"Qingqing!" Gu Shuo blurted out, then exhausted all his strength and fell towards the ground. It turned out that Shi Qingqing was following behind Gu Shuo and firing towards the Fang family ancestor. Gu Shuo and the Fang family ancestor fought, but Shi Qingqing could not stop his forward momentum and simply sent a blow towards the Fang family ancestor.
Gu Shuo was very worried. Even if the ancestor of the Fang family was seriously injured, he would still be a spirit. How could Shi Qingqing and Nascent Soul be able to withstand it? As soon as his mind moved, he took out a silver ingot from the storage bag, raised his hand, and threw it out.
"laugh……"
The silver ingot shot towards Shi Qingqing's back and caught up with Shi Qingqing in an instant. At this time, Shi Qingqing's long sword was less than one foot away from the Fang family ancestor. The ancestor of the Fang family was covered in blood and his eyes were crazy. He waved his left sleeve and wrapped it around Shi Qingqing's long sword. The long sleeves were like flowing clouds, wrapped around the sword body that was thrust forward, and instantly became like steel, tightening the sword. It is a unique skill that the ancestor of the Fang family has practiced successfully.
Liuyun Iron Sleeves!
Shi Qingqing's face showed panic, and the murderous intention in the eyes of the Fang family ancestor seemed to be real.
At this moment, a little silver light came out from behind Shi Qingqing. The silver ingot was blocked by Shi Qingqing's body, and the ancestor of the Fang family didn't even see Gu Shuo throw a silver ingot. Now that I saw it, it was too late to react.
"boom!"
The silver ingot hit his forehead, which shattered immediately. The heartbreaking pain made his mind roar, and Liuyun's iron sleeves couldn't help but loosen. Shi Qingqing's long sword was like a dragon escaping from trouble, driving straight in.
"puff!"
Shi Qingqing actually cut off the left arm of the Fang family ancestor with a sword.
"Bang bang..."
The ancestor of the Fang family kicked the ground with both feet and flew away upside down. Gu Shuo's figure had already rushed over, grabbed Shi Qingqing's arm, and shouted:
"Walk!"
The two people jumped away, flying away like eagles, crossing an arc, falling towards the ground, and then jumped away again. After several leaps, they had caught up with Nanzhongxing and landed on the ground. Above the dragon and horse. Running away.
"Tap tap tap..."
The servants of the Fang family rode their horses to the side of the ancestor of the Fang family. Seeing that the ancestor of the Fang family had lost both arms, they all dismounted as if they were mourning for their heirs:
"Ancestor..."
"Why are you crying!" The ancestor of the Fang family shouted: "Immediately send a message to Feige, the Fang family branch in Lima City, and ask them to intercept Nanzhong Bank. You follow me and continue to chase."
"Ancestor..."
"go!"
"Yes!" The servant wiped away his tears, got on his horse, and galloped towards the carriage where the tributes were placed.
"Wrap the wounds!"
Immediately, two people came up to apply medicine to the ancestor of the Fang family and bind the wound. Another person came up, took out a jade bottle, poured out an elixir and put it at the mouth of the ancestor of the Fang family. The ancestor of the Fang family swallowed it in one gulp. After a while, the wounds on both shoulders had been covered. The ancestor of the Fang family jumped onto his horse:
"Chase!"
"Ancestor, your injury..."
"I was just careless and fell into their trap. Even if I lost my arms, I could kick him to death with just my feet. Chase him!"
"Tap tap tap..." More than twenty people urged the dragon and horse to chase Gu Shuo.
As for the servant of the Fang family, he drove his horse to a carriage at the tribute place. He opened the carriage and took out a pigeon cage with three homing pigeons in it.
He took out a pen and paper and started writing quickly. The sound of horse hooves came, and two servants of the Fang family jumped off their horses:
"Third brother, what happened?"
"The ancestor's arms were cut off..." The third brother's expression changed: "Is there anyone alive in the Nan family?"
When the two servants heard that their ancestor's arms had been chopped off, their expressions were stunned. Then they heard the third brother asking, and they turned to look. At this time, people from the seven major joint trading houses were still fighting. Even though Nanji's servants and guards broke out with Nan Zhongxing, some servants and grooms did not have time to leave and hid under the carriage, shivering. The Fang family and the officers and soldiers did not take these grooms hiding under the carriage seriously at all. The most important thing for them now was to kill the servants who wanted to break out. These people were a threat, and if any of them escaped, it would be trouble. As for the grooms hiding under the carriage, they are weak chickens waiting to be slaughtered. Killing them now is a waste of time and gives those servants a chance to break out.
