Chapter 239: Day and Night in Chang'an
The evil things of the present, the magical powers of the past.
Evil things are evil things, where do big evil things and small evil things come from?
When Gu Liubai saw this word, he felt that these Hu monks from the Middle Heaven were talking nonsense, and things that were not of high quality were forced to raise the level.
Sure enough, it was the same as he expected.
Tan Ling hid at the end of the secret note and wrote it in detail.
These two small evil things were originally real magical objects, but this Feiziling was originally a magic weapon of a Tantric monk. After the battle with people fell, the Feiziling itself was severely damaged. In addition, when it was discovered, it had lost the warmth of its true energy for too long, so it had lost some of its magical powers.
Originally, a black air could fly out of each of the seven orifices of the flying corpse tomb. The seven black air could condense a large amount of true energy like a rune, forming a black-faced magic image.
This black-faced magic image can fly hundreds of feet to hurt people.
But now there are only three orifices left in the seven orifices of the flying corpse tomb. They can only fly out three black air to plot against people, and cannot form a magical image, and their power cannot be compared with before. Fortunately, these three black airs can still be controlled from a hundred meters away, and they are shaped like three large moths. If they are used to attack in the night, it would be a powerful tool.
According to Tan Lingzang, it would be great if Canglang Sword Sect and Gu Shiwu competed with each other at night. If you use this thing to conspire from afar, as long as you grasp the time well, you may not be able to take Gu Shiwu's life.
No matter how powerful these three black gases are, they are much stronger than ordinary arrows, and they can easily change their direction.
As for another Haishizhu as a reward, it is also part of the real magical power.
The original complete magical object was a royal magic weapon in Tianzhu, a bead string used by women. In addition to the Haishi bead, there were three other magical beads on the bead string, but the bead string had been damaged, leaving only this Haishi bead.
The biggest function of this bead is hidden energy, which prevents people from detecting the fluctuations of true energy when using the method.
The second function is to be able to forge the false true qi method.
Different Dharma images can be forged according to the number of true qi input.
All practitioners know that when the garbage method of true qi is used with all their strength, the stimulation of true qi cannot involve much energy in heaven and earth, and it cannot form any Dharma image.
If the Dharma is powerful enough and the cultivation is insufficient, it will not create the Dharma image.
Therefore, the biggest function of being able to forge Dharma images is to bluff people.
Once the Dharma image is revealed, others may not dare to take action when they see that this Dharma image is so powerful.
But Gu Liubai thought about it and said that putting this Haishizhu on him could be used to conceal his true Dharma image.
After all, the true qi method he practiced was too amazing, and once it was revealed, it was a huge city.
At that time, even if you wear a mask and fight with someone, your true energy will run violently, and this Dharma image will not be concealed and will be recognized by others.
The key is that they are all for free, so it’s not too picky.
Tan Lingzang mentioned a secret note at the end, and there were unconfirmed records that among the two small evil things sent this time, the flying corpse tomb may have something to do with the evil thing in the hands of the Mani monk.
It is said that they came from the same sect, but there is no relevant record of what kind of connection there exists between the two, what is the name of the evil thing and what magical powers it has.
"This Tan Lingzang is very serious and fast, just because I want someone to go there."
These two items seemed very expensive to Tan Lingzang. They were not sent with the secret notes, but were brought over by another caravan and placed in a shop in the West City. They said that for safety reasons, the "Fifth Prince" wanted to get them personally.
Gu Liubai usually goes by himself without any trouble. Now he is busy preparing to compete with the Canglang Sword Sect's sword. He has a little idea and let Qiao Huangyun go and make it happen.
As a result, I just asked Yin Shiniang to ask Qiao Huangyun for help, but An Gui said that a student came to him to wish him a New Year.
“Which student?”
"If you don't talk about the origin, just say that the name is easy to remember, it's called the Winter Solstice. But you don't tell me that you don't make a name, and don't let others know that he is here."
"Is that boy? Then bring him to see me."
Gu Liubai was immediately happy. Isn’t this Wu Yanhong’s son?
...
Not long after Zheng Dongzhi followed An Gui into Gu Liubai's courtyard.
Gu Liubai thought it was fun when he saw him.
This guy with a sturdy and strong skeleton looks like an honest kitten in front of Wu Yanhong, but now when Wu Yanhong is not around him, he looks arrogant.
