Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 450 Empty
  When Gu Xun finished speaking, the figure of the Moon God floated in front of him and said with a smile:

"Master National Preceptor is indeed worthy of trust. The Moon Goddess expressed his gratitude on behalf of the Yin Yang Family."

"Ha!" Gu Xun smiled disdainfully and threw the box over casually, "Thank me? If I had stopped the Six-fingered Black Man as promised, you would have gotten the things by yourself right now, and you were not sure how to organize me. Right?"

Luna didn't reply, just pursed her lips and smiled softly. She focused all her attention on the copper box and checked it carefully to make sure it was not fake.

At this time, the Six-fingered Black Man interjected in a deep voice:
  "Mr. Gu, this thing is of great importance and must not fall into the hands of the Yin Yang family!"

Gu Xun turned to the Six-Fingered Black Man with a smile on his face, "This is a deal. They will pay for it, and I will do my part to get the box. As for the secrets involved...heh, it's not important."

"...Mr. Gu, our Mo family can give us twice as much money as the Yin Yang family. How about you take this thing back?"

If you can't beat them, you have no choice but to join. The Six-Fingered Black Man decisively chose Krypton to conquer the difficulties. Although the Mo family didn't have much wealth on their books, they could always raise a sum of money if they insisted on selling everything.

When other people heard this, their eyes turned to Gu Xun, and some of them were worried that he would go back on his word.

However, Gu Xun refused, shook his head and replied, "You have to be trustworthy when doing business. You can't eat both sides of a deal. Let's cooperate with the giant again next time." - Of course, if necessary, Gu will Grab it yourself, so you don't have to eat from both ends.

"Besides...it's just a box, why should you care so much?" At the end, Gu Xun added with a smile of unknown meaning.

Although Luna's attention was entirely focused on the copper box, she still heard this sentence clearly. A strange feeling passed through her heart, but it passed by in the blink of an eye, and she did not take it to heart.

The box can basically be confirmed to be genuine.

After saying that, Gu Xun ignored the Six-fingered Black Man who still wanted to say something, and reminded the Moon God:
  "Don't forget to pay as soon as possible."

Then, without waiting for the Moon God to reply, he took Yan Lingji and left, leaving behind a mess everywhere.

Seeing this, the Moon God also left here with the copper box as quickly as possible. The Chu State's manpower naturally evacuated accordingly. Although the Six-fingered Black Man and the old man guarding the copper box had the intention to take the things back from the Moon God, it was a pity that Injured by Gu Xun, he could only watch Yue Shen and others escape, unable to do anything.

Seeing that the matter was settled, the Six-fingered Black Man could only accept the reality. After his inner breath calmed down, he also left Zhao Wangcheng.

One of the copper boxes was obtained by the Yin Yang Family, which was absolutely bad news for him, but he would not take it back at all costs. After all, no matter how many boxes the Yin Yang Family obtained, the key... was never in their hands. inside.

Moreover, after feeling calmer at this time, Six Finger Black Man always felt that Gu Xun's words had some profound meaning.

The building was empty, and the excitement was gone in the blink of an eye, leaving only two old men who were seriously injured and still couldn't get up.

By the time the Imperial Guards from the Zhao Palace arrived, there was only one remaining job left to do, namely washing the floor.    ……………

On the way back, Yan Lingji had a slumped face, exuding the aura of being kept away from strangers.

"As for that, how come you are so virtuous?" Gu Xun couldn't help but look amused and asked with a smile.

"Hmph!" Yan Lingji gave him a stern look, "You are not the shopkeeper yet, but you have such a good reputation that they don't even dare to fight me. Fortunately, they have at least seen a battle, so it's not in vain..."

"Afraid of me? Hahaha..." Gu Xun knew what was going on when he heard this, and couldn't help but feel more happy, "There's nothing you can do about it. If you attack others, I have to teach them a lesson. They have scruples. It’s really normal, no one wants to be beaten for no reason.”

"Then you...just do it." Yan Lingji only uttered two words before swallowing the rest. The current situation is like this. Most people will take Gu Xun into consideration and dare not attack her, even if From now on, Gu Xun will no longer indiscriminately retaliate against everyone who has done something to her, and her reputation has been established.

"By the way, you gave things to the Yin Yang family like this?"

"An empty box has no other use than collection. Just give it to them." Gu Xun spread his hands and replied nonchalantly.

"Empty box!?" Yan Lingji shouted in surprise when she heard this, and then hurriedly asked, "The fight is not over, we have to see as much fun as possible," "How do you know, isn't this thing difficult to open? ?"

"Because it has been opened. Although it is in a closed state, it is definitely not 'locked'. It can be opened with a little brute force." Gu Xun raised his brows and explained, "After I got it before, I just I tried to open it with brute force, but I didn’t use much force and it opened all of a sudden, and there was nothing inside.”

"But... why would the Six-Fingered Black Man care so much about an empty box? Zhao Guo has arranged for two top experts to guard it?"

"Theoretically, they do this because they don't know that the box is empty." Gu Xun said this and shrugged, "As for why they don't know, that's another mystery."

"Who knows when this box was opened? It might be hundreds of years old."

Gu Xun's doubts were even greater than Yan Lingji's. In theory, to open this thing, he needed both a suitable bloodline and the assistance of the Phantom Sound Treasure Box. Let's ignore the former. The latter was clearly staying in the forbidden area of ​​the Mo family, and might have been hidden. How could the box be opened after hundreds of years? Could it be that it really was opened hundreds of years ago?
  This is unreasonable!
  I don’t know how many owners the box has passed through, and all the previous owners must be ordinary people, so it’s impossible for them all to have failed to discover the problem.

If it was opened in recent years, who opened it? Pingyuan Lord Zhao Sheng? Where did the things go?
  It's a pity. I originally wanted to take this opportunity to try and see if I could figure out what was in this box...

"Haha!" Yan Lingji didn't worry too much about who took the things in the box. She didn't care anyway. She just wanted to watch the excitement and have fun. "Shopkeeper, you said the Yin Yang family would find out that this box has been opened. Yet?"

"Well..." Gu Xun pondered for a moment, "Probably. They should check the things they get from an outsider like me, and the Yin and Yang family will definitely make some attempts to open the box. Anyway, with the box's The state can be opened with a little effort."

"Haha, I really want to see what these people from the Yin Yang family would look like when they found out that the box was empty and were overjoyed for nothing." Yan Lingji heard this, covered her mouth and gloated.

She doesn't like the people in the Yin Yang family. Each one is more arrogant than the other, and they also like to pretend to be mysterious...and they are all women, women with good looks!
