After descending the mountain, go all the way north.
Naturally, they were talking and laughing along the way. Gu Xiaotian never put on any airs, but he became very respectful to Gu Xiaotian.
A piece of thousand-year-old rock is certainly precious, but leaving the thousand-year-old rock around is always a hidden danger. If someone knows about it, it may bring much trouble to Guyun Temple, and the thousand-year-old rock has no substance to Guyun Temple. effect.
On the contrary, in the library, the three of them each chose a treasure. It is hard to say whether its value is greater than the thousand-year-old rock, but to themselves, it is much more precious than the thousand-year-old rock.
Yi Ming chose a Taoist book and has been reading it for the past month. He vaguely felt that the bottleneck that had not been loosened for many years was beginning to shake. Given time, he would surely become a martial artist.
Evian chose a jade pen. This jade pen was placed in the middle of the library on the seventh floor. She picked up the jade pen almost without thinking, but in the past month, she After repeated research, she actually failed to understand the function of this jade pen, but when she was choosing a pen, that pen had been inspiring her.
As for the male disciple, he chose a Taoist method.
All in all, the three of them have achieved moderate gains, and Guyun Temple has taken a historic step this time.
The carriage was moving forward, and it was approaching New Year's Eve. The wind and snow along the way were gradually getting heavier. Gu Xiaotian couldn't help shaking his head and smiling bitterly. In the past few years, except for the year when he first became a disciple of Taibai, he had never had a decent meal. New Year's Eve dinner.
The three of them stopped the carriage in a small town and came to the inn. Yiming even took the initiative to cook, saying that he wanted Gu Xiaotian to try the specialties of Guyunguan.
A table of dishes was spread out quickly. Looking at the dishes, Gu Xiaotian joked: "Brother Yi shouldn't be a Taoist priest. If he went down the mountain to be a cook, he might be in charge of the imperial kitchen in Kyoto by now."
Yi Ming said with a smile: "In previous years during the New Year celebrations in Guyun Temple, I would cook the New Year's Eve dinner. I'll get used to it with practice."
A table of good food, several jars of good wine, and a harmonious atmosphere.
Gu Xiaotian couldn't help but feel warm in his heart. This "New Year's Eve dinner" was the most peaceful one he had eaten in recent years.
After drinking too much, Yiming seemed to have changed. In the past, he was cautious when speaking. Unexpectedly, after drinking too much, he became a chatterbox and started to chatter.
The content is nothing more than how difficult it is for Guyun Temple. I want to fulfill the last wishes of my ancestors. When it comes to the emotional part, I cry loudly. In the end, I just kneel down in front of Gu Xiaotian and plead: "Gu Xiaotian, I know that you and we are not from the same world, but I still have only one daughter like this in my life. If I unfortunately pass away one day and someone causes trouble for my daughter, please help me."
Gu Xiaotian helped Yi Ming up and said with a smile: "Guyun Temple is very interesting. As long as I am here, Guyun Temple will always be there."
After taking the reassurance, Yi Ming giggled.
After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.
Only then did Gu Xiaotian get down to business.
"We'll go a little further and we'll reach Qinchuan. We may have to say goodbye here then."
Hearing what Gu Xiaotian said, Yi Ming immediately shook his head and said: "We won't leave, we will stay with you. When you finish dealing with the matter in Beihuang, we will return with you along the same route, and then return to Guyun Temple .”
Gu Xiaotian did not directly nod in agreement, but reminded him: "Actually, I should have arrived in Beihuang as planned half a month ago, but the travel party was delayed for a while, and I always feel that this trip to Beihuang is not as good as I thought. It’s that simple.”
"People could die, and a lot of people could die."
"I have always heard that there was a war thirteen years ago. I always feel that this time it will be more tragic than that war thirteen years ago."
After hearing about the battle thirteen years ago, Yi Ming was stunned and sobered up a lot.
At that time, the imperial court invited Guyun Guan, but Guyun Guan chose to stand by and watch. However, he also heard that after that war, the situation in the world was no longer as stable as before, and there were undercurrents everywhere.
There is no doubt that if Yi Ming chooses to continue to follow Gu Xiaotian to Beihuang, then even if he wants to refuse, he will not be able to say so.
Gu Xiaotian is naturally aware of Yi Ming's concerns.
Guyun Temple has finally made a slight improvement. If this war knocks Guyun Temple back to the bottom, then all the previous efforts will be in vain.
Yiming fell silent.
Evian was very puzzled and asked: "Dad! What is there to hesitate about? Gu Xiaotian has helped us so much on the road, are we going to shrink back because of fear?"
Yi Ming glanced at his own daughter and sighed helplessly.
From the bottom of his heart, if he were alone, he would follow Gu Xiaotian without hesitation.
But there is an entire Guyun Temple behind him, as well as his own daughter.
If Evian's state were thrown into the battlefield now, it would be no different from cannon fodder.
And he is not strong enough to protect Evian.
How could anyone want a white-haired person to give a black-haired person.
Gu Xiaotian smiled and said: "Brother Yi, no matter whether you help or not, I won't take it seriously. I originally thought that this trip would be very boring, but fortunately, I met Guyunguan, and I gained a lot of knowledge. To be honest, I also got some opportunities, and I owe them to Guyun Temple."
Yi Ming waved his hands repeatedly. They had already received a lot of benefits from following Gu Xiaotian, but in the end, others came to thank him, which they really couldn't afford.