Although he was young, he was stalking with his head held high, which was a bit like a dragon and a tiger. Especially when he entered the yard, he was like an older person, carrying his hands on his back and looking around.
He looked at the courtyard, frowned slightly, nodded again, and even started to judge, "It's a bit shabby, but fortunately it's still tidy. It seems that you are a clean person at least."
Gu Liubai's mouth almost opened his eyes, "You evil disciple, you are here to greet New Year. When you see me, don't you greet him first?"
"My mother is not here, so I don't mess with those false ones." Zheng Dongzhi waved his hand very arrogantly, "And my mother has always told me that false love is no better than a serious gift."
After saying this, he shouted to the back, "Let's sneak in."
A middle-aged man who looked like a housekeeper immediately walked in with a bamboo basket covered with red cloth.
Zheng Dongzhi took the bamboo basket, then waved his hand arrogantly, "Go out and wait first."
The middle-aged man didn't say much. After bowing to him and Gu Liubai, he left the yard and covered the yard with a false impression.
Zheng Dongzhi lifted the red cloth on the bamboo basket, "Please look at it, teacher."
Gu Liubai was so happy that he couldn't even close his mouth.
The bamboo basket is shaking silver, a layer of silver ingots.
Zheng Dongzhi said proudly: "How about it, do you still need to bow?"
Gu Liubai felt more and more interesting than Du Tianpeng. He smiled and said, "What's wrong, isn't it yellow?"
Zheng Dongzhi's eyes suddenly widened, "Why, the money is not enough, do you still want gold?"
Gu Liubai smiled and said, "Even if it's money, you're still a fool. The basket is covered with hay, and a thin layer on it. You are not honest in paying New Year's greetings to the teacher. Why don't you learn well but instead learn the unscrupulous merchants who sell fruits on the official road?"
Zheng Dongzhi's face turned red, but he immediately snorted heavily, "What, is this layer of silver not enough? Judging from the shabby appearance of your courtyard, my silver is enough for you to use for three years."
Gu Liubai smiled miserably, and he held his stomach and said, "That's more, I can hardly spend any money all year round."
"Then you still think it's too much." Zheng Dongzhi immediately calmed down. He looked at Gu Liubai, pondered for a while, and said, "As long as you promise me something, I will give you this basket of gold until next New Year."
Gu Liubai said deliberately, "There is also a layer on top?"
Zheng Dongzhi said impatiently, "Of course it's the same, otherwise I would have accumulated so much gold in a year."
Gu Liubai smiled and said, "So, you came to greet me today, because you came to pay my New Year's greetings secretly. These are the money you saved up?"
Zheng Dongzhi raised his eyebrows and walked a few steps behind his hands, then said in a deep voice, "Don't worry about this, if you want gold, just promise me what you want."
Seeing the tiger-headed baby pacing and concealing his appearance after being seen through, Gu Liubai laughed and screamed, "What are you talking about first."
Zheng Dongzhi said, "In a few days, you will tell my mother that you don't want to be my teacher anymore. I will give you gold at that time."
Gu Liubai smiled and said, "Why do you want me to do this?"
Zheng Dongzhi said: "When I saw you smiling at my mother, I knew you were not serious. I probably just a slutty person who made a living by cheating women. I just bullyed my mother, who is not very familiar with the world."
"Is your mother very familiar with the world?" Gu Liubai's lips twitched so much that his smile was so hard that his lips almost twitched.
"My father always says she is innocent, says she is too well protected, and says she is like an ignorant little girl's house." Zheng Dongzhi looked at Gu Liubai and became a little impatient, "I tell you, don't think that my mother is easy to deceive, you just want to deceive him. I'm watching, and my father is not easy to mess with. If you really make my mother blind, my father will cut you into eighteen sections to feed the fish."
Gu Liubai shivered deliberately, "Thirteenth section is a bit scary."
"It's all light to say eighteenth paragraphs." Zheng Dongzhi looked at Gu Liubai with contempt and said, "I see you look shabby. You probably haven't seen so much gold in Chang'an Chang. You honestly promise me what you promised me, believe me, this is for your own good."
Gu Liubai deliberately pondered, "No, I'd better not."
Zheng Dongzhi was originally proud and satisfied. When he heard Gu Liubai refused, he was stunned, "Why?"
