Volume 1: The Sword Rises in the East Chapter 21: Makes You Worried
It's only been a few days in the cave, and it's been a thousand years in the world.
Without the harassment of Gu Yuntao and Luo Shen Temple, Gu Ming's life has been much more stable these days, and his daily task is to stay in the cave to practice Moyun Jue and exercise his physique, as for the pills to eat, Zhang Qing has helped him run errands.
Occasionally, a few short-sighted warriors found this place, trying in vain to kill Gu Ming to make huge profits, but they all became Gu Ming's true qi buns.
However, such drawbacks were also very obvious, without sufficient external True Qi supplements, Gu Ming's cultivation progress was obviously much slower.
Seven or eight days have passed in the blink of an eye, and Gu Ming is still stuck in the Moyun Sanzhong, and there is still a gap between him and the Moyun Quadruple.
Although it was barely enough, Gu Ming always felt that he had no bottom in his heart.
Tomorrow is the time for Tianwu to discuss the sword.
"Now the city has become lively, many martial artists and other sects participating in the competition have come to live in the city, and the city lord has also personally come out to control the overall situation and built a martial arts competition ring in the square."
Zhang Qing said as he untied the cloth bag and handed Gu Ming today's ingredients.
"The Gu family has selected five disciples this year, but apart from me, there is only one master of the Nine Levels of Imperial Qi, and the rest of them are all Triple or Quadruple Imperial Qi, and their quality is obviously inferior to other families and sects," Zhang Qing sighed: "Looking at it this way, this year, the Gu family is afraid that it will fall out of the four major families." ”
Gu Ming didn't make a sound, but he was inevitably disappointed in his heart.
Although he doesn't have a good impression of the Gu family now, after all, it is the place where he was born and raised, and it is the family that his father Gu Tianshan pulled together, and Gu Ming still has some feelings for him.
Gu Ming knew that the root cause of the Gu family's decline was the fall of his father and Gu Yuntao's control, and the only way to revive the glory of the Gu family was to get rid of Gu Yuntao.
As for Gu Yi, his nature is not too bad, if there is a virtuous head of the family who can preside over the overall situation, Gu Yi can also be a virtuous minister who assists one party, but there is still value to be left behind.
recalled the cruel words that Gu Ming said to Gu Yuntao on the day of the clan refining day.
Now that he's been reborn, it's time to cash it in!
"I won't leave you to eat today, so you can go back to training and get ready for tomorrow's game."
Zhang Qing hurriedly gave up his hand and turned to leave.
After he left, Gu Ming also got up and walked out of the cave.
"Let's go out for a walk today."
……
After a while, Gu Ming came to the place where the ring was built.
Indeed, as Zhang Qing said, today's street market is much more lively than usual, and the streets are full of hawkers and wandering tourists, discussing the upcoming excitement.
The officials of the City Lord's Mansion were even more busy, commanding this and that, and they couldn't wait to split one person into three to use.
This time, the Tianwu Sword Discussion seems to be more grand than in previous years.
When I came to the square, it was even more crowded with people, in addition to the craftsmen who built the ring, there were also many warriors who came in advance to familiarize themselves with the venue.
With a glance, Gu Ming quickly discovered the teams of the Tang family, the Luo family, and the Luo family.
In addition, there are some disciples of the sect who cannot be named.
As for the Gu family's team, it must be because of neglect to exercise, and they are sharpening their guns at home at the moment.
At this moment, Gu Ming suddenly noticed that a gorgeously dressed girl who looked like a fairy walked into the ring and discussed something with the official in charge of the place.
"Tang Yusu!"
Gu Ming's heart trembled, and he hurriedly walked towards the ring.
Tang Yusu quickly finished discussing with the official, and was about to step down, but at a glance, he saw a familiar figure in the audience.
"Gu ......"
Seeing Gu Ming put his finger in front of his lips, Tang Yusu had no choice but to hold back his voice, quickly stepped off the stage, and pulled Gu Ming aside.
"Why are you here? Where have you been these days? Do you know how worried Ling'er is about you? ”
Gu Ming smiled helplessly: "The experience these days is a bit complicated, let's find a quiet place and tell you slowly." ”
Tang Yusu nodded, and took advantage of no one to pay attention, and secretly took Gu Ming home.
At this time, the Tang family was empty, and most of the members and elders led the participating disciples to familiarize themselves with the venue, and Gu Ming easily slipped into the Tang family's compound.
When he returned to Tang Yusu's boudoir, he saw Gu Ling sitting on the bed, carefully practicing embroidery.
