Chapter 149
Lu Jian was silent for a moment, thinking that if Ning Bukong went there, he might get news from his grandfather, but it would be incredible to fight a decisive battle in the Forbidden City.Just thinking about it, he felt a warning sign in his heart, and in a blink of an eye, he blurted out: "King of Gudao!"

Gu Zhen suddenly turned around, only to see Gu Shentong standing quietly in front of the door, Gu Zhen's face darkened, and he shouted sharply: "What are you doing here?"

Gu Shentong frowned, and said slowly: "Why did you take Ping'er away?" Gu Zhen said loudly: "She went crazy because of me, and I will take care of her for the rest of her life!" Gu Shentong said in a harsh voice: "So, you Want to leave East Island?"

Gu Zhen nodded and said, "After tonight, I will take Ping'er far away from the Absolute Territory. I will never come back in this life!" Lu Jian was shocked, and looked at Gu Zhen in a daze. Come, actually to say goodbye.

"Gu Zhen!" Gu Shentong sighed softly, "I know you hate me!" Gu Zhen laughed, and his voice was as cold as ice: "How dare I hate you? Gu Shen is not dead, Dong Dao is not dead, who in the world People don't know, who doesn't know?"

Gu Shentong took a deep look at him, turned his eyes, and suddenly fell on Lu Jian again. After examining him for a moment, he frowned and said, "Friend Lu, have you met anyone recently?"

Lu Jianqi asked, "What does the island king say?" Gu Shentong said flatly, "Don't you know? Someone plotted against you and planted a huge disaster in your body."

Lu Jian had fought against Gu Shentong, and he knew that the "Son of Heaven's Watching Qi Technique" had insight into the aura of the three talents of heaven, earth, and people. He must have a reason for saying this, but there is nothing wrong with looking inside luck.Gu Shentong suddenly said: "You can't see it like this." Turning around, he patted it with his palm.

This palm came like a drop from the sky, Lu Jian hurriedly swung his fist to block it.Before the fists and palms were met, Gu Shentong's moves suddenly changed, turning his palms into fingers, and pointing towards his chest.Lu Jian blocked with his right arm, and swept out with his left palm.

They changed several moves in an instant, fists and palms did not meet, the candle on one side was unbiased, burning as before, the strong wind of the two of them was all condensed in the palms of their hands, and not a single bit of it leaked out.Lu Jian only felt that Gu's supernatural powers were killing people, and inadvertently, he also exerted the "Great King Kong supernatural power" to the extreme.After fighting for about ten strokes, Lu Jian suddenly felt that each of the eight extraordinary meridians had a stream of true energy, and each of the eight channels of true energy had eight flavors, ranging from mild to severe, itching, soreness, cold and heat, fluctuating, up and down, like an enemy Fight each other.Lu Jian's energy was blocked, and he watched Gu Shentong's palm fly towards him, but his fist stopped in mid-air, unable to send it out without saying anything.

At this time, Gu Shentong turned around and retreated to the door, as if nothing had happened.Lu Jian breathed a sigh of relief, and when the "Great Vajra Power" arrived, the eight strands of true energy shrank back one after another.

This situation is very strange, Lu Jian was puzzled, and only heard Gu Shentong said: "Friend Lu, the evil fetus in your body is called 'six deficiency poison', hidden in the eight extraordinary meridians, and it usually circulates and assimilates with your own true energy, but once When encountering a truly powerful enemy, when one's skills are exhausted, they will suddenly attack. At that time, the eight strengths will be disordered, and they will attack each other, and finally the true strength will be blocked, and they will be defeated."

Lu Jian thought about it a few times, and suddenly remembered a person, and cried out: "It's him..." Gu Shentong said, "Is that person tall and thin, with a little cinnabar mole on his left eyebrow?" Lu Jian listened What he said was exactly the same as that of Mr. Ruoxu, he was surprised and nodded repeatedly.

Gu Shentong's eyes were sharp: "Where is he?" Lu Jian shook his head: "I don't know!" Gu Shentong asked again: "How did he plant the Liuxu poison on you?" Lu Jian told the story of escape. , said angrily: "I help him wholeheartedly, why does he still want to harm me?"