Gu Liubai said with a smile, "The bigger the wind and waves, the bigger the fish. Although there is a risk of being cut into the 17th and 18th stages, I think that if you are honest in your teacher, your mother will give you more, not to mention that your mother looks very pleasing to the eye."
"You!" Zheng Dongzhi became angry in an instant, "Oh, you little thief, you really covet my mother's beauty!"
"Who covets the beauty?"
The faintly hidden courtyard gate was pushed open, and Pei Yun's voice sounded.
When Zheng Dongzhi turned his head, he first saw Pei Yunji who was pushing the door in.
Pei Yunqi was wearing a dark blue robe today, with golden silk embroidered with five bat patterns, and her waist was tied so that her whole body looked extremely charming. Moreover, she rarely tied her hair, which looked refreshing and luxurious and beautiful.
There are many beautiful women in the Zheng Mansion, but Zheng Dongzhi has never seen a woman like Pei Yunqi, who is full of heroism, handsome face and a good figure before.
His eyes suddenly became a little straight.
Pei Yunqiu was happy when he saw him, "Are you coveting beauty?"
Zheng Dongzhi shook his head in panic.
As a result, Shangguan Zhaoyi followed him in again.
Today, Shangguan Zhaoyi wore a white jacket, which really looked like a fairy who had just landed in the sky.
Zheng Dongzhi shook his head just now, but his eyes suddenly became straight, and a voice sounded in his mind, "Oh my god, why are the fairies queuing up to enter the yard?"
As a result, Shangguan Zhaoyi followed Pei Yunhua.
Zheng Dongzhi is also knowledgeable. When he saw Pei Yunhua, he suddenly felt noble and thought that he was not the concubine in the palace, so dignified and beautiful?
"Little thief, wipe your saliva." Gu Liubai smiled and cursed, and then explained to the three beautiful girls who came in, "This is Wu Yanhong's son of the Zheng family. He secretly came to give me a gift, but he asked to keep me away from him and his mother."
"Why am I a little thief!" Zheng Dongzhi shouted as soon as he heard this, "I saw these sisters look like fairies, which are rare in the world. What does it have to do with you if I take a look at them a few more times."
Pei Yunqiu laughed out loud when she heard this. She glanced at Gu Liubai who was smiling and silently, then looked at Zheng Dongzhi and said, "It really has something to do with him."
Zheng Dongzhi was stunned, "What's the relationship?"
Pei Yunqi smiled and said softly, "You have to call me Master's wife."
"What?" Zheng Dongzhi suddenly felt that the sky had collapsed.
Shangguan Zhaoyi also thought he was fun and couldn't help laughing.
Zheng Dongzhi had an ominous premonition in his mind. He looked at Shangguan Zhaoyi, "You should have nothing to do with this Gu person?"
Shangguan Zhaoyi glanced at Pei Yunqiu and smiled, "Ask her."
Pei Yunqi deliberately teased Zheng Dongzhi without hesitation at all, "You have to call her master's wife."
"What!"
Zheng Dongzhi was numb and he looked at Pei Yunhua in disbelief.
Pei Yunqi did not hesitate and whispered: "Your master's wife will be the future."
Gu Liubai looked at the tiger-headed baby with a smile. He felt that Zheng Dongzhi would never think that he was greedy for his mother's beauty. Unexpectedly, Zheng Dongzhi was shaking all over, and he was so angry that his fingers stretched out and pointed at him: "You slut, you have deceived so many girls."
Gu Liubai didn't respond to him this time, but turned around to the side of the firewood pile on the side of the courtyard wall, picked up and took a relatively flexible branch.
"what are you up to?"
Zheng Dongzhi finally smelled a bad breath.
"Last time you owe a beating. When you come to Master to pay New Year's greetings during the Chinese New Year, you not only have a arrogant attitude but also slander your master. That's two beatings. Next, you watch your master's wife drool and don't beat her. Wouldn't you really become a traitor when you are old? You beat her in total three beatings." Gu Liubai looked at Zheng Dongzhi with malicious intentions. The more you looked, the little guy felt strong and his bones were really good. "You have a good foundation, and you probably don't lack medicine for damage at home. Let's fight together today."
