Chapter 124 Gu Changqing (Second Guaranteed Update)

Gu Changqing lay on the tree trunk, watching the situation in the temple intently, waiting for an opportunity, and then he saw An Guoxie suddenly look to the right, and saw the unconscious little monk slashing out a sword light that was not clear but seemed to be shining in his heart. He remembered the declining family and the strength that was despised, and the resentment was hard to eliminate.

Then, he saw An Guoxie being slashed by a knife, his bones softened, and he narrowly slapped back the sword, saw the little monk hit the hidden weapon and picked up the long sword, saw An Guoxie's left palm struggling to swing out, saw the hidden weapon split into seven in the air, most of which bypassed An Guoxie's defense, ignored his dodge, and hit him.

Then, he saw An Guoxie's body swell, as if a sandstorm was about to ravage, saw the little monk holding the sword in his left hand, stabbing out a sword light that was resolute, firm, and murderous, and saw An Guoxie's eyebrows were pierced with a sword, and he fell to the ground powerlessly, and there was no life.

Wait, An Guoxie's eyebrows were pierced with a sword, and he fell to the ground powerlessly, and there was no life?

Gu Changqing seemed to be watching a series of flashing scenes before, and he was awakened by the last scene. What happened?

"White-headed Vulture" An Guoxie actually had a sword in his eyebrow?

He died just like that with all nine orifices open? Killed by a monk who looked weak?

Gu Changqing's mouth was half open, and he felt like he was dreaming just now. The movements of An Guoxie and the little monk seemed to be replayed in his mind in slow motion, and it didn't feel real at all.

He subconsciously raised his palm and patted his cheek. The pain made him understand that everything was true. One of the most outstanding disciples of the crying old man, a master with all nine orifices open, and a strong man ranked 36th on the human list, "White-headed Vulture" An Guoxie, really died in front of him, died in the hands of an unknown little monk!

And just a few breaths ago, he was still the absolute winner, torturing the little monk to death and falling into a coma.

Can anyone tell me what happened? He shouted in his heart, but he could be sure of one thing, that is, the little monk was definitely a master, much better than himself!

After Meng Qi destroyed the knife and sword marks on An Guoxie's body, he was about to search for something on him, but suddenly heard some movement in the distance outside. He immediately turned outside and said in a deep voice: "Who?"

Not knowing whether it was a friend or an enemy, he could only warn him.

Gu Changqing suppressed his shock, jumped down from the treetop calmly, and walked towards the temple: "Little Master, you asked for help in the inn before, so I came to see you, intending to confirm your identity, and then invite a few seniors to help. Who knew that you killed An Guoxie by yourself.

When he said the second half of the sentence, he still had a subtle feeling that was not real.

Meng Qi almost didn't remember who the weak scholar-like guy opposite was. For Gu Changqing, this was just something that happened in the evening, and only a few hours had passed, but for Meng Qi, this was a story that happened almost three months ago, and it was just a one-time encounter. If he didn't have a good memory, he would probably blurt out "Brother, who are you?"

He had a lot of experience during this period of time, and he clasped his hands together without any expression: "Amitabha, because of the matter of my master, I was captured by An Guoxie and tortured, so when I saw the young knights, I couldn't help but ask for help. I don't know your name, and I am grateful for your help. "

He deliberately didn't mention the previous battle, because he hadn't thought of an excuse yet.

Gu Changqing waved his hand and said with some shame: "I am Gu Changqing from Gujiabao. I just came to take a look. How can I be called a helping hand?"

"The fact that you have the heart to save people and take actual actions is enough to show that Master Gu is a chivalrous man. "Meng Qi said sincerely, and at the same time, he was moved. Gu Changqing seemed to be a native of the Western Regions. He should be quite familiar with the vast Gobi Desert. He had to ask him for help in his search for his junior brother.

He was not a heartless and ungrateful person, so after escaping the predicament, he thought about finding and rescuing his junior brother. As for the master, although Shaolin did not expect the crying old man to suddenly appear after missing for many years and intercept their own master, since they dared to send the master to the Western Regions to question the "landlord" of the Vajra Temple, they must be sure that he had enough self-protection power. Therefore, he was at most injured by the crying old man - besides, he could not help at all in the fight in the outer scene.

Hearing the evaluation of chivalrous and righteous, Gu Changqing couldn't help showing a trace of joy and complacency on his face: "This is what the righteous people of our generation should do, and I don't deserve the praise of the little master. I don't know what the little master's Dharma name is? To be able to kill An Guoxie, he must be an unknown person in the Great Jin. "

He could tell from Meng Qi's accent that he was a monk from the Jin Dynasty.

"My name is Zhending. I just used my unique secret method to quietly unlock the acupuncture points. I also had a bottle of poison and a poison dart on me, so I took advantage of An Guoxie's healing time to kill him. My strength is much inferior to his. "Meng Qi had already thought of an excuse, saying that he had a unique skill to punch the acupuncture points. Anyway, An Guoxie was dead, and no one knew that he had destroyed his Dantian and broken his arm. No one knew whether the sword and knife were his trophies and used by him.

Gu Changqing recalled the process just now. Except for the slight mistake at the beginning, it seemed quite consistent. Moreover, the name Zhending was indeed unknown, so he smiled and nodded and said: "An Guoxie traveled across the vast sea, cruel and powerful, but he died in the end because of his own carelessness. It's really the law of heaven, karma. "

Facing a guy like me who is open, everyone will be careless... Meng Qi laughed at himself in his heart.

