Both of them recognized each other, especially He Qiaocong, who hated Gu Shengchao deeply.
That night on the boat in Luoxian Lake Tower in the capital, a fire burned the boat. He Qiaocong did not dare to show his face for fear of being shot by heavy soldiers outside.
She sneaked into the bottom of the cabin despite the fire, hid under the wreckage of the ship and floated on the lake. At night, people thought it was just a broken wooden board and did not check it, so she escaped the disaster.
The original culprit was right in front of her, how could she not be filled with righteous indignation.
Kuang Qing hugged the child and ran away. He Qiaocong poured all his resentment on Gu Shengchao, flying a pair of scimitars up and down, trying to kill him here.
Although the Ancient Sage's super aura was blocked and unable to use the Five Soul Formation, the Feng Wu sword skill in his left hand was exquisite and completely withstood the opponent's fierce attack.
He knew that the opponent's scimitar moves were derived from the Feng Wu Qiu Huang sword technique, and he carefully studied it, paying attention to the special features of He Qiaocong's sword technique.
The two fought for dozens more rounds, and Gu Shengchao noticed that although her sword skills were fierce, they lacked the elegance and agility of Feng Wu Qiu Huang's sword skills.
The swordsmanship of the Shuangjianmen disciples encountered in Xileng Kingdom was not as fierce as He Qiaocong's swordsmanship, but one could still feel the freedom and ease.
The Double Sword Sect and the Dark Moon Hall have the same origin, but the effects they present are completely different. One sword technique is both offensive and defensive, and the other sword technique is ruthless in attacking the strong and defending the weak.
He Qiaocong couldn't defeat Gu Shengchao and was anxious. She suddenly changed her moves, took a step back and swung the blade forward.
The scimitar is short, so you can rely on close combat, and even if you step back, you can't detect it.
Gu Shengchao saw the blade rushing toward him, one turned into two, two turned into four, four turned into eight...
The shadows of numerous knives came overwhelmingly.
The ancient sage waved his sword to block, but the shadow of the sword actually made no false move.
"Dang, Dang, Dang..."
After struggling to stop the shadow of the knife, he was about to take a breath. In the shadow of the knife that was about to dissipate, two scimitars appeared out of thin air and pierced his chest.
The ancient sage was so horrified that the two scimitars appeared silently, as if they were already there.
The scimitar appeared at just the right time, just before the ancient sage's super sword could be lifted up and retracted.
The only thing that can be done is to retreat quickly.
Gu Shengchao stepped back. The two scimitars were like maggots attached to bones, staying two inches away from his chest, threatening his life at any time.
Life and death are in an instant, and it takes time to condense the iron arm magical power into armor, so there is no time at all.
The two scimitars were getting closer and closer, and I could already feel the chill brought by the blades on my chest.
The only thing that Gu Shengchao could do while retreating was to sweep the tip of his sword back.
Although this method cannot knock the scimitar away, it can change the position of the blade in the shortest time and avoid the risk of disembowelment.
The ancient sage's meridians were blocked and his internal strength was not as good as his opponent's. He used his sword to block the scimitar. It should be no problem to block one scimitar, but the other scimitar would probably pierce the vital part of his chest.
Just as he expected, the two scimitars changed direction, and the handles hit the vital points on his chest firmly.
"Bang!"
Gu Shengchao felt a sharp pain in his chest and flew backwards and fell heavily.
It rolled several times in the yard before it finally stopped.
He Qiaocong stretched out her hand, and the two scimitars returned to her palms, and she found the right moment to prepare for the next attack.
Gu Shengchao fell dizzy, but fortunately he held the sword in his left hand firmly and did not throw it away.
He was afraid of a sneak attack by the opponent, so he couldn't help but protect his body with his iron arm magic.
Strangely enough, the meridians that were originally sluggish were suddenly dredged up, and a layer of faint silvery armor immediately formed on the surface of the skin.
This is?
The ancient sage was surprised.
In the past two days, he had tried his best to form a thin layer of iron armor, but now he had condensed silver armor in an instant, which was even more advanced than before.
He had a little luck, and the true energy surged in the meridians in his body, and in an instant, it had traveled for a week and returned to the Dantian.
What just happened?
He couldn't believe it.
He Qiaocong had strong inner strength, and the handle of her scimitar accidentally helped Gu Shengchao unblock his meridians, which actually helped him a lot.
Gu Shengchao's surprised expression made He Qiaocong very unhappy.
Under the pressure of her scimitar, it was normal to feel uneasy and panicked. Such an expression seemed to mean that he didn't care about her at all and regarded her as an outsider.
"go to hell!"
He Qiaocong opened his hands and whirled his two scimitars, slashing at Gu Shengchao, who was still in a state of surprise.
The "Iron Arm Magic" can give people a perfect layer of protective armor, but the side effects are also obvious, that is, the perception of the outside world is significantly reduced.
By the time Gu Shengchao discovered the scimitar, it was already close at hand.
Without thinking, he reached out to grab it.
He Qiaocong was overjoyed. He was not the only one who did this, but those people were either missing fingers or had their entire hands broken.
She guided the scimitar, and the speed of rotation was even more amazing, making a "buzzing" sound.
Gu Shengchao didn't care at all. The sword wanted to be taken back into his body, but it was blocked by the silver armor. He simply dropped the sword and stretched out his hands to grab it.
"Ka-ka!"