A servant of the Fang family rushed the horse away, and soon caught a groom and threw it to the ground. The third brother shouted:
"Who are the man and woman with Nanzhongxing?"
"Yes...he is the master's friend!"
"what is it call?"
"Gu Shuo and Shi Qingqing!"
"killed!"
The third brother immediately started writing, and a servant on the other side had already chopped off the groom's head with a knife. After writing the message quickly, he put it in a bamboo tube, tied it to the pigeon's leg, and threw each one away, and then they flew up into the air.
"Tap tap tap..."
In the wilderness, Gu Shuo, Shi Qingqing and Nan Zhongxing were running wildly. When Nan Zhongxing thought that there were now more than 200 people in Nanji Trading Company, and he was the only one left, he couldn't help but shed tears.
"Shop Manager Nan, where are we going? Go straight to Jingdu?" Gu Shuo asked.
"Jingdu is far away from here. Even if we stay awake, Longma can bear it. It will take more than ten days to travel under the stars and at night. Let's go to Lima City first, where our family's shop is. There I tell Jingdu Feige that Book."
"That's fine!"
"Thank you!"
"Tap tap tap..."
midnight.
It took Gu Shuo and the three of them to stop. They couldn't stop anymore. Ryoma could no longer run. Gu Shuo took out three pills to restore spiritual power and gave one to a horse. He didn't know whether Longma could bear it, let alone whether the pill to restore spiritual power was effective in this world. But if he had to rely on Ryoma to recover on his own, there would be too little time.
If possible, take a detour and hide first.
After observing for about a quarter of an hour, Gu Shuo was overjoyed. This elixir can really restore Ryoma's physical strength. Moreover, Ryoma liked it very much, bumping Gu Shuo with his big head and acting coquettishly.
Gu Shuo pushed the horse's head away, took a recovery pill, and then threw one to Nan Zhongxing. Shi Qingqing over there also took out a jade bottle given to her by Gu Shuo, opened it and took out one Take the elixir. Then he followed Gu Shuo to a forest and started practicing.
Although both of them were very tired, they still insisted on practicing. Both of them knew that even if they just improved their cultivation level a little bit, they would have an extra layer of security.
Now Gu Shuo's body is already at its peak, just short of perfection. It's just that although it seems that the peak and perfection are not far apart, it is very difficult. It needs a little bit of solidity.
At dawn the next day, the three men and three horses, who had recovered from the elixir, were already galloping on the road. Ryoma was extremely fast and arrived at a town at noon. The three of them were a little tired, especially Nanzhongxing, so they slowed down and said:
"Master Gu, let's go to the town to eat something and rest our horses. The braised pork in this town tastes good."
Gu Shuo nodded and said, "That's fine."
The three of them entered the town and came to a restaurant that Nanzhongxing was very familiar with. It had a small appearance. He turned over and dismounted, handed the dragon horse to the waiter at the door, and called Gu Shuo and Shi Qingqing to come in.
There were more than a dozen tables inside, and the three of them found a seat by the window. Nan Zhongxing ordered a few dishes without using a menu, but did not order any wine. Soon, the food was served. The owner of the restaurant looked at it. Lai Ye was very familiar with Nan Zhong Xing, and he even came up to chat with Nan Zhong Xing for a few words and presented him with a plate of shrimps.
The three of them remained silent and ate fiercely. Just halfway through their meal, they heard the sound of horse hooves on the streets of the town outside. Just by listening to the sound, you can tell that there are many people. The three of them, Gu Shuo, slowed down their eating speed and looked toward the door from the corner of their eyes. The sound of horse hooves stopped at the door of the hotel, and the sound of talking, laughing and shouting was heard outside the door. Then the door curtain was raised, and two people walked in. Behind these two people, there were many people walking in. . The leader shouted towards the counter:
"Shopkeeper, here are three tables of wine and food."
South Bank of China's expression changed, and he lowered his voice and said, "That's Fang Kaitong, the person in charge of the Fang family in Lima City..."
At the same time, Fang Kaitong swept his eyes across the lobby habitually, and his expression changed: "Nanzhong..."
"laugh……"
Gu Shuo waved his hand and the two chopsticks in his hand were shot out. In his haste, Fang Kaitong was too late to draw his sword and dodged, only to see the two chopsticks change their trajectory in the air.
"Puff..."
One of the two chopsticks was inserted into his eyes, the other shattered his throat, and he fell to the ground immediately. Gu Shuo's figure had already sprung up, the sword in his hand had already come out of his body, and he rushed towards the door.
The atmosphere in the restaurant instantly became heated. Swords were unsheathed, and warriors clashed with each other. The originally noisy lobby suddenly became silent, with only the sound of swords clashing. A figure flew out and knocked down the Fang family at the door, turning it into a rolling gourd.
