Heyang City.
Not far from the county government office, there is a mansion with four entrances and four exits.
Three figures were entering the room and walking towards the inner courtyard.
The two people walking in front were two servants dressed in gray linen clothes. These two servants were both in their thirties or forties. At this moment, their foreheads were sweating, their expressions were tense, and their eyes were full of fear. color.
The two servants walked very fast, as if they were afraid of being overtaken by some ferocious beast and torn apart alive.
Behind these two people, followed a bloated figure.
This bloated figure was about ten feet tall, carrying a dark golden heavy sword on his shoulder. He took long strides and followed the two servants.
With each step he took, the distance he covered was equivalent to the four or five steps taken by the two servants. One thigh was thicker than the two villains tied together, and his palms were as broad as door panels, and his bare legs were The big white feet left footprints half as long as a man and a half wherever they stepped.
The face of this bloated figure was somewhat deformed.
His face looked like it had been burned by fire and was full of scars. One eye was smashed, crushed into the flesh, and then grew back together. The other eye had no eyelid and was covered with bloodshot eyes. There was only half of his nose, and both his upper and lower lips were missing. None, two rows of sharp white teeth, drooling from them,
It looks really permeable.
No wonder the two servants leading the way were so panicked.
Even the guards in the mansion were trembling and frightened as if they had seen an evil ghost when they saw such a terrifying figure.
The three of them walked through the mansion for a few moments and came to the inner courtyard. Two servants brought the strange man to a pavilion.
Inside the pavilion.
Xu He, the chief registrar of Heyang County, stood with his hands behind his back. When he noticed someone coming, he turned his head to look, his face slightly changed with fright. However, he was an old official in the officialdom after all, so he soon calmed down calmly, his expression There was also a faint hint of smile on the face.
"But the Tu Liang brothers mentioned in Xu Su and Xu Tianjiao's letter?"
Xu He waved his hand, dismissed the two servants, and asked.
This scary-looking weirdo nodded when he heard this, and said in a strange tone: "I, Tu Liang, have met Mr. Xu."
"please."
Xu He turned around, picked up the teapot on the stone table behind him, poured a cup of tea for Tu Liang, and made a greeting gesture to Tu Liang.
Tu Liang was not polite. He took one step and stepped into the pavilion. He sat on the stone bench, picked up the tea cup and poured it into his mouth: "I heard that the old Taoist priest who sucked all the energy away before Brother Xu is still alive." ?”
Xu He felt the vibration of the pavilion and his brows jumped.
"Xu sent someone to kill the old Taoist before, but the person he sent didn't return for a long time. As a last resort, Xu sent another group of people to check." Xu He poured a cup of tea for Tu Liang again and spoke eloquently.
"After this group of people arrived, they discovered that the two people sent before had died in the Taoist temple!"
"The bodies of the two people were cut into four parts, and the cuts were charred and black. They should have been killed by someone using the True Form of Fire Talisman. Apart from the bodies of these two people, the Taoist temple was full of people. .”
"Later, Xu sent someone to investigate and found out that the two young Taoist priests from the Taoist temple were taken into Heyang City by an old Taoist priest who claimed to have traveled to Jingzhou and settled in an inn... press According to what this old Taoist said, Gu Yunqing, who was drained of his true energy by Xu Tianjiao, was already dead when he rushed to the mountain. In order to save the two little Taoist priests, he killed the two people Xu sent before."
"Xu doesn't believe a word of this."
"From Xu's point of view, this old Taoist is probably Gu Yunqing! Although Gu Yunqing doesn't go out often and has never been to Heyang City, Xu has never met him... But how can there be such a coincidence in the world? That's where Gu Yunqing died. At that time, there happened to be a traveling Taoist priest who went to the mountain to visit?"
"What's more..." Xu He said with a gloomy expression.
"What's more, that man is really a wandering Taoist priest. He has interfered in Gu Yunqing's affairs, so he wants to die, right?" Tu Liang seemed a little impatient, casually crushed the tea cup to pieces, and used a weird The tone interrupted Xu He's words.
Xu He narrowed his eyes, nodded and said, "Yes."
…
Heyang City, Zhenxing Pavilion.
In the back hall, in a certain house.
