Chapter 573: Weapons
There was no estrangement between Mo Xuanyin and Gu Xiqian because of the matter in Fengyue Pavilion, but in the hearts of the two people, this person couldn't just be inappropriate.
Not only because of his appearance, but also because of the mystery of his identity. Why did he know Gu Xiqian's past so well, and why did he persuade Gu Xiqian not to meddle in the war between Yunnan and Lanling.
What role does he play in between? Just on the Pavilion Master of the Wind Moon Pavilion, there were a bunch of questions waiting for them to explore.
Gu Xiqian and Mo Xuanyin respectively sent people to investigate the identity of the Pavilion Master of the Wind Moon Pavilion, but unfortunately they didn't know anything except that the other party's name was Luoquan and the Pavilion Master of the Wind Moon Pavilion.
I thought that with the ability and efficiency of their subordinates, the result would come out soon, but the outcome was completely opposite.
"We only know that the other party's name is Luoquan now, and we don't know anything else, maybe the name is fake. If you continue to check it like this, the result will only be the same as now, since this road doesn't work, let's think of other ways. β
Knowing that there is no point in investigating like this, Gu Xiqian feels that she can't go on like this. Now they are in the light and the other is in the dark. Before figuring out the identity of Luoquan, it is not clear whether the other party is friend or foe.
Luoquan's persuasion made Gu Xiqian faintly feel that the other party didn't seem to be here to deal with them. It's a pity that in the face of this life-threatening matter, my feelings seem too pale and powerless. Only by confirming the identity and purpose of Luoquan can Gu Yiqian be completely relieved.
"You already have an idea in mind?"
After getting the news brought back by his subordinates, Mo Xuanyin's brows never relaxed. Compared with Gu Xiqian, he was more eager to know the identity of the other party. In this world, it is rare for a person to look so similar to another person, regardless of kinship.
He wouldn't be naΓ―ve enough to think that he had a brother outside. Then the identity of the other party is really suspicious, and the motive is even more suspicious.
Just when he was at a loss, Gu Xiqian's words made him feel that he saw hope again. He has always trusted Gu Xiqian, and since Gu Xiqian said so, most of them already have an idea in their hearts. With his understanding of Gu Xiqian, it was absolutely impossible for Gu Xiqian to say such a thing for no reason.
"I can't talk about the solution, but I have some ideas in my heart. From the very beginning, it was the other party who found us. Even if we plan for the worst, it will be unfavorable to us, and his current goal will naturally not be achieved. If we act too defensive, we will only increase his vigilance. Before he achieves his goal, he will definitely come again, so let's just brake quietly and see what his purpose is? β
Gu Xiqian really didn't have any substantive solutions, after all, they were on the passive side now. The more this happens, the less they can afford to mess with themselves.
"For the time being, we can only look like this, send a few people to keep an eye on Fengyue Pavilion closely, and once he appears, we will make another plan. But next time if he asks you again, you must tell me that you can't go to the appointment alone, I can't let you take any risks......"
After Gu Xiqian finished speaking, Mo Xuanyin fell silent again. For people like them, this way of dealing with it is a little unwilling for him. In the end, he was defeated by reality and decided to compromise.
Thinking of the way Luoquan found them for the first time, Mo Xuanyin couldn't help but get nervous. In case he was still so surprised once, and asked Gu Xiqian to go to the appointment alone, what kind of actions Mo Xuanyin would have dared not imagine at all.
"Don't worry, I didn't discuss it with you this time. And if it weren't for the boredom, I wouldn't have gone at all. β
Gu Xiqian looked at Mo Xuanyin with a nervous expression, and she was also a little moved in her heart. In the previous life, I really paid someone wrong, and in this life, I value the moment when I am valued by others. Mo Xuanyin was affectionate, and his eyes revealed his worries about himself, and Gu Xiqian felt that this was enough.
She was a little glad that she had discussed it with Mo Xuanyin this time, otherwise she would definitely have to scold. Since getting along with Mo Xuanyin, he has always been calm and composed, and the rare few times he lost control were also because of himself. Mo Xuanyin usually has enough things, and Gu Xiqian doesn't want to increase his burden.
"With your assurance, I'm much more at ease. No matter what his identity or purpose, as long as you are by my side, I have nothing to fear. β
After Fu Xiqian's voice fell, Mo Xuanyin's nervous affection turned into relief. He hugged Gu Xiqian into his arms and drew warmth from each other.
There is no need to pay too much attention to the matter of Luoquan for the time being, and Mo Xuanyin does not dare to relax in the slightest, Shen Mengxian is ambitious and has been trying to annex the world. In order to prevent his ambition from being realized, Mo Xuanyin must always be ready to deal with it.