"God's will! God's will!" Gu Shentong smiled wryly and shook his head, "There are only two ways to get rid of that person's catastrophe. One is not to use martial arts for life, and the other is to divide the inner demon into two and share it with two people. There are many difficulties and dangers in the method of demons. Only a suitable person can bear the half of the inner demons on his behalf. This person has supernatural powers, and the inner demons born are unparalleled in the world. A master of "spiritual refining" can only help him succeed if he has a firm mind and subdues all demons. The number of masters of "spiritual refining" is limited, except for himself, the fish monk counts as one. Two people. I have a deep hatred with him, so naturally I won't help him, originally his life was dead, but you helped him escape from death with a single thought of kindness."

When Lu Jian heard this, he had a vague guess, and felt his heart beating faster. He couldn't help asking, "King Gudao, who is that man?"

Gu Shentong glanced at him, and said coldly: "He is my lifelong enemy, and my nickname of 'Gu Shen Immortal' is also thanks to him."

"Wanguizang!" Lu Jian blurted out, and Gu Zhen on the side also trembled in response.

Gu Shentong didn't take it seriously, and said with a smile: "Friend Lu, you don't have to worry. The sage said: 'The strong place goes down, the weak place goes up', the way of heaven never loves the strong, but favors the weak. Knowing this truth, that's why he repays his kindness and planted the 'six deficiency poison' in your eight extraordinary meridians, heh, it shows that he is also very guilty!"

Lu Jian frowned and said, "Why is he guilty?" Gu Shen said, "Wan Guizang and I were both over [-] years old when we practiced the gods. You have already entered the court at a young age, and given time, you must be his formidable enemy. This man is decisive and ruthless. If he hadn't cared about his status and appreciated your great kindness, he might not have allowed you to live when he escaped the robbery. According to my selfish guess, even though he didn't kill you at that time, he would have to guard against it in the future , so that the 'six deficiency poison' is planted in your body, if you become an enemy with him in the future, if you draw the poisonous gas when fighting, you will definitely die in his hands."

Lu Jian's scalp exploded when he heard this, and he thought that Wan Guizang's hands were bloody, how many people died this time around.He made a big mistake unintentionally, the more he thought about it, the more he blamed himself, he raised his head and said: "Senior Gu, is there a way to break the 'six deficiency poison'?"

Gu Shentong nodded and said: "The mind of Dao is weak, there is no way to break it. With the poisonous gas of six deficiency, there is a way to break it." Speaking of this, he frowned slightly, Lu Jian saw that he seemed to have difficulties, and hurriedly said: "What kind of method? , I hope the seniors will tell you."

Gu Shentong sighed: "The so-called six deficiency poisons are originally the 'eight strengths of Zhou Liu' cultivated by Wan Guizang. "Liu Liuxu Gong" has the ability to control the eight energies. Others don't know how to do it. The "eight energies" enter the body and fight against each other. They can't survive or die. If Wan Guizang wants to punish someone, he can only You need to inject true energy into the meridians of that person. Therefore, the solution to it is also very simple. You only need to try to find the eight poisonous gases in the strange scriptures, force them into an air mass, and then find a living person to "Great King Kong" Divine power' forced into his lower abdomen'dantian'. The poison gas leaves the body, and the poison of the six deficiency is naturally cured."

Lu Jian hesitated: "Isn't this method harming others and benefiting oneself?" Gu Shentong said, "You can go to the prison and steal a heinous death row prisoner, and put your true energy into his body." Lu Jian thought for a while and asked again : "Is there any other way?" Gu Shentong shook his head and said, "Not yet."

After saying this, seeing that Lu Jian was still hesitating, he couldn't help but smiled wryly, and took out a thin booklet from his arms: "Tomorrow I will fight with others, and I will not know whether to live or die. This book contains some ideas, you He is a master of refining gods, so it must not be difficult to understand."