He Caiyun, who was practicing with his eyes closed, moved his eyebrows slightly and opened his eyes.
She looked at the door, feeling the subtle vibrations outside the door from far to near, her eyes flashed, and she uttered one word: "Come in."
With a creaking sound, the door was pushed open.
A man of about thirty years old with a scar on his face walked in. He was dressed in black and had a sad look on his face. He said to He Caiyun: "Master, Tu Liang from Jianshan Mountain is here and has gone to Master Xu's house."
"Worship Tu Liang of Jianshan?" He Caiyun narrowed his eyes.
"That is the seventh-ranked monster among the disciples of the Sword Worshiping Mountain. It is enough to compete with some of the older generation of strong men, and it has a record of surpassing the second level of strong men without dying in one hit..."
"Are you here for that Mr. Gu?"
He Caiyun immediately thought of Gu Qing.
At this time, two days have passed since the eradication of evil ghosts.
But He Caiyun would still think of Mr. Gu all the time.
"I have sent people to check before. This old Taoist Gu Qing is probably the old Taoist Gu Yunqing who was sucked dry by Xu Su!"
"As the saying goes, if there is no destruction, there will be no establishment. After destruction, there will be establishment. This is nothing more than this."
"The old Taoist Gu Yunqing has been cultivating the true qi for decades, but he has never been able to comprehend the true form talisman. This time, Xu Su sucked all his true qi away. Instead, he was a blessing in disguise. He successfully understood the true form talisman and restored his true qi to a level in a short time. His level is not low, he is really a strange person..."
"Senior Brother Ku, you will go to the east of the city in the next few days to see if Tu Liang can kill Gu Laodao... If Gu Laodao dies, senior brother can protect those two little babies if he wants to."
"Good." After hearing what He Caiyun said, the thirty-year-old man with a scar on his face clasped his hands together and responded.
…
Two big suns were in the sky, and the hot sunlight shone in all directions.
Heyang City, east of the city.
In the courtyard that had been tidied up and all the weeds pulled out, the little girl Gu Xinghe, Gu Yue, was standing under the eaves.
The two looked at Gu Qing sitting in the yard under the scorching sun.
Gu Qing still had that old look with a ravaged face, but he no longer wore the blue robe, but instead put on loose linen clothes.
Sitting under the scorching sun, under the direct sunlight of the red light, Gu Qing's whole body seemed to have a thin red glow flowing around him.
This thin red light converged inward in strands, and continued to sink into Gu's green withered tree bark-like body, making his face turn red, and even his originally thin and tall figure seemed to have swelled a little, which was rare. Even so, not even a drop of sweat broke out on his body surface.
Seeing their master swelling like a puff of air, gradually resembling a cooked river shrimp, the two little ones enjoying the cool air under the eaves were a little worried.
"Senior brother, master will not be cooked, right?" Gu Yue said worriedly. She looked at her master's 'miserable' condition under the scorching sun, and felt that the favorite pastries in her hands had become less fragrant.
Before Gu Xing could respond, she continued: "Xiao Yueyue doesn't want to be exposed to the sun in the future... Wuwu... Senior brother, Xiao Yueyue doesn't want to practice anymore..."
"What do you know? Master is practicing a profound... profound secret technique." Gu Xing frowned.
"But...but, uh, what is 'Mifa'?" Gu Yue took a bite of the pastry and asked the senior brother next to her playfully.
Gu Xing's face turned a little dark.
He looked at Gu Yue carefully for a few times and responded angrily: "I said it's a secret method! A secret method! It's a secret method! Why do you talk so much, little girl? Have you memorized all the acupuncture points I taught you yesterday?"
If it weren't for Gu Yue's innocent and charming appearance, Gu Xing would have suspected that this junior sister was not as innocent as she seemed and was just teasing him.
"I didn't remember everything... shouldn't I take a break... Bad senior brother... so bad..." Gu Yue looked unhappy, pouted, ran to the side and squatted down, ignoring her senior brother.
Gu Xing's head was full of black lines and he sighed helplessly.
Where has the hard-working little bee-like follower gone? Sure enough, Master was right as he said before, only poverty can raise one's ambition...
Thinking about this, Gu Xing shook his head.
