Chapter 67: Useless Comparison
The days returned to their former calm, Gu Shengchao wanted to ask Lang Zhong to see Lu Wanshan, but he refused, saying that he knew his body best, and Gu Shengchao was also helpless.
It's just that I think of that night's experience and am full of curiosity about Lu Wanshan, first of all, his life experience, which sect I don't know, why I went to Beihu and came to Yunshang City, why the Fengwu Sword is in his hand, and who is the woman named Yan Xi, these are all confusing.
Gu Shengchao wanted to ask several times, but after all, he couldn't help it, it naturally made sense if people didn't say it, and if he asked hard, he might not tell the truth.
On this day, Yang Qianhui and Fang Ju came back listlessly, Gu Shengchao asked, they said that they had changed instructors, and Bai Pei'an had something to do, and there was no other elder to teach them. The elders are only in their twenties, and if they don't teach them kung fu all day long, they are all bored and tired of learning, and they are far less interesting than the white sect head practicing kung fu, saying that the elders have no reputation but no ability.
Gu Shengchao didn't understand, it stands to reason that there are only six elders in the outer court, and there must be something extraordinary to become an elder in his twenties, how can he not be capable? He asked Fang Ju to explain it again, and Fang Ju casually said that these were all learned when he was a child, and there was no need to learn them again. Gu Shengchao listened carefully and was overjoyed in his heart, these were exactly what he had never learned.
It's like a mantra in the Iron Arm Divine Skill, he always knows a little bit about it, Liu Ximei is proficient in calligraphy and painting, and he can immediately understand the meaning of the mantra and will not go astray.
"Fang Ju, look at the sentence 'arrows are like rain, dense as hedgehogs', is it shooting upwards or downwards? The hedgehog's spines are all pointing upwards. Gu Shengchao was puzzled.
Fang Ju looked at it and said indifferently: "Is there a difference?" Anyway, it's just a lot of arrows, so it doesn't matter where it shoots? ”
Gu Shengchao shook his head and said: "The difference is big, specific to ordinary practice, whether the true qi is raised or sunk, if you don't figure it out, you will die if you have internal injuries or serious injuries." Usually, if we learn solidly, we will not make mistakes when we apply it in practice. ”
Fang Ju thought about it, and after reading it carefully, he said: "There is no hint in the context, I look like it is facing down, you see that this 'arrow is raining' doesn't have the word 'down'!" No, I'll have to ask Mademoiselle. She took the book and ran to ask Yang Qianhui, and after a while, she ran back and said: "No, Miss said, this is facing up, 'arrows raining down' just describes a lot, not really saying downward." She put her hands on her cheeks and thought for a long time, and then said to herself: "Forget it, I'll ask the elders tomorrow, it looks very simple, let you ask like this, I'm also in a trance." ”
The next day, Gu Shengchao went to pick them up, and Fang Ju came out of the door and trotted over when he saw him, and said excitedly: "Today, the elder praised me, saying that I study hard."
"yes, then keep it up." Gu Shengchao encouraged.
Yang Qianhui puffed and said: "Look at what makes her happy, isn't it what she said yesterday, this is just the beginning, and the difficulty is still to come." ”
Gu Shengchao remembered, and hurriedly asked, "Yes, is it facing up or down?" ”
Fang Ju raised his head and said, "The elder said, neither up nor down, just go in the direction you should go." ”
Gu Shengchao was ignorant, scratched his head and said, "Then what should I do, what is the direction I should go." ”
Yang Qianhui added: "Looking at her proud, Elder Shui said that this is a description of the Purple Cloud Dart, saying that as long as the target is found, all the darts will be shot, so that the other party cannot dodge." The person or thing we're dealing with is where we should go. Qingyun swordsmanship, purple cloud darts, and the light skills of Yunqi Palace are the key learning content we should focus on during this time. ”
"Great." Gu Shengchao was even more pleased, he could learn the three great skills of Yunqi Palace, even if it was trivial.
The three of them were talking and laughing, a carriage stopped on the side of the road, and a man with oily hair and pink face poked his head out of the curtain: "Yo, isn't this Miss Yang?" Why don't you need to be picked up and dropped, how hard it is to walk like this. ”
Yang Qianhui snorted and said, "Xue Gongzi is expensive, we are here to learn real skills, not so squeamish." ”
Xue Gongzi glanced at Gu Shengchao and said mockingly: "This is the bodyguard you spent fifty taels of silver, and it is worth twenty taels when you look at it!" He laughed.
Gu Shengchao knew that Yang Qianhui and the children of these powerful people would definitely compare with each other in the academy, and he was even more disgusted with such a rich child, so he said coldly: "As long as I am willing to do it for free, will it hinder this son?" ”
Xue Gongzi was stunned for a moment, and immediately changed his face: "It's really in the way, I want to underestimate Miss Yang in the future, she is not worthy of the title of the prince's daughter, it is too valuable." He pointed to the bodyguard who was driving the car: "How much is the silver that my father invited, guess how much?" ”
"Cut, I'm too lazy to pay attention to you." Yang Qianhui was reluctant to take care of the other party.
Xue Gongzi said proudly: "Scared your guts, this number." He held out two fingers.
Fang Ju was also happy: "Twenty taels, your skin is thick enough." ”
Xue Gongzi said unhappily: "To tell you the truth, it's two hundred taels, and I'll top him four." ”
Gu Shengchao glanced at the coachman, the man was middle-aged, his temples were bulging, and he was a hard qigong master at a glance. Gu Shengchao bowed his hand to the man, but he didn't expect that the man would ignore Gu Shengchao and be extremely arrogant.
