"Listen to Yuxuan. ”

Looking at the plaque above the courtyard, Gu Xiuyun frowned slightly.

If it was other courtyards, he might not really know about it, but listening to Yuxuan, it happened to be the residence of the four-bedroom and the second master, and the relationship with his cheap father Gu Qingyuan was not good.

Although the two are brothers, they have a deep grudge against each other, and even once had a big fight, the reason for which is no longer known, but since then, the two have never appeared in the same house.

"That's it, since the jade golden knife is inside, I'll take a walk!"

Gu Xiuyun knocked on the door.

Soon, a slave opened the wooden door, "Who are you?"

"In Xia Gu Xiuyun, I came to meet the second uncle. ”

"It turned out to be Yun Gongzi," a smile immediately appeared on the slave's face, "The second master is not in the courtyard, if the son has anything, you can tell me first." ”

"It's inconvenient to leak this matter, why don't you let me wait in the hospital?" Gu Xiuyun said.

The servant's expression was a little hesitant, if it was an ordinary clansman, he would have sent it away, but Gu Xiuyun had just succeeded in opening his pulse, and now he was in the limelight, and it was definitely not his offense.

After thinking for a moment, the servant finally opened the wooden door and invited Gu Xiuyun in.

Walking into the courtyard, Gu Xiuyun looked around, only to see that there were many weapons placed in the courtyard, and on the knife rack at the very end, the jade gold knife exuded a bright light.

"Sure enough, it's here. Gu Xiuyun was happy in his heart, but his face remained calm, "I heard that the second uncle likes martial arts, and in addition to practicing on weekdays, he often practices blades, and when I look at it today, it is true." ”

"Yun Gongzi, most of the ordinary blades in the courtyard are not worth seeing, Gongzi will go to the hall to rest for a while, and the villain will bring tea later. The servant said.

"No need, I'll walk around the courtyard. ”

As he spoke, Gu Xiuyun walked to a halberd, grabbed the halberd, and waved it.

The wind was whistling, and the halberd was in Gu Xiuyun's hands, like a swimming dragon, rushing left and right, with awe-inspiring killing intent.

"Good halberd, poured with mixed copper, stainless steel as the bone, and with the dark iron blade, if you hold this blade, even if you encounter a demon beast, you can also fight. ”

Gu Xiuyun sighed a few words, and then came to another weapon rack......

After going around and around like this, and finally walked in front of the jade golden knife, Gu Xiuyun stretched out his hand seemingly casually and landed on the hilt.

In an instant, the second stone bead in the depths of his soul trembled violently, and an invisible light flowed out of the golden sword, pouring into his sea of consciousness, and finally merged with the stone bead.

The cracks on the stone beads quickly disappeared, and his longevity also increased by two days out of thin air.

"It's actually one more day than the previous stone bead?" Gu Xiuyun thought in his heart.

He had long suspected that as the more stone beads were repaired, the more longevity would increase, otherwise each time a stone bead was repaired, it would only increase one day of longevity, so how did Peng Zu prolong his life for eight hundred years?

Now the change in his own longevity has also confirmed his guess.

But at this moment, an invisible blade suddenly appeared between heaven and earth, slashing directly into his body.

Poof!

The voice seemed to be nothing, but the blade was real, and it directly cut off his four-day life.

"How can this be?" Gu Xiuyun froze in place, his mood seemed to be poured down by a basin of cold water, cold to the bone.

"Thief God, you still refuse to let me go!"

Gu Xiuyun wailed in his heart.

The invisible blade was clearly transformed by the rules of heaven and earth, and this time, the thief not only cut off the two days of life added by the life chart, but also punished him for two additional days.

"Am I destined to live for two more years?"

Gu Xiuyun's mood was extremely heavy, what about the purple qi spiritual vein, what about the Fenglin Society, they were all dying, what else was there to cultivate?

"Not true. ”

He suddenly remembered the ink-colored jade pendant, that time, why didn't the invisible heavenly sword come?

"It must be something I did wrong, so it will cause the backlash of the rules of heaven and earth. Gu Xiuyun swept away the gloom in his heart, "Yes, it must be so, when the first stone bead was repaired, the Heavenly Sword did not come, which means that Heaven and Earth have recognized my actions." ”

"And this time, I broke the taboo, so the heavenly sword came. ”

"But what is the taboo, and how did I break it?"

Countless thoughts welled up in Gu Xiuyun's heart.

"Yun Gongzi, you've been waiting for a long time, let's take a sip of tea first!" the servant stood respectfully beside him with a cup of tea.

