Dusk. The branches swayed in the autumn wind, and the gloomy sky covered the sun.
Suddenly, the sky softened, an eerie softness. It makes people feel that autumn should be the kind of ferocious beauty.
Scholar Yishan stopped.
The bearded man jumped up on the wall and watched the show with great interest.
The red flame on the musket in the hand of the man with scars all over his body jumped a few times.
"Alas!" The young Taoist sighed in disappointment. Although the sound was not loud, it was full of regret. Then, he stood up and said, "You were the one who could find him, but you are the one who is blocking me now. Do you know that if you protect such a sinful person, what will you bear? You can't even tell the difference between good and evil?"
Qin Xian lowered her head, her expression unclear, and said with a tired voice: "The world says he is not good at all, but he is good to me and my mother, so I can't say anything bad about him."
Hearing Qin Xian's words, Zhang Jian, who stopped in the distance, twitched his eyebrows and finally turned to look at the young man.
The young Taoist immediately felt that it was true that people had different paths in life, yet he actually said this.
"Okay, then do whatever you want." The young Taoist gritted his teeth and said.
Protect yourself from evildoers, Qin Xian, even if you don't die, you will have a hard time leaving in this life!
Seeing the young Taoist making seals with his hands again, Gu Hao put a big hand on the young man's shoulder and said slowly: "Get out of the way. He is right. A person who destroys a whole family does not deserve anyone to protect him. I have not done anything to you mother and son." Too much, you don’t have to.”
Qin Xian's eyes were red, and she forced a smile and said: "But Uncle Gu, my mother is gone, if something happens to you again, there will be no adults in my family!"
Gu Hao was a little moved. The young man had always regarded him as a relative. But not long ago, he was just like the villagers and looked down on him. Today's events made him look at the young man with new eyes. Maybe he was really a poor teacher and a good guide, maybe he would have a better future. excellent.
Then he grabbed Qin Xian's clothes, just like that day by the stream, ignoring the boy's cries and throwing him towards Zhang Jian in the distance.
He said loudly: "Sir, Qin Xian would like to ask you to guide me and be a good person."
Zhang Jian took the flying boy with his hand and put his backhand on his side to prevent him from moving. He felt that the crying was too noisy, so he shouted: "Silence!"
Qin Xian suddenly seemed to have her mouth sealed by something, unable to speak.
Gu Hao started with a musket-collapsing spear style, pointing directly at the center of Tao Xiujing's eyebrows.
"Sir, I suddenly like to be a good person!" After saying this, the gun in his hand was like a dragon, and he hit Taoist Black Mist.
The black mist Taoist in the Yin Yang Xuan Mansion held two decapitating knives, one large and one small, in each hand. He faced the musket in Gu Hao's hand, and in an instant he was able to fight dozens of them.
The speed was so fast that only Zhang Jian and Cheng Qiu could see it clearly. In the eyes of others, they could only see two groups of light, one red and one black, flickering and entangled.
The black mist from the candle burning on the gun made a "squeaking" sound.
Cheng Qiu squatted on the wall and said with a smile: "This Yin Yang Xuan Mansion looks like an evil weapon. The heavenly magic weapons of Dao Sect are really weird."
As he spoke, he shouted at the top of his lungs: "Hey, why don't you hit that little Taoist priest? What's the point of fighting this magic weapon? He's so stupid."
Gu Hao didn't know that the best way to break the magic weapon was to kill the person envoy, but the black mist Taoist priest was blocking the way and couldn't find any chance.
Gu Hao suddenly held a musket in both hands, jumped up high, used the Overlord Nod, and smashed down the heavy gun, like a volcano erupting, and the Black Mist Taoist was shattered.
Before Gu Hao could be happy, he saw that the black mist had returned and the Taoist reappeared, even more powerful than before.
He thought in his mind that continuing like this was not an option and that he needed to deal with the young Taoist, so he distanced himself from the Black Mist Taoist and stepped on the ground with strange postures.
Yubu!
