Rebirth will carry the villain to the end

Soldier

It is rare for Gu Qingyuan to use practice instead of sleep to meditate all night. With his cultivation level, he will not feel tired but will be very refreshed.It's just that I feel awkward to some extent, as if I haven't rested.

Zhang Yi stayed with him for half the night, he had just started practicing martial arts, and fell asleep because he couldn't last the rest of the night.

When he woke up, Gu Qingyuan was not in the car, Zhang Yi was stunned for a moment and quickly lifted the curtain on the window, leaning his whole body out in a hurry: "Master?"

"Are you awake?" Gu Qingyuan was riding on the horse, and he still looked lazy and unable to raise his energy. If he hadn't taken care of the three thousand soldiers, he would probably have just lay down on the horse.

Zhang Yi's expression looked a little aggrieved: "Master."

"Hungry?" Gu Qingyuan glanced at him, patted his horse half-deadly, and before the expected blockers appeared, he was already starting to regret running out early in the morning to blow the air.

"No..." Zhang Yi finally put his mind back after seeing Gu Qingyuan, and looked around after answering, but this look made him see something different.

Gu Qingyuan brought a total of [-] elite soldiers with him when he left Beijing this time. Zhang Yi's seemingly mighty iron cavalry did not seem to have changed much, but...

"See what?" Gu Qingyuan glanced at Zhang Yi with a half-smile.

Zhang Yi pointed to the "soldiers" in the middle of the team who were wearing heavy armor and couldn't see their faces, and said with some uncertainty: "Those people..."

Gu Qingyuan put his middle finger in front of his mouth, and made a gesture of silence with a smile.

As soon as he let go of his hand, a dense rain of arrows fell on them, and many bandits appeared on the surrounding mountains at the same time, and the sound of killing suddenly started.

"Back in." Gu Qingyuan reined in his horse and took a step back, stood in front of the car and chopped down the arrow that was aimed at An Che, and pressed Zhang Yi's head with his free left hand, pushing him back directly.

The means are quite simple and crude.

Zhang Yi frowned, and didn't rush out any more.Gu Qingyuan brought enough soldiers and horses, all of the Gu family's army were wearing hard armor, and he just saw that the gangsters had survived no more than a hundred people, and their equipment was far inferior to that of the Gu's family's army, so what did they do?

In fact, this group of bandits came to harass them. After a round of arrows shot empty, they turned around and rushed into the vast mountains.

A young general in hard armor had been guarding Gu Qingyuan's side, seeing the bandits running away, he hurriedly asked, "Master Hou, should we chase or not?"

"Chasing, why not chasing?" Gu Qingyuan patted the horse and said casually: "Order the whole army to pursue at full speed."

"Yes." The young general complied with the command that he fell off his horse and was about to pass on the password to Master Hou.

"Wait a minute." Gu Qingyuan called the young general to stop, and said lazily: "You don't have to go too fast, just don't lose track."

Junior: "..."

As a result, a "magnificent" landscape appeared in the Yiyi Mountains. The bandits in front were running with all their strength, and the army behind was chasing leisurely...

In this way, they ran for nearly a hundred miles with inexplicable names (seven) weird (eight) bad things, and when the mountains were densely forested, those bandits finally gave up the state of chasing each other and headed straight into the mountains.

At the end, I didn't forget to turn around and shoot a few back arrows to provoke, lest these regular troops give up chasing.

"Master Hou, we have arrived at the foot of the main peak of the Yiyi Mountain Range. The high mountains and dangerous roads ahead are not conducive to the passage of war horses. If you chase them rashly, you may fall into the opponent's trap." The young general dismounted and knelt in front of Gu Qingyuan with a respectful expression.

They are all the Gu family army, and they have always only obeyed the Gu family.Even though Gu Qingyuan's reputation as a dude spread far and wide, to Gu Jiajun he was the only master in the future.

"This Marquis knows." Gu Qingyuan looked at Yiyi Mountain not far away. The mountains here stretch for hundreds of miles, and there are many peaks and peaks. "Camp here first, send a few people to follow, be careful not to miss their whereabouts, and try to dig out their lair."

