I became an immortal in the mountains

Chapter 24 Various Misunderstandings
Although Gu Yuanqing had guessed it in his mind and did not think that this matter had much to do with him, he still felt inexplicably relieved when he heard Prince Qing's words.

But he didn't know why the Daqian royal family did this. What was the point of hiding it from the public?

He didn't ask much. As a prisoner here, he had no right to interfere in the royal affairs. It was enough for him to know what he wanted to know.

When Prince Qing saw that Gu Yuanqing didn't ask, he didn't mention it anymore. This matter was not a glorious one and it was not suitable to be discussed.

Moreover, both of the people involved were masters, so was it really as he knew? Perhaps there was something else going on.

After chatting for a while, Gu Yuanqing stood up and said goodbye.

Prince Qing also stood up and said, "I will stay in this mountain for some time. If you are free, you can come and sit with me anytime and chat with me, an old man."

Gu Yuanqing smiled and said, "I am a criminal. Without permission, I cannot even leave the courtyard, so how can I come to bother the prince?"

Prince Qing thought it was just an excuse, so he smiled and said, "Although I am old, I am not senile. A master warrior cannot be guarded by a mere soldier. Perhaps Master Gu and Your Majesty have another agreement?"

Gu Yuanqing did not answer, but bowed and said, "Your Majesty, please stay. I will take my leave."

Then he casually took the sword behind his back, took a few steps back, turned around and was about to leave the room, when he suddenly remembered something and turned back and said, "Oh, there is one thing I almost forgot."

"Mr. Gu, please speak."

"I have a small courtyard on Beiquan Mountain and I am used to it. I think I may have to continue living there in the future, so I don't want others to set foot there. I talked about this with General Chen yesterday, but General Chen said that he is not the one in charge of this place. Today, I saw the prince coming here, so I guess the prince must be the one in charge of Beiquan Mountain. I wonder if the prince can meet this small request just now?"

King Qing said, "This is a small matter. I will make arrangements. If Master Gu is not used to staying in the back mountain, he can move back."

"No thanks, Your Highness. I've lived here for a year, so I'll go to the back mountain for a while to change my mood. Besides, it will be very noisy in Beiquan Mountain in the coming days, so it will be quieter to live in the back. Your Highness, I won't bother you anymore, and I'll take my leave." Gu Yuanqing bowed again, then turned and walked out of the room.

Prince Qing escorted him to the entrance of the lobby and said, "Qin Hu, please see Master Gu off for me."

The butler trotted over and held out his hand, saying, "Please come in, Mr. Gu."

Seeing Gu Yuanqing's figure disappear, the smile on Prince Qing's face gradually disappeared. He stood for a moment, then turned back and sat down in the hall.

"Your Highness!" After seeing Gu Yuanqing off, the butler quickly returned to the house.

Prince Qing waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, you won't die."

"Is there really a master behind Gu Yuanqing?" The housekeeper looked up at the roof, and there was still a trace of horror in his eyes. Is this the master? His move was completely unreasonable, and a sword flew through the air. It was like seeing a myth.

"Our Majesty is really good at hiding things. I was wondering why he suddenly sent an old man like me here this time. It turns out that he has a trick up his sleeve."

"Your Majesty, didn't you invite the prince here because the prince is highly respected and can suppress these martial arts sects?" the butler asked.

"I thought so too. Now it seems that our Majesty has arranged everything. This time it just happens to be a chance for an old man like me to see it for myself."

The housekeeper was a little confused, not understanding what his prince was talking about. Prince Qing did not explain much, and said calmly: "For today's matter, tell the people below to shut up and not to talk about it to others. Send someone to call up Chen Chuanshan from the Divine Eagle Guard."

"As ordered!"

……

Gu Yuanqing followed the soldiers back to the back mountain, entered his own room, and let out a long sigh.

He seemed to be confident from beginning to end, but when Prince Qing took action, his heart still tightened.

Not to mention that Prince Qing was at the peak of the ninth level of Zhenwu, he was the emperor's uncle and was once known as the military god of the Daqian Dynasty. It would be fine for him to kill you, but if you touched him, you would not be able to stay in the Daqian Kingdom.

Gu Yuanqing boasted that he had some strength and means, but he was not to the point where he could defeat an entire country alone.

"Prince Qing seems to have misunderstood something. This is good. At least it will save me from a lot of trouble. And here in Beiquan Mountain, it's not a bad idea to say that I am a master!"

Gu Yuanqing closed his eyes and looked at the mountain. He "saw" the old man busying himself. His mind moved, and an invisible pressure fell on the old man.

The old man's movements suddenly froze, his face looked extremely ugly, and cold sweat began to appear on his forehead and back. He felt that all the energy in his body was frozen inside, and he felt as if he would die if he moved.

Feng Tao, a middle-aged woman next to them, noticed something strange. She patted the old man on the shoulder, talked in a babble and gestured with her hands.

Gu Yuanqing in the room smiled slightly, and when the breath dissipated, the old man immediately gasped for breath. He guessed in his heart: "Could this master be related to the young master of the Gu family? This also explains why his cultivation can be improved so quickly. If he was taught by the master himself, it would make sense. And now, he must have noticed that I have cultivation and warned me!"

He made a gesture to Feng Tao that everything was fine, then pretended nothing had happened and continued working.

Gu Yuanqing seemed to be thinking about something. His sight passed through the mountain and fell on Chen Chuanshan who was rushing up the mountain. As his mind moved, Chen Chuanshan, who was flying over the treetops, seemed to be under heavy pressure and fell directly from the treetops, breaking several branches and leaves and rolling to the ground.

When Gu Yuanqing saw this scene, he quickly put away his thoughts.

Chen Chuanshan immediately regained his ability to move. He slapped the ground with his palm, rolled over and landed on a hill. He suppressed his anger, grabbed the longbow with one hand, and put the other hand on the tail of the arrow in the quiver. He said in a deep voice: "Which expert is playing such a joke on Chen?"

Eh? Gu Yuanqing felt a little guilty. He didn't expect the commotion to be so big. After all, it was just a thought for him, and he couldn't feel the impact of this idea on others.

Chen Chuanshan stood there for a long time but received no response. He snorted helplessly and continued to walk up the mountain until he arrived at Prince Qing's courtyard.

Prince Qing saw that Chen Chuanshan was covered in dust and looked a bit embarrassed, so he asked, "General Chen, where have you been? You look so dusty."

Chen Chuanshan said: "A senior seemed dissatisfied with what I have done recently. He was on his way just now and suddenly played a joke on me."

Prince Qing was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized who had done this. If he were traveling on the top of the tree and suddenly encountered a situation like before where all internal and external senses were blocked, he would probably not be much better off than Chen Chuanshan at the moment.

"You are indeed a young man. Your thoughts are... quite interesting." Prince Qing laughed in silence. He thought that Gu Yuanqing was unhappy because he was driven to the back mountain by Chen Chuanshan, so he secretly made such a joke.