With his right foot in front and his left foot behind, his body is like a bird, rising from the ground, stepping in the air, and in three steps he is in front of the black mist Taoist priest. There are nine afterimages behind him.
The Three Steps and Nine Traces are the great method of the Yu Step. After Gu Hao got it, he went to Dingshan to practice every day, and he finally achieved it not long ago.
This time, Gu Hao was right in front of him, but Black Mist Taoist Priest did not move at all until he came to Tao Xiujing. He ignored the shocked look on his face and stabbed out with a spear.
The fire pierced the chest of the young Taoist priest.
The flying sword hanging beside the young Taoist turned into a book again and fell to the ground.
The black fog Taoist dissipated.
Gu Hao entrusted the Yin Yang Xuan Mansion in his hands.
He held the young Taoist priest with a gun in one hand and said coldly: "I said, you can't do it!"
The young Taoist endured the severe pain in his chest, but still smiled and said, "If you want to be a good person, why don't you commit suicide and still resist."
Gu Hao shook his head and said: "I can't die if my worries are not settled."
"You are really a fool in the shadow of the Western Emperor." The young Taoist laughed.
Gu Hao snorted coldly and said, "You really deserve to die!"
The moment he dispersed the musket, he grabbed the young Taoist's neck with his right hand and lifted it in the air.
Although the young Taoist was a little out of breath, his smile became even brighter and he managed to squeeze out his voice: "Now, I am enough!"
He suddenly clasped Gu Hao's wrist with both hands, chanted a mantra in his heart, and the golden elixir flew out of his body, turning into a golden man and flying into Gu Hao's forehead.
As soon as the little golden man enters the sea of consciousness on the ancient Hao Lingtai, he goes straight to the place where the three souls are. If all three souls are present, he becomes a human; if one of them is removed, he becomes a ghost.
The three souls of a person must be protected no matter what sect or method they practice, so what the golden villain saw when he came was a high wall like an iron barrel, which was airtight.
An ax appeared in the hand of the golden man, and he hit the high wall again and again. It seemed that it was too slow, so he changed it to a hammer.
But the tired little man was so tired that after smashing for a long time, he could only make a hole half a foot square.
Suddenly there was a whistling sound of wind behind him, and it turned out to be a candle flame.
Gu Hao saw that the young Taoist's golden elixir actually came out of his body and entered his spiritual sea of consciousness. He hurriedly sat down and looked inside, using the martial arts candlelight to stop him.
The candlelight is chasing behind, and the little golden man is escaping around the high wall in front. Of course, he does not forget to take the time to hit the high wall with a hammer while escaping. The little golden man seems to be unable to speak, but it is not difficult to see the constant opening and closing of his mouth. Contains a lot of mother.
Just like this, they were chasing and escaping inside Gu Hao's body. Outside his body, Gu Hao and the young Taoist both stood still and reached a deadlock.
Cheng Qiu crouched and moved forward, looked at it for a while, then turned to Zhang Jian and asked, "Sir, what is this?"
Zhang Jian said: "Youshan is the only Taoist sect in the world that cultivates inner elixirs. You must maintain your own life and seek your own breakthrough. Baiyun Palace has heard that another golden elixir genius has emerged. He was rated as the second person of the younger generation by Wen Jiangzi. It is said that he has gone through different things. Based on Jia Zhenren’s golden elixir method, the Three Old Temples and Baiyun Palace are located on the same mountain. Perhaps this is the new golden elixir method."
Cheng Qiu gave a thumbs up and praised: "It must be Mr. Bowen!"
Zhang Jian looked deeply at Cheng Qiu and said, "There are many great masters in the world, but I know most of them who are your age, but I have no impression of you at all."
"Little nursing home." There was a hint of helplessness on his face, and he continued: "Sir, you know the affairs of the world, but there are some places that are, how should I say, filthy! It's a good thing that you don't know."
As if he didn't want to say more about this, he asked instead: "Are you Mr. Fourth from Xiaozhu Villa?"
