After listening to Zhou Hualiang's explanation, Gu Shengchao felt that their scholars were too pedantic and enlightened: "Instead of getting fame, why not start a small business or return to your hometown to farm? It is better than fighting and killing in the sect and worrying about it." Hundreds of times."
After hearing this, Zhou Hualiang sneered and said sarcastically: "You only know how to survive and are willing to give up your waist for five buckets of rice. We, ordinary people, have no retreat, so why don't we think of ways to change our lives to fight for a chance of survival for ourselves? We are like ants, but we are like swans. With ambitions and life as thin as paper, you should have an unyielding heart. Even if your hands are not strong enough to tie a chicken, your life will not be in vain if you fight with your life."
Staring at Gu Shengchao's eyes widened in shock, Zhou Hualiang's eyes were filled with longing for the future, and he asked back, "What do you think?"
Gu Shengchao originally planned to enlighten him, but when he said this, he didn't know what to say and was completely shocked by his words.
Zhou Hualiang saw Gu Shengchao's shock and said slowly: "Although it is precarious for us to join the Tianqing Gang, there is always a lot to look forward to in the future, and there are countless hopes and possibilities. If we just live a life of drunkenness and dreaming, living as if we are dead, then we might as well fight. Give it a try, at least your destiny is in your own hands and you don't have to look at other people's faces. Life is short, why not live it vigorously?"
A scholar is a scholar. Just a few words left Gu Shengchao speechless and speechless.
Seeing that Gu Shengchao had no way to argue, Zhou Hualiang started to act even more wantonly: "I think brother, you have good skills, so why not join our Tianqing Gang? With my introduction, I guarantee that you will get what you want. We, Tianqing The purpose of helping is to make the working people all over the world celebrate together, and to fight against injustices for the poor and to protect them from the oppression of the wealthy gentry. You help others and improve yourself, so why not do it?"
Hearing this, Gu Shengchao finally found the loophole in his words and smiled disdainfully: "What a celebration. We just wanted to have a meal and drink some wine, but you burned down the restaurant and tried to catch us all."
He pointed at fellow villagers Zhuang Lutao behind him and asked: "These unarmed villagers have no grievances against you, why should you harm them? And that restaurant, how many people rely on it to make a living, you burn it down and let others Years of hard work have gone into nothing, and you still have no conscience. Is your universal celebration just to benefit yourself at the expense of others? If so, don't do it."
Gu Shengchao spoke sonorously and forcefully, but Zhou Hualiang shook his head and said unhurriedly: "Brother, what you said is wrong. You are not them. How could you know that they are sad? Those poor people you think are not in love with themselves." Overcome the tribulation and purify your soul."
"That's nonsense." Ancient Sage Chao held the sword in his hand and slashed straight towards Zhou Hualiang's neck.
I originally thought that he would be scared and dodge, but unexpectedly, he remained motionless as if nothing had happened, staring straight at Gu Shengchao, as if everything in front of him had nothing to do with him.
"Aren't you afraid of death?" The ancient sage was puzzled.
Zhou Hualiang said truthfully: "I am also a mortal, and I am actually scared to death."
"Then why don't you hide?" Gu Shengchao asked.
Zhou Hualiang smiled lightly and said: "Since you can't hide, why hide? Just like all things in this world, there is no distinction between good and evil, beauty and ugliness are difficult to distinguish. If you are always confined to your own small size, how will you know? The cause and effect behind everything.”
He looked at Gu Shengchao and saw that he was reluctant to make a move, so he straightened his neck and sent it forward: "If you kill me, you can get what you want. I am willing to kill you at your neck."
Seeing that he was not afraid of death, Gu Shengchao refused to let go of his hand and took two steps back to let him go.
"You go, I won't embarrass you." Gu Shengchao lowered his sword, feeling tired as never before.
"Thank you!" Zhou Hualiang thanked Gu Shengchao and walked away.
"Wait a minute," someone shouted.
They turned to watch, and Shui Linglong had fully recovered, holding a sword in her hand and walking towards her with murderous intent.
"Here, what's so valuable about this girl?" Zhou Hualiang pretended to be calm, but in fact he was frightened and his words were a little awkward.
Shui Linglong snorted coldly: "Don't use sweet words. I came all the way from Yunshang City and saw you in many Tianqing Gang gatherings. You must be a heinous person. I will kill you to eliminate harm to the people." "
After hearing what Shui Linglong said, the ancient sage suddenly had an idea, stopped Shui Linglong who was coming to kill him and said, "Wait a minute, what this person said is true, we can't kill him."
"The Tianqing Gang is best at deceiving people. Don't let them fool you." Shui Linglong thought that Gu Shengchao had listened to Zhou Hualiang's words and was extremely anxious.
Gu Shengchao turned his back to Zhou Hualiang, blinked quickly at Shui Linglong, and stabbed her with his sword while she was stunned.
The sword blade passed through Shui Linglong's armpit.
Standing behind Gu Shengchao, it was as if he had pierced Shui Linglong's chest with his sword.
Shui Linglong didn't expect that Ancient Saint Chao would launch a sudden attack. She said "Ah" inadvertently. When she saw the sword passing by, her voice suddenly stopped and she stared at him with wide eyes in confusion.
"What are you going to do?" Shui Linglong asked in shock.
The ancient sage smiled ferociously, loud enough for Zhou Hualiang behind him to hear clearly. He winked exaggeratedly at Shui Linglong, hoping to make the other party understand his intentions.
