In the still of the night, with the candle illuminating brightly, Pei Xuanjing quietly flips through the book in his hands.
This is a duplicate of "Records of Strange Tales in Shenzhou" obtained from Wang Yun and was delivered by a messenger sent by Gu Ji today.
The thin book, titled "Records of Strange Tales in Shenzhou - Post-drinking Gibberish Edition" by Bai Xiaosheng, was penned in traditional Chinese script on the cover.
This name has been handed down for a long time, seeming to have existed as long as martial arts have been practiced.
Bai Xiaosheng is a name, a title, but not just a single person.
He claims to know everything, on condition that you pay a high enough price, you can gain any information you want.
No one feels his bold claim is exaggerated, because he can always provide answers to all the questions.
Pei Xuanjing opens the book. The freshly-inked writing in the common Da Xing script is easy to understand.
