Chapter 133: The poisonous snake and scorpion heart
Youzhou has a lot of energy to drink.
It is easier to spin when blown by the wind.
None of these disciples from the Youzhou family have reached the sixth level, and their ability to dissolve true qi is limited.
But there is still a basic sense of danger.
At the entrance of the inn, Duan Hongxing, who was standing there, was eyeing them.
Even Wei Yu, who was most drunk, instantly sensed the danger, and had a cold sweat all over, and he woke up most of the wine.
Who is this woman?
Absolutely a powerful practitioner.
As she breathed, the air around her seemed to be wandering with substantial swords and sabers.
And she seemed to be full of fighting spirit at this time.
And it seems to be aimed at their group.
Only Gu Liubai knew very well what was going on.
Yin Shiniang is very efficient in doing things!
This piece of Hongxing was very exciting at first glance.
Duan Hongxing's sharp eyes were patrolling the bodies of these children from Youzhou families, as if he was about to go into battle to kill the enemy and wanted to pick a good sword quickly.
She found Duan Ai and Duan Zhuowei in the crowd, hesitated for a moment, then looked at Duan Ai and Duan Zhuowei and said, "My surname is Duan."
Duan Ai and Duan Zhuo were slightly stunned, and then the two instantly recalled the content of the letter at home and understood who this person was.
Duan Hongxing continued, "Although I have some connection with you, your talent for practicing... is really not good."
Duan Ai and Duan Zhuowei frowned slightly. What's wrong with this distant relative? They rushed to the door of the inn to block it. Is it just to ridicule themselves?
Duan Hongxing's eyes quickly fell on Wei Yu, "Are you cultivating a sword?"
Wei Yu stuttered in an instant, "I...I shoot arrows."
Duan Hongxing looked at Song Qiu, and Song Qiu was a little nauseous at this time, and turned around and vomited with a wow sound.
Duan Hongxing was speechless.
After she looked around, her eyes still fell on Hua Linyi.
There is no way, at least the girl from the Hua family looks slightly higher in her true energy cultivation.
"You are really no match for me."
"I'm afraid that if I use my full strength to shoot you, you will die."
"So, don't think I'm bragging. You choose one of the Youzhou children who follow Pei Yunqi and Gu Ningxi as a student, and I choose one too. If your student can beat my student, I will compete with you again. If your student can't beat my student, then there is no need to compete again."
Yin Shiniang's voice kept ringing in her ears.
"I don't believe it!"
Duan Hongxing gritted her teeth when she looked at Hua Linyi, thinking that even if the swordsmanship is slightly inferior to you, I can't do it at that time to crush her true qi cultivation and improve her true qi cultivation as soon as possible!
She reached out to Hua Linyi, "It's you."
The expression on her face was a little scary at this time, as if she was going to chop someone up. Hua Linyi was frightened and shrank behind Rong Xiu.
Duan Hongxing pointed at Rong Xiu with this finger.
Rong Xiu was stunned. With Brother Ben Lang present, she was not afraid at all. Instead, she raised her eyebrows and said, "What are you doing?"
Duan Hongxing was also stunned.
At this moment, a woman walked over there with a plain face, which was Yin Shiniang.
"You can choose Rong Xiu."
Yin Shiniang casually pointed at Duan Ai, "Then I will choose the one you don't like."
Duan Hongxing originally wanted to repent, saying that it was the one behind Rong Xiu, but she was arrogant, and at this time Yin Shiniang actually chose Duan Ai, so her competitive spirit could not be suppressed, "Okay, I will choose Rong Xiu!"
Gu Liubai and Yin Shiniang agreed on this time before, and Pei Yunqiu returned to the room to dress up, but she didn't understand why, but as soon as Yin Shiniang appeared, the words of the two of them fell into her ears, she instantly realized what was going on.
She immediately threw a meaningful look at Gu Liubai, "It's still your dog."
"From today on, you can practice swords with me." Duan Hongxing took a deep breath, looked at Rong Xiu, and said word by word.
"Are you?" Rong Xiu was a little confused. She didn't know who the other party was at this time.
Duan Hongxing gritted his teeth and said, "I am Duan Hongxing in Lanling Jianfang."
Seeing that Rong Xiu seemed to be a little ineffective, she struggled for a moment and took out a note and handed it over, "You can first understand all the basic sword techniques in this note. Three days later, I will check it. This is the secret sword of Lanling Sword Square. If there is an external story, it will definitely be investigated!"
“…!”
When Duan Hongxing turned around and left, Rong Xiu didn't even come to her senses.
