Treachery
Yandang Peak
Dan Pavilion
Gu Changshun's room
Since Gu Changshun is now a quasi-alchemist, he is already qualified enough to assist the official alchemist in refining pills on weekdays, and he can also refine some yellow-grade pills alone, so Gu Changshun can naturally get some privileges from the Dan Pavilion, and now this single house, which is not much larger than the broken wood room where Qin Xiao lives, is the privilege that Gu Changshun has.
"Hahaha, Senior Brother Qin, come here, drink this cup, of course, you are only allowed to drink this cup, don't affect the afternoon selection. ”
At this time, in Gu Changshun's room, Qin Xiao and the three of them were all sitting around a small square table, and the exquisite meals that Gu Changshun specially asked for from the acquaintances in the dining hall were all rare dishes for Qin Xiao and others on weekdays, and Qin Xiao was salivating when he saw it.
At this time, Gu Changshun's face was full of joy, he lifted the wine pot in his hand and poured a small glass of the medicinal wine he brewed on weekdays, and then poured a large bowl into his bowl and said.
"Senior Brother Gu is too stingy, my own house is full of bowls, why do I only have such a small cup when it is my turn to be junior brother?"
Of course, Qin Xiao knew that the other party was for his own good and didn't want to let himself drink and make mistakes, but he still couldn't help frowning, and at the same time pinched the thumb-sized wine glass in his hand and said with a smile.
"Don't talk nonsense, drink this cup and don't want to get another drop of wine from me. ”
Gu Changshun didn't wait for Qin Xiao to speak, he drank the wine in his bowl in one go, and after drinking, he shook his head and took a sip of aftertaste.
"Oh, it seems that today is not a blessing to get a cup of senior brother's wine. ”
Qin Xiao pretended to shake her head with regret on her face and said, then raised her head and drank the wine in the thumb-sized cup, and at the same time shook her head and shook her head to taste the taste of the wine in Gu Changshun's appearance.
Qin Xiao in the previous life was not good at drinking, except for drinking a little beer with a low degree when he got together with friends, he rarely drank alcohol in his life, and although Qin Xiao in this life was also not good at drinking, the wine brewed by Gu Changshun was fragrant and fragrant, and the entrance was smooth and sweet, even he occasionally missed the taste of this wine.
"Senior brother can rest assured, when the junior brother wins the first place in this selection, senior brother and I will give all the wine to the junior brother as a congratulatory gift. ”
As the saying goes, if wine is not drunk, everyone is drunk, at this time, Gu Changshun had just drunk a bowl of wine and was already a little drunk, and he was a little arrogant when he spoke.
"Senior Brother Gu, you just let Xiaocha drink a small cup, just a small cup, I will never be greedy for a cup of Xiaocha. ”
Sitting on the side and drinking the small tea in the cup of tea, seeing that Qin Xiao and Gu Changshun were drinking so deliciously, they suddenly felt that the tea in the cup was bland and tasteless, and they were even more curious about the taste in this wine in their hearts, especially the wine brewed by Gu Changshun smelled full of medicinal fragrance, and it was even more of a small tea that was about to move, so he asked Gu Changshun pitifully.
"That's not good, Xiaocha, you're still young, and drinking alcohol will hurt you. ”
As he spoke, Gu Changshun poured a full bowl of wine into his bowl, raised his head and drank it again, and then said with a smile after taking a sip of the exquisite dishes on the plate.
"Senior Brother Gu is right, Xiaocha, you are still young, if Senior Brother Gu is still stingy with his wine in two years, Brother Xiao will be the first to disagree. ”
Seeing that Xiaocha was rejected by Gu Changshun with a pitiful look, Qin Xiao felt very interesting, so he helped on the side.
"Hmph, Brother Xiao is obviously not a few years older than me, why can Brother Xiao drink tea, but he can't. ”
Seeing that Gu Changshun and Qin Xiao were still perfunctory with the old excuses, Xiaocha muttered a little unhappily.
"After Xiao Cha successfully enters the forging realm, Senior Brother will let you drink him. ”
Just when Qin Xiao wanted to continue to tease Xiao Cha, Gu Changshun suddenly put down the wine bowl in his hand and said to Xiao Cha with a serious expression, and then turned his head and said to Qin Xiao sincerely.
"When Senior Brother Qin successfully enters the outer gate to practice advanced martial arts, and he becomes a master like Senior Brother Li Tienan and Senior Brother Li one day, we will drink him here, and from now on, Senior Brother will always prepare wine for the two of you in the house, and no matter how far you go, Senior Brother will always prepare it for you. ”
After a few bowls of wine, coupled with joy and gratitude, Gu Changshun was drunk, and Gu Pan became more and more arrogant, but his sincere words made Qin Xiao and Xiaocha very moved.
The hour of noon trimming was fleeting, Qin Xiao had not lost much physical strength, and after enjoying the meal prepared by Gu Changshun in Gu Changshun's room, the three of them went to Baihe Peak again to prepare for the afternoon competition.
Although Gu Changshun was a little drunk at this time, he had the strength of the second realm of forging the body, if it weren't for the fact that he was more interested in Dan Dao, so he had never practiced the technique of attacking, if it weren't for this, it would not be a big problem to enter the top five in this selection with his strength. Even Liu Hong, who is in the second realm of forging body with him, is afraid that he is lower than Gu Changshun in terms of cultivation, after all, even the forging realm is divided into small and large successes. Therefore, although Gu Changshun was drunk at this time, the pace under his feet was still as steady as before.