"Yes." After taking the order, the young general quickly went to select suitable troops and went up the mountain to inquire about the situation.

Zhang Yi had already changed a pony on the way, and at this time, the horse quickly came to Gu Qingyuan's side: "Master, are we going to wait here for Sixi to come back?"

"En." Gu Qingyuan responded casually, and turned his gaze back to the imperial road not far away.They have been chasing these bandits for so long, but they haven't strayed far from the emperor's road, even though it is the opposite road to Changzhou City.

This imperial road was built in the Hongwu year of the previous dynasty, and now it has a history of 730 years. It was rebuilt in the first ancestor and became the main road for merchants.

Blocking and robbing on this imperial road is tantamount to cutting off the most prosperous commercial route in the world, so it's no wonder that it doesn't flow.

Sixi rode away alone last night to inquire about news, and now it's past noon.Although it was a little far away, with Sixi's footsteps, he should be back soon.

While chasing along the way, Gu Qingyuan also sent someone to leave a mark of contact with Sixi, so that Sixi can find it by following the mark.

As he had expected, Sixi came back wearing a dusty body after setting up camp for less than half an hour.

"Lord Hou." After Sixi got off the horse, he knelt down and saluted directly. The wind and sand nearby were relatively heavy, and Sixi's handsome face was shaved and covered with streaks of dirt.

"Get up and answer." Gu Qingyuan frowned, and found that since taking Zhang Yi as his apprentice, he has become more tolerant of others.

"Yes." Sixi has always known the rules (mass) of her own master (sickness), so she wiped her face first after standing up. "Master Hou, I went to Changzhou City last night. Sure enough, the people in the city are unwilling to mention the bandits. Even the rumors of the passing business travelers do not have the specific location of the bandits' den."

"They don't want to mention it because...it is very likely that the real bandits are hiding among them."

According to the normal situation, the group of bandits must be hiding in this mountain, and even the mountain range of the Three Caves of the Rabbit is a den of bandits.

But Gu Qingyuan had already guessed when he encountered bandits on the way last time. The court didn't have any news about the bandits. Could it be because those bandits were not in the mountains?

"Master." Zhang Yi stayed quietly by the side all the time, taking advantage of Gu Qingyuan's gaps in speaking to give him water to moisten his throat.

Sixi glanced at Zhang Yi with a complex expression, always feeling that his job would be taken away by this kid, and suddenly felt an indescribable sense of desolation, and secretly made up his mind to serve Lord Hou well: "Then, Lord Hou, we are now what to do?"

Gu Qingyuan thought for a while and ordered directly: "Bring five hundred elite soldiers into the city, and the rest will continue to set up camp here." He said with a smile, and bit the last few words very lightly: "Continue to search for those soldiers in the mountains. Bandits in hiding."

Changzhou City is built around the mountains in the Yiyi Mountains, and the whole city itself is not big.Although Gu Qingyuan only brought [-] elite soldiers, he still had the momentum of a large army.

The young general followed An Che on a horse, and said worriedly: "Master Hou, do you think the bandits in this mountain are really related to this city?"

"Who knows." Gu Qingyuan retreated into the car early in the morning, and climbed out when he saw the edge of Changzhou City: "Let's go in first."

Marquis Yong'an was so powerful, before the soldiers approached the city, all the officials in the city came out to greet him, the expressions on their faces were unanimously fearful.

The prefect with the largest official position but also the oldest age knelt down tremblingly before Gu Qingyuan's car stopped: "My subordinate Zhang Tiezhi welcomes the Marquis of Yong'an."

"Master Zhang please get up." Gu Qingyuan leaned lazily on the side of the car and didn't like to move: "This time, the Marquis was ordered by the emperor to come here to suppress the bandits. I wonder if Mr. Zhang knows about these bandits?"

With the support of the young officials behind him, Zhang Tiezhi finally stood up. Hearing this, he said hesitantly: "This...back to Lord Hou, the local weather has always been good, and I have never heard of banditry."