Heaven did not fulfill people's wishes, and sure enough, they were afraid of something, and within a few days, new news came from the front. They got the news that Shen Mengxian was now manufacturing weapons in large quantities, and they had never seen them before. The damage is amazing, and it is not something that flesh and blood can stop at all.
From the moment he got the news, Mo Xuanyin locked himself in the imperial study and never came out. I didn't eat the lunch, and the food that was brought in was brought out as it was. Seeing that it was time for dinner, Mo Xuanyin still didn't move.
Gu Xiqian was worried in her heart, although she felt that Mo Xuanyin must have encountered something, she felt uncomfortable, and it was best for her to stay quietly alone.
But she couldn't watch Mo Xuanyin not even eat, she was so busy with official business every day, if she didn't even eat, her body would be unable to bear it sooner or later.
Gu Xiqian asked people to prepare the meal, and walked to Mo Xuanyin's study with the food. The scene inside was exactly the same as she thought, Mo Xuanyin really sat on the chair with a dejected face, and at first glance, she had encountered something bad.
"Why are you here, these people are so ignorant that they actually bother you."
Gu Xiqian knocked on the door without waiting for the people inside to respond, and directly pushed the door and walked in.
Mo Xuanyin's imperial study is not accessible to ordinary people at all. After Gu Xiqian came, she was able to come in and out at will, but when Mo Xuanyin was inside, Gu Xiqian would still come in after getting permission.
This time the situation was special, Gu Xiqian was anxious, and she didn't take this into account at all.
Mo Xuanyin thought that it was his subordinates, so he didn't understand the rules, and was about to have a seizure, when he looked up and saw that the person who was walking towards him was Gu Xiqian. The words of reprimand came to his lips and were swallowed again.
Seeing Gu Xiqian holding the food in her hand, she quickly got up and took it and put it on the table, helping Gu Xiqian to sit on the chair.
"I'm here on my own to do anything with them. Do you think I'm going to be kept in the dark if I don't let them tell me? You yourself said that we have to face things together, what are you doing now? β
Mo Xuanyin's words made Gu Xiqian dissatisfied, and said that there were things to face together, and when he really encountered something, he just wanted to resist everything alone!
"Don't be angry, I just haven't figured out how to tell you yet......"
Gu Xiqian knew that Mo Xuanyin couldn't see himself angry, as long as he was angry, he would definitely be at a loss. From the moment he entered the door, he didn't give Mo Xuanyin a good face, and pretended to be angry.
Mo Xuanyin really didn't disappoint Gu Xiqian, after she finished speaking, Mo Xuanyin immediately became nervous, and then explained the whole thing.
"Originally, Shen Mengxian's soldiers and horses had reached the point of being irresistible, but now that we have weapons that cannot be cracked, I am afraid that no matter how much we do, we will be unable to recover. We have been preparing for such a long time, and in front of Shen Mengxian, we seem vulnerable. β
After finishing speaking, Mo Xuanyin became decadent again. This kind of Mo Xuanyin made Gu Xiqian feel distressed, all along, Mo Xuanyin has always been high-spirited, and he has always been able to win, how could he ever have this look.
"You don't want to be like this, the battle hasn't officially started yet, and we still have a chance. Shen Mengxian was suddenly able to produce weapons on such a large scale, and he must have received help from others. We can find a breakthrough in other people, and there will definitely be a turnaround! β
Mo Xuanyin didn't notice the distress revealed in Gu Xiqian's eyes, otherwise there would probably be a trace of comfort in her heart. Mo Xuanyin was immersed in frustration, which was undoubtedly a heavy blow to him.
Gu Xiqian was different, what she encountered this time was completely small compared to everything she had experienced in her previous life. So that she can still face it calmly now, and it is precisely because of this state of mind that she can easily grasp the point.
Since the news has just come over, it means that this is Shen Mengxian's recent move. If Shen Mengxian had been able to make this kind of weapon earlier, I am afraid that he would have ruled the world by now.
If they could know who helped Shen Mengxian and get the method of cracking this weapon from this person, they would be sure of winning.
"Yes, until the last minute, there is hope. I will immediately send someone to investigate who Shen Mengxian has been in contact with most recently, and I must find a way to crack it as soon as possible. β
Gu Xiqian's words undoubtedly reminded Mo Xuanyin that before the last moment, they still had hope of turning the tables. hasn't collided head-on with Shen Mengxian yet, but he messed up first, which really shouldn't be.
"By the way, did the person who delivered the information pass on what the weapon looked like, I want to see ......"
Mo Xuanyin cheered up, and Gu Xiqian also had confidence. Since this weapon was so powerful, she couldn't help but want to see what it looked like and posed such a big threat to them.
Shen Mengxian was able to manufacture this weapon on a large scale with such confidence, and naturally recognized its power. If it is in this short period of time, it is unlikely that weapons will be studied for this war.