Zhang Jian was slightly confused and did not answer. Instead, he asked: "You care about Yan Fu's Daqing Academy and Xiaozhu Academy during the day. Do you think there is a big difference between the two?"
Speaking of Da Qing Academy, Cheng Qiu said disdainfully: "That Boss Yan spends all his time hanging around the court, doing things like destiny. His eyes are full of power, fame and fortune. Fortunately, he is still a disciple of the sage Confucius. How can he look like a scholar?"
"Oh? What do you think of scholars?" Zhang Jian asked.
"You should be like Mr. Yan Er of Xiaozhu Villa, who hides in the city, teaches the people, puts kindness and etiquette first, and should be a scholar." Unlike before, Cheng Qiu's eyebrows lit up when he mentioned Xiaozhu Villa, with a look of longing on his face.
Then he coughed dryly and said, "You haven't said who you are yet?"
Zhang Jian said: "The statue of the sage and Master is passed down to Zhang Jian."
There are two types of Confucian scholars in the world. One is a Confucian scholar who pays homage to the statue of the sage Master. If he has the opportunity to be handed down a "Confucian character slip" by the statue, he is regarded as a direct disciple of the sage. Then the disciple is a re-disciple. If there is no one worthy of "Jian" in the world, the Master's statue will take back the "Jian" and wait for the next suitable person. The second is that those who uphold "Jian" do not teach "Jian" to accept disciples, and are called their disciples. There are seven Confucian "Seven-Character Slips" in the world today, also known as the "Seven-Character Confucian Slips".
Cheng Qiu jumped off the wall, hugged him and said, "I'm sorry, Sir, please don't blame me for being abrupt earlier."
Zhang Jian raised his hand slightly to indicate that he did not have to do this, and at the same time said slowly: "Your temperament is more like a child, not like a master."
Cheng Qiu chuckled and said, "I would like to be like a gentleman."
Something unexpected happened.
A sword light passed by, and a thin sword pierced Gu Hao's belly.
In the dusk, the figure still stood upright, his eyes still full of anger, looking straight into the distance.
Then he used the last of his strength to pull out the thin sword from his belly with both hands, hold it in his hands and crush it, and a fountain of blood spurted out and sprinkled on the ground.
After that, everyone saw Gu Hao's body swaying and slumped down at the feet of the young Taoist.
The golden man flew back, and the young Taoist sat down on the ground leaning against the wall, looking at the rooftop in the distance.
There stood a middle-aged man with slender eyebrows, retracting his sword.
In one step, we arrived at the venue.
Cheng Qiu was in disbelief. He turned to look at Zhang Jian, then looked at his slender eyebrows, and said, "Is it wrong? A grand master is planning a sneak attack?"
Then he said to Zhang Jian: "Sir, I don't think he looks like a master."
The slender eyebrows ignored Cheng Qiu's sarcasm, first gave Zhang Jian a casual hug, and then turned to Gu Hao.
"Your Majesty has been looking for you for a long time. It turns out that you are hiding here. This trip to Zuzhou is really an unexpected surprise." Slender eyebrows said with a smile.
Gu Hao looked sideways at the person coming, his mouth full of blood, and said with force: "It turns out it's you, an eunuch."
Cheng Qiu was shocked and said: "It turns out he is a eunuch, no wonder he behaves so shamelessly."
"Taoist sect is our great state religion, and the "three towns in the country" are all real Taoist sect leaders. Naturally, they share the same hatred. The Tao Dai sect leader was in danger, and I came to help. What's the problem? "Although the slender eyebrows were staring at Gu Hao, he was talking to Cheng Qiu and Zhang Jian.
"Hmph, I was defeated by you. Kill me and go to Jiang Xidang to claim the credit!" Gu Hao said.
"Oh, General Gu is so high up. If our little secretary dares to deal with you, I will bring you back to the palace and ask your majesty to make a decision. However, I think your majesty may execute you in front of someone." He said with a teasing look on his slender eyebrows.
Gu Hao's expression changed drastically.