The incident happened suddenly. Shui Linglong didn't understand Gu Shengchao's thoughts at all, but when she saw his strange expression, she knew that he was performing for Zhou Hualiang behind him.
It’s acting anyway, so let’s make it more realistic.
Shui Linglong screamed "Ah" and pretended to be frightened: "You, you want to kill me?"
Gu Shengchao laughed wildly: "You have ruined my good deeds over and over again, how can I tolerate you?"
He raised his foot and kicked Shui Linglong.
Shui Linglong responded accordingly. When the upper part of Gu Shengchao's shoes touched her, she jumped back and pretended to fall heavily. After struggling for a few times, she didn't move.
Zhuang Lutao and his fellow villagers were frightened when they saw this scene. After all, they were all rescued by Shui Linglong. The elder among them wanted to check Shui Linglong's injuries, but when he saw the ancient sage's sharp eyes sweeping over him, he was stunned and stood there without daring to move.
This kind of fear, uneasiness, panic, and anger mixed with expressions cannot be faked.
Zhou Hualiang saw this and further confirmed that Gu Shengchao betrayed his own people.
With just his sharp tongue, he successfully betrayed a general of the opponent, and he couldn't help but feel happy.
Gu Shengchao put away his sword and turned around, came to Zhou Hualiang, cupped his hands and said: "It's not easy to stay here for a long time, let's go."
Zhou Hualiang was also afraid that something might change later and something unfavorable to him might happen, so he hurried away with Gu Shengchao.
When the two of them arrived outside Huaming City, Gu Shengchao stopped and said politely: "The military advisor stayed here. I just got so obsessed with planting poisonous insects on the military advisor that I can get rid of it now."
"That's perfect." Zhou Hualiang didn't want a poisonous snake lurking in his body to threaten his life at any time.
The two of them sat down cross-legged facing each other. Gu Shengchao injected a little bit of Qi into the other person, pinched a few points on his body, pressed along the meridians with internal force, and finally slapped his Shenque point with his palm.
Zhou Hualiang's stomach was turbulent, his lower abdomen contracted back and forth several times, he opened his mouth to retching, and the poisonous snake wrapped in Xuan Qi spit out from his mouth.
Although the poisonous snake was wrapped in mysterious energy, it could still squirm back and forth, making Zhou Hua's conscience frightened and he did not dare to touch it.
In addition to the mysterious energy, the surface of the snake Gu was also covered with Zhou Hualiang's gastric juice. Gu Shengchao picked up a branch and lifted the snake aside.
Without the human body, the mysterious energy will naturally dissipate quickly, and the poisonous snake can find caves to hibernate on its own to spend the long and cold winter.
Taking out the two red and white porcelain bottles from his arms, Gu Shengchao apologized: "This belongs to the original owner. I didn't know about it at the time. Please forgive me, military advisor."
Zhou Hualiang took it calmly and said with a slight smile: "If you don't fight, you won't get to know each other. It's understandable that each of us acted for his own master at that time."
"I, Gu Shengchao, am willing to follow the military advisor from now on and achieve great success." Gu Shengchao bowed deeply to apologize for his recklessness at that time.
Zhou Hualiang grabbed his hand: "We will be brothers from now on, you don't have to be polite."
The two chatted and laughed as they walked along the forest path. Gu Shengchao didn't ask, he just followed.
At dusk, the two came to a small village.
Looking at it, there are only about 20 households. Most of the houses are made of rammed earth and covered with thatch, which shows that this place is not wealthy.
Someone saw Zhou Hualiang and took the initiative to salute: "The military advisor is back, please come inside quickly. We are discussing how to rescue the military advisor."
Gu Shengchao followed them, and suddenly felt someone rushing towards him from behind, with a threatening sword aura.
This feeling, it should be the guy who wields the ghost-headed sword.
The ancient sage instantly used his "Iron Arm Magic" to protect his body, and a layer of light silver armor condensed on the surface of his skin.
At this moment, it is difficult to convince the public without showing some real skills. You must exceed the other party's expectations and make them feel like they have gained a treasure in order to gain trust and gain a foothold.
Although the "Iron Arm Magic" is good, its only drawback is that it is blocked in perception and cannot accurately judge what is happening in places that are out of sight.
Gu Shengchao hurriedly turned around, and the ghost-headed sword had already struck in front of him. The distance was too close, and the blade looked extremely huge.
"Well done."
With a loud shout, Gu Shengchao crossed his arms and raised his arms, and used his arms to forcefully receive the move.
"Bang!"
The blade collided with the silver armor, making a clanging sound and flashing a dazzling spark.
The man thought that he would cut Gu Sheng Chao in two, but he didn't expect that the sword would actually bounce up. The opponent had the skill of an iron cloth shirt and a golden bell cover.
In surprise, Gu Shengchao punched him with both fists, and the man blocked it with his sword.
Gu Shengchao hit the sword with both fists, and the ghost-headed sword trembled and buzzed.
The man was so shocked that his mouth was numb, and he could no longer hold the sword and had to let go.
Gu Shengchao took the opportunity to grab the sword and threw it aside.
The man was horrified. His long-famous swordsmanship was broken in just a few moves, so how could he resist him?
While he was in a trance, Gu Shengchao stepped forward, grabbed the man's clothes, and lifted him high as if to throw him down.
"Stop, we are all our own people, don't hurt your harmony."
It was only at this moment that Zhou Hualiang finally spoke to dissuade him.
