Chang'an Fu

Before Gu Huai could react, he fell onto a soft place. Before he could see what was under him, he heard a male voice yelling in his sharp voice.

"Oh, my fox fur bed, I haven't had time to sleep yet!" As he said, he ran forward and pulled Gu Huai up, touching the wrinkled place Gu Huai lay on with distress

Gu Huai hadn't figured out what was going on yet. Seeing that the other party was so distressed by this thing, he felt embarrassed. After all, he fell from the sky inexplicably, scaring him away and almost breaking his stuff.

"I'm sorry!"

The man ignored him, just continued to touch the place, muttering something in his mouth, but Gu Huai didn't hear it clearly, he thought he didn't hear it, so he repeated it

"That.... I'm sorry... I didn't mean it, I..." Before he could finish the rest of the sentence, the man seemed to be stimulated and questioned loudly

"Isn't it intentional? If you say it's not intentional, let other people's hard work go to waste? Who do you think you are?" The man stood up abruptly and walked towards Gu Huai. Only then did Gu Huai notice his height. He was almost the same as himself, with his waist-length hair casually draped over his shoulders. After the attack just now, he looked a little messy, making his face smaller and smaller. His face was very white, but it was different from Gu Huai's white. His face was flushed, but it looked like he was sickly without blood, and even paler. Although he looked very young, the fine lines at the corners of his eyes revealed that he didn't seem to be young anymore. Gu Huai was confused by his questioning. Dazed, I didn't expect this person's reaction to be so strong. After the man finished speaking, he seemed to realize that he had overreacted. He restrained himself, took a few steps back, and stopped talking to Gu Huai. Seeing that this person was so strange, Gu Huai thought again There are still people chasing him upstairs, and I don't know if they found the "hole" that made him fall here, Haihui Temple, hurry up and leave!Thinking of this, he walked towards the door quickly, but just a few steps away, the man strode over and grabbed his arm, pointed to the roof with his finger, and then made a silent movement with his hand on his lips, Gu Huai understood immediately, and stood there motionless. After a while, the man let go of his hand.

"Those people like to do these things, what are you doing up there?"

He helped himself just now, although Gu Huai didn't hear any movement just now, but he remembered that he couldn't hear the sound upstairs at all when he was downstairs, but he could hear the movement in the room downstairs clearly. He knew that it was very possible that he was on the top just now, but he didn't feel it, but he was very curious, why this person could figure it out, and before Gu Huai could answer, the person continued

"I can't get out of this room, if you don't believe me, try it yourself"

Gu Huai listened to his words and went forward to open the door. What suddenly appeared in front of him was a wall. Gu Huai then continued to push the window in the house. Sure enough, it was still a cold wall.

"How come?" This sentence is both a question and an exclamation

"I've been imprisoned here..." The man paused, as if recalling the specific time, and finally said sadly, "I can't remember exactly how many years, about six... seven years! Because.... "He hasn't seen Zezhi for six or seven years, and he didn't say the rest. As long as Zezhi is safe outside, let him stay here obediently for the rest of his life.

Gu Huai didn't notice his lonely expression when he was hiding his words, he was just thinking about how to get out, and asked curiously when he saw that he couldn't get out now

"Why are you locked up here?"

"Because I have something they want." Pointing to something similar to a seismograph in the corner, "See that? I can't stand the days when they listen to their movements. That's what I did to sense their movements. That's it." That's why I can clearly hear the movement you couldn't hear just now, its principle is very similar to the seismograph, but I have made its function more detailed by using Yin-Yang and Five Elements, so that it can perceive more subtle things."

Hearing his explanation, Gu Huai looked at the little thing on the ground. It was staying there motionless at the moment. It was hard to imagine that it was such a powerful thing. Gu Huai looked around the room. Full of all kinds of wood, as well as tools, yin and yang and five elements!Gu Huai suddenly remembered the lock he saw above, so he described the appearance of the lock according to his own memory. The man knew what he was talking about immediately after hearing Gu Huai start talking.

"Are you talking about Luban lock?"

"Lubansuo? So this is the legendary Lubansuo." Gu Huai suddenly realized, "Your Excellency must be a descendant of Luban, and I have known you for a long time!"

