Although the outline of the rock had already appeared in the sight of the two, they had been galloping for a long time before they reached the city, passing by two villages on the way.

Although the village can be surrounded by walls, there are soldiers around, and it should be a place for the army to garrison. Behind the village, there were endless wheat fields and livestock farms, and Gu Qiuyu knew that these villages were there to provide and defend the huge city with the food it needed.

The city is huge, with a population of no less than 200,000 and an astronomical amount of food, and these villages only meet the most basic needs, and more food needs to be supplied by the whole country.

After walking for about an hour, the two finally came to the foot of the rock city, Gu Qiuyu was on horseback, raised his head, looked up at the tall city wall, and was shocked.

"This city wall is no less than six feet, such a high wall, where did you get so many stones?"

Lu Shu beside him smiled slightly, and pointed to the mound where the two of them stopped to watch just now, "Do you see there? ”

Gu Qiuyu was speechless, admiring in his heart that the founding emperor of the Shi Kingdom would have such courage and financial resources, no wonder everyone in the world wanted to be an emperor, what would it be like to see such a huge city in his own hands?

"You two, dismount quickly and go into the city, and do not stop there. Just as he was sighing, the guards at the city gate came over.

Lu Shu smiled awkwardly and said politely, "Master Jun, let's go into the city." Then, he smiled mysteriously at Gu Qiuyu, "Horseback riding is not allowed in the city, you better come down." With that, he led the horse and left.

"Sir, where are you going?" Gu Qiuyu saw that he seemed to be leaving, so he dismounted and chased after a few steps.

"It's a long road, and it's a blessing to have a virtuous brother to accompany you. Although the world is big, you and I will still meet, looking forward to it, hahahaha......" said that, the person disappeared into the vast crowd and disappeared.

"Sir, your horse money ......"

In the crowd, where is there still Lu Shi's figure, Gu Qiuyu looked at the crowd, and his heart was full of flavors.

"This Lu Shi's identity is mysterious, and he is helping me in the Lingbao Sect, but I don't know what his intentions are, hey, I still know too little. ”

Gu Qiuyu looked at this majestic giant city, let go of the doubts in his heart, and said with a firm gaze, "This rock city is the first step of my revenge!"

Then, leading the horse, he followed the crowd into the city.

Entering the city, there are two fortresses, and there are soldiers guarding the fortress, and the fortress is the sound of practice. After walking for a while, I saw a big road.

Dozens of roads paved with green bricks extend to all parts of the city, and there are not too many shops on both sides of the street, most of them are residential. In the distance, the Imperial Palace of Stone Kingdom stands high in the middle of the city.

Gu Qiuyu inspected for a week, and said in his heart, "This rock city is not particularly prosperous compared to Fusang City, but the area is too large, and the bluestone road is twice as wide as the road in Fusang City." ”

After leading the horse around the city for a while, Gu Qiuyu found another problem - he didn't know where his uncle's house was, and he asked a few people on the way, but those people shook their heads and didn't know, and turned around and left in a panic.

"Could it be that what can happen? The Lin family is a big family in Shiguo, how could they not know? Or did they deliberately hide it from me?" Gu Qiuyu led the horse and walked aimlessly.

Before I knew it, I had walked into the middle of the houses.

"You kid stealing again!See I don't break your dog's legs?!"

Suddenly, two figures broke into Gu Qiuyu's sight, one of them was younger, holding a few steamed buns in his arms, and ran in a panic. The other man chased after him with a wooden stick in his hand, and cursed incessantly.

This is a dead end, the young man who stole things saw that there was no way ahead, and he stopped calmly, and the man behind him chased after him, and without saying a word, he picked up the stick in his hand and beat it, "Tell you kid to steal, Lao Tzu will break your legs!"

Gu Qiuyu saw that the young man who stole things had a weak face and ragged clothes. Unable to bear it, he walked up a few steps and caught the stick with his hand.

As soon as the man who beat the man saw that the wooden stick was being caught, his eyes stood up, and he glared at Gu Qiuyu angrily, "There is still a helper?

It's no wonder that the man recognized Gu Qiuyu as an accomplice, at this time he was wearing cloth clothes, and he was still a little dusty, so he couldn't see his extraordinary bearing at all.

Gu Qiuyu was not angry, he was still smiling slightly, but the strength of his hand was not reduced, the man broke free twice and saw no reaction, and he retreated a little in his heart, but he didn't want to give in, so he was stalemate there, completely looking like a Hanzhou person.

"How much are these steamed buns, I paid for him. "Gu Qiu Yu Road.

"One penny, counting what he stole two days ago, is a total of three pennies. The man who beat the man saw that Gu Qiuyu wanted to pay, and his tone was much more relaxed.