"Then what do you mean..." Gu Qingyuan glanced at Zhang Tiezhi, and asked with a half-smile: "The Holy Majesty's will can't be fulfilled?"

"I don't dare to be an official." Poor Zhang Tiezhi was more than seventy years old and had little cultivation, he was frightened by Gu Qingyuan and knelt down again.

Gu Qingyuan was also afraid that he would accidentally scare the old man to death, and it would be difficult to explain after returning, so he waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's go to the city."

"Master Hou..." Zhang Tiezhi was determined not to get up this time, but the officials behind him didn't move, so he had to kneel down. "I'm afraid there won't be enough space for so many soldiers and horses in the city."

Gu Qingyuan was completely overjoyed: "Could it be possible to let Ben Hou bring people to eat and sleep outside this city?"

Zhang Tiezhi replied with trepidation: "I don't dare, I just..."

"How can you be the prefect if you don't dare to do anything?" Gu Qingyuan was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, so he gave Sixi a wink and asked him to take this old man who was about to block the way to the end and go aside, leading the team Entered the city mightily.

However, Zhang Tiezhi was not wrong. This Changzhou city was originally a small city with fewer than [-] residents. It was indeed not easy to settle the five hundred elite soldiers.

Although Changzhou City is only a thousand miles away from the capital, it is far behind because it is located in a mountainous area.If there is no imperial road passing through this place, I am afraid it is just a barren land that has not been opened up.

There are few warriors in the city, and even if they have cultivation, they will not be too high.Gu Qingyuan led his troops into the city, and the pedestrians in the city gave way one after another. After a while, the whole street was empty.

This time, Gu Qingyuan didn't sit in the car, but rode on his white horse. Zhang Yi also got a pony, and he followed Gu Qingyuan slowly, observing the fleeing people around him.

"Master Zhang, where is the most convenient place for the Marquis to set up camp?" Gu Qingyuan smiled and looked at Zhang Tiezhi who was supported by Sixi and the young general in hard armor, as if he completely forgot that he insisted on entering the city.

Zhang Tiezhi was a little out of breath by the two people. He knew it was hopeless to persuade Gu Xiaohou to leave, so he simply said: "There is a military training ground near the Xiaguan's mansion, but the conditions are relatively simple, and you may have to wrong the soldiers. Yes. As for the Marquis, if you don’t dislike it, you can stay at the Xiaguan’s mansion..."

After he finished speaking, he pointed his finger in the direction, hoping to end the current "torture" soon.

"Then please trouble Master Zhang." Gu Qingyuan smiled, and ran to Master Zhang's mansion without giving Master Zhang a chance to say no to trouble.

The author has something to say:

small theater:

Gu Qingyuan: There are skills in chasing people. It should not be too close or too far. If it is too far away, it will be easy to find problems, and if it is too close, it will cause direct conflict. The best distance is appropriate.

Zhang Yi (thoughtful): Master, I understand.

A few years later, Gu Qingyuan, who was eaten up and wiped clean: Rebel, you are always by my side, why do I never know your disrespectful thoughts! !

Zhang Yi: Because... this is taught by you, Master~ The way of chasing people lies in neither far nor near, neither loose nor tight~

Gu Qingyuan: (⊙v⊙)|||||||Suddenly speechless...

☆, pressing environment

Gu Qingyuan first settled down all the five hundred elite soldiers in the direction Zhang Tiezhi pointed, and then brought a dozen of his own soldiers to Zhang Tiezhi's mansion.

Zhang Tiezhi's mansion was built in the north of Changzhou City. It is a trinary courtyard, not too big, but it has a Jiangnan flavor.

Zhang Tiezhi respectfully introduced Gu Qingyuan into the best courtyard. This place was originally used to receive distinguished guests. The entire courtyard was well arranged, and the mountain spring water was brought down from the nearby mountain.The spring water is clear and sweet, which is very suitable for making tea.

Gu Qingyuan was not dissatisfied, and waved his hand to make Sixi and the young general let go of Zhang Tiezhi.

