"Senior Tang, I would like to offer you a bowl." Gu Xiao sat down next to Tang Jiu, holding the wine bowl in his hand, and toasted to Tang Jiu.
At this moment, Tang Jiu was leaning against a scattered boulder, with a wine bag in one hand and a roasted rabbit in the other. He looked lazily at the Immortal in the Mist and Ren Bunan who were doing the drinking order. When he saw the young man trying to offer him a bowl, he smiled freely, and his heart was filled with joy. Understanding what the young man was thinking, he picked up the wine bag and spoke to the young man.
"Boy, I would like to advise you not to ask again."
Gu Xiao secretly thought that this Tang Jiuguo was Lao Jianghu. Before he spoke, he already knew his purpose, and then he smiled and said: "Senior, why did you say this? I just want to thank you for saving my life with this bowl of wine."
Tang Jiu glanced at the young man, then sat upright, picked up the wine bowl and drank the wine from the bowl with the young man, and then slowly said: "Boy, you are really good at this, but you know, in this world, In the middle, there are mountains outside the mountains, and there are people outside the people... Instead of wandering in the rivers and lakes, why not return to the Tang Sect with me."
Gu Xiao also felt Tang Jiu's thoughts and said seriously: "Senior's good intentions are understood by this junior. What I said before is true. Master and Uncle Li treat me like a son. No matter what, I will not abandon them. As for the world, Wandering around, there is really a reason why you have to break in.”
Tang Jiu drank all the wine in the bowl and said, "A moment of pleasure?"
Gu Xiao said truthfully: "Not bad."
Tang Jiu asked again: "Must we check?"
Gu Xiao replied firmly in his eyes: "Yes."
He thought Tang Jiu would reveal something, but Gu Xiao heard Tang Jiu change his subject: "For the sake of Jiang Ningxue, can I give up pursuing that moment of greedy pleasure?"
The young man was startled and hurriedly explained: "Senior, I misunderstood. Miss Jiang and I are because..."
Tang Jiu waved his hand and interrupted: "I'm too lazy to listen to what you young girls want when they meet. You just need to tell me whether you will give up looking for that moment of pleasure for her."
When Gu Xiao heard this, he shook his head slightly and said, "No."
Tang Jiu was slightly angry when he heard this, and shouted softly: "Did you know that she...you kid, has no eyesight?"
"Senior, I have misunderstood. Miss Jiang and I are not in a relationship. We are either close friends or fellow sects. We were trapped in Murong Valley, so we invited each other to come to Fengjia Castle to find the way to enter Murong Valley. ." Seeing that Tang Jiu was slightly angry, Gu Xiao had no choice but to explain.
When Tang Jiu heard what the young man said, he wanted to kill the person in front of him with one palm. Thinking of Jiang Ningxue, he had to calm down and said: "Boy, if you don't think about it carefully, if it was just a friendship, how could she use her body as a bait to lure you?" How can I give you my Tang Sword Lotus to protect you when you are chasing soldiers... What exactly is in your head..."
After hearing Tang Jiu's words, Gu Xiao's heart trembled, as if he understood. Just when he was about to explain, the Immortal in the Mist had already rushed in front of Gu Xiao and Tang Jiu with a wine bowl.
"I said, Mu boy, what are you mumbling about? I lost to you in the Qinggong competition. I asked you to invite me to drink for the first time, but you ran away. When you are bored, come on, come on. I just learned it. Let's have a little fun with the drinking order..." The Immortal in the Mist just lost the drinking order. His thousand-year cultivation was no match for the small Ren Bunan. In a depressed mood, he came to see Gu Xiao for a drink.
Gu Xiao was pulled up by the Fairy in the Mist's sleeves and pulled hard, so he had to stand up temporarily to deal with it. Unexpectedly, the Fairy in the Mist got excited about playing, and Gu Xiao couldn't resist the already tipsy Fairy in the Mist, and was forced to drink three bowls in a row. , and his body was suddenly unstable.
Seeing this, the three brothers He Bufan also stood up to drink with the young man. After going back and forth, Gu Xiao couldn't resist the words of these old gangsters to persuade him to drink. After three or five bowls of wine, he was already on the verge of falling and the world was spinning.
I originally wanted to control my body consciousness and talk about the clues of greed and pleasure for a while from Tang Jiu, but unexpectedly, the winter wind blew up in the mountains. The cold wind blew up, and I was so drunk that I fell to the ground, making everyone laugh. Not only that, this young hero walking with a sword also looked so embarrassed.
After being drunk, Gu Xiao only felt that his eyelids were heavy, his chest was tight and his throat was swollen. At this time, let alone go to Tang Jiu's place to explore some more pleasures, even getting up was difficult, so he had to sit on the ground, panting.
