Just an ordinary day.
Nothing seems to have changed.
Xun Ke and Cang both went out. They wanted to hold a funeral.
But Gu Dan didn't go.
He no longer attends anyone's funeral and does not want to experience the separation of himself again.
At this time, he was the only one left in the Gu family courtyard.
Gu Dan's eyes circled around the courtyard. This small courtyard occupied most of his life, and countless familiar people lived here.
First it was Moqiu. At that time, it was still called Mojia Martial Arts Hall; later it was Xunke, Qinli Sheng, and Cang; and then it was Xiaoying.
Xu Zhian, Lin Xiaoyi, and Gong Shang would often come over to sit there when they were not busy. At that time, the small courtyard was actually very lively.
Xun Ke and Qin Li Sheng would practice martial arts in the yard, and sometimes they would fight and spar. They said they were sparring, but in fact it was clearly Qin Li Sheng who was unilaterally crushing them.
Xiaoying, on the other hand, ran around with Xiao Cang, making noises, and sometimes causing trouble. Lin Xiaoyi and Xu Zhian took care of them when they heard about it.
Nowadays, at least half of these people who can be recalled have not been seen and will never be seen again.
Even if the courtyard remains the same, how can people remain the same?
Time waits for no one.
He is leaving too.
He has fulfilled his original promise.
There is nothing left to miss.
Standing under the big willow tree in the yard, Gu Dan began to think carefully and seriously.
Thinking back on Xia Dynasty, whether there is anything else to do and whether there are any regrets.
The memory was turned over, and among the beauty of the past, an occasional floating thought arose.
Gu Dan went to the old site of Dayue Palace and found something.
Oven Good Fortune Pill.
This thing is an expired elixir from hundreds of years ago. There used to be two of them, but now there is only one left.
The missing one was eaten, maybe that's what caused him to come over.
But this elixir is not useless at all.
At least, Gu Dan was promoted to Grandmaster without experiencing obstacles in his Qi and blood.
In other words, even if this elixir is only a residual elixir, it is enough to help people solve the problem of qi and blood.
It's just that it's too dangerous. Even if it can save people more than ten years of hard work, the cost is lives. Who would be happy? Naturally, it was put on the shelf.
But now, this elixir should be able to be defeated by Gu Dan.
Gu Dan gently scraped off a little bit from the dark and numb Oven Good Fortune Pill, and licked it lightly with the tip of his tongue.
Extremely bitter.
Immediately afterwards, the power of medicine exploded and began to swim in Gu Dan's body.
But that kind of wandering has no rules at all, like a sudden burst of flames, running rampant and completely without purpose.
The medicinal power wanted to baptize his body in an irregular way, but unfortunately, his body was now unable to enter, and this elixir had already fallen behind in Gu Dan's eyes.
That little bit of medicinal power was soothed by Gu Dan's body without causing even the slightest splash.
This thing is now impossible to cause harm to him.
"It can indeed help people solve the problem of qi and blood problems."
After a brief feeling, Gu Dan was determined.
Of course, this elixir only helps people solve the problem of qi and blood. Whether they can live after it is completed has nothing to do with it.
Don't ask what the price is, just ask whether you have completed the qi and blood barrier!
It's a pity that this thing is a real orphan. Qing Pingzi only found it by chance and didn't dare to eat it himself.
Otherwise, if there is a complete elixir recipe and enough medicinal materials, martial arts may flourish.
"Cang"
After staring at the elixir again and again, Gu Dan already had the intention of using it.
Cang, that bastard boy, refused to continue moving forward when he reached the point of practicing martial arts, for fear of pain and torture.
But this elixir is very fast, and it will take more than ten years of hard work to be integrated into one's body, but the price is a little pain and sequelae.
The sequelae don't matter, Gu Dan has the ability to deal with them.
Maybe we can add another grandmaster to the Xia Dynasty?
I have to leave, there is no reason not to go.
