The head of the Night Ghost Sect, Huang Buhuo, escaped in panic. He came here only to use the unique medicinal materials here to refine the "Half-step Shengtian Pill". If the incident is revealed, it will probably never happen again.
Gu Shengchao came to the dead disciple and told Lu Jin to stay away, lest the sudden explosion of the poison pill would hurt her.
He didn't dare to put himself in danger this time, so he took a deep breath, held his breath, and groped in the disciple's arms.
In the end, I only found the poison pill and nothing else.
This person is probably just an ordinary disciple, and is not qualified to equip various poisons and antidotes.
Holding the poison pill in his palm, Gu Shengchao wondered how to use it and why Yeguimen could control the timing of the explosion at will.
But this doesn't bother him.
Although I don't know how to use Night Ghost Gate, Gu Shengchao has his own tricks.
Just like planting a bug, a thin layer of true energy is first condensed on the surface of the poison pill, and then thrown out with force, causing the true energy to shrink suddenly and compress the poison pill.
"Bang!"
The poison pill exploded in the distance, sending up thick pink dust.
Seeing the thick fog approaching towards him, Gu Shengchao shouted "no", turned around, pulled Lu Jin and ran to the side.
Seeing the thick smoke slowly drifting into the distance, gradually dispersing and disappearing in the wind, Gu Shengchao took a long breath and rejoiced: "What a risk, just now the poison pill actually exploded at the top, almost poisoning himself. "
Lu Jin smiled and said, "Isn't it better to keep the poison pill? There is no need to take risks."
Gu Shengchao shook his head and said: "It is even more dangerous to keep it. If it explodes while you are sleeping, wouldn't you lose your life in a daze?"
Lu Jin stuck out his tongue playfully: "Yes, it's a good blast. We won't need it anyway."
It was still early, so Gu Shengchao invited: "Let's go, first go to my old house and see what it's like?"
Lu Jin accompanied Gu Shengchao to the front door. The word "Gufu" on the plaque on the door was brand new and shiny, which was very inconsistent with the simple door.
Gu Shengchao knew that it was his cousin Gu Shenglong who occupied this place and replaced it. Unfortunately, he was not lucky enough to enjoy it. His whole family was killed by Huang Buhuo and he used this place as a place to refine poison.
The door lock on the door was corroded. Gu Shengchao reached out and twisted it hard, and the door lock fell off. He was about to push the door in when the sound of a bell came from behind the door.
Gu Shengchao hesitated for a moment and then opened the door.
"Creak."
The heavy door opened with a sound, and a figure rushed towards him.
Ancient Sage Chao was on guard early, and grabbed the hair on the back of its neck with his right hand in time, and threw it away.
A big yellow dog rolled several times in the grass, stood up and bared its teeth at the ancient saint Chao, barking wildly.
"Let's go, your master has escaped, hurry up and chase him!" Gu Shengchao pointed to the distance not wanting to harm Gouzi's life.
The big yellow dog looked in the direction of Gu Shengchao's finger, hesitated for a moment, and then ran wildly in that direction.
The two walked into the courtyard side by side. The first entrance was to the martial arts training ground and the reception room, and the second entrance was to the spacious lobby in the middle. It was here that Gu Shengchao killed his enemy Zhao Yinhu.
There were many casseroles and earthen pots set up in the lobby at this moment, and the strong smell of medicinal herbs was pungent. It seemed that they were refining poisons here.
Going around to the back is the third courtyard, with a garden in the middle and a two-story building at the back used as a bedroom.
Gu Shengchao first came to a room downstairs and refused to leave for a long time. Lu Jin was curious about why he missed the empty room.
"What's wrong, Brother Gu? Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Lu Jin was puzzled.
Gu Shengchao shook his head sadly: "I'm fine. I've lived in this house since I can remember. I just recalled the beautiful memories of my childhood."
After reluctantly walking out, Gu Shengchao led Lu Jin upstairs to the room where they were detained last night.
"This is the dormitory where my parents used to live. I remember that the secret room was empty. I often hid in it and played hide-and-seek. It must have been that after Zhao Yinhu killed my parents, he hid all the gold, silver and jewelry he had collected. After death, no one will know about the others." Gu Shengchao guessed.
But he only guessed half of it right, he just knew the secret
The others later all died violently, and all the treasures were left to him by accident.
Behind the small building is a small vegetable garden, which is now completely deserted and overgrown with weeds.
Back in front of the small building, Gu Shengchao was so hurt that he could no longer hold on. He knelt down and cried bitterly: "Father, mother, the child is unfilial and has come back late."
Lu Jin missed her parents who were far away in the boat gang. She couldn't help but shed tears and stood aside crying.
Not long after, several people raised their hoes and sickles and cautiously walked into the yard to check. The leader was the old man from the inn.
