When Gu Huaiyi woke up again, by the faint candlelight, he found himself in a cellar. Although he was not restrained, because of the meteoric iron nail in his body, he was now inferior to an ordinary person, and he could only barely move, and it took a lot of effort to even lift the water bowl next to him, let alone wave his fists.

"Hey," a voice came from a dark corner, "Awake? Hungry, right? I've got something delicious for you."

Gu Huaiyi could hear that it was a woman's voice, and it was the voice of Guan Zhiqing, the head of the Heavenly Ren Hall of the Beggar Gang.

Gu Huaiyi stared at the corner and watched Guan Zhiqing slowly come out of the darkness, still dressed as a beggar, the scars on his face and the large birthmarks were even more obvious under the candlelight.

Gu Huaiyi didn't speak, while Guan Zhiqing stepped forward and stepped on his ankle directly.

Gu Huaiyi didn't say a word, just don't turn his head, because his eyes were so dark in pain that he almost fainted, if it weren't for the meteorite nails in his body, the injuries and bones would be nothing to his kind of armor.

Guan Zhiqing stepped aside, raised his head and said, "Throw it down."

At this time, the door above the cellar opened, and a man was thrown down.

Guan Zhiqing reached out and probed the man's nose: "It's still alive, it's very fresh."

After that, Guan Zhiqing threw the man directly in front of Gu Huaiyi: "Eat, it will be better if you eat it, otherwise, you can only be paralyzed there all the time."

Although Gu Huaiyi didn't know how long it had been since he left Tang Anshu, he could tell from the weakness of his body that it had been at least five days.

Guan Zhiqing sat back in the dark corner of the wall before: "What? Don't want to eat? What kind of false mercy are you pretending to be, are there still fewer people who eat your carapace? There is no difference between sucking people's essence and eating people."

Gu Huaiyi sneered, "The meteorite is nailed in my body, I don't even have the strength, how can I smoke it?"

Guan Zhiqing also smiled: "Gu Huaiyi, in addition to inhaling *** qi with your hair, your teeth are also your weapons, inhaling *** qi is the fastest way, but you can also bite directly into the skull with your teeth, although it is not as convenient as using hair, but you can still obtain essence qi."

Gu Huaiyi looked at Guan Zhiqing: "The rumors are really true, the beggar Tianrentang has a very thorough understanding of the Jia, but I can't eat, you should also know that you can't force me to eat, if it's an ordinary person, you can break his mouth and stuff the food in, but even if you break my mouth and put my teeth on the top of that guy's head, as long as I don't want to, you can't force me."

Guan Zhiqing said lightly: "I know, that's why I chose such a person to feed you. Your hand must be strong enough to hold up the candle, and you come closer to see who this person is."

When Gu Huaiyi heard this, he picked up the candle and held it up, and when the candlelight illuminated that person's face, Gu Huaiyi was stunned, because it was his enemy, the enemy who killed his whole family.

After being surprised, Gu Huaiyi quickly regained his composure and reached out to touch the man's face, because he couldn't believe that it was that person, thinking that it was Guan Zhiqing who had found an innocent person to disguise.

However, the man did not change his face.

Guan Zhiqing stepped forward and ordered a few knots on the man's body, allowing the man to wake up.

After the man woke up, he looked at Guan Zhiqing in horror, and kowtowed again and again: "Heroine, spare your life, I will give you whatever you want, as long as you spare my life, I can do anything."

Guan Zhiqing pointed to Gu Huaiyi next to him and said, "Do you know him?"

When the white-haired old man turned his head to look at Gu Huaiyi, he couldn't help but be stunned, and then began to kowtow to Gu Huaiyi, but he only kowtowed, broke his forehead, and didn't say a word.

Guan Zhiqing looked at Gu Huaiyi and said, "How is it? I didn't lie to you, did I? For you, he is a delicacy, after I knew that the person who sent it was you, I went to the Underworld to buy your news, although there is not much news, but at least I know that you have an enemy who cannot take revenge, and this enemy, and so coincidentally, is hiding in Rouyuan City, although he is not as high-profile as before now, and he hides deeply, but after all, Rouyuan City is the territory of my Tianrentang, and it is easy to find someone."

Gu Huaiyi looked at the person in front of him, "So I was hiding

In Johora, no wonder I can't find it."

Guan Zhiqing said: "You can spend money to buy news in the Underworld, oh, I forgot, you are a strategist with two sleeves and a clean breeze, and when you were in Liangcheng, you knew how to pretend to be crazy and stupid, and drink all day long. You're like that, not just because you didn't sit in the position of Great Strategist, but because you can't take revenge."

The old man in front of Gu Huaiyi was named He Yuyun, who was also a well-known figure in Huayuan Fengxun Road back then, and he was also a local magistrate, the so-called parent official.

It's just that He Yuyun, the parent official, is a person who dares to do anything for money, and the Gu family had a dispute with another big local family over a piece of land, and finally went to court, and the big family gave He Yuyun a large sum of money, originally just to win the lawsuit.

Who knows, He Yuyun thought that if he just won the lawsuit, he would leave endless trouble, so he framed Gu Huaiyi's father for money and murder, and after forging a series of evidence, he was directly beheaded.

