Chapter 47: The Ghost Valley Order

Now that I've made my decision, I don't hesitate anymore.

I was in a state of confusion just now, and Qi Zhi was afraid that she would stimulate me if she continued to speak, so she pulled me aside to calm down, and as I got up and walked around, I was getting closer and closer to the bronze statue.

As the self-deprecating words were finished, I happened to walk to the bronze statue, I secretly gritted my teeth, for fear that I would regret it, and ruthlessly put the ring that I had already taken off into the right hand of the bronze statue.

Squeak.

As I placed the ring in the bronze statue, there was a sudden sound of the door opening in this empty space.

Unlike the previous mechanism on the stone plate, after the ring was put in, it was not the sound of the spring as I guessed, but it sounded like a door that had not been opened for a long time, and the sound made when it was suddenly opened, I looked around, but I didn't know where this mysterious door was.

Looking at the right hand of the bronze statue again, it was really tightly sealed, and even the unknown lines on the ring were filled tightly.

Except for the sound, there was no reaction around, Shen Lang leaned his head curiously to look at the bronze statue, and then asked me curiously.

"Brother Chuan, since the thing in the bronze statue's right hand is your mysterious ring, presumably the thing in the left hand is also related to you, do you have any ideas?"

I didn't answer, but looked back at Chunting, and my expression was no longer frustrated just now, but full of determination.

"Since I've decided that I won't regret it, now it's your turn, Chunting, take it out."

Qi Zhi looked at my reaction and asked curiously,

"Brother Chuan, it's Brother Chunting's turn to do something."

After the confusion just now, after the decision, there was no hesitation, and my thoughts suddenly became clear, and I finally remembered where I had seen the outline of the left-hand thing.

Chunting understood what I meant, rubbed his chin and smiled faintly, looking at my expression with both approval and helplessness.

"You've seen it, but I'm not going to hide it from you."

With his words, he reached into his arms again, and this time, took a token from his arms.

"If you choose to give up, I naturally don't need to take it out, if you choose to continue, then we can start."

After speaking, he threw the token in his hand to me seemingly casually.

I cautiously took the token, I have already seen this brand, on the night of Lingyun Pavilion, when the Netherworld sent Qin Guang and Ping to snatch the ancient painting, the Spring Pavilion had taken out this token, I was curious at the time, so I paid more attention to it.

And now, Chunting handed the token to me, and unlike the first glimpse, I finally had a chance to take a closer look.

This token is not gold or silver, flashing with a strange light, below it, square square, needless to say, above carved five legendary beasts, I looked carefully, it is the hidden mystery of Bi Fang, Jianxi, Baxia, Qi Zhi and Bai Ze, the five divine beasts carved together, the shape can coincide with the chaos in the left hand of the bronze statue.

The front of the token is engraved with two people, who are playing against each other in front of a stone table, next to which there are two jugs of wine, and a sentence is engraved next to the person who is playing the game.

A furious prince is afraid.

On the other side, a man sits on a two-wheeled cart pulled by a lion and tiger, followed by two men on horseback, one of whom is dressed like a military attaché and holds a flag with the word "Guigu" written on it.

Next to the person in the car, there was also a sentence.

Live in peace.

When the princes are angry, they are afraid, and they live in peace.

I looked at it carefully, and finally thought of the origin of these two sentences.

"When the princes are angry, they live in peace and rest in the world, and this token is engraved on the ghost valley down the mountain?"

Chunting did not answer, but determined the contents of the token in another way.

"This token is called Guanshan Order, also known as Guigu Order."

Guiguzi, surnamed Wang Mingxu, also known as Wang Chan, Taoist Xuanweizi, founded the Guigu sect during the Warring States Period.

A famous strategist, a representative figure of Taoism, a master of the art of war, and the originator of the Zongheng family, he is proficient in a hundred schools of learning, and calls himself Mr. Guigu because he lives in seclusion in Guigu.

He was penetrating through the heavens and the earth, and his wisdom was beyond the reach of man. For more than 2,000 years, the art of war has respected him as a saint, the vertical and horizontal family has respected him as the ancestor, the fortune teller has respected him as the ancestor, the strategist has respected him as the saint, the famous family has respected him as the ancestor, and the Taoists have respected him as the ancestor of Wang Chan. It is an academic master who cannot be bypassed in the period of the hundred schools of thought.

