Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 555 There are many ways to pass the level
  Yan Lingji was naturally impressed by this drunkard who had treated her to a meal, and responded with a slight nod.

Gu Xun greeted him casually, "I haven't seen you for a while."

Master Ban asked out of curiosity, "It's brother Jing Ke who is here to pick me up. Isn't that kid usually the best to join in the fun?"

Jing Ke shrugged and took a sip of wine, "Juzi asked me to come. As for Xiaozhi, I haven't seen anyone, so I probably don't know."

"Hehe!" Master Ban gave a bad laugh, "I guess it's because after I told him last time, he was worried that he couldn't control his mouth, so he was reluctant to get together with Dr. Gu."

At this time, Master Ban deliberately mentioned the thief in front of Gu Xun, in order to prevent him from accidentally saying the wrong thing when he met the unscrupulous boy later. Now he will do it in advance An early warning let Gu Xun know that if this happened, it would be easier to say a few words.

Jing Ke nodded thoughtfully, and deliberately echoed, "That's right, that guy Xiaozhi always speaks freely. When you see a beautiful girl who loves to talk, you should avoid it."

After Master Ban and Jing Ke finished singing and talking, he introduced Taizhi, "Xiao Zhi, ah, his name is Taizhi. He is a leader of our Mo family. He is relatively young and has an unstable temperament. He is good at Qinggong. He was the leader of the past. The disciple of the best thief in the world."

Gu Xun nodded, indicating that he understood, and didn't say anything. He didn't hate Thief Zhi, and certainly didn't like him much. His impression of him was... a very distinctive thief.

However, Yan Lingji asked curiously, "A disciple of the world's greatest thief? Does that mean he is also a thief?"

"Hmm... that's right." Jing Ke shook his head and confirmed, but still praised his brother, "But he is a very powerful thief."

"Isn't he still a thief?"

"Uh... Xiaozhi has only ever stolen from bad people who were rich and unkind, and the money he stole was always used to help the poor, not for himself." Jing Ke thought for a moment and defended his brother again.

In response, Yan Lingji said, "Isn't that still a thief?"

"Uh...well, he is indeed a thief." Jing Ke had nothing to say and chose to retreat.

Master Ben stood aside, opened his mouth, and finally closed it.

There is no need to refute this statement, Xiaozhi is a thief!
  Seeing that no one was arguing with her, Yan Lingji smiled happily, and then saw a few words carved on the stone pillar in front of her. Unfortunately, they were not the Chinese characters she knew.

"Then what does it say?"

"The paradise of the world, the character of Song Dynasty, it's normal that you don't know it." Gu Xun gave the answer without thinking. In fact, he didn't know it very well, but he could vaguely identify it based on the shape of the characters. More importantly, he knew how to write it even if he didn't know it at all. What.

Master Ban stroked his beard and took over the conversation, explaining to Yan Lingji;
  "This is the writing of the Song Dynasty, which has long since perished. Mo Zhai, the ancestor of Momen, is from the Song Dynasty, and these four characters were left behind by him."

"Oh..." Yan Lingji curled her lips slightly after hearing this, but said nothing more.

She doesn't care about a country that has long since perished, but she scorns the term "Paradise of the World". She agrees that this place is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but the Land of the World... living hidden in the mountains, how can it be called a paradise? , you are simply deceiving yourself and others!
  Yan Lingji didn't hide her expression. Master Ban and Jing Ke naturally saw it clearly, but they didn't say anything. No matter what, she was a guest and not a disciple of the Mohist family. It was normal to disagree with the Mohist philosophy, as long as she didn't deliberately If they speak provocatively, it is not suitable for them to argue.

At this time, the cloud boat finally climbed to the highest point and reached the edge of the high platform.

A group of four people passed through the gate and officially entered the machine city, but there was still one last hurdle to pass. Under the illumination of the fire, gears undulated in the mountain wall, emerging and disappearing. Below the long hanging stone pillars was a dark and invisible deep trench, and in the middle was a long and twisted corridor. It is worth noting that The floor tiles in the corridor are carved with special patterns, including the sun, stars, and moon.

Master Ban turned to Gu Xun and Yan Lingji who were a few steps behind him and warned:
  "This organ tunnel is the last line of defense for entering the organ city. Only if you step on a specific pattern will you be safe. Otherwise, the mechanism will be triggered, and spikes, flames, and crossbow arrows will appear. Today, you should step on... the moon. Don’t step on the wrong foot, you two.”

After listening to Master Ban, Jing Ke added, "Although Mr. Gu, you shouldn't be afraid of these mechanisms, but you'd better not step on them to avoid trouble."

He was a little worried that Gu Xun was deliberately stepping on thunder by relying on his martial arts skills just to have fun...

Gu Xun nodded, "Don't worry, I'm not that boring."

He is not a child, so why would he deliberately walk into a trap because he is not afraid of it?
  After finishing his words, Master Ban and Jing Ke walked into the corridor first, probably to set an example.

After the two of them walked a few steps, Master Ban turned to Gu Xun and said, "You don't need to be too careful even if you walk like this. The gaps between similar floor tiles are all designed, not too big, just be careful."

Gu Xun nodded seriously, but he had no intention of following the steps. If he didn't step on the trap, it didn't mean he had to walk in such a crooked way.

Yan Lingji looked at him and asked with her eyes:
  Why aren't you leaving yet?
  Gu Xun raised his right hand and shook it, signaling her not to be anxious. Then he spread his palm flat, with his palm facing the sky, and the true energy in his body gathered on it——

Ice Soul Palm - Thousands of Miles Frozen!
  The majestic true energy was compressed and condensed into a rich and intoxicating blue light. It slowly flowed down from the palm of the hand and dripped to the ground. The surface of the corridor instantly condensed out of thin air to form a thin but tough and indestructible layer of ice, and it is still there. Spreading towards the front.

The two masters were walking well, but suddenly they felt a chill coming from behind them from their lower bodies and straight into their minds. They were both so cold that they couldn't help but shiver.

Shocked, the two quickly looked back and saw a layer of brilliantly clear ice suddenly appearing on the ground. It was about to spread to their feet. Before they could react, it had already passed through their bodies. The soles of the feet continue to extend deep into the corridor.

Gu Xun and Yan Lingji stepped lightly on the ice and walked up to the two of them freely.

Master Ben pointed at the ice and said stumblingly:

"Doctor Gu...you...this is..."

Gu Xun raised his hand and said with a gentle smile, "Don't worry, Master Ban. The ice will not damage the mechanism. It will melt away soon after we leave."

"It's not...this..." Master Ben still didn't speak clearly, but his heart was broken.

Is this a question of whether the mechanism will break? The question is why would a good person cause such a fuss? Just so you don’t have to pick up the floor tiles when walking...

Gu Xun patted Master Ban's shoulder and reassured him as usual, "I'm fine, and the agency is fine too. Isn't that great? Don't think so much, let's go."

After saying that, he and Yan Lingji passed Master Ban and walked to the front.

The remaining two people looked at each other in confusion. In the end, they could only sigh at each other, choose to bow to the boss, and then quickly caught up.
