Chapter 12 Secret room, scroll, secret compartment!

Yang Xuyan!
Such an obvious feature, there is no need to think about it again.

Although Shi Zhixuan is the leader of both Huajian Sect and Butian Pavilion.

But he doesn't have many successors.

There are only two real disciples.

Hou Xibai, who inherited the unique skills of the Huajian School, and Yang Xuyan, who inherited the skills of the Butian Pavilion.

To some extent, these two people are like the embodiment of Shi Zhixuan's two personalities.

Hou Xibai inherited the light side, while Yang Xuyan belongs to the group of dark sides.

Of course, this is off topic.

At this time, Gao Changsheng was not very interested in the situation of Shi Zhixuan and his two disciples.

He was still concerned about Yang Xuyan.

Another identity besides Shi Zhixuan's apprentice.

The orthodox royal family of the Sui Dynasty.

Son of former Crown Prince Yang Yong.

It’s just that Yang Yong and Yang Guang were fighting for the throne.

The battle ended with Yang Guang's great victory.

Of course, in this comprehensive world, Gao Changsheng doesn’t know much about the specific details.

But it involves the throne and the fight for succession.

There is no need to think too much about the cruelty and brutality involved.

Yang Yong's entire family was almost wiped out.

Only Yang Xuyan's unknown son survived.

Of course, he became a stray dog ​​and could only hide his identity and live in the world.

Even if you don't know the plot.

With a little thought, one can guess that Yang Xuyan's heart must be filled with hatred, towards Yang Guang, the court, and even everything.

Perhaps this is one of the reasons why Shi Zhixuan chose this person to be his disciple.

Gao Changsheng could almost confirm it at this time.

The reason why Yang Xuyan appeared in Gao’s house tonight must be because of his identity.

If the other party came simply as a gangster, then he would be the successor of Butian Pavilion.

Then it must be for assassination.

There is no way he could sneak into Gao Ying's bedroom like this, bypassing everyone.

Knowing this is also the case.

Gao Changsheng became even more curious.

It didn't surprise him that Gao Ying had a secret.

It is impossible for anyone who reaches his level to be completely free of secrets.

But now, Gao Jiong, who has been dead for many years, can actually attract Yang Xuyan, an orphan of Yang Yong.

The involvement here must be huge.

Yang Xuyan, Yang Yong.

Then I thought of Yu Juluo’s previous words that seemed to have profound meaning.

Plus some clues that I had previously associated with.

It all adds up.

Almost confirmed.

What is happening right now, or what has been mentioned before.

It must involve a huge secret.

"Uncle Gao, I'll go in and take a look. You wait outside for a while."

"Got it, Master. I'll just stay outside. Let me know if anything happens."

Gao Bo did not ask, nor did he show any curiosity.

Gao Changsheng nodded.

Although I vaguely guessed some of it.

But the real truth is still shrouded in mystery.

Gao Jiong, Yang Su, and possibly Yang Jian, Yang Yong and even Yang Guang.

So many people are involved together, what exactly did they do or what did they own.

What role did Gao Ying play in this?

Gao Changsheng didn't know all of this.

But Gao Changsheng noticed one thing.

Yang Xuyan was looking for something just now.

And something like this might be able to lift the veil of mystery for him.

Step into the room.

The layout of the room is very simple.

This was originally an ordinary bedroom.

Moreover, although Gao Jiong had passed away for many years, the Gao family had still kept the house.

But some books and other things had already been taken out.

So, at this moment, there were only a bed, a table and a few stools in the room.

In such an environment, it doesn't look like there is anything there.

Gao Changsheng was not disappointed.

Since it is a secret thing.

It is impossible to display it outside openly.

And Gao Changsheng didn't believe it. If Yang Xuyan didn't have any confirmed news, he would have rushed to Gao's house rashly.

Then it's obvious.

His eyes swept across the table and chairs.

Soon it fell on the bed.

He stepped forward and looked at it carefully.

Sure enough, I found a strange bulge on the inner side of the bed foot column.

Twist gently.

The original bed board instantly split apart to the two sides.

It really is a secret room.

Gao Changsheng shook his head slightly.

If Yang Xuyan hadn't come in today.

Perhaps they will never discover this place.

This is Gao Jiong’s bedroom, which was preserved in the Gao Mansion as a memorial.

Since Gao Jiong did not leave any words during his lifetime, it is impossible for anyone to come here to look for him for no reason.

The door to the secret room opened wide.

Gao Changsheng did not hesitate at all.

Just step right in.

To be honest, he was becoming more curious at this point.

Gao Jiong left a secret room, but did not tell anyone before he died, not even his son.

What exactly is involved here?

It's really hard not to fantasize.

Fly into the secret room.

Because there was no fire, it was dark inside.

But this naturally does not pose a problem for Gao Changsheng.

With his current skills, being able to see in the dark is a perfectly normal ability.

The secret room is not big.

There are no complicated scenes.

At a glance, it's only half the size of a bedroom.

At the very back, there is a table against the wall.

There is a copybook hanging behind the table.

“A good start may not necessarily lead to a good finish, and a good beginning may not necessarily lead to a good end.”

Gao Changsheng raised his eyebrows.

There was a glint in his eyes.

Return your gaze to the table.

There were several books on the table.

Just take a look.

There doesn't seem to be anything special to note.

Could it be that book?

Gao Changsheng frowned.

He stepped forward, raised his hand and began to flip through the book.

"Collected Notes on the Art of War - Gao Zhaoxuan!"

"A Summary of Wang Jinglue's Military Strategy - Gao Zhaoxuan!"

After just looking at the two names, Gao Changsheng's eyes flashed with surprise.

Zhaoxuan is the courtesy name of Gao Jiong, and Gao Zhaoxuan is Gao Jiong.

There are so many books, but there are actually only two.

One of them seems to be a book of military tactics by predecessors compiled by Gao Jiong.

The second volume is a summary of Gao Jiong's own life philosophy.

This is what surprised Gao Changsheng.

In fact, Gao Jiong did not leave any systematic summary of military strategy in Gao Mansion.

Although the stories told by Gao Bo and others have been supplemented by some information in the secret library of the study.

Gao Changsheng's military training was not affected at all.

Before, including Gao Changsheng and the people in Gao’s mansion, they all thought that Gao Jiong died too suddenly, so he did not have time to leave these things behind.

But the two volumes before us undoubtedly show that this is not the case.

A volume of ancient military tactics was probably the reason why Gao Jiong suddenly switched from Confucianism to military affairs.
A volume of my own works, a summary of my life's experience.

But why did Gao Jiong put these two volumes in a secret room and put them away?

Gao Changsheng's eyes were full of confusion.

Also, what is Yang Xuyan looking for?
Art of War? Obviously not possible.

Gao Changsheng narrowed his eyes.

He first glanced at the entire room, then suddenly waved his hand and took down the calligraphy on the wall.

As the copybook fell.

A secret compartment instantly appeared in front of Gao Changsheng.

"Ok?"

"how come……"
