Chapter 149: They are all people in the rivers and lakes
"We don't want to do anything, we just want to prove it." Xu Xi said lightly, "Isn't this a place where only people from the rivers and lakes can stay?" I just don't know if we're qualified enough now? ”
As soon as these words came out, several people looked at each other.
One of them also hurriedly said: "Hey, it's really the water that washed the Dragon King Temple, and the family doesn't know the family." Since the two girls are both from the rivers and lakes, they can naturally sit on this side, and no one can stop them. ”
"Yes, yes, yes."
The other people also hurriedly echoed and said, feeling that Xu Xi and Gu Chaoci were really unprovoked.
But just said such a sentence, and began to draw the knife, if this is really provoked, then pay it back?
I'm afraid that in the next second, it should be a sword confrontation and a big fight.
"You are also from the rivers and lakes, just say it, why do you still draw a knife?" The person who was given the knife by Xu Xi asked a little unconvinced.
Xu Xi also took back the dagger in his hand at this time, inserted it into the scabbard, and then replied: "If I don't do this, won't I be able to convince you?" I don't want to talk nonsense, since it can be proved with practical actions, then it's better to do it a little more, what do you do with more words? ”
What's more, her previous profession was a cold killer, which has always been a little talk when performing tasks, as long as she acts and completes the task.
As for the dying man's last words, I'm sorry, it's completely out of their mind.
Therefore, since these people seem to be very difficult people to provoke, then it is the right way to directly attack them, deter them, and show their abilities.
Otherwise, even if it is a waste of lips and tongues to say that they are people in the rivers and lakes, they will only be despised by them, and the gains outweigh the losses.
In this way, it is the best way to solve things.
Hearing Xu Xi say this, the person who was stabbed by Xu Xi's knife suddenly didn't know what to say.
opened his mouth and ended up saying nothing.
Anyway, this is already the case, and Xu Xi is also very correct, if Xu Xi is not like this, they really won't think that they are capable people, at most they can do some three-legged cat kung fu.
Therefore, Xu Xi's words, they really can't refute it, don't they think so in their hearts?
Seeing this, Gu Chaoci pulled Xu Xi's arm with a smile, then chose a better position, sat down, and ignored these people.
Now, after such a fuss, after a little delay, the sky is also slightly brightened, and it seems that the sunrise will soon be visible.
The other people saw that Xu Xi and Gu Chaoci were just sitting there, and they didn't want to do anything, so they immediately relaxed and began to discuss some things about this martial arts conference.
"I heard that this martial arts conference is a little different from previous years."
"What's the difference? Didn't you hear something? ”
"I don't really know the specific things, I just heard that the reason why this martial arts conference will be held in Nanzhao City this time is actually for a treasure map."
"Treasure map?"
"Yes, and I heard that the place marked on this treasure map is not very far from this Nanzhao City, so the location of the martial arts conference will be changed to this Nanzhao City."
"If that's the case, could it be that this is to gather many martial arts people to find treasure?"
"Nine times out of ten, that's right."
"If that's the case, then it might really make sense, I heard that this martial arts conference, even Jinghu Palace was invited."
"In previous years' martial arts conferences, Jinghu Palace was also invited, what's so strange about this?"
"No, I heard that this time I invited the palace master of Mirror Lake Palace."
"Do you mean that this time, the palace master of the Mirror Lake Palace, who has seen the head and tail of the perennial dragon, will come to participate in this martial arts conference?"
In the past, the martial arts conferences were only the head of the Mirror Lake Palace, or the disciples went to participate, which can be regarded as meaningful, could it be that this time, it was possible to see the palace master of the Mirror Lake Palace?
"I don't know about this, but I heard that this invitation is specially written to invite the palace master of Jinghu Palace to come, but it is a little different from the previous invitations, but whether this person will come, this is really unknown, after all, I heard that the palace master of Jinghu Palace is actually not a pure person in the rivers and lakes, and behaves perversely, who knows what he will do and what he thinks."
"That's true."
Xu Xi and Gu Chaoci sat there, listening to these people talking about the purpose of this martial arts conference and some things about the Mirror Lake Palace, but they didn't mean to interject.
But listening to the discussion of these people, you can know that these people don't know that the palace master of Jinghu Palace is the protector pillar of the Northern Yan Kingdom, the current national teacher.
