Huang Bufu, the head of the Night Ghost Sect, fled in embarrassment, he only came here to refine the "Half-Step Ascension Pill" using the unique medicinal materials here, and the matter should not come again.

Gu Shengchao came to the dead disciple and told Lu Jin to stay away, lest the sudden burst of the poison pill hurt her.

He didn't dare to risk himself this time, so he took a deep breath and held his breath as he groped in the disciple's arms.

As a result, only the poison pill was found, and nothing else was found.

This person is estimated to be just an ordinary disciple, and he is not qualified to equip all kinds of poisons and antidotes.

Holding up the poison pill in his palm, Gu Shengchao couldn't understand how to use it, why the Night Ghost Gate could control the timing of the burst at will.

But it didn't bother him.

Although he didn't know how to use the Night Ghost Gate, Gu Shengchao had his own knack.

Just like a worm Gu, it first condenses a thin layer of true qi on the surface of the poison pill, and then throws it out forcefully, causing the true qi to shrink violently and oppress the poison pill.

"Bang!"

The poison pill burst in the distance, rising in a thick cloud of pink dust.

Seeing the dense fog approaching his side, the ancient saint shouted "not good", turned around and pulled Lu Jin to the side.

Watching the smoke slowly drift into the distance, gradually dispersing and disappearing into the wind, Gu Shengchao let out a sigh of relief and said happily, "It's so dangerous, just now I actually let the poison pill explode in the upper wind, almost poisoning myself."

Lu Jin smiled: "Isn't it better to keep the poison pill, and you don't have to take risks."

Gu Shengchao shook his head and said, "It's even more dangerous to keep it, if it explodes while asleep, wouldn't it be a fool's death."

Lu Jin stuck out his tongue mischievously: "Yes, it's fried well, we won't need it anyway."

It was still early, and Gu Shengchao invited, "Let's go, let's go to my old house first to see what it looks like?"

Lu Jin accompanied Gu Shengchao to the main entrance, and the word "Gufu" on the plaque at the door was brand new and shiny, which was extremely inconsistent with the quaint gate.

Gu Shengchao knew that it was his cousin Gu Shenglong who replaced it after occupying this place, but unfortunately there was no blessing to enjoy, and the whole family was killed by Huang Bufu and used this place as a place to refine poison.

The door lock on the door has been rusted, Gu Shengchao stretched out his hand and twisted it hard, the door lock fell off, he was about to push the door in, and there was a bell sound behind the door.

Gu Shengchao hesitated, but still pushed the door open.

"Squeak."

The heavy door opened, and a figure rushed towards him.

Gu Shengchao had already taken precautions, grabbed the hair on the back of its neck in time with his right hand, and threw it into the distance.

A big yellow dog rolled around in the grass a few times, stood up and grinned at Gu Shengchao, and roared wildly.

"Let's go, your master has fled, go after him!" Gu Shengchao didn't want to hurt the dog's life, and pointed into the distance.

The big yellow dog looked in the direction of Gu Shengchao's finger, hesitated for a moment, and galloped away in that direction.

The two walked into the courtyard side by side, the first courtyard was the martial arts training ground and the meeting room, and the second courtyard was a spacious lobby in the center, where Gu Shengchao killed the enemy Zhao Yinhu.

At this moment, there are many casseroles and clay pots set up in the lobby, and the strong smell of medicinal herbs is pungent, it seems that they are refining poisons here.

Around the back is the Sanjin Courtyard, the center is the garden, and the second floor in the back is used as a bedroom.

Gu Shengchao came to a room downstairs first and was reluctant to leave for a long time, Lu Jin was curious, what nostalgia there was for the empty room.

"What's wrong with Big Brother Gu, are you uncomfortable?" Lu Jin was puzzled.

Gu Shengchao shook his head sadly: "I'm fine, I've lived in this room since I can remember, and I just remember the good memories of my childhood."

Reluctantly walked out, Gu Shengchao led Lu Jin upstairs and came to the room where they were held last night.

"This is my father's and mother's bedroom, I remember that the secret room was empty, I often hid in it to play hide and seek, it should be Zhao Yinhu killed my father, and hid all the gold, silver and jewelry looted inside, and no one else knew about him after he died." Gu Shengchao guessed.

But he only guessed half right, and he only knew the secret

All the others later died, leaving all the treasures to him by accident.

Behind the small building is a small vegetable garden, all deserted and overgrown with weeds.

Back in front of the small building, Gu Shengchao couldn't hold on anymore when he touched the scene, knelt down and cried bitterly, "Father, mother, it's too late for the child to come back unfilial."

Lu Jin missed his father and mother who were far away in the boat gang, and couldn't help but shed tears and stood aside crying.

After a while, a few people held up hoes and sickles, and cautiously walked into the courtyard to check, led by the old man of the inn.

