Chapter 21: Fengming Mountain Hunting
In the darkness of the night, a figure limped back to the inn.
Gu Qingzhou came to the window of a room, secretly opened a gap and wanted to look inside, only to see that Xia Wanyan in the room was still asleep, and her two little feet were exposed outside the quilt.
"Roast chicken, it's delicious!"
Suddenly, Xia Wanyan muttered in her mouth, and it looked like she was talking in a dream. She smiled sweetly on her face, and the two small dimples were very beautiful, and she didn't know what kind of sweet dream she had.
Gu Qingzhou stood outside and took in all of this, and couldn't help but smile, and suddenly felt that the wounds on his body didn't seem to be as painful as just now.
Relieved, Gu Qingzhou returned to his room lightly.
He slowly took off the clothes on his body, and his body was covered with wounds, some of which were still leaving blood.
Gu Qingzhou just rinsed it with water, wrapped it in a cloth and lay down directly on the bed.
He had just stopped with the master of the Perception Realm, and he had already exhausted all his spiritual power and physical strength, and at this moment, he was extremely prostration, so he fell asleep directly.
After Gu Qingzhou fell asleep, the jade pendant on his neck once again emitted a gentle light, and the light slowly flowed, covering his whole body.
The amazing thing is that the wounds on his body actually began to heal slowly under this scene.
Following.
The sun draws the horizon and emits a dazzling light, illuminating the earth and bringing light to the world.
In the wild city, people also got up one after another to start a busy day.
Inside the inn.
"Hey, Gu Qingzhou, the sun is shining on your buttocks, don't get up quickly!"
Xia Wanyan's voice came from outside the door.
"Shhh
Gu Qingzhou woke up from his sleep and immediately felt a sharp pain coming from his body.
Gu Qingzhou looked down, but was surprised to find that most of the injuries on his body last night had healed, and he couldn't help but be stunned directly.
"What's going on?"
Gu Qingzhou was surprised in his heart, but he couldn't figure out why.
"Hey, are you awake? Xia Wanyan's voice came from outside the door again.
Gu Qingzhou hurriedly grabbed his clothes and put them on his body, he didn't want Xia Wanyan to know that he had secretly been to the City Lord's Mansion yesterday.
"Gu Qingzhou, if you don't speak, then I'll come in!" Outside the door, Xia Wanyan seemed to be a little angry, and said directly.
Who knows, the next moment he really pushed open the door and walked in.
"Ahh
Suddenly, a shrill cry echoed through the room.
"Hey, why don't you get dressed!" Xia Wanyan's face was flushed, and she quickly turned around.
At this moment, Gu Qingzhou's clothes were just half worn out, and the moment Xia Wanyan came in, he just covered the wound.
"Who knows...... Are you really ...... Come in!"
Gu Qingzhou's face was also full of embarrassment, and he stammered a little when he spoke.
"Bah, rascal!" Xia Wanyan scolded with her back on her back.
"Hey, you're unreasonable, you came to my room by yourself, and you scolded me for being a hooligan, if you want to say that a hooligan, you should be right, female hooligan!" Gu Qingzhou scolded back while getting dressed.
"You're a scoundrel!"
Xia Wan was so angry that she forgot that Gu Qingzhou was still dressing, and turned around and just wanted to continue scolding him, but she happened to see Gu Qingzhou's abdomen.
The eight-pack abs are well-defined and well-proportioned, giving a masculine beauty.
Xia Wanyan couldn't help but be a little stunned, her eyes lit up, and she seemed to swallow her saliva secretly.
"That...... Still...... It's pretty good!"
Xia Wanyan smiled in her mouth and whispered.
“......”
Gu Qingzhou hurriedly turned around, and after putting on his clothes, he turned back.
"Hmph, don't even give a look, stingy ghost!"
Xia Wanyan puffed out her mouth and said a little angrily.
"Hey, you're a dignified Taoist saintess, can you pay attention?"
Gu Qingzhou glanced at Xia Wanyan, a little helpless.
Xia Wanyan sat directly at the table in the center of the room, looked at Gu Qingzhou, who was already dressed, with bright eyes, and said indifferently: "What's wrong with the saint, the saint doesn't allow me to look at my abdominal muscles?
As he spoke, the little eyes still aimed at his abdomen from time to time.
Gu Qingzhou was speechless for a while after hearing this.
Gu Qingzhou also sat down at the table, poured two cups of tea casually, put one in front of Xia Wanyan, picked up one and drank two sips, and then asked, "Come to me early in the morning, what happened?"
Xia Wanyan didn't seem to hear it, she looked at Gu Qingzhou intently, her brows furrowed slightly.
"You look a little different today. ”
Gu Qingzhou was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "What's the matter?"
"you!"
Xia Wanyan directly gave him a roll of his eyes, and asked, "Have you broken through to the middle stage of the Shouyuan Realm?"
"Huh?"
Gu Qingzhou was stunned again, hurriedly checked his body, and laughed heartily after a long time.
"It seems that last night's life and death stop allowed me to completely break through the limits of my body, so I naturally reached the middle stage of the Shouyuan Realm. Gu Qingzhou guessed in his heart.