When Zhang Tiezhi was released by Gu Qingyuan, he was already sweating profusely, and he looked like he was about to collapse.After pleading guilty, he quickly left here, as fast as if he was chasing a scourge behind him.

"Master Hou, if there is nothing else, the old man will go in first." The only purpose of Uncle Gan's trip was to ensure Gu Qingyuan's safety, and he ignored other common matters. Looking at the wing room of the main room, he planned to go in and practice.

"Uncle Gan." Gu Qingyuan quickly walked up to Uncle Gan and whispered a few words before saying: "Then don't disturb Uncle Gan's rest."

Yunjin and Sixi took advantage of their conversation to enter the house first, and changed all the accessories.At this time, the spring water is being boiled, and it is convenient to make tea after Gu Qingyuan comes in.

Zhang Yi has been waiting for Gu Qingyuan at the door of the house, holding the little hedgehog that often rolls himself into a ball and is ready to stab someone at any time. After seeing Gu Qingyuan talking with Uncle Gan, he walked up quickly. Front said: "Master."

Gu Qingyuan rolled his eyelids, always felt that this little apprentice of himself had a clingy habit, he insisted on eating and sleeping together, and he was unwilling to leave him even an inch.But thinking about it, he is still young, so it is normal for him to like to be close to elders.

"Did you see anything on the street just now?" Gu Qingyuan asked casually. Since he entered the city, he found that his little apprentice had been carefully observing his surroundings.

Zhang Yi thought for a while and quickly expressed his feelings: "The people in this city are too afraid of the master. According to common sense, the people generally like to watch the excitement. Unless the streets are cleared specially, there will be regular soldiers in iron armor passing by. You should crowd around and watch, instead of running away in a hurry."

"Fleeing in a hurry is a good word, and your observation skills are also quite good." Gu Qingyuan stretched out his hand and pressed Zhang Yi's head, feeling quite relieved to become an apprentice: "I have a clean and upright atmosphere, and I have never heard of ordinary people. They will be afraid of officers and soldiers, unless they are not ordinary people but bandits."

"Hou Ye." Seeing Gu Qingyuan entering the room, Sixi quickly wiped the red cedar wood chair with his cuff and invited Gu Qingyuan to sit down. Yunjin soaked the tea leaves in spring water at a suitable temperature and placed them in Gu Qingyuan's room. on hand.

This group of people was used to training by Gu Qingyuan when they were in the Hou Mansion, so they are naturally attentive to every aspect of the service.

Zhang Yi has been following behind Gu Qingyuan, unable to intervene at all, and in vain has an added sense of loss that is not needed.His fingers subconsciously pinched the clump of hedgehog in his palm, and as it should have been, he got a red spot on his hand.

"What are you doing?" Gu Qingyuan pulled Zhang Yi's hand away, and Qingjun's eyebrows were tightly knit together: "If you don't like it, just throw it away."

The hedgehog seemed to have sensed the crisis, and it no longer curled up into a ball. It squeaked twice and rubbed its soft belly against Zhang Yi's palm.

Zhang Yi raised his eyebrows and put the little hedgehog away. This was the first gift his master gave him, so he was naturally reluctant to throw it away: "No, I just feel that I can't help the master."

Gu Qingyuan heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the words, and said with a half-smile: "Didn't you help me confirm the identities of the people in this city just now?"

Zhang Yi wasn't depressed because of this, but it was hard for him to express his small thoughts, so he had to bite the bullet and continue: "But there is no conclusive evidence to prove..."

Gu Qingyuan raised his hand to stop what Zhang Yi wanted to say later: "Those are not issues you should consider at your age. I have been riding in the car for the past two days, and even the basic exercises can't be abandoned in a day. You need to practice more .”

Zhang Yi couldn't hold back the joy in his heart: "I know Master, I'm going to practice now."

Zhang Yi said to practice, but he still stayed behind Gu Qingyuan and refused to leave. He was determined to watch Gu Qingyuan discuss matters.

Gu Qingyuan has always been worried about the situation in Beijing, and just wanted to deal with the banditry and return to Beijing as soon as possible. Now that the target has been locked, he naturally doesn't want to waste any more time.

