Just as the third game of Sword Discussion was in full swing, other places in Little Saint Xian Manor were not peaceful either.

After Xunzi resigned to Fusu, he did not immediately return to his secluded place, but took a casual walk in this huge manor.

Today's Little Saint's Manor is extremely lively and deserted at the same time.

It is said to be lively because when you walk in the courtyard, you can see soldiers on duty everywhere, and there are also a large number of secret guards lurking in the dark. Although it is far from bustling, there are still a lot more people than usual.

It is said to be deserted because these imperial soldiers and the secretly guarded sentries of the Shadow Guard all remain silent and guard their posts like pieces of wood.

Perhaps these soldiers would chat when no one was around, but they would definitely not say a word in front of Xunzi.

Although there were not many people coming and going in the manor, you could still hear the voices of students talking loudly or laughing and playing, which made them a little angry. Now there is only dead silence.

Xunzi couldn't help but sigh, "It's a rare time to come out, and it's even deserted outside than my bamboo house."

While he was thinking in his mind, Xunzi's eyes suddenly turned and looked at a tall building beside him - that was the Confucian library where he helped Su go before.

Xunzi seemed to have discovered something, so he changed his direction and headed to the library.

At the same time, the fire in the library many years ago appeared in his mind unconsciously.

That fire was full of strangeness from beginning to end.

There are a large number of bamboo slips hidden in the library, and these bamboo slips are flammable, so the Confucianists made great efforts to prevent fire at the beginning of the construction.

The library itself is a single-family courtyard, far away from all other buildings. The internal and external walls are all made of bricks and stones, and the lighting and lighting in the building are all covered with fireproof coverings. Even if the candles fall down, there will be no fire.

Theoretically, it is impossible to accidentally catch fire.

But it started to burn, and it started very quickly, and by the time someone discovered it, the situation was already out of control.

When the cause of the fire was investigated afterwards, no special problem could be found, and the case could only be closed as an accidental fire.

Maybe it really was just an accident. After all, fire and water are ruthless, and no matter how hard you take precautions, it's difficult to be completely comprehensive.

But in comparison, Xunzi Fu Nian and others were still more willing to believe that it was not a simple accident.

It's a pity that the flames destroyed all the evidence, and the truth of this matter was impossible to find out later. Fu Nian and the others had suspicions, but they could not confirm it.

Of course, some things do not require ironclad proof, but it is enough to have an object of suspicion.

Xunzi's bad attitude towards Li Si was never just because of Han Fei's matter.

The screen switches to the library.

There are also soldiers patrolling and standing guard here.

However, the patrols of imperial soldiers are of little use to serious martial arts masters.

In comparison, the secret whistle of the Shadow Guards is obviously more effective, but there are few Shadow Guards!

Most of the manpower is concentrated around Fusu, and the defenses in other areas can naturally only be relaxed.

Of course, even if the defense is relatively lax, the ability of the Shadow Guard is still enough to stop the vast majority of young people with evil intentions.

But... when facing real professionals, it is inevitable that we will be unable to cope with it.

In a shadowy corner that the patrolling soldiers didn't notice, a plain-looking middle-aged man in dark clothes quietly came over.

After several dodges and moves, the man successfully evaded all the patrolling soldiers and secret sentries, and jumped into the library.

The specific purpose of this infiltrator is unclear, but he obviously wants to find a certain book, or the contents recorded in certain books. As soon as he came in, he began to read through the various volumes of books, and only glanced at them. It should be just

Confirm content.

I don’t know if he has a specific target location, but he actually wants to find a book in a library with over 10,000 books.

Although today due to Fusu's visit, the entire Little Saint's Village was under martial law and no disciples would come to the library, he could rummage around without worry.

But how long can Fusu stay here?

This entire building has a collection of books that would take you a month to browse through, but you wouldn’t be able to finish them all!

Moreover, even if no Confucian disciples come to study, it does not mean that no one will bother him.

In the silent library, there was a sudden squeaking sound, and someone pushed open the door!

The infiltrator who was flipping through the books was startled, and quickly hid behind the bookshelf, then jumped up to the upper floor, and peeked at the situation below from a hidden corner.

The door of the library opened, and Xunzi walked in with his hands behind his hands. After looking around, his expression was as usual, and he seemed to have found nothing.

The infiltrator breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he was not exposed, but he did not relax his vigilance at all. He took out a dagger and was ready to attack at any time.