Breaking through to the middle stage of the Shouyuan Realm, the spiritual power contained in his body became stronger than before, Gu Qingzhou clenched his fists, and suddenly felt full of power.
"I really envy you, you see that my dignified Taoist saintess has not even broken through the Shouyuan Realm. Xia Wanyan pouted and said enviously.
Gu Qingzhou smiled, touched Xia Wanyan's little head, and comforted: "The biggest difference between the Shouyuan Realm and the Na Ling Realm is that the Yuan God has been successfully condensed, so you have to come on!"
"Oh!"
Xia Wanyan continued to pout.
"Oops, I almost forgot!"
Xia Wanyan suddenly slapped the table, which really startled Gu Qingzhou.
"Early this morning, the City Lord's Mansion issued an edict, saying that the demon beasts have been rampant recently, and they often attack nearby villages, so they will hold a hunting conference, and they will also organize all the young cultivators in the city to participate in the hunting in Fengming Mountain. Xia Wanyan said slowly.
"Fengming Mountain hunting?"
Gu Qingzhou frowned, feeling that things didn't seem to be so simple.
He had just attacked the City Lord's Mansion at night last night, and he also injured Su Minshan. That Su Shi and Su Minshan are both revenge offenders, and they should not stop easily, and he has discovered the secret of Su She's evil cultivation, isn't he afraid that he will poke him out at this time.
At this time, not only did he not send someone to trouble him, but he also had to hold a hunt in Fengming Mountain.
"Could it be that in their eyes, this hunting meeting is more important than the secret of his evil cultivator?"
Gu Qingzhou really couldn't figure it out.
"Hey, what are you thinking?" Xia Wanyan couldn't help but ask when she saw that Gu Qingzhou hadn't replied for a long time.
"It's nothing, I'm just wondering why the City Lord's Mansion suddenly held a Fengming Mountain Hunt at this time, if it is according to the usual practice, the Demon Beast Hunt should be once every three years. From the point of view of time, it should be half a year away, how can it be so advanced this time?"
Gu Qingzhou replied with a frown.
Xia Wanyan also shook her head after hearing this, she didn't know much about the wilderness, so it was even more difficult to speak.
"Let's go!"
After Gu Qingzhou finished speaking, he patted his sleeves and walked directly out of the room.
"Where are you going?" Xia Wan said puzzled, looking at Gu Qingzhou's back.
"Take a look at the list sent by the City Lord's Mansion!"
When the two of them came to the street, they saw that the lights were already lit up all around, as if they were ready to celebrate the festival.
The shops on both sides of the street are also covered with red lanterns, which are made of dark powder, and at night they emit fluorescence and do not need to be lit, so they are not afraid to summon things in the dark.
Gu Qingzhou looked at those lanterns, and saw that there were some blessings for hunting in Fengming Mountain written on them with a brush.
"Mom, are we going to celebrate the holidays? Why are we hanging lanterns?"
Suddenly, the voice of a child came from the side, the child was holding a sugar gourd in his hand, and looked innocently at the woman who was hanging the lantern.
After the woman hung up the lantern in her hand, she bent down and looked at the child with a doting expression.
"Our great city lord has just issued an edict to hold a hunting meeting in Fengming Mountain, so this is a great joy for our wilderness. The woman said kindly.
"What is the Fengming Mountain Hunting Conference, is it fun?" the child continued.
The woman who hung the lantern was not angry, and replied very patiently: "Of course it's fun, when we grow up, we can also go to the hunting meeting, and if we get the ranking, we can also get the reward of the city lord!"
"Then I'm going to grow up quickly!" the kid jumped up and down happily.
"Then you can eat more, so that you can grow tall and strong!" the woman touched the child's head with a doting face.
Gu Qingzhou was a little distracted watching from the side, and his eyes were a little moist, he had dreamed of such a picture more than once in his dreams.
He looked at the child with envy on his face, and couldn't help but think of how much he longed for mother's love when he was a child!
Xia Wanyan on the side was also a little distracted, and she reacted the same as Gu Qingzhou.
The two looked at each other, and both saw a deep longing in each other's eyes.
"It seems that we really have the same disease!" Gu Qingzhou smiled bitterly, patted Xia Wanyan's shoulder, and said helplessly.
Come to the gates of the city.
I saw that there was a large circle of people around the bulletin board at the entrance, and those people all looked at the newly issued edict of the City Lord's Mansion with excitement on their faces, and secretly rubbed their fists, wanting to take advantage of this Fengming Mountain Hunting Conference to make a splash.
At the outermost part of the people, the two soldiers who usually guard the city gate also stood there, looking at the bulletin board with an excited face, thinking that they would also shine in this hunting meeting.
As soon as Gu Qingzhou and Xia Wanyan approached, they heard the sound of their heated discussion from the crowd.
"Our city lord is really conscientious, I just heard that there are demon beasts near Fengming Mountain, and for the sake of the nearby villagers, I ordered to go there to hunt. ”
"Yes, the city lord is so wise, it is really a blessing for me to be wild!"
"Eh, you have only seen the surface, this Fengming Mountain Hunting Conference, firstly, it can clean up the demon beasts to protect the safety of the nearby villages, and secondly, it can also give young cultivators a chance to exercise. It really protects the people and discovers talents!"
"It's really worthy of the lord of the castle. ”