"Sister Tang, why did you come back so soon? I haven't done this embroidery yet......"
Suddenly, Gu Ling noticed two shadows entering the room, one of which seemed to be a little familiar.
Gu Ling hurriedly looked up, and after a moment of stunned, his eyes instantly moistened.
"Brother!"
Gu Ling dropped the embroidery, and the wind rushed into Gu Ming's arms.
"Where did you go! There are people out there who want your life these days, do you know how worried Sister Tang and I are about you? ”
"You...... You big badass! Badass, badass, badass! ”
The immature little fist kept pounding on Gu Ming's chest.
But after fighting, Gu Ling couldn't hold back anymore, and fell into Gu Ming's arms and cried.
Tang Yusu, who was on the side, couldn't help but bow his head and wipe away his tears.
"Good, I'm worried about you,"
Gu Ming's nose was sour, and he hugged Gu Ling tighter.
……
After a while, Gu Ming finally calmed down the emotions of the two.
The three of them sat on their knees, and Gu Ming also told the experience of the past few days one by one.
"Brother, you came back suddenly, did you really want to participate in the martial arts sword discussion that day?"
Gu Ming nodded.
Tang Yusu was a little worried: "But you just escaped so many pursuits, and you have to go up to fight for your life......
Gu Ling was also on the side, nodding in accord.
The two of them looked forward to the stars and the moon, and finally looked forward to Gu Ming's return, but they didn't expect that they had just come out of the wolf's den and entered the tiger's mouth.
"Don't worry, I'm not as good as I used to be, and I'm just a little bit of a sword to deal with it."
Gu Ming smiled and stroked Gu Ling's head, and then looked at Tang Yusu: "By the way, Yusu, I see that you just discussed with the people of the City Lord's Mansion on the stage?" ”
"Well, I'm the master of ceremonies for this Tianwu Sword Debate."
Gu Ming nodded: "In that case, can you help me get the list of participants and the order of appearance tomorrow?" ”
"It's easy, you wait, I'll get it."
After a while, I saw Tang Yusu hand a list to Gu Ming.
Gu Ming glanced at it roughly, except for some disciples of the four major families and the City Lord's Mansion, they were basically small sects that could not be named.
But it's no wonder that Bujian City is a small border city, and the quality of the sect standing here is not high.
But among them, there was a sect that caught Gu Ming's attention.
"White Rainbow Sword Sect?"
Tang Yusu explained: "The White Rainbow Sword Sect is the sect of Lancang City, this is the first time to come back to participate in the Heavenly Martial Sword, it is said that its head is the White Rainbow Sword Monarch will also be present tomorrow, and the city lord attaches great importance to it!" ”
Gu Ming nodded.
Although he was not from Lancang City, he had also heard of the name of the White Rainbow Sword Sect.
It's not a big sect, though.
But its top boss is located in the top sect of the imperial capital - Da Luo Sword Sect!
Except for me, I am all outside, and I am holding a sword into Daluo.
No one in the Dayu Dynasty knows!
What's more, the opponent of the White Rainbow Sword Sect in the preliminary round was the Gu family!
If the Gu family is completely defeated in the preliminary round, not only will they fall off the altar, but they will also become a laughing stock in the future!
Although Gu Ming doesn't have much sense of belonging to the current Gu family, it is the foundation that his father takes care of after all.
He didn't want the Gu family to have a miserable life......
"In addition to the White Rainbow Sword Sect, there are many sect teams from other cities this time, such as this Blood God Cliff, Feather Spirit Palace, etc., although their reputation is not as good as that of the White Rainbow Sword Sect, but the disciples are also quite powerful," Tang Yusu introduced: "Aren't you planning to take refuge in other sects?" I think you can consider these sects, compared to the White Rainbow Sword Sect, the difficulty of these sects will be lower. ”
Gu Ming was thoughtful, closed his eyes and asked Su Jia's opinion.
"These sects are actually good, but I secretly feel that this White Rainbow Sword Sect will have a fate with you, I suggest you focus on it, if you encounter an opportunity, don't neglect it."
Gu Ming nodded and handed the list back.
"Thank you, Yu Su, I will do my best tomorrow, if I grow up in other sects, I will definitely come back to repay the kindness."
But hearing this, Tang Yusu was stunned.
Then, he got up with a wry smile: "It's not too early, it's time for my family to come back, I'll help you find a hotel, and you can take Ling'er to stay for one night." ”
Gu Ming was about to ask, but saw Gu Ling pull his cuffs and shook his head.
