Chapter 170: Pure Heart Sword

At the beginning, Gu Xi only thought that Guan Huan had accidentally met a friend from Dongping, similar to a caravan or something, and he had no scruples about leaving Xiling, after all, the Daoming Sect Eagle Hall was powerful, and he stayed incognito in Xiling, and was it really safe to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests? The small sect that was the trigger for all events is a good counterexample. But hiding in the carriage and following Ye Tao and the others for a while, Gu Xi immediately felt wrong. Although it was true that there were many people in the team who were not from Middle-earth, and it really looked like they were an expedition led by the daughter of a Frankish master, as they left the city and ran on the roads, the actions of the guards began to show their bottom. Is there any caravan or expedition that needs scouts and wingmen? Moreover, although the horses and weapons of the guards sent out had been carefully selected and there were no flaws, the monoculars in the soft leather bags at their waists exposed their details too extravagantly. Since Ye Tao has never had his hands free to make glass, let alone optical glass, the monoculars produced by Bosch Tools are all made of natural crystal lenses, and the price is simply outrageous. Of course, this is only the price for sale, and when the Dongping military purchases it in bulk, Ye Tao will give a full discount. Only then did Gu Xi begin to understand that the people this team wanted to protect were much more important than he imagined. And Guan Huan, a person who is always giggling and not serious, I am afraid that his contacts are much more extensive than what he shows in front of the martial arts people in Xiling. But even so, Gu Xi did not doubt what Guan Huan's motive was for promising to get rid of Pan Jue. Because, if Guan Huan really came to Xiling for some purpose, he would not pay attention to him as a non-famous quasi-first-class swordsman in martial arts, he would have the opportunity to make friends with those martial arts people who were very energetic, and he would not make so much trouble in order to help him spread the message and protect his family.

How did the nickname "Pure Heart Sword" come about? On the one hand, it is because the martial arts practiced by Gu Xi are stable and stable. When the sword was released, it seemed that there was no trace of fireworks, on the other hand, it was also because Gu Xi and them had always diluted and were lazy to quarrel with the rivers and lakes. And this time, he couldn't hold back for a while, and just got involved in the dispute, Gu Xi's family couldn't stay in Xiling, I'm afraid he will be more determined to implement the position of non-interference in the future. But Gu Xi knew that his future path could certainly rely on Guan Huan, but I was afraid it would depend more on the adults their family was protecting. The reason why martial arts people can practice martial arts is that their families have some industrial land. Otherwise, it can't afford to supply the cost of martial arts at all, and the rules of passage for the poor and rich in martial arts will not change even in this time and space. Gu Xi knew that their family was afraid that they would have to stay in Dongping for a long time, and it was even very likely that they would have to take Dongping as their home in the future, and they would lose their property in Xiling, so they would have to make a living, and they couldn't really go to rob their homes. And Gu Xi knows better that compared to Xiling, who is slack in governance in some places. Dongping, who won the country as a warlord, had a tougher attitude towards local stability and the rule of officials, and it was almost harsh. In recent years, those famous thieves in the martial arts did not even dare to enter the territory of Dongping, because once their location was known to the local government, hundreds of people were dispatched to round up one or two people. It is a fitness activity that the garrisons around the country with strict training in Dongping like very much.

With such a thought, and then carefully observing the team, Gu Xi soon found that the core of the entire team was Guo Fen, the recorder and handyman he had previously misled into thinking was Miss Sophie. Is there such a young minister in Dongping? Yes...... The answer jumped into Gu Xidi's mind at once. And this answer really scared him. Ye Tao's outstanding performance in politics, economics and military. is not known in the world, but Ye Tao's identity as the world's first craftsman is known to everyone. Gu Xike didn't naively think that Ye Tao would really come to Xiling to travel to visit and broaden his knowledge because he was the first craftsman in the world and the master of the Dongping royal family, although he didn't know what Ye Tao came for, but he must have a heavier responsibility. And seeing Ye Tao chatting with the guards shoulder to shoulder without any shackles, and even sitting next to the coachman playing the harmonica to add a relaxed and comfortable color to their tense schedule, Ye Tao should be a very easy person to deal with.

The actual journey was faster than expected, probably because the road from Shunyi City to the east was better than they expected. They set off early in the morning. Except for a break for half an hour at noon, the road was running non-stop. And the team, which was composed entirely of riders and four-wheeled carriages, and had the intention of hurrying up, it was not uncommon for them to run nearly two hundred miles in just one day.

When it came time to camp on the edge of a river beach at night, Gu Xi noticed that this team was so different even when camped. The carriages served as the outermost barriers, while in the inner ring, the elaborate carriages carrying passengers had the partitions at the back of the carriages flipped open to reveal folded tents. Just a dozen of a few tent nails. It naturally shelters from the wind and rain, and the passengers sleep in the carriage. Warm and cozy.

