Bai Li Hongzhuang watched Di Beichen with suspicion. Seeing his enigmatic expression, she stopped asking further questions. Di Beichen had always been extremely clever.
Di Beichen's gaze fell once again on the scroll made of sheepskin. Just by looking at the arrangement, he could tell that the sheepskin scroll held considerable value.
However, what exactly was written on the scroll?
Just by its appearance, many people would be interested in it.
"Wife, have you seen this sheepskin scroll before?"
Curiosity shone in Di Beichen's dark, bright eyes. Knowing Bai Li Hongzhuang's temperament, if she didn't have some understanding of this sheepskin scroll, she wouldn't have participated in the auction for an unknown sheepskin scroll.
Bai Li Hongzhuang nodded slightly, not concealing anything. "Yes, I obtained a similar sheepskin scroll in Qishui City before. However, it was only a quarter of the complete map.
If I'm not mistaken, this sheepskin scroll should be the same as the one I obtained.
As long as I can gather these two pieces of the sheepskin scroll together, I will have half of the map."
Hearing her words, Di Beichen immediately understood the value of this sheepskin scroll. It was strange that such a unique method was used to separate the scroll unless it contained something extremely important.
Besides something of great importance, no one would go to such lengths.
Qishui City and Yuanwu City were so far apart, and for Bai Li Hongzhuang to coincidentally come across two pieces of the sheepskin scroll was truly fate.
Bai Li Hongzhuang immediately explained to Di Beichen the process of how she obtained the sheepskin scroll and how she found the map from it. Perhaps Di Beichen would have some speculations.
Di Beichen looked at the quarter of the map that Bai Li Hongzhuang handed to him and was equally puzzled.
"The mountains and rivers on this map are very ordinary, with no distinctive features. I can't determine which place it represents."
Di Beichen returned the fragment of the map to Bai Li Hongzhuang and spoke slowly.
Bai Li Hongzhuang didn't feel disappointed with Di Beichen's response. As Di Beichen said, the mountains and rivers on the map were ordinary, and many places had similar landscapes, making it impossible to identify.
"It's alright. Maybe we can figure it out once we obtain the second fragment of the map."
Bai Li Hongzhuang smiled nonchalantly. Even though they now knew the location of the second fragment, they still didn't know where the remaining two fragments were or if they would ever encounter them.
However, the allure of this unknown opportunity was filled with curiosity. Perhaps they would stumble upon a treasure unintentionally.
Di Beichen nodded slightly. "It's possible. In any case, we must obtain this sheepskin scroll at the auction tomorrow."
...
While Di Beichen and Bai Li Hongzhuang were in high spirits, Xie Honglang wore a troubled expression.
At the time he left behind the Qiankun bag, he didn't feel anything because nothing was more important than his own life.
However, now he couldn't help but feel heartbroken when he thought about the Snow Dragon Grass inside the Qiankun bag.
What made it even worse was that the Snow Dragon Grass didn't belong to him personally but to his family.
The family had spent a large sum of money to have him obtain the Snow Dragon Grass from the auction, but he hadn't even handed it over to the family before encountering such an incident in the restaurant.
Now, when the family asked about it, he was truly at a loss for words.
This news couldn't be concealed from others. Even before he had a chance to speak, the news had already reached the ears of the people in his family.
