Bulwark of Light

Chapter 361 A Piece of Snow (Big Chapter! Ask for a Monthly Pass!)

What the world sees is often the appearance.

So what the world believes...is often what it wants to believe.

Everyone was willing to believe that when Bai Xiu and Gu Shen met, they would fight... So from the moment Bai Xiu entered Qingzuo, the deep water forum began to discuss the situation in the cemetery in a few hours.

The news is powerful.

The impact is reflected in, but not limited to, the prison's handicap quickly filled up and began to close.

But I'm afraid no one would have imagined that the Qingzhong Cemetery at this moment is quieter and more harmonious than any other day in the past.

Misty.

When Gu Shen came to the top of the mountain, there was already a figure standing at the foot of the mountain, that person stood patiently in the original waiting position, as if he had guessed that Gu Shen would definitely come.

"I'm here to thank you."

Bai Xiu saluted again, "Thank you for those two reminders...it saved me a lot of trouble."

Without those two reminders.

Although the matter is not unsolvable, it will be really troublesome, very troublesome.

"you are welcome."

Since Master Qianye wants to help himself.

Then this favor, Gu Shen happened to accept it smoothly.

He smiled and asked, "Has the matter been resolved?"

"Half solved."

Bai Xiu pointed to the outside of the cemetery, his eyebrows stretched, and he said, "That person will die tonight...he won't be buried in the Qing Tomb."

That person, referring to Bai Buzheng, is a damned person.

There's still half the matter left unresolved.

The dead man who blocked Bai Xiu's knife was the one who should have been alive... Now he is dead and needs to be buried.

"If you are willing to go down the mountain, I would like to ask you to do me another favor... use divination to choose a good location in the outer mausoleum."

Bai Xiu spoke again and said, "I want to bury Yu Shu, tonight."

when speaking.

Gu Shen has already started to descend the mountain.

Bai Xiu watched the mountain mist swaying in front of him, spreading bit by bit, and finally, from the mist scattered by the waterfall, a black-clothed figure about his own age gradually walked out.

In fact, the two have no similarities, face, expression, temperament... To be more precise, Gu Shen and Bai Xiu are like the color of the clothes they are wearing at the moment, or the two colors that burst out when they comprehended the breath of spring. A ray of spiritual glow.

One black, one white.

The breaths of the two are completely opposite.

And they run counter to each other.

"Blocking a knife for you and dying... Is such a person not qualified to enter the Bai's ancestral hall?"

After Gu Shen asked this sentence, seeing Bai Xiu's silence, he understood the answer.

Yu Shu's surname is not Bai.

This is a person with a foreign surname.

There was still a cold killing intent between Bai Xiu's eyebrows.

It is not difficult to see that although the reminder of those two names saved him a lot of trouble... But the whole process still broke out a lot of trouble.

"Bai's ancestral hall, it doesn't matter if you don't go."

Bai Xiu said succinctly: "Actually... that's not a good place."

……

……

It is not difficult to choose a stone tablet for Yu Shu.

In fact, there is no need to use "divination"... Gu Shen's blazing fire can see things that ordinary people cannot see, such as the flow of extraordinary essence, and in the cemetery of Qingzuka, the richness and thinness of extraordinary essence , is a manifestation of the direction of the formation.

The so-called "good location" is a place with rich source quality.

Actually, it's not that hard to see this.

Gu Shen knew that in such a short period of time, Baixiu went back and came back to Qingzuka... probably just to see himself again.

And choosing the stele...is just a reason to invite me out of the mountain to meet each other.

"Just here."

Gu Shen came to a mountain forest in the outer mausoleum. There were no other monuments standing upright here, and it was very peaceful. The rain was blocked by the forest leaves. Except for the large formation operating all year round, the extremely bad weather would not come Within this cemetery.

Standing in the forest, there will be a feeling of quietness and openness.

"it is good."

Bai Xiu nodded. He didn't wantonly use his abilities, but only condensed a ray of thunder, dug the soil, and dug out a rough big rock. He put his hands together and slowly cut the stone surface.

Gu Shen narrowed his eyes.

