

now.

Baili Changge carefully brushed the dust off each book, his expression focused and nervous.

His eyes moved back and forth between the bookshelves, not missing any place where the ancient book might be hidden.

Lei Mengsha kept muttering, "We must find it. This book must be hidden in a corner somewhere."

He flipped through the bookshelf for a while, then squatted down to check the books forgotten in the corner.

Li Xinyue's eyes were determined as she carefully observed every corner of the second floor.

Her heart was filled with anticipation, hoping to find the ancient book as soon as possible and unravel the mystery of the talisman's origin.

She walked slowly past the bookshelves, running her fingers lightly across the spines of the books, carefully identifying the titles.

Time seemed to stand still at this moment, with only the sounds of their gentle breathing and turning pages of books echoing in the air.

They did not miss any possible place and searched carefully for the ancient book with a blue cover.

Suddenly, Li Xinyue's eyes lit up. She found a book with a blue cover in an inconspicuous corner.

She hurriedly picked it up, opened it and saw the words "Strange Stories from the Sword Heart Tomb" written on it.

"Found it!" Li Xinyue shouted excitedly.

Baili Changge and Lei Mengsha immediately surrounded them, with delighted expressions on their faces.

They eagerly opened the ancient books and began to search for records about Fu Jia.

Chapter 268 Ancient Records, the Elders of Jianxin Tomb

Gently opening the ancient book, the paper makes a slight rustling sound.

The three of them stared at the pages of the book, starting from the first page and searching carefully page by page.

The first thing they saw was some records about the history of Jianxinzhong. Those words described the glorious past of Jianxinzhong and the legendary stories of the sword masters of the past generations.

However, they did not find any clues about the Rune Armor.

Continuing to flip through the pages, they came across some descriptions of strange weapons, but the rune armor was still nowhere to be found.

As they turned the pages, their mood became more and more tense.

I don’t know if the answer they are expecting will appear on the next page.

Finally, when they turned to a page in the middle, they saw a record about a mysterious object.

"Tale armor, a mysterious object with powerful defensive power."

"During the great battle between Beili and Liyang, 'Sansanqi' suddenly appeared and protected his master, repelling the enemy."

"However, its specific production method, source, and details of its special abilities are not mentioned."

"So... there's no detailed description?"

Baili Changge's face was filled with disappointment, and he sighed softly:

"I thought finding the ancient text would solve the mystery of the rune armor, but I didn't expect the record to be so vague."

"These few words really don't give us a deeper understanding of the Rune Armor."

Lei Mengsha also frowned and said unwillingly:

"What should I do?"

"Is there no other way?"

"This ancient book is like chicken ribs, tasteless to eat but a pity to throw away."

Li Xinyue gently closed the ancient book, her eyes revealing a pensive look:

"Don't be anxious."

"Although this ancient book does not record the details, it may give us some clues."

"Let's study it more carefully and see if we can find any clues."

So they opened the ancient book again, starting from the page they had just read, and studied it word by word.

However, as time passed, they still did not find any more valuable information.

Lei Mengsha stood up anxiously and paced around the room:

"This is not a solution. We have to find another way."

"This ancient book cannot satisfy our curiosity about the rune armor."

Baili Changge nodded slightly. "But where else in this Sword Heart Tomb can we find records about the Fu Jia?"

Li Xinyue pondered for a moment and said, "Perhaps we can ask the seniors at Jianxin Tomb."

"They are well-informed, and perhaps someone knows the details of Fu Jia."

.........

......

...

When Lei Mengsha heard Li Xinyue's proposal, his eyes suddenly lit up with excitement.

He slapped his thigh vigorously and praised loudly: "This is a great idea!"

"Madam, you are indeed very intelligent."

"If I could get guidance from the elders of Jianxin Tomb, I would definitely be able to make a breakthrough in solving the mystery of the Rune Armor."

Baili Changge frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and then asked, "Then where can we find the elders of Jianxin Tomb?"

There was a hint of urgency and anticipation in his tone.

After all, they searched hard in ancient books but gained little, and now they finally have a new direction.

Naturally, I don't want to miss any clues.

Li Xinyue's eyes were firm, she raised her chin slightly and said slowly:

"In the mountains and forests on the northern outskirts of Tianqi City, there happens to be an elder named Jian Xinzhong who lives in seclusion here."

"I've heard some rumors about this elder. It's said that he holds a very high position in the Sword Heart Tomb."

"He is also very knowledgeable and has a deep understanding of all kinds of rare treasures and mysterious objects."

"If we can find him, maybe someone knows the details about Fu Jia."

Lei Mengsha couldn't wait to say, "Then what are you waiting for?"

"Let's go quickly!"