When Cang finished his work and returned to Gu's courtyard tiredly, he was surprised to find Gu Dan sitting in front of the stone table, looking at him with unprecedented kindness.
Ever since he grew up, it has been a long time since he felt Gu Dan's love for him.
This made Cang a little flattered.
The passing of Sister Ying actually reminded Master that he still had such a lovely disciple!
"Cang ah."
Gu Dan waved.
"Eh."
Cang responded, ran over very obediently, and stood in front of Gu Dan. His huge and broad body was like a hill. Even though Cang was already trying hard to hold his belly in, the fat was still pushing forward uncontrollably. It's like there's a pot hidden in the belly.
"I have a gift for you."
Gu Dan said cheerfully.
"real?"
Cang is overjoyed.
He naturally knew about Xun Ke and Qin Li Sheng's promotion to Grand Master.
That was Gu Dan's gift to them.
I never thought that even a martial artist like me, who only practiced Zang, could be a part of it.
Cang was particularly happy. He knew that being the master's disciple would not make him lose at all!
"Of course it's true, just open your mouth."
Gu Dan was quite satisfied with Cang's consciousness.
Cang naturally had absolute trust in Gu Dan and immediately opened her mouth.
Then Gu Dan flicked his finger, and the elixir fell into his mouth.
Cang subconsciously closed his mouth, chewed lightly, and his expression changed drastically.
"Shihu, what is this?!"
Bitter, too bitter!
The extreme bitterness made Cang's face twist together, and his tone of voice became a little weird.
He is quite fond of sweets, and even endures hardships by running as far as he can without wanting to suffer at all.
"Swallow it."
Gu Dan warned.
"It's so painful!"
Cang could only swallow the oven good fortune pill with tears in his eyes.
"Bitterness? Where is this?"
Gu Dan shrugged slightly.
Cang: "?"
But before he could speak, an extremely violent pain came from his body.
It was as if there were thousands of knives scraping through the body at the same time, but they were all in disarray.
No matter whether it is flesh, blood, meridians, or bone marrow, it has not been spared.
In just a moment, his clothes were wet with sweat, literally pouring down from him like rain.
"Ah ah ah ah ah!"
Cang's mouth screamed like a slaughtering pig, which could be described as shaking the sky.
If he hadn't had the foundation to practice viscera, the sudden and terrifying pain would have made him pass out.
But it is precisely because of his foundation in Zang training that he can still stay awake in this pain. Whether this is sober or unfortunate, I am afraid only Cang himself knows.
He couldn't pass out. This was an excellent opportunity to feel his own energy and blood.
Cang started rolling all over the yard.
Gu Dan followed him, shooting a green light into Cang's body from time to time.
As time passed slowly, Cang's fat body became visibly thinner.
Even the moan itself seemed weak and feeble.
In the end, he lay weakly on the ground, his face twisted, and the severe pain in his body still didn't stop. He didn't even bother to struggle anymore. He just looked at the slightly blurred Gu Dan with tearful eyes and trembled. Asked: "Master, where have I offended you?"
"What are you talking about!"
Gu Dan shot another green light into Cang at the right time, with a gentle expression, "This is to help you practice."
"Can I not repair it?"
Cang really wanted to cry. This was not a sin that anyone could bear.
He was just a child in his sixties, how could he suffer such torture?
"If you still have the strength, just feel it with your heart and don't talk."
Gu Dan said.
As the sun approached evening, Gu Dan reached out and pulled up Cang, who was lying on the ground covered in dust. He looked at it carefully and sighed softly.
Cang is indeed a master of Zang training now.
But the Qi did not move on its own.
He.cannot be promoted to Grandmaster.
Inability to be promoted is actually the norm. Not everyone has the Five Elements Spiritual Roots.
Although according to common sense, everyone has all five elements, it is inevitable that there are differences and emphasis, but the master must be integrated into himself in order for his true energy to flow freely.