Before Ganbo entered the room, he had already asked the people in this city if there were people with hidden cultivation, but so far Ganbo has not found any masters above innate in this city, and that Zhang Tiezhi is indeed without cultivation. For ordinary people.

Gu Qingyuan touched the rim of the teacup, and said indifferently: "Since they insist that there is no banditry, then we will create some banditry."

Sixi was taken aback and hurriedly asked, "What does Lord Hou mean?"

Gu Qingyuan raised his head and glanced at Sixi, obviously he was too lazy to waste his time talking.

Sixi deserves to be the person who has been with Gu Qingyuan for the longest time, and soon understood the meaning of his words: "Yes, Lord Hou. I'll arrange it now."

After Gu Qingyuan explained, he drove everyone out, including Yunjin.

After everyone left, Zhang Yi finally showed a little smile, and when Gu Qingyuan turned his head, he saw it and couldn't help but stare blankly.He once thought that the child's facial expression was necrotic, so he was expressionless every day except for his expressionless face.

At least it's still laughable.

Nearly half a month has passed since I picked up this cheap apprentice, and the originally skinny child has finally developed a round outline. He already has delicate features, and if he is whiter, he will look even more beautiful.

His current appearance finally completely conformed to Gu Qingyuan's aesthetics, and he couldn't help feeling a little happier.

Zhang Yi approached Gu Qingyuan, refilled the cup with tea, and said as if he had nothing to say: "Master, there is a swordsmanship technique in "Hunyuan Jue"..."

This point was automatically developed after Zhang Yi thoroughly integrated the first layer of the mental method of "Hunyuan Jue".

In addition to the basic sword techniques, there is also a set of coherent sword techniques in "Hunyuan Sword Art".When Zhang Yi just opened it, every move and style in the sword technique was automatically deduced in his mind, and there seemed to be thunder under the sword light.

Pretty amazing.

The first thing Zhang Yi thought when he "saw" the mental method was that this set of sword moves would look very good if his master came to dance.

"Huh?" Gu Qingyuan was still in a daze, and didn't recall Zhang Yi's words until the teacup was handed to him. From this point of view, "Hunyuan Jue" is not a simple method of cultivating the mind, but a combination of skills and mind. inherited.

Gu Qingyuan glanced at Zhang Yi with a strange expression. The "Hunyuan Jue" was actually found in the Fengqi Building of his family. Such a powerful inheritance has been piled up in the corner for so many years, and no one has found it. Is this really reasonable?

Every inheritance needs a lot of chance and fortune. Now it seems that Zhang Yi's chance has already been tied up with the destiny.

"Master, is it better for me than to show you?" Zhang Yi didn't notice Gu Qingyuan's distraction, and his expression rarely showed the eagerness that young people should have.

Gu Qingyuan turned his head, as if he didn't see the light of performance and praise shining in the eyes of the little apprentice: "This is your own opportunity, there is no need to show it to the teacher. If there is something you don't understand, pick it out and serve as a teacher." The teacher will explain it to you.”

Zhang Yi always felt that this was not the answer he was eager to hear, but he couldn't figure out what he really wanted, so he couldn't help feeling a little depressed.

Since "Hunyuan Jue" contains swordsmanship techniques, Gu Qingyuan thought about where to get a good sword for his apprentice, and didn't care about Zhang Yi's silence, but ordered: "You should go to practice, the situation in the city Chaos, don't run around."

"Yes, Master." Zhang Yi could see that Gu Qingyuan had no intention of talking further, so he had to resist the urge to show in front of Master, and honestly went to the corner of the room to meditate and practice.

When I opened my eyes again after this practice, it was already the morning of the second day.

The breakfast set on the table was already completely cold, Zhang Yi didn't care about his hungry stomach, and looked for Gu Qingyuan directly.

He knew that his dependence on Gu Qingyuan had reached the point of being almost paranoid, as long as he couldn't see the other party by his side, he would subconsciously panic.

