Eight hundred and seventieth chapters will go to the desert
Gu Xun's behavior this time was a bit strange. He neither showed any intention to help the Qin army, nor did he mean to cause trouble for the Qin army.
This is not in line with Yuki Onna’s consistent understanding of Gu Xun.
As far as she knew, although Gu Xun was a state counselor of the Qin State, he did not always stand on the side of the Qin State, and sometimes he would act against Ying Zheng's wishes.
Today, Gu Xun told her about the Demon God of War with almost no reservations. It seemed that this time he was on the opposite side of Ying Zheng, but... it was not thorough enough.
Judging from the performance, it seems to be tempting her to confront the Qin army head-on.
It is normal for Gu Xun to trick others into working for him, but Xue Nu is very sure that he will never use her as a knife.
Gu Xun would tell her about the Demon God of War just because she really wanted to know, and he didn't mind telling her.
I have no intention of helping the Qin army, nor do I have the intention of cheating the Qin army.
So this time...did he choose neutrality?
But what’s the point of neutrality in this matter?
Faced with this question, Gu Xun pondered for a moment before replying, "My position... It's hard to say at the moment. We have to wait until we get to Loulan to see the specific situation."
"What do you mean?" Snow Girl asked, gazing.
Gu Xun looked at the dusk sky and did not answer. Instead, he changed the subject and asked, "Who do you think is the protagonist in this battle for the Demon God of War?"
The snow girl lowered her eyes and pondered, silent.
Gu Xun continued speaking, minding his own business, "On the surface, the protagonists are naturally on the empire's side, and on the other side, they are against the empire."
"On the empire's side, the main members are Gong Shuqiu, the eldest son of the Yin Yang family, Siming, and Wei Zhuang and his group of Niliusha Assassins."
"As for the anti-imperial side, it's relatively simple. They are you and Ge Nie. Of course, you can also reluctantly include the young man in purple who was captured just now. He is the young master of the Xiang clan and a staunch anti-imperialist."<
/p>
The snow girl's brows wrinkled unconsciously.
From a direct comparison, the imbalance of combat power is serious.
Even if we don't count the thousands of Anxi suppressing troops, there are still too many people on the empire's side.
The two of them, Wei Zhuang and Gai Nie, are basically fighting each other. She herself has to face the eldest young master of the Yin Yang family, Siming, and almost the entire Niqusha assassin group.
It is impossible to win, just barely not being beaten to death would be good.
However, Gu Xun turned around and smiled at Xue Nu, and asked with interest, "But is this really the case?"
"Whether you and Gai Nie, or Wei Zhuang and the others, are you really the key to this turmoil caused by the Demon God of War?"
"What else do you know?" There was no clue, and Xue Nu couldn't figure it out, so she simply asked Gu Xun directly.
Gu Xun did not answer, but just waved his hand and said, "I told you to let you know this. I just hope you can take this opportunity to go to the desert of the Western Regions and browse the different scenery of the Central Plains."
What he meant was that just go along and join in the fun and watch the scene, and don’t worry about the rest.
But whether the snow girl can understand this meaning, or whether she is willing to obey it, is another matter.
After all, the Snow Girl is not Jingli and the others.
As long as they have a word from Gu Xun, they can immediately turn into spectators and fish in the water with peace of mind, but the snow girl is not guaranteed.
So Gu Xun doesn’t force it.
Anyway, if the God of War really shows up and behaves the same as in the movie, she will immediately understand what Kan Jing'er means.
There is really nothing to do except watch the excitement.
Manpower versus the devil is like stabbing an elephant with a toothpick, and it doesn't even match the word "overestimating one's capabilities".
Xue Nu held her sword and looked at the Qin army that was gradually evacuating in the distance. She did not continue to struggle with Gu Xun's attitude and asked instead:
"Why did Gongshu Qi attack the old man before?"
Gu Xun replied cheerfully, "Dragon Soul!"
"Among the countries in the Western Regions that have disappeared from history, the legend about the Loulan Kingdom is quite special."
"Countries in the deserts of the Western Regions have a common problem of lacking vegetation and water sources, but Loulan is a special case. They do not lack water."
"According to legend, this is because Loulan received the blessing of the goddess, so he has an endless source of water, and the root of it is the dragon soul."
"According to the information found by Gongshu Qiu, the dragon soul is the guarantee for the small country of Loulan to survive in the Western Region, and the loss of Loulan is precisely because of the loss of the dragon soul."
"Uncle Lu, that old man, was one of the people sent by Loulan to find the lost dragon soul, and he was lucky enough to find it."
"Gongshu Qiu captured him just to get the dragon soul."
"The dragon soul with powerful divine power is not only the source of life in the desolate desert, but also the key to destroying everything. If you want to drive the Demon God of War, you must first obtain the dragon soul."
After listening to Gu Xun's long explanation, Xue Nu nodded slightly, "Dragon Soul... Brother Jing Ke's child was involved, right?"
Gu Xun spread his hands and replied in a wanton tone, "Obviously."
"Hmm..." The snow girl hummed softly, slowly closed her eyes, and temporarily sorted out the current situation in her mind.
In general, it is still inconvenient for her to directly fight the Qin Army. The disparity in combat power is too huge. She can only temporarily hide in the dark, look for opportunities, save people, and sabotage the Qin Army's actions.
The key to this should be the dragon soul.
After roughly having an idea, Snow Goddess glanced at Gu Xun hesitantly, and after thinking about it for a while, she asked as if she had made up her mind, "What...are you going to do next?"
For Gu Xun, she... How should I put it, she loves and hates this man. She could force herself to completely ignore his existence before meeting him, but now that she has actually met him, even though she has all kinds of resentments in her heart,
I still unconsciously hope to walk with him.
In this regard, Gu Xun said that it is better for him to use the ostrich tactics to the end.
At this moment, the snow girl seems to be calm, but her inner world will never be as calm as Europe in 1939.
If he continues to hang around in front of her, he will inevitably continue to stimulate her emotions, so it is better to avoid it first and let her calm down by herself.
"I'm going to find Wei Zhuang and follow them." Gu Xun answered, along with an explanation, "Gong Shuqiu prepared a sand boat that can sail in the desert. It's more comfortable to ride on that one."
"Hmm... Do you want to join us? It will definitely be a thousand times better than riding a camel."
The snow girl glanced sideways at Gu Xun, and immediately her body swayed, and her beautiful figure disappeared.
Gu Xun looked at the snow girl leaving, and shook his head sadly, but he did not leave just like that. Instead, he looked up again at the red sun that was about to sink completely under the horizon, and said with emotion:
"It's getting late this day."
As he spoke these words, a figure wearing a hat appeared quietly in a shadowed corner.