"I have admired your name for a long time? Which name do you admire?" the man joked

His words are not without reason. The rumored Lu Ban is a man who is proficient in various mechanism secrets, and can skillfully use the five elements of yin and yang to display his talents and develop various exquisite gadgets. Later, he will use his own mechanism techniques It was compiled into a book called "Lu Ban's Secret Art", which was all the rage, and everyone in the world wanted to read the content of this book, but since Lu Ban died, no one has seen him again. The book that records his life The secretary of all mechanics, there are rumors that he buried the secret book with himself, and there are also rumors that he passed the secret book to his only descendant, and even more that he is not dead, yes Falling in love with his male disciple, using feigned death to make those who covet the secret book give up their hearts, so that they can stay and fly together with their beloved. These rumors made Gu Huai feel funny. Qianhuansuo, it is estimated that he will even have a skeptical attitude towards the existence of Lu Ban!

Speaking of the thousand-ring lock, there is another allusion. At that time, Gu Huai was still young, and he was always full of curiosity about such strange-shaped things. Whenever he played with the thousand-ring lock, his father would play with that Suo is just like his own son, he grabs it every time, and puts it away carefully, not caring about little Gu Huai's snot and tears, at this time only his mother comes to coax him gently, telling him softly He said, "This is your uncle's treasure, don't take it casually!" Even though Gu Huai had never met the uncle his mother was talking about, he would obediently wipe away the tears on his face and nodded

"Forget it for a long time, such a title is nothing more than a prison for me!" After speaking, he returned to the table full of tools, and continued to play with the things that Gu Huai couldn't understand. Not idle, he began to study the tools on his desk, saw the man holding the chisel tool in one hand, and after a while a flat log appeared in front of Gu Huai, at this moment Gu Huai suddenly noticed In the cabinet behind the man, there is something that Gu Huai is all too familiar with.

Thousand Ring Lock!

In fact, the Thousand Rings Lock does not have a thousand rings, on the contrary, it does not have a single ring. Before, Gu Huai did not understand why this thing is called a Thousand Rings Lock. It is obviously composed of many wooden lattices, and each side is engraved with Different symbols, two of which are extra long and protruding. Gu Huai used to turn those grids, but he just didn't know what the two distinctive wooden grids were for. Until today, he saw the man behind him. Qianhuansuo, he suddenly understood, because the Qianhuansuo behind him has four protruding lattices, which can just accommodate the volume of the two pieces of wood in Gu Huai's house.

The man noticed Gu Huai's gaze, and asked jokingly, "What? You know it?"

Gu Huai nodded

Seeing Gu Huai's reaction, the man was stunned for a moment, and said excitedly, "Who are you, Gu Zezhi?"

"He is my uncle." Gu Huai said honestly. Zezhi is his uncle's name. His real name is Gu Qingyu. It is said that he and his brother, Gu Huai's father, Gu Qingfeng, have had a very good relationship since childhood, but brothers The two have different personalities, and their hobbies are also completely different. The elder brother loves martial arts, so he inherited the family's official career, and the younger brother loves literature. His mother told him that his father never mentioned him as a younger brother. It seemed that he didn't want to touch the sad things. In fact, he also asked about the whereabouts of his mother and uncle, but every time he came here, his mother just sighed, not at all like her usual expression Flying, he didn't understand why until he saw his uncle's tablet in the secret room of his father's study.

Hearing Gu Huai's answer, the man excitedly stepped forward and grabbed Gu Huai's arm, and said incoherently

"Zezhi is he okay now? Has he married a wife and had children?"

Gu Huai didn't know why this man cared so much about his uncle, but he still said truthfully, "I don't know, I've never seen him before!"

"How come? He should go home..." The man realized that he had lost his composure, let go of Gu Huai's hand, and leaned back on the table

"It turned out to be a relative of an old friend..." The man laughed and said, "I never thought that I would meet someone related to him in my lifetime, no matter what."

"I don't know why your Excellency cares about my uncle so much, but every time I ask about my uncle, my parents don't want to mention it. After so many years, he must be gone..." Seeing uncle seemed very important to this man. Unusual, so he didn't directly tell the other party that his uncle was no longer in this world, but only tentatively said

"Impossible." He was even more excited when he heard Gu Huai's words, "They said that they would let him go if I stayed here. Impossible!"

"Can I ask, what happened?" Gu Huai asked cautiously.