The shadow of the tree, the name of a person, the Duan Hongxing of Lanling Jianfang, and no practitioner in Youzhou does not know about it.
Rong Xiu couldn't understand why such a sword leader from Lanling Sword Square would choose himself as a student and give him the secret sword as soon as he came up.
If there is any regret medicine in the world, Hua Linyi, a fifth-grade monk, must have eaten it until he vomits.
She studied in Chang'an, and of course she knew more about Duan Hongxing's weight than these people.
Just now Duan Hongxing was originally choosing her, but she went to hide behind Rong Xiu.
Hua Linyi regretted that she wanted to chop off one of her legs.
However, Gu Liubai thought Hua Linyi was doing this beautifully.
The more methods of practicing, the better. Hua Linyi’s current sect is not weak, but Rong Xiu has no backing and lacks the training of a powerful swordsman.
"You two follow me to the backyard to talk."
Yin Shiniang glanced at Rong Xiu and Duan Ai, and turned around and walked towards the backyard very simply.
Rong Xiu and Duan Ai immediately followed.
Even if Hua Linyi was unwilling to give up, she understood that Yin Shiniang was going to talk to the two of them alone at this time, so she could only go back to the room while pinching her two escape legs.
A group of children from Youzhou families who were drunk and dispersed.
Pei Yunqiu followed Gu Liubai to the backyard.
"Tian Niang, you are doing beautiful things!"
Gu Liubai praised first, and then said softly: "You just chose a woman, and I will not be able to play the sword at that time."
"I don't think the method you told me before is good." Yin Shiniang said calmly: "I have thought of some other methods again."
Gu Liubai's eyes lit up, "Speak and listen."
Yin Shiniang hadn't spoken yet, but she heard three hahaha.
Just by these three loud laughs, Gu Liubai knew that Du Haha was coming.
Gu Liubai looked at Du Haha and thought that he was good at everything, but he was a little bit demonic.
Yin Shiniang said seriously: "I really don't know how to teach people."
Gu Liubai shook his head and said, "I don't agree with this. You taught me very well. I have learned the fourth sword of the Void Swords you taught me, and I will soon learn the fifth sword."
Yin Shiniang took a deep breath, and then spoke for a while, saying, "Du Haha should teach you better than me."
Seeing Gu Liubai smiling and silent, Yin Shiniang turned her face and said, "I'm too lazy to teach, and I'm not good at teaching tricks."
"Then how are you going to ask Brother Du to teach?" Gu Liubai saw that Yin Shiniang was obviously anxious and even told the truth, so he immediately asked seriously.
"Rong Xiu, please show Duan Hongxing the note that Duan Haha." Yin Shiniang turned to look at Rong Xiu.
Rong Xiu looked at Gu Liubai with a little hesitation, thinking that this is not the secret sword of Lanling Sword Square. Will there be any problem if you show it to others?
"It's okay, show it to him." Gu Liubai nodded at her.
Rong Xiu suddenly lost his worries, took the notes out of his sleeve and handed them to Du Haha.
"Du Haha will teach Rong Xiu to comprehend the sword moves first." Yin Shiniang glanced at Duan Ai and said, "Then Du Haha will teach Duan Ai the way to break those sword moves."
Dog energy can be contagious! Great Sword Master is also a dog! Pei Yunqi immediately understood what was going on.
After Yin Shiniang did this, Duan Hongxing would probably be surprised to find that she accidentally picked up a piece of uncensored jade. Rong Xiu was surprisingly quick to practice her sword moves.
But Duan Ai is amazing.
No matter what sword move she taught Rong Xiu, Duan Ai was still easily broken!
This is not a disciple's problem, of course it is a master's problem.
Then we must pass on a more powerful mental technique and a more powerful sword move.
I just don’t know when Duan Hongxing will wake up.
Pei Yunqi couldn't help but feel sympathy for Duan Hongxing.
The authorities were obsessed with it, and she looked at Duan Hongxing, who didn't seem very smart either.
The fifth prince is very smart and will not expose Yin Shiniang's trick on purpose.
Exposing it can easily affect unity on a boat.
"Sister Rong Xiu, this matter must not be circulated, even Linyi and the others must hide it." Duan Ai was so smart that he immediately knew the interests.
Du Haha opened the notes and looked at them, and immediately became solemn, "It's true that there can't be any leaks. This is no joke."
This note was written by Duan Hongxing himself. It not only records some secret sword techniques in Lanxi Sword House, but also has experience and shortcuts for each sword move, which are extremely detailed.