[Thunder World Walker] It should be the power of thunder from the natural department... a bright white light appeared in the air.

An unstable arc of thunder was suppressed by the white sleeves incomparably docilely.

The stone face was cut completely and soon carved into a stele.

The white sleeves pointed to engrave the name of the sacrifice, and the name of Yu Shu was engraved on the stele.

Afterwards, the thunder light in his palm gradually dissipated.

Just holding the stone tablet like this, slowly inserting it into the mud, then dusting off the dust with the palm of your hand, and cleaning it carefully.

"I heard that the pattern in the Qing Tomb has a mysterious connection with Mr. Gu Changzhi's 'Fire Seed'...Even if there is no body, it can still summon the source quality." Bai Xiu squatted in front of the stone tablet, without turning his head, and murmured Said: "Is this really the case?"

Master Qianye's voice echoed in Gu Shen's mind.

"No."

So Gu Shen shook his head.

"Then if I bring back the body... the extraordinary source has been exhausted, can I summon it?" Bai Xiu felt a little regretful, but he didn't give up.

Gu Shen asked.

"There's no problem with that."

The mausoleum guard said: "The source quality in this world follows the law of summoning. If there is separation, there will be gathering... Even the dead can still call their own source quality, but the distance is too far, the illusory summoning, It takes a long time."

Gu Shen nodded.

He also squatted in front of the stele, and said softly: "Yes...but it will take a long time to complete the summoning."

The condensation of extraordinary source quality is like rain.

It takes a long time for the raindrops to fall, fall to the ground, evaporate, rise again, and gather back into rain clouds... It takes a long time.

"It's okay, he's had a long, long time now."

Bai Xiu said: "As long as I can go back to the right place...that's fine."

This is a more suitable resting place than Bai's ancestral hall.

"Before I knew your identity, I wanted to come to Qingzuka again..." Bai Xiu said slowly: "But I didn't think about inviting you down the mountain at that time, I just wanted to express my thanks."

really.

I know the identity of Bai Xiu.

Bai Xiu also knew his identity.

Gu Shen thought for a while, and announced a name: "Bai Lu?"

"Is this the result of divination... or is it a random guess?" Bai Xiu squinted his eyes, and he looked at Gu Shen. The distance between the two was very close, less than one meter apart.

Gu Shen could see a slender, snow-white light in the depths of Baixiu's dark pupils.

This ray of light is not dazzling.

Just a while ago.

He should be looking at him like this through the thick fog... Maybe his gaze is dozens of times brighter than this.

"Of course I guessed it," Gu Shen said calmly, "Actually, I don't know how to do divination."

Sometimes, those who tell the truth will not be believed.

Every word that Gu Shen said was too in line with the status of "Heir of Divination".

First leave an "ominous word" and put Bailu in the Zongtang.

Everything that followed broke out in the Zongtang.

And his own identity... From the current point of view, it seems that a good foreshadowing was laid many days ago.

"I prefer to believe that all of this is within your calculations." Bai Xiu smiled, "For so many years, no one has ever made Bai Lu so docile, willing to study and meditate in the Zongtang."

Bai Xiu looked at Gu Shen seriously for tens of seconds.

The slender white light in his eyes slowly dissipated.

It was as if a cat had extinguished that vertical pupil in the middle of the night.

The fiery flame flickering between Gu Shen's brows also slowly extinguished.

"She said you are a real genius." Bai Xiu said softly, "So I want to meet you..."

"They all say that you are the real genius." Gu Shen said with a smile, "So... I have always wanted to meet you."

Bai Xiu was taken aback.

"You are indeed different from the people I have seen before."

He immediately smiled and said, "I can't see through you... and I can't see through that wisp of fire either."

"Is that a compliment?"

"of course."

"Then, thank you for your compliment."

"If you stay in Nagano longer, you'll know...everyone is waiting for us to fight." Gu Shen's mood was a little delicate, and he said with a smile: "I thought we would really fight." field."

"Sounds very interesting." Bai Xiu said, "but now...is not a good time."

This sentence is very euphemistic.

It was too late for Gu Shen to start his extraordinary practice.