Gu Qiuyu nodded, and took out a small string of copper coins from his arms, "Here, this is Shiwen, don't hurt him in the future." ”

When the man saw the money, he didn't want the wooden stick in his hand, he caught it with both hands, and thanked Gu Qiuyu again and again.

"Fart!Hou Wu, if you want to be shameless, I'll take you a few steamed buns, you care if I want three cents? People give you ten wen, are you embarrassed to take it all?" The young man who stole the thing suddenly pointed at the man and scolded loudly.

When Hou Wuyi heard this, his face turned red, and he said with a strong confidence, "How many times did you kid steal my things? Besides, I only need three articles, but this son gave me ten articles, I don't want them, is it stupid?" As he spoke, his eyes also aimed at Gu Qiuyu from time to time, for fear that Gu Qiuyu would regret it.

The more Gu Qiu listened, the more wrong he became, didn't this Hou Wu's implication mean that he was stupid? He shook his head and said, "Okay, the money has been received, you can go." ”

Hou Wu thanked him again, took the money and trotted all the way and disappeared, leaving only the young man who stole the things to sit in place and glare.

"What's your name, how old are you this year?" Gu Qiuyu came to the young man's side and asked gently.

Who knew that the young man picked up the steamed bun that had just fallen to the ground, turned around and left, "My name is Meng Jingchu, eighteen this year, your three papers...... No, I'll pay you back. ”

Gu Qiuyu looked at this somewhat stubborn young man strangely, and said with a smile, "This rock city is so big, and you don't keep my name, where are you going to find me in the future?"

The young man's figure was stunned, he thought Gu Qiuyu was telling the truth, and looked at him with a little embarrassment, "What's your name? Isn't it just ten cents?

"Hahaha, I see that you are a little unsteady when you walk, and there is nothing else on your body except this life, how will you repay my money in the future?" Gu Qiuyu laughed and continued to tease.

When the young man heard this, he immediately became angry, threw the steamed bun in his arms on the ground, and Gu Qiuyu, who was angry, said, "What does Mr. mean? Although he helped me, he insulted me, I was incompetent, but I was not humiliated by others." I have no strengths, but I still have this pile of stinky meat, if Mr. wants it, take it, I will never frown!"

Gu Qiuyu saw the young man's resolute eyes, and didn't feel stunned for a moment, and then, "Haha" laughed, walked over, kicked the steamed buns on the ground aside, and said, "Have ambition, this steamed bun is really tasteless, throw it away, go, I'll take you to eat better." As he spoke, he patted Meng Jingchu's shoulder and led the horse out.

Meng was shocked to look at Gu Qiuyu's back, and his heart swayed, not knowing what this person's intentions were.

"What's the matter, are you scared, where is all the guts just now?" Gu Qiuyu said without replying.

Meng was shocked and kept up with Gu Qiuyu, but he didn't know that his decision changed his life in the future, but the reality was not the same? How many people did not just care about eating enough, but embarked on a road that did not know the result.

In Rock City, in a restaurant, Gu Qiuyu looked at the young man who was gobbling up in front of him, and was in a trance, the young man was somewhat similar to him at the beginning.

"What about your parents?"

"Dead!" the boy did not lift his head, and continued to eat the food on the table, as if he were talking about something inconsequential.

Gu Qiuyu didn't have too many surprises, when he saw the young man's eyes, he had already guessed, "How did you die?"

"Someone killed. ”

"Who killed him?"

It was only at this time that Meng Jingchu stopped, although he didn't want to say it, but because of Gu Qiuyu's grace in inviting him to dinner, he had to say three words very reluctantly, "Black Wind Mountain." ”

Gu Qiuyu is no stranger to these three words, and in the days when he got along with Lu Shi, he heard him mention it.

This Black Wind Mountain is located a hundred miles away from Rock City, it was originally a barren mountain, ten years ago, a group of people came out of nowhere to occupy the mountain, and then they started to rob the house.

At first, Shi Guo didn't care too much, because this Black Wind Mountain still understands the rules, as long as you have money, you won't hurt your life.

It wasn't until later, when the cottage boss was killed in the wild, that Black Wind Mountain became violent, and even injured a few lives.

The news soon reached the ears of the local defenders, leading hundreds of soldiers to attack, but the robbers on the Black Wind Mountain relied on the power of the terrain and entangled with the soldiers.

At this moment, Black Wind Mountain sent the murderer to the leader, and promised not to rob people and property again, pay offerings to the defenders every year, etc., and the defenders heard about it and went back.

In Shiguo, the folk martial arts are encouraged, but when it comes to the following, it is often some things that are also tolerated by the robbery of houses.

When he heard what Meng Jingchu said, he couldn't help but connect him with what happened three years ago.

