Chapter 152: Deliberately Losing the Game
The so-called layman looks at the liveliness, and the insider looks at the doorway.
Looking at Tian Mang's expression, he was also more interested in Zhao Jin's set of formations.
"I heard in the Dawu Dynasty that there is a kung fu called 'Phoenix Dance and Phoenix Sword Technique', which is said to be unparalleled in the world, but only legends are left in the long run. It is rumored that the descendants of this set of swordsmanship are scattered all over the place, including the Beihu and Xileng kingdoms. Even further west, there is a Shuangjian Gate in the Shentu Department of Tianrong Kingdom, and I guess Zhao Jin should also be a branch of it. Gu Shengchao seemed to be talking lightly, but in fact, he peeked at Tian Mang, estimating that he should have heard of it.
Tian Mang stared at Gu Shengchao: "So, Brother Gu is also a descendant of one of the branches?" ”
Although Tian Mang was restraining his internal strength, Gu Shengchao still felt a compelling cold.
He stood up and stretched out his left hand to summon the sword: "Later generations can't talk about it, the younger brother learned some phoenix dance swordsmanship by chance, and he didn't know the authenticity, so he asked Brother Tian to teach him." ”
Seeing him like this, Tian Mang was much more relaxed.
He smiled and stood up and flashed the sword in his hand, and the sword shook lightly in his right hand, and the sword was actually divided into two, holding one in each hand.
Mandarin duck sword!
Gu Shengchao had only heard of it before, but he had never seen it with his own eyes, and he was also curious at the moment.
"It's ugly."
After he gave a salute, he stabbed Tian Mang with a move "Feng Laiyi".
Tian Mang was on guard and raised his sword to resist.
After more than ten moves by the two, they were all shocked.
Tian Mang was shocked that Gu Shengchao's left-handed swordsmanship was exquisite, déjà vu, but unfathomable.
Gu Shengchao was shocked that the opponent's swordsmanship was unpredictable, and it was very different from when he faced Zhou Chenglong. The swordsmanship just now was fierce, but at this time, it was much more elegant, which was different from the swordsmanship of the Shuangjian Gate, but it was indistinguishable.
The three of them buried their bodies in the woods and walked out, and when they saw that the two were inseparable, they looked at each other inexplicably.
Fang Cai was like a brother, but now he turned against each other, and they all came over to help, planning to deal with Gu Shengchao together.
Tian Mang's double swords twisted Gu Shengchao's left hand sword, and the two of them just tried and did not use all their strength.
"Brother Gu is good at swordsmanship, I'm gone."
"Brother Tian's swordsmanship is exquisite, and the younger brother admires it."
Both laughed at the same time and put away their swords.
After the competition, the initial vigilance was completely gone, but it became much closer.
There was a constant commotion on the mountain beam, and the patrols below the mountain had long noticed that something was wrong, and a group of people came up with torches to check.
Seeing this, Tian Mang had no choice but to give up his hand and say: "It's not appropriate to stay here for a long time, let's go back first." ”
"Brother Tian be careful, the younger brother will leave first." Gu Shengchao sensed the movement around him, and returned from no one to the tent in the valley.
These days, Ma Guanshan has pestered the ancient saints to study and practice hard, and Zhou Hualiang and Long You have long been used to this.
Long You was alert in his sleep, and when he saw Gu Shengchao enter the tent, he muttered, "That apprentice of yours is really studious", and without waiting for Gu Shengchao to lie down, he fell asleep and snored again.
Early the next morning, Gu Shengchao and Zhou Hualiang went to the high platform together.
"I don't know if Zhou Taibao can be accommodating and let me pass the test smoothly." Gu Shengchao said deliberately.
Zhou Hualiang said with a high spirit: "Don't be afraid, my uncle is ensuring your success." ”
When he came to the stage, Zhou Hualiang swaggered onto the high platform, but he was uncertain when he came down.
"What's wrong with the military advisor?" Gu Shengchao asked knowingly.
Zhou Hualiang said in a panic: "It's nothing, my uncle probably didn't wake up, so I'll go over and call him." ”
Looking at Zhou Hualiang's unruly appearance, Gu Shengchao was a little funny and a little pitiful.
A person who is powerless has to do his best to survive in such a chaotic world.
He has been floating since he was a child, and the feeling that life is worse than death is unforgettable.
With no backers, no connections, no resources, and fighting alone, it is difficult for a normal person to climb to the sky, and it is even more difficult for a waste person like Zhou Hualiang to survive.
Gu Shengchao heard someone on the stage speak, and asked them to compete on the last day of martial arts, so he slowly walked up behind everyone.
It turned out that this competition needed to select eleven people as Tianqing Gongzi, but there were only twenty-one people left on the last day, and the number of people who caught the competition was not enough.
After discussion among the CPIC present, it was decided to settle the matter by drawing lots.
Ten tenkans were written on each of the twenty-one slips of paper, and one of the slips of paper was written nothing.
Those who get a blank note will be automatically promoted, and the rest will be tested one by one according to the corresponding heavenly stems.
Tian Mang wrote the note and waited for the ink to dry, then kneaded it into a ball, and wrapped it with a layer of paper on the outside, so that no one could see whether there was handwriting or not.
The paper ball was thrown on the table at will, and everyone was nervous and excited, afraid of getting the one with the words.
"I'll come first."
Gu Shengchao walked to the table with a big grin, pinched a paper ball with his hand, opened it under the attention of everyone, and there was a "A" word on it, and he was in the first game.
The rest of the crowd talked a lot, and got their own paper ball in anxiety.
"I don't have a word on it, so I don't have to try."
The last game is full of masters, and it is certainly lucky to be able to not participate.
