Chapter 3 Counting is Counting
Gao Qi returned to the room, the mystery in his heart was unsolved, but he couldn't figure it out for a while. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info He was lying on the bed, thinking of the words of the five tigers in Guanzhong on Jun Mountain in Dongting Lake, the person who eavesdropped outside the window of the teacher's study, and the bright and moving face of Chen Wanxing, his thoughts were messy, and he gradually fell asleep in a groggy state.
When it was time to play a card, Gao Qi suddenly heard an exclamation from the direction of the study in his sleep, and then woke up, grabbed the jade flute by the pillow and rushed out of the door. He was extremely fast, and he came to the study with a few ups and downs, but saw that the teacher was already standing in the study, looking at the beams. Gao Qi looked at the beam of the house and saw that there was a person trapped on it, but this person was curled up and couldn't see his face.
At this time, Lin Zhiqi had also arrived, and then several more people heard the sound.
Chen Xiaolian said: "Gao Qi, go and put him down." Gao Qi nodded and obeyed, released the man from the net, and sealed his acupuncture points. Gao Qi looked closely at the person's dress, as if he was a student in the academy, and when he looked at his face, he didn't recognize it.
Chen Xiaolian saw the man's face, shook his head, neither surprised nor angry, and only said: "Xiping, what are you doing here late at night?" The person's surname is Du, his name is Jiang, and his name is Xiping, he is a student of Chen Xiaolian, he was shocked and frightened at this time, and he was already scared into a cold sweat, and only stammered: "I... Iā" I couldn't say a word again.
Chen Xiaolian said: "In the past two months, you have been in and out of this back house several times, what are you looking for?" Gao Qi thought to himself: "The teacher really knew about this person's whereabouts, but I don't know how the teacher knew about it?" Lin Zhiqi also thought in his heart: "Uncle Chen doesn't know martial arts, but he can tie this person to the beams of the house. Chen Wanxing thought: "It's really interesting for Daddy to hang people on the beams." ā
Chen Xiaolian said: "Xiping, you are a scholar, you are a thief, you have been in the cold window for ten years, and you have paid for half your life." When Du Xiping heard this, he wept bitterly and repented: "Teacher, I was wrong, please forgive me, I don't dare again." Chen Xiaolian said: "Who instructed you?" Du Xiping was suddenly frightened, looked anxious, shook his head and said: "I can't say, I can't say, if I say it, I won't die." When everyone saw his expression, as if they had seen a terrifying scene, they all felt a chill down their spines.
Gao Qi unlocked his acupoint, and Du Xiping immediately fell to the ground, terrified. Gao Qi pressed the palm of his hand on his back, and Du Xiping suddenly felt a hot breath slowly injected into his body, and his mood eased slightly. Chen Xiaolian saw that his expression was a little calm, and said: "Xiping, what you are looking for does not exist in this world, if you want to hide it, you will also have to worry about your life." Du Xiping groaned slightly, and said, "Someone gave 100,000 taels of silver...... and when he said these words, he stopped his mouth, opened his mouth, and looked straight ahead.
As soon as Gao Qi stopped his voice, he immediately noticed the footsteps outside the study, and his figure flashed, and he had swept out of the door, but when he saw the figure on the east wall, he jumped and disappeared into the night. Gao Qi stepped down a little, like an arrow off the string, and chased after it.
Although it was dark night, Gao Qi's eyes were very sharp. I saw a person dressed in a night suit ten feet away, running wildly. Gao Qi stepped under his feet, and the distance between the two had been reduced to two zhang in an instant, seeing that Gao Qi could catch up with him immediately, the man suddenly raised his right hand backwards, under the moonlight, the silver stars were dotted, Gao Qi was shocked, and hurriedly leaned back, but saw several silver lights flying rapidly in front of him, thanks to his light skills, otherwise he would have been hit by this silent but extremely fast hidden weapon. It's just that in this way, he slowed down, but the man had already fled into the mountains and forests, and he couldn't catch up no matter what.