"No need, since the second uncle is not here, I will stay soon!"

Gu Xiuyun let out a long sigh, he was no longer in the mood to stay in the courtyard at this moment, and walked straight to the door.

A tree-lined path, Gu Xiuyun walked on the road with a solemn expression, his brows furrowed.

Occasionally, servants and maidservants walked by on both sides, but they were carefully avoided for fear of disturbing him.

"What taboo am I violating?"

Gu Xiuyun repeatedly recalled the scene when he got the ink-colored jade pendant.

"Can't you touch it with your hands, or do you have to let someone else bring it to me?"

"Or maybe it's the wrong time and place, and you need to repair the stone beads at the right time and in the right place?"

Thoughts flashed through his mind.

Suddenly, a cry not far away caught his attention.

"Don't cry, isn't it just twenty strokes, fortunately, the young lady is kind-hearted and stopped the aunt in charge in time, if you really hit a hundred times, your hands will have to be wasted!"

"My aunt's heart is too ruthless, isn't it just two pieces of dim sum, she actually has to hit a hundred strokes, and Gu's rules are too unkind. ”

"Whoever asked you to violate the rules of the Gu family, suffering from this hand, is already the aunt in charge of the matter!"

"Miss has a bad appetite, there are so many snacks left to eat, so I tasted two pieces, anyway, I don't want it, what's wrong with eating two bites?"

"Even if the young lady doesn't want it, you can't touch it, unless the young lady rewards you, how can you take it yourself?"

Listening to the conversation in the depths of the woods, Gu Xiuyun's heart flashed with inspiration.

"You can't eat it unless it's rewarded by Miss?"

"You can't take it unless God rewards you?"

"Do you mean...... Is it because I took something I shouldn't have taken?"

At this moment, his memories of the past kept emerging, and the thief took the initiative to intervene several times, all because he had violated the taboo, not only in this life, but also in the previous life.

But on a few occasions, the thief backed down.

The first time was when I asked about the truth in the world.

"Brother Sorry for my life, I don't know what fate is not fate, you can't understand it, I'll just read it to you!"

The girl's voice still echoed in his head.

That time, Gu Xiuyun didn't let the girl say the scriptures on the vellum, it was the girl who took the initiative to read them and told him the scriptures.

The thief tried to intervene, but eventually retreated.

Because that time, he didn't fight, he went to rob, it was given to him by the girl.

......

The second time is when the natal chart is opened.

Although the life astrolabe was taken out by Gu Yuncong, behind it, it was planned by the white-haired young man, and even the ice snake venom was planted by Qin Baishou's faction.

It can be said that the present life of the natal astrolabe is completely the work of a white-haired youth.

That time, the thief did not back down, and the power of cause and effect could not overwhelm him, so he sent a golden eagle until the white-haired young man died.

Heaven did not give him a life astrolabe, but he had to force it, violating the rules of heaven, and there was only one way to die.

......

The third time was when he was reincarnated into Gu Xiuyun's body.

The Heavenly Sword came directly into the world and chopped away his eighty years of life.

......

The fourth time, it was the maid who put down the ink-colored jade pendant and repaired the first stone bead.

The Invisible Heavenly Sword did not appear.

......

The fifth time, he took the initiative to touch the Emerald Gold Knife and violated the taboo again.

......

The scenes made Gu Xiuyun's thoughts clearer and clearer.

"The Gu family, there are rules of the Gu family, and there are rules of the sky, as the saying goes, there are no rules. ”

"The thief doesn't target me alone unless I break the rules. ”

"And the rule is that if heaven has not given me, I cannot take it. ”

At this moment, he thought of an old saying, "If God does not take it, it will be blamed."

On the contrary, if the heavens do not take it by themselves, it is to change the destiny of heaven and seek their own death.

It's one thing to understand, it's another thing to do it.

If he wants to repair the life astrolabe, he must seek the treasures needed for the stone beads, but the rules of heaven and earth do not allow him to take them himself, how is this possible?

"Thief God, you're giving me a big problem!"

Gu Xiuyun looked distressed.

What the third stone bead needed was a water spirit ancient jade, which he had deduced just now, and this jade was outside Youning City, about hundreds of miles apart.

If there was no restraint from the rules of heaven and earth, Gu Xiuyun could go and get it at any time.

But Tiangui refused to let him take it, did he really wait for God to be kind and take the initiative to give the ancient jade?

"No, there must be loopholes in the rules of heaven, otherwise how did Peng Zu prolong his life for eight hundred years?" Gu Xiuyun thought silently in his heart.
