Chapter 385 Hesitation, Rejection
"What did you say?"
A big hand covered Kurumi's head. The girl with twin ponytails looked up and saw a certain incense burner with a calm face whose mood could not be determined, but whose hand strength was gradually increasing, staring at her.
"Nothing, I was just telling His Majesty how handsome Sanqiu is."
Walnut gave a thumbs up with a strong desire to survive.
"Do I need you to emphasize that I'm handsome?"
Gu Sanqiu loosened his hand and then sat down next to Hu Tao, who gritted his teeth but didn't say anything else.
The Wangsheng Hall observes life and death and possesses exclusive secret techniques for the cultivation of the eyes. Hu Tao could naturally see the outrageous life fluctuations in Gu Sanqiu's body.
She couldn't beat the opponent. When they were playing around, she could pick up the Staff of Homa and hit Gu Sanqiu. It was just that this guy was just playing around, or he simply thought there was no harm and was too lazy to dodge.
"You've already got it done?"
Kurumi's eyes showed contempt: "It's a minus point for a boy to treat work with a casual attitude."
"If it takes that long for me to carve the data, I won't be interested in using this thing anymore."
Gu Sanqiu ignored Hu Tao's sarcasm. He believed that Shen Qingzhisuke was indeed one of the Kage actors. His personal ability, which could be described as a genius, had almost clearly stated the road ahead and the way forward.
Gu Sanqiu simply copied the reference answers onto the blank test paper. Moreover, the scroll also contained historical data selflessly contributed by Yushin Harunosuke. He really got a great bargain this time.
Well, he was a little bothered by why the letter had to be sent hundreds of years later. He always felt that it was another huge sinkhole.
"Boy, now that you have completed your work, why don't you leave?"
Venerable Anxi glanced at Gu Sanqiu, then waved his hand gently.
"Don't look at me anymore. I'm not going out anyway. To be honest, I don't know what the consequences will be for us if we leave the Valley of Rest."
"Anyway, judging from my own perception, it definitely can't be a good thing."
Gu Sanqiu smiled and said, "How could that be? I just thought that Senior was so handsome that I couldn't help but look at him a few more times. I don't have any other intentions, really."
"Hey, my face. It's strange that you can see my face."
Venerable Anxi looked at the tribesmen sitting quietly on the ground beside him and couldn't help but sigh.
"Don't laugh, kid. Your family laughed like that when they met me. As a result, I was taken away to be his translator for twenty years."
The Reverend Anxi shook his head: "Now seeing your smile still makes my scalp tingle."
"translate?"
Gu Sanqiu's expression changed. "Well, Venerable, what kind of translation work did my ancestors ask you to do in the past?"
"I don't know. I don't want to tell you. I won't tell you."
Venerable Anxi rejected Gu Sanqiu's request in an "I knew it" tone.
"Don't ask me, and don't think about giving me something to show you. I just want to quietly accompany my people to finish the rest of the journey."
"I have already paid you what you deserve. The twenty years of translation work almost inspired me to burn down your library."
"Don't let me see you taking anything related to words out of your arms, or I'll really get angry."
"Well, it seems there is no hope."
Gu Sanqiu sighed: "Venerable, there are signs that the formation in front of the valley has been touched again. It seems that someone thinks there is something good in it. Do you need me to strengthen it for you?"
The Reverend An Xi was silent.
"You know, Sanqiu boy, if you tell me this information now, it's like you are threatening me. If I don't agree to you, many strange guys will come and disturb my life."
"But I believe you are not such a person, or your family tradition should not produce a guy who is so good at using such conspiracies and tricks."
The Reverend Anxi sighed and said, "Bring it to me if you want to show me anything."
Gu Sanqiu touched his pocket and then suddenly smiled.
"Nothing, Your Excellency, just instruct them to put away the things we brought this time. The things we brought this time should be enough for you to use for three to five years."
"That's it. We're leaving now."
Gu Sanqiu gently tapped Hu Tao's shoulder, then stood up and walked out of the valley.
"I will help you deal with the formation outside. It won't take long for me to solve it."
The Reverend Anxi stood up and said, "Boy, have you really decided? If I regret it later, you won't have this chance anymore."
"You can regret it if you want. To be honest, I don't really care. You must pay a reasonable price to go to the Valley of Rest. This is the instruction left by our ancestors ."
Gu Sanqiu smiled and said, "Perhaps next time I come here, I can force you to come out of the mountain and see the scenery outside."
Venerable Anxi was stunned for a moment, then he couldn't help laughing.
"Guhehehe , ahem, then I am looking forward to that day, if such a moment can really come."
Gu Sanqiu waved his hand without looking back, and walked out of the Rest Valley with Hu Tao.
"Sanqiu, you look like you have a lot of questions to ask. The Venerable has already let you know, so why don't you ask?"
Walnut tilted her head and looked at someone who was busy concealing and strengthening the formation.
"Tsundere?"
Gu Sanqiu's hand shook, and an elemental crystal was placed in the wrong place, causing problems in the connection of the formation in most of the area.
"I was wrong."
Kurumi immediately covered his mouth with his hands, then began to look down at the pebble obediently, as if trying to find the law of the rock ridge on a small stone.
Gu Sanqiu retracted his death gaze and continued to set up the formation.
He did want the Venerable Anxi to help him see something.
No matter how Liyue-like his name is, he is still a Hilichurl shaman in essence.
He should be able to understand what the Water Abyss Mage gave him.
Although that thing has been taken back by the Abyss Mage, he has used his mental power to copy down some details, so there is absolutely no problem in replicating it 100%.
Although he thought that thing might be just an abstraction among abstracts, there must be some obvious patterns among the Hilichurls, even text in rows and columns, not to mention the Hilichurls shamans who are experts in this field.
But in the end he hesitated.
He said he had no idea why the Valley of Rest existed, and that one had to pay a "reasonable price" every time one entered the valley.
This kind of riddle-man-style operation is simply telling you that there is something fishy about this place. If you don't want to run into any problems, it's best not to mess around.
As for the thing that the Abyss Mage showed him, logically speaking, it should be considered as a mess no matter from which angle you analyze it.
What if that thing is taken out and we say goodbye to Rest Valley forever?
If these were the hillbillies outside who would fight to the death when they met, Gu Sanqiu would definitely beat them without saying a word, but this group in the Valley of Rest was not like that.
After thinking it over again and again, he decided not to use that thing to harm others.
A big change is imminent, and there are many people in the Abyss Cult who want to stir up chaos. He really doesn't believe that he can't successfully capture one of them alive!
