Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 596 Urgent summons again
  Judging from the relationship between Taoism and Yin Yang, it is reasonable for Bei Mingzi to tell everything about Gu Xun because he unknowingly ruined Donghuang Taiyi's plan.

Gu Xun didn't think there was anything wrong with this logical relationship, but what he was curious about was...

"Is Donghuang Taiyi so powerful? Without my sudden appearance, would his plan really be foolproof?"

Bei Mingzi did not answer, but asked, "What is your attitude towards the Yin Yang family?"

"Uh..." Although he didn't understand why, Gu Xun still replied first, "I don't like it. If it doesn't hinder winning..."

Halfway through, Gu Xun suddenly paused.

Bei Mingzi nodded slightly and continued, "In the final analysis, Donghuang Taiyi's plan is just to follow the trend and seize the right opportunity, but the general trend of the world is beyond the power of anyone to stop it."

"Confucianism, Mohism, or Taoism are not afraid of the Yin Yang family, but they are also unable to fight against Qin."

"Uh..." Gu Xunyu hesitated for a moment, and then tentatively suggested, "I wonder if senior understands a word called curve to save the country."

"Although the person who proposed this word is not a good thing, the meaning of the word itself is still valuable. If you can't defeat them, then join them and deal with them from the inside."

Bei Mingzi shook his head, "The Yin Yang family can do such a thing as surrendering to Qin, but the Confucianism, Mohism and Taoism cannot."

"Why?" Gu Xun couldn't help but question.

Bei Mingzi didn't mean to explain, and closed his eyes with a lack of interest. Gu Xun saw that the other party didn't mean to talk anymore, so he didn't bother much. He stood up, clasped his hands and thanked, "I won't disturb you anymore. I'll take my leave." .”

"Just do it yourself." Bei Mingzi closed his eyes completely and responded in a quiet voice.

Gu Xun silently exited the wooden house, turned around and walked back along the way he came.

………………

Under the radiance of the sun that was gradually setting westward, Gu Xun left Taiyi Mountain with great success.

Although the mystery of Canglong Qisu has not been completely solved, at least the next scene-Shu Mountain has been successfully unlocked.

Gu Xun felt like he was playing a game and completing tasks, one after another, going to one location after another, looking for one NPC after another, and then getting part of the final reward.

Although there is no game panel, it does have a system interface that can be replaced by a copycat, which still gives a sense of immersion.

Just when he left Tianzong, Chi Songzi, the head of Tianzong in the quiet valley behind Taiyi Mountain, also came to bother his uncle.

"Leaving?" Bei Mingzi asked, sitting on the couch with his eyes slightly closed.

Chi Songzi sat across from him. The uncle and nephew were wearing the same Taoist robes, had the same hairstyle, beard, eyebrows, and the same indifferent expression, as if they were looking into a mirror.

"gone."

"Hmm..." Bei Mingzi let out a low hum.

Chi Songzi continued, "The Renzong just came to ask about him."

"Who?"

"The new junior fellow apprentice, Xiaoyaozi." Chisongzi replied. "He...how do you feel?" Bei Mingzi opened his eyes and asked with a smile.

"Hmm..." Chi Songzi pondered for a moment, "Junior Brother Xiaoyaozi... is very free and easy, which is quite consistent with Renzong's swordsmanship."

"Really?" Bei Mingzi murmured softly, "In a few years, I'm afraid you won't be his match. It seems like it's time for Xue Ji to change his master."

Hearing this, Chi Songzi glanced sideways at the round stick-like Snow Ji Sword beside him, and replied thoughtfully, "We'll have to fight this later, so don't worry yet."

Bei Mingzi suddenly shook his head and sighed softly, "Alas..."

After sighing, Bei Mingzi suddenly began to chase people away, "I have done what I should do. From now on, don't come to me again for Tianzong matters. Just go."

Chi Songzi's expression changed slightly. She was not surprised, but a little...probably difficult to accept, but she didn't say much, nodded, stood up and left with Xue Ji.

………………

On the way back, Gu Xun thought about many things, and the one that occupied him the most was what Bei Mingzi said about him ruining the Donghuang Taiyi plan.

He did not understand that Beimingzi, or Taoist, Mohist and other sects had no choice but to deal with the Yin Yang family because of the power of the Qin State. They could only let Donghuang Taiyi plan his plans carefully, so they could not effectively and fundamentally stop Donghuang Taiyi. But now he is also restricted by Ying Zheng and cannot attack the Yin and Yang family. How could he ruin Donghuang Taiyi's plan?

You can't just rely on astrological changes to interfere with Donghuang Taiyi, right?
  Or... because I can rely on hard power to lift the table without playing. In the end, Ying Zheng's existence is only a check, not an absolute obstacle, so as long as I want, I can completely destroy Donghuang Taiyi at any time. Everything set up?
  The latter makes sense logically, but...how does Bei Mingzi know?

Moreover, Gu Xun had a vague feeling that the fundamental reason why he could destroy, or was destroying, Donghuang Taiyi's plan should be somewhere else, somewhere...that he ignored.

Unfortunately, he didn't figure out what the answer was until he wandered back to Xianyang.

Gu Xun temporarily suppressed the myriad thoughts in his mind and wanted to wander around to find a suitable restaurant to have a meal. However, before he could find the place, he was approached by a pair of Forbidden Army cavalry.

Looking at the familiar little leader with an anxious look on his face, Gu Xun narrowed his eyes and asked, "Your Majesty is looking for me again?"

"Yes, yes!" The other party nodded frantically, "Your Majesty summons the Imperial Master to enter the palace immediately."

After saying that, the little leader added a little aggrievedly, "I have been waiting for half an hour, Imperial Master, you are back..."

Seeing this, Gu Xun had no choice but to put aside the matter of eating for the time being, and turned around to head towards Zhangtai Palace. However, unlike last time, this time he did not use Qinggong to rush there.

When the leader of the forbidden army behind saw that the other party did not disappear directly like last time, but walked slowly - slow in his opinion - he suddenly became anxious. It was already a long time late, but he could not wait any longer.

However, he did not dare to directly tell Gu Xun, the national master, to use Qinggong to hurry up. Instead, he urged the horse to follow and suggested, "Guo Xun, how about I take you there on horseback?"

Gu Xun tilted his eyes upward and glanced at him, knowing what the other person was thinking.

Gu Xun had no interest in embarrassing the young general, but he also had no interest in riding on the same horse with others - especially men, so he simply cleared the way with his quick skills again, and the man disappeared in the blink of an eye.

The leader of the imperial army was slightly relieved when he saw this. His inner plan was to use the suggestion just now to vaguely remind Gu Xun that Gu Xun was urgent. In fact, he didn't really want to ride on the same horse with this national master with a somewhat strange reputation. If there is any offense, my life is at stake!
  Now that the other party simply left with Qinggong, he felt relieved.

Next, the leader of the imperial army was not idle, and quickly commanded his soldiers to rush back to the palace city as quickly as possible to return to duty. On the way, he couldn't help but worry about whether the national master would blame him for his clever behavior in the future.
