Chapter 70 The Wife Disguised as a Woman

"You...you..."

Because he was too shocked, the owner of the cloth shop stuttered. He pointed at Gu Xingzhai and Lin Xiaodong, his fingers trembling uncontrollably: "As expected, as expected! If Master Gu had eyes under Jiuquan, he would be pissed off by you, an unfilial son!"

"My father is a bright and upright person, unlike some people with filthy thoughts," Gu Xingzhai said coldly, "If the old man knew about it, he would only agree with my decision today."

The man's left hand was intertwined with Lin Xiaodong's ten fingers, his eyes swept over the forks, wooden sticks and shovels held by everyone, and he made an inviting gesture towards them with his right hand: "It seems that you all came prepared, Then let's try it out."

"Let's see if you can get what you want tonight!"

The voice fell, but the scene fell into a strange silence.

The townspeople all know that Gu Xingzhai is a trainer, and he is also a very good trainer. At first, he downplayed the legendary story of embedding the teacup on the wooden table of the teahouse, and it is still talked about by the people of Qingxie Town to this day.

Therefore, although the people present were all envious of Gujia's foundation, but no one wanted to be that early bird, which eventually resulted in a stalemate in which they shouted slogans loudly, but did not dare to act rashly.

When the cloth shop owner saw that this was impossible, as the leader of the team, he had to bite the bullet.

As the saying goes, wine is a strong coward. He thought to himself that with so many people on their side, Gu Xingzhai would be a little more scruples even if he did something, so he shouted, picked up the shovel and swung it towards Gu Xingzhai. But he had too many eyes. Thinking of the persimmons being soft and squeezing, he changed his way and smashed it on Lin Xiaodong's head. This was a coincidence, and it was a precise stab at Gu Xingzhai's reverse scale.

The man no longer restrained his strength, grabbed the end of the shovel, lifted his leg and kicked the cloth shop owner's heart, kicking him so much that blood spurted out on the spot, rolled his eyes and fell to the ground with a thud. It's more air out and less air in.

Everyone stared at the cloth shop owner who was lying unconscious on the ground in stunned silence.

"Don't, don't be afraid of him, there are so many of us!" After a while, a black and strong man trembled, "Let's go together! I don't believe that I can't beat him!"

"No... that's right!"

A few brave ones took a step forward, picked up the guy and were about to rush up, Gu Xingzhai took a deep breath and pulled Lin Xiaodong behind him, but after a few breaths, there were more "corpses" lying on the ground with bloodied heads. several.

In the sight of everyone's panic, a man in a black long gown put one hand behind his back, lowered his eyes and asked them:

"Who else wants to come? Let's go together!"

"Murder-!!!"

A scream pierced the night sky, and the mob was so frightened that they threw down their farm tools and torches and fled.

Lin Xiaodong watched coldly as the flames spread along the grass under the steps, all the way up.

He didn't stop it, but finally glanced back at the Gu family mansion standing in the blazing fire.

"Let's go."

The man's big hand rested on his shoulder, and the heavy weight seemed to be comforting, but also like some kind of silent promise.

"Where to?" Lin Xiaodong asked him.

"Go to the outskirts of the capital," Gu Xingzhai said, "I will take you to see Master."

*

"waste!"

Manager Xie threw the teacup on the ground and scolded: "They're all idiots! Untouchables! What's wrong, you have to fight the grass and startle the snakes, now it's alright, everyone is running away!"

He was trembling with anger. He scolded Mr. Huang who was not doing well, and then scolded the townspeople in Qingxie Town who had more than enough success. Finally, he simply ordered the mayor to raise the tax in Qingxie Town next year by 30%. They "teach a little longer."

And Lin Xiaodong and Gu Xingzhai, who were being talked about by him, had long since left.

They bought a horse-drawn carriage, took turns to drive the carriage, and drove all the way to the suburbs of Beijing. In order to hide people's eyes and ears, Lin Xiaodong also bought a bamboo hat to wear on his head.

"If your master is also a demon slayer," he asked while sitting in the car, "would he be like that gray-robed Taoist priest who yelled at me and killed me as soon as they met?"

"Definitely not," Gu Xingzhai said firmly, "Master, although his old man is not young, he is very open-minded, and in many respects, even young people can't compare."

Lin Xiaodong glanced at him, and suddenly hooked his lips.

Gu Xingzhai wondered, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing," Lin Xiaodong sighed and pointed, "I just don't understand, since your master is so open-minded, how did you teach such an old-fashioned and serious apprentice?"

Gu Xingzhai: "..."

He pointed to himself in disbelief: "Are you talking about me?"

"Otherwise?" Lin Xiaodong said with a smile, "Or are you just serious on the surface? That's right, I remember when you first came home, you looked like a righteous and upright gentleman, 'I have a clear conscience in doing things'... tsk Tsk tsk, I was almost fooled by you."

"Lin Xiaodong!"

Seeing the annoyance hidden under the man's tense expression, Lin Xiaodong couldn't help but burst into laughter.