"You two, why are you crying here? Aren't you afraid of disturbing the ghosts?" A villager whispered, looking around from time to time, for fear that something would rush out of the room and hurt them.
Gu Shengchao suppressed his tears, wiped them away and said: "The evil ghosts are also human beings. They have been driven away by us. There will be no more ghosts here."
"Did you kill that person outside too?" another person asked.
Gu Shengchao nodded: "Exactly, please bury that man, and the town will be at peace from now on."
Several villagers looked at each other, discussed in low voices and retreated.
Seeing them leaving, Gu Shengchao stood up and said guiltily: "I made my sister laugh, and I made you cry with me."
Lu Jin said with red eyes, "I don't know what's wrong, I just want to cry."
"Let's go upstairs and take a rest."
There were tables and chairs upstairs. Gu Shengchao and Lu Jin sat down, both silent and thinking about their own thoughts.
Lu Jin was a little tired and fell asleep.
"This is right here. They killed someone before they could escape. A few of us have been watching outside."
There was a noise outside, and Lu Jin woke up suddenly. He looked up and saw a group of officers and soldiers rushing in.
"What happened?" Lu Jin was in a daze and did not react.
Gu Shengchao sighed and said, "This is a typical example of ingratitude. Back then, everyone was in danger, and everyone was shirk-shitting, and no one dared to step forward and take risks. Now that we have brought peace to the town, they can take credit and be charged with murder." By forcing it on us, it kills two birds with one stone.”
Having seen so much of the cold, warmth and filthiness of the human world, the ancient sage was calm and not angry.
In an instant, the officers and soldiers had already gone upstairs. The leader barged in with a knife, stared at the ancient sage fiercely and said: "There was a murder in the town this morning. You killed the man outside, right?"
"It's me, what's wrong?" Gu Shengchao sat still.
"Oh, what's wrong? Come with me to the Yamen to confess." The man shook the chain and went up to put it around Gu Shengchao's neck.
"Bang!"
Lu Jin punched the man away from the door.
"I didn't use any force?" Lu Jin then realized that with just a light blow, a strong man flew out, which was impossible to do normally.
"Call your county magistrate, I will only talk to him." Gu Shengchao said calmly.
"You want to rebel. Isn't the county magistrate something you, a common man, can meet whenever you want?" The other government officials didn't understand what was going on, and took advantage of the large number of people to pounce on him.
Gu Shengchao did not embarrass them, dodged and threw them downstairs one by one.
"I'll say it again, ask your county magistrate to come and talk." Gu Shengchao stood at the door of the second floor and shouted loudly.
"You wait." Seeing that they could not get any advantage, the officers and soldiers left one after another, not forgetting to say harsh words before leaving.
Lu Jin also found it funny and asked, "Brother Gu, do you think the county magistrate will come?"
"Yes, I'm afraid he only dares to take command outside the town and order these officers and soldiers to attack us with bows and crossbows." Ancient Sage Chaotai knew the inside story.
"What should we do? Are we going to fight the officers and soldiers?" Lu Jin's skills have greatly increased, and he is not afraid of fighting.
Gu Shengchao shook his head: "This is my old house. It cannot be damaged anymore. Let's wait for the county magistrate outside the town."
The two people walked out in a big way. The villagers did not dare to stop them, but followed them from a distance, probably waiting for the opportunity to report to the county government.
Gu Shengchao pretended not to see them and came to enjoy the shade under the trees outside the town.
In less than an hour, a large number of officers and soldiers gathered around a sedan chair carried by four people and rushed to the scene.
Come.
Some villagers ran over from the side to report, pointing towards Gu Shengchao.
Not long after, all the officers and soldiers armed with bows and crossbows surrounded Gu Shengchao and Lu Jin.
Seeing their clumsiness, Gu Shengchao knew that they could not harm Lu Jin, so he sneered and said, "Ask your county magistrate to come forward and lecture him."
"Brothers, shoot them to death if you insist on speaking out even when you are about to die." The man who had been punched downstairs by Lu Jin just now ordered loudly.
From a distance, Gu Shengchao saw the county magistrate's sedan lift up the curtain, and one person stuck his head out to watch. There was only the master accompanying him, and there were four sedan bearers waiting for orders. There were no other officers and soldiers guarding him.
This place is far away from the border and there is no banditry. It seems that the peaceful and comfortable days have made them slack off.
Gu Shengchao jumped up and came to the magistrate's sedan chair.
The county magistrate had never seen such Kungfu before. He was so frightened that he trembled all over and said, "Stop him."
The master was originally a scholar who showed off his pen. The bearer had no strength and no martial arts. How could he stop Gu Shengchao?
He strode forward, grabbed the county magistrate's neck, and pulled him out of the sedan.
The county magistrate was so frightened that his legs and feet became weak and he could not stand firmly. He collapsed on the ground and begged: "Hero, spare your life, I don't dare to do it anymore."
