Chapter 17 Gu Changqing

Inside an inn in Anyang Prefecture.

A slender man with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and a young man in golden clothes was standing in front of Shi Wunian, bowed to him and said, "Gu Changqing of the Eagle Hall has seen the Lord of Great Wishes! He has seen two real people."

"You don't need to be too polite." Shi Wunian waved his hand, motioning for the other party to sit down: "You have come all the way, you have worked hard."

"Thank you, May Lord, for your concern. This disciple came here and brought twelve masters from the Eagle Hall, and they all listened to May Lord's instructions."

"I would rather listen to your thoughts on the matter of looking for a soldier's sword... You already know everything, right?"

"Yes, on the way here, the disciple has checked all the information."

"What do you think?"

"There is no solution to this problem." The young man replied.

"En?" Shi Wunian raised his eyebrows.

But Gu Changqing was completely fearless, and just said: "Being disturbed by Xiao Biehan, we have already missed the best time to hunt down that young man. The sky is big and the earth is huge, the sea of ​​people is vast, and the person who has not been caught in a few months will not be caught again." Given a few years, decades, I'm afraid it will be very difficult to catch again... We haven't even seen that person."

"Isn't there a name?"

"Wen Xinguo's name is Tang Jie, and there are eight thousand if not ten thousand. Besides, you can change the name if you want. If you check the name, I'm afraid you won't be able to find anything."

"What about the portrait?" Xu Ruogu asked.

"It's even more useless." Gu Changqing replied unceremoniously: "The oral description can only be effective when the other party has obvious characteristics, such as hemorrhoids on the face, baldness, or natural abnormalities, etc. If it is an ordinary person, just rely on The portrait cannot be identified at all."

Everyone was dumbfounded. The portrait itself is somewhat different from the real person. Coupled with the oral drawing, although those who have seen Tang Jie will feel more like it, those who have not seen it may not be able to recognize it.

He Changqing said again: "Furthermore, the other party is just a teenager, and it is time to grow up. When people grow up, their physical appearance will always change. After years of not seeing each other, even people who are familiar with him may not be able to recognize them. It's even more difficult for an old man, not to mention the countless portraits made on a piece of paper, and the other party's intention to hide it."

"Could it be that we just let the other party have fun?" He Chong was in a hurry.

"Of course not. I'm just saying that if you take the initiative to search for him, there may be no results, but it doesn't mean you can't find him." Gu Changqing replied lightly.

"What do you think? Just say it." Shi Wunian said.

Gu Changqing replied: "If you want to catch this kid, you must first get to know him. When I came here, I checked everything about Xu Muyang, and found that Xu Muyang had never known a young Tang Jie before. It should be possible to confirm this.”

"Yes." Xu Ruogu replied.

"That is to say, this young man should have been known by Xu Muyang after he fled to Wenxin Kingdom. He Zhenren, you chased and killed Xu Muyang all the way to Wenxin Kingdom, during which time you gave Xu Muyang too much free time ?”

"Absolutely not." He Chong replied: "I chased and killed all the way, and the battle was intermittent. When I was almost inseparable from Xu Muyang, the longest separation time was no more than a few hours."

"That is to say, he was a young man who met after the Battle of Cuiwei Mountain. The house was bought one month after the Battle of Cuiwei Mountain. Tang Jie had already appeared at that time, so when he met Tang Jie, it should be It was during this month. Before I came, I had ordered the local dark hall disciples to check for signs of Xu Muyang's presence in the vicinity, and found that just one month after the battle of Cuiwei Mountain and a few days before Tang Jie bought the house, Cuiwei In the area of ​​Xiaohe Village at the foot of the mountain, there was once a horse bandit massacring the village, and almost all the villagers in Xiaohe Village were slaughtered."

"Do you think Xu Muyang did it?"

"I have been to Xiaohe Village. There are people who erected graves for Xiaohe Village, but unfortunately they didn't leave their names. I had someone dig out the graves, and after examining the corpses, it was confirmed that they were wounded by swords. Several of them died from the attacks of divine sense. .”

"Sure enough!" He Chong snorted, "Before I was defeated and left that day, I launched the wrath of the gods to bombard the eight-door lock array with all my strength. hold the line,

I must have been seriously injured, so he must have healed his wounds on the spot, and he didn't come out until a month later, but happened to encounter the incident of the horse bandit massacring the village in Xiaohe Village, and he shot and killed the bandit. Be chivalrous! "

His tone was full of disdain.

"That's right." Gu Changqing said, "Before I came here, I sent people to check other nearby villages. Some people had contacts with Xiaohe Village. It was confirmed that there was indeed a 12-year-old boy named Tang there. I don't know much, I don't know enough details, and the whole village was burned again. Now I can't find any more specific information, but I can be sure that Tang Jie is the last living villager in Xiaohe Village. After Xu Muyang killed all the horse thieves Take him away."

