Chapter 334 Snacks
So does Black Monkey have a third ending? I'm so anxious, I'm so anxious. I'm King Jiji...
……
Gu Meng was relatively relaxed in this world. After observing for a while, he thought there shouldn't be any dramatic changes and the food was about the same level as the original. So he just leisurely picked up his chopsticks and tasted the food.
After taking a few bites, he found that Ruan Yushu was staring at him while enjoying the food. He did not move his chopsticks. There was a hint of heat in his eyes, and he would occasionally glance at the dishes on the table.
"Eat, I'll treat you." Gu Meng said with a smile, looking a little confused.
Ruan Yushu nodded slightly, then picked up the chopsticks and picked up the Kun meat.
Her movements were graceful and her eating manners were elegant, but her speed was terrifying. Gu Meng was eating at a normal speed and had only taken seven or eight bites, but she had already devoured most of it in a flash.
"Um, although...but..."
Although I know she is a foodie, this is too fast.
And you can eat so fast yet be quite elegant. Are you King Arthur too?
Gu Meng stared at Ruan Yushu in amazement, unable to believe that such a beautiful girl with a cool appearance and a cool temperament would behave like this.
Ruan Yushu blushed slightly and raised his head and said, "You treated me to a meal. I, I am not a very polite person."
Gu Meng almost laughed out loud, and suddenly felt that Ruan Yushu's image became much more friendly, as if he had walked out of the book.
"Your tricks just now were quite powerful. I'm optimistic about you!"
The relationship between the two improved a little, and Gu Meng also praised him.
Ruan Yushu nodded without any modesty, looking a little proud.
She swallowed the food in her mouth, took out a handkerchief and wiped her mouth: "It's a pity that I didn't see you take action."
"Oh why?"
"You look only slightly older than me, but you have a record of killing outsiders. There must be something special about you. I am curious too."
After being persuaded by Gu Meng, Ruan Yushu talked a little more.
"Haha, it's just that I'm more talented."
Gu Meng was polite, but he felt quite comfortable inside.
Ruan Yushu said calmly, "I wonder what kind of demeanor Ba Dao will have when he takes action? Will he really be so domineering that he can suppress all enemies he sees?"
Gu Meng restrained a smile and said, "This is just the flattery of the people in Jianghu. If I really face a Dharmakaya, whether I can suppress it is still unclear."
In fact, it cannot be suppressed now, there is still a gap, but Gu Meng has made up his mind to break through directly when encountering a confrontation with the Dharma body. He has skill points in his hands and can break through at any time. It is much better than Pang Ban who has to fight a big battle. It's just for a sense of ritual.
Moreover, Gu Meng felt a little embarrassed to be on the human list - it was too bullying - don't wait any longer, just find a proper occasion after entering the real world and break through quickly. The idea of the Great Asura before was a bit reckless. Even if he was confident that he would not be afraid of the Dharmakaya after breaking through with four skill points when he met the Dharmakaya, there was no need to take unnecessary risks.
Ruan Yushu picked up the bamboo chopsticks again and picked up the remaining food. She lowered her eyes and drooped her head slightly.
While eating, I was thinking, what a big tone he has. No wonder he is the eldest brother of the Thunder Blade Mad Monk. Killing a guy is nothing. Now he is saying that he dares to compete with the Dharma body in aura. He is really arrogant.
Do you think you are the son of some ancient immortal god?
How dare I think of comparing my mortal body with the Dharmakaya immortals? I don't dare to think about it...
…………
When we returned to the meeting room, Lu Zhongqi was already waiting there. He nodded and said:
"It is said that Gao Tong died suddenly due to an acute illness, but I believe it is not such a coincidence. Brother Gu, Miss Ruan, you have really relieved us of our worries. I will take you to see General Lu now."
As he spoke, his eyes swept across the seven-stringed harp that Ruan Yushu was holding, and his expression seemed thoughtful.
He had followed Lu Guan for many years and was very experienced in observing people and things. He did not believe that Gu Meng, who had the aura of a master and the bearing of a grandmaster, would use other means to kill people.
Judging from what Gu Meng said before, he no longer regarded Gao Tong and his men as human beings, and treated them like grass. If such an arrogant person took action, he would definitely rush in and launch an unparalleled "assassination".
There are almost no people in the martial arts world who use the lyre as a weapon. The girl surnamed Ruan must have had some special means, so she must have been the one who did it.
"They are too weak."
Gu Meng answered briefly, and Ruan Yushu maintained his cool and detached air, nodding slightly without saying a word.
Lu Zhongqi didn't say much. He took the two of them through twists and turns to a busy street in the city and entered a grocery store on the street.
He walked straight through the grocery store and entered the yard at the back. The shop owner and his clerks all looked straight at him and pretended not to see him.