'Although what Master said in the past was reasonable, it is better now... Well, after Master teaches me the practice method, I will also open a true form museum. Hehe, it will be majestic and respected by thousands of people! '
Gu Xing was just thinking about the days when he would be respected by others, while watching his master being exposed to the scorching sun.
The little girl Gu Yue was eating cakes when she found a nest of small ants under the eaves nearby. Her attention was immediately drawn away. She got a wooden stick from somewhere and started playing with it.
Gu Qing, who was exposed to the scorching sun, felt unspeakably miserable.
When he was practicing last night, he relied on his growing true energy and the power of his soul that seemed to have recovered as the true energy grew stronger, forcibly closing the pores all over his body, greatly increasing the efficiency of his training.
Last night's practice was worth the usual three days and nights of practice!
So he had a sudden idea today and tried to seal his pores under the scorching sun, and then practiced visualization.
However, moonlight and sunlight are different after all.
Maybe the huge bright moon hanging in the sky at night made Gu Qing despise it. During the day, the two suns looked much smaller than the bright moon.
It is really stupid to close the pores all over your body under the hot sun!
The exposure of the scorching sun gave birth to a scorching ambition containing fire poison in his body, and more and more scorching aura had nowhere to dissipate, so it could only steam endlessly in his body, scurrying around, but he He didn't dare to let this scorching energy escape from the seven orifices, otherwise he would be afraid that the seven orifices would bleed on the spot, and he would be seriously injured even if he didn't die.
What's even more terrible is that the zhenqi in his body is also enveloped by the steaming heat. This hot gas contains fire poison. Although the quality is far inferior to his zhenqi, the quantity is completely overwhelming, making his zhenqi incorrigible. He retreated and became a prisoner of this scorching gas!
Once this burning energy is allowed to escape from the body.
It’s not certain whether he will die or not, but he will definitely lose all his power!
At the moment, there seems to be only one choice left in front of Gu Qing, which is to wait for night to fall. Once night falls, the burning energy in his body will calm down on its own, and he will be freed.
But things in the world are often not in line with people's wishes.
When the two great suns accompanying each other in the sky tilted slightly to the west, Gu Qing felt some hope in his heart.
Boom...boom...boom...
Heavy footsteps sounded from outside the courtyard.
Not long after, the gate of the courtyard was pushed open by a brute force, and it fell apart with several clicks. Then, a figure about ten feet tall lowered his head and got through the 'short' door frame.
Tu Liang walked into the courtyard and glanced at the seven- or eight-year-old girl sleeping under the eaves, and the young man next to the seven- or eight-year-old girl who was staring at him with a look of wariness and fear. .
Finally, Tu Liang's somewhat strange gaze fell on the old figure sitting cross-legged in the middle of the courtyard, his skin and flesh already turning red.
"You are so bold as a seasoned person. It is really rare to see someone who cultivates the body like this." Tu Liang said in a strange tone.
He stuck the heavy sword on his shoulder on the ground and squatted down. His only remaining eye held a sarcastic smile as he looked up and down at the old man in front of him: "If I kill you now, you might I still feel relieved, but you have offended Senior Brother Xu, how can I relieve you?"
"Okay, we can only start with these two little babies."
"Actually, I don't want to do something so extreme, but I have no choice... Wait until I break these two little dolls into human pigeons and use them to crush you to death." Tu Liang's terrifying figure stood up, looking like a demon Smiling at the young man under the eaves, "Soon, soon, soon he will die..."
The young man, Gu Xing, was so frightened that he almost peed. He picked up Gu Yue with one hand and ran quickly towards the house.
"Hey, little mouse, do you think you can escape..." Tu Liang's huge figure stomped on the ground, and a footprint that exploded in all directions appeared on the ground, and the floor tiles in the footprint were shattered.
A gust of howling wind blew by, and Tu Liang was already chasing towards the house. His huge body actually crashed directly into the house!
boom!
A human-shaped gap appeared on the house.
Tu Liang seemed to be flying close to the ground, showing a speed that was not commensurate with his body size. He came to the house, grabbed Gu Xing's calf, and turned Gu Xing, who was holding Gu Yue, upside down. His hands were as generous as door panels. , seemed to be just grabbing a small grass stem, the two rows of salivating teeth were rubbing slightly, and one eye was rolling.
