Bulwark of Light

Chapter 632 Crazy Light
This statement came out.

Xiangchen's expression changed slightly.

There seemed to be a ray of doubt in his eyes.

He looked at Gu Shen in bewilderment, and then at his disciple...

"After talking about this matter, shouldn't it be time to look at the 'ancient texts' in your collection, Grand Duke?"

Gu Shen said calmly: "You should know that the real purpose of my trip is actually to learn more about 'ancient characters'."

After hearing the words, the abnormality in Xiangchen's eyes quickly disappeared.

He smiled, and stretched out his hand to guide Gu Shen: "No problem."

Leaving the main hall, not far away, there is a trail.

As the four princes of Beizhou, Xiangchen owns a manor covering an area of ​​[-] mu. Although this manor is simple, it also has a "precious place".

Apart from teaching students, Xiangchen's biggest hobby in daily life is writing, painting, and collecting. These are the hobbies of "literati". However, in addition to collecting those rare and valuable calligraphy and paintings, he also likes to collect some uncommon "extraordinary objects" ".

Walking along the path, you can see the "forbidden place" that the servants are not allowed to enter in normal times.

Xiang Chen led Gu Shen to a library.

"Mr. Gu, please come in—"

Xiangchen stretched out his hand and pushed the library open, and said with a smile, "The 'ancient texts' and 'extraordinary objects' I have collected are all in it."

"Squeak."

The library is actually made of wooden doors. It is not unheard of to use "wooden doors" these days.

This is true of many ancient families in Nagano.

But the one in front of him is Grand Duke Xiangchen from Beizhou... Gu Shen squinted his eyes and sized him up slightly.

"Is this door a sealed item?"

"good."

Xiang Chen said with a surprised smile: "Mr. Gu's vision is really good. In fact, this door is not a valuable item... It's just a few ancient talismans inside, which can block the 'spiritual induction' from the outside world. Lou reading papers and writing, I want to be pure and peaceful, as long as this door is closed, no sound from outside can come in at all."

Gu Shen nodded, he was very familiar with this kind of sealed item, he had arranged it by himself in the small courtyard of Xuankong Mountain before.

It seems that Xianchen's library really has some lost "ancient prose" collections.

Gu Shen entered first, Xiang Chen followed, and the young student Li Bing followed obediently at the end, closing the wooden door of the study building silently... With a light knock on the door, the inside of this majestic study building was opened. The scene slowly ignited and appeared in front of my eyes.

This book building is like a rolled up paper tome, with a hollow in the middle, and several red lanterns are suspended inside. When someone enters, these lanterns will all float up, and the soft light emitted will brighten the inside of the whole book building. Every corner of it is illuminated and transparent.

Gu Shen felt an unprecedented tranquility.

"Do you feel the extreme tranquility in the heart lake? There is no [Deep Sea] link in this library, not at all." Xiang Chen said softly, pointing to the zenith of the library, and said calmly: "In【 In the chaotic world overlooking the deep sea, it is really difficult to find such a clean and pure place.”

"Hey, can you hear me?"

Gu Shen tried to shout softly in the heart lake.

Sure enough, there was no response.

Chu Ling is not in his spiritual link.

Gu Shen looked directly at the blazing flames spreading brightly in those groups of study buildings. This should be because of those [lanterns]... Maybe there are more "spiritual shielding" sealed items, no matter what, Xiang Chen Successfully turned this place into a "stainless land".

[Deep Sea] You can't see the deepest part of the manor at all.

"I heard that Guangming City also has such a library."

Gu Shen raised his eyebrows and asked, "I don't know how your library compares with Guangming City... so?"

"How does this compare?" Xiang Chen shook his head and smiled.

Hearing this, the young man Li Bing behind couldn't help laughing.

Xiang Chen took out a volume of ancient books from the gap in the library, and said with emotion from the bottom of his heart: "This place of mine is just a personal collection, and at most there are some unremarkable 'supernatural objects', the 'taboo' in Guangming City The library' has a history of 600 years. It is said that all the karma of fate in the world is hidden, and all the answers are only waiting for those who are destined to step into it. It is incomparable, incomparable..."

Gu Shen looked at the ancient scrolls all over the library.

It is worthy of being a "sage" who is full of peaches and plums in Beizhou. This old man has built such a reading building away from the prying eyes of the "deep sea". There are probably tens of thousands of scrolls in it.

"Grand Duke Xiangchen, I have a question."

Gu Shen stood with his hands behind his back, standing in front of a huge wall of books, he murmured, "Have you read all these books?"

"I have seen... a part, a large part."

Xiang Chen smiled and said: "It's just a human brain, which can't be compared with [Deep Sea]. What I remember today may be completely forgotten tomorrow. So I always come to the library for a stroll, reviewing the past and learning the new."

"Ok."

"I hope you still remember what I just said..."

Gu Shen said softly: "The more fanatical you are, the easier it is to make mistakes."

Xiangchen frowned.

He was confused: "I don't understand... Mr. Gu, what are you talking about?"