The crowd didn't notice this, they just drank and talked and laughed with each other. When the wine was gone, they went to look for the young man, only to find that he was already lying beside the stone, soundly asleep...
Gu Xiao was drunk until the moon reached the treetops, and then he gradually woke up. He was unbearably thirsty. Gu Xiao stood up unsteadily and wanted to find water to quench his thirst. Suddenly he saw a beautiful figure in green clothes standing next to the couch. In shock, he hurriedly raised his eyes to look. Go, only to see Lin'er covered in blood staring at him. Gu Xiao was about to ask questions, but Lin'er's figure disappeared and turned to Uncle Li...
"Lin'er, Uncle Li, you..." Gu Xiao hurriedly asked.
"You ungrateful person..." The two of them scolded Gu Xiao at the same time.
"Where are you? I'm going to rescue you right now." Gu Xiao was anxious and asked questions quickly.
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Xiao woke up from his dream and realized that he had had a nightmare.
After the drunkenness subsided, Gu Xiao made up his mind and couldn't wait any longer. He decided to leave for Yanbei today to search for Murong Valley. He was sure to find Lin'er, Uncle Li and others, so he picked up the sword box and prepared to go to Hua Chaoyuan. , went to say goodbye to Miss Feng and others.
"Mu Shaoxia's kindness to Feng Xiaoxiao for saving his life and for rebuilding my Fengjia Fort, why not leave a little more time for Feng Xiaoxiao to repay the kindness." In the Flower Chaoyuan, Miss Feng sat on the seat of the castle master. , hearing that the young man was about to say goodbye and leave Fengjiabao, he immediately offered words to persuade him to stay.
Not only Feng Xiaoxiao, but also Xiong Feng and other people from Fuyuan Escort Bureau and the three brothers He Bufan in the hall all asked to stay.
"Yes, little benefactor, we have spent so much time together, but you have to leave again..."
"Brother Mu, please stay a little longer."
"Yes, Mu Shaoxia, if you have such a big deal and you are in such a hurry to get on the road, why don't you tell us that we are all easy to do, so if you can use us, just ask."
Seeing the sincere expressions on everyone's faces, Gu Xiao felt warm in his heart. But then he thought of the words "It's better to follow the path of the King of Hell than enter Murong Valley." He swallowed the words on his lips, cupped his fists and spoke to everyone.
"I accept your kindness, but I am going here because of the master's order, so I have to go... It's not that I don't want everyone's help, but the Feng Family Fort now needs more manpower than I do. Why don't you help Miss Feng take care of it? Dear Fengjiabao, when I return from this trip, I will go back to Fengjiabao to visit you all."
Seeing that the young man was determined to say goodbye, everyone continued to ask to stay. Four Wheels Wind Xiaoxiao raised his eyebrows and looked sideways at the Immortal in the Mist who looked like his father, and asked: "Senior, how are you and your benefactor in the Eight Formations of Shimen?" We are familiar with each other, why don't you go and give me some advice..."
The Immortal in the Mist was already familiar with the young man's temperament in the Eighth Formation of Shimen. Seeing his appearance this time, he already knew that he had made up his mind to go. He opened his mouth and said to Feng Xiaoxiao: "Xiao Nizi, I see that this boy has made up his mind. Let's go, let's not try to keep him, he's not the kind of person who wants us to repay him, we just need to remember this kindness."
After listening to the words of the Immortal in the Mist, Feng Xiaoxiao felt deeply, so she stopped everyone's attempts to persuade him to stay, and said to the young man: "Since Mr. Mu has important things to do, it is not convenient for us to delay. We hope that Mr. Mu will Remember, no matter what difficulties you encounter in the future and you need me, Fengjiabao, all you have to do is ask."
Gu Xiao cupped his fists and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Miss Feng. As soon as Mu finishes his work, he will come back to bother you again. I'm afraid that Fengjiabao's fine wine and snow rabbits will suffer as well."
It was originally a slightly sad farewell, but the young man made the whole room burst into laughter. It turned out that Gu Xiao and others were living in the forest today, raising firewood, drinking wine and barbecuing, and attracted the people from the Fuyuan Escort Bureau who were on duty. It was said that someone had manipulated them. When Huo Shaoshan looked around, he saw that everyone was drinking, but the benefactor had already fallen asleep drunk. He Bufan and others were still singing to the wine. Only then did everyone from the Fuyuan Escort carry the benefactor back to his room to rest.
When Gu Xiao saw that the farewell had been completed, he was ready to leave immediately, and Feng Xiaoxiao also ordered He Bufan and the others to prepare horse food, clothing, and money for Gu Xiao.
As for what the remnant soul said before it died, Gu Xiao was not in the mood to pursue it any further at the moment. He just thought that if he got a chance to find Lin'er and others, he would investigate in detail when he came back to Fengjiabao.
