Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 944 Ran away
  "Hey!" Gu Xun turned to look at the Bajiao Ice Platform and smiled, "Originally, I didn't plan to come."

"How should I put it... I can't change Shushan's attitude, nor can I dispel the idea of ​​the emperor. I just stay away. After all, we all have this friendship."

"Hehehe..." The Great Elder of Shushan smiled while stroking his beard, and nodded repeatedly, "I understand, so I never complain about you, Mr. Gu."

Shi Qing asked, "With your strength, you can't change the will of the Emperor of the Central Plains?"

Gu Xun shrugged, "Personal force cannot solve all problems."

"Of course I can forcefully prevent this from happening, but the cost... is not a question of whether I can bear it, but a question of who has to bear it."

"I'm sure nothing will happen to me. It will be someone else who will suffer, and it will be many, many...many people!"

"Do you two understand?"

"...I understand." Shi Qing frowned and replied coldly, "It's a pity...that your supreme emperor doesn't understand what he is doing!"

"Didn't anyone tell him that if something happens to the Fuso tree, the consequences of Yu Yuan's seal breaking?"

"So what are the consequences?" Gu Xun's eyes widened and he asked softly.

"..." Shi Qing couldn't answer.

The Yu Yuan seal has existed for thousands of years, and it cannot be said that it has been impregnable from beginning to end, but it has indeed not had any major problems. If we really talk about the consequences of the seal breaking, naturally no one knows.

Maybe someone knew about it thousands of years ago, but it has been lost by now.

Shi Qing could only say that judging from the feeling given when Yu Yuan's seal occasionally riots, it must not be a good thing.

The Great Elder answered at this time, "In the ancient legend of Shu Mountain, once the seal of Yu Yuan is broken, a great disaster will come to the world."

Gu Xunyi shrugged and pursed his lips, "Well, so there is still no conclusion."

"A major disaster... this is a very vague term. Is it a disaster for everyone, or for some people? Is it a disaster that is completely unsolvable, or can it be resolved?"

"For the emperor who acts as the supreme ruler and controls the world, this kind of rhetoric cannot stop him...at least not enough in this matter."

"Haha... So the demise of Shushan is doomed." The great elder showed a sad smile and revealed the end of his clan as calmly as possible, "I have already known this."

Shi Qing's face also dimmed, and he turned to one side, unwilling to speak any more.

Gu Xun sighed softly and brought the topic back to the beginning, "Before the empire sent troops, the emperor asked me about Shushan, which made my mind wander a little more. It happened that I had nothing important to do during this time, so I I changed my mind and went to Shu with the army."

"I didn't expect it. Fortunately, I came here and my work was not in vain."

The Great Elder's character was much tougher after all. At this time, he had regained his composure and asked in a calm voice, "Mr. Gu, do you mean the seal of this ice platform?"

"Yes." Gu Xun nodded, "The seal is wearing out faster than I expected. It seems that there are still some problems with Yu Yuan's power that I don't know about. If it is not reinforced, once the Fuso sacred tree is lost, it is uncertain. There will be big problems.”

The Great Elder nodded slightly and said, "No wonder Mr. Gu is guarding here on purpose."

Gu Xunyi shrugged, "What else? I have nothing else to do here."

"But speaking of which, you were so surprised to see me appear. Could it be that Shi Qing, your daughter, didn't mention me to you?"

"Lan'er?" Shi Qing was stunned for a moment, "Why are you involved again?"    "I met her last night, right here." Gu Xun pointed to the ground, "Uh...she didn't Tell you?"

"This kid is quite naughty. In order to hide the fact that he sneaked out to play at night, didn't he tell his parents about this?" Seeing Shi Qing's confused face, Gu Xun knew that Shi Lan really didn't say anything. I couldn't help but make a complaint.

Shi Qingze asked quickly, "You mean, Lan'er sneaked here by herself last night?"

"But, she probably doesn't know where Yu Yuan's seal is yet."

"What's this?" Gu Xun didn't care much, "I discovered it by accident. Although the way here is relatively hidden, the area around Shushan is only so big, so it's not impossible."

"She..." Shi Qing was speechless for a moment, but Gu Xun's words made sense, and she was no longer entangled. She just recalled Shi Lan's strange expression before leaving in her mind, and sighed, "No wonder... Lan'er before leaving. , always had an air of hesitation to speak, I thought she was just reluctant to let go..."

At this time, Shi Qing naturally wouldn't blame his daughter for concealing it. After all, it didn't cause any serious consequences.

Gu Xun was dumbfounded when he heard this, "What the hell, are you leaving!?"

He thought it wouldn't be a big deal if he only needed one night to do it, but you told me that he just ran away after one night! ?
  "Where are you going?" Gu Xun asked quickly. He finally found a suitable candidate, but he couldn't really run away.

Uh... Even if you run away, you will find him sooner or later, but it is more convenient to ask directly.

Shi Qing did not give an answer. Instead, he looked at Gu Xun with suspicious and defensive eyes, as if he was looking at a pervert.

"Uh..." Gu Xun made her stare so hard that she couldn't help but want to explain.

However, the great elder also asked, "Why did Mr. Gu find Alan?"

"Nothing, I just plan to teach her some martial arts." Gu Xun replied with a smile.

However, this answer left the Great Elder and Shi Qing a little confused.

Although you are not to blame for the Shushan disaster, your butt has decided your position. Everyone is looking at you as your mortal enemy. What the hell is it that you suddenly have to teach martial arts for no reason?

The great elder couldn't help but asked with suspicion, "Where did this incident come from?"

"That's it..." Gu Xun raised his hand and gestured, "Suddenly I found that Shi Lan is very suitable for practicing my martial arts."

"This martial art is quite demanding. I haven't found a suitable person to pass it on to me all these years. I finally met Shi Lan, and I don't want to miss it."

"Haha..." The great elder couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this, "Mr. Gu understands that after today, Alan will probably regard the empire as his unyielding enemy, and then the relationship between you will..."

Gu Xun didn't care about this, waved his hand and said, "So what?"

"I taught her martial arts just to find a suitable successor. As for what she will do after she learns it, I don't care. Even if she uses this martial arts to deal with me, it doesn't matter."

Gu Xun is just looking for a suitable successor for Seven Swords, not recruiting thugs. Loyalty must also be a prerequisite.

Chen He and Xue Nu, both of them caused considerable trouble to the empire, and Gu Xun never asked a question.

Regarding Gu Xun's completely indifferent attitude, the Great Elder and Shi Qing had nothing to say.

They had to admit that sometimes, Gu Xun was really a very pure person.