Meng Jingchu couldn't help but miss his parents in his heart after mentioning it just now, his eyes were red, and he couldn't eat the food, and then looked at Gu Qiuyu, only to see him frowning and silent, thinking that he was afraid of the name of Black Wind Mountain, and he was too frightened to speak.

"What's the matter, aren't you avenging your family revenge, why are you crying again?" Gu Qiuyu asked out loud when he saw the young man like this.

"Where did I report it? What I saw that day was real, it was obviously the current head of Black Wind Mountain who killed my parents with his own hands, and then that one was just a scapegoat!"

"Oh, and how did you get out?"

"That day, I was covered up by the corpses of my family, and the robbers saw that they had robbed a lot of money, and they didn't search much, so they hurried up the mountain to drink, and only then did they escape......

Meng said in surprise, but he couldn't cry anymore, and the tragic scene appeared in his mind again.

Gu Qiuyu didn't speak, this young man's experience was not much different from his, and he couldn't help but stir up the fire of revenge in his heart.

"How have you come here in the past three years?" Gu Qiuyu calmed down, looked at Meng Jingchu, who was still sobbing there, and asked.

The young man sighed and said slowly, "After escaping that day, I came to a village not far away, and was adopted by an old man, although it was very hard every day, but it was still three years, until a month ago, the old man died of illness, and the house was taken by his son, and I had nowhere to stay, so I had to come to this rocky city, and lived by begging and stealing every day. ”

"What are you going to do in the future?"

Gu Qiuyu and Meng Jingchu's experience was roughly the same, but the former was lucky, not only did he have martial arts, but also had relatives in Shiguo, while the latter could only barely survive, and revenge was even more out of reach.

Meng was shocked to look at Gu Qiuyu and smiled a little self-deprecatingly, "I was going to do an errand in Rock City, and after saving enough money, I hired a few killers to kill the leader of Black Wind Mountain, but I have no other skills except for chopping wood and knowing words, and now even survival has become a problem." ”

Gu Qiuyu nodded and said, "I helped you take revenge, you can follow me in the future." ”

"Really?!" Meng Jingchu suspected that he had misheard, stared at Gu Qiuyu with those big eyes, but then he was disappointed, "Mr. has already been as kind to me as a mountain, the Black Wind Mountain is so powerful, Mr. doesn't have to lose his life for me." ”

"I'll just ask you, do you want revenge?" Gu Qiuyu looked at Meng in surprise with a straight face.

"Think!" Meng blurted out in surprise, "But ......"

"It's nothing, you're done eating, let's go!" Gu Qiuyu saw that he was still a little hesitant, stood up with a displeased face, and walked out.

Meng was surprised to see that Gu Qiuyu was angry, so he hurriedly grabbed a piece of chicken on the table and chased after him, "Sir, wait for me, where are we going?"

Gu Qiuyu didn't look back, "Rock City, Lin family." ”

In fact, Gu Qiuyu originally just looked at the young man's pity, so he came to help, but who knew that the young man was very stubborn, so he had the idea of keeping the young man under him as a waiter.

After all, he was born noble, and when he was in the ancient family, he came to open his mouth with clothes and stretched out his hands when he was eating, and he was served by subordinates.

After arriving in the Absolute Dust Valley, there were still Lao Yao and the women in the valley, and he only thought about practicing, and now that he came out, of course, he had to bring a subordinate who took care of his daily life.

But after the conversation just now, Gu Qiuyu felt sympathy, and he even wanted to accept Meng Jingchu as a disciple, because the experience of the two was too similar, and Gu Qiuyu saw his own shadow in him.

But when it comes to accepting apprentices, Gu Qiuyu has no bottom, his martial arts have not yet been completed, and his experience is very little, so he can do a lot of things by taking him with him first.

At the same time, he is now out of the valley to start his own revenge, but his enemy is the current strongman, the monarch of the Yang Kingdom, such a big thing, he can't do it alone, he urgently needs to cultivate his cronies and strengthen his strength, this Meng Jingchu is a good choice.

"Do you know where the Lin family is?" As soon as he left the restaurant, Gu Qiuyu asked Meng Jingchu,

"Sir, how can you not know where the Lin family is in this Rock City?"

"I just arrived today, and I am not familiar with the journey......"

"Well, sir, I'll take you there. Meng Jingchu glanced at Gu Qiuyu a little strangely, and didn't think much about it, and stepped forward to take the horse in his hand.

"You don't have to call me sir, I'm not a few years older than you, you can call me Brother Feng......"

"Yes, sir, I don't know where you're from......"

“......”

The two quickly entered the crowd on the street and disappeared, and Meng Chu's voice could be faintly heard.

Not far away, two young men were watching them.

One of them said to the other, "You go and tell the Lord that you have found the Imperial Sword Peak, and ask someone to check if the young man was arranged." ”