After the dinner ended, Yiming felt a little absent-minded during the journey. He wanted to open his mouth to say something countless times, but after much deliberation, he could never say the words.
Gu Xiaotian saw this but didn't mind at all.
Having this heart is enough.
…
…
The next day, the group continued on the road.
Yiming had huge dark circles under his eyes, obviously from not sleeping the night before.
Evian started to lose her temper, probably because she wanted to continue to follow Gu Xiaotian, but her father didn't say anything, so she had no choice but to follow him.
Gu Xiaotian looked at Evian and recalled: "I remember when we first met, you thought I was a big talker."
Evian blushed with embarrassment. Why bring this up when it is a pile of sesame seeds and rotten millet?
"But it doesn't matter. I don't hold grudges. I will avenge them on the spot."
Gu Xiaotian looked at the jade pen in Eyun's hand and said: "That jade pen is not a vulgar thing. You can choose that jade pen. It is obviously your own arrangement. You might as well think back to what you desire most." what exactly is it."
Evian nodded and began to think hard. After a moment, the jade pen glowed green, but it quickly dissipated.
Evian exclaimed, just now she felt a strong Qi flow out of the jade pen, along the palm of her hand, and spread throughout her body.
Gu Xiaotian looked pleased.
If you think less, you can indeed go further.
Cleaning up is also beneficial.
Arriving at the foot of Qinchuan Mountain, the carriage stopped.
Gu Xiaotian cupped his fists towards Yi Ming and said, "Thank you so much, brother Yi, for accompanying me all the way. It's just that there is no such thing as a banquet in the world. The world is not big, so we can see each other again if we are destined."
In the end, Yi Ming did not say that he was willing to follow Gu Xiaotian.
Yi Ming stepped out of the carriage with a face of shame and whispered: "This matter is really too big. I... always have to think about it."
"But don't worry, no matter what, I will not be your enemy."
Gu Xiaotian laughed loudly and patted Yi Ming on the shoulder, "Your words are enough."
There is a killing array at the foot of the Heaven and Earth Alliance Mountain. If ordinary people enter rashly, they will die miserably.
Since they were with him all the way, Gu Xiaotian easily dispelled the killing formation and said: "Remember, if you see an elder sister with a knife on her waist after you go up, don't mess with her. If you see her dressed like a scholar, If you are a person, you can explain your intention to him."
Yi Ming nodded and kept it in mind.
At this point, let's say goodbye.
Gu Xiaotian continued on the road, heading towards Beihuang.
…
…
Along the way, Gu Xiaotian speeded up.
On the way, I didn’t encounter anything new.
With nothing to do, Gu Xiaotian took out the jade talisman he got from the founder of the mountain and put it in his hand.
With a little luck, white mist immediately rose from his palm.
As the white mist penetrated into the middle of the jade talisman, the jade talisman began to shine faintly.
The moment Gu Xiaotian blinked, the light suddenly expanded and quickly became extremely dazzling. The jade talisman in his hand suddenly began to shake strangely.
Within the jade talisman, sword energy suddenly rose up.
Gu Xiaotian couldn't help being startled, and quickly took a deep breath, trying to inhale the sword energy into his body.
One wave has not subsided, but another wave has arisen.
I saw the jade talisman breaking free from Gu Xiaotian's palm and rising into the air, emitting a dazzling light.
The edgeless sword on the side began to tremble, then it was pulled out of its sheath and hovered next to the jade talisman.
Countless sword energy began to float towards Wufeng Sword, and soon it lingered around Wufeng, tightly wrapping Wufeng in the sword energy.
Looking at this scene, Gu Xiaotian didn't know how to deal with it.
Just by sensing it, the sword energy is extremely powerful. If you take it forcefully at this time, you will definitely be injured by the sword energy.
For this reason, he had no choice but to stop the carriage and watch helplessly.
Occasionally, he would collect the sword energy that floated towards him.
This scene lasted for a while, and Gu Xiaotian felt as if the sword energy in his body was about to overflow. He couldn't bear it, and there was a pain in his chest.
This pain has never happened before.
It was as if he had eaten too much and was pushing it to his chest, ready to spit it out at any moment.
For some reason, Gu Xiaotian suddenly took out the elixir he got from Zhenwu Temple, threw it directly into his mouth, and began to meditate with his eyes closed.
After the elixir entered his body, what Gu Xiaotian had noticed before was that the extremely powerful sword energy in the elixir did not rush towards his face like a flood. Instead, it was very gentle and began to penetrate into his internal organs, making him Much more comfortable.
White mist gradually dispersed from the body, and the sword energy drifting toward the jade talisman was cleverly softened, describing an extremely comfortable and subtle aura.
The edgeless sword finally trembled slightly at this moment, left the jade talisman in response, and got back into the sheath.
The jade talisman was also at this moment, its light gradually weakened, and fell back from the sky to Gu Xiaotian's side.
Gu Xiaotian was still meditating with his eyes closed, gradually dispersing the Qi in his body, allowing the overflowing Qi to gradually integrate into his internal organs.
When he opened his eyes again, the night sky was already as dark as ink.
Gu Xiaotian slowly opened his eyes and exhaled a breath.
Feeling the energy in his body, the corners of Gu Xiaotian's mouth curved slightly.
Now I am a real martial arts saint.
33
Some people died, but not completely...