However, although he has not been promoted to Grandmaster, Cang has undoubtedly lost a lot of weight and has begun to be closer to the size of a normal person. Now he can only be regarded as a little fat and pale, but he looks a lot more pleasing to the eye.
Not a bad loss.
"Go, don't pretend to be dead here, find a place to take a bath by yourself."
Looking at Cang who was covered in dust, Gu Dan scolded.
"Master, I have no strength."
Cang's whole body was swaying, like duckweed in the air, ready to fall to the ground at any time.
"go away."
Gu Dan was too lazy to talk to him.
They are all accomplished warriors through Zang training, so they have no strength at all.
Although he has never experienced Qi and blood obstruction, the pain of melting the five internal organs is only a lot more than the pain of Qi and blood obstruction, and it is even more dangerous.
Facts have proved that as long as you are not hurt to death, you will not die.
"snort!"
Seeing how cruel Gu Dan was, Cang also snorted coldly, gritted his teeth and walked out of the Gu family courtyard.
I will remember this grudge. There will be a time when you need me to support you in your old age!
Watching Cang leave, the expression on Gu Dan's face softened a little, and finally he sighed softly.
He turned back to the yard and packed his things.
In fact, there is not much to pack. Since we have to rush to the Buzhou Mountains, which is a ten-year journey for the Grandmaster, he is bound to not bring too many inconvenient things with him.
For example, Gu Dan could certainly play with the small broken ball in the Dayue Palace that weighed more than a thousand kilograms, but could he take this thing all the way to the Buzhou Mountains?
Then forget it.
If you are going on a very far journey, there is no need to bring many things with you.
He doesn't have the storage bag that can be seen everywhere in the storybook, nor does the Chamber of Commerce of All Nations. Even the storage bag in the Buzhou Mountains that can cultivate immortals is a legend.
Everything can only be simplified.
Gu Dan finally took off his green robe that had not changed over the years and put on the Liuyun Chaiyue uniform.
This dress was too conspicuous. Although Wang Mang gave him several sets, Gu Dan hardly ever wore them.
Of course, as a garment woven from rare treasures, its moonlight cannot be hidden, but even if it is hidden, the bright and gorgeous white clothes are still quite eye-catching, which is not in line with Gu Dan's aesthetics.
But if you have to go on a long journey, this piece of clothing is quite useful. At least you can stay decent and don't have to worry about the damage of the clothes.
After leaving the Xia Dynasty, he was actually unknown.
In the end, Gu Dan simply packed up the package, which contained only a few pieces of clothing, some gold, and a few soothing incense sticks. He held a purple bamboo in his hand and tied the package directly to it.
Other than that, there is no need to carry any mundane things.
After packing up his things, Gu Dan carefully looked around the small courtyard and closed all the doors and windows.
When walking out of the small courtyard door, Gu Dan locked the small courtyard door.
For more than seventy years, the Gu family courtyard has been locked up again.
Gu Dan didn't say goodbye to anyone, and he wasn't going to tell anyone that he was leaving.
Just as it was silent when he came, there is no need to make waves when he leaves.
"goodbye."
Looking at the small courtyard door that had been replaced for the first time, Gu Dan smiled and waved.
Then turn around and keep going.
The old man in white robe walked forward carrying a purple bamboo pole.
With one step, the gray hair gradually recedes.
One step and the gray hair disappears.
One step, green hair like a waterfall.
In one step, wrinkles disappear.
Vaguely, there are softly humming songs floating in the air.
"Wish the wine to the east wind, and let's be calm together. The poplars are hanging down and the purple road is in the east of Luo City. We always join hands at that time, and we travel all over Fangcong.
Gathering and separation are in a hurry, this hatred is endless, this year's flowers are more red than last year's. It's a pity that the flowers will be better next year. Who knows? "
Gu Dan did not leave directly.
During the Xia Dynasty, Gu Dan also dug a tomb in a rather gorgeous tomb.
