Chapter 468: Confusing
The old man glanced at the remaining black-clothed people with his wise eyes, and then waved his hand: "You guys go down first and take care of the rest." I don't need you to accompany me here, I'll call you again if there's something to do. ”
"Yes."
Several black-clothed men bowed to Situ Shanping in unison, and then quickly left the hall.
Seeing that they had gone away, the old man stood up.
His back and back were straight, and he didn't feel weak at all.
Situ Shanping turned his head and glanced at me meaningfully: "Let's go, it's inconvenient here, let's talk in another place." Come with me, all of you! ”
As he spoke, he walked deeper into the hallway without looking back.
"This ...... What the hell is going on? Why don't I understand it at all? Zhang Qiang scratched his head, a little dazed.
Wang Yi glanced at him: "Let's do what he says first!" Maybe we'll figure it out in a moment. ”
I hesitated for two seconds and nodded, "That's right." Let's keep up! ”
With that, I was the first to walk in the direction of the hallway.
Seeing this, several other people also hurriedly followed.
We followed the old man all the way to the northwest.
Situ Cao walked beside me, she looked at her grandfather's back, but she didn't say a word, as if she had something on her mind.
It seems that she really has something else she hasn't told us besides this incident.
Perhaps, when the matter is over, find a chance to talk to her.
I thought to myself.
After walking for about three or four minutes, we walked around the corridor of the huge ancestral house, and just when we doubted whether we would go all the way to the earth, Situ Shanping finally stopped.
In front of us was a very quaint-looking room.
Perhaps because few people enter, it looks a lot older than the other rooms.
The red paint on the doors and wooden windows outside the room had long since peeled off and was mottled with dust and cobwebs, and the corners of the walls were covered with thick moss.
I don't know if it's my psychological effect, but I always feel that there is an invisible and strange aura lingering around this room.
Is it a delusion?
Just when I was puzzled, Situ Cao glanced at me: "This is the room I mentioned to you before that contains the Gu Medicine Classics. ”
"So this is it? No wonder I had a feeling of indescribability as soon as I approached......" Du Deming muttered thoughtfully.
I was stunned and turned my head to look at Du Deming's back.
Isn't it a delusion?
The light of his eyes is constantly beating, is it also ...... here?
Just when a few of us were thinking nonsense, Situ Shanping had already taken out a copper key that was hanging around his neck and placed close to his body.
After a few soft clicks, the door opened.
Immediately, there was a smell of Chinese medicinal herbs mixed with dust.
"No one has been here for a long time. Come on in! Situ Shanping said, and the first one walked in.
A few of us looked at each other and followed.
However, before he had taken a few steps, he suddenly stopped.
I looked at the old man who stopped in front of me with some surprise, only to find that he was staring down at the ground.
Ground?
Is there anything on the ground?
Everyone paused at the same time, and looked down along Situ Shanping's line of sight, but found that there were many scattered footprints on the ground.
After a closer look, it was found that the footprints were supposed to have been left by two people.
One big and one small.
It should be a man and a woman.
"This ...... Has anyone been here before? ”
My heart sank, could it be that the contents were stolen?
If other things are fine, if the Gu Medicine Book is stolen, it will be a big loss!
"It can't be a thief, right?" Du Deming also looked at Situ Shanping with some concern.
Just when everyone was worried, Zhao Qiqi suddenly spoke.
"You don't have to worry, I deduce that the owners of these two footprints should be a man and a woman. It is very likely that the male is Situ Heng, and as for the female, ......" she said, her eyes swept towards Situ Cao.
I was stunned for a moment, and suddenly understood.
looked at Situ Cao: "Could it be that the remaining footprints were left by you?" ”
Seeing that everyone was looking at her, Situ Cao smiled helplessly.
"That's right. I've been here a few times a while ago. You forgot that I once mentioned that Qiqi discussed with me and asked me not to use ...... as much as possible" Speaking of this, she suddenly stopped, glanced at the old man, and then skipped the word "True Demon" and continued: "Didn't Qiqi let me develop more types of Gu techniques? In a short period of time, I couldn't think of anything else. It just so happened that my grandfather had already passed on the Gu Medicine Classics to me. That's why I decided to come here to look for clues. As it turned out, some of the methods in the tomes did give me a lot of inspiration, and if nothing else, I would soon be able to master a new Gu technique. ”
Hearing this, I finally understood why Situ Cao, at the beginning, after just turning on the initial "Witchcraft Technique", was able to skip the "True Demon" menu option, in a short period of time, relying on his own ability, mastering so many Gu techniques, and constantly innovating new Gu Techniques, it turned out that the Situ family itself was hiding such a secret.
But in the blink of an eye, I became even more suspicious.
The afterglow swept towards Zhao Qiqi's position.
She still looks calm and breezy, as if there is nothing in this world that can make her take it to heart.
In other words, from the very beginning, did she know all about it?
Including the secrets of the Situ family?
Who the hell is she?
Why do you know everything?
I just feel that I can't understand Zhao Qiqi more and more.
"I see."
Wang Yi's voice came suddenly, and it suddenly pulled my consciousness back to reality.
Situ Shanping listened to the conversation between the few of us, with a puzzled look on his face.
"Xiao Cao, you, what are you doing developing so many kinds of Gu techniques? Although you are very talented in medical skills and Gu arts, there are still certain risks in Gu techniques after all, so you still have to be careful! Situ Shanping couldn't help but instruct.
Naturally, we couldn't tell Situ Shanping the real reason why Situ Cao was studying Gu Technique, and Situ Cao obviously understood this truth.
She looked at Situ Shanping, who was worried, and just said vaguely: "Ah, we can use it in some places, I will pay attention to it, grandpa, don't worry!" ”
Situ Shanping glanced back and forth at the six of us for a few times before finally nodding: "Okay, you have grown up, and there are some things that I don't need to say more." Let's go inside! I think that young man must have a lot of questions in his mind that he wanted to ask me. ”
As he spoke, he looked at me.