There were about ten martial artists armed with swords and knives in the yard, both men and women, divided into three or four groups, chatting.
Seeing Gu Meng and Ruan Yushu following Lu Zhongqi in, they all looked over in slight surprise. It was not because of anything else, but because they did not expect the new companion to be so young. How strong could such a young knight be?
Lu Zhongqi nodded at them, walked straight past them, and led Gu Meng and the others to the study.
"General Lu defeated the Western Tartars many times and recovered the lost territory, but he was framed by the treacherous prime minister and banished to this place, which made many heroes admire him and feel indignant. After the news of his trip to the capital spread, many friends came to escort him, but there were too many people and it was easy for the news to leak out. In addition, some heroes were not very strong. If we let them join, their lives would be harmed for nothing."
On the way to the study, Lu Zhongqi casually introduced them, "So I observed their strengths, set up tests, and declined most of my friends. The remaining dozen or so are all highly skilled in martial arts and trustworthy."
Great martial arts skills... well... never mind, since he is a righteous man, Gu Meng won’t say much.
After passing through a road guarded by several family guards, they arrived in front of the study, and Lu Zhongqi knocked on the door respectfully.
"Zhongqi, come in."
Lu Zhongqi pushed open the door and motioned for Gu Meng and Ruan Yushu to wait. After going inside and reporting a few words, he came out and invited the two in.
"My two friends are so kind, I am really ashamed." Lu Guan said politely. He was seven feet tall, dark-skinned, with five long beards under his chin. The most outstanding thing on his face was his eyes, which were bright and full of determination.
Gu Meng bowed and said, "General Lu is a hero to all the people in the world. He serves his country and his people, and is a great chivalrous man. We are willing to go through fire and water for him. With Gu here, I will make sure you are safe."
He did not exchange pleasantries and spoke briefly and to the point. If someone else had come to see Lu Guan, they would have said more and would not have been as arrogant as Gu Meng. However, the fact that Gu Meng was willing to say this nice thing was already a respect for his prototype.
In his last world, he skipped the polite part in the Demon Tomb... Of course, that was also because he had teammates like Xiao Meng and Zhang Yuanshan in the last world who could speak for Gu Meng. Now, he only has Ruan Yushu, who looks cool (but is actually a bit socially anxious), by his side, so he should speak for himself.
"To serve the country and the people is the greatest virtue of a hero..." Lu Guan's expression changed and he repeated this sentence in a low voice.
"Well, General Lu is the real hero!" There were two other people beside Lu Guan, one was an old man in brocade robe with a graceful demeanor, and the other was a Taoist priest carrying a sword, with a lion nose and tiger eyes. He was the one who was speaking.
Lu Zhongqi introduced them. One was the Tiger Taoist Jin Yan, and the other was the owner of Guanshui Tower Jiao Chong. They were considered the top masters among this group of martial arts world, and perhaps the most famous, so they almost became the leaders of the martial arts world and protected Lu Guan closely.
After greeting each other, the passionate Tiger Taoist praised: "You two young friends have such skills at such a young age. You are really young and promising. But what I admire most is that you know the righteousness and the greatness of chivalry. You are not afraid of danger and come to help. Heroes emerge from the youth!"
Jiao Chong also smiled and said: "I haven't seen such outstanding young people in many years. Your future is definitely limitless."
As senior masters, the two of them gave a few half-seriously complimented words, and Gu Meng and Ruan Yushu, at least in front of strangers, were the kind of masters who were ruthless and taciturn, so they didn't say much and were just perfunctory in their responses.
Then Lu Guan expressed his life's ambition, which was to defeat the Western Tartars outside and get rid of the treacherous prime minister inside. Gu Meng nodded. Although Gu Meng in this life was not a macho man like Gu Meng in Zongwu who was willing to take on everything, he always had respect for such heroic characters.
Lu Zhongqi originally planned to let them join other martial artists to patrol and guard in teams, but considering that the two were taciturn, one indifferent and the other cold, and seemed difficult to get along with others, he simply asked them to follow him.
After a few days, Gu Meng and his party quietly left Yuexi and protected Lu Guan to go to the capital.
…………
Omitted. Gu Meng showed off his dominance a little bit, and the knights who followed him knew who was the boss. The targets of this wave of showing off were generally of lower level, so they will not be mentioned here.
There is no major conflict. After all, they are in the same camp and it is just a test.
It was dinner time that day, and the son of the Lu family who had gone out to buy food and wine returned. Ruan Yushu immediately became interested - by the way, Gu Meng also found that Ruan Yushu looked cold, but was actually quite interesting.
In addition to being a foodie, she is also a bit sinister. She either really cheats people or takes advantage of them with her mouth. She is a bit like Gu Meng, but Gu Meng is obviously at a higher level and is very domineering, which is why she has never succeeded in cheating Gu Meng.