Tu Liang glanced behind him.
"You're just killing a few people, you won't be so lenient, right? Ascetic, is it possible that since people from your Bodhi Temple are in Heyang City, Heyang City can't kill people?"
Tu Liang's peripheral vision focused on a figure with a scarred face.
I saw this figure with a bald head and a yellow robe, and a look of sorrow on his face. He was the man He Caiyun called 'Senior Brother Ku'!
Ascetic put his hands together, closed his eyes and said, "Yes."
This response was so brief that Tu Liang's face twitched.
But he couldn't say anything questioning.
Bodhi Temple and Baijian Mountain are two pieces of sky in Dingzhou.
In Heyang City, if the people of Bodhi Temple don't let him kill, he can't kill. Otherwise, he won't give Bodhi Temple face. If it gets too big, the people at Baijian Mountain will even expel him directly from the gate!
"Okay, I won't kill these two little babies." Tu Liang put down Gu Xing and Gu Yue in his hands, turned around and walked towards the courtyard.
"Do you care about that old man?"
Tu Liang's eyes were fierce and he asked Xi Xing.
"No matter." Ascetic's response was still brief.
"Ha, that's good." Tu Liang seemed to smile, and his huge body slowly moved back to the courtyard. He stood in front of Gu Qing, who was still sitting cross-legged in the courtyard and could not move, and pulled out the heavy sword.
Tu Liang had lost interest.
He planned to beat the old man to death and cut off his head.
In fact, if he had to go back to Jianshan with anger to recover his life, Tu Liang, who was so exhausted, would even want to smash this old man to death with a sword and crush him into a pile of minced meat!
"Master, Master, just be our master, please save our master..." Gu Xing also recovered from his fear at this time. He looked at the scene in the courtyard, trembling all over, and hugged He pulled his legs off his ascetic legs and started begging with tears streaming down his face.
Ascetic prayed to the young man with his eyes closed, indifferent.
After all this trouble, Gu Yue was also awakened.
She rubbed her eyes and walked through the big hole that Tu Liang had made in the house in a daze. She looked at her senior brother Gu Xing blankly and found that her senior brother was holding a big monk's leg and dangling around.
"Dreaming..."
The little girl Gu Yue had a pure mind and thought she was in a dream. When she came under the eaves, she saw her master still sitting under the scorching sun. However, in front of her master, there was a guy who was as ugly as a ghost.
"It's almost dried out after being exposed to the sun for so long. Xiao Yueyue doesn't want to practice such a broken method... This man is so ugly. Why has Xiao Yueyue never seen him before..."
Gu Yue murmured to herself and walked towards her master.
It was a dream anyway, she wanted to feel how hot her master was.
…
"Having you die in front of my little disciple is torture enough, yes." Tu Liang looked at Gu Yue who was walking over, thought of something, his eyes lit up, then he raised his arm and swung the heavy sword.
The heavy sword has no edge, like a black cloud coming over it.
In an instant, the heavy sword was close to the skin of Gu Qing's neck. It carried the heat generated by cutting through the air, setting off a strong wind, as if it was going to cut off Gu Qing's neck in the next moment!
But at this moment, Gu Qing's figure suddenly dwarfed, and he half-lyed down, narrowly dodging the sword!
Gu Qing's eyes rolled, as if blood was about to spurt out. The reason why he was able to dodge the sword was because his figure started to move the moment Tu Liang drew his sword, but this... It also caused the burning energy in his body to be unbearable anymore!
'Either your body explodes or you bleed to death...'
'Are these two the only results? Although the power of the soul seems to have recovered somewhat, it is still unable to use divine will...'
Gu Qing's thoughts changed in a ten thousandth of a second, but it happened that because of his half-lying position, he saw Gu Yue walking towards him with a confused face.
'This little girl is still smiling...'
A wry smile appeared in his heart.
But immediately, his eyes were fixed on the innocent little girl Gu Yue, and the two sun wheels behind Gu Yue that were about to fall.
At the same moment, the feeling of an explosive body that was about to be destroyed reached its peak. The three of them combined. At the critical moment of life and death, an indescribable feeling seemed to strike his heart like a divine thunder falling out of thin air.
