Chapter Twenty-Six: Cultivating Gu

The little girl held a short dagger in her hand, pressed it against Liu Ximei's neck, and threatened: "Don't come, I'll kill her if you come." ”

Gu Shengchao took a few steps back, waved his hand and said, "Don't panic, I won't go over." Only then did he notice that he had just fought with that man, and he couldn't use it for two purposes, and the five flying swords hovered in the air and "buzzed", temporarily intimidating the little girl from acting rashly. He waved his hand and withdrew the Five Souls Array.

Liu Ximei's mask had been removed, her hands were tied behind her back, her mouth was stuffed with something and she couldn't speak, and her autumn-like eyes looked at Gu Shengchao with great joy.

The little girl picked up the reins with one hand and urged the horses to run, warning Gu Shengchao: "Don't follow us, or I will really kill her." ”

The carriage slowly got on the road and sped forward.

Gu Shengchao followed far behind, not daring to get too close, lest the little girl do something out of the ordinary.

The carriage was getting faster and faster, and the two wheels of the carriage touched the stones on the road, and from time to time they were cocked and swayed from side to side, and it seemed that they were in danger of capsizing at any moment.

Gu Shengchao felt bad, and quickly chased after him.

As expected, the right wheel of the carriage crushed a large stone, the carriage jumped high, slanted to the left, and bounced up again after hitting the ground heavily, and Liu Ximei was thrown out. The horses kept running, but they still galloped forward.

Gu Shengchao didn't think twice about leaving his feet from the stirrup, and kicked on the galloping horse to rush forward with his strength, just under Liu Ximei's body. He held Liu Ximei in his arms with both hands, and the two of them slid for a while before stopping steadily.

The speeding carriage was completely uncontrollable, and after a series of violent shakings, it finally overturned, and the little girl was thrown out, hit a tree by the side of the road, and fainted.

Gu Shengchao helped Liu Ximei sit up, untied the rope that bound her, and took out the strip of cloth that was stuffed in her mouth.

Liu Ximei left tears for the rest of his life after the catastrophe, hugged Gu Shengchao and cried: "You are finally here." "I can't cry anymore.

Gu Shengchao gently patted her back and comforted: "Don't cry, don't cry, it's okay." Liu Ximei's upper body was close to his chest, and he felt extremely warm, and that strange feeling arose spontaneously and rippled.

"Don't be afraid, girl, I'll come when I go." He didn't dare to think about it, so he got up and walked over to the little girl.

Liu Ximei also stood up and asked timidly: "You, what are you going to do?" ”

"Kill her." Gu Shengchao replied categorically.

Liu Ximei followed, the two walked under the tree, and the little girl also woke up, looking at Gu Shengchao in fear, and begged as she retreated: "Don't kill me, don't kill me." The little girl was frightened, and her eyes were full of tears.

"Let her go, blame the poor." Liu Ximei dissuaded.

Gu Shengchao said disdainfully: "Poor? They have never relented when they wronged others and killed people, and letting the tiger return to the mountain is harming others and themselves. ”

The little girl squatted in the grass, holding her head in her hands and begging, "I am not a bad person, I have never killed anyone." Really, what I said is true. ”

Gu Shengchao clenched his fists and stepped forward, Liu Ximei grabbed him, and said softly: "Forget it, it's not easy for a little girl, just let her go!" ”

The hero is sad to pass the beauty pass, not to mention that Gu Shengchao is not a hero, but Liu Ximei is a real beauty.

Gu Sheng snorted coldly, "I'll spare you for the time being." He saw a black worm in armor and pliers crawling on the trunk of the tree, pinched it with his hand, and silently lucked according to the method given to him by Baili Huan, and after a while, a transparent shell appeared around the black worm. He took the little girl's hand and slapped the black worm on it.