"What's the use of knowing this?" He Chong asked dissatisfied.

"It's useful!" Gu Changqing replied: "Only by knowing who the target is, can you understand him. This boy... is not easy."

"Why do you say that?"

"Just because we couldn't find him with all our hands, just because Xu Muyang dared to hand things over to a young man for safekeeping, just because he let Xu Muyang take him away!" Gu Changqing replied, and he turned to Xu Ruogu: "Xu Muyang Daoist, you are Xu Muyang's big brother, in your opinion, Xu Muyang is a person who will give a treasure to someone you don't trust?"

Xu Ruogu shook his head.

"Then after killing all the horse thieves, take a boy who was saved by me and leave, and even live with him for half a year?"

Xu Ruogu still shook his head.

Immortal cultivators travel all their lives, and when they feel the urge, they often do things for the heavens, but if they save people and take them away, they have to follow a teacher behind them.

Letting Xu Muyang take him away, and even handing him over to him before he died, it can be seen that this Tang Jie does have something that Xu Muyang attaches great importance to.

Shi Wunian sighed: "No wonder we couldn't find this kid, after all we were deceived by his age."

If it is an ordinary young man who is in distress, he will inevitably show his feet under the panic, and there is still a chance to find someone in Tianshen Palace. Now that the other party is prepared, and it is not his own land, it will be really difficult.

Gu Changqing laughed and said: "Actually, sometimes being smart is a good thing. When people are smart, they will have ambitions, and if they have ambitions, they will have goals. Since you can't find the other party, you might as well change your mind."

"you mean……"

"He has a military guide." Gu Changqing replied: "He must know the function of a military guide. May the Lord, what do you think a kid like this holds a key that can open a treasure in his hand, what would he do?"

Shi Wunian's eyes lit up: "There's no need to ask, of course I'm looking for an opportunity to open the treasure."

"That's right!" He Chong clapped his hands: "As long as we send someone to guard the formation, sooner or later, he will come to the door by himself!"

But as soon as he said this, Shi Wunian and Xu Ruogu looked at him contemptuously at the same time, and secretly scolded him for being ignorant.

The Nine Absolute Immortals Formation is an ancient large formation. Apart from being proficient in the way of the formation, one's own cultivation is also very important to crack it. With Tang Jie's current ability, it is impossible to crack it even with a military guide.

If you really wait in front of the battle, you don't know how many years you will have to wait. Maybe in a hundred years, the boy will be turned into a corpse and can't make it to Tiandu Mountain. By then, the soldier's sword will really be buried in the ground.

Gu Changqing said: "So I'm going to ask Daoist Xu again, do you think it is possible for Xu Muyang to pass the Xu family's cultivation mentality to that kid?"

"Absolutely impossible!" Xu Ruogu replied decisively: "The cultivation mentality of the Xu family is only passed on to the blood, not to outsiders. It is the basis of the family inheritance, and it is impossible for him to break it."

If Xu Muyang is a rebel from the Xu family, Xu Ruogu still dare not be so sure. But Xu Muyang still wanted to protect the Xu family when he was dying, so he would never do such a thing.

"Then does he have other ideas?"

"No." Xu Ruogu replied: "My third younger brother has been obsessed with Dao all his life and doesn't know the cultivation methods of other sects. He Chong should be able to prove this."

He Chong nodded: "I have been fighting with him for two months, and Xu Muyang has exhausted all means, and I have never seen him use any unique skills other than the Xu family, so it should be impossible."

"That is to say, Tang Jie probably doesn't know any cultivation methods now, except..." Shi Wunian wanted to talk about the Cangxiang Sutra, but considering that Xu Ruogu was here, he suppressed it.

It was Gu Changqing who said: "The Tibetan Elephant Sutra is only a basic practice method, and there are no cultivation methods in the Lingtai state, so it should not be counted."

When He Chong heard that he exposed the name of the Tibetan Elephant Sutra, he gave him a hard look. Gu Changqing smiled and said, "Until now, no one can guess what's going on? It's just that I don't know the specific value and location of the treasure. I don’t know if it’s worth the effort. The Zangxiang Sutra is a technique created by that great man. Its name is not obvious. Even if you spread it all over the world, no one knows what it is, so don’t worry about it. In fact, It’s okay to talk about it, if you can’t hide some things, then don’t hide them at all. Let’s say that it’s a treasure left by an earth immortal in the Immortal Realm. Confession."

Shi Wunian nodded again and again: "Not bad."

Since the leak of information cannot be concealed, let it be devalued.

Although the Immortal Realm is strong, the major sects still exist. A relic of a Immortal in the Immortal Realm is worth Shi Wunian's trip, but not worth the six major sects' desperate efforts.

"But if we keep pursuing, they may not believe it." Xu Ruogu hesitated.

