Chapter 132: The Crown Prince (2)
The staff checked one by one and finally walked to the place where the ancient sword was placed. Originally it was just a routine patrol, and the staff’s attitude wasn’t too focused. They just looked at it randomly, and generally spoke like nothing had happened.
Unexpectedly, the ancient sword had disappeared and there was nothing inside the showcase, as if nothing had been placed there.
The staff thought it was because he had gotten up too early and his head was a bit dazed, so he couldn’t see clearly. When he took a deep breath and looked at it intently, he realized that this was not an illusion.
The ancient sword had indeed disappeared. However, the showcase glass had no signs of tampering at all.
The staff felt nervous, and quickly dialed the Master’s phone: “Master, something happened, that ancient sword was stolen.”
As soon as the Curator Xia’s received the call, he quickly reached the museum, the ancient sword really was gone.
The staff was afraid that the owner would hold him accountable, and quickly said: “Before I left, I had checked several times, the door was locked, even the alarm didn’t go off last night.
Curator Xia was nervous and sweating all over his forehead. Right now he couldn’t find out who was to be held responsible. So, he immediately went to the surveillance room to check on the surveillance video.
The surveillance video showed that at five o’clock in the morning, the ancient sword was still quietly placed inside the showcase glass.
The surveillance video also confirmed that the staff did indeed lock the door before leaving. Even in the event of theft, the alarm didn’t go off.
Curator Xia sent someone to check on the surveillance camera. It turned out that the surveillance camera was fine and there was no problem.
The time when the ancient sword disappeared was around six o’ clock in the morning. However, during this time period the surveillance video experienced some malfunctioning, and couldn’t find video around the time the ancient sword disappeared.
“What’s the matter, there was no malfunction an hour ago, how come a problem occurred at such a time!”
It was like the ancient sword just disappeared in thin air, not even a clue could be found.
After Curator Xia finished speaking, he suddenly remembered about the magic of this ancient sword. Since this ancient sword could be immortal for a hundred years, it shouldn’t be a strange phenomenon if it disappeared by itself.
Curator Xia quickly emptied such bizarre ideas from his mind.
The museum opened at nine o’ clock in the morning, and there was only one hour left. How will they explain this to the people?
The curator was so anxious that he quickly contacted the relevant departments, and decided to temporarily suppress the news.
Regardless of the reason, whether it was stolen by someone, or it was something related to a spiritual event, this matter couldn’t be exposed.
Hopefully in this short period of time they would be able to find the whereabouts of the ancient sword and put it back.
At nine o’ clock, the Xia Zhou Palace Museum opened.
Originally it was because of the century-old immortal sword, it had attracted many people to admire it. In addition to that day, after Ye Sui had come to the museum, it had attracted more people.
As soon as the museum opened, these people coincidentally rushed into the place where the ancient sword was placed, however there was nothing except the empty display glass.
Curator Xia’s came up with an idea. He posted a notice outside the museum saying that for some reason, this ancient sword would not be exhibited here in the near future.
He also informed the staff in the museum to explain to the people one by one, but didn’t tell them the specific reasons.
While dealing with the people, the museum began to increase its efforts to find the location of the ancient sword, and bound to retrieve back this precious ancient sword.
They didn’t know that this ancient sword, which they didn’t know where to find, had unexpectedly popped up in the East Palace of the Xia Zhou Palace Museum.
That ancient sword was lying quietly on the ground in the main hall of the East Palace. The sword body was still bright and sharp, as if it was waiting for someone to arrive.
Curator Xia was checking on the museum’s things as usual, and that night, he came to the East Palace. Tonight the sky was dark and gloomy as the moonlight was hiding behind the clouds.
Curator Xia’s gaze swept around randomly, suddenly his eyes suddenly stopped, his face full of disbelief.
The sword was lying on the empty and spacious ground. The pattern of the sword was very simple and unadorned. But the sword glowed with a dark cold light under the moonlight.
This sword had a sharp edge before it was unsheathed. The cold and hard sword seemed to have the power of thunder and was unstoppable.
Curator Xia was shocked. He recognized that this sword was in the museum. But how did it get in here? Could it be that this sword walked by itself?
It was so unusual.
Curator Xia calmed down and prepared to call the people in the museum and ask them to retrieve back the sword. But when he was about to dial the number, his actions stopped.
Curator Xia thought about it for a moment, no, there was something weird about this sword, he felt that he shouldn’t call the museum. Then he contacted Master Zhu and talked about the sword.
Master Zhu also felt that something was wrong regarding this matter. The sword disappeared from the museum and appeared in Xia Zhou Palace out of nowhere?
This sword was indeed very strange, it was very likely that there was a ghost attached to it and for many years at that. Since it was a ghost, she was incapable of conquering it.
Master Zhu decided to ask her master to come out from the mountain. At this time tomorrow, they would head for Xia Zhou Palace together.
Curator Xia felt calm after hearing Master zhu’s words. President Xia decided to close the museum starting tomorrow, and nobody was allowed to enter.
President Xia thought about it and prepared to leave. He dared not to move the sword, so he let the sword continue to lie on the ground.
Before Curator Xia left, he glanced back. Under the moonlight, the light on the sword flashed, a cold air, as cold as ice, passed through him with a deep chill.
It was much colder than tonight.
Curator Xia was shocked, he dared not look at it any more, and immediately left the East Palace, not wanting to stay any longer.
The sword of the museum was missing, however the fact that it arrived at the Xia Zhou Palace Museum did not spread to the outside world. Even Ye Sui did not know that the general sword was found at the Xia Zhou Palace.
After having the third dream that day, Ye Sui thought deeply. She thought about the three dreams and the more she thought about it, she felt that these dreams were connected to her and Chen Shu’s previous life.
Ye Sui deeply doubted that she was not dreaming at all, but what she had seen was something she had experienced a long time ago. Ye Sui looked at Chen Shu and said “Do you remember the two dreams I told you before?”
Chen Shu replied clearly: “Are you dreaming again?” `
Ye Sui nodded “Then what did you dream of this time?” he asked.