"kill!"
Some of the more than twenty Fang family members outside the door had just dismounted. Seeing what was going on here, they shouted, and the sound of a series of swords being unsheathed tore through the air outside the door, like thousands of peaks returning to their nest, heading towards Gu Shuo. Surrounded and killed.
At this moment, Nanzhongxing also ran to the door, still feeling a little dizzy. In my heart, I admire Gu Shuo to the extreme. One moment, Gu Shuo's pair of chopsticks was holding a piece of braised pork and put it into his mouth. The next moment, it had been inserted into Fang Kaitong's eyes and throat.
This reaction is too fast!
His behavior was too decisive!
The long sword passed through the air. There were no clouds in the field of vision, but it seemed that clouds were seen. Then Shi Qingqing's figure was seen passing by Gu Shuo's side. The long sword in his hand was thrust out. Nanzhong Bank seemed to see the wind and clouds surging. In less than a breath, six corpses fell down around Gu Shuo and Shi Qingqing.
Gu Shuo and Shi Qingqing looked at each other, with surprise in their eyes.
Whether it is Qingyun Sword or Gale Sword, they are very restricted in this world. But he didn't expect that the combination of these two swordsmanships could suddenly increase their combat effectiveness more than once.
The wind and cloud come together.
"Qiang Qiang Qiang..."
The two men raised their swords again. In the space of the long street, the two long swords seemed to block the opponent's sight. Blood spurted out from the throats of those who surrounded and killed each other. Gu Shuo and Shi Qingqing had already rushed towards the street to kill. Arrived at the other side of the street. Then the two people turned around and looked at the remaining eleven. With a flash of his body, he charged towards the eleven people again.
Gu Shuo's figure was like a cloud, Shi Qingqing's figure was like the wind, and his two long swords stirred up the wind and clouds. He returned to the door of the restaurant and stood in front of Nan Zhongxing. There was a thumping sound of falling behind him. He turned around and looked, Those eleven people had fallen into a pool of blood.
"let's go!"
The three people jumped up and landed on the horses. They rushed out of the town and flew away in the dust.
Half an hour later, the town was far behind.
As the shopkeeper of Nanji, Nanzhongxing has traveled all over the country and has rich experience. Although he was grateful to Gu Shuo and Shi Qingqing, he also knew in his heart that his help to Gu Shuo and Shi Qingqing was limited. The other party had already paid back the favor by helping him. Now I still haven't abandoned him, I must ask for something. If he really didn't want what he wanted, he wouldn't dare to let these two people help him. But these two people kept silent, but he couldn't wait any longer, because he knew that if he pretended to be confused again, they would probably send him to Lima City and then leave. But will I be safe when I get to Lima City?
Won't!
So, while urging the horse, he said:
"Mr. Gu, I owe you too much this time, and I feel uneasy. Is there anything I can do for you?"
Gu Shuo really wanted to ask for something, otherwise why would he escort him all the way?
"I have three things, I just don't know which one Shopkeeper Nan can help me with."
"You say."
"First thing, I want to know the most detailed information about all the legendary places that may be the passage out of here, and about this place."
"This is not difficult, and as long as we get to the capital, with Nan Ji's strength, we can get detailed information for you without spending much energy. This is not enough to repay your life-saving grace, please tell me the second thing."
"The second item is the herbal seeds of various levels of body-tempering elixirs."
Gu Shuo looted three treasure houses, especially the treasure house in the Lord's Mansion of Lake City, and obtained elixir prescriptions of various levels. He looked at the prescriptions and found that some of the necessary herbs seemed to be unavailable outside. But I wasn’t sure, so I collected all the seeds. Now I can plant them myself even if there are none outside.
It might be a little troublesome for an outsider like Gu Shuo to collect them all, but for Nanzhong Bank, who was originally a businessman, it was really not a problem. It was just a matter of one sentence, so he shook his head and said:
"This is very simple for me. It's a matter of one sentence when we get to the capital. You tell me the third thing."
"I want a practice method that can directly lead to transcending tribulations."
"This..." Nan Zhongxing said bitterly, "I really can't do it."
"Then help me do the first two things. I'll guarantee you go to Jingdu."
"Okay!" Nan Zhongxing nodded and said, "When you get to Jingdu, I will help you inquire in the black market. Maybe you will meet him by chance."
Gu Shuo nodded, but he didn't have much hope in his heart.
There must be a lot of good stuff in a place like the black market. However, there is basically no possibility of such top-notch skills appearing on the black market.
But he knew where it was.
There must be one in the palace, but it would be a little difficult to sneak into the palace and steal the skills.
