Chapter Forty-Nine: Leaving the Kingdom of Qi

On the stargazing platform, Gu Xiao and Cao Qiudao talked happily.

This scene, if it falls in the eyes of others, it will definitely be shocked.

One is the sword saint under the sword, the enemy of the sword zhai; One is the proud protégé of Zhao Jianzhai, after these two people met, it was good that they didn't fight, and they could talk so happily, which is really incredible.

Gu Xiao didn't care what he would think if this scene fell into the eyes of others, he only knew that he hadn't chatted with someone so happily for a long time!

For a long time, as a traverser, although deep in his heart, he has always had the pride unique to a traverser, but there is still a trace of loneliness in his heart.

After all, no matter how much he likes to travel through novels, when he does start to travel through novels, he will inevitably feel lonely. That feeling, between heaven and earth, is that there is only oneself, and no one can understand it at all except himself.

At this moment, on this stargazing platform, negotiating with Cao Qiudao made him feel very happy, and the loneliness in his heart was even more rare.

After all, in essence, Cao Qiudao is also a lonely person.

The loneliest thing in this world is invincibility!

In this low-martial world, Cao Qiudao is like this, with the loneliest swordsman.

Therefore, when two lonely people meet, they can often get along very happily.

This point, whether it is Cao Qiudao or Gu Xiao, has felt it.

It's a pity that such an opportunity will only come once. Whether it is Gu Xiao or Cao Qiudao, they all know very well that sooner or later there will be a battle between them, and this battle is bound to be a decisive battle between you and me.

Faced with the next meeting, it is inevitable to separate a life-and-death enemy, Gu Xiao and Cao Qiudao have rarely let go of the burden in their hearts.

"You are really a good boy, if I met you earlier, Cao would definitely take you as an apprentice!" For a long time, Cao Qiudao said with emotion.

Hearing Cao Qiu's words, Gu Xiao said: "No, even if I came to you to apprentice, you won't accept me as an apprentice." After all, I'm from Qin! ”

Qin people! These two words hit Cao Qiudao's heart like a heavy hammer, making Cao Qiudao couldn't help but be stunned, and only after a long time did he smile bitterly: "Yes, with your identity as a Qin person, plus you are Bai Qi's grandson." If Cao had seen you at the beginning, he would have killed you! ”

Gu Xiao was silent, the reason why he would retreat to the second best place back then and choose to learn from Jianzhai was precisely because of this.

As a traverser, Gu Xiao is definitely the most incompetent traverser, because he has ignored his years of education by the party in later generations, and he has always held a narrow concept of identity in his heart.

In his view, a person's behavior and position are determined by his identity. In this life, since he is Bai Qi's grandson and a remote branch of the Qin State clan, he naturally has to serve the Qin State! In his opinion, no matter what kind of identity a person is, he should serve his position.

The so-called righteous annihilation of relatives often ends in tragedy, isn't it precisely because of this?

"Boy, aren't you planning to play for the Six Kingdoms of the East?" Cao Qiudao asked abruptly.

Gu Xiao nodded solemnly and said, "I've thought about it!" It's a pity to give up! ”

"Because of who you are?"

"Nope! It's because of the general trend of the world! ”

"The general trend of the world?" Cao Qiudao frowned, as a real swordsman, Cao Qiudao didn't know much about politics, and he didn't want to know about it. At this time, when Gu Xiao said these four words, he didn't understand what Gu Xiao was talking about.

Gu Xiao explained: "Since King Zhou Ping moved eastward, the world has been in turmoil, and for more than 500 years, there has not been a single day when the world has not been ignited by war. Five hundred years have passed, and the nearly 100 vassal states of that year have fought until now, only Qi, Chuyan, Han, Zhao, Wei, and Qin are still on the stage. ”

Cao Qiudao nodded, what Gu Xiao said was not wrong at all, he couldn't refute it at all.

Gu Xiao continued: "Over the years, the national strength of the Qin State has become stronger and stronger, and people of insight from the six countries have defected one after another, and the general trend of the world has shown a situation in which the seven heroes have returned to Qin. Even if I want to serve the six eastern countries, it is nothing more than to have one more Li Mu in this world, and it will not help at all. In this case, instead of betraying the mother country, he ended up in a broken body and a ruined reputation. So why don't I play for my home country? ”

Hearing Gu Xiao say this, Cao Qiudao's momentum skyrocketed, and the murderous aura spread out in all directions.

Even though he himself knew this, but now when he heard Gu Xiao say it, he still felt unspeakably harsh. The hilt of the sword on his waist had been tightly grasped by him, and he could draw the sword out of its sheath at any time and kill Gu Xiao on the spot.

Gu Xiao looked at the murderous Cao Qiudao, subconsciously licked his lips, and didn't say anything. To be honest, to say that he is not afraid of Cao Qiudao at all is a lie.

He knew that saying these words would definitely anger Cao Qiudao, but he still couldn't help but want to say it.

Gu Xiao believes that Cao Qiudao doesn't know these truths, but he doesn't want to admit them.

"According to what you say, the world will definitely belong to Qin?" After a long time, Cao Qiudao took his hand away from the hilt of the sword and asked quietly.

Gu Xiao bowed his head and said: "Not necessarily, but the world will be unified after all, either to Qin or to other vassal states, after all, it will be a matter of about thirty years!" ”

Cao Qiudao was silent, and after a long time, he said to Gu Xiao: "You can go!" ”

・・・・・・

"Are you alright?"

"Cao Qiudao didn't hurt you, did he?"

"Master, are you alright?"

Gu Xiao himself didn't know how he came out of the Jixia School Palace. He only knew that as soon as he walked out of the gate of the Jixia School Palace, he was immediately surrounded by people, and then a series of questions were thrown at him, making him dizzy.

"I'm fine!" After Gu Xiao came back to his senses, he found that he didn't know when, Ji Yanran, Feng Fei and others had surrounded him. Among them, Ji Yanran and Feng Fei were worried, while Zheng'er was pulling his shirt and wanted to find traces of his injuries. Seeing these three people who cared about him, Gu Xiao felt a warm current in his heart, and waved his hand, indicating that he was fine.

"Mr. Forget, I didn't do anything with you?" After hearing Gu Xiao say that he and Cao Qiudao had just met once and said a few words, Ji Yanran was surprised.

Back then, Zhao Jianzhai was cut off a finger by Cao Qiudao, and today, his apprentice actually retreated from Cao Qiudao's front intact, which is really incredible.

"It's time for us to go." After a while, Gu Xiao got rid of the entanglement of the three of them and said lightly.

Zheng'er asked, "Where to go?" Master, will we have a post house? ”

"No, we should leave the Qi Kingdom!" As soon as the words fell, Gu Xiao set his sights on the West, where there is his family, his childhood sweetheart's fiancée, and the origin of the future Chinese nation! All this attracts him all the time, attracts him to go back, and get back everything that belongs to him!