Thinking of Jiang Ningxue's injury, Gu Xiao also didn't want her to leave with her injuries. He already had some concerns in his mind, so he asked He Bufan to get a pen and paper, prepare a handwritten letter, and entrust it to He Bufan to wait for Miss Jiang's injury to recover. Finally, he handed it to her personally.
He Bufan readily agreed, and when Gu Xiao wrote the letter and dried the ink stains, Ren BuNan and others arrived with the prepared horses and silver.
Surrounded by everyone, Gu Xiao walked out of the gate of Fengjiabao. He looked back and saw everyone's reluctant expressions. Gu Xiao got on his horse, cupped his fists and spoke to everyone.
"It's time to say goodbye. I'll see you again. Please stay."
Everyone clasped their fists when they saw this.
"Mu Shaoxia, take care."
"Mu Shaoxia, don't forget us and come back early."
The Immortal in the Mist, who was pushing Feng Xiaoxiao, looked at the young man on the horse and said loudly: "Boy, don't try to force yourself to do anything, and don't use your evil weapon indiscriminately."
Gu Xiao grew up in the mountains with only his master and Uncle Li as his companions. Now seeing the reluctance on the faces of everyone, his heart surges with warmth... But the tragic scene of Lin'er and Uncle Li in his dream still lingers in his heart, and he is heartbroken. , pulled up the reins, Gu Xiao clamped the horse's belly tightly, and said in his mouth: "Drive!"
The horse was in pain and immediately spread its hooves and galloped away...
——
Under the moon, Qing Shi rode his horse forward. Within half an hour, Fengjiabao was no longer in sight. Gu Xiao concentrated on riding his horse and rode forward in the direction of Yanbei City.
The whistling wind passed by his ears, and he could not distinguish the sound of Qinggong's clothes, but Gu Xiao found a slight sound in the winter wind.
He couldn't help but think of what the remnant soul said, of course someone would avenge him. Immediately, a look of alertness appeared in the young man's eyes. Although his pair of starry eyes were staring at the road ahead, he used the corner of his eyes to look for the person following him.
Sure enough, under the moonlight, Gu Xiao searched several times and finally saw a figure following closely behind him on the treetops.
Just when he was thinking about how to force the person following him to show up, unexpectedly, the person seemed to realize that the young man had noticed something. With his body moving, he actually jumped over the treetops behind him, directly surpassing the speed of the young man's horse. Already blocked on the way.
Gu Xiao sat down and rode quickly, he was about to bump into this person in an instant. Seeing this, Gu Xiao quickly pulled the reins and muttered: "Hey..."
The horse's hooves raised up and almost kicked the man. Gu Xiao hurriedly controlled the horse and finally stopped. Looking sideways, he saw that it was still the wide robe tied sideways and the bamboo hat on his head. It was not Tang Jiu, but Who will it be.
"Senior Tang." Seeing that it was Tang Jiu, Gu Xiao quickly turned over and dismounted.
Tang Jiu lazily closed his eyes and glanced lightly, then said: "Even if I am not from Qi Yun, it is still an acquaintance. We left without saying goodbye. Is it because I didn't tell you about that moment of pleasure?"
Gu Xiao hurriedly said: "Senior Tang, don't be surprised. It's not that I left without saying goodbye. It was just a drink today. When I was saying goodbye in the evening, I saw that Senior Tang had not left the gate of Muxiayuan. I was afraid of disturbing Senior's rest, and even more afraid of disturbing... Jiang The girl is recovering from her injuries..."
"You kid, please come here. According to what you said, you and Jiang Ningxue agreed to go together to find that Murong Valley. Why did you leave her alone?" Tang Jiu waved his hand and asked.
Gu Xiao cupped his fists and said: "Senior, please forgive me, Miss Jiang was seriously injured in Hejiabao this time. I... feel guilty in my heart. Murong Gu and his party are afraid that it will be even more dangerous than this Hejiabao. Miss Jiang's injury has not yet healed." , I don’t want her to go on an adventure together, so I have left a handwritten letter for Brother He to pass on..."
"Well, I don't have time to listen to your gossip. I'm too lazy to care about your Murong Valley. I just want to ask you, do you have to go to that Murong Valley..." Tang Jiu didn't want to listen to what Gu Xiao had to say. He just asked calmly. 33
"yes."
The moonlight shone on the young man's green shirt, his eyes were firm, and he replied.
"Even if I tell you what I know about a moment of greed, can't we wait a little longer until Jiang Ningxue recovers from her injury and go together?" Tang Jiu asked again.
Gu Xiao thought of what he saw in his nightmare when he sobered up at night, and his eyes became more determined.
"Senior, please forgive me... I can afford to wait, but my dear friends and elders who have disappeared cannot afford to wait. As for Miss Jiang's fellow disciples, as long as I enter Murong Valley, I will naturally take them back together."
Some people died, but not completely...
