Gu Shengchao pretended to take refuge in Zhou Hualiang, the two were close on the surface, but in fact, they looked like they were separated, and they both observed each other in the side knock and side attack.

According to Gu Shengchao's original plan, he was going to release Zhou Hualiang, and then secretly track him to find the whereabouts of Zhuang Lutao and Wan Yanxi.

It just so happened that Shui Linglong's inadvertent sentence, a person who has no power to restrain the chicken, can appear on many important occasions in the Tianqing Gang, and he is definitely a lightweight character. Gu Shengchao temporarily changed his mind and pretended to join the enemy to find out.

Gu Shengchao pretended to kill Shui Linglong, although it was enough to confuse Zhou Hualiang, but he was still wary, and when he saw his own people carrying out a sneak attack, he just took this opportunity to weigh Gu Shengchao's true strength.

Who would have expected that Gu Shengchao practiced kung fu so well, snatched the white blade empty-handed within a few moves, and easily controlled the master who protected Zhou Hualiang, which shocked everyone present.

If Gu Shengchao loses the upper hand, Zhou Hualiang will definitely not ask, just take the opportunity to kill his prestige, so that Gu Shengchao will not dare to be obedient in the future.

But now that his own people are suffering, Zhou Hualiang has to hurry up to stop it, one person's failure is small, but the loss of all the face of the Tianqing Gang is unacceptable.

Gu Shengchao heard Zhou Hualiang shouting "Stop", got off the donkey down the slope and put the man down steadily, and said with a smile: "It's all your own people, learn from each other, don't mind Brother Wangtai." ”

The man took a few steps back and looked at Zhou Hualiang, asking for his attitude, he was still full of hostility towards Gu Shengchao.

Zhou Hualiang took Gu Shengchao's hand and explained: "This brother's name is Gu Shengchao, and he has just joined our Tianqing Gang. ”

He introduced to Gu Shengchao: "This big brother Longyou is a master who specializes in protecting me, you can discuss more in the future." ”

Long You was angry at the defeat just now, Gu Shengchao stepped forward and arched his hand: "Brother Long's kung fu is superb, it's just a momentary negligence that made the junior brother's sneak attack successful, this exquisite knife technique is greedy, and he will inevitably bother Brother Long in the future." ”

Although Gu Shengchao won, he still gave Long You enough face. Although Long You was unwilling, he had to endure it in his heart first, and arched his hand coldly towards the ancient saint, and left without saying a word.

"He is such a person, he looks cold on the surface, but he is a warm-hearted person, and you will naturally understand after a long time of contact." Zhou Hualiang defended Long You.

Gu Shengchao waved his hand and said humbly: "The military advisor is serious, I didn't make an inch of success when I first came to Tianqing Gang, I should have kept a low profile, just now I didn't control my strength and almost injured Brother Long, it's my fault." ”

"Humility is full of benefits and losses, and the Shengchao brothers can focus on the overall situation regardless of their previous suspicions, which is a gift from God to our Tianqing Gang." Zhou Hualiang was impressed by Gu Shengchao, and his attitude was much closer.

A few people came to a large mansion, and the gate of the courtyard was guarded, presumably this is a more important place.

Someone led the way, and they walked into a room one after another, and a simple meal was prepared on the table, with only some steamed cakes and small plates of pickles, and a few bowls of rice porridge.

"The Tianqing Gang is committed to the people's living and working in peace and contentment, the diet is relatively simple, everyone is the same meal, and they will slowly get used to it." Zhou Hualiang was afraid that the ancient saint would be super picky, so he explained it in advance.

Several people sat around the table, picked up steamed cakes and swallowed them with pickles.

Gu Shengchao pinched a piece of cake and bit it down and chewed it in his mouth, it was jerky and dry, mixed with wild vegetables and various coarse grains.

"Don't worry, you will get used to it if you eat too much." Zhou Hualiang saw Gu Shengchao's expression.

Smiling calmly, Gu Shengchao swallowed the pickles, "I have been living in the rivers and lakes since I was a child, and I am often hungry and full, and if I can eat these every day, I will be happier than the New Year." ”

Zhou Hualiang saw that Gu Shengchao did not reject these meals, and he was also relieved at the moment.

Gu Shengchao secretly observed Zhou Hualiang and the others, and the food was extremely natural, not intentional at all, and he was even more curious about this Tianqing Gang.

If a sect has a slight scale, the food and clothing of the big and small leaders will be different. Zhou Hualiang's position as a military advisor is not low, and he has to be treated the same as ordinary disciples, this sect is really incomprehensible.

Zhou Hualiang took a piece of steamed cake, drank a mouthful of porridge and asked: "I stunned several people with 'three steps must be scattered', and you also rushed in when you heard the movement, did you gain anything in the end?" ”

"Back to the military division, we were thinking of rescuing you at the time, but there were people in the thick fog who couldn't get by, we couldn't hold our breath for a long time and had to withdraw, and several brothers also died there, so we had no choice but to carry one person back." One person looked at Gu Shengchao and told Zhou Hualiang.

Zhou Hualiang also looked at Gu Shengchao and said curiously: "I took the antidote in advance, why aren't Brother Gu afraid of my poisonous smoke?" ”

Gu Shengchao thought about it, the fact that he was an invincible body must not let them know, and pretended to be embarrassed and said: "I have helped others fish by the water since I was a child, and I have cultivated a good water ability to hold my breath for a long time, and I don't have any tricks. ”

"I see." Zhou Hualiang has no doubts.