"You dare!" Zheng Dongzhi turned his head and wanted to run away, but Pei Yunqi cooperated with each other and had already closed the gate of the yard. He put one hand on the hilt of the sword matching the sword, and smiled at him, "Little kid, the sword has no eyes."
Zheng Dongzhi's face turned pale in an instant. He looked at Gu Liubai who was walking over with malicious intentions and shouted, "At least I'll give you a basket of silver!"
Gu Liubai laughed as soon as he heard this, "I'll give gifts to the teacher and play the tricks used by vendors who sell fruits at the official road, insulting your teacher's wisdom and insulting your teacher's personality. If you beat me again, that's four beats."
"Old Zhan, save me!" Zheng Dongzhi immediately shouted at the outside of the yard.
But no one rushed in outside the yard.
The branches in Gu Liubai's hand were already slammed into his butt with the whistling sound of the wind.
With a snap.
"ah!"
Zheng Dongzhi only felt that his butt was hot. With his experience of being beaten, he would have no need to take off his pants to see it. There must be a blood mark.
"You really fight?"
While shouting for help, Zheng Dongzhi fled all over the yard and shouted, "You really dare to hit me. When I grow up, I will beat you to death."
Gu Liubai smiled, "If you dare to threaten the teacher, then add another one and get five beats."
"I……"
Zheng Dongzhi finally found out that this person promised to be his teacher, and it seemed that he just liked to hit him.
So perverted?
Am I my biological child?
He panicked.
Dodge everywhere.
But no matter how fast he hid, he would not be as fast as Gu Liubai's body and sword skills.
It happened that Gu Liubai had a new experience of some sword moves during his practice during this period, and he also needed to adapt to the growth of his true energy, so he used all kinds of sword moves to this kid.
Crack...
Zheng Dongzhi kept ringing.
At first, Zheng Dongzhi shouted for help, but after more than a dozen breaths, he was left with only howling.
"Try to hide!"
Gu Liubai finally regained the feeling that Guo Beixi beat him back then.
Some pictures that had disappeared into my mind suddenly appeared in my heart.
"What did you learn before? I can't hide it all at once?"
"When you hit your legs, what do you jump? You have to take a few more strokes when your body falls down?"
"You see clearly whether it is a stab, a smash, or a sweep when it falls on you. What's the use of running to the side when you come and run to the side when you sweep to the side."
"What kind of crotch do you protect when you spank? Whether you are beaten or fight, the most taboo is to panic."
"What are you rubbing? When you are beaten, won't it hurt if you rub it? You protect the most painful parts of your body!"
Gu Liubai thought of the scene when Guo Beixi first taught him swordsmanship. His nose felt a little sore, and he subconsciously shouted out what Guo Beixi taught him a lesson.
Naturally, the scene of Guo Beixi hitting himself with various "murder weapons" appeared in his mind. Many body movements and many sword moves appeared one by one in his mind.
He had many insights during this period, and these shadows appeared quietly, as if they had spanned time and space, and gradually coincided with the shadows he used his sword at this time.
Not to mention that Shangguan Zhaoyi had never seen Gu Liubai using his sword well, even Pei Yunqiu looked at Gu Liubai's sword technique at this time and felt that it was too different from the time when he was in Heishawa.
The black shawar was already elegant and agile enough, but when Gu Liubai used his sword moves, he had a more majestic and natural flavor.
The connection between moves and moves is not at all stiff or unnatural, just like those sword moves should have been connected together and used in one go.
Zheng Dongzhi, this tiger-headed kid, is also quite interesting.
He howled for a while and found it useless, and cursed, "You are so inauthentic. You can beat me wherever I am tender, it hurts me."
"What's the point of beating you if you don't hurt?"
Gu Liubai smiled and beat him, "Where you care the most, remember where you can't be beaten the most."
Zheng Dongzhi was so angry that he cursed, "I can't hide anywhere, it hurts everywhere."
Gu Liubai smiled, "Then you have to get a few more beats to remember."
"Forget it, you can fight!"
Zheng Dongzhi was too lazy to hide, so he immediately rolled onto the ground with his head in his arms, meaning I was lying flat, so you can fight.
However, what he didn't expect was that Gu Liubai smiled and lit the branches in his hand a few times. Zheng Dongzhi couldn't bear to eat and hurt. He screamed in pain, and then touched his body and started running.