When the food arrived, as was customary, they carefully checked for toxins and had a black dog taste each item.
After a while, the black dog was still safe and sound, so some people took away their own share of the food and wine, and left the rest for the group that was on patrol.
Gu Meng saw Ruan Yushu standing there in a daze. The foodie didn't move at all. It was strange...
The limited edition of Gu Meng's detective mode of finding clues at the beginning has been offline, but it still maintains the wisdom that stands out among many Gu Mengs - the wisdom of a mortal rather than the wisdom of the sky.
I had guessed something and asked, "Miss Ruan, why don't you go?"
Ruan Yushu frowned slightly, with a hint of confusion: "It doesn't seem to taste good, a bit strange."
Is this the sixth sense of a foodie?
Gu Mengjiu transferred his true energy into his eye holes, opened his third eye and took a look. There was a ball of black gas in the rice. It did not cause any harm to him and his intuition did not give any warning, but it should be poisonous.
Just as I was thinking this, I saw several people covering their throats. When He He made a sound, they fell down with black faces and were about to die.
Gu Meng simply used the Star Absorbing Technique to suck the person over to promote his energy and eliminate the toxins.
And the black dog is still alive and kicking.
"This style of poisoning..." is a bit like Gu Long's novels.
Several gangsters who had not yet started eating for various reasons threw away the food and wine in their hands as if they were avoiding snakes and scorpions, and the yard was immediately filled with the aroma of wine.
"Du Wuchang!" Except for Gu Meng and Ruan Yushu, everyone including Lu Zhongqi shouted in unison, with obvious fear in their voices, and each of them took a defensive posture.
Upon hearing the noise, Lu Guan, Jiao Chong and Taoist Hu also rushed to the yard with the same solemn expressions.
After a while, those people were rescued by Gu Meng, but they were still scared. Gu Meng took out some tranquilizing pills from the gourd he carried with him... but he felt it was unnecessary and took them back. It was not that he was reluctant to spend the money, it was just a drop in the bucket. It was simply unnecessary as his true energy was too effective in healing.
The crowd, who were originally very worried, looked at Gu Meng in surprise when they saw that no one died.
Du Wuchang is a famous demon in the Jiangnan area of this world. He is good at hiding and poisoning. His methods are ever-changing and unpredictable, making it hard to guard against him. Ordinary warriors are completely helpless after being poisoned by him.
And there was the scene before where he sucked people in from the air. How powerful is this young man?
Could it be that he has become a rare and top master in the world?
Well, the truly best people in this world are the National Master, the Demon Queen, and other great masters who have begun to comprehend the Way of Heaven, and there are only five of them.
The next level is the top human beings such as the Evil King, the Ghost King, the Ruyi Monk, and the Xiyue Zhenren. At most, there are about ten people, and there are also differences in strength among them. Among them, the Evil King has the greatest hope of becoming a grandmaster.
These are rare figures, and most people in the martial arts world would never meet them at all. Under normal circumstances, the only people they can come into contact with are famous masters and first-class masters from all sides.
Since fighting is easily affected by various factors, realm is not equal to strength, so who is stronger and who is weaker can only be judged roughly based on the battle record.
In short, it's like The Twin Dragons.
Using the algorithms of the main world all means enlightenment, but the master has spiritual powers, just like the main world's ancestral orifice between the eyebrows, which is the unity of man and nature?
Gu Meng has traveled through time many times and seen a lot, so there is nothing strange about it. This world is also one of the worlds that is not much different from the real world. Some worlds follow the ancient methods of cultivating immortals or have a variety of real infinite flows. Those are really weird.
Du Wuchang himself is relatively weak and may not be able to be ranked among the top masters, but he is extremely skilled in the use of poison. In terms of reputation, he is considered a famous figure. Everyone in the group is afraid of him. If they meet other masters, they can at least fight hard, but if they meet him, they can only die in despair and panic.
However, this world has spiritual powers. If the toxicity is strong, it will be easily detected by people. If the toxicity is weak, it will be forced out by the internal force of real masters. Therefore, Du Wuchang still cannot squeeze into the ranks of evil kings and ghost kings.
While the people in the martial arts world were talking about it, they unconsciously confided in Gu Meng, the master and genius doctor, and told him a lot of things about Du Wuchang, as if to remind Gu Meng and Ruan Yushu to be careful of Du Wuchang, but Gu Meng could hear that they were taking this opportunity to vent their inner fear.
Although he was mentally prepared, he was still afraid when the poisonous snake approached. It was human nature. It was not shameful but honorable that he was willing to escort Lu Guan even though he was afraid, regardless of whether he did it for fame or not.
Gu Meng nodded slowly and said, "I understand...Du Wuchang, I will find him and kill him."