After Gu Xi settled his family, he walked to the place surrounded by the carriages of Ye Tao, Dai Qiuyan and Sophie. Seeing Gu Xi's somewhat hesitant expression, Ye Tao greeted with a smile: "Mr. Gu, is there something wrong?" ”

Gu Xi took a few steps closer, and Zhou Rui moved a little place for him on the edge of the raised bonfire, spread a thick felt mat on the ground, motioned for him to sit down, and turned his head to continue rummaging his barbecue. After they set up camp, Zhou Rui just casually went to the grove on the side, and he was captured, and a wild boar that was not yet an adult was enough for the whole team to feast.

"My lord, I thank you for your rescue this time. Great kindness, toothless and unforgettable. Gu Xi bowed deeply at Ye Tao.

Ye Tao smiled and said, "Mr. Gu, please take a seat." With Guan Huan's ability, the night after tomorrow, Pan Jue will inevitably be headed. …… Since Mr. Gu has already guessed, then I will formally introduce myself, I am Ye Tao. ”

Ye Tao's name is enough. Gu Xi bowed deeply to Ye Tao again before sitting down on the felt mat.

"My lord, how did Guan Huan know my lord?" Gu Xi raised his own questions.

"Guan Huan is my eldest brother's cousin, and he has known me since I was a child. He's just a few years older than me. Ye Tao said.

Gu Xi was taken aback. Whether it is with Guan Huan's super skills or Ye Tao's relationship, Guan Huan can easily get a good job in Dongping, but why does this guy rely on the martial arts with no tricks? Is it really a good martial arts idiot? Based on Gu Xi's understanding of Guan Huan, he feels that Guan Huan is not that kind of person.

"By the way, is Guan Huan really famous?" Ye Tao looked at Gu Xi's expression and felt that there must be something strange in it.

"Famous...... It's so famous. Gu Xi said with a wry smile: "Now that the heroes are rising, a large number of masters have been recruited by the imperial courts of various countries, and the rivers and lakes have declined, and in this declining rivers and lakes, Guan Huan is the absolute number one master among the younger generation." Even in the entire martial arts, he is also a good player. At the beginning, he was called 'Quick Knife' Guan Huan because the knife was too fast; Later, he changed to a thick-backed chopping knife, not so fast, and became fond of using force to reduce skill, everyone called him 'Badao' Guan Huan; for a while, he used a different knife almost every time against the enemy, everyone called him 'Change Knife' Guan Huan; because he was sensitive, even if his martial arts skills were better than his, he was often used by him to win in various ways, and everyone called him again' This time he came to Xiling, he usually used a thick-backed chopping knife when he faced the enemy, only when he really encountered an enemy who pierced his hands, he replaced it with a strange-looking knife, and insisted that it was a sword...... Therefore, everyone began to call him 'Strange Knife' Guan Huan again. My lord, don't you know, the rivers and lakes are like this, even if someone pulls out a chopstick and says it's a sword, as long as he really wins, everyone will touch their noses and admit it. …… Guan Huan has the ability, and he has all kinds of tricks that are used as talking points for everyone, and he can't think of being famous. However, I really didn't expect that Guan Huan and adults would have this relationship. ”

"This guy is so funny, I've been used to it for a long time." Listening to Gu Xi's witty words, Ye Tao smiled.

"My lord, I'm afraid I won't be able to return to Xiling in the short term, and I have to take care of the family...... Can you give me a clear way? After chatting for a while, Gu Xi asked with some hesitation.

"Mr. Gu, this is not difficult...... But do you have any requirements? Or do you have any scruples? If you don't want to serve in the Dongping Imperial Court system, I can also recommend other jobs for you. Asking you to go to the home care home is a bit overkill; However, the major trading companies, going south and north, will inevitably encounter various problems, and always hope that there will be a master in charge, I am afraid that it will be more difficult. Ye Tao replied.

Gu Xi's request sounded a little rude to the guards around him. In their opinion, if Gu Xi has the heart to join Ye Tao, then express his allegiance, or don't say such things. But in Ye Tao's opinion, this is as normal as his original era, when everyone was chatting, someone who happened to be unemployed asked who had a suitable offer to recommend.

"At the command of your lord...... Now the power of the Daoming Sect is all over the government and the opposition, which is really not the luck of the people of Xiling. Gu Xi said.

"That's very good." Ye Tao nodded. Gu Xi is a quasi-first-class master, and he is not very old, so he has a lot of room for development in terms of ability, whether it is recommended to the Intelligence Bureau to contribute to the various deployments against Xiling in the future, or recommended to the Lei Yin Demon Sect to become a member of the guardian force, in order to deal with the conflicts that will inevitably arise between the Daoming Sect in the future, they are all quite good candidates.