The one who got the blank note jumped up and down, and was very excited.
After a short break, Gu Shengchao and another person who also got "A" began to compete.
The man danced with a long stick, and he could feel the wind brought by the long stick from ten feet away.
The flags planted around the high platform were swept by the stick wind, and all the banners were shaken outward, and everyone watching the battle in the audience could intuitively feel his strong internal force.
Although Gu Shengchao had the iron arm magic to protect his body, he had no intention of fighting, and pretended to fight for more than 50 rounds, pretending not to pay attention, gathering all his internal force on his back and taking a hard beating, and at the same time jumping off the stage with both feet.
In the exclamation of everyone, Gu Shengchao rolled a few times to unload the power of the fall, and then pretended to be injured and got up with difficulty, deliberately staggered a few steps before he said to the stage: "The skills are not as good as others, and the heart of defeat is convinced." ”
Ma Guanshan was under the stage, how could Gu Shengchao jump far away, and when he rushed over to help, Gu Shengchao had already stood up on his own.
"Master, you're not injured, are you?"
The iron arm gate is the most particular about internal training, and he is not afraid of swords, guns, swords, halberds, and is not afraid of a wooden stick.
"It's okay, if you lose, you lose, let's go over there and sit down." Gu Shengchao put one arm on Ma Guanshan's shoulder, and the two slowly walked away, leaving the crowd of onlookers.
"Master, you deliberately lost the game, right?"
Seeing that there was no one around, Ma Guanshan whispered the doubts in his heart.
Gu Shengchao moved his arms and said with a smile: "The Tianqing Gang is not a place to live for a long time, I have to leave tonight, so the outcome of the game is not important to me." ”
He advised: "After I leave, you have to practice seriously for yourself, and the rest is all up to you." ”
"I will follow you, and I will follow you wherever you go."
Ma Guanshan said without thinking: "I have the strength to support myself, as long as Master Gu doesn't dislike me, I still want to practice with you." ”
This result was beyond Gu Shengchao's expectations, and he suddenly had no idea.
Ma Guanshan continued: "I know that I am stupid, even my father dislikes me, I was beaten a lot when I was a child, only Master Gu patiently taught me kung fu, I will follow you." ”
Gu Shengchao was helpless, so he had to say: "It's okay for you to follow me, but you must have a good character, but if you do anything that hurts nature and reason, I will never keep you." ”
"I will definitely listen to Master Gu and not do crooked deeds." Ma Guanshan assured at the moment that Mei Zizi followed Gu Shengchao's side.
It was still early, and the two of them practiced on the boulder halfway up the mountain.
After Gu Shengchao pointed out the essentials of the movements and formulas, he sat under the tree and watched Maguanshan practice over and over again.
The rocks under the tree were low, and it was uncomfortable to sit on them, and Gu Shengchao always felt that something was holding him back.
He touched it with his hand, but it was the small folding fan that Fang Ju gave him a few days ago.
I took out the folding fan and opened the fan, one side is a picture of a beauty, and the other side is three big characters "Happy Fang".
With a gentle wave, a faint fragrance penetrates into the nostrils, making people think about it.
Ma Guanshan couldn't hear Gu Shengchao's guidance, thinking that there was a fork in the practice, turned his head to look, and saw him looking at a folding fan in a daze, and walked over cautiously.
"Master Gu has something on his mind?"
Gu Shengchao pointed the three words "Happy Fang" on the folding fan towards him: "Do you know this place? ”
Ma Guanshan hesitated for a moment and said in a low voice: "I know, in the county town that turned over the opposite peak, the girls inside are as beautiful as flowers." If the master likes it, the disciple will arrange a beautiful one for the master. ”
"Get out!"
Gu Shengchao was angry and threw the folding fan on him.
Ma Guanshan was inexplicable, picked up the folding fan and said, "Then this fan, where did Master Gu come from?" ”
Gu Shengchao waved his hand: "Don't care about these for now, let me ask you, how long will it take if we go over the mountain?" ”
"An hour."
"How long does it take to ride a horse or a car?"
Ma Guanshan calculated: "The mountain road is tortuous and winding, and it takes at least three hours to ride. ”
"Is there an inn near Happy Place?" Gu Shengchao was thinking about his thoughts.
Ma Guanshan introduced: "There are many, and there is one opposite the Happy Workshop. Originally, the guests were looking for fun in the happy house, but when they were full, they had to spend one night in the inn, so the inn business was also prosperous. ”
Gu Shengchao took out a few ingots of silver and handed them to him, and ordered: "You pack your luggage now, drive my carriage and leave here to stay at the inn opposite the Happy Place, and I will look for you in the evening." ”
Ma Guanshan was delighted, and leaned closer and said: "The master still figured it out and wanted to find a girl to relieve his boredom." ”
"Looking for a fight."
Gu Shengchao kicked him lightly: "Tianqing Gang camp, there are many cars and cars during the day, you are not conspicuous, it is inconvenient for someone to patrol the night after dark, I made an appointment at night, you go to find a room first, and they and I will go over to find you." ”
"Yes, I'm going to prepare."
Ma Guanshan came over with a small bag after a short time, and Gu Shengchao led him to find the BMW to chase the wind.
Since chasing the wind and following Gu Shengchao, from Beihu to the Dawu Dynasty and then to the Xileng Kingdom, the fierceness on the grassland has long been worn out, Gu Shengchao and it are intimate, and let Ma Guanshan control and leave.
Gu Shengchao had already made up his mind, lying alone on the boulder halfway up the mountainside, just waiting for Fang Ju to arrive after dusk, and waiting for Shui Linglong and Zhuang Lutao to find them and leave here together.
