Although Gu Xun found Xue Nu for testing, he was not satisfied with the person, mainly because of Xue Nu’s character.
In Gu Xun's opinion, although this girl is beautiful, has a cold temperament at first glance, and seems to be relatively strong, she is actually a little too paranoid and acts decisively and radically. It cannot be said that this kind of character is bad, but...
Not suitable for wielding the Ice Soul Sword.
Of course, although the Seven Swords each have their own special powers, they are not as powerful as the magic weapons in Xianxia novels. They do not have requirements for the sword master's character. In fact, it is Gu Xun's own problem.
The Changhong Sword and the Ice Soul Sword are more special to him than the other five swords, or in other words, the Rainbow Cat and the Blue Rabbit are more special than the other five of the Seven Heroes.
Gu Xun and the two of them had a life-long friendship. When he was still very weak, Hongmao and the others saved his life more than once, so he was not willing to make do with the sword masters of these two swords. The Changhong Sword is okay, he uses it himself, and if no one is suitable, he might as well not look for it first, but the Ice Soul Sword itself has high requirements, and coupled with his subjective will, the two are superimposed, and he wants to find a sword master who satisfies him...
It’s difficult!
But if he really can't find a suitable candidate, Gu Xun will have no choice but to choose a taller one from these barely useful alternatives.
………………
On the other side, the snow girl who found the guest room didn't bother to clean herself up, so she hurriedly lay down and rested.
The series of things that happened tonight made her a little exhausted mentally and physically, and she couldn't care less about her appearance that she always took care of in the past. She just wanted to lie down and rest first.
But after she really lay down and calmed down, she couldn't fall asleep at all - as long as she tried to empty her mind and sleep without thinking about anything, it would be counterproductive and thousands of thoughts would emerge out of her control. p>
Yan Chunjun lying in a pool of blood, Gao Jianli lying next to the body, the inexplicable actions of the Qin State Master Gu Xun, the theoretical help of the Mohist family, the path he could take in the future, and even the past... all kinds of thoughts came to his mind.
, has no beginning or end, is chaotic, and is completely out of the control of the snow girl. The first breath is reminiscing about the past, and the next breath is worrying about the future, and it is mixed with tonight's chaos from time to time.
Chaos and disorder occupied everything in her mind, leaving her unable to rest or think.
However, she was not the only one who couldn't sleep in Ji City at this time. Almost half of the city was unable to sleep with her.
After Gu Xun took her away, Jing Ke also quietly carried away Gao Jianli, who was only half breathing, leaving behind a mess and corpses all over Yanchunjun's mansion.
It didn't take long for the servants of the palace to discover all this. The king's brother was killed. Naturally, the matter had to be reported to the palace as soon as possible. King Yan, who was sleeping soundly, had to get up for this. He was so angry when he got up in the cold weather.
In addition, his own brother, the most powerful monarch of the Yan Kingdom, was actually murdered in the Yan Kingdom. Naturally, the King of Yan was very happy or furious.
As for Yan Wangxi, who didn't have much real ability but was pretty good at the power game, the first thing he thought about when his brother died was his own son.
Yan Dan and the Mo family had some deep friendship, and Wang Xi of Yan knew about it. Of course, Yan Dan deliberately exposed this to Yan Wang Xi, because even if he didn't take the initiative to expose this, Yan Chunjun would not let it go.
Pass the opportunity to make a small report.
King Xi of Yan suspected that this murder was committed by his son to ensure that his power would not be completely usurped by his uncle during the few years he had been out of Qin as a hostage, so he immediately arranged for people to investigate the Mo family.
Of course, at the same time, they also sent people as quickly as possible to completely block the city, and wanted to arrest the murderer determined based on the situation on the scene - Feixue Pavilion Dancer Snow Girl.
After working on it all night long, Yan Wangxi finally got nothing.
As for the murderer, thousands of soldiers searched almost the entire city and could not find any trace of Xue Nu. As for the Mo family, they did not find any big move. The only special thing was that the Mo family arranged for everyone to evacuate everyone in Feixue Pavilion last night.
, but based on the friendship between the Mo family and Yan Dan, after the incident where Yan Chunjun forcibly invited Xue Nu, the Mo family could not directly rescue Xue Nu by Yan Chun Jun. Is it possible that the other members of Feixue Pavilion who were considered insignificant could not be rescued as well?
?
After all, the Mohist school was also one of the two most prominent schools. It was impossible for King Yan to make a fuss over such a trivial matter, so he could only temporarily acquiesce that the Mohist school had nothing to do with the matter, and angrily instructed the investigators of the case to do their best to trace the whereabouts of Xue Nu. However, Xue Nu was staying in Gu Xun's residence at this time. This place was one of the few places in the city that would not be subject to interrogation. No one wanted to touch the bad luck of the new national master of the Qin State who was in the limelight recently. Moreover, no one would have thought that
Gu Xun will protect Xue Nu, even though he and Yan Chunjun seemed to be jealous in the Feixue Pavilion a few days ago.
………………
Early the next morning, Yuki-onna got up. Although she didn't sleep for long, she still woke up according to her usual biological clock.
Although she got up, she didn't dare to leave the room rashly. Yan Chunjun died last night. She didn't need to think about it to know that the whole city was definitely searching for her now, so it was best to hide.
In this way, Xue Nu stayed in the house until Gu Xun came to find her.
"Are you up already?" Gu Xun didn't take into account any differences between men and women, and opened the door directly and came in. He didn't believe that the snow girl who almost had a life-and-death situation last night would be in the mood to take off her clothes and sleep in his own home, where she was a stranger. p>
As expected when she came in, she was neatly dressed and sitting on the bed. Her slightly haggard appearance dimmed her brilliance, but she was still a great beauty.
When Xue Nu saw Gu Xun come in, she immediately stood up, nodded and said, "Sir Gu..."
Considering that Gu Xun was a national master, Xue Nu chose the all-purpose title 'Sir'. Gu Xun didn't care about the title issue and waved to her, "Since you're up, come out."
The snow girl nodded slightly, her snow-white hair fluttering slightly, and she didn't leave in a hurry. She asked first, "The whole city should be searching for me now. I don't know if it's convenient..."
"It's okay, no one will search for me without opening their eyes." Gu Xunhun waved his hand nonchalantly.
After hearing this, Xue Nu stopped worrying and followed Gu Xun out of the guest room, returning to the main hall where they chatted last night.
At this time, there was a person here specifically looking for the Snow Girl, the Six-fingered Black Man.
Because of Yan Wangxi's suspicion of the Mo family, the Six-Fingered Black Man naturally became the focus of attention. He had the ability to get rid of Yan Wangxi's people, but he couldn't do so in order not to be suspected, so it took a lot of time before he successfully escaped safely.
Out of the sight of others, I came to Gu Xun secretly, otherwise he would have arrived before dawn.