"Remember, when you really fight with people, no matter how tired or painful it is, you can't have the idea of giving up." Gu Liubai smiled and chased after him. His voice was like a demon's murmur, constantly coming into Zheng Dongzhi's ears. "As long as you have a slight idea of giving up at any time, you will not regret it."
"You are so bad." Zheng Dongzhi ran for a while and was a little out of breath. His whole body felt as if it was cracked, but after he cursed, he found that something seemed to be wrong.
After a few more cracklings, he found that he could not escape the small branch that was chasing him, but when he ran, he seemed to be more flexible than usual.
Sometimes his legs subconsciously avoid the hit branches, and he felt that it would be smoother for him to hide.
"Can you become more powerful if you get beaten?" He was not stupid, and asked while crying out the pain.
Gu Liubai chased and beat him with a smile, "I don't know about others, but I should be able to get more powerful after being beaten."
Zheng Dongzhi was very angry, "Damn it, the beats I had been beaten in vain."
"I really can't go in?"
Outside the yard of Gu Liubai, about ten feet away from the road, a middle-aged teacher listened to Zheng Dongzhi's various screams and his eyebrows were furrowed, "This sounds like a big blow. If it is broken, can it work?"
The man who looked like a housekeeper who had entered the basket was also a little worried, but he still said solemnly, "Mrs. I gave it to you before coming, so let's wait here honestly."
The middle-aged teacher sighed helplessly, "This kid is smart and thinks his wife doesn't know he's coming, but he ends up coming to the door and being beaten hard."
The man who looked like a housekeeper smiled bitterly, "Whoever thinks that comes is just a beat. Judging from this, I will have to beat you in the future."
Although I was prepared, this fight was a bit long.
It took half an hour for the two of them to beat him. When they heard Zheng Dongzhi's voice inside, they were hoarse. When the two of them were almost unable to hold back, the yard door finally opened.
I saw Zheng Dongzhi walking out staggeringly.
The two rushed over quickly.
Zheng Dongzhi's face was fine, but the butler looked like a housekeeper reached out and helped Zheng Dongzhi's unsteady feet softened. He pulled open a corner of his clothes and looked at it, and only saw that there were blue and purple inside, but blood marks everywhere.
"Is this guy really going to kill him?"
The butler's hands were shaking.
"It's really dark to start." Zheng Dongzhi was pulled by his clothes, and his whole body was shaking in pain, but he shouted hoarsely, "It's so good to hit him!"
"You are still stubborn at this time!" The butler wanted to carry Zheng Dongzhi into the carriage to apply medicine, but was afraid that he would hurt too much, so he could only help him walk slowly, and at the same time he was speechless about his toughness.
"You don't understand." Zheng Dongzhi sighed, "It's worth it today. It's really because the previous beating was in vain. When you go back, you won't be beaten. If you want to be beaten, let the teacher beat you."
"??" The housekeeper and the middle-aged teacher were stunned.
Is this a good fight? Is it a good idea to open the trick or break the head?
...
At night.
The prince was quietly watching a historical book in the study.
This historical book tells the process of how the Li family finally gained power in the late Sui Dynasty.
Li's history book is different from the version of the outside history book. The process of some things and the truth involved are even completely opposite to the circulating history books.
A middle-aged scholar entered the study with a pile of old books. When the prince saw it, he bowed slightly and shouted to the teacher.
"If you have time to read these books, it is very useful for some things that are about taking advantage of the power." The middle-aged scholar put the old books aside, looked at the things that the prince was reading, and frowned slightly, saying, "Why do you read this again? I have read it more than ten times. If it is spread, it will make your father feel that you are learning how to rebel."
"I'll just look here." The prince smiled faintly and said, "It was because Master Zheng came here that I didn't avoid it. I had already hidden it after someone came in. Although I had read it more than ten times, for some reason, every time I looked at it, I felt that there was something I had not understood in it. I always felt that Li's family finally won the country. Some important reasons were hidden in the details I had not seen."
The middle-aged scholar glanced at the prince. Although the prince didn't see anything at this time, based on his understanding of the prince, he felt that the prince had seen something.
"Is it still not moving this time?" the middle-aged scholar pondered for a while and asked.
