Ten years later

Under the cloudless clear sky, on the altar in the center of the city, the long wind hunts and the colorful flags flutter.

Seven young Gu masters dressed in various witch robes gathered around the old apostle under the throne of the Great Gu Master, chatting non-stop.

"Where do you want to draw?"

"Where do you want to go?"

......

Although there is a constant battle between the eight departments, it is easy for young people to get along.

According to the old rules, the best of the new generation of Gu masters must go out to practice, and after returning, they can be named the chief Gu master of the headquarters. They are the most outstanding Gu masters in each department, and they are all full of spirit, and they have long been looking forward to going outside to show their strength.

Three days later, it's time to set off.

Today is the day to choose a prescription.

After drawing lots to choose a direction, they will follow each other and travel for three years. Except for Yi Se of the Heyi Department, who has been named the "Great Gu Master" and cannot leave Southern Qin, the other seven chief candidates have all arrived.

......

"Hmm...... The Western Regions, or Mobei. I heard that there were a lot of bandits there, and there must be many opportunities to practice Gu arts. ”

Jiang Jingyun, a Gu master of the Southern Qu Department who was full of bottles and cans on his body, shook his head and said to the Ka and Sha of the Beifang Department beside him. They have known each other since childhood, and their relationship is much closer than others.

"You idiot—"

Ka Hesha looked disgusted, rolled his eyes and said, "I've heard too much, right?!" The Western Regions and Mobei may not be able to see a single figure after walking for ten days and half a month...... I finally had the opportunity to go out to practice, and of course I had to go to the most prosperous, richest, and most populous place!"

"Where?" Jiang Jingyun was dumbfounded.

He was bent on chivalrous stories, where did he think about such a problem.

Gu, in the final analysis, is against people...... Sounds so reasonable!

Ka Hesha looked proud, and said with a posture, "Of course it's the south, Jiangnan or Xi......"

Before he finished speaking, his eyes froze, and he suddenly lost his voice.

In an instant, there was silence all around.

Jiang Jingyun followed and looked up, only to see a person walking slowly from not far away, with light steps and a graceful posture like an immortal outside the sky.

The visitor was dressed in a red witch robe, tightly wrapped from head to toe, with a wide brim that covered most of his face, and it was a girl from the long black hair that hung down and the soft side face.

Although she can't see the whole picture clearly, you can see that her complexion is very white, and she doesn't look like a woman on the plateau at all.

She's also a Gu Master?

How come you've never seen it?!

In the midst of all the attention, the girl went up to the altar and handed a letter to the old apostle.

The old apostle stared blankly at her, and threw himself to his knees.

With trembling hands, he took the letter, and he hurriedly read it with ten lines at a glance, "Goddess, you ......"

When those two words came out, everyone gasped.

This ...... who is so close to him Is it the legendary goddess?!

Three months ago, she used a piece of paper to argue with a "Sleeping Gu", scored first, and got the name of "Holy Gu Master". If they had the chance, each of them would like to ask her for advice.

"As Chitose-sama said in his letter, I will also participate in this experience. Her voice was so beautiful that it was like pearls falling on a jade plate.

The goddess actually wanted to go along, and everyone secretly cheered in their hearts.

"Yes...... It's ......"

Although the old apostle was surprised, it was indeed the will of Master Chitose Mu in black and white.

I vaguely heard that the goddess was going to give her body to Chitose Mu first. Suddenly, let her go to practice, and it will be three years, which is indeed weird. Out of prudence, he glanced at the two apostles behind him and motioned for them to go and check with the Great Gu Master.

......

"Eight, the white sign ——, southwest!" the old apostle shouted.

Chu Ge stepped forward and handed him the No. 8 sign in his hand.

"The Goddess ......"

The old apostle was startled, and hurriedly bowed his head and took back the sign.

From the South Qin Plateau to the southwest, it is the most prosperous Wei State, a little more biased route, you can also go to the rich and prosperous Shu land. Such a good lottery naturally made a group of cultivators envious.