"As the Grand Duke of Beizhou, you invited me to meet because you want to attract extraordinary people for the military fortress... This is actually reasonable, but in this case, with your status and status, in front of so many people at the dinner that day It seems unreasonable to invite you face to face."

Gu Shen turned around slowly, he was standing in front of the study building, looking at Xiangchen.

"You know, as long as 'Qianye' and 'Ancient Text' are mentioned, I can't refuse this invitation..."

"In front of everyone, it's nothing more than letting everyone see, I promise you."

The smile on Grand Duke Xiangchen's face slowly disappeared.

But Gu Shen's gaze went beyond Xiangchen.

He calmly looked directly at the young man who was born in Dongzhou with him.

Li Bing.

The last two sentences just now were what Gu Shen said to Li Bing, not Xiang Chen.

"Brother Gu."

The young garrison of Dongning City sighed softly, and asked, "It's a good thing to be smart, but being too smart may not be good... There are some things that you've already seen through, so why bother to tell the truth?"

The [lantern] in the study building, the burning light, fell on his shoulders.

A ray of skylight shrouded the sky.

These lights, falling like waterfalls—

Li Bing and Xiang Chen are all in the light.

And Gu Shen stood at the end of a huge wall in the study building, in front of him happened to be the place where the light of the study building was the weakest.

"Just act as if nothing happened just now..."

Li Bing stretched out a hand and pressed on Grand Duke Xiangchen's shoulder, he asked seriously: "Isn't it good?"

"not good."

Gu Shen said indifferently: "Your performance has already been ruined, why should I continue to act with you?"

"The garrison of Dongning City, the talented poor student 'Li Bing' of Dongzhou."

He calmly said: "Don't think that I really don't know anything about you... You were born in Qinghe like me, left Dongzhou when you were six years old, studied in Beizhou, and not long after that, you met Xianchen , was carefully cultivated by the Grand Duke of Beizhou. Since then, he has entered the Legion and has been continuously promoted. He has experienced in the fortress and made outstanding achievements... In the eyes of many central city dignitaries, your promotion process is simply unbelievable. .”

If there is no Chu Ling.

Gu Shen really doesn't know how to read the files of "Li Bing".

But... there is no if.

Before leaving, Chu Ling sent a copy of Li Bing's file and pointed out a very strange point.

How could a poor kid from Qinghe have the opportunity to go to Beizhou?

He must have had some kind of assistance.

However, in the [source code] query... but no relevant results can be found. In fact, Li Bing's file shows one thing. In his smooth life, this invisible "assistance" is actually There has been.

Came to Beizhou, encountered Xiangchen, joined the legion, and became the garrison of Dongning City.

Behind everything, there are shallow traces to follow.

In fact, it is not difficult to find out these "aids". Li Bing has quite a few "crowds" in the legion, and most of these "crowds" at the earliest stage come from... Xizhou.

"I think, on the day of the dinner, Grand Duke Xiangchen's invitation on the spot is probably a necessary part of your plan."

Gu Shen said calmly: "After all, you know that the Holy Inquisitor has arrived in the Central City. If you wait until I see Jia Wei and you send out an invitation, I will most likely not agree..."

"Ah."

Li Bing laughed.

He said faintly: "If you are really smart enough, you should agree in the initial negotiation..."

"Promise what? Become a legend, then be controlled by you, and finally pushed into the abyss?"

Gu Shen raised his eyebrows, and said with interest: "I'm afraid it will be difficult to control me with such a low-level method. Let me think about it... Do you have any better ways to deal with me? Maybe you want me to do it for you." 'Invitation' paid the price and messed up the big event of Dongzhou's extraordinary people entering the fortress, but didn't you think that I would pretend to agree and then immediately turn back?"

"...[The Temple] has its own way."

Li Bing no longer responded according to Gu Shen's words, but said coldly: "Those things before are not important anymore. The important thing is that you have entered this library."

Here, deep sea signals are cut off.

All mental detection methods are also ineffective.

Everyone knows that today Gu Shen went to make an appointment with Grand Duke Xiangchen.

But no one knows what... happened in this library.

"So, what do you want to do?"

Gu Shen said lightly: "Keep your mental manipulation, let Xiang Chen attack me, and then... make me a murderer."

"Perhaps... simpler."

Li Bing smiled mockingly.

He stretched out two fingers and wiped them in the void.

In the study building, there seemed to be an invisible silk thread that was wiped across the teacher's neck.

"Pfft-"

The invisible thread in the void was as sharp as a blade, a bright red shot out from the front of Xiangchen's neck, and he fell forward.

Then, he put two fingers on his neck.

"The more fanatical you are, the more mistakes you make..."

Li Bing stood where he was, tilted his head with a smile, and asked seriously: "Gu Shen, you are wrong, have you really seen 'fanatic'?"

"Let me show you... the frenzied light will only burn out all mistakes and darkness."

next moment.

The red light building in the study building trembled violently.

"His."

A touch of hot water splashed on the red lampshade.

The light shining at this moment has become a little scarlet and dim.