Gao Qi stopped chasing, looked for a moment underground, and saw that those hidden weapons were glowing silver in the moonlight, Gao Qi was afraid that the hidden weapons were poisoned, so he tore off a piece of clothing and put it on his hand, picked up a few, and couldn't help but be surprised, the secret weapon was actually a steel needle as thin as a cow's hair, and he was secretly thinking about what sect and faction were used to using the secret weapon, but saw that Lin Zhiqi also rushed over. Lin Zhiqi also heard the footsteps of the man in black in the study, he was closer to the door, but his light skills were far from Gao Qi, so it was Gao Qi who grabbed the front.
Lin Zhiqi saw Gao Qi bowing his head and pondering, and asked, "Senior brother, what did you find?" Gao Qi said: "Let him run away." Gao Qi suddenly remembered something and shouted: "It's not good, don't have a plan to divert the tiger from the mountain." When he saw Lin Zhiqi coming, he remembered that there was a lot of danger in the study, although Chen Wanxing knew a little about martial arts, his skills were too shallow after all, he suspected that the teacher was extremely martial arts, but it was not confirmed, if the enemy went at this time, no one could stop him. Hurry back to the study.
Chen Xiaolian saw Gao Qi coming back and asked, "How is it?" Gao Qi said: "I didn't catch up." Chen Xiaolian said: "Xiping is dead. As he spoke, he took out a magnet with several steel needles as thin as a cow's hair sticking to it, which had been taken from Du Xiping's tongue.
Seeing this, Gao Qi took out the steel needle he had just picked up. Chen Xiaolian said: "Gao Qi, have you seen or heard someone use such a secret weapon when you have been walking on the rivers and lakes for a long time?" Gao Qi had been thinking about it in his mind, and when he saw the teacher asking, he said: " According to my master, the steel needle used by the Dongfang Bai predecessors is three inches long, which is several times thicker than the ordinary embroidery needle, in addition, the blue blood needle of the Laoshan school, the plum blossom needle and the sharp hook needle of the Jiuhua Mountain Medical Immortal Lu Jiuling predecessors, the Xiuyu Shen Needle used by the Su family of the Shen Needle Gate of Jiangning Mansion, the shortest is also an inch long, and the bee tail needle used by the old man of the famous ape in western Sichuan, although the needle body is also very small, but it is cast by gold and steel, and the volume is very heavy. But this silver needle is as thin as a cow's hair, light as nothing, and it is never seen before when it is sent out. ā
Gao Qi said in one breath the sects and masters who use steel needles as hidden weapons in the rivers and lakes, such as a number of treasures, and everyone present secretly admired. Lin Zhiqi said: "If someone can send this needle out three zhang away, the martial arts are so high that it is really incredible." Gao Qi nodded yes. Chen Xiaolian looked out the window, leisurely, and everyone saw that his expression was different, and they didn't dare to disturb. After a while, Chen Xiaolian instructed the servant to place Du Xiping's body in the backyard, and said: "There is nothing to do tonight, you are also tired, go back to the room to rest." ā
Although Gao Qi was worried about Chen Xiaolian, he saw that his expression was different, and he didn't dare to disobey, so he had to go out of the study with everyone. Lin Zhiqi walked at the end, and suddenly found a purple-clothed girl standing next to Chen Wanxing, with a graceful and dignified back, thinking that it was Chen Wanyue, the eldest daughter of Chen Xiaolian. He didn't know what to do, but the two sisters suddenly turned around. Chen Wanxing said with a smile: "Brother Gao Qi, Brother Lin, let's go back to the room first, you guys rest early." ā
Lin Zhiqi and Chen Wanyue met their eyes, and both lowered their heads. Lin Zhiqi couldn't help but secretly squint at Chen Wanyue, and saw that she was gentle and virtuous, chaste and dignified, very different from Chen Wanxing's lively and cheerful personality, but somehow, he had a respect for her, but he didn't have the slightest love.
Chen Wanxing saw that the two of them were shy, very restrained, sneered, and pulled her sister back to the room. The second daughter left, and Lin Zhiqi stood in place, dazed. Gao Qi bumped his elbow on him and said with a smile: "What's the matter? Brother Lin drank the ecstasy soup?" Lin Zhiqi's face turned red, and he hurriedly said goodbye to him and returned to his room.