Xue Gongzi couldn't see his bodyguard, he saw Gu Shengchao's modest appearance and thought it was a show of weakness, and he was even more proud, and whistled at Yang Qianhui and said, "How is it, I'm afraid." Anyway, we all go out and adults can't take care of it, a lonely man and a widow, why don't we live together first? ”
"Get out!" Yang Qianhui was really angry, so she pulled the chrysanthemum and left.
Xue Gongzi jumped out of the car and stopped the two women, and said with a hippie smile: "Don't mind, if you have something to say, I have silver, and I will pay if you make a price." ”
"You ......" Yang Qianhui was annoyed, and he was about to hit him with his hand, but a big hand reached out from behind Xue Gongzi, and he was about to grab Yang Qianhui's slender wrist. Yang Qianhui worked hard during this time, and when she saw that she couldn't get a bargain, she immediately retracted, but the big hand was unrelenting, and grabbed Yang Qianhui's shoulder. She took a step slower to change her move, and as she saw that her shoulder was about to be caught, a hand reached behind her and took it.
Xue Gongzi and Yang Qianhui were caught in the middle, Gu Shengchao and the middle-aged man passed a few moves in an instant, and no one had an advantage. Xue Gongzi and Yang Qianhui were also people who had practiced kung fu, and they withdrew to the side in a witty way, and Gu Shengchao and that person fought together.
Gu Shengchao is iron arm magic skill plus Jiutian Biluo palm, that person's golden bell cover kung fu is not ambiguous, and the two of them only saw the difference after more than 30 moves. After all, it is the exquisite palm technique of Jiutian Biluo, that person is losing and retreating, Gu Shengchao knows the truth of accepting it when he sees it, he closed his palm and stopped just about to say a kind word, and gave the other party down the steps, everyone was happy, and no one should offend anyone, the man suddenly showed a dagger and stabbed at Gu Shengchao's neck.
"Don't be ignorant." Gu Shengchao was annoyed, the other party turned out to be a master who couldn't afford to lose, and he had to fight to the death for the sake of face.
Gu Shengchao took a step back to avoid its edge, and deliberately sold a flaw to snatch the dagger in the other party's hand, the man was overjoyed, and the dagger cut horizontally in a vain attempt to cut off Gu Shengchao's palm. Gu Shengchao couldn't help but be furious when he saw him making a ruthless move, and raised his feet to kick his knees with his palms. No one in the eyes of that person thought that he could win with one move, where could he see below, and the kung fu with the golden bell jar was even more arrogant.
With a "click", the man's kneecap suddenly shattered, and he screamed and lay down on his side, convulsing.
"You, you accompany my bodyguard." Xue Gongzi stepped forward to theorize.
Gu Shengchao crossed his arms and said contemptuously: "Can you use a dagger to learn kung fu, besides, how can the master invited by two hundred taels of silver let me down, it must be that he is too modest to pretend." ”
Xue Gongzi thought about it, stared at the bodyguard, and checked whether he was deliberately defeated. The man was so ashamed that he immediately let go of his dagger and begged, "Son, send me back to my house quickly." ”
"Didn't you say that you are invulnerable, it must be an imposter who came to deceive me, I went back and told my father that the two hundred taels of silver per month were spent in vain." Xue Gongzi didn't even ask, and walked away angrily.
The man struggled to sit up, looked at Gu Shengchao and begged: "Strong man atoning for his sins, I really can't walk, can you help me to Langzhong for treatment, I have silver that you don't need to break the bank." ”
Gu Shengchao saw that he was pitiful and moved with compassion, facing each other with his hands under his armpits and ready to help him up, Gu Shengchao hugged him halfway, and he suddenly fell as heavy as Mount Tai and Gu Shengchao fell down.
"It's not good, he used a thousand pounds of kung fu, and he must have some attempts." Gu Shengchao suddenly woke up, he grabbed the other party's armpit clothes with both hands, turned over with the help of a heel, and took the opportunity to throw him to the ground. This move Gu Shengchao originally wouldn't have been, but in the capital of the Dawu Dynasty and the first warrior of Beihu, he was rarely in the iron moves, and he realized it from the iron moves.
Gu Shengchao felt that his chest was breathing, and when he looked down, he saw that the placket on his chest was split in two by a sharp blade, and a white mark was drawn on his chest, almost disemboweling. Look at the man again, holding a dagger in his hand, he is glaring at Gu Shengchao viciously. Gu Sheng was super angry, stepped forward and kicked the dagger in the man's hand, raised his foot and completely crushed his other kneecap, the severe pain made the man's body curl up and wail.
Yang Qianhui and Fang Ju couldn't bear it, they both turned their faces and didn't dare to watch.
Gu Shengchao sighed, "Let's go." ”
He frowned and went back, Fang Ju followed behind, Yang Qianhui couldn't help but glance at it secretly, and gently pulled the corner of Gu Shengchao's clothes and said, "He's strange and pitiful, why don't you help him." ”
Gu Shengchao's eyebrows were upside down, and he said with a stern face: "People with human faces and beast hearts are not worthy of sympathy. Helping him now is a bad person, don't use your kindness to help those wicked people who do evil, and you can only be hurt in the end. You helped him, but you were just moved by yourself, and you couldn't move these wolf-hearted beasts. As long as they are given a chance, they will definitely take revenge on you even more, and it is better to let them fend for themselves than this. ”
Yang Qianhui pondered carefully as if this was the case, and then made up her mind to leave.
A few days later, Fang Ju came back and said that Xue Gongzi had gone home and stopped studying, and Gu Shengchao was curious to ask why.
Fang Ju danced and said: "Don't mention it, that Xue Gongzi offended a lot of people by acting as a powerful man on weekdays, and now everyone knows that he has no helpers, and someone took advantage of him to cover him with a bag on the way back and beat him with a fat beating, so that his nose and face were swollen, and he slipped back." Fang Ju said very relieved, as if she had made a move.
