Chapter 1396 Humph! Want to hide?

Chapter 1396 Humph! Want to hide?

"Since Mr. Nan Gong wants to take the "Huangshi Tianshu" as a thank you gift, Gu will not be obsessed with it."

Gu Xun turned over this article generously, because he didn't want that book much in the first place, otherwise how could Chu Nan Gong have avoided him unharmed for so many years.

That book may be important, but to him...that's all.

The Phantom Sound Box was still very important, it was just a toy he used to amuse his daughter.

When he showed up to see Chu Nan Gong, he didn't come for the book that was supposed to be given to Tianming.

"In exchange..." After the wedding, Gu Xun changed the topic and made his request with a smile, "Mr. Nan Gong, can you answer some questions for me?"

"This..." Chu Nan Gong did not show any embarrassment, he was still smiling, and seemed to be willing to help Gu Xun solve his doubts. However, as soon as he opened his mouth, he immediately started coughing violently, "Cough cough... cough cough... …Cough cough cough!”

Gu Xun waved his hands dumbfounded, "Okay, okay, old Mr. Nangong, please stop coughing so hard. It's better to cough up again when you're older."

"Just give your answer carefully, I won't embarrass you."

As soon as Gu Xun said these words, Chu Nan Gong's cough immediately healed, his face was rosy and he smiled as usual and said:

"It makes the Imperial Master laugh. People are old and their health is not good. I don't know where they started to have this cough problem."

"Ha! It doesn't matter, as long as you are happy." Gu Xun didn't know what expression to show, so he could only smile casually to show that the old man was casual.

"So, is your health okay now?" Gu Xun finally confirmed before asking the question.

Chu Nan Gong narrowed his eyes and replied, "It's okay. What do you want to ask the Imperial Master?"

"Yeah." Gu Xun nodded, and then asked the first question, "Why did you give the "Huangshi Tianshu" to Tianming?"

"At this point... the Imperial Master should have already made a guess in his mind, so you don't need me, an old man, to answer any more, right?" Chu Nan Gong did not answer directly, but asked Gu Xun instead.

So does Gu Xun know the answer?
  "It seems that that thing is only useful in the hands of that child." Gu Xun whispered his guess in an affirmative tone, but it was equivalent to confirming with Chu Nan Gong whether it was correct.

The old gentleman's silence was his answer - acquiescence.

Sure enough, "Yellowstone Heavenly Book" is just like the Phantom Sound Treasure Box, not everyone can truly control it.

This can be regarded as one of the special talents of the son of Jing Ke and Gongsun Li.

"So, handing the book to him is also part of Donghuang Taiyi's plan?" Gu Xun then asked.

Chu Nan Gong still did not answer directly, but replied calmly, "The Imperial Master should also know this."

"That is to say...no, right?" Gu Xun looked at Chu Nan Gong with a kind face and asked with a smile.

The answer to this question was already guessed by Gu Xun, and he only asked it for verification.

If it was Dong Huang Taiyi's plan, Chu Nan Gong wouldn't have to avoid him all these years.

Anyway, it's useless if others get the "Huangshi Tianshu". Even if it is forcibly taken away by Gu Xun, at worst, Donghuang Taiyi will find a way to get it back - of course, Donghuang Taiyi's way is to ask Ying Zheng for help.

Just like the Phantom Treasure Box, as long as the "Huangshi Tianshu" is something that Donghuang Taiyi needs, he can ask for it on the grounds that he needs it to realize Ying Zheng's immortality.

If this was included in Donghuang Taiyi's plan, the result of Chu Nan Gong's efforts to avoid Gu Xun for so many years was just to save Donghuang Taiyi some trouble.

Judging from Gu Xun's understanding of this bad old man, he doesn't seem to be that loyal to the Yin Yang family.

Facing Gu Xun's confirmation again, Chu Nan Gong chuckled and responded, "Old man, I don't have the ability to easily persuade the emperor of the empire to help me solve my troubles." This response can basically be equivalent to a positive answer.

Gu Xun nodded and continued to ask the third question:
  "Since it's not Donghuang Taiyi's arrangement, then, Mr. Nangong, what is your purpose in doing all this?"

"Haha..." Chu Nanggong lowered his head slightly, passed his old palms over his gray beard, and chuckled a few times, "Old man, I... am just doing my best."

"Do your best...heh, interesting." Gu Xunpin glanced at these words, then laughed out loud, and then asked, "What about the young man from the Xiang family?"

"Are you giving him advice just to do your best?"

Chu Nanggong shook his head, "Hoho, that's not true. Helping that child is to obey fate."

"One does his job, the other obeys destiny... Are you sure these two should be separated?" Gu Xun was thinking about something in his mind. The smile on his lips became more and more playful, but he didn't forget to try to get more from Chu Nan Gong. information.

When Chu Nan Gong heard this, he raised the hand that was not holding the stick and waved it, "It's different, it's different! Let's calculate it separately!"

"Really..." Looking at the old man's smiling face under his beard, Gu Xun muttered softly.

……

……

……

After a while, a rickety old man on crutches walked out of the alley shakily.

After saying "different", Chu Nan Gong didn't answer any of Gu Xun's questions anymore, and pretended to be dumbfounded the whole time.

Gu Xun saw that he couldn't ask for any more information, so he kept his initial promise, did not continue to embarrass the old man, and happily let him go.

After all, respecting the elderly and loving the young is a virtue that should be possessed. I have never heard of Chu Nan Gong doing any bad things that would make people angry, so it was naturally impossible for Gu Xun to forcefully embarrass an old man.

But this old guy must still know a lot of valuable information, well... let's see if there is a chance to find a way to make another deal later.

………………

"So, the Third Master Guild will help me handle it, right?"

On the street, Tianming was escorted away by Shaoyu, and Tianming, who already understood that Zhang Liang was just saying that to tease him, was still a little worried and asked his friends around him.

"Don't worry!" Shao Yu waved his hand impatiently, "It's just that the scene looks chaotic, but in fact it's just a minor trouble and can be easily solved."

"Okay... I'll believe you for once!" Tianming hesitated for a moment and decided to accept the words of his friend who he still disliked.

"Then where should we go next?"

"Let's go have dinner together? Or should we go our separate ways?"

"Huh..." When mentioning this, Shao Yu's mood dropped a bit. He sighed and was about to say something when he felt a familiar figure disappear from his sight.

Shao Yu hurriedly turned around to look for the figure, and soon found the target again. After a closer look, it turned out to be Shi Lan.

She was walking towards the port, not knowing what she was going to do.