The prince nodded and said calmly, "Before seeing clearly what the father is going to do, it is good to remain unmoved. And now it seems that in addition to the third brother, there is actually a powerful figure hidden in the palace who is secretly stirring up the situation. Many clans have made moves this time, so we can take the opportunity to force this person out."
"The second, the seventh, and the eighth one have used methods. Maybe there are some problems with our previous speculation." The middle-aged scholar pondered.
The prince glanced at the history books that had been put down, smiled slightly, and said, "Teacher, maybe both the fifth or the sixth, and your previous speculations have ignored a problem."
The middle-aged scribe's expression did not change much, and he said calmly, "What's the problem?"
The prince said seriously, "Is it possible that this person may not be a man?"
The middle-aged scholar frowned deeply.
He nodded slowly, stopped talking, and then turned around and walked out of the prince's study room.
...
Ganye Temple has always been a meditation center, with almost no visitors on weekdays, and no one in Chang'an pays special attention.
However, some people who could know the emperor's whereabouts quickly and keenly realized that after the emperor had visited Ganye Temple, there were always soldiers guarding around Ganye Temple.
As long as someone tries to approach Ganye Temple, he will definitely be investigated.
In addition to some Li's practitioners around the temple, many eunuchs in the palace also moved around.
Some people who are interested in exploring the qi have been viewed and quickly gave up this idea.
According to their judgment, unless they are eighth-rank, they will not even want to escape the eyes and ears of the two eunuchs and enter Ganye Temple.
What's more, there was a very special aura surging in Ganye Temple at this time.
The aura was like a dark cloud that always cages Ganye Temple, and it seemed that something particularly terrifying was being nurtured inside.
Outsiders didn't know that the entire Ganye Temple was empty at this time, and everyone else was placed elsewhere. Only the bald Yanni was left in the entire temple.
At this time, she was walking towards a stone pond.
This stone pond is in the stone chamber below a monastery.
The stone chamber was carved from the mountain wall, and a clear spring flowed out from the stone wall and poured into the stone pond continuously.
The spring water in the stone pond is milky white like milk. No matter how much spring water flows in, the water in the stone pond is always flush with the ground and does not overflow.
As soon as she walked into the stone chamber, she took off her robe and was instantly naked.
She was really like white jade, with a concave and concave, which was particularly attractive. As she walked, a faint jade-colored luster was flowing in her skin.
The spring water is a cold spring, emitting a bitter cold air, and layers of white frost continue to appear along the pond.
But she walked into the pool without feeling the cold until it was over her head.
She didn't float up to breathe, but the water in the pool gradually shines and becomes warmer.
After a full stick of incense, the cold spring water in this pond gradually boiled, and bubbles kept gurgling with her body as the center.
Her white and jade-like skin gradually turned red, but it still didn't float.
After a while, her body shook, and she walked slowly as if she felt something was wrong, slowly showing her head out of the water.
The water in this pool was still boiling, but she was not at all hindered.
She just raised her head slowly with some confusion, and her eyes seemed to be heading towards somewhere in the temple through the stone wall.
On the other end of the temple, on one side of the roof, Luang Pak sat quietly.
The bald Yanni felt it for a long time, but she didn't notice anything unusual.
She smiled self-deprecatingly, thinking that it might be a sudden change and pressure.
She slowly retreated and sank into the pool of water again.
The water in the pool boiled even more violently, layer by layer of red vital energy and black vital energy quietly emerged on the water surface, constantly twisting and surging, and gradually condensed into two sword-holding boys one foot.
These two boys are a man and a woman, red is a woman and black is a man. They are both lifelike in their faces, and they are traction in their hands, forming small swords.
These two sword-holding boys actually started fighting on the boiling water.
The boiling water vapor was stirred and rolled endlessly, like clouds in the sky.
While these two sword-holding boys were fighting, the sword energy was scattered and hissing sounded. The extremely exquisite sword moves were picked up at will.
Luang Po sat quietly for a long time, but at this moment, he shook his head as if he was missing his interest, and he felt that this girl was not the person she was looking for.
Her figure moved, floated out of the roof, and disappeared into the darkness in an instant.
In some streets and alleys in Chang'an City.
The man in his fifties who looked very ordinary but caused Luang Po to be in a sensation before entering the city ignored the curfew and walked out of the courtyard where he lived.
Suddenly, he paused and frowned slightly.
Chapter completed!