It is rumored that he has countless disciples, all of whom are amazing and brilliant people, Su Qin, Zhang Yi, Sun Bin, Pang Juan, Shang Ying, Lu Buwei, Bai Qi, Li Mu......

Su Qin used the technique of combining and longitudinal, and he was worthy of the seal of the six countries; Zhang Yi used the method of connecting horizontals to break through the vertical and horizontal, lobbying various countries as a prime minister, and was awarded the title of Wu Xinjun; Sun Bin's Tian Ji horse racing and "Sun Bin Art of War" are still circulating in the world; Shang Ying's reform of the law laid the foundation for the unification of the six kingdoms of Qin, and also determined the idea of the rule of law......

The Guigu vein can produce many people, the angry princes are afraid, and they live in peace in the world, these ten words are used in the Guigu vein, which is by no means an exaggeration.

When Lingyun Pavilion saw the fear of the angry princes, I should have guessed that this was related to the mysterious Ghost Valley, but at that time, my mind was full of doubts about Qin Guang and his equal identity, and I didn't have much association with this token.

And the story of the ghost valley going down the mountain on the back of this token is from "Warring States Policy". The story is that during the Warring States Period, the Yan State and the Qi State were at war, and Sun Bin, who served the Qi State, was captured by the enemy, and his master Guiguzi went to the rescue and led everyone down the mountain.

I have had the privilege of seeing the ghost valley descending jar imitated by later generations, and the content on this token is no different.

A group of sweepers to the river stream Banqiao, riding on the two-wheeled chariot with tigers and leopards, there are two foot soldiers in front, there is a young general riding a horse with a bow, the right hand shakes a flag embroidered with the word "Guigu", across the mountain stone, a civil official wearing the Song Dynasty court uniform and crown rides a horse to look back and look forward, the left hand holds a wat, the charm is vivid, the painting is smooth.

It's certainly no coincidence that the two are so similar.

Guan Shan has been inherited for thousands of years, even if the secrecy measures are done well, it is impossible that there is no scattered information that has not been circulated in the world, plus the two names of the token in the hand received by Chunting......

So......

"The Guigu lineage is the power of Guanshan, right?"

I looked at Chunting and although it was an inquiry, my tone was full of affirmation.

Chunting nodded, retrieved the Guigu Order from my hand, and began a detailed explanation to me.

Even if Guanshan is mysterious, it is inevitable that there will be contact with ordinary people, and naturally there will be some news coming out, after thinking about it, he feels that it is better to be sparse, so it is difficult to hide such a secret completely, rather than blindly hiding, it is better to let out the wind, so that the world does not pay attention to Guanshan itself.

So, the leader ordered his henchmen to lead a group of people to go out and set up their own doors, as the foundation of Guanshan in the world, and this confidant was Guiguzi.

At that time, it was the Warring States Period, Guanshan was full of talents, and all kinds of Taoist magical powers had not been lost.

It is precisely because of these supernatural secret techniques that the Guigu lineage is so mysterious and omnipotent in the eyes of the world, because what he has mastered is not a skill that mortals should have.

Shen Lang's expression was full of surprise, he looked around the Spring Pavilion left and right, and asked repeatedly.

"So, you are not only the leader of Guanshan, but also the contemporary heir of the Guigu lineage?"

"You're wrong."

Chunting's answer surprised everyone.

"I am indeed the contemporary Guigu Sect Master, but I am not the contemporary leader of Guanshan."

Xue Nan's expression was even more surprised, along the way, the people we met all respectfully called Chunting Lord Dongyue, is there another hidden secret?

"How is it possible, Chunting, whether it is Hebo or the Netherworld, don't they all call you the leader Dongyue?"

Chun Ting put the Guigu Order in his hand on the left hand of the bronze statue, and looked at me and said faintly.

"To be precise, I'm just the acting leader of Guanshan, and when the real leader arrives, I will naturally retire."

Before I could ask what this sentence meant, as the Guigu Order was tightly inlaid on the bronze statue, I heard a loud noise, and the bronze statue actually moved to the side by itself, and on the flat ground behind the bronze statue, a downward passage appeared.

Without waiting for us to react, Chunting retrieved the Guigu Order and my ring from the bronze statue's hand, and was the first to walk into the passage, opening in a quiet way as he went, sounding like he was speaking to me.

"Now that you've come this far, don't hesitate, there are things in here that may remind you of something."