Gu Changqing continued, "But Master Zhending, your sword and saber skills are also amazing. Even if I am watching from afar, I feel like I am in an illusion and feel thrilling. I wonder what sect you are from?"

"I am a disciple of Shaolin." Meng Qi did not hide the fact that he wanted Gu Changqing to introduce a guide to find his junior brother.

Gu Changqing subconsciously said, "So you are a disciple of Shaolin. No wonder, no wonder. The sword and saber skills just now are probably Ananda's sword and Bodhidharma's sword skills, right?"

The Vajra Temple is good at swords, so the sword-using style in the Western Region is strong. Even if Gu Changqing is a sword-wielder, he has heard of Ananda's sword and saber skills, which are among the best sword skills in the world.

As for Bodhidharma's sword skills, it is his own interest.

"I am not talented enough to be praised." Meng Qi answered with a tacit attitude, and then said, "Donor Gu, because of An Guoxie, I was separated from my junior brother. I wonder if you have seen a monk younger than me who is also dressed like this?"

"No." Gu Changqing shook his head. "The dress of monks in the Western Regions is different from that of the Great Jin Dynasty. I have never seen one. What happened to you that separated you?"

Meng Qi pondered for a while, thinking that in the face of An Guoxie, a nine-orifice master, Gu Changqing also had the courage to come to inquire and do a chivalrous act, so he roughly described the matter, but did not mention that he tried to escape. At the end, he said: "I don't know how much Donor Gu knows about the terrain of the vast sea. Can you explain it to me so that I will not be at a loss for where to find people."

"Master Xuanbei fought with the crying old man, this... It's a shocking battle, I wish I could witness it with my own eyes. "Gu Changqing sighed for a few words and then said, "My family has lived in the vast sea for generations, and I know the terrain well. It is extremely complicated and cannot be described in detail at once. If you don't mind, I am willing to lead the way for you."

Meng Qi originally planned to ask him for "geographical knowledge" and introduce a reliable guide, but he actually volunteered. He was a little stunned for a moment: "Master Gu, where are your companions?"

Gu Changqing showed a little contempt on his face: "I always thought they were also chivalrous and brave people who could be loyal to me. Now it seems that they are all timid and afraid of things. Compared with the risky act of looking for the junior brother, it is really not up to the standard. Therefore, I am willing to help the little master."

If you want to find the true wisdom, you must go deep into the vast sea. At that time, the horse bandits will be rampant, and the Luoju will be extremely powerful and dangerous.

Hearing Gu Changqing's evaluation of the three companions, Meng Qi thought that it would be better not to make friends with the disciples of the Snow Mountain Sect. They are timid and afraid of things, and they may betray their whereabouts.

He put his hands together and said sincerely: "Amitabha, I would like to thank Mr. Gu on behalf of my junior brother."

"Master Zhending, when are we going to leave? I can go back and say goodbye." Gu Changqing did what he said.

Meng Qi waved his hand and smiled: "No hurry, wait until dawn, then I will ask Mr. Gu to help buy a few sets of clothes and a few hats."

"That's right, your dress is too conspicuous, it's easy to be targeted by Zeluoju and You Huanduo's men." Gu Changqing said suddenly.

You Huanduo is another disciple of the crying old man who has opened the nine orifices. Nicknamed "Land Yama", he is the leader of the 72 bandits in Helian Mountain. Although they mainly operate near Helian Mountain, the Hanhai Business Road is also an important source of their wealth.

Meng Qi added: "There may be bandits and spies in the oasis. If I go to buy it myself, I may be targeted, so I would like to ask for help from you, Mr. Gu."

"No problem, haha, then the little master will have to change his tone, don't always call me a donor, otherwise others can still see that you are a monk." Gu Changqing said with a smile.

After the discussion, Meng Qi bent down and searched An Guoxie's body, but unfortunately he didn't get much. He came to help his master this time, so he naturally didn't have any secret books or anything like that. Moreover, he didn't use weapons, hidden weapons, or poisons, and he didn't have anything similar. He only found a bottle of healing pills that seemed pretty good, a bag of broken silver, a few gems, and a bunch of brass keys.

"This is the 'Ghost Replenishing Pill' of the Crying Old Man's lineage. Although the healing effect is not as good as the Hundred Herbs Pill, it is not bad." Gu Changqing recognized the bottle of pills, but unfortunately there were only two pills left in it.

He didn't show any greed for these things, and watched Meng Qi put them away, because they were his spoils of war.

Meng Qi thought that he would pay the reward after finding his junior brother in the future, so that Gu Changqing would be more likely to accept it.

"What is this bunch of keys for..." Meng Qi swung the brass keys, making a jingling sound.

Gu Changqing thought for a while and said, "An Guoxie is a famous thief in the vast sea, with a rich fortune, but no one knows where he lives. This is probably the key to his various residences."

"No one knows... How can I find it..." Meng Qi said regretfully. If he got An Guoxie's treasure, he would be able to eat and drink well after leaving Shaolin!

Gu Changqing looked carefully and pondered, "It's not that there are no clues. The shapes of keys in different countries and oases are not the same. We can narrow the scope with the keys."

"Makes sense." Meng Qi praised, and then put the matter aside for the time being. Together with Gu Changqing, they tied An Guoxie's body to a stone and threw it into the small lake to destroy the body.

…………

The next day, Meng Qi put on the white Confucian robe he had "long admired" for a long time, put on a gauze hat, and left this oasis with Gu Changqing.

At noon, a shop assistant frowned, something was wrong. Uncle Anguo entered the temple last night, why hasn't he come out yet? According to the usual practice, he would come over and hang out!