"Sure enough, I guessed correctly, the people from Jinghu Palace will also come this time, and the person specially invited is still the National Teacher, so I think I will definitely come." Gu Chaoci whispered and said with a smile to Xu Xi.
The teasing meaning in the words made Xu Xi can't help but want to give her a roll of the eyes.
"Sunrise." Xu Xi said suddenly.
Gu Chaoci also turned his head intently to look at the past, and sure enough, the sun rose from the east, passed through the clouds, and shone on the earth, such a scene was really beautiful.
It was not in vain that they did not sleep in the middle of the night and climbed to the top of this mountain.
The fatigue of not sleeping this night seems to be about to dissipate, which makes people feel a little refreshed. I guess I really think this trip is worth the money.
However, when the sunrise is over and after going down the mountain, you have to make up for sleep when you return to the inn, otherwise, where will there be any other energy to continue tossing at night?
"Sure enough, such a sunrise is the most beautiful." Gu Chaoci said with a smile.
"Okay, now that I've finished reading, it's time to go back and catch up on sleep." Xu Xi was also in a good mood and said.
She hadn't seen such a sunrise for a long time, she didn't have the time and energy in her previous life, and more importantly, she didn't expect it when she had no one to watch it with her.
In this life, it seems to be a good thing to watch such a sunrise with you.
"Well, let's go, go back and catch up on sleep." Gu Chaoci stretched and said.
Then the two of them went down the hill, walked back to the inn, returned to their room, and began to rest.
With such a break, another day has passed.
Of course, the good time of the evening is still used to wave, but tonight they have no intention of spending the whole night. After all, if it's all night this night, not to mention physically exhausted, I still have to participate in the martial arts conference tomorrow, so it's natural to nourish my spirit.
After all, I don't know what to announce or discuss at this martial arts conference, but even Pei Huai, the palace master of Jinghu Palace, invited him, so it naturally shows that the things discussed at this martial arts conference must be a bit big.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have invited powerful people everywhere like this.
I heard that even a one-armed master like Dugu Feng in the north, and Nan Mida in the south were also invited, so this martial arts conference can be said to be a gathering of masters.
Because of this, where do they dare to appear at such a conference when they are sick?
Therefore, it is very important to nourish your spirit! At the very least, if it's time to fight, the sword can still be handled, right?
It is also saved that when the time comes, they will know that it is a soft persimmon, just like last night on the top of the mountain, without showing their hands, they really think they are easy to bully.
"Where are we going tonight? It is said that the fireworks will be set off in the same way tonight, should we go to the Fan Hua Temple to see with our own eyes how they are set off? ”
Out of the inn, Gu Chaoci looked at the crowded street outside with bright eyes, and asked Xu Xi behind him.
What's so nice about this fireworks? If you want to know how these fireworks are set off, no one knows better than her, a modern person.
However, Xu Xi would not say this to Gu Chaoci, after all, it is not easy to explain why she knows these things.
He changed the topic and asked, "Have you studied the remnants of the fireworks you brought back yesterday?" ”
I don't know if this Gu Chaoci already knows how this fireworks are configured, how good the proportions are inside, and what things need to be placed.
However, if you believe in those things, Gu Chaoci will definitely have them, after all, the main ingredient contained in this gunpowder will be involved in the alchemy.
Therefore, Cheng Sanyuan must have it, otherwise it would not be able to support Gu Chaoci's research on firearms.
So now let's study this so-called fireworks, it's really a normal thing.
I believe that Gu Chaoci's master will definitely support it.
Gu Chaoci just shook his head slightly, and said: "I haven't started studying yet, besides, there are some tools lacking here, and it's not easy to study anything, so let's wait for tomorrow's martial arts conference to end, let's go back and study this thing again." Now research can't come up with a reason. ”
"That's right, after all, it's not like you can just put it in the water and you can get the fuel you need." Xu Xi said approvingly.
"That's the reason." Gu Chaoci nodded and said.
At this time, who would it be that the person he met head-on, wasn't it Zhang Youmin?
I really didn't expect that this Zhang Youmin seems to be a bit ghostly, or is it really fateful? How can you run into it every time?
With so many people coming and going on the street, it's not easy to meet a familiar person.
But being able to meet this Zhang Youmin three times or twice, Xu Xi and Gu Chaoci didn't know how to describe what they were thinking and feeling in their hearts at this moment.
But I remember that Zhang Youmin seemed to have said last night that his family was also in the capital, so if they returned to the capital in the future, would they meet again?