Looking at the skeleton in front of him, Gu Dan said with a cold expression: "Third Prince, I think you are lucky to die early."
After the infuriating blows, not even ashes were left on the skeleton.
The place of Bailian inheritance, Gu Dan came here again.
Gently opening the lid of the fairy coffin, looking at Mo Qiu who was rosy but still silent inside, with a wave of his hand, ten drops of green wood liquid poured into his body, enough to maintain the vitality of this body for hundreds of years. .
"Brother Mo, I have to leave."
Gu Dan spoke calmly, "The Xia Dynasty is doing well now, Xun Ke has also grown up, and he has a successor. I want to go to the Immortal Road to see what it is like."
"When you wake up, remember to find me."
Gu Dan warned.
no answer.
Gu Dan stayed in silence for a long time before the immortal coffin was closed again.
This time, there really is nothing more to do.
An ordinary day.
Cang, who hadn't visited Gu's courtyard for seven days, ended a busy day of official duties.
"I can finally rest."
Cang stretched, and the chair that had just fit him now seemed a little unexpectedly wide.
"Why don't you go to the small courtyard and take a look? It's been seven days. Master should know that he was wrong, right?"
Cang Mo stroked her chin, thought for a moment, and decided to give her master a chance to apologize.
"Go buy some good wine and food."
Cang ordered the newly arrived concubine beside him.
For some reason, his energy is different from ordinary people, and he is often in a state of extreme vitality.
Now, even though he is over sixty years old, he still retains his majesty.
There must be somewhere to vent your energy that has nowhere to go, right?
So it is reasonable for him to have so many wives and concubines!
It's a pity that people like Master, who are not close to women, don't understand it at all. Alas, Chu Cang can only bear this pain silently, and he doesn't have the same experience as the old man.
A quick car and a horse rushed to the door of Gu's courtyard with wine and food. Cang jumped out of the car and shouted before seeing anyone: "Master~"
Very loud sound.
But there is no need to worry about disturbing the people. The surrounding houses have been surrounded by Wang Mang for a long time, and there are no real neighbors.
It wasn't that he wanted to monitor Gu Dan, but he was worried that someone with blind eyes would disturb him.
But today's courtyard seems a little different.
Cang was very familiar with the Gu family courtyard, so why did he feel it was different at first glance?
After staring at it carefully, Cang was shocked to realize that the door to Gu's courtyard was actually locked!
"Which bastard dares to lock my door?!"
Cang was furious.
Do I still need to lock the door in the Gu family courtyard in Xia Dynasty?
What a joke!
Even if the door is always open, who dares to go in and steal something?
Cang ran to the door of the small courtyard and was about to pull the iron lock open, when he suddenly froze.
The food and wine held in the other hand fell to the ground.
If Master were here, who in the world could secretly lock the door of the small courtyard? !
"Master?"
"Master?!"
"Master, where are you? Open the door!!!"
Cang was locked out of the door, and the iron lock that the majestic martial artist could easily break seemed to weigh more than ten thousand pounds at this moment, and was stronger than any copper or iron wall.
no answer.
There was silence.
Here, it's locked.
Three days later, Cang, who had been waiting outside the door for three days, still didn't wait until the door to the small courtyard was opened.
Xun Ke and Emperor Taiping both came.
"Back then, he didn't lock this place even after he left for nearly ten years, right?"
Emperor Taiping asked carefully.
"Um."
Xun Ke just nodded.
"he"
Emperor Taiping stopped talking as soon as he spoke.
Xun Ke also did not answer.
On that day, some pedestrians passing by this street were surprised to see Emperor Taiping, dressed in dragon robes, bowing three times to a locked courtyard. Beside him stood a Confucian leader, And a fat little man who is like a heir.
How strange and strange!
And further away, a figure in white robe stared silently there for a long time.
Then he turned around and walked further away without looking back.
I have walked all the way in this world.