When he returned to being alone from the fear in his heart, he became the beggar who could be bullied again, and the master who pulled himself out of the quagmire had become the salvation he could not let go of.

But Gu Qingyuan is not in the room now, and there is no smell of him left in this wing.

Zhang Yi's face quickly became gloomy, and he jumped out of bed and ran directly to the door.

"Master Zhang?" Yun Jin almost collided with Zhang Yi when she opened the door, she took two steps back in fright, and quickly wore her usual gentle smile on her face: "Master Hou called me to see if you woke up No."

Zhang Yi raised his head, with an innocent expression on his face: "Sister Yun, what about Master?"

"Master Hou is discussing with Mr. Zhang about arresting the bandits. You must be hungry, right? This servant is going to reheat the breakfast."

Yunjin stepped in directly, picked up the cold breakfast on the table with a smile, and said with emotion: "Master Hou was afraid that you would wake up hungry, so when the breakfast was ready, the servants brought it to you, and it is really cold now. It's clear. This servant has been with Lord Hou for so many years, and it's the first time I've seen him care so much about others."

Zhang Yi's heart fluttered when he heard it, and he took a few steps forward and grabbed Yun Jin's clothes: "Sister Yun, I'm not hungry, I want to find Master."

Yun Jin paused for a moment, and said with some hesitation: "Master Hou probably doesn't have time right now."

The author has something to say:

small theater

Zhang Yi: Master, what do bandits do?

Gu Qingyuan: Raiding houses, molesting big girls and little wives, snatching them home and getting married, doing something shameful...

Zhang Yi: ... (Life is caught in a difficult choice, should I kill the bandits who will snatch Master home, or should I be a bandit and snatch Master back home)

A certain Bandit Mountain King: Ah Choo...it's none of my business!

☆, extortion

Gu Qingyuan is indeed "very busy" now, but someone is busier than him.

The young yamen servant hurried in, leaned into Zhang Tiezhi's ear and said, "Your Excellency, the people are beating drums to express their grievances."

Zhang Tiezhi looked at Gu Qingyuan with a livid face when he heard the words, Gu Qingyuan looked back innocently, Zhang Tiezhi turned his face back stiffly.

After the yamen servant retired, Gu Qingyuan asked quite "kindly": "Master Zhang, but there are still people missing?"

Zhang Tiezhi gasped and said, "Master Hou, why bother to ask questions when you know the truth."

"It's a joke, this Marquis doesn't have the ability to predict the future." Gu Qingyuan paused, and said with emotion: "Those bandits are so arrogant, they dare to rob good people in broad daylight! Absolutely must not be tolerated!"

There has never been such a large-scale missing person case in the city before you came here!What's more, have you ever seen bandits who rob themselves? !

Zhang Tiezhi couldn't speak, his old face turned purple.

Gu Qingyuan was amused, he still hadn't finished a move, so naturally he was not in a hurry to urge Zhang Tiezhi, instead, he sat on the side with his legs crossed and drank tea leisurely, while Sixi, who was standing behind him, looked at him with a wink. Massage his shoulders.

"Master Hou." Zhang Tiezhi gritted his teeth and called out. He didn't invite this ancestor here to show him a joke, but to know what he was going to do! "What do you think we should do now?"

"You have to ask Mr. Zhang about this, right?" Gu Qingyuan blew on the tea and took a sip unhurriedly: "After all, you are the prefect here."

"My officer..."

"grown ups!"

Zhang Tiezhi took a deep breath and was ready to fight for reason, but he was so frightened by the yamen servant who ran in again, his eyes that were originally small became the size of a bull's eye.

The little yamen servant obviously has no eyesight, and he couldn't see the obvious complaining eyes of his own adults. He stuffed the notice in his hand into Mr. Zhang's hand: "My lord! The bandits posted the notice!"

"What?!" Zhang Tiezhi held the notice with trembling hands, and almost lost his breath.

The notice clearly stated: I am the Yi Yi bandit!VIP?take money!A few large characters...

As if afraid that people would not be able to see clearly, he deliberately traced the four characters of "Yi Yi Bandit" with a red pen. The blackmailing is frank and natural.