Although the old man in front of him looked old and frail, and could be blown by the strong wind, he didn't notice any movement before he pushed the door open.

This was so unusual that the infiltrators did not dare to underestimate this old man.

Xunzi, who seemed to have discovered nothing, walked towards the bookshelf, looked at the messily turned letters on it, frowned and said:

"These students are so careless. They put the letters in a messy and unseemly manner!"

After saying that, Xunzi shook his hands and shook his sleeves, as if invisible waves were spreading around him. All the bamboo slips on the bookshelf were affected by the invisible force and trembled. Finally, each volume was adjusted to its position.

Xunzi's operation can only be performed by a person with extremely strong internal strength, and it will take at least several decades of skill to do it.

It's interesting to say that the Confucian master and the Taoist Tianzong master on the other side are competing for internal strength, and Xunzi here has quietly shown his skills in internal strength.

However, Xunzi’s side does not have that many discerning audiences.

Although the infiltrators hiding in the dark are experts in Qinggong and lurking, their own strength is just that.

Xunzi's operation only confirmed his guess that the old man in front of him was indeed unusual, but he did not feel that he was not Xunzi's opponent.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! However, the order he received was to act secretly and not to alert others.

To be on the safe side, the intruder stopped staying and jumped out of the nearby window.

Xunzi looked up at the slightly shaking window and chuckled.

The infiltrator never thought about the possibility that the old man's strength was far beyond his imagination, and he had been exposed long ago, but they didn't want to expose him directly and put everything on the surface.

………………

His eyes came to the waterside pavilion.

Fu Nian, who was slightly better for the time being, looked at Xiao Meng and said loudly:

"Senior Xiaomeng, Confucianism has always treated people with courtesy. In fact, Confucianism and Taoism can be said to have reached the same goal through different paths."

When Fu Nian said this, he was not showing off to his opponent, but a low-profile show of goodwill.

He wanted to win, but he didn't want to offend Xiao Meng, so he said that Confucianism and Taoism have different paths and lead to the same goal, and there is no difference between them.

However, Xiao Meng obviously did not agree with this statement and replied nonchalantly, "In that case, I will return the favor to you."

Opposite me, Gu Xun blinked and reminded the people around him softly:

"Look carefully, Xiaomeng, we are about to take action."

Gongsun Linglong couldn't understand these words.

Why do you want to take action again?

Didn’t this start a long time ago?

Other knowledgeable people were shocked, knowing that Gu Xun meant that Xiaomeng was only planning to take it seriously now.

And what she will do next will definitely be far more amazing than Fu Nian's move - otherwise Gu Xun will not specifically remind her.

But... is this woman really that powerful?

Not long after he finished speaking, ripples appeared around the word "Dao" on the water again, and at the same time, the entire font also trembled slightly.

Then under the eyes of everyone, Xiaomeng stood up with the word "dao" just like Fu Nian's word "li".

But this was not over yet. Amidst the sound of rushing water, this huge wall-like water character broke away from the water body and floated completely, hanging alone on the water surface.

In short, the word flies!

As expected, the Confucian disciples who were watching were dumbfounded by this operation. People such as Li Si, Zhao Gaoyan, Lu Zhang Liang and others couldn't help but look sideways.

This move is really difficult.

It is already extremely difficult to restrain the amorphous water from condensing into words using internal force, and it is even more incredible to control the water to form independently from the lake surface.

Water has no shape. Even if it is restrained by internal forces, the water body is still flowing. When the font does not leave the water, the dynamic exchange between the water character and the lake water does not require the operator to pay too much attention, but after leaving the water, this part must also

With the controller solely responsible, the difficulty can be said to skyrocket.

However, this is still not over, Xiaomeng's operations are still continuing.

The water channel characters floating in the air began to split into independent small water droplets one after another. The latter were also floating in the air, but each was independent.

Seeing this scene, Chu Nangong, who had always admired Xiaomeng's talent, finally showed a different emotion - he fell into a rare surprise, his eyes under his eyebrows widened as wide as possible, and he said in a voiceless voice:

"Is this... Xin Ruo Shui Shui!?"

Gongsun Linglong, who didn't know why and didn't know how serious he was, quickly put his head in and asked:

"Nangong, what does this mean?"

After the initial shock, Chu Nan Gong also recovered his demeanor, but his tone was still filled with wonder as he explained:

"Xinruo Zhishui is the same as Wanchuan Qiushui. They are both Taoist Tianzong's unique mental methods. However, they are completely opposite in how to move Qi."
