Chapter 634 Gift

Xiangchen stood outside the library with a complicated expression.

The "mental control" he suffered was lifted by Gu Shen when he was in the main hall. The sentence "the more fanatical you are, the easier it is to make mistakes" directly awakened him.

And Gu Shen's "dream" also began to unfold at that time.

In fact, what Xiangchen did after that was very simple——

That is to stay outside the library and wait for Gu Shen to solve the problem.

So he stood outside the door, watching his disciples, like marionettes, enter the "library" with Gu Shen that blocked the signal.

The feeling of watching this scene happen is very subtle.

Perhaps before the "mental control" was lifted, Gu Shen looked at himself like this... falling into a dream but not knowing it.

"Mr. Xiao Gu, thank you for your help."

Xiangchen said in a hoarse voice: "Without you, I don't know how long I would have been kept in the dark..."

"polite."

Gu Shen smiled slightly.

Xiangchen entered the library.

At first glance, I saw Li Bing "nailed" to the book wall.

This student...this student that I was once proud of!

Xiangchen's eyes were filled with pain, helplessness, and self-blame... all kinds of mixed feelings. In the end, all these emotions dissipated, leaving only a touch of sadness.

In the duel just now, Gu Shen did not completely block him out.

Standing at the door of the library, he heard most of the conversations inside.

If Mr. Xiao Gu hadn't been superior in skills and started the dream in advance... He would be dead today. He didn't understand what Guangming City had promised that could make Li Bing so willing to sacrifice his life for it?

"I didn't kill him directly."

Gu Shen said: "But I erased his 'loyalty' to Guangming City. When he wakes up, he will become a 'dark child'."

He did not completely block the conversation in the library.

But there are some important contents that cannot be divulged, such as his "three transcendences".

It's just that... Gu Shen was not prepared to hide the matter of "brainwashing" Li Bing.

"Your choice is correct..."

Xiangchen took a deep breath and said, "Killing him may not be a good idea."

Li Bing is the chess piece laid by Guangming City.

Sometimes, when you find a chess piece and remove it immediately, it may not be the best thing.

Being silent and using it for your own use is also a good choice.

It is not easy to train a Dongning City garrison. For Beizhou, killing Li Bing will actually arouse the vigilance of Guangming City.

"This matter is not trivial. I reported it to the attic just outside the library."

Grand Duke Xiangchen took a deep breath and said: "Mr. Xiao Gu, this 'spiritual seed' you planted..."

"It doesn't matter."

Gu Shen smiled and said: "I don't want to get involved in this mess. Even if you don't report it, I will tell Zhuxue to handle it. The Holy Inquisitor's infiltration of the military is your private matter in Beizhou.

How to deal with it is also a headache for you. When Her Majesty the Queen sends someone here, I will transfer the control of the 'Spiritual Seed'."

Hearing this, Grand Duke Xiangchen breathed a sigh of relief.

He was still worried about how to talk to Gu Shen... Now it seems that this little Mr. Gu is actually a person who "knows the big picture".

"Zhuxue will send someone soon."

Xiangchen quickly stretched out his hand to invite Gu Shen and said, "While you wait, please allow me to introduce to you... the 'ancient texts' I have collected."

…

…

About an hour.

Outside the dusty manor, an airship arrived.

Grand Duke Zhuxue arrived in person.

Due to Xiangchen's report, he deliberately took several strong men with him to set off, and the servants of the manor who had received orders from Xiangchen opened the door early and waited for Zhuxue's arrival.

It was a dusty journey all the way to the library.

"Lord Xiangchen! Mr. Gu!"

Before anyone arrives, the sound comes out first.

However, Zhuxue did not expect that after he entered, he saw a very warm scene.

Soft light fell, and there was peace in the library.

Grand Duke Xiangchen and Gu Shen were sitting in front of the desk, chatting happily.

There are stacks of ancient Chinese characters on the table.

Before Zhuxue pushed the door open——

"Mr. Xiao Gu's talent... is really astonishing. It can be said that it is difficult to find in a hundred years. The number of 'ancient texts' in Qingzhong Cemetery is so complicated that even if I quit all official duties and study quietly, it will probably take me ten years to understand it clearly."

The two of them sat and talked, talking leisurely.

After a conversation, Xiangchen became more and more fond of Gu Shen.

He learned that the young man in front of him had just spent a little more than a year to comprehend the ancient poems in the cemetery!

What is this concept?

To describe him as extremely talented is to insult Gu Shen.

In Wuzhou, countless geniuses have tried to comprehend "ancient prose" for so many years... Unfortunately, extraordinary cultivation and comprehension of ancient prose are completely two different paths. Even geniuses rated as "S-level" can learn ancient prose at a slower rate.

It may not go any faster than ordinary people.

In the past, the most talented learner of ancient literature that Xiangchen had ever seen was actually Master Qianye.

only……

Qianye is not from Wuzhou.

In fact, he knew this secret. When Qianye was brought back by Gu Changzhi, he also happened to travel here. The first "ancient prose" was learned by Professor Xiangchen Qianye... It didn't take long for the two of them to figure it out together.

, Qianye’s learning speed is getting faster and faster, as if he has an innate ability to comprehend "ancient prose".

However, Xiangchen was soon surpassed. At this point, we can only look back and sigh.

"Your Majesty, you are welcome."

Gu Shen had no choice but to smile.

He never thought that he could learn ancient Chinese very quickly.

First, because Gu Shen's practice was basically done alone, without comparison...

The second reason is because he saw a real "monster".

Chu Ling!

It only took Chu Ling a few hours to comprehend the entire ancient text in Qingzhong Cemetery... maybe even shorter!

Gu Shen did not dare to take the initiative to tell Xiang Chen this news, for fear that the Grand Duke's mentality would be unbalanced.

"As expected of Qianye's favored disciple."

Xiangchen sighed with emotion: "Her taste has always been better than mine... Speaking of which, she also accepted a second student. According to external rumors, it seems to be a woman?"

"good."

Gu Shen nodded.

Chu Ling's news was well covered up with the help of the Baishu Divine Throne.

So far, no one in Nagano has any doubts about the identity of the "guardian" of the cemetery...

"What kind of woman is she? She can become a 'guardian of the mausoleum'. Could it be that her talent in ancient Chinese is better than that of you, Xiao Gu?"

Xiangchen let out a long sigh and said, "If I have the chance to go to Dongzhou again, I will definitely pay a visit."

Chu Ling's ancient writing talent was indeed better than his own...and more than a little better. Gu Shen also let out a long sigh in his heart.

Just listen to Xiangchen murmur: "Now that the White God Seat is in charge of the cemetery, I'm afraid it won't be that easy to enter the cemetery..."

Gu Shen quickly smiled and said: "If the Grand Duke is leaving, please let me know. Gu will sweep the couch to welcome you at any time."

I dare not say anything else.