Rong Xiu turned to look at Gu Liubai.
Gu Liubai said very seriously: "The content of today's conversation cannot be spread out in half a word."
Rong Xiu suddenly felt solemn, "There will be no rumor when Rong Xiu dies."
...
The beautiful sunshine shines on the palace in Chang'an.
A lady with a large golden stroll on her head, wearing a luxurious brocade dress with cloud and crane patterns, and hanging various gemstone ornaments, walked out of the palace with her head held high and walked far away before getting on the carriage that she followed.
Deep in the palace, the palace where the third prince is located is covered with mottled tree shadows. There are two big trees that more than ten people can gather in the courtyard. There are several guards standing on both sides of a stone path in the middle. The quiet atmosphere is full of solemnity.
Unlike the other princes' palaces, the furnishings of the third prince are extremely simple. In the huge courtyard, except for these two big trees, there are only a few weapons racks, with various weapons placed on them. Under the sunlight, it emits a cold luster.
The third prince has always liked neatness and quietness, so the courtyard has always been very quiet. In addition, the fourth prince was imprisoned today, and the Jinwu Guard has been ordered to start searching the fourth prince's palace, so the atmosphere here is naturally becoming more and more depressing.
However, the third prince, who had just sent off Mrs. Pei, looked calm and there was no difference between him and usual.
A middle-aged monk in green clothes who walked into the study with him was named Li Tang, a child of the Li family in Jitian. He was nominally the teacher who tutored him in practice, but in essence he was one of the aides of the third prince.
He knew that the third prince had no idea about the visiting wife before, so he entered the study and sat down after the third prince's lower head, and explained: "Duke Pei's first wife died early, and Mrs. Jin was actually the second wife. However, she tried all kinds of methods in the Pei family over the years and made people dare not mention the big wife, so gradually people forget the fact that she was the second wife."
The third prince smiled slightly and said, "Although Duke Pei gives people the feeling that he is from a martial artist, he is very rude and stupid, he is actually a versatile and talented man, and he is very powerful. However, this lady of the imperial decree is really stupid."
"She is not pretending to be stupid." Li Tang thought of the wife's posture, and he showed a disgusting expression on his face. He did not hide it in front of the third prince and sneered: "It's not only stupid, but also very silly. On what day today, I accidentally got the chance to summon a queen to enter the palace, and I even took the opportunity to give you some gifts. Not only did I exceed the rules, but I also wanted to pile all the gold, silver and jewelry from the Pei Mansion on my body, and I was not afraid of causing trouble for Duke Pei."
"The stupider she is, the more useful she is."
The third prince is tall and has a sense of power when sitting. His facial features look so beautiful, but they are clear and angular, with an extremely masculine atmosphere.
He smiled, "She is very clear about her intention to come to me today to stir up the flames. She obviously thinks Pei Yunqi will take over her daughter's things, so that her wallet will be much less copper."
When Li Tang heard the third prince say this, he nodded in approval.
He knew that the third prince had thought it thoroughly, so he didn't need to say more.
Although Pei Yunhua, the daughter of the Pei family, is famously dignified and beautiful, and very talented, the third prince's decision to marry this woman was a bit hasty. According to his understanding of the third prince, there should be only one possibility after thinking about it.
Xie Wan is useless.
But the emperor suffered a huge loss of silence on the green eyes, and he couldn't swallow the anger anyway.
The third prince chose Pei Yunhua to follow the trend. He and Pei Yunhua were on the same boat. The emperor wanted to support his forces to suppress and deal with Green Eyes, and then he would get many benefits from it.
Moreover, using the power of the Pei family to deal with Green Eyes is what the emperor is most happy to see.
Pei Yunhua and Pei Yunqi were incompatible. As Pei Yunhua's biological mother, this Mrs. Jin could not wait to stand up and teach Pei Yunqi a good lesson.
Duke Pei naturally did not want to be an enemy of Green Eyes, but this Mrs. Jin already wanted to remove Green Eyes and get it right away.
The disgusting aspects of short-sightedness, vain, reckless behavior, and the third prince at this time were all advantages in the eyes of the third prince.
Jin Yanhua smiled proudly in the carriage.
The third prince had a very good attitude towards her and personally sent her to the palace gate.
Those ladies who often gather with her on weekdays, wouldn’t they be so envious of this and try their best to please her?
The third prince was very satisfied with Pei Yunhua in his words. The third prince obviously would protect the things she mentioned at the right time.
Then why worry about not being able to deal with that girl Pei Yunqi?
