There were bursts of cheers in Jianzhong's house.
Lin Xiao was directing these people to move here and there, mumbling something, saying that they were going on a long trip this time, so everyone should bring everything they could, so that they could never come back to this place again.
Zhao Qixing and others stared at this scene. Some were ashamed, some chuckled, and some had headaches.
Gu Xiaotian came over with the wooden sword given by Lin Shan. Zhao Qixing glanced at it and asked with a smile: "Where did you pick up this broken wooden sword?"
"Sent from Lin Shan."
Zhao Qixing said oh, and said that it was the right thing to do, and then joined the group of people moving things. Of course, this guy didn't really want to help, but wanted to see if he could miss some good things. After all, this was in the Sword Tomb. , It is not in circulation with the outside world. If you find something strange and no one else wants it, you can use it to pay off your debt when you go back to the gambling table and have no money.
Anyway, he has an innate talent for deceiving people, and he can be said to be alive even if he dies.
When Lin Xiao saw Gu Xiaotian coming back, he hurriedly walked forward, bowed slightly and cupped his hands and said, "Thanks to my benefactor this time, we can get out of this sword tomb."
Gu Xiaotian asked: "What are your plans after leaving the Sword Tomb?"
Lin Xiao glanced at the tribesmen behind him, with a smile on his face, "Let's go to more places first, and finally choose a more lively place to settle down, and live out the last days peacefully."
There is something in Gu Xiaotian's words: "Can you get used to it?"
Lin Xiao understood and smiled bitterly.
He has also thought about this question. They have been in the Sword Tomb all their lives. They were born in the Sword Tomb and grew up in the Sword Tomb. If it were not for Gu Xiaotian, they might have died in the Sword Tomb. Now they can go out. Everyone They were all happy and wanted to go outside and see the wider world, but Lin Xiao was still the backbone of this group of people after all, so he had to think about the problem in a longer term.
Finally, Lin Xiao said angrily: "Find a way to get used to it."
Gu Xiaotian decided to help Lin Xiao finally. He took out a map from his backpack and handed it to Lin Xiao, asking Lin Xiao to follow the official road on the map and avoid the places marked with red crosses if possible. If you really can't find a suitable place to live, just go back to Kyoto, find his grandfather, and tell him your intention.
Lin Xiao quickly thanked him.
Finally, Gu Xiaotian made a request.
"Don't move everything away. If Lin Shan doesn't want to leave, then there's no need to persuade him. Leave some things for him. It's best if the house still feels like a home."
Lin Xiao quickly nodded in agreement and found Lin Shan's parents to arrange everything.
Afterwards, the people at Jianzhong continued to pack their bags, while Lin Xiao sent Gu Xiaotian and others to the entrance of Jianzhong.
In front of the entrance of the sword tomb, Gu Xiaotian thanked him and turned to leave.
As soon as I stepped out of the oasis of Jianzhong, I looked back and the oasis of Jianzhong had disappeared.
It was another desert, and several people were walking together. When they were finally on the official road, Zhao Qixing turned around, cupped his hands in front of the people and said, "Everyone, I am here with you. See you again when we are destined!"
No one wanted to stay, Zhao Qixing came and left mysteriously alone.
Standing on the official road, Qu Xiaohan asked: "In one day, you don't seem to hate him so much anymore?"
Gu Xiaotian smiled knowingly and did not explain.
They spent a year together in the dense forest.
Qu Xiaohan braced herself and asked where she would go next. She and Gu Xiaotian had not been on the same road for too long, but it had indeed been quite a while.
Her colorful sacred deer has already gone to Bashu Tangmen by itself. She originally planned to accompany Gu Xiaotian to the border, probably to meet with the leader of the border alliance, talk to each other, and then leave.
Gu Xiaotian took out the map from his backpack. Their current location was a little off. They originally planned to follow the official road and pass through several big cities before reaching the border, but now it seems that they have to take a long detour.
Qu Xiaohan looked at the map, pointed at Yun'an on the map and said: "It's better to make the mistake and go to Yun'an to have a look. Judging by the time, Yu Gui has been there for some time, and it's good time to learn about Gu insects. thing
Son. "
Anyway, isn’t this trip just to broaden your horizons?
Everyone had no objections, so they headed to Yunhao Five Poisons.
...
Yunai is located a generation further north, some distance away from the northernmost border.
Gu Xiaotian and his party walked for three days and finally reached the edge of Yun'an.
Low-lying swamps, cone-shaped volcanoes.
This is the appearance of Yun Ai in front of Gu Xiaotian.
Gu Xiaotian couldn't help but shudder, pointing at this slightly gloomy place and saying, "Why do I always feel like this is a devil's cave."
Qu Xiaohan smiled and said: "More than ten years ago, this place was indeed a devil's cave."
More than ten years ago, Yunkai Wudu was the most rebellious sect and committed countless crimes.
The reason why Yu Gui somewhat rejects the Five Poisons is also due to this reason.
After all, throughout the ages, people with superb medical skills have looked down on people who use poison, believing that good and evil cannot exist.
But in the end, the Five Poisons belonged to the Heaven and Earth Alliance, and their military exploits were clearly visible, and I had to sigh.
Worlds, full of wonders.
Walking into Wu Du, Qu Xiaohan was already prepared. He took out five foot binding cloths from his luggage and asked Gu Xiaotian and others to put them on their feet.
Qu Xiaohan came here to buy these cloths from a street cloth dealer in the past three days. After he came back, he started tinkering with them by himself.
