Su Yu looked at a few documents in his hand and pushed them aside. He remembered that they were all useless and it was a waste of time to read them.
"Yu Zheng, do you know where the archives are kept in Dali Temple?"
"Do you want to find out about the missing women in Kyoto City in the past?"
"Yes, I told Ding Yan, but I don't know when his people will be able to find out. It's better to do it yourself."
"Dali Temple specializes in serious cases in various places in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Most cases such as missing persons cannot be reported to Dali Temple. If we really want to investigate, we should go to the Kyoto Prefectural Government. There should be records there."
Su Yu's eyes lit up, yes! How could she forget this?
"Then let's go."
"If we go to Jiangfu Yin like this, we won't be asked to investigate unless there is Ding Yan's handwriting or the emperor's oral instructions."
Su Yu felt that it was not good to alert the emperor about such a big thing. It might be easier than Ding Yan's handwriting.
"Then let's go find Mr. Ding and ask him for a handwritten letter."
"Why don't you just eat in the house first, and I'll go get a handwritten letter from Mr. Ding, and then we'll go to the Kyoto government office together."
Thinking of his identity, Su Yu did not refuse.
"Well, go ahead and I'll wait for you here."
"I'll be back soon."
After Yu Zheng left, Su Yu was bored in the house, so she wanted to go out to enjoy the snow. Erhu, who had not been full for a long time, came to Su Yu and bit her skirt.
"Erhu, where are you taking me?"
Erhu didn't let go and even pulled forward. Su Yu understood that Erhu wanted to take her somewhere else.
Thinking that Yu Zheng had just left at the moment, it would be a while before he came back.
"Okay, you lead the way."
One person and one dog were walking in the corridor of Dali Temple. On the way, they met officials of Dali Temple. Those who knew Su Yu's identity greeted Su Yu, but those who didn't know just looked at Su Yu curiously.
After walking for a while, Su Yu saw that the two tigers in front still had no intention of stopping, so Su Yu had no choice but to stop.
"Erhu, where are we going?"
Seeing that Su Yu wouldn't leave, Erhu came back and bit her skirt.
"Okay, okay, why don't I go with you? But if you don't have an explanation later, I won't be polite to you."
This has happened before in Yujia Village. Once, Su Yu followed Su Yu for a long walk around the back of her house. What he took her to see in the end was a puddle with two palm-sized fish in it. , but she was so angry that this foodie had been thinking about eating it all day long. If today was like last time, let’s see how she would clean it up.
Soon, Su Yu discovered that the place where Er Hu took her was the small garden of Dali Temple. She followed Er Hu to the foot of a tree, and saw Er Hu patting the bottom of the tree with his paw.
A circle of turf was planted under the tree. Su Yu discovered that the grass growing where Erhu pointed was slightly different from the grass next to it. If you didn't pay attention, you really wouldn't be able to spot it.
"Erhu, step aside."
Erhu took a few steps back after hearing Su Yu's words.
Su Yu grabbed the grass where Er Hu pointed just now with both hands. Unexpectedly, the grass in his hands was not uprooted, but what he lifted was a square piece of turf. When he lifted it hard, he found that the grass was planted on a wooden board. Yes, there was a thin layer of soil on the board, and a black hole appeared underneath. At this moment, a man and a dog were looking at the hole.
Su Yu was speechless. Erhu was afraid that he was involved in the secret passage. They had only been here for half a day, but two people were found at the entrance of the secret passage. They didn't know if the secret passage in Dali Temple was related to the case of the woman's abduction. relationship, but there is a secret passage in Dali Temple, which is very intriguing.
But this was a family matter, so Su Yu didn't want to pay attention to it. He covered the secret passage and took Erhu back to the previous yard.
As soon as she turned the corridor, she heard Yu Zheng calling her name anxiously.
"Fish, fish!"
"I'm here!"
Hearing Su Yu's voice, Yu Zheng turned around suddenly and saw Su Yu standing not far behind him, striding over.
"Where have you been?"
"I……."
Su Yu was about to explain, but she didn't expect that the man opposite him suddenly hugged her into his arms.
"What are you doing? Let me go!"
Yu Zheng only hugged Su Yu for a few breaths and then let go of Su Yu.
"These are extraordinary times. It's best to tell me where you want to go in advance."
Only then did Su Yu realize that Yu Zheng's face was extremely pale, and he was obviously fine when he left.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Yu Zheng looked at Su Yu and smiled helplessly.
"No, I just felt a little uncomfortable suddenly, but I'll feel better after seeing you."
"Then do you and Ding Yan want to get the handwritten letter?
"It's almost here, let's go to the Kyoto government office now."
"We have to wait a little longer. I have to go see Ding Yan now."
Then Su Yu looked around and found no one around, so he stepped forward and whispered a few words in Yu Zheng's ear.
"Erhu just discovered a hole in the garden. I don't know if it has anything to do with this case, but I think I should tell Ding Yan."
Yu Zheng glanced at Erhu and was really surprised.
"Then let's go find Ding Yan now."
"Um."
Ding Yan couldn't help but be surprised when he saw Yu Zheng, who had just come to see him, come back again, this time with Su Yu by his side.
"Miss Su has something to do. Didn't she say she was going to the Kyoto government office? Why are you here again?"
"Master Ding, I found a secret passage in the back garden of Dali Temple."
"This is impossible?"
Ding Yan didn't want to believe that there was a secret passage in Dali Temple. Regardless of whether the secret passage had anything to do with this case, it was his dereliction of duty if it happened in Dali Temple. This was already a very serious matter.
"It's impossible. Mr. Ding will know if he comes and takes a look."
After hearing what Su Yu said so confidently, Ding Yan also felt that this was very likely. He didn't want too many people in Dali Temple to know about it, so he ordered two of his confidants to follow him to the small garden of Dali Temple.
"It's under this tree."
Ding Yan signaled, and one of his men stepped forward and gently pulled it out with his hand, and the board covering it was lifted up together with the turf.
"Miss Su, does anyone else know about this?"
"No, just a few of us."
"I wonder if I can borrow Miss Su's dog. I want someone to go explore the road."
"OK."
Erhu was specially trained by her and had a strong sense of danger. Unless others used fire attacks in the cave, Su Yu was not worried about Erhu's safety at all.
"You two brought...?"
"My dog's name is Erhu."
"You two take Erhu down to investigate."
Three of the people sent to explore the road were killed and one was injured. They felt a little guilty when they asked them to go explore the road. However, with Miss Su's dog following them, the two of them felt confident.
"Erhu, just go in and walk around and come back, do you understand?"
Su Yu bent down and touched Er Hu's head. Er Hu shook his tail happily and went down into the cave first. The two saw him and followed him into the cave. Su Yu and the other three were waiting outside the entrance of the cave. .