The Pei family members only have her third uncle protecting her on weekdays, but now her third uncle can’t take care of herself for the things that are done by the border army.
Her Xuzhou Jin family also has some power, but what can Pei Yunqi have?
Relying on that green eye?
What kind of storm can a young man outside the pass cause?
If he comes to Chang'an and Luoyang to interfere in this matter, he will naturally be as beautiful as him.
Thinking that when Pei Yunhua was young, she only gave a few tips, which made Pei Yunqiu dare not stay at home for too long, so she smiled proudly again.
Back then, Duke Pei could not resist himself, so he also added the word "Hua" to his daughter's name. Could it be that he could not play with a little girl?
In her opinion, Pei Yunhua's belongings are naturally her belongings, and the money in Pei Guogong's pocket is naturally her own belongings.
How could these things fall into Pei Yunqiu's hands?
...
The sunset fell into the city walls in Chang'an, leaving behind a brilliant sunset.
Some dim light passed through the vents and landed on moldy straw mats.
The fourth prince, who had already changed into prison uniform, looked at the dim light with some greed. He knew that this was probably the last time he had seen such sunshine.
He didn't resist much, and the people who detained him did not torture him.
But the more this happens, he knows that he should not survive tonight.
His father was always extremely decisive in his work, and he didn't know if some things had caused a great psychological impact on him before he ascended the throne. He always felt that some things could not be delayed, and delay would change immediately.
When the eunuch who was always following his father appeared in front of him with several practitioners, the thin and slightly pale prince knew that his guess was not wrong at all.
The eunuch, who has always been called "the great companion" by the emperor, looked at the fourth prince calmly and asked softly: "Fourth prince, I really want to know why you want to hide a private army in Youzhou?"
The fourth prince looked at him sarcastically, then lowered his head and said slowly, "I really want to know where I made my father hate me to the core, and the first one is to die?"
The eunuch sighed and asked seriously: "Tonight, will you commit suicide by fearing the crime. Do you want to break yourself up or do you want these people behind me to take action?"
The fourth prince smiled miserably. He stretched out his palm and gestured to his forehead for a few times, but he didn't have the courage to commit suicide.
The eunuch didn't say much, but just gave a wink at the practitioners behind him.
The cultivators behind him came forward instantly. The moment when the two of them controlled the fourth prince, a hemp rope was put on his neck.
When the fourth prince's body gradually became cold and the executioners left, the eunuch watched the fourth prince's tongue spitting out gradually change color, and then sighed again and said, "Ordinary people want to kill people, so they naturally hate that person. But if the emperor wants to kill people, they may not hate that person, but they must kill that person in order to do something. It's just that flies do not bite seamless eggs. If you learn more from the prince, you will not end like this."
...
"Brother Zhilu, General Xu."
When An Gui walked into Xu Tuibei's yard, Xu Tuibei and An Zhilu were having supper.
The cook arranged by Hua Cangming looks pretty good, but the dishes made are more exquisite, but the taste is not heavy enough and too light.
Although An Zhilu had already told the cook that Xu Tuibei's preference, Xu Tuibei was not very satisfied with this meal.
"General Xu, Mr. Gu sent me to bring you something."
Hearing An Gui say this, Xu Tuibei simply put the chopsticks, stood up, and walked towards the study.
An Zhilu also stood up, but Xu Tui waved his hand, "You keep eating."
An Zhilu nodded and said no more.
An Gui winked at An Zhilu, then followed Xu Tuibo into the study room, took out a package wrapped in butter paper from his arms, handed it to Xu Tuibo with great respect, and then turned around.
Xu Tuimei carefully opened the package and found that there were several booklets inside. He opened the booklet and flipped it over quickly, and he felt satisfied.
After hesitating for a moment, he put a few booklets into his arms, then walked straight out of the door, and when he walked to the door, he waved his hand without hesitation, "You two can chat for yourself, eat whatever you want, don't waste it."
"What?" After Xu Tui walked away, An Zhilu called An Gui over to eat and drink, and asked softly.
An Gui also whispered: "It feels like a few booklets. Judging from General Xu's situation, I think it may be the handle of some officials here, or the dirty things done by some people."
An Zhilu Xinzhi was probably the clue compiled by Songxi Academy that night. He nodded and was about to ask whether there was any latest progress in the concept of depravity, but An Gui took out a booklet from his sleeve without hesitation and handed it over, "I have sorted out a lot of useful things. Brother Zhilu, please see if it is useful first. It just so happened that Mrs. Zou and the others were also very concerned about the concept of depravity, so it is more convenient to start with some students involved in this matter."