Since then, Gu Huaiyi's mother has led him to wander around, trying his best to survive. Within two years, Gu Huaiyi's mother died of illness, and it was at that time that Gu Huaiyi met Hu Shen and was accepted as a disciple by Hu Shen from then on.

If Gu Huaiyi hadn't met Hu Shen, it is estimated that he would have died in the wilderness a long time ago, but he never forgot his family ugly.

Therefore, after he grew up and became a strategist, he wanted to take revenge, but was stopped by Hu Shen, on the grounds that it was inappropriate for him to do such a thing in his current identity, and most importantly, He Yuyun had already taken refuge in the Nanrong family, which is why he dared to be domineering in the local area.

At that time, Gu Huaiyi was very excited, thinking that Hu Shen was afraid of the Nanrong family.

Hu Shen didn't explain anything, just said, "Don't forget your current identity, you have endured it for so many years, why can't you bear it now? Do you really think that when you become a counselor, you will completely transform and become a person who holds the power of life and death?"

Gu Huaiyi left angrily, but saw Sang Luo at the door.

Gu Huaiyi and Sang Luo originally had the same relationship, the reason is that both of them are Hu Shen's disciples, and they are also the ones who have the opportunity to become great strategists among the many disciples under Hu Shen.

But they don't have a good relationship, just because they want to compete for the great strategist, and they don't have any personal grudges.

Therefore, Gu Huaiyi was unwilling to deal with Sangluo.

But just as Gu Huaiyi walked past Sang Luo, Sang Luo spoke.

Sang Luo said, "Huaiyi, have you forgotten that you are a strategist?"

Gu Huaiyi stopped, turned around and glared at Sang Luo: "I haven't forgotten, I also know that even if I am a strategist, I am nothing, I don't have power, I can't take revenge, you don't have to remind me, let alone insult me."

Sanroku's tone was calm: "I just want to tell you that since you are a strategist, if you want to achieve your goals, you should use your brains, not your temper."

Sang Luo's words reminded Gu Huaiyi, Gu Huaiyi's anger gradually extinguished, and the person calmed down.

Gu Huaiyi looked at the door of the mansion suddenly, remembering what Master Hu Shen said before, Master just asked him to use his brain to figure out a way.

Sang Luo said: "I know that you have always wanted to take revenge, but you must know that not everyone in the Nanrong family can move, even the members of the court and the central government dare not, let alone the master and you and me."

Gu Huaiyi was silent when he heard this, because what Sang Luo said was the truth.

Sang Luo didn't say anything more, turned around and left.

Gu Huaiyi had no choice but to keep this matter in his heart, and then wait for an opportunity to think of a way, but after thinking about it, he felt that he could only implement the plan he came up with only after becoming a great strategist.

Half a year later, Gu Huaiyi received the news that He Yuyun resigned and lived in seclusion with his family.

Gu Huaiyi knew that it was just the obvious reason, so he tried to find someone to inquire.

After inquiring, I learned that He Yuyun had embezzled a sum of goods from Nanrong's family, and in order to save his life, he had to resign and run away.

Gu Huaiyi felt very strange, no matter how stupid He Yuyun was, he should know that Nan Rong's things couldn't be moved, did he have hysteria and was completely crazy?

After thinking about it, Gu Huaiyi could only think of Master Hu Shen, and when he found his master, Hu Shen told him that if he wanted to know the truth of the matter, he should go to find it

Sangluo.

At that time, Gu Huaiyi knew that the whole thing was done by Sang Luo, but he was not happy, but he had mixed feelings.

First of all, because He Yuyun just resigned and ran away, it was not his revenge, and secondly, Sang Luo did what he didn't do, proving that Sang Luo was more powerful than him.

When Gu Huaiyi found Sang Luo, Sang Luo had already set up a chessboard and a tea set waiting for him.

Sang Luo smiled and groaned, "I know that you will come to me immediately after receiving the news, so prepare a tea chessboard and wait for you."

Gu Huaiyi shook his head and said, "I don't have the heart to play chess."

Sang Luo put the teacup in front of Gu Huaiyi: "Then drink tea."

Gu Huaiyi said, "I'm confused, how did you do it?"

Sang Luo looked at Gu Huaiyi: "I know, you think that I am the same as you, although I have become a strategist, I have no real teacher, and I don't have any official position in the imperial court, why can I arrange all this, right?"

Gu Huaiyi nodded and said, "Yes."

"You sit down first," Sang Luo waited for Gu Huaiyi to sit down before saying, "Although we don't have official positions, the two of us have an advantage, that is, everyone in the court knows that only you and me can become the next great strategist, so these officials will naturally scold us, and I believe they have also stammered you."

Gu Huaiyi still just nodded, and he sneered at those officials who stammered.

Sang Luo said: "I know, you look down on those people, and even more down on those officials, for a very simple reason, because your enemy He Yuyun is an official. But have you forgotten one thing?"

Gu Huaiyi frowned and asked, "What's the matter?"

Sang Luo said: "The power word door in the "Art of War" in the "Auxiliary World" talks about the art of imperial ink, what is imperial ink? The original meaning is the ink used by the royal family, but in fact, this royal character is the control of control, and ink refers to those officials who are greedy for ink, that is, those officials who are greedy for financial gain, and the power word door specializes in officialdom and scheming, which happens to be the part you reject the most, but you forget, the teacher once taught us, the art of imperial ink, is more important than the other four gates for us strategists."