There is already a big gap between the two of them.

It is extremely difficult to catch up.

Not to mention... now there is a huge disparity in strength.

"Extraordinary practice is a big thing. Winning or losing is a very small thing." Bai Xiu stood up and said, "I will participate in next year's rookie competition... The original reason is very simple, just because I want to Use the best state to meet the 'Dream of Tinder'."

He stretched out his hand and said, "And now, there is another reason."

This sentence means the opponent.

This hand means friend.

Gu Shen also stood up.

He briefly shook hands with Bai Xiu.

Then he said seriously: "I'm sorry... I won't participate in the rookie competition...not this year, nor next year. If you can't win, you won't, and if you win, you won't either."

This was beyond Bai Xiu's expectation.

"As you said... extraordinary practice is a big thing. Winning or losing is a very small thing."

Gu Shen said slowly, "That's why I didn't participate."

This is indisputable?

No.

This is another kind of struggle.

Everyone in Snow Forbidden City is vying for the leader of this rookie battle... But Gu Shen doesn't care about this false name, he cares more about his "learning ancient prose" and those black flowers in "Shenci Mountain".

The "Tao" he fights day and night is not in the Forbidden Snow City.

"I understand."

Bai Xiu murmured thoughtfully, "No wonder Master Qianye accepted you as the successor of divination."

……

……

"There is one thing I want to remind you."

"This assassination... is very likely, and it's not over yet."

The long night will dawn.

After thinking about it, Gu Shen decided to pass on his thoughts to Bai Xiu: "Maybe you don't care what the assassin's intentions are, but if you want to plan such an exquisite and perfect plan... you must not rely on just one person."

These words sounded like an instigation against Mrs. Bai.

But in fact, Gu Shen didn't have any thoughts in this regard.

"The conspirator is in Nagano, and the assassin is in the tundra... The elder who is about to be executed by the Bai family is only a member of the sect's account book on weekdays. He has no direct conflict with you. No matter how displeased you are, it is impossible to take such a risk Big risk, hire a murderer to kill you."

Gu Shen looked at Yu Shu's tablet, and said softly: "The cause and effect that divination can find is direct cause and effect... In other words, divination can tell that the tundra killer was hired by him, but The person who really wants to kill you is most likely still hiding in the dark."

Bai Xiu didn't speak.

He just listened quietly.

"There are roughly two sets of rules in the world, one on the surface and one on the ground."

"The five families have abided by the underground rules established by each other for hundreds of years. No matter how much they try to tear their skins, they will not attract external forces to resolve internal conflicts... But in the past few years when they have been sleeping in the seat of God, the conflicts have intensified. , with no intention of stopping."

Gu Shen deliberately paused.

Bai Xiu said: "You want to say that someone has started to violate the rules of the underground."

Gu Shen nodded slowly.

The reason why there is such an idea.

It was because of the meeting with the old man of the Gu family not long ago.

Gu Shen vaguely felt... a big storm seemed to be brewing in the underground of Nagano.

If it is as expected.

Some of the five major families violated the rules, "colluded" with external forces, and prepared to reshuffle the cards...then it won't be long before the entire Nagano will face unprecedented shocks!
"I know what you want to say, it's just..."

Bai Xiu slowly moved his head and looked at Gu Shen, "Even if it's true...we can't do anything."

"Of course, personal power is limited." Gu Shen said calmly: "What I want to say is... no matter where you are, you need to be careful. Because such an assassination is likely to happen a second time, the first time three times."

Bai Xiu fell into silence.

Kill him... What benefits can Bai get?
At first glance, it would be harmful to the Bai family. How could anyone in the Bai family expect him to die?

But think about it...not really.

The "bloodline theory" that has been passed down for 600 years has already been broken in his body. With his current speed of entry, the dazzling brilliance of the eldest son Bai Chen will be completely covered up in a few years.

And at that time, how should the position of "Patriarch" of the Bai family be passed on?
Would the elders really be willing to pass on the position of "Patriarch" to an orphan from Jiangbei with a humble background and blood?
And sometimes, whether you want it or not, you can't help yourself.

If you don't want it, someone will stuff it into your hand.

