Si Youqing stroked his beard, pondering. "Xie Yunliu... Xie Yunliu? For some reason, that name sounds familiar."
Zheng Xiu smiled. "The Playful Monk, Xie Luohe, Xie Yunliu... it seems the clues are all pointing to the same place."
Feng Bei nodded and said softly, "Yunliu Temple."
Si Youqing slapped his thigh. "So that's it!"
Seeing the realization dawn on them, Yue Yan continued, "But what I just told you still isn't the most interesting part."
Zheng Xiu's gaze sharpened. "Spit it out. Stop playing games."
"The epitaph gives the dates of his life. Gongsun Mo was born in the thirteenth year of Tianxuan and died in the thirty-sixth year of Deyao."
Hearing this, Zheng Xiu's expression shifted slightly as he did a quick mental calculation.
A moment later, Zheng Xiu said in surprise, "A figure from over two hundred years ago?"