The bloody situation that He Qiaocong expected did not happen, and the two scimitars were grabbed by Gu Shengchao.
And they are all held on the edge of a knife.
He Qiaocong was not panicked, she was convinced of her own strength.
She continued to guide the scimitar, believing that she would be able to cut off all ten of Gu Shengchao's fingers.
"Stab it, sting it..."
The scimitar slowly slipped out from Gu Shengchao's fingers, making an annoying and annoying sound like metal friction.
Gu Shengchao sneered, holding it hard with both hands, and the scimitar could no longer move.
The two competed with each other in terms of internal strength, but Gu Shengchao was the winner. The blade of the scimitar gradually twisted and deformed under his brute force, kneading it into a pile of scrap metal.
"Give it back to you." Gu Shengchao threw two balls of iron lumps towards He Qiaocong.
He picked up the sword on the ground and ran towards the other party.
Only then did He Qiaocong feel scared. In this world, apart from the master and master of the Dark Moon Hall, Gu Shengchao was the third person who scared her.
The second one is Lu Chuan.
Lu Chuan had only met her a few times.
They hadn't fought each other a few times before, but Lu Chuan's confidence, ease, and invisible pressure made her fearful.
Especially when secretly tracking Lu Chuan, his wife and Wan Ruo, the sword thrown by Lu Chuan could clearly be avoided.
But someone seemed to be holding her throat tightly. Seeing a strand of her long hair being cut off, she felt a moment of helplessness and despair that she would never forget.
Looking at Gu Shengchao running towards him, He Qiaocong gave up the idea of revenge tonight.
If you can't fight, run and wait for the next opportunity.
This is the consistent purpose of Dark Moon Hall, and it is also the foundation for them to settle down in the world.
Brainless and reckless actions will only make you sink deeper and deeper.
He Qiaocong threw more than ten flying knives to block him, turned around and ran away, disappearing into the night.
Putting all the scimitars in his palms, Gu Shengchao shook his head helplessly.
Tonight's harvest was unexpected. It unexpectedly solved the problem of blocked meridians. It was a surprise among surprises.
Gu Shengchao turned around and saw that Cao Yuanwai was lying dead in a pool of blood. Magistrate Hu was leaning against the corner tremblingly and not daring to move.
"This brave man, our county government is short of manpower. Are you interested in coming to the county government to work? The remuneration can be discussed." Magistrate Hu said politely.
After withdrawing the Iron Arm Magic and letting his senses return, He Qiaocong hid in the dark. No one knew whether she would suddenly attack.
Gu Shengchao threw away the scimitar in his hand and put the sword back into the Dantian of his body.
"I'm only interested in A Niu, nothing else." Gu Shengchao spoke straightforwardly.
Magistrate Hu was startled: "Oh? Does it mean that the strong man knows A Niu? As long as he is willing to help me, I can release him tonight."
"No need." Gu Shengchao waved his hand and said: "A Niu and I are not familiar with each other. I just happened to overhear the conversation between you and Mr. Cao outside the house. A Niu has an old mother who needs support at home. I hope Mr. Hu can take care of it properly." solve."
"Who are you?" Magistrate Hu became alert.
"I'm just passing by. I won't disturb Mr. Hu's bright future."
After he finished speaking, he left and met Dong E running in holding Wan Yanxi's hand at the door.
"You fools, why are you here?" Ancient Sage said displeased.
Seeing that her step-brother was angry, Dong E pouted aggrievedly and said, "We didn't come back when we saw you, so we came here because we were worried about you. It's better for you. You'll know how to treat me as soon as we meet. I don't care about you anymore."
Gu Shengchao shook his head helplessly, and quickly grabbed her sleeves and said: "Okay, it's me who is the elder brother who is wrong. It's so late at night, I'm worried about you too."
Dong E smiled: "That's pretty much it."
She looked at the corpses and damaged coffins on the ground, the spiritual flags swaying in the night sky, and said uneasily: "Let's go back, it's scary here."
The three of them returned to the inn, where Lu Shouwen was already waiting.
"You guys, are you causing trouble outside again? We need to keep a low profile on this trip, but you just don't listen." Lu Shouwen must have known something. Dong E must have been too talkative and accidentally revealed it.
Gu Shengchao briefly recounted what happened that night and asked, "Do you think I would care or not if I encountered such an outrageous act?"
After blurting out, Lu Shouwen nodded and said: "Take care, of course we have to take care of it. The dignified county magistrate is looking down on human life. We don't care who will make the decision for the people. We will stay here for the time being. I want to see if that A Niu will do it in three days." Ask Zhan.”
Early the next morning, drums and music were blaring and people were shouting outside the inn. Someone organized people to line up along the street to welcome the envoys.
It seemed that there really was no airtight wall. In just one night, Magistrate Hu had already found out their identities.
Lu Shouwen dressed up and came outside. Magistrate Hu was the first to salute: "Welcome to the envoy, the adults have worked tirelessly to come to our county and make our county shine. The people are also very happy. Please come to our county office." Sit down and let us enjoy the joy of the adults in the mission."
"Flattery."
Lu Shouwen thought in his heart, but he still showed mercy to them: "Master Hu, you are too polite. We have official business, so we should go to the county government office to sit down. Please lead the way, Master Hu."
"Adults please."
Magistrate Hu prepared many sedan chairs, carried the envoys and deputy envoys of the mission, and swaggered to the county government office amid the cheers of the people along the street.
