On the mountain road, Gu Xun and the others were walking slowly.
The main reason is that Gu Xun walks slowly, and Concubine Yan and Zhang Han are trying to accommodate him.
Concubine Yan, who had never seen Gu Xun look so tired before, couldn't help but asked again with concern, "Are you really okay? Otherwise, why don't you take a short break?"
Gu Xun raised his head and glanced at the bright moon hanging high in the sky, shook his head, "It's okay, I'm just a little weak."
Zhang Han looked at Concubine Yan, then at his boss, and decided to shut up and not take the opportunity to be attentive.
Concubine Yan received Gu Xun's response. After a moment of silence, she said, "I... this is the first time I have seen you in this state."
"Tsk..." Gu Xun smacked his lips and responded with a smile, "Well... I haven't been this embarrassed for a long time."
"But it's not bad. I'm just a little tired. I'm much better than when I first learned martial arts. At least it's not life-threatening."
Concubine Yan was very curious when she heard this... Can your life be threatened?
So he asked, "As far as I know, you have never been defeated since you first emerged in the world. You have always used your strength to crush your opponents. When did you first learn martial arts... then?"
When Zhang Han heard the question asked by Concubine Yan, he couldn't help but raise his ears and try to eavesdrop.
He is also very curious about this question.
According to the information at hand, even with Qin's intelligence capabilities, he has never been able to find out the trajectory of Gu Xun's life before he appeared in South Korea. It is like an extraterrestrial visitor who suddenly fell from the sky, which is confusing.
Gu Xun did not directly reject Concubine Yan's rare curiosity. He pondered for a moment, thought up some words and then replied:
"It didn't take long. The first time I came into contact with martial arts was probably three or four years ago."
"Three or four years!?" Zhang Han couldn't help but said in surprise when he heard this answer.
Gu Xun's martial arts, even if he started practicing it after his mother was born, he felt that it was too monstrous, but the result was only three or four years...
However, Zhang Han recalled that Gu Xun had said before that he had learned the art of onmyoji just by looking at it. After such a comparison, this answer seems...still unacceptable!
Isn’t this world a bit too uneven?
Despite Zhang Han's interruption, Concubine Yan's performance was relatively calm. Although she could not understand this speed of cultivation,... people are different.
Anyway...just accept it.
"During that time, you were not in the Central Plains?"
Gu Xun pondered for a moment and nodded, "I guess I'm not here."
According to the current geographical division of the Central Plains, the Hunan and Hunan regions where he mainly operates in the animal world are indeed not considered the Central Plains.
"At that time, I mainly wandered in the mountains and forests, which was relatively dangerous, but I also practiced martial arts faster."
"?" Concubine Yan couldn't help showing a confused expression.
Zhang Han also looked puzzled.
I have never heard that practicing martial arts in the mountains and forests can improve efficiency...
Seeing this, Gu Xun pursed his lips and smiled, and said casually, "Don't think too much, you can't go to that place, it's too... far away."
In fact, what Gu Xun said was not to explain the speed of his martial arts advancement, but that the animals in the forest practiced martial arts at an outrageous speed.
Especially for the Seven Heroes, the average training period is not much longer than that of Gu Xun, and problems often arise and require retraining, and then they come back exactly the same within a few days... and may even be stronger.
It can only be said that the rules of the world are different.
Concubine Yan didn't think too much about the so-called mountains and forests. She just thought that there might be something special about Gu Xun's martial arts. Anyway, she didn't think that her onmyoji would be more smoothly practiced in the mountains.
"Looking at your expression, although it was very dangerous at that time, you must miss it very much, right?"
"Haha..." Gu Xun raised his eyebrows and replied without denying it, but he was not sure about it either. "I miss it... I can't talk about it. I just occasionally reminisce about the people, things and things in the past." p>
"Life is like a reverse journey, with stops and starts, and I'm almost used to it."
After Concubine Yan heard this, she did not continue to ask further questions. She looked at the dark mountain road in front of her and turned to talk about Yu Yuan:
"You shouldn't have taken such a risk before and directly entered a place where the degree of danger was unknown."
Gu Xun waved his hand and replied, "I'm sure of it."
"But that Yu Yuan... is indeed strange."
"As a place of sunset, it feels like an abyss of hell... Is sunset so scary?"
In the last sentence, Gu Xun turned his face and looked at Concubine Yan next to him and asked.
Concubine Yan shook her head gently and said, "I don't know my identity..."
"The name of Yu Yuan, and the concubine's body are only occasionally seen in myths and legends. I never thought that I can see my true appearance today..."
Gu Xun reminded her with a smile, "It's hard to say whether it's true or not."
Concubine Yan glanced at him and retorted, "Most myths are evolved from certain rumors in reality. If there is a corresponding reality for Yu Yuan, then Shushan is most likely the source."
"In that case, it means that this is Yu Yuan, but it is not completely consistent with the myth."
Gu Xun raised his eyebrows, "Well... you are right to say that."
Hearing Gu Xun's approval, Concubine Yan smiled elegantly, and then asked, "What do you plan to get from Yu Yuan by taking such a big risk?"
"It doesn't look like there is anything beneficial to the outside world."
"Just to get a result." Gu Xun responded calmly.
"So you got it now?"
Gu Xun smiled and shrugged, "Obviously."
"Then what is it?" Concubine Yan asked further.
However, Gu Xun gave the same answer as he previously responded to the Great Elder of Shushan:
"This has nothing to do with you."
"Knowing this means nothing to you, it's better not to know."
Zhang Han, who was listening to the information with his ears propped up, couldn't help but show disappointment in his eyes.
Obviously, what Gu Xun said has nothing to do with them is definitely the most important gain from entering Sichuan.
If you don’t know this, you will be missing an important link when you report back to your Majesty.
But there was nothing I could do about it, Zhang Han was very self-aware, and Concubine Yan was unwilling to tell Gu Xun, so it was even less possible for her.
You should just be your follower honestly, and if you are missing one link, then you will be missing one link.
Concubine Yan was not discouraged when she didn't get an answer. She was just asking out of curiosity.
The Fusang Sacred Tree, the Three-Legged Golden Crow, the Sunset Yu Yuan... various existences from myths and legends appeared one by one. Even Concubine Yan was not immune to the attraction of the inside story, and she herself had something to do with the Three-Legged Golden Crow.
Ming's interaction is considered to be involved.
Since Gu Xun doesn’t want to say it, there’s no need to force it.
But this also made her curiosity even more intense.
Ever since she met Gu Xun, especially after the relationship became closer, the other party would rarely deliberately conceal information. Even if he did, it would mostly be to create trouble, see more excitement, or to whet people's appetites for a while.
Fundamentally speaking, he seldom cares whether a certain news will be known to others.
But this time, Gu Xun was obviously serious and unwilling to say more, just like his answer - it's better not to know.
