Empress Abandoned in the Cold Palace: Queen Juan, she doesn't talk about martial arts

Chapter 54 Surprise
Gu Han frowned and looked at the woman wearing a mask in front of him in surprise, and subconsciously asked, "How do you know my identity?"

Su Lijin lowered her voice and analyzed him.

"Xiao Shengyong's human skin mask was made by you, and there are not many masks in the world that can be so similar to human skin."

"What's more, in the process of fighting with you just now, I found that your skills are not bad, you should be the son of a thousand faces."

"There are rumors in the Jianghu that Mr. Thousand Faces is good at making human skin masks, so few people have seen his real appearance. I didn't expect that I would meet you when I came out with the emperor this time."

After listening to Su Lijin's analysis, Gu Han didn't expect that he had accidentally exposed so much, and at the same time he looked at Su Lijin with admiration.

After all, there are not many people who know that Xiao Shengheng's mask was made by him, and the rumors in the world are all about the son of a thousand faces, as for his name, it is rare.

"But what you said just now was wrong, I am not the son of a thousand faces." Gu Han corrected.

"You are not the son of thousands of faces, then you are?" Su Lijin asked aloud, and she actually misidentified her.

She only knew that only Young Master Thousand Faces had the skill to make human skin.

Moreover, the human skin on Xiao Shengheng's face was no different from that of a real person, and the difference could not be seen with the naked eye.

Could it be that there are already people who have skills comparable to those of Young Master Thousand Faces?

Su Lijin was still puzzled, Gu Han explained, "I am his only heir, Gu Han."

Master Qian Mian has already taught Gu Han everything he has learned in his life, otherwise his skills would not be so good.

His master is well-known in the Jianghu world, but outsiders only know that his master has taken in an apprentice, but little is known about who the apprentice is.

That's why he was so surprised after Su Lijin said that the human skin on Xiao Shengheng's face was made by him.

Only then did Su Lijin nodded, "Gu Han, since you are the only successor of Young Master Thousand Faces, can you accept me as your apprentice?"

After all, not everyone has this kind of craft. If you can learn how to make a human skin mask, it will be much more convenient to do things in the future, let alone wearing a mask to hide your identity.

She looked at Gu Han with expectations in her eyes, but what Gu Han said poured cold water on her head.

"I only accept one apprentice." Gu Han said lightly.

Hearing this sentence, Su Lijin didn't feel any regrets in her heart. Since he had accepted an apprentice, she could also worship his apprentice as a teacher.

"Listen to you, you have already accepted your apprentice. Since we met, it is fate. Can you introduce your apprentice to me so that I can worship him as my teacher. Wouldn't this kill two birds with one stone?"

After Su Lijin finished speaking, he waited for his answer. He believed that his apprentice's craftsmanship would not be too bad.

And she just wants to learn the craft, no matter who she follows, as long as she can accept herself as an apprentice and teach her things.

After Gu Han heard what Su Lijin said, he lowered his head indistinctly, and became silent, revealing a trace of sadness from his expression.

Su Lijin looked at Gu Han who was silent, and guessed that there might be other secrets in it, and just about to ask, she heard Xiao Shengheng's voice ringing in her ears.

"His apprentice has passed away." Xiao Shengheng, who was standing aside, listened to the entire conversation between the two of them.

But he didn't expect that Su Lijin would be interested in this aspect.

After hearing this sentence, Su Lijin was very surprised. She really didn't expect that Gu Han's only disciple had passed away, and felt very sorry at the same time.

No wonder Gu Han was a little silent after she said these words just now, it turned out to be like this.

After reacting, she immediately apologized to him: "Gu Han, what I said just now offended you so much, please don't take it to heart."

She could understand Gu Han's mood at this moment. After all, he was his only disciple, and he cultivated it with all his efforts. To him, he must be like a family member.

If she had known this was the case, she shouldn't have talked about his apprentice just now, after all, it was a matter of exposing scars.

Gu Han smiled wryly and looked at Su Lijin.

"It's okay, my apprentice is Qiu Shui, a well-known intelligence dealer in the world."

He paused for a moment, then continued.

"However, he was assassinated five years ago. With the help of the emperor, I only know that the person who assassinated Qiushui was from the Wulin League, but I haven't found out who that person is."

For a long time, this incident was an unmentionable wound in Gu Han's heart, and he did not give up looking for the murderer, but that person seemed to hide himself very well.

Otherwise, it has been so long, and he still hasn't found the murderer, who is it.

Su Lijin hesitated in her heart. Although his apprentice Qiu Shui was no longer alive, she didn't want to give up. If Gu Han didn't want to accept another apprentice, then it would be a pity that this skill was cut off with him.

If Gu Han is not around in the future, then there is no one else in this Jianghu who will make such a real human skin.

She thought for a while before she spoke: "Gu Han, if I can avenge your apprentice Qiushui, can you accept me as an apprentice?"

After she finished speaking, she looked at Gu Han, a little uncertain about his thoughts, but she still hoped that Gu Han would agree.

"Okay, if you can help me find the murderer who killed Qiushui, I can make you Qiushui." Gu Han said.

The reason why he agreed was because he felt that Su Lijin had this ability. After all, during the fight between the two just now, he found that Su Lijin was better than himself.

As for Su Lijin's identity, he still didn't know what it was. Although Su Lijin had said that she belonged to Xiao Shengheng just now, for some reason, he always felt that this woman's identity was not that simple.

"Okay, that's a deal." Su Lijin didn't expect to come out this time, and there would be unexpected gains.

It is also a good thing to be Gu Han's apprentice.

"Since we've reached this point, you still haven't told me who you are?" Gu Han was still curious about Su Lijin's identity.

"My name is Shiqi. As for my identity, you will know when you accept me as your apprentice in the future."

Su Lijin would never reveal her identity at this time, and as she said just now, she is Xiao Shengheng's person, so he probably wouldn't ask any more questions.

Gu Han nodded, if he could find the murderer who killed Qiu Shui, then he, as a master, would definitely kill that person himself, and it would be regarded as revenge for Qiu Shui.