He held the martial arts book he just bought from the road in his hand, and he read it with relish in the carriage. When he was tired, he and Gu Xingzhai drove the car. There were people chatting with him along the way. Compared with the original stay in the deep house compound, it is not a lot of fun.

"We can be considered as people in Jianghu now," he said with a deep expression. "Do you want to have a nickname or something? Like 'Yizhangqing', 'Timely Rain' or something?"

Gu Xingzhai sighed: "What do you think of?"

"Well," this question really stumped Lin Xiaodong, "let me think about it first."

As a result, after an hour, he put the book on his face, fell into the carriage and fell asleep.

Any nicknames and rivers and lakes were all left to Duke Zhou to solve.

Gu Xingzhai knew it would be like this.

The man glanced back, only to feel that it was only a small space of a few feet square, as if it contained the entire world in his life. The corners of his lips were slightly raised, he looked at the sky, parked the carriage on the side of the road and tied it up, ready to go to the woods ahead to shoot two birds to open meat.

He picked up two pebbles from the ground and slammed into the bird parked in the treetops.

Hearing a muffled sound, the bird fell in response, but Gu Xingzhai frowned fiercely--

For it was not his stone that killed the bird, but a white-feathered arrow from the east.

"Brother?"

A young boy in a black jacket holding a longbow, standing in the woods not far away, looked at him in surprise. Gu Xingzhai was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously said, "Liu Liu?"

"Senior brother, it's really you!"

Xiao Liu screamed in excitement and ran towards him quickly. But before Gu Xingzhai could ask why he was here, Xiao Liu suddenly knelt down in front of him and cried bitterly: "Senior brother, Master he... Master he is gone!"

"Master is gone?" Gu Xingzhai's pupils shrank, and he said sternly, "What's going on, make it clear!"

"That's right, not long after you left, the eunuch sent someone over to invite Master again," Xiao Liu was frightened by his expression, he couldn't stop crying for a while, and stammered out the ins and outs, "But If you say please, it's actually a threat!" He gritted his teeth, his eyes were red with hatred, "Master dragged his seriously ill body to the forbidden area for us, and as a result, he never came out again..."

Gu Xingzhai slowly closed his eyes.

In his ears, Xiao Liu's choked voice seemed to be separated by a membrane, and it was humming that could not be heard clearly. The hatred that was suppressed in the bottom of my heart and slowly faded away with the passage of time is now making a comeback again. The man's clenched fists slowly seeped bright red, and his eyes were full of bloodshots of hatred. Master and those seniors who died in vain took revenge.

"Who's there?"

Xiao Liu suddenly raised his longbow, stared vigilantly at the entrance of the woods and said loudly. Gu Xingzhai came back to his senses and quickly grabbed his wrist: "Stop!"

But the arrow had already been shot out. Lin Xiaodong, who had just woken up to find someone, groaned, covered his arms and took a half step back, his face almost contorted in pain.

"Xiaodong!" Gu Xingzhai rushed to his side, "Are you alright?"

"...It's alright, the flesh is wounded." Lin Xiaodong pursed his lips tightly and slowly lowered his hand.

Fortunately, just now Xiao Liu only sensed the aura of the bewitching and did not aim at his heart. The wound was not deep, it just rubbed his left arm, not even the bones were hurt, just a little blood, and it would be good to bandage it.

But Gu Xingzhai's expression was still remorseful. He glanced at the blood that had splattered on the tree trunk next to him, brought bandages and alcohol from the car, and carefully wrapped it up for Lin Xiaodong. He didn't say a word the whole time.

Xiao Liu, who was standing next to him, looked at him and looked at Lin Xiaodong. Although he didn't understand why the senior brother was mixed with a demon, he also knew that he was too reckless, so he took the initiative to apologize: "I'm sorry, senior brother, I didn't see it clearly just now."

"It's not something you didn't see clearly!" Gu Xingzhai scolded his anger, "and it's not me who you want to apologize to, it's Xiaodong!"

Xiao Liu's eyes widened: "Why should I apologize to a demon? Senior brother, are you serious?"

"I am," Gu Xingzhai stood up and said coldly, "I apologize. Otherwise, you don't need to call out this senior brother."

Xiao Liu looked at him in disbelief, and after a long while, he reluctantly said "I'm sorry" to Lin Xiaodong.

"It's okay, the three views are different, you don't have to force him." Lin Xiaodong smiled and asked Gu Xingzhai, "This is your junior brother?"

"Well, ranked sixth, I'm the senior brother. But since the master took the fourth child, his health has been weakened, so I brought up all of them, so they are half masters." Gu Xingzhai was still a little dissatisfied with him. attitude, so he didn't give Xiao Liu any good looks.

On the contrary, Lin Xiaodong brought a can of fruit candy from the carriage with a smile, grabbed a handful, and shoved it into Xiao Liu's hand.

"You're welcome, take the greeting gift from your father to you."

Xiao Liu looked at him blankly, dumbfounded.

"...What are you talking about???"
