"Tsk, tsk. I didn't know that Brother Shen was so handsome. You have to be careful. There are a lot of men and women in this world. If you go out like this, who knows how many girls will be thinking about you. "Yu Meng was already waiting outside. He circled around him and said with a click of his tongue.
Shen Luo chuckled and didn't mind Yu Meng's joke.
"Dinner will be ready in a while. Let's go. I'll show you around the house." Yu Meng grabbed Shen Luo's shoulder and walked outside.
This was the residence of an immortal master. Shen Luo couldn't wait to see more. Naturally, he wouldn't refuse.
The Yu Mansion occupied a large area of twenty to thirty mu. There were more than ten big houses, a large garden, and a large pond. Although it was a little shabby, the scenery was very good.
In addition, there was a large martial arts arena. There were many weapons like sabers, spears, swords, halberds, and so on.
Yu Meng was a hospitable person. He brought Shen Luo on a tour, and he kept introducing the place to Shen Luo.
"Big Brother Yu, that looks a little special. May I know where it is?" Shen Luo pointed at a lonely and simple pavilion beside the pond and asked.
"That's my father's study. I don't want to boast, but it has the most books in the entire county. Let's go. I'll show you. Maybe you'll like some books. "Yu Meng patted his chest and said.
"That's not good." Shen Luo hesitated and said.
"It's okay. I'll just take a look. Usually, I don't want to go with him." Yu Meng didn't care and pulled Shen Luo into the study.
Seeing this, Shen Luo could only follow Yu Meng.
The study wasn't small. It was about fifty square steps. There were tall bookshelves on all four sides. The bookshelves were filled with books. In the middle was a table with eight treasures. There was a white jade paperweight, a green jade brush holder, and a black graphite inkstone. All of them were top grade.
"So many books. Uncle Yu is really well-read and knowledgeable. No wonder you can cultivate the art of talismans to such a profound level," Shen Luo praised.
"It's alright." Yu Meng pursed his lips.
Shen Luo noticed the change in Yu Meng's expression from the corner of his eyes. He smiled and started browsing through the bookshelves.
There were many books in the study, much more than in the Temple of Spring and Autumn. However, they were placed in a mess and were not properly sorted. It was as if a nouveau riche had bought a large number of books to add elegance and decorate the place.
Shen Luo recalled Yu Yan's nouveau riche outfit and couldn't help but smile. He quickly took out a geography book from the bookshelf.
There was a huge difference between this dream world and the world he lived in. He even suspected that this was the territory of the Great Tang. If he wanted to investigate the situation, it would be most convenient for him to look through the geographical records.
"Ascending Cloud Prefecture, Qing Prefecture, Chishui … Eastern Arrival County." Looking at the familiar names, Shen Luo was even more puzzled.
He flipped through the geography book for a while and quickly found the location of Eastern Emergence County. It was quite far from Chunhua County, separated by several prefectures. It was exactly as he remembered!
"The geographical location is correct. This is Eastern Emergence County." Shen Luo confirmed in his heart.
However, this place was so far away from the Temple of Spring and Autumn. How did he get here?
"Eh!"
Shen Luo exclaimed softly. His gaze fell on the geography book. The records about Chunhua County had some names that were slightly different from what he knew.
For example, there was a large river in Chunhua County. Ever since he could remember, it had always been called "White Lotus River". He used to play there as a child. However, in this book, it was called "Pure Jade River".
In addition, in the east of Chunhua County, there was "Tianping County". He didn't know how many times he had been there. However, in this book, it was called "Feng Rao County".
"What's going on?" He thought to himself.
"Younger Brother Shen is interested in geography books? What's there to study? In today's world, the imperial court doesn't care about these things. That book was published in the 20th year of Guanghuai, more than a hundred years ago. Younger Brother Shen, why don't you take a look at this saber manual? " Yu Meng glanced at the book in Shen Luo's hand, shook his head and said. Then, he handed over a thin blue book.
Shen Luo responded. He put down the geography book in his hand and took the saber manual. Suddenly, his movements froze.
"Brother Yu, when did you say this book was published?" Shen Luo picked up the geography book again. He stared at Yu Meng and asked.
"Twenty years of Guanghuai. Look at the back of the book. The date of publication is written. What's wrong?" Yu Meng pointed at the back of the geography book and asked curiously.
Shen Luo hurriedly turned over the geography book in his hand. Sure enough, at the back of the book, he saw the words "Published in the 20th year of Guanghuai".
Shen Luo stood still for a while. He put down the two books in his hand and walked forward quickly. He quickly searched through the bookshelves.
"Younger Brother, what are you looking for? Do you want me to help you? "Yu Meng was startled and asked.
Shen Luo ignored him and continued to search through the bookshelves. After a while, he finally stopped with a thick imperial calendar in his hand.
"So, you are looking for an imperial calendar. Why are you looking for this?" Yu Meng walked over with a smile and asked.
Shen Luo looked dignified. He started from the last page and flipped through it. He flipped through nearly half of it before he stopped.
The date on this page was the 29th year of Kaiyuan.
Shen Luo looked at the page in front of him. A storm surged in his mind.
The 29th year of Kaiyuan was the year he lived in. According to this imperial calendar, it was nearly a thousand years away from the twenty years of Guanghuai mentioned by Yu Meng.
"Did I dream that I came to a thousand years later?" Shen Luo thought.
In this case, some of the places in the geography book had changed. The style of the buildings in the city and the appearance of the clothes were different.
Yu Meng saw Shen Luo's expression change. He scratched the back of his head. He didn't know what was going on but he didn't say anything to disturb him.
"Young Master, dinner is ready. Master invites you and Young Master Shen." At this moment, Xiaoshunzi came to the door of the study and shouted through the window.
"Got it. We will go now." Yu Meng turned around and responded.
"Sorry, I just thought of something. So, I checked the time in this imperial calendar. It seems that I have wasted some time." Shen Luo put down the imperial calendar in his hand and calmed down. He said apologetically. "Don't say that.
"What are you talking about? Younger Brother Chen, I'm very envious that you can calm down and read books. Father always forces me to read and draw talismans, but it's a pity that I'm a boorish person who only likes to play with spears and sticks. If I had your hobby, I wouldn't have lived such a painful life."
Shen Luo also smiled and didn't say anything.
"Well, let's not talk about this. We have been fighting for a day. Let's go and have a good meal. Father likes you. There should be a lot of delicious food today. "Yu Meng rubbed his hands and said.
Shen Luo put the books back to their original places. He left the study under Yu Meng's urging.