Great Wei Jingzhou

Coming all the way from Qingluan Mountain, half a month passed in a hurry.

What disappointed the Gu masters was that not to mention learning Gu techniques together, the goddess hadn't even said a word for half a month, nor had she touched any of them. She always deliberately falls to the back of the team, eating, practicing, and resting...... It's all about finding a small corner and staying alone.

The reason is well known.

Before leaving, when they hurriedly prepared their belongings, the goddess had prepared such things as light shirts, gauze clothes, and rain gear. Sure enough, as the legend goes, she can be unpredictable. When everyone was nervous, she knew what she would win and where she was going.

She is reluctant to snoop on other people's secrets.

Alienation is her greatest kindness.

......

Eight people rode together, and Chu Ge walked last.

It's not that she doesn't want to talk to everyone, and she even cares a lot about their words and actions. The Gu masters of the Seven Divisions are really a group of carefree people. Every day as soon as he opened his eyes, he began to study Gu techniques, and he refused to rest until dark.

But she didn't dare to look at them directly, for fear of snooping on secrets they didn't want to be known, and even more afraid that her own secrets would be known to them.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but press the knife in her backpack.

This is the sacred artifact of the clan - the "Flame Breaker". Before she left home, she stole it by magic, and she didn't know why......

Breaking the flame can divide the spiritual flesh, devouring the light can destroy the original god, and the combination of the two can cut off everything in the world. If he hadn't won the opportunity to go out and practice with Chitose, he would have died from this knife at this time.

"It's almost time to leave Jingzhou, let's go our separate ways here and go in our own directions!" Ka and Sha's excited voice interrupted her thoughts.

The direction he drew was due east, and he could reach Yecheng by walking all the way. Although it is not as good as Jiangnan, it is also a prosperous place. Along the way, I couldn't hold back the excitement in my heart and wanted to go alone.

Hearing what he said, everyone stopped and began to pick up their belongings to see if there was anything they could give to their companions that they could not use.

"Whew-", a horse neighed.

In the blink of an eye, Chu Ge had already ridden away.

A goddess is a goddess, she walks neatly and neatly, leaving not a word of nonsense.

......

"Help——, help!"

A voice came from afar, and Chu Ge rode over only to find that a young Taoist priest was trapped in the water.

It seems that he doesn't know how to water, but he somehow waded to that position.

"Girl, help me—" the Taoist priest shouted hoarsely.

After just glancing at him, Chu Ge, who wanted to go into the water to save people, suddenly stopped.

She sat leisurely on the bank of the river, shook her horsewhip and asked, "Chen Liuxian...... Who are you? Why did you see me coming from afar, but you ran away to the middle of the water? Why did you want to go to Xishu with me? Are you very short of money, I don't have it—"

"Ahh

The boy in the water was startled, can this girl read minds?

With the treasure in the door on his body, it is too dangerous to go south alone. If you had a companion as cover, the situation would be very different. From afar, this girl was dressed as if she was of a different race, and she should be willing to have more than one traveling companion, but she would not be interested in the secrets of the door. He made this decision, pretending to be overboard and asking her to save him......

There are so many capable people in the world that they must not be underestimated! Today, when I meet someone who can read minds, he can be regarded as planting himself, and he can't complain about the fact that he can't be blamed, so he can only go back and increase his Taoism with logistics and cultivation.

The door of the eye to the heart, and the art of mind reading are all glimpsed from the eye.

He immediately avoided the girl's gaze, not wanting her to read more secrets. In an instant, I realized that her eyes were so beautiful, like a pool of autumn water, clear and translucent, without a trace of dirt.

No, the girl continued, "I can't go with you, I can't go to Wuwei County with you, and I can't help you look at the stall and let you go to find some senior brother." That'...... There will be, a lot...... A lot...... A lot of trouble. ”

Oh, my God!

I didn't look at the yellow calendar when I went out today, what kind of celestial person did he meet?!

(The follow-up story of Nan Qin is in "Falling Stars at Night", and the connection between the two books is finally finished.) That's the end of the book. Goodbye and peace and joy!)