"So next, I will petition the Lord to go back." Gu Changqing said: "May the Lord stay here, it will only elevate the situation and let the Moon Sect care. The previous arrival can be interpreted as the face of Tianshen Palace. If you want to stay Next, it means that the matter is of great importance.”

"What about the Bingjian?" He Chong frowned worriedly.

"Although the military certificate is important, it is only a mortal kid who took him. The real difficulty in this matter is to find people, not to grab things. A target that can be easily dealt with by a strong man does not need to stay with the two real people." it's here."

"It makes sense." Shi Wunian nodded: "In this case, we will go back to Tianshen Palace tomorrow, Falcon, you stay and continue to search. But what if you say that kid doesn't know how to practice?"

Gu Changqing replied: "If you want to open the Nine Absolute Immortal Execution Formation, you must cultivate immortals. Since Tang Jie has no possibility of obtaining the Xu Family Kungfu, and the Cangxiang Sutra is not enough to support his formal cultivation, then the next step..."

Shi Wunian understood: "Xiyue Academy! He will definitely find a way to enter Xiyue Academy, no wonder he will go north!"

"That's right, as long as we send people to keep an eye on the academy, we will be able to catch this kid sooner or later, which is much better than guarding in the mountains." He Chong said excitedly.

"But Xiyue Academy is not easy to enter." Xu Ruogu said.

"Yes." Gu Changqing also sighed: "Fortunately, this kid doesn't look stupid at the moment. I just hope that he can be smarter now, so smart that he can break through the barriers before cultivating immortals and enter the academy."

"Xiyue College only accepts teenagers before the age of sixteen. This year's opportunity has passed, and he still has three years to work hard." Xu Ruogu said.

"Three years, three more years." Shi Wunian and He Chong said helplessly.

Gu Changqing replied lightly: "For the ten thousand year foundation of Tianshen Palace, what's the point of waiting for a hundred years! Patience is the magic weapon of our generation's achievements. Without patience, nothing can be accomplished. Besides, waiting in Xiyue Academy is better than waiting in front of the battle. It is much better to wait. Of course, disciples will try their best to search for the whereabouts of this person, but the clues are limited, and there is little hope."

"That's the only way to go." Shi Wunian nodded and said, "Over the Jiujue Formation, the Tianshen Palace will send people to guard it all the year round. Make sure not to give this kid a chance. As for other small sects, he has to guard against it."

"Yes!" Gu Changqing replied: "However, I think he is most likely to choose Xiyue College. If people with Xuanbingjian do not work hard to walk on the right path, it will be a waste of resources. In order to ensure the convenience of searching, the disciple hopes to Arrange a few of your subordinates to enter the Moonwashing Academy."

"This..." Shi Wunian frowned: "Xiyue College attaches great importance to innocence, and my disciples from Tianshen Palace here may not pass their inspection."

"No need." Gu Changqing replied: "In the name of Tianshen Palace, directly send people into the academy."

"How could they agree to this?"

"I will agree. What the Xiyue Sect is only worried about is that the secrets will flow out. What we want are people, not the secrets of the Xiyue Sect. We don't need the Purple Jade Mind Method, and there is no need to learn the Shenxiao Sword Manual. It doesn't matter if we choose that." It is enough to study and accept surveillance. If the Xiyue Sect is willing, they can also send their disciples to study at our Tianshen Palace Academy. They must treat each other as guests. It can be done."

He Chong snorted secretly.

Gu Changqing's words sound nice, and most of them are planning for himself. It seems that he wants to use the resources of Tianshen Palace to train capable men for himself.

It is never easy to learn high-level exercises. Not only must you be talented, but you must also have merit and loyalty. For most disciples, let alone those god-level exercises, even ordinary exercises are enough. Make them stronger.

Moreover, these people are learning the moon-washing sect's exercises, even if they are not powerful exercises, they will have their unique value when they return to Tianshen Palace in the future. Most likely. These people were all nominated by Gu Changqing, and I am very grateful to him. Gu Changqing has risen all the way, and his future status goes without saying. It really is well-intentioned.

However, Gu Changqing's plans are intertwined, but there is no reason for Tianshen Palace not to agree.

But all of this is based on the fact that Gu Changqing got back the soldier's sword. If he can't get it back... He Chong sneered in his heart, then you will have to spit out everything you ate!

He and Gu Changqing had no old grievances, but he lost Xu Muyang and his status in the Tianshen Palace declined, so it is natural for the outstanding performers to be psychologically unbalanced, wishing for the other party to fail.

"It makes sense!" Shi Wunian stood up, "I will report this matter to the Palace Master when I go back. From now on, you will be responsible for everything here!"

"Yes, the disciple will never return to the palace if he doesn't get the military mirror back!" Gu Changqing bowed down with joy.