The three of them soon arrived at the selection venue outside the White Crane Peak, and at this time, a large number of people had already gathered, and in a few moments, the second round of selection and duel would begin again.
"Brother Xiao wants to come on, and Xiaocha is waiting for the day when she can drink with Brother Xiao. ”
After the three of them walked quickly to the edge of the No. 5 ring where Qin Xiao was, the three of them stopped together, and everyone watching the battle was about to stop here, and then Xiao Cha stared at Qin Xiao with a pair of beautiful big eyes and said seriously.
"Yes, Senior Brother knows that you are very strong, but don't take it lightly. ”
Gu Changshun, whose faces were still a little red, and Qin Xiao said with some bitterness, for fear that Qin Xiao would think that his strength was high and that he would capsize in the gutter.
"Rest assured, you two, I won't lose. ”
Seeing the concerned and worried looks of the two, Qin Xiao hurriedly made a confident expression to appease the two of them, then smiled and waved his hand and went closer to the ring to wait for the start of the selection.
A moment later, Chi Yan's tall and straight figure appeared in everyone's eyes for the second time, only to see that he still nodded to everyone with his trademark warm smile, which was regarded as a greeting, and then jumped into the center of the ring with his feet lightly and announced to everyone.
"The second round of selection is the beginning of the match"
"Group 1"
"Qin Xiao vs. Cui Hui"
Immediately, Chi Yan began to announce the disciples who would have the next duel, and this time Qin Xiao didn't expect that he would be the first group of people to go to the stage to duel, but this is better for him, if he can solve it earlier, he can also go to see the duel in other rings, and the other person who was called by name was full of frustration at this time, as for the others, after secretly breathing a sigh of relief, at the same time cast a gloating look at the disciple named Cui Hui.
There was no surprise to Qin Xiao in the whole process, and the disciple who reluctantly attacked Qin Xiao did not leave a deep impression on himself like Ding Wenliang or Ren E, Qin Xiao easily eliminated the opponent and entered the next round of the duel with his overwhelming strength.
"It doesn't seem that if you end the duel, you must stay in the ring and wait for all the duels to end. ”
Qin Xiao, who easily defeated his opponent, thought of it boringly, not to mention that the duel of Ding Wenliang he was interested in was also ranked very late, and after carefully observing a few other duels, he found that the strength of most of the candidates was basically the same, neither Ren E's superb martial arts nor Ding Wenliang's strange and strange.
Qin Xiao first turned around and tried to find Gu Changshun and the others in the crowd, but there were too many onlookers on the periphery, and even with Qin Xiao's eyesight at this time, he didn't see the two of them.
Immediately, Qin Xiao slowly left the No. 5 ring with steps, and walked to the No. 6 ring closest to him, ready to see if there would be any disciples like Ren E and Ding Wenliang who were as interesting or admired as among the other participating disciples in the ring.
When Qin Xiao walked towards the No. 6 ring with casual steps, the other candidates beside him just glanced at him in surprise but didn't say much. And Chi Yan in the ring naturally noticed Qin Xiao's actions, but he just glanced at it casually and didn't care. The onlookers on the periphery saw Qin Xiao walking towards them, and they all naturally made way for them.
Ring No. 6 was only a hundred steps away from Ring No. 5, Qin Xiao quickly arrived at Ring No. 6 with a leisurely pace, and when Qin Xiao saw the scene in the ring at this time, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and then his face showed an extremely surprised face.
"This ...... How is this possible!"
I saw that at this time, among the two duelists on the No. 6 ring, there was a figure that Qin Xiao could not have imagined no matter what, it was Li Sheng, who had not met Qin Xiao for a long time.
Moreover, Li Sheng's temperament in the ring at this time was completely different from Qin Xiao's memory, if it weren't for the same face, Qin Xiao would almost not be able to associate the current person with the obscene and despicable appearance in his memory.
At this time, Li Sheng's temperament in the ring was gloomy, and a pair of fine eyes flashed from time to time, and if you looked closely, you could find that Li Sheng's body at this time was several points taller and stronger than before, and the temperament of the whole person had undergone a earth-shaking change from before.
In the ring, Li Shengzheng was fighting with a disciple, and in Qin Xiao's eyes, the suspense of this duel had long been lost. The two of them used the same martial arts in the Liutang Fist, and the originally peaceful Liutang Fist was used in Li Sheng's hands with a bit of evil spirit.
At this time, Li Sheng had a sneer with a hint of evil intent on the corner of his mouth, like an old cat teasing his prey, that is, he did not let his opponent lose easily, and constantly left scars of different sizes on his opponent's body. And his opponent has been in a state of exhaustion, even if there is an occasional opportunity to counterattack, it will be easily avoided by Li Sheng, Qin Xiao can see that those so-called opportunities are also deliberately left by Li Sheng to his opponent, in order to probably have more fun before the decisive victory.
"Senior Brother Qin, what are you looking at again?"
Qin Xiao, who was observing Li Sheng with serious eyes, suddenly heard Song Dezheng's voice behind him.