The little girl was afraid of the insects, so she screamed and closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, the insects were gone. She panicked, "That bug, where did that bug go?" ”

Gu Shengchao glanced at the little girl with contempt: "I have planted a Gu worm in your body, maybe it will take a year or two to wake up, if you are really a good person as you say, I will lift it for you." ”

"Ahh The little girl screamed and jumped high, "I'm afraid of the bug, it's in my body, I'm afraid!" ”

Gu Shengchao didn't care about her, helped Liu Ximei to get on the horse, and the two walked slowly. Gu Shengchao asked Liu Ximei why she was here, she put her scattered long hair back up, put on her mask and said: "You didn't return all night that night, I was anxious to wait, I just opened the window early in the morning to breathe, and a dart shot so scared that I didn't dare to move again." Later, the three of them jumped into my acupuncture point and couldn't move, and they put it in a bag and carried it to the car, and then I met Childe. ”

The two rode along with each other, and after a short time the sound of horses' hooves sounded, and the little girl rode up to them. Liu Ximei couldn't help but smile when she saw the little girl riding a horse. The little girl's mount was taken off the carriage, and there was only the reins and no saddle, and it was very funny to sit on it like that.

Gu Shengchao said with a gloomy face: "What are you doing here?" ”

The little girl glared at him, and was about to have a seizure, but immediately pursed her lips and remained silent.

The three of them came to the inn and found a guest room to live in, one for the little girl, one for Gu Shengchao and one for Liu Ximei. The little girl was very diligent, helping to serve tea and pour water during meals, but she only served Liu Ximei alone, and always looked at Gu Shengchao coldly. Gu Shengchao was not annoyed, but confiscated her personal dagger, lest she assassinate her secretly. Liu Ximei was polite to the little girl, and asked her name, and the little girl's name was Wei Chiyao.

Back in the guest room, Gu Shengchao told Liu Ximei about his rescue of Baili Huan that night, and found a wooden basin to help Liu Ximei remove the Gu worms. Liu Ximei retched for a while, and several sealed insects all spit out, looking at the strange-shaped insects in the wooden basin, Liu Ximei turned his head and didn't dare to look at it again.

Gu Shengchao was about to rest when someone knocked on the door, and Gu Shengchao opened the door and saw that it was Yu Chiyao who came in with the water for washing his feet. He wanted to avoid it, but he was afraid that the little girl would have bad intentions, so he stood by and stared. Liu Ximei shirked and didn't want to be served, but Wei Chiyao insisted on her opinion, and Liu Ximei had no choice but to agree.

Liu Ximei took off her clothes and soaked her feet in the water, and Yu Chiyao couldn't help but sigh: "My sister's feet are so white!" ”

"yes, I don't think so." Liu Ximei said humbly.

After Liu Ximei washed her feet, Yu Chiyao poured water and came in again in an instant, standing behind the door without making a sound. Liu Ximei said tactfully: "Sister Wei Chi should also rest, I don't need anyone here, let's talk about it tomorrow morning." ”

Yu Chiyao looked at Gu Shengchao, but he didn't leave.

Gu Shengchao was angry: "If you can't go, if you don't leave, I'll do it." He raised his palm.

Yu Chiyao rushed to the side of the bed, hugged Liu Ximei's arm and pleaded: "I'm afraid of the dark, can I sleep with my sister." ”

"You, vexatious." Gu Shengchao stepped forward and pulled Chi Yao's arm out.

Yu Chiyao cried: "I'm really afraid of the dark, I usually sleep with my mother, beg my sister." ”

Liu Ximei shook her head with a smile, and said helplessly: "Okay, just sleep with me, it's true that Sister Wei Chi has slept with me every night for the past few days." ”

Gu Shengchao was also helpless, and said with a gloomy face: "It's okay to come here to sleep, but not in bed, you can only carry the futon over and sleep underground." ”

Yu Chiyao burst into tears and laughed, "That's okay, you wait and don't close the door." In the blink of an eye, she came in with the futon and slept against the wall.