"This gang of gangsters is really hateful!" Gu Qingyuan did not know when he got behind Zhang Tiezhi, and said "filled with righteous indignation": "Master Zhang, we can't let these gangsters go unpunished!"

"You..." Zhang Tiezhi was so angry that he almost forgot the proper honorific title.

"What advice does Master Zhang have?" Gu Qingyuan deliberately lowered his voice a little, but did not hide the smile in his voice.

Zhang Tiezhi quickly suppressed all the emotions that were exposed: "I don't dare to be, it should be the lower officials who dare to ask Lord Hou... What are you going to do next?"

"Since these thugs have all run into the city, of course we must close the city quickly, find out the thugs who are in the city, and kill them." Gu Qingyuan took the tea handed over by Sixi, slowly ground the teacup with the tea lid, and said "kill an example." Deliberately broke the teacup.

Zhang Tiezhi was startled, and stared blankly at the debris on the ground.

"I'm sorry, my hand slipped." Gu Qingyuan patted Zhang Tiezhi's shoulder: "I believe Mr. Zhang will not disappoint this Marquis, right?"

How Zhang Tiezhi couldn't understand what he meant, he gritted his teeth and said, "I will definitely live up to Lord Hou's entrustment."

Gu Qingyuan has been staying for an entire hour after being pulled over by Zhang Tiezhi, just watching them running around is exhausting, if you have this time, you might as well go back to practice...

Wait, he seemed to think of practicing just now?Gu Qingyuan paused for a moment, and quickly put this overly "diligent" thought to the back of his mind.

The prefect's mansion is on the left side of his mansion, but only half a street away. After stepping out of the door, Gu Qingyuan directly got into the soft sedan chair prepared by Sixi.

He didn't even bother to walk to the door.

Zhang Tiezhi stomped his feet in the back, and now he did not dare to openly disobey Gu Qingyuan's order, so he could only order the city to be closed, and secretly sent his cronies out of the city through secret roads...

At this moment, Zhang Tiezhi finally couldn't help complaining that those people on the mountain were unreliable, and he agreed to lead Yong'an Hou to another road, so why did he go back to Changzhou City?

And is Gu Qingyuan really as stupid as the rumors say?No matter how it looks like...

"Idiot" Gu Qingyuan was stopped in front of the gate of the prefect's mansion just as he was dangling in a soft sedan chair. Zhang Yi held the side of the sedan chair and looked at Gu Qingyuan with an aggrieved expression, his small face was pale from the cold. Hong: "Master..."

Yun Jin, who was standing beside him, hurriedly bent down and said, "Master Hou, it's all the servant's fault for bringing the young master out."

Yun Jin's temperament was trained by Huangfu Yun, Gu Qingyuan didn't need to think about it, but he knew it was absolutely unbelievable, so he directly set his sights on Zhang Yi.

"I'm sorry, Master." Zhang Yi bit his lip and said, "I was the one who refused to go back and wanted to wait for Master to come out."

"Forget it, let's not take this as an example." Gu Qingyuan stretched out his hand and dragged Zhang Yi directly into the sedan chair, hugging him directly in his arms to keep warm: "Let's go back."

Zhang Yi honestly nestled in Gu Qingyuan's arms without saying a word, he could see that Gu Qingyuan was angry just now.Zhang Yi grabbed the corner of Gu Qingyuan's clothes and thought silently, so what... He won't let go of the person he catches.

Gu Qingyuan saw that the little apprentice was lying obediently, and in the end he didn't mention his running around, but told Zhang Yi about the difficulties he encountered when he was meditating and cultivating the mind.

Although there were some bumps and bumps in the explanation, there was no serious problem overall. Zhang Yi finally heard that the bottleneck in his body showed signs of loosening.

Seeing this, Gu Qingyuan was happy to throw the little apprentice out to practice swords by himself. After all, they are in Changzhou City now, and there is no way to find a suitable sword for Zhang Yi, so Gu Qingyuan simply asked Sixi to cut a wooden sword for him to practice.

