Chapter 193 Secret Code
Chapter 41
In the cave, a thin man and a man with a mustache were talking in low voices - they were the only two people there. It was quiet all around, and it was obvious that this place was sparsely populated.
The thin man looked around alertly, took out a book carefully, and carefully confirmed the situation in the cave again before quickly handing the book to the man with a mustache.
"Elder Tie, this is the 'Iron Warehouse Secret Book' that we found." said the thin man.
"Well done! Thank you for your hard work!" said the man with a mustache.
The two men were from Tiecangting. The man with the mustache was one of the elders of the Tiecang tribe, named Tie Jinjue. The thin man was his subordinate, named Qin Ding.
Tie Jinjue took the book and saw four big words "Tiecang Secret Book" on the cover. He opened the first page and found that there were only two words on the first page - "Part 1".
"Isn't this all?" Tie Jinjue said in surprise.
"The first part? Is there a second part? There was clearly only this one book when I took it! If there was another one, there would be no way I would miss it!" Qin Ding was also surprised.
"I don't know how many there are. I've never seen the Iron Cang Secret Book before." Tie Jinjue said, turning to the second page, and then flipping through the back, but found that from the second page to the last page, there was no text he could understand, only some strange symbols. "Why is this happening?" Qin Ding asked.
"It's understandable. This "Iron Warehouse Secret Book" is so important that it shouldn't be easy for people to understand it just by taking it." Tie Jinjue said as he flipped through the book.
"This is going to be difficult to crack!" Qin Ding frowned.
"Since this is not all, then... I wonder if the solution to the problem will be in the next article..." Tie Jinjue said thoughtfully.
"Should we find the next chapter as soon as possible?" Qin Ding asked anxiously.
"Absolutely not!" Tie Jinjue said hurriedly, "Although the fire was caused by Lichi Hall, the fire soon spread to Gusuo Hall next to Lichi Hall. The "Iron Warehouse Secret Code" has always been in Gusuo Hall. If it is not for firefighting, ordinary people cannot enter Gusuo Hall. If they find that the first part of the "Iron Warehouse Secret Code" is missing, they may guess that the reason for the fire in Lichi Hall is that someone wants to take advantage of the fire to enter Gusuo Hall to take out the "Iron Warehouse Secret Code" under the pretext of firefighting. Therefore, they should be very vigilant during this period of time, and even be fully prepared to wait for the person who got the first part to fall into the trap and catch the second part by surprise. Besides, if we don't use the method of arson, I haven't thought of any other way to enter that can conceal people's eyes and ears. It is naturally not feasible to set fire again, so this matter can only be put on hold."
"Elder Tie is right. We have no choice but to look for another opportunity. Where should we hide this first part?" Qin Ding asked.
"Since it was taken without permission, we naturally cannot carry it with us. We might as well bury it in this cave. Dig a hole in the ground, make it deep, bury it in it, and then make the surface the same as the ground elsewhere in the cave. Most people would not think that such a thing would be here. Burying it here, even if it is discovered by the people of Tiecangting, they will find it difficult to determine who brought it here." Tie Jinjue said.