The other said, "But I heard in the fog that there was another man intercepting us, and that man used a short knife, and my arm was cut by a sudden scimitar, and if it hadn't been for the Hidden Arrow that happened to be installed there to block it for me, this arm of mine would have been discarded at that time." ”

He had a sackcloth tied around his arm to wrap the wound tightly.

"Who is that man? Can you win it over and use it for my Tianqing Gang? Zhou Hualiang showed his instinct as a military advisor, and he did not think about revenge and suppression at the first time, but took into account the development and growth of the sect.

Gu Shengchao couldn't hide it, so he said: "That person is a woman who went to the capital of Xileng with me, and a pair of scimitars disappeared, but for some reason they disappeared in the end. If you find her, don't hurt her, for I will persuade her to change her mind. ”

"It's for the best." Zhou Hualiang agreed.

Gu Shengchao was very happy, so that even if Yan Xi was captured, he would have enough time to rescue him, so that he would not lose his life in vain.

The meal was simple, and everyone quickly ended their meal.

Zhou Hualiang put down the dishes and chopsticks and asked, "Where is the person you carried now?" Do you know where he came from? ”

"I know him."

The man sitting near the door replied: "This man has lost his right arm, but his left hand is skillful, and their village is in a good location, and we plan to build a secret base there. ”

Zhou Hualiang nodded: "I've heard about this matter, it turns out that the initiator is right in front of me, let's go and see what is going on." ”

After dinner, it was getting dark.

Gu Shengchao followed everyone to the courtyard, someone carried a lantern in front of him to illuminate it, and a person next to him took out the key to open the door lock of the east wing.

Under the light, a person was tied with iron chains on the pillars in the room, and it was Zhuang Lutao.

He accidentally inhaled the poisonous smoke and was still asleep, his head drooping weakly, and he relied on iron chains to hold his body in place so that he would not slip off the pillar.

Zhou Hualiang took out two porcelain bottles, one red and one white, from his arms, dipped them in them with the little fingernails of his left and right hands, and then flicked them on a piece of paper, and immediately someone took the note and put it under Zhuang Lutao's nostrils.

"Sneeze, sneeze......"

Zhuang Lutao slowly woke up after sneezing a few times in succession.

"Brother Gu, why are you here?" Zhuang Lutao looked around and saw Gu Shengchao, and couldn't help but be surprised.

Gu Shengchao looked at the people around him, and said with an embarrassed smile: "I abandoned the darkness and turned to the light, and I only joined the Tianqing Gang today." ”

"Bah, I was blind and mistaken about you, and there will be no brother like you from now on." Zhuang Lutao turned his head away from him.

Gu Shengchao was even more embarrassed, scratched his head and stepped aside.

He carefully sensed the situation outside, thinking about the potential dangers he needed to face after rescuing Zhuang Lutao.

Two people are guarding the gate of the courtyard, and they can't break in.

There was a man standing guard on the roof, and any movement below could be clearly seen.

The existence of these three breaths can basically ensure that the entire courtyard is on alert, and there is danger to be warned at any time.

The breath on the roof moved to the top of the main house, probably tired of walking, so he stopped in place to rest.

Suddenly, the breath suddenly disappeared.

Gu Shengchao's heart sank.

There is only one possibility for this to happen, and the person lost his life in an instant.

Could it be that Wan Yanxi took advantage of the twilight to lurk?

However, near the disappearing aura, Gu Shengchao did not detect the aura of other people.

After Lu Chuan's guidance, Wan Yanxi had learned to perfectly conceal his aura, which made it impossible for Gu Shengchao to find it.

Gu Shengchao's perception could only detect the breath of living creatures, while Wan Yanxi was different, she could perceive all objects of different shapes.

In the dark night, Gu Shengchao couldn't find each other, but Wan Yanxi was able to accurately find the location of each of them.

The roof tiles made a noise, and someone stepped on it to make a noise.

"Liu Er, walk lightly on it, if you step on the tiles, it will leak rain." Someone shouted a reminder upward.

As soon as the people below shouted, the footsteps on the roof were even louder, and they seemed to be a little flustered and ran in the northwest direction.

"There is a situation." Zhou Hualiang suddenly felt that something was wrong, and ordered: "Brother Wang, you two go up to check immediately." ”

The two of them went out of the room and flew into the room, and after a while, they exclaimed, "Oh no, Liu Er is dead." ”

"There are assassins." Gu Shengchao reminded everyone, carried a lantern and flew up to the room to check.

The man named Liu Er was lying upright on the roof, with a deep wound on his neck, and he almost cut off his head.

Kill with a single sword.

A large man with a sturdy figure fell silently on the roof, definitely stabbing him in close motion and then slowly putting him down.

"Who, whoever did it, come out." The ancient saint shouted loudly.

Wan Yanxi's familiar aura flashed a few times in the southeast direction, and there was no trace of it.

Gu Shengchao understood that it was deliberately exposed to him by Wan Yanxi.

Could it be?

Gu Shengchao seemed to have guessed Yan Xi's thoughts, he pointed to the northwest and shouted, "The assassin is over there, I see him." ”

With that, he chased after him.

The people were full of revenge, and several people followed.