According to Qu Xiaohan, there are snakes in this place, and they are the kind of highly venomous snakes. Put on the foot binding cloth, so that the snakes can't bite through it, and you can walk with more peace of mind.
Regardless of whether there was a snake or not, Gu Xiaotian still chose to put it on, at least he could feel better.
A few people entered the low-lying swamp and after walking a few steps, heavy fog appeared in front of them.
The road that could be seen clearly in front became increasingly blurry, until a few people walked to the center and were completely surrounded by fog.
Qu Xiaohan frowned and quickly covered his mouth and nose as a reminder: "This fog is poisonous!"
Gu Xiaotian quickly held his breath and gradually slowed down his steps.
No one saw that in the fog, the figure of a masked man flashed past, turned around and ran towards the Five Poison Hall behind him.
Fortunately, this low-lying swamp was not too long, and the few people stepped out of the fog just as their breath was approaching the limit.
In front of him, on a doorpost, there was a plaque with the two characters "Five Poisons" written on it.
The decorations within the Five Poisons are mainly black, with some cyan and gray interspersed in between.
In short, compared to other sects, the fascinating red and white colors and the Five Poisons' decoration look extremely underworld.
There was no one standing guard in front of the Wudu Gate. After walking in, you could only see disciples in purple clothes in twos and threes. Each one held a small jar in his hand and walked quickly to another direction.
Looking in the direction they were walking, they saw the Gu Hall of Five Poisons.
And the small jars in their hands are the Gu insects cultivated by these disciples.
Usually after coming to other sects, Gu Xiaotian would first visit the leader, but at that time there were always leaders or elders from other sects who came out to greet him. Wu Du did not have this kind of hospitality at all. .
Qu Xiaohan reassured Gu Xiaotian that she knew where the heads of the Five Poisons were usually, so she led the way around the Gu Yang Palace.
After walking around in the Gu Yang Palace for a few more times, Gu Xiaotian finally felt that the environment was a little more comfortable. The green plants planted here were very eye-catching, forming a completely different contrast with the gloomy environment outside.
Among the green plants, there is a small pavilion located here. In the small pavilion, there are several stone benches, and two people are playing chess in the pavilion.
There was a man and a woman. The man had a sallow complexion and was a little thin. He couldn't tell what he looked like. All he knew was that his hair was very long and unkempt, covering his eyes.
The woman, on the other hand, has a beautiful face and fair skin. Different from the Five Poison disciples she saw before, she doesn't look like a person among the Five Poisons at all.
Qu Xiaohan smiled and led Gu Xiaotian and his group towards the pavilion. The man didn't care at all who was coming.
, holding the chess piece in his right hand, staring at the chessboard, lowering his head and thinking.
The woman raised her head and smiled, but said nothing.
Qu Xiaohan looked anxious and wanted to speak out.
The woman stopped her quickly and said, "A true gentleman watches the chess game without speaking."
Qu Xiaohan argued sophistry: "I am a woman, not a gentleman, I am the ninth of the twelve!"
The man suddenly became enlightened and repeatedly praised the good move. Finally, he raised his head and glanced at the woman opposite him. He sighed slightly and felt helpless before letting go of his two pieces and admitting defeat.
The woman won the chess game and said sternly: "Alchemist Bee, how many times has this been lost to me?"
Alchemist Feng shook his head, "I can't count them all. The Gu Raising Hall should have already made arrangements. I'll go take a look first to avoid any mistakes."
After Alchemist Bee left, the woman put away the chess pieces, stood up, looked at Qu Xiaohan and said, "Your talkative and sophistical habits are getting better and better."
"Bonus, yes, I'm not here to play chess with you. You must have heard of these people?"
The woman looked in the direction of Qu Xiaohan's finger and nodded. These three young men were consistent with the rumors, and she could probably figure them out.
Then, the woman stretched out her hand and introduced herself: "I have heard the stories of Gu Xiaotian, Duan Peng, and Huang Shengjie. I am the current head of the Five Poisons, Lan Fengyue."
Gu Xiaotian and others quickly bowed their heads and saluted, saying "Master Lan".
Lan Fengyue said: "I know what you guys want to do here. I have taken out the poisonous insects of that junior sister Yu Gui and are recovering in my palace. However, it will take some time and it's dinner time. If so, If you don’t mind it, how about you try the characteristics of our Five Poisons?”
When you arrive at someone else's territory, you naturally have to listen to what others say. Gu Xiaotian and others were brought to his palace by Lan Fengyue, and the characteristics of the five poisons that were immediately presented made Gu Xiaotian dumbfounded.
Just the plate of roasted scorpions on the table made Gu Xiaotian a little intimidated, and then a plate of roasted centipedes was served, which made Gu Xiaotian flinch even more.
Lan Fengyue also specially put a roasted centipede for Gu Xiaotian, and said with a sinister smile: "Try it, this thing is a great supplement."
Gu Xiaotian frowned. After all, this was someone's good intention, so he didn't want to offend others, but he really couldn't bear to eat the food in front of him!
Qu Xiaohan patted Lan Fengyue and said, "Stop teasing him. I'm from Kyoto after all. Where can I get such a thing?"
Lan Fengyue really thought it was fun and deliberately teased Gu Xiaotian, and then ordered people to change the normal dishes.
On the dinner table.
After taking two bites of the food, Lan Fengyue put down her chopsticks and said to several people, "Five Poisons are in trouble."