The size and weight of the newly made wooden sword are very suitable for a seven-year-old child to practice. Zhang Yi waved it twice, and obediently went to practice swords in the yard.

He intended to show Gu Qingyuan the sword dance in "Hunyuan Jue", but it was only when he got started that he realized that it was an impossible task.

Every move and style seemed chic and casual, but Zhang Yi couldn't even match the first move, let alone change his moves coherently.It is as if the body needs to be exerted to a certain extreme in order to achieve it.

After Zhang Yi practiced the basic moves of picking, chopping, and chopping for a long time, he concentrated on learning the first move of "Hunyuan Sword Art".

It only takes a blink of an eye to evolve in the mental method, but it took Zhang Yi a whole stick of incense to completely twist it in place, but at the same time he felt that the mental method in his body was running a little smoother.

Gu Qingyuan sat facing the window all the time, naturally taking all his movements into his eyes.The Gu family is good at marching, and the weapons they use are mainly long weapons suitable for the battlefield, but they are not unaware of other weapons.

In particular, the sword has a gentleman's demeanor of never returning, and the descendants of the Gu family will have some superficial dabbles when they were young.

Therefore, Gu Qingyuan can see the subtleties of Zhang Yi's moves at a glance. Martial arts itself has no boundaries, and Bo Wen Guang Ji's broadening of horizons is more beneficial to practice.

Gu Qingyuan never took a step out of the general's mansion because of his laziness. No matter how talented he is in martial arts, it is inevitable that there will be many obstacles due to his vision and state of mind.At this time, even though he only saw the first move of "Hunyuan Sword Art", he also felt something because of it, and he broke through the bottleneck of the state of mind as if it was a matter of course.

Maybe he should look at some more high-level mental techniques and exercises... Gu Qingyuan frowned, and quickly put these thoughts aside, and the insights he had just had due to the turbulent mood disappeared.

"Has Changzhou City been closed yet?" Gu Qingyuan placed a plate of exquisite snow fruits in his hand. The fruit, which was the size of a steamed bun, was crystal clear and had a strange fragrance just by smelling it.

This kind of fruit contains a lot of vitality, and it doesn't contain impurities like pills.Moreover, the snow fruit will only bear fruit in early winter. If there is no special way to preserve it, it will turn into ordinary snow when it hits the ground.

It would be too extravagant to just eat it as a fruit. If ordinary warriors could get a snow fruit, they would immediately refine the vitality in it.

But looking at the speed at which Gu Qingyuan ate...it was obvious that he had no intention of refining his vitality.

It seems that compared to the genius treasures that the general and the princess have found for him over the years, which can increase his cultivation, this snow fruit can only be eaten as a fruit.

Sixi replied with a smile: "If you go back to Master Hou, the slaves will be watching with their own eyes. The city gate has been closed, and even half a fly cannot be let out."

He would be worried if he couldn't even fly away, Gu Qingyuan yawned lazily, he had already done everything he could do, and the rest depended on when the other party would take the bait.

Gu Qingyuan finally said with a final word: "Okay, it's getting late, and I'm going to go to bed now."

Isn't it early... The sun hasn't set yet...

Marquis, didn't you practice diligently the past two days? !Don't you see that the young master is still cultivating desperately?

Zhang Yi: ...

Gu Qingyuan: ...forget it

A child who acts cute and pretends to be innocent can't afford it! ! ! !

☆, night attack

In the dark night, everything is silent.

A wooden bird flapped its wings and flew over the heavy eaves, landed on the edge of the window, and pecked at the wooden boards on the window with its hard beak.

Gu Qingyuan opened the window only wrapped in a single shirt, and the night wind made him shiver quickly.

His eyes hadn't been fully opened yet, so he reached out and touched the window for a while, finally caught the wooden bird that was still flapping its wings, and grabbed it directly.

"Master." Zhang Yi sat up and rubbed his eyes. He didn't fall asleep until he was about to finish his sword practice. At this time, he opened his eyes only with perseverance.

Gu Qingyuan responded casually, and turned on the candle lamp casually,