Gu Shengchao couldn't cry or laugh, it stands to reason that he would definitely avoid having a female dependent, but he was afraid that Yu Chiyao would secretly make it bad, so he could only close the doors and windows and fall asleep behind the door.

Wei Chi Yao's eyes widened and she was puzzled: "You two, don't you sleep together?" ”

"Shut up!" Gu Sheng said sharply, he was really tired of Wei Chi Yao.

Yu Chiyao was so frightened that she immediately fell silent, looked at Liu Ximei innocently and turned to sleep.

Gu Shengchao waved his hand to extinguish the candle, and the room suddenly became dark. Not long after, Liu Ximei and Yu Chiyao fell asleep, but Gu Shengchao was worried, lest Yu Chiyao's accomplices come to the door.

When she woke up in the morning, Yu Chiyao carefully served Liu Ximei, and the two talked and laughed. Gu Shengchao was full of anger, and his face was tired.

Liu Ximei said with concern: "What's wrong with Childe, is there something uncomfortable?" ”

Gu Shengchao said angrily: "It's not this girl yet, who knows what kind of tricks she has in her heart, so I don't dare to sleep." ”

Yu Chiyao glanced at him, and stopped talking.

Liu Ximei sighed lightly and said, "It's not that you asked for it, after solving the Gu worm of Sister Wei Chi, she will definitely not pester you anymore." ”

Gu Shengchao thought about it, he wanted to scare her not to do bad things, but he wanted to cause trouble for himself, and he was so worried that he was uncomfortable. He immediately relieved Yu Chiyao of the Gu worm, and Yu Chiyao was able to be freed, and no longer bothered with the two of them and ran out with a black face.

The two ate and went on the road, Gu Shengchao said that he learned the method of detoxification, and Liu Ximei was happy. The poison in her body flared up from time to time, and she was miserable.

Gu Shengchao pondered for a moment and said: "Detoxification consumes a lot of internal strength, it takes a long time, you must find a safe place, if it is carried out in the inn, it will be troublesome for Yu Chiyao and his gang to come to the door." ”

Liu Ximei comforted: "I'm used to this poison over time, I'm not in a hurry to the moment, when is it convenient for the son!" ”

Gu Shengchao thought of the place as soon as he thought of it, and he said, "That day, my eldest brother and I were trapped in a cave, and it was an excellent place, so let's go there!" ”

The two were afraid that someone would chase after them, so they abandoned the avenue and took the path, and came to the small town where Liu Ximei was taken captive unhurried. They changed to an inn to stay, and Liu Ximei was extremely tired from running for many days, so she stayed and rested that night.

Liu Ximei felt sorry for Gu Shengchao and asked him to sleep on the bed, but Gu Shengchao refused, and still wrapped himself in a quilt and slept behind the door to prevent someone from sneaking in.

He listened to Liu Ximei's subtle snort, and couldn't fall asleep over and over. He felt that his situation had been in trouble with the enemy recently, and although the element of winning was too much of a fluke, it was always difficult to win. Obviously, the internal force is abundant, the "Nine Heavens Blue Palm" palm technique is exquisite, and the "Five Soul Array" is hugely powerful, as if it can't be used with strength, and I feel that I owe something to it.

Gu Shengchao recalled the scene every time he confronted the enemy, thought hard, and finally found one point, that is, he was not flexible enough to be improvised, and he always fought one-on-one with the opponent, so he seemed more passive. There is also a mastery of palms, clumsy swordsmanship, but abandoned the strengths and weaknesses to compete with the strengths of others, how can it not be difficult.

He thought of the weasel's flexible position, and made up his mind that when he confronted others in the future, he would only use the "Nine Heavens Blue Palm" to deal with it, and not seek the obsession of killing with one move, as long as he can win, it is more important than anything else. The "Five Soul Array" is extremely powerful, and it is still not easy to control it until now, and it is better not to use it until it is absolutely necessary.
