The fourth prince Xiao Shangzhen's method is indeed effective.
When he persuaded "Bifang" Chu Wei to retreat in an aggressive manner, Chu Wei backed away repeatedly and never dared to ask anything about "Girl Qilin" again.
at the same time.
"Zhulong" Chen Yanping turned around and tried to hold back his laughter.
"Linghu" Shangguan Jin looked at the two people with interest, a meaningful smile on his face.
As for Gu Xu, when he saw the scene in front of him, he recognized the identity of "Qilin".
the reason is simple.
On the one hand, Xiao Shangzhen was the only member of the Daqi royal family present;
On the other hand, although Xiao Shangzhen's expression looked fierce at the moment, a hint of panic could be seen in his eyes.
Gu Xu smiled slightly without revealing it.
In such an occasion, there is no need to offend a Da Qi prince over such a trivial matter.
It's better to stay quietly and watch the excitement.
Of course, it's very difficult for someone like him to keep a low profile.
Even if he stayed in the corner of the room without saying a word.
His unconventional appearance still makes him attract the attention of many people inadvertently.
Especially a "face control" person like Shangguan Jin who appreciates all the beautiful things in the world.
Although Shangguan Jin once used Luo Sishou's bronze mirror to see Gu Xu from a distance in the illusion of "Reviewing the Old Pot".
But at this moment, she couldn't help but sigh that the real boy was obviously much more beautiful than the image in the bronze mirror.
"How about making friends with him?" A thought came to her mind, "The Chief Secretary once said that he possesses a cultivation qualification that is rare in a century, and his future achievements will be extraordinary - if we can form a friendship with him today , it must be an investment that will make you money without losing money."
But... what excuse should I find to talk to him?
Shangguan Jin thought for a moment, then smoothed his hair and walked straight towards Gu Xu's position.
"Friend Zhuque, long time no see," she greeted Gu Xu with a smile, "Last time you used the 'Eight Illusion Formation' to break my 'Meteor Walking on the Moon' in the 'Realm of Discussing the Tao', but... I’m very impressed!”
Hearing her voice, Gu Xu raised his head.
The girl in front of her is tall, with a slender waist, and a small face that is not stunning, but is attractive.
At first glance, people can't help but think - "This is what first love should look like."
"'Fellow Spirit Fox'?" Gu Xu smiled, "Or should I call you 'Sir Shangguan'?"
Don't look at this girl's innocent appearance.
But Gu Xu still clearly remembers that she not only carried out sneak attacks without saying a word in the "Realm of Taoism", but also had the mysterious magical power to calculate the trajectory of his actions.
Only a fool would mistake her for an innocent girl.
For such a role, Gu Xu did not dare to let down his guard.
Hearing Gu Xu's words, Shangguan Jin responded with a smile:
"Now that we have joined the 'Shenji Battalion', we are partners in pursuing the great road and slaying demons. Why bother distinguishing between those boring official titles?
"To be honest, when I saw that my Taoist friend was knowledgeable and knowledgeable, and he had all kinds of knowledge and spells at his fingertips, I thought that the Taoist friend was a dull and boring bookworm - but I didn't expect that he turned out to be a handsome and funny young man. What a surprise!"
"Fellow Taoist Shangguan, thank you for the award." Gu Xu said calmly and calmly.
Praising without missing an opportunity is one of the best ways to win the favor of others.
Gu Xu is very familiar with this routine.
Seeing that Gu Xu had no reaction, Shangguan Jin lowered his head again and continued: "It's just that I haven't fully understood the method of calculating the direction of the stars that fellow Taoist told me last time. I know that I am a little stupid, but fellow Taoist is An expert in this field. If you don’t mind, could you tell me more about it?”
"This is actually easy to understand," Gu Xu replied succinctly, "You should be able to understand if you put the Bagua array diagram and the constellation orientation diagram together and compare them."
He could tell at a glance that Shangguan Jin was "pretending not to understand."
Appropriate displays of weakness, as well as this seemingly trivial request, are also ways to bring two people closer.
Gu Xu is also familiar with this routine.
"But why did she suddenly come to me?" He secretly speculated in his heart, "A fourth-level monk like Lord Shangguan... actually wants something from me?"
Seeing Gu Xu's perfunctory attitude, Shangguan Jin also silently thought to himself: He doesn't seem to be doing this at all... His thoughts really don't look like those of a seventeen-year-old boy.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Shangguan Jin decided to change his strategy.
"Fellow Daoist Gu," she suppressed her smile and said bluntly, "Actually, I came to you today because I hope to walk with you in the Laoshan ruins and deal with the crisis together."
"With me?" Gu Xu showed a look of confusion just right, "Fellow Taoist Shangguan, with my current cultivation level, I'm afraid it will be difficult to help you, right?"
"Fellow Daoist Gu, you may not know," Shangguan Jin lowered his voice and leaned into his ear and said, "Kongxuan Sanren's cave only allows a maximum of three people to enter it... It is impossible for all of us to obtain the inheritance. During this period, we are likely to Fights occurred over inheritance.
"In this process, no matter how strong a person's power is, it is limited after all. But I have paid attention to Gu Daoyou's performance in the 'Wen Guhu' illusion together with the Chief Secretary. I believe that with my cultivation, I can cooperate with Your knowledge and methods will make you invincible in the entire Shenji Camp."