Gao Qi was worried about Chen Xiaolian's safety, so he didn't go back to the room, he stood in the courtyard in front of the study, staring at the bright moon. After a while, I heard Chen Xiaolian say, "Gao Qi, come in." Gao Qi pushed open the door of the study and saw Chen Xiaolian looking at the fine needles in a daze.
After Chen Xiaolian waited for Gao Qi to come in, he put down the thin needles, ordered him to sit down, and said, "Have you ever heard of the name of the Ghost Gate Hades?" Gao Qi said: "The student has never heard of it. Chen Xiaolian said: "It's common for you not to hear of it, but thirty years ago, the name of the Ghost Gate Hades King was really known to everyone. Gao Qi had never heard the teacher talk about the things on the rivers and lakes, thinking that he was erudite and Confucian, so he naturally disdained to understand the grievances and vendettas on the rivers and lakes. Chen Xiaolian said: "The martial arts of this ghost gate king is not as good as a few top masters in the world, but it is also at that time, this person is ruthless, extremely vicious, if anyone provokes him, he will definitely repay a hundred times, he has two things that are feared by the people in the rivers and lakes, one is a very powerful secret weapon, and the other is a very terrifying poison, so the rivers and lakes are afraid of him and talk about color change. Gao Qi said: "What this person did was not a chivalrous person, and he must have been removed by any senior, so there is no such person on the rivers and lakes." Do you think that this cow hair needle is this person's secret weapon?" Chen Xiaolian said: "Yes, I think about it, and there is no one else." Gao Qi said: "Such a light and thin silver needle can be launched so sharply, this person's martial arts are probably ......."
Gao Qi pursued the man in black, he avoided the man's secret weapon with the best light skills, and he didn't realize it at first, but when he carefully examined the secret weapon, it was as thin as a cow's hair, and he was really shocked and frightened. I thought that what this person did was despicable, so I knew that it was really inappropriate to describe him as the pinnacle and the first in the world, so I only said "I am afraid of this person's martial arts" and stopped talking.
Chen Xiaolian knew his intentions, so he said: "If this person is the best in the world in martial arts, it may not be true. This needle is called the Ghost Gate Hook Soul Needle, which is stored in the syringe, and when it is fired, it is silently sent out. It's hard to resist. When Gao Qi heard this, he thought to himself that if it weren't for his light skills, coupled with the moonlight shining on the silver needle, he would probably have died under this ghost door soul hooking needle.
Gao Qi suddenly said: "Didn't this ghost gate Hades have been killed a long time ago?" Chen Xiaolian said: "He was seriously injured and fell into the deep valley, I thought he was dead, but I didn't ......expect it, I didn't expect it" Chen Xiaolian's words seemed to Gao Qi, and it seemed to be talking to himself, and there was also worry in his words. Gao Qi didn't know what the teacher meant, and said: "Could it be that this ghost gate Hades is not dead?" But the man in black has mediocre skills, and his martial arts skills are not very high, how can he be a big devil who everyone is afraid of?" Chen Xiaolian said: "Although you are young, you are strong in martial arts, and you have rich experience in the rivers and lakes, you must not be mistaken, I think that the man in black is the son and nephew of the ghost gate Hades, or an apprentice." ā
Gao Qi said: "If it is his junior, he is not afraid, and the teacher does not have to care." ā
Chen Xiaolian didn't seem to hear Gao Qi's words, and only muttered: "Thirty years, thirty years, thirty years and again." Chen Xiaolian looked strange, and suddenly felt like a dream for a while. After a while, Chen Xiaolian woke up like a dream, and saw Gao Qiwu looking at himself with a concerned expression. Chen Xiaolian smiled slightly and said, "Go back and rest, the teacher is fine." As he spoke, he took Gao Qi out of the study.
Gao Qi returned to the room and saw that it was already Yin Pai time. He practiced Xuanmen martial arts, and he would get up to practice every day, and he would no longer take off his clothes and fall asleep, sit cross-legged and sit down, and silently perform Xuangong.
