Chapter Fifty-Seven: Tangled Gao Jie

Hearing this earth-shattering secret, the Void Master's mood only fluctuated slightly, she had long suspected this when she heard about the civil strife in the Wenxiang Sect, but the evidence was insufficient.

After Gao Jie and Liu Zongmin listened, they had completely different reactions.

Gao Jie was naturally taken aback, while not ashamed of Wang Haoxian's actions, he was worried about Xu Hongru who was ordered to start an incident, and he even believed that this hasty uprising was actually an action planned by Wang Haoxian to get rid of Xu Hongru.

Liu Zongmin's reaction was very strange, he no longer had the worry that Fang Cai was seriously injured, but instead he was alienated and indifferent to Li Guoyong. He was not disappointed because Li Guoyong had done so many bad things, but because this master was not really a down-and-out blacksmith, but once the leader of the commanding party, rich and powerful, and he was the kind of person he hated the most.

It is precisely because of this hatred of the rich mentality that Liu Zongmin completely forgot Li Guoyong's kindness and nurturing feelings for him, and his heart gradually condensed into ice, and he also hated this dying master and no longer stepped forward.

Li Guo used all his remaining strength to tell the secret truth, and his breath became weaker and weaker, and when he was completely finished, he spurted out a few mouthfuls of blood, and he could no longer speak.

He looked at Master Pure Space with begging eyes, hoping to get forgiveness from her and Senior Brother Xu Xu Hongru, but Master Pure Space didn't look at him at all at all, turned around and walked out of the shop. In despair, Li Guoyong finally set his sights on his apprentice Liu Zongmin. What made him even more desperate was that Liu Zongmin's eyes were so cold that they were not weaker than those of the Pure Sky Master, as if he had never known him.

Li Guoyong couldn't laugh bitterly anymore, and finally had to laugh self-deprecatingly in his heart, and then tilted his head and died of anger against the pillar.

Once crisscrossed the rivers and lakes, as the leader of a sect, Li Guoyong, the "dragon catcher", died in the countryside, and there was no one close to him to collect his body, and the ending was embarrassing.

The void master outside the blacksmith shop felt that Li Guo was dying of anger, and his mood was complicated, he looked up at the sky where the autumn sun was high, and sighed faintly.

In fact, she has no hatred for Li Guoyong, and the struggle for power and profit within the Wenxiang Sect has nothing to do with her, but it is only because of Xu Hongru that she is ruthless and refuses to forgive. She also understood that not only the Smelling Fragrance Sect, but also other branches of the White Lotus Sect also had such a thing that the six relatives did not recognize, and there were also conspiracies and tricks running rampant everywhere. Without the White Lotus Holy Sect Master, the former Holy Sect would have been unrecognizable, which was also the reason why she had escaped from the world and become a monk back then.

Gao Jie came to later generations, and he knew more about the victims of these political struggles, he felt a lot of death for Li Guoyong, and had pity for his tragedy, at least he had repented many years ago, and was willing to give up his glory and wealth, and chose to hide in the countryside, which shows that his conscience is not clear. Besides, he has been guarding the secrets of the third prince Wang Haoxian for ten years, and he has no intention of revealing it at all, until he was hunted down to death, and he confided in hatred, which also shows that he is still a person who believes in his words and values love and righteousness.

Feeling generally, Gao Jie pulled Liu Zongmin, who was very reluctant, and simply collected Li Guoyong's body and buried it in a grave on a hillside outside the village, and set up a monument with a wooden board, which read: "The tomb of Li Guoyong, the dragon catcher", and the inscription was: "Liu Zongmin, an unfilial disciple".

Although Liu Zongmin was not willing to do these things, he did not disobey Gao Jie's words, and finally kowtowed three times on Li Guoyong's grave.

Then Gao Jie followed the Void Master back to the Li family compound, while Liu Zongmin stayed in the blacksmith shop. Li Guoyong died, and the blacksmith shop was naturally inherited by Liu Zongmin, originally Gao Jie was worried that he would lose his master who had been with him for many years, and he was in a bad mood, and wanted him to go back to the Li family together, but Liu Zongmin was determined and said that he was completely fine, so he didn't have to worry.

Back in the Li family's compound, Master Pure Space called Gao Jie to the hall, pondered for a long time, and then slowly asked, "Xiaojie, what do you think of that Liu Zongmin?"

Gao Jie hesitated for a moment and replied: "He was born poor, his parents died when he was a child, he is a poor man!"

The Void Master glared at him and said, "Don't pretend to be stupid, you know what I'm asking!"

Gao Jie saw that his tricks were seen through by the master, so he touched his earlobe in embarrassment, and said with a smile: "Master is master, it seems that he can't hide anything from you, hehe! Master, you have some opinions on his attitude before Li Guoyong's death!"