And at that time... there will be another group of people trying to chop off your hand.

Or... take your head off.

"You just said that the assassin...is in the tundra?"

Gu Shen continued: "If the Bai family successfully captures the assassin, verifies his identity, and executes him...then some of the previous doubts can be dispelled. But I always have a premonition that the assassin will not be caught. He's likely to escape the tundra."

When making friends, don't make shallow and deep friendships.

Speaking of which, it's already a little "deep".

Gu Shen quickly stopped.

He said seriously: "In short...you have to be careful."

A ray of dawn falls in the forest.

Gu Shen and Bai Xiu stood in front of the stone tablet.

The clouds and mists dispersed, the forest leaves rustled, and the birds chirped softly.

A ray of light that could not shine into the Qingzhong forest all year round fell on Yu Shu's stone tablet.

The white sleeve looked at Gu Shen meaningfully.

He didn't agree or refute, just nodded slightly, and said softly and seriously: "These words... I remember."

……

……

"Bai Xiu hasn't come out yet...but, Gu Shen came out first!"

There were quite a few people around Kiyotsuka.

Because I dare not disturb the cleanliness of the cemetery.

They were waiting at the exit of the cemetery.

Unexpectedly, after one night, the gust of wind and rain cleared away.

The first one to walk out of Qingzuo was not Bai Xiu, but Gu Shen!

Gu Shen, who walked out of the Qingzhong Mausoleum, had a complicated expression on his face.

Although he had expected that there would be many onlookers wherever Bai Xiu went, he never expected...there would be so many people, and most of them were young and beautiful women.

When I took advantage of Baixiu's entry into the city, I sneaked into Qingzuka, just to avoid the hustle and bustle of the world.

Dodging thousands of times, what should come always comes, you can't hide, you can't avoid it.

When the crowd saw Gu Shen come out, they were a little disappointed.

"You kid... you're good enough!"

An iron hand patted Gu Shen's shoulder, and then exerted force suddenly. A tall figure squeezed out of the crowd slowly and powerfully, leading Gu Shen to the car. Luo Yu's deep voice sounded, "I didn't expect to be able to Come out alive...life is really big enough!"

come out alive?

It's unlucky... Gu Shen smiled wryly, "Brother Luo, what do you mean, are you expecting something to happen to me?"

Luo Yu chuckled, and said: "That's not dare, if something happens to you, I'm afraid the young master and the old man will hold me accountable!"

There was a hint of gloating in this smile.

"Gu Shen...how come you...unscathed?!"

Someone's sigh came from the back seat of the car.

Gu Shen turned his head and saw the familiar Mr. Gong, and Shen Li with his eyes closed.

"How much did you buy?" Gu Shen realized the reason for Gong Zi's ugly expression, and said with a sneer, "It couldn't be that Stud bought me and I was beaten to death by Bai Xiu?"

"How is it possible!" Gong Zi said angrily, "Am I that kind of person?"

"The news of Bai Xiu entering Qingzuka last night was too sudden." Shen Li opened his eyes, and said lightly, "When someone took me to the prison, the handicap was already closed, let alone Stud, he didn't even have time to place a bet. Note."

Gu Shen was a little confused: "Then why do you have a mournful face..."

"It's the fault of the thieves, and I must make a fortune." Shen Li in the back seat of the car stretched out a hand, showing the new jade bracelet on his wrist, and said indifferently: "Brother Gong, I am willing to admit defeat... Now this one The sealed item is mine now."

Gong Zi gritted her teeth, pretended to be generous, and waved her hand, "It was originally given to you...don't let me see it!"

Shen Li closed his eyes and fell asleep again.

Gong Zi came over, unbelievingly twirling the fabric of Gu Shen's clothes, with a confused face, "Brother Gu... how did you do it?"

He did feel the breath of Baixiu.

Gu Shen... definitely met Bai Xiu!
These two people didn't even fight?

No... It should be said that Gu Shen was not beaten by Bai Xiu? !

"Obviously, Nagano is not just about fighting and killing, but also about people's understanding of the world."

