Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 415 Phantom Sound Box
  Along the way, Guiguzi walked very fast.

Gu Xun could tell that the old man's Qing Gong level was... average. Of course, this was generally for Gui Guzi's level of strength. If compared with Yan Lingji, or even the current Gai Nie Weizhuang, it would still be much stronger.

So in order not to fall behind, Gu Xun could only carry Yan Lingji throughout the whole process.

The three of them circled the mountain for several times before finally arriving at the place.

This is a valley with a narrow entrance, with steep mountain walls on both sides and towering peaks, forming a narrow and narrow path.

The three of them entered the valley together. It was very narrow at first, and then they finally made it through... Many people, after walking for several miles, it suddenly became clear that the valley was like a fairyland.

It is now autumn, and the bushes are beginning to wither and die. However, the wild chrysanthemums growing naturally in the valley are in full bloom, shining golden in the sky. Clusters of red-leafed mountain elm trees are planted around them, and their leaves have also grown at this time. It turns into patches of fiery red, with golden and red fires complementing each other, coupled with the waterfalls and springs surging from the mountain walls, all kinds of scenery, setting off a wave of vitality in the autumn when everything begins to feel lonely.

Deep in the valley, there are several wooden houses standing, with a rockery spring at the door. The structure is simple, the layout is clear, and there is no excessive decoration. What stands out is that it is simple, leisurely, and elegant.

Guiguzi led Gu Xun and Gu Xun through the open space in front of the house and entered the main room in the middle. The scenery inside the house was the same as the outside. There was no extra furniture, only chairs, tables, candlesticks, and walls. Hanging is a quite complete and detailed map of the world.

After the three of them sat down, Gu Xun looked at the surrounding environment and said with a smile:

"This is where Wei Zhuang and the others learned their skills? It's quite simple."

Gui Guzi smiled happily and asked, "Little friend Gu Xun came to see me specially, not just to meet my friend's teacher, right?"

"Well..." After successfully entering Guigu, Gu Xun could be sure that Guiguzi still had a good attitude towards him, so he nodded and said frankly, "Now that I'm here, I've also met you, an old senior, Gu. Naturally, I have some questions I want to ask.”

Guiguzi, as a background figure like Donghuang Taiyi and Tianzong Beimingzi, logically speaking, he must know a lot of secrets. There is no reason to let Gu Xun run into him and leave him alone.

A more obvious smile appeared on Gui Guzi's somewhat old and yellowed face, and he was not surprised by Gu Xun's purpose.

As far as he knew, the young man in front of him was already involved in many secret things, so he would naturally try to find out the truth.

As for an old guy like himself, the greatest value to him is the extra few decades he has lived.

"Then, little friend, please ask. I can answer... everything I know."

As soon as Gui Guzi nodded in agreement, Gu Xun immediately asked the most important question without any politeness, "What is the secret of Canglong Qisu?"

"Haha!" Guiguzi stroked his beard, laughed twice, and replied crisply, "I don't know."

Without waiting for Gu Xun to speak again, he added, "No one should be able to answer this question for you. Not only me, but also Donghuang Taiyi of the Yin-Yang family, Bei Mingzi of the Taoist family, and Xunzi of the Confucian school. have no idea."

When Gu Xun heard this, he was not in a hurry to ask Canglong Qisu, but asked about Xunzi, "If I remember correctly, Xunzi is a generation younger than Beimingzi, right? Is it appropriate to talk about it together?"  … ..." Gui Guzi was also a little confused by Gu Xun's inexplicable focus. He was stunned for a moment before replying, "Confucian disciples are one generation lower than Taoist disciples because the Taoist sage Lao Tzu is half a master of Confucius, the Confucian sage. If you are one generation shorter, naturally all disciples will suffer from it for generations."

"But this is just Confucianism's unilateral insistence on etiquette, and other schools of thought don't care."

"Okay." After getting the explanation, Gu Xunfu returned to the previous topic, "Don't Taiyi Donghuang know the secret of Canglong Qisu?"

"I don't know." Gui Guzi stroked his beard and shook his head gently, "The secret of Canglong Qisu has been lost for thousands of years. Although there are various legends circulating, there is no reliable enough evidence left. The Yin and Yang family's knowledge of it The understanding is indeed far beyond that of others, and as far as I know, they have made considerable progress now, but as long as Canglong Qisu is not really revealed to the world, Donghuang Taiyi will definitely not know the real secret behind it."

"Well, why is he so persistent when you don't know anything?" Hearing this, Gu Xun shook his head and sneered.

"Oh, although it is illusory and out of reach, among the hundreds of scholars at present, all the most powerful sects believe that Canglong Qisu actually exists, and the Yin Yang family is just the most enthusiastic about it."

"Senior, do you know the specific method of the Yin Yang family's search for Canglong Qisu?" Gu Xun grinned, putting aside these personal opinions and continued to ask.

"Haha..." Guiguzi pondered for a moment before slowly replying, "Seven countries, seven boxes, seven secrets, does little friend Gu Xun know this?"

"I know." Gu Xun nodded.

"The first step in searching for Canglong Qisu is to find these seven boxes that are passed down among the seven royal families. In recent years, the Yin Yang family has focused its main energy on this matter, and to this day, there have been quite a few reward."

"But as far as I know, to open these boxes, you need very strict conditions and the assistance of a rare treasure. Unfortunately, such things were lost nearly three hundred years ago. Later, all the disciples of the Yin and Yang family in the past dynasties Searching for its whereabouts, but nothing has been found so far.”

"Ah...Phantom Sound Treasure Box, right?" Gu Xun knew what this thing was as soon as he heard it.

Guiguzi looked at him in surprise after hearing his explanation of this rare treasure, "Yes, it's the Phantom Sound Treasure Box."

"It is said that this thing is an ancient thing, and it can even be traced back to before the Yellow Emperor. As for the specifics... it cannot be tested. Well... maybe the people of the Yin and Yang family know it."

"Well..." Gu Xun nodded, his eyes wandering, and he was thoughtful, "Except for the Phantom Sound Treasure Box, does Senior Guiguzi know the other conditions for opening the box?"

"I don't know." Guiguzi shook his head, "I only know that the key to opening the box is the Phantom Sound Treasure Box, and the rest of the conditions are also based on how to use the Phantom Sound Treasure Box."

"However, the Phantom Sound Box has disappeared from the world for three hundred years, and the documentary records handed down are extremely limited. I don't even know what the magic is about it, let alone the method of using it."

After hearing Guiguzi's answer, Gu Xun shook his head again and had some reliable guesses in his mind.