An Zhilu's eyes suddenly showed a touching look. He said seriously, "Agui, you have already gained the trust of Miss Pei Er, so you only need to be safe when doing things. Never rush to do it, and don't affect your future."
"I understand, I will be careful next." An Gui smiled and said, "It's just that how much Brother Zhilu has done for us before, I naturally know very well. Now that I have the opportunity to do something for you, I will do my best to do it."
"What do you say? I'm a trivial matter, how can it compare to your future?" An Zhilu laughed and cursed, stuffed the booklet into her sleeve, and was not in a hurry to read it, but just asked An Gui to eat and drink.
After An Gui had enough food and drink, An Zhilu said seriously: "Agui, we finally made a fortune. Now even if we don't want to make progress, we will not be on the streets and cannot eat enough. However, after I have enough food and drink, I always think that the Tang Dynasty has wars every year, and there are many orphans every year. These orphans are many young, and I don't know if they can hold on to this kind of cold days. Compared with our affairs, I think this is the real big thing. I think... If you go to Chang'an, if you have any good business and some powerful ways, I will also help me think of ways to see if you can help such people."
An Gui was burping with satisfaction. Listening to his words, thinking of those days when he was hungry and even had to be beaten, his eyes suddenly turned red and he said, "Brother Zhilu, I will remember these words of you."
"Go, even if the nobles don't have any orders, wait by their side as much as possible." An Zhilu laughed, and he patted An Gui on the shoulder, "People like us can only wrap around the big trees like vines."
When An Gui left the door, An Zhilu quickly took the yard gate and returned to his room. She looked through the booklet as quickly as possible with an oil lamp.
Suddenly, his face changed drastically. After hesitating for several breaths, he took the booklet back into his sleeves and hurried out.
After leaving the house, his pace slowed down and his expression gradually calmed down. He wandered around like he did on weekdays. He first walked towards the direction of Xu Tuibei Yamen. After walking through several streets, he began to walk through the alleys, and broke for about a stick of incense, and walked around in front of a land temple.
This land temple has long been destroyed and there is only incense. There is a pity for an elderly widow here, so she withdraws a little copper coins every month and lets her live here. It is said that she is asking her to see the temple, but in fact it is for help.
An Zhilu knew very well that the old woman's two sons died in the battle of Tuhu Zhenshui. When he couldn't get food, the woman could at least give him some food. So since he began to support himself, he also took care of the old woman from time to time.
The old woman was still in a state of good health, but she had already had some ears. When An Zhilu walked up to her, she realized that she immediately happily greeted An Zhilu and sat down at the edge of the fire pit and burned hot water for him to drink.
An Zhilu suppressed her temper, drank a bowl of hot water, approached her and chatted with her for a few words, asked about her recent situation, and then gave her some copper coins before entering the only small side hall in the land temple.
There were originally a few small statues in this side hall, and I don’t know which local immortal was, but at this time it was so broken that only half of the body was left.
This side hall is full of debris, and the door is usually closed and no one comes in.
An Zhilu had already agreed with the old woman, and now even the old woman himself has not entered.
He entered the door of the side hall, took it with him, lit an oil lamp, and moved one of the broken statues away.
There was a hole under the statue. He reached out and took it out, lifted a few broken tiles, and then took out the wooden box.
With the experience of the last time, he was no longer afraid and opened the wooden box directly. He leaned closer and saw that the fire was shining. The strange and terrifying insect made a sound again.
However, compared with the last time, the insect seemed even more sick and dying.
His eyes did not stop at the insect too much, but just looked at the powder contained in the bottles quickly.
His eyes flashed violently quickly and violently. He took a deep breath and lifted a bottle containing indigo powder.
His fingers trembled slightly.
Then, he unfolded the booklet An Gui gave him and read the relevant records carefully.
There are some contents of the depravity in this booklet, but they have nothing to do with this insect. However, there are some introductions to a poisonous sect in Nanzhao, the previous dynasty. It clearly records that this sect has a strange heart gu, which is cultivated in the heart veins of babies with special constitutions.
When this heart gu is refined, the baby dies. Then the poisonous gu sect continues to feed the gu worm with a unique secret medicine. When the armor pieces on the gu worm fade away and several special flesh and whiskers grow, the practitioner can take it into his body. The gu worm is connected with the practitioner's heart vein and becomes a unique natal gu.
This life Gu can greatly enhance the level of practice of practitioners and has many special and wonderful uses.