Gu Shen used two fingers in disgust to move away Gong Zi's salty pig's trotters, and calmly asked: "Can't I have a long talk with Bai Xiu all night, just sit and talk?"

Gong Zi frantically shook her head: "Anyone has the possibility...but Baixiu..."

"What's wrong with Bai Xiu?" Gu Shen raised his eyebrows.

"Bai Xiu will not 'discuss' with any peers." Gong Zi smiled wryly: "Even if there is similar verbal communication, it can only be 'speaking'."

Gu Shen was silent for a while.

Yes.

In terms of extraordinary cultivation attainments... Bai Xiu is much higher than others.

"He was indeed a very strong man."

Thinking back to the gaze in front of the stele, each other's trials.

Bai Xiu didn't see through his "Four Seasons Wilderness".

Similarly, Gu Shen's blazing fire did not see the reality of [Thunder World Walker].

Gu Shen took a light breath to adjust his mood.

There is still a long way to go.

You...you don't need to compare yourself with outsiders, you just need to walk your own way!
After calming down, Gu Shen glanced at the backseat, and said with a smile: "Brother Gong, it's a blessing in disguise. Although you lost a sealed item...but I want to tell you some good news."

Gong Zi was a little perplexed.

"Baixiu will not participate in this year's rookie competition." Gu Shen said softly, "You can start preparing for the competition."

It took Gong Zi several seconds to react.

This is unbelievable news!
Bai Xiu deliberately returned to Nagano, and did not participate in this year's "newcomer battle"!
That being said... there is hope for my "Tinder Dream"!

……

……

The news that Bai Xiu gave up this year's rookie battle... first spread throughout the Bai Clan Hall, and then spread throughout Nagano.

This is great news for those young transcendents who are eager to win the championship and choose to wait and see at the last moment.

For the Bai family.

The waywardness of white sleeves is sometimes a kind of trouble.

[Wind Pupil] Monitor the room.

"If you give up the game, just give up..."

"This year is no different than next year."

Bai Chengong stood by his side.

The man leaned back on the chair and leaned back slightly. He looked at the huge screen, spoke softly, and asked, "It's been a long time for sampling. About that boy named Gu Shen... What useful things did [Feng Tong] capture?" information?"

Layers of code began to flow on that huge screen.

[Deep Sea] Driven by authority, he began to mobilize Gu Shen's "information" in Nagano from the central database.

Ever since he stepped into Nagano, countless pairs of eyes have been watching this boy.

One scene after another was reflected on the huge screen and divided into small squares one after another.

Huge amounts of information are sifted through.

These squares are quickly eliminated, leaving a useful "picture".

The deep sea quickly captured one picture after another... Those pictures have one thing in common, that is, Gu Shen's brows were on fire.

"S-level ability, will it be a simple spiritual system?"

The man's voice was thick and powerful, and he chuckled softly: "I don't believe the files of the tribunal, nor the report submitted by Zhou Jiren, an old fox..."

"Father." Bai Chen said softly, "In the Snow Forbidden City, I came into contact with Gu Shen from a distance... For a moment, I felt a familiar aura about him."

"Oh?"

"It's not that blazing fire..."

Bai Chen thought about it seriously, hesitated a bit, and said: "I can't say... That power seems to have resonated with my blood, and produced suppression. But it just disappeared in an instant."

The man narrowed his eyes, lost in thought.

He zoomed in on the picture in the night of Snow Forbidden City, which was the picture of Gu Shen being dragged into the field of [Mantra] by Han Dang, and [Wind Pupil] captured a complete and coherent image.

The moment the field spreads.

Gu Shen's shadow seemed to turn pale for a moment.

It was snow...

This piece of snow successfully attracted the attention of the Patriarch of the Bai family. He frowned and stared at the video. In the eyes of the man, the normal video was slowed down by hundreds or thousands of times.

He went through every frame carefully.

Then an incomprehensible, terrifying thing was discovered.

The moment he landed, a patch of snow appeared on Gu Shen's shadow.

He didn't see clearly.

How did this snow appear?

……

……

(I've been waiting for a long time, and it's another day, so I'm asking for a monthly ticket confidently!)