"You two, what are you crying here, aren't you afraid of disturbing the ghosts?" One of the villagers whispered, looking around from time to time, for fear that something would rush out of the room and hurt them.

Gu Shengchao suppressed his tears, wiped away his tears and said, "Powerful ghosts are also human, they have been driven away by us, there will be no more ghosts here."

"You killed that guy out there too?" Another asked.

Gu Shengchao nodded: "Exactly, I bother you to bury that person, and from then on the town will be peaceful."

Several villagers looked at each other and discussed retreating in a low voice.

Seeing them leaving, Gu Shengchao got up and said guiltily, "Let the girl laugh, so you can cry with me."

Lu Jin said with red eyes, "I don't know what's wrong, I just want to cry."

"Let's go, go upstairs and rest."

There were tables and chairs upstairs, Gu Shengchao and Lu Jin sat down, both silent and thinking about their own thoughts.

Lu Jin was a little tired and drowsy.

"This is it, they killed people and haven't had time to escape, and a few of us have been watching outside."

There was a noise outside, and Lu Jin woke up suddenly, and looked up to see a group of officers and soldiers rushing in.

"What happened?" Lu Jin didn't react in a trance.

Gu Shengchao sighed and said, "This is typical ingratitude, when the haunting was in danger, everyone was prevaricating, and no one dared to take risks. Now that we let the town be peaceful, they will be able to take credit and impose the charge of murder on us, killing two birds with one stone."

Seeing a lot of the coldness, warmth and squalor of the world, Gu Shengchao was calm and not angry.

In an instant, the officers and soldiers had already gone upstairs, and the man at the head broke in with a knife, staring at the ancient saint and saying viciously: "There was a murder in the town this morning, and you killed the person outside!"

"It's me, what's wrong?" Gu Shengchao sat still.

"Heh, what's the matter, come with me to the yamen to confess." The man shook the chains and was about to go up to Gu Shengchao's neck to put on it.

"Bang!"

Lu Jin punched the man out of the doorway.

"Didn't I exert myself?" Lu Jin realized that with just a light blow, a strong man flew out, and he couldn't do it at all.

"Tell your county magistrate, I'll only talk to him." Gu Shengchao said calmly.

"If you want to rebel, isn't it possible for you to see the county magistrate if you want to?" Before the other officials understood what was going on, they pounced on them with a large number of people.

Gu Shengchao didn't embarrass them, dodged and dodged, throwing them downstairs one by one.

"I'll say it again, tell your county commander to come and speak." Gu Shengchao stood at the door of the second floor and shouted loudly.

"You wait." Seeing that they couldn't get a bargain, those officers and soldiers left one after another, and did not forget to put down their cruel words when they left.

Lu Jin also felt funny and asked, "Brother Gu, did you say that the county order will come?"

"Yes, I'm afraid he will only dare to command from outside the town, and order these officers and soldiers to attack us with bows and crossbows." Gu Shengchao knows the inside story too well.

"What should we do, wait and fight with the officers and soldiers?" Lu Jin's skills have increased greatly, and he is not afraid of fighting.

Gu Shengchao shook his head: "This is my old mansion, there can be no more damage, we will wait for the county order outside the town."

The two swaggered out, and those villagers did not dare to stop them, but they followed from a distance, and estimated that they would report to the county government when the time came.

Gu Shengchao pretended not to see them and came to the shade under the trees outside the town.

In less than an hour, a large number of officers and soldiers gathered around a sedan chair carried by four people, and they rushed in a mighty manner

Come.

Some villagers ran over from the side to report, pointing at Gu Shengchao.

After a short time, all the officers and soldiers held bows and crossbows to surround Gu Shengchao and Lu Jin.

Seeing their clumsy appearance, Gu Shengchao knew that they couldn't do harm to Lu Jin, so he sneered, "Tell your county commander to come forward and admonish."

"Die hard, brethren, shoot them with arrows." The man who was knocked downstairs by Lu Jin with a punch just now ordered loudly.

Gu Shengchao saw the sedan chair of the county order lifting the sedan curtain from a distance, and one person poked his head out to watch, only the master was accompanied, and there were four sedan chair men on standby, and there were no other officers and soldiers to guard.

It's far from the border, and there are no bandits, and it seems that the days are too peaceful for them to slack off.

Gu Shengchao jumped lightly and came to the sedan chair of the county order.

Where had the county commander seen such kung fu, he trembled with fright and said, "Stop him."

The master was originally a literati who played with the pen, and the sedan chair man had no strength and no martial arts, where could he stop Gu Shengchao.

He strode forward and grabbed the county magistrate by the neck and pulled him out of the palanquin.

The county commander was so frightened that his soul was scattered, his legs and feet were weak and he couldn't stand steadily, he sat down on the ground and begged bitterly: "A good man spares his life, I don't dare anymore."