Gu Xu did not respond immediately.
He used his true energy to control the copper coins and quietly performed a divination in his pocket, which confirmed that what Shangguan Jin said was correct - only three people were allowed to enter the cave of Kongxuan Sanren.
As for why she knew such news... Gu Xu didn't ask any more questions. Based on Shangguan Jin's identity, he may actually possess a lot of little-known information.
"This is indeed an exciting proposal!" Gu Xu sighed in his heart.
He knew that there were many third-level and fourth-level monks among his fellow travelers.
Even though he can rely on various means to be invincible in the "realm of discussing Tao".
But in reality, he couldn't guarantee that he would be able to win the inheritance from this group of geniuses from all over the country.
However, if there is a fourth realm monk as a teammate, his chances of winning will undoubtedly be greatly improved.
But his intuition told him that he should keep a distance from this woman who knew all the tricks... Otherwise, if he fell into her hands in the future, he would die without knowing why.
Seeing that Gu Xu remained silent, Shangguan Jin raised the corners of his mouth, put a strand of loose long hair behind his ear, and continued: "I know that fellow Taoist Gu masters a magical 'Invitation to God Curse'... Fellow Taoist Gu is so handsome. , I don’t mind even if I get drained!”
She really knows how to do it.
If it were any other man, he would probably have taken the bait long ago.
Gu Xu secretly complained.
…………
However, at this moment, another person crossed the crowd and squeezed to his side.
It was Chen Yanping, the concubine of the head of the Chen family.
Chen Yanping once received a task from his father, asking him to have a good relationship with Gu Xu.
When he heard "Gu Daoyou" from Shangguan Jin, he immediately recognized that this handsome young man was the Gu Xu he had been looking for.
"May I ask if you are Mr. Gu from Yishui County?" Chen Yanping asked politely.
"It's me," Gu Xu nodded, "You are -"
"I'm Chen Yanping in Xiangyang," Chen Yanping bowed his hands and said, "I've heard of Mr. Gu's reputation for a long time. When I saw him today, he is indeed a talented person."
Since Chen Yanping is currently managing the Chen family's property and has no official position for the time being, he does not dare to neglect the etiquette in order to avoid being criticized.
It turns out they are from the Chen family!
As Gu Xu thought about it, he smiled humbly and said, "Fellow Daoist Chen is so complimentary. In addition, since we are all members of the 'Shenji Camp', let's forget about our official titles and call ourselves 'Fellow Daoist'!"
Shangguan Jin next to him glanced at Chen Yanping lightly.
She had a pleasant chat with Gu Xu just now.
Seeing that she was about to succeed, she persuaded Gu Xu to cooperate with her.
But he was suddenly interrupted by this annoying guy.
How upsetting!
Thinking of this, she secretly put the name "Chen Yanping" on the blacklist.
However, she still had a friendly smile on her face and said to Chen Yanping:
"Dare to ask if Fellow Daoist Chen suddenly came here and wanted to join our conversation?"
Chen Yanping stood next to Gu Xu and said to her bluntly: "I admire Gu Daoyou's reputation and want to make friends with him."
Then he said to Gu Xu: "Fellow Daoist Gu, my father once told me that the Laoshan ruins are full of difficulties and obstacles, and there are restrictions on Kongxuan Sanren's cave. It is impossible for everyone to enter the cave to obtain inheritance.
"So, under such circumstances, I would like to ask Daoyou Gu to go with me - we will share all the gains we make together equally. I wonder if Daoyou Gu is willing to agree?"
As soon as Chen Yanping finished speaking, Shangguan Jin's eyes fell on Gu Xu, as if looking forward to what answer he would give.
Gu Xu remained silent.
He had to admit that compared to Shangguan Jin's layers of tricks, Chen Yanping's straightforward way of speaking sounded more relaxed.
But the problem is that if he agrees to Chen Yanping, he will definitely make Shangguan Jin unhappy.
vice versa.
Gu Xu sighed silently.
He just wanted to stay low-key in the corner today and didn't want to get involved in this kind of thing.
Alas, who said that his charm is too great?
…………
However, at this moment, another person came to Gu Xu's side.
It was a girl with a slightly chubby face and an unspectacular appearance.
It was "Qingluan" Du Jingjing who asked Gu Xu for knowledge about Fu Dao a few days ago.
As soon as she saw Gu Xu, she couldn't wait to say to Gu Xu: "Gu Daoyou, I finally found you! I heard that the ruins of Laoshan Mountain are much more dangerous than I thought, so I wanted to find someone to go with me. I immediately I thought of Daoyou Gu.
"Of course, Fellow Daoist Gu is much stronger than me... I may need to rely on Fellow Daoist Gu's help many times. So for all our gains, Fellow Daoist Gu, you can choose first and leave the remaining leftovers to me. .
"With my cultivation...as long as I can return safely, I will be satisfied."
Why did another person come here who wanted to cooperate with Gu Xu?
This guy... is so popular?
Shangguan Jin's face gradually turned cold.
She was obviously the first to come today...
I thought I could easily get there first.
But who could have expected that things would turn out like this?
…………
As for Gu Xu, standing among the three of them, he sighed silently:
Alas, the monks in the "Shenji Camp" are not good at dealing with each other, so it would be easier to stay in Yishui County.
…………
PS: There is another chapter in the early morning.