The Void Master bowed his head slightly and said: "Although this Liu Zongmin is young, he has too much hatred in his heart, it can be seen from his treatment of Li Guoyong that he is a cold-blooded and ruthless person, and he may go to the evil path when he grows up, you must not get too close to him in the future!"

Gao Jie secretly admired his master's vision in his heart, he knew that Liu Zongmin hated powerful and powerful people such as the rich in the government because of the misfortune of his family when he was a teenager, and after following Li Zicheng's uprising, he was addicted to killing, and when he conquered the city, he created many bloody massacres, and was described as a murderous demon king by later generations. Now Liu Zongmin is still young, and his hatred of the rich is only a slight hint, Gao Jie feels that he has a mental illness and needs psychological counseling from a psychiatrist in later generations, maybe he can change this controversial figure in history.

Of course, there were no psychiatrists in the Ming Dynasty, although Gao Jie himself had good medical skills, but he didn't know how to treat mental illness at all, he was Liu Zongmin's friend, and wanted to help him get on the right path, but he didn't know how to do it.

Gao Jie pondered for a moment, and said to the Void Master: "Master's words, I will naturally keep it in my heart, his psychology is a little distorted, I will try to unravel him more first, if one day I find that he is really hopeless, he will naturally stay away from him, Master, please rest assured!"

The Clearance Master has always thought that although Gao Jie often talks nonsense and is mischievous, but in key matters, he is experienced in dealing with the world, and he does not look like a fifteen-year-old child at all, which makes her very relieved, so after listening to Gao Jie's answer, she didn't dwell too much on this matter, and then asked with a smile: "Xiaojie, what did you gain from fighting with Liang Zilong today?"

Gao Jie immediately became excited, rolled up his sleeves and said with a smile: "I studied with Brother Chen before, although I also thought that I had made great progress, but I was always worried that they would release water and deliberately let me, so I was not very confident in my martial arts. In today's battle, I can compete with Blue Eagle Liang Zilong with so many moves without falling behind, it seems that I am already a hero, haha!"

Before he finished laughing, the head was knocked by the void master A few chestnuts, Gao Jie hugged his head and dodged: "Oh, Master, your habit is not good, it is very easy to turn the apprentice into a big fool, you must change it!"

The Void Master closed his hand and said, "You should change your habit of blowing the conch and being blindly arrogant!

Gao Jie seemed to have just remembered, and shouted: "Oh! Look at my brain, why do I have such a bad memory, and I am in a hurry, forgetting that I still have a flower finger that can be used against the enemy!"

The Void Master glanced at him with too much contempt, and snorted: "Is there anyone in this world who has a better memory than you?!You just pretend! Fight with Liang Zilong, you can calmly deal with the long-range attack with your inaction, but when he is forced to get close, you only care about dodging and fleeing, so you will be embarrassed! In fact, when he is close, when you dodge by him with the Phantom Lotus Transformation, as long as you use your fingers, Liang Zilong will definitely advance and retreat, although he may not be able to win the battle, but it should not be difficult to make a draw! As a teacher, I don't know your careful thoughts, and I always feel that I have a twist of my fingers, and some of my daughter's posture is just a matter of abandoning it! You know, the battle of life and death, let alone asking you to be a daughter, even if you are asked to pretend to be a pig and a dog, as long as you can save your life and win, why care!"

Gao Jie smiled embarrassedly: "I'm such a big handsome guy, it's a bit embarrassing to use such a girl's move!"

The Void Master was too eager to fight, Gao Jie hurriedly grabbed her hand, refusing to let go.

Jingkong glared at him angrily and said solemnly: "Master is definitely not playing with you, this is a matter of life and death, you must correct your mentality!

When Gao Jie heard this, he was secretly ashamed, knowing that what the master said was right, and immediately bowed his head and said: "The apprentice knows that he is wrong, and he must change his mistake in the future, and he will definitely use his fingers to face the enemy with a flower in a dignified and generous manner, and he will never hesitate, even if he can't knock the enemy down, he will definitely be fascinated!"

Hearing Gao Jie's first half, the clear space was still when he said something unprecedented, but who knew that when he got to the back, it changed again, making her cry and laugh, and she couldn't help but shake her head and sigh.

At this moment, there was a burst of laughter outside, Chen Dake and Yao Shimen walked in together, Chen Dake said to Gao Jie playfully: "Xiaojie, what peerless martial arts have you practiced to fascinate the enemy?!"

Gao Jie pouted at Chen Dake and said dissatisfiedly: "Brother Chen, I'm still entangled here, don't make fun of me?!"

Yao Shimen smiled rarely: "Actually, what Master Pure Sky said is right, there are no unsightly martial arts in the world, only kung fu that is not easy to use!"

Chen Dake nodded, and then said to the Void Master Tai Zhengyan: "The two of us just came back from outside, and I saw Yu Hongzhi at the door and stopped a person from entering.
