"Yes." Gu Xun nodded, "It is said that one of the surnames passed down by the Yellow Emperor is Gongsun. I would like to know if Gongsun Yu is a descendant of the Yellow Emperor?"
"I'm afraid not." Xunzi gave a negative answer after thinking for a while, "The surname Gongsun passed down by the Yellow Emperor is just a rumor and there is no basis for testing. And as far as I know, Gongsun Yu's ancestors should be sure
She is the queen of Gongsun of a certain country, but I don’t know which country it is."
"Well...thank you, farewell." After getting the answer, Gu Xun left.
After all the guests left, Xunzi changed his previous aloofness and showed a slightly solemn look of contemplation on his face.
Unlike the Six-Fingered Black Man, the Six-Fingered Black Man has basically no defense against Gu Xun after the Battle of the North. What can he do to guard against someone who can't guard him at all? He is more worried about Gu Xun making a mistake.
, hoping that the other party can walk on the right path as much as possible, just like the motto he told Gu Xun - know the white and keep the dark, which is the way for the world.
Because Xunzi didn't understand Gu Xun, even though he had a relationship with Han Fei, he was still quite wary of Gu Xun. He was skeptical of everything Gu Xun said, even if some of them he thought were true.<
/p>
The fundamental purpose of the information he told Gu Xun before, especially the most important one, was to test Gu Xun's subsequent actions in order to determine the other party's true purpose.
In fact, the reason why Xunzi was so vigilant was related to the previous fire in the library. The accident had already happened once, so he couldn't help but be careless.

"People, things, places... So if you want to get Canglong Qisu, you need to use specific things in a specific place, by a specific person, to do a specific thing?" I accompanied Gu Xun to inquire,
Yan Lingji knew enough without knowing it. At this time, she was walking beside Gu Xun and guessed with divergent thinking.
Looking at Yan Lingji who was quite excited and felt that his guess was definitely not far from the truth, Gu Xun nodded gently, "Maybe."
There are many possible combinations of people, objects, and places. What Yan Lingji said is just one of them, that is, these three are prerequisites, and the puzzle can be solved after they are collected together. p>
However, it is also possible to use two of them as prerequisites to obtain another...'key', and then cooperate with a third party to solve the puzzle. It may also be more complicated. After all, there may not be only one person, and there may not be only one thing.
There is only one thing, and the location may not be just one. There may even be other conditions, such as time.
Seeing that his feedback was not strong, Yan Lingji knew that the other party must have other ideas, so she asked curiously:
"Have you thought of more?"
"I remember that you should know the candidates and items. All that's left is the location."
Gu Xun raised his hand to push down the small face that was squeezed in front of his eyes, and replied casually, "I just know a rough idea, it's not clear enough, don't worry, I won't be able to figure it out for a while."
"Okay." Yan Lingji curled her lips when she heard this and was no longer so excited.
Now Canglong Qisu is not only Gu Xun's fun, but also hers. She is very much looking forward to the moment when the mystery is solved. Of course... she is only responsible for curiosity, not for solving the mystery.
"Let's go find Fu Nian first."
Then the two of them followed the way they came and walked back to the vestibule of Little Saint Xian Manor. A disciple was guarding there. After seeing Gu Xun and the other two, he led them back to the small side street where they had met Fu Nian before.
Hall.
When the two of them went in, they saw that there was one more person beside Fu Nian than before, a young man. He was short in stature and had fine features. His age was estimated to be no more than fifteen or sixteen years old. He was wearing plain clothes and had a leisurely look on his face.
However, after Gu Xun entered the door, there was a look of exploration and consideration in his eyes.
When Fu Nian and Yan Lu saw Gu Xun returning, they both stood up and saluted, "Master Imperial Master!"
"Haha, you're welcome, Master Fu Nian." Gu Xun waved his hand and went to his previous seat, "As for you, you're even more welcome with me."
The four of them sat down, Yan Lingji tilted her head and looked at the pretty Yan Lu with a playful face. She had only overheard Jing Salamang mentioning that she had a younger brother who was like a family member in Little Saint Xian Manor, so she naturally had some feelings in her heart.
I'm very curious, and when I saw it today... I felt inexplicably a bit old-fashioned, not like a child.
Although speaking, this boy is probably about the same age as Zhang Liang from Liusha, but compared with Zhang Liang, Yan Lingji still feels that Yan Lu has a little less youthful spirit, and more of a middle-aged man's suddenness and appearance.
Does not match.
Gu Xun didn't feel the slightest mismatch with Yan Lu's temperament. Isn't that what the second senior master was like? But this face... was really too tender. When Gu Xun recalled the memory of the second senior senior master with a mustache on his lips,
, it feels very inconsistent and makes me want to laugh for no reason.
Yan Lu could clearly feel the strange gazes between the two. To be honest, there was no malicious intent, but it didn't feel very kind.
"Master National Preceptor..."
Just when Yan Lu opened his mouth to speak despite the other party's gaze, Gu Xun interrupted him, "Actually, your sister also wants to come to Songhai to see you, but you should know that Ayan is still young now and cannot leave her.
My mother is not suitable for running around, so I stayed in Xianyang."
As soon as Yan Lu heard Ayan's name, his originally probing eyes suddenly darkened, and his eyes became even darker and uncertain.
Although Jing Salamander's name was not mentioned, since the other party mentioned Ayan, it means that he did have close contact with Jing Salamander, but I don't know whether it was with good intentions or malicious intent.
Fu Nian noticed the change in the eyes of his junior brother beside him. He didn't know what was going on, but he was still a little wary and his body tensed slightly.
Gu Xun turned his eyes and saw the two people's reactions at a glance. He continued indifferently, "As for your sister, if you agree to Master Fu Nian to listen, then I will tell you directly. If you don't agree, let him go first."
Just avoid it."
When Fu Nian heard this, he turned to look at his junior brother and saw Yan Lu think about it for a moment and then said to him:
"Brother, please let me and Mr. Gu have a chat alone."
It's not that Yan Lu can't trust Fu Nian, he just doesn't want these fellow apprentices at Little Saint Xian Manor to be too involved in his past, in case something unexpected happens.
Fu Nian didn't say any words to dissuade him. He stood up silently and saluted Gu Xun, "Then Fu Nian will excuse me now."
After saying that, Fu Nian left the room, but he didn't go far. He just stayed outside the door to prevent anything from happening to Yan Lu.
Inside the room, Gu Xun showed a kind smile to Yan Lu and said in a relaxed and kind manner, "I know you are defensive, but don't worry too much. Even if you can't trust me, you can still listen to my words seriously. Anyway, here is
Little Shengxian Manor, it’s impossible for me to do anything to you.”
This is what Yan Lu actually thinks in his heart. It is difficult to tell whether Gu Xun's words are true or false, but at least he is safe in his master's sect and can slowly test the other party.
Yan Lingji looked at Yan Lu with the eyes of a stupid child at the right time - if he really wants to attack you, let alone the Little Saint's Village, the Great Saint's Village will be useless.