Lu Jian didn't pick it up, and it didn't work if he didn't pick it up. Suddenly, Gu Zhen pushed him, so he had to reach out to take it, cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Island King, I've checked it out, and I'll return it immediately!"

"I'll talk about it while I'm alive!" Gu Shentong sighed softly, looking at Gu Zhen, "Are you leaving tomorrow?"

"It has nothing to do with you!" Gu Zhen's voice was hoarse.

Gu Shentong was silent for a while, and said in a low voice: "Tomorrow, I won't send you off!" Gu Zhen said coldly: "I wish for it!" Gu Shentong smiled wryly, and walked out the door.

Lu Jian couldn't help but asked, "Gu Zhen, do you really want to leave Zhongtu?" Gu Zhen nodded silently.Lu Jiandao: "But King Gudao..." Gu Zhen waved his hand, "I'm tired and want to sleep for a while!" After finishing speaking, he went into the bedroom.

Lu Jian picked up the booklet and looked at it close to the candlelight, he couldn't help being surprised.As stated in the love letter, it is the "Emperor's Observation of Qi Technique", which is a method of illuminating the spirit from the inside, peeking at the mystery from the outside, and talking about the mystery.

When he entered the bedroom late at night, Gu Zhen was already fast asleep. He was lying there, as if his long-stretched bowstring had been relaxed, and there was a rare trace of fatigue between his brows.Looking at his friend, Lu Jian vaguely felt that although Gu Zhen's grievances had been washed away, Gu Zhen's vitality seemed to be exhausted.

The next day was three poles high, and Gu Zhen just got up. He was listless and lazy, and he talked to Lu Jian, but only a few words.Lu Jian tried to persuade him to reconcile with his father several times, but Gu Zhen was always rambling, and only when facing Gu Pinger, he smiled a little, trying his best to make the girl happy.

In the blink of an eye, it was already afternoon, and suddenly heard the sound of carriages and horses, Gu Zhen said: "Here we come!" Pulling Gu Ping'er up to go out, Lu Jian followed behind, and went out to see that there were several large carts in front, and there were a few maidservants standing beside them The servants, led by Yu Chuan and Hong Shu, took a step forward and saluted Lu Jian to say hello.

Lu Jian returned the gift, and Yu Chuan said again: "Master Gu, the big ship is parked by the sea, we set off now, and we can sail away tomorrow morning!"

Gu Zhen nodded, his eyes wandering. He held the wheel and thought for a while, then suddenly said: "Lu Jian, can you give me a ride?" Lu Jian sighed: "It should be!"

The two got into the car and sat side by side. Gu Ping'er lay on Gu Zhen's lap talking and laughing. After a while, she got tired and fell into a deep sleep.Gu Zhen looked at the girl with complicated and difficult eyes. The curtain was lifted, the carriage was heading east, and the outline of Nanjing City gradually became fainter and blurred.

The setting sun sank to the west, and the treetops on the top of the forest were stained with blood, and the twilight passed by inside the car, flickering, and the faces of the people in the car also changed accordingly.

"Lu Jian!" Gu Zhen said suddenly, "Tell me, in today's battle, who will win in the East Island and West City?" Lu Jian mused, "The king of Gu Island has supernatural powers. If there is only the master of the eight tribes, it may not be difficult to win." , but..." At this point, he hesitated to speak.

"Wanguizang?" Gu Zhen looked out of the car, his voice was light and ethereal.Lu Jian hesitated for a while, and said softly, "Mr. Ruoxu is really Wan Guizang, and Dong Dao may be at a disadvantage!"

"Under the wind?" Gu Zhen shook his head, "Wan Guizang is here, there is no superiority, only life and death!" Lu Jian smiled wryly, "I don't think Mr. Ruoxu is so hateful..." Gu Zhen waved his hand suddenly, Raised the curtain and shouted at the coachman: "Turn the horse's head and return to Nanjing quickly!"

The driver froze for a moment, turned around like a whirlwind, and returned to Nanjing with a splash.Lu Jian was both surprised and delighted, knowing that Gu Zhen couldn't let go of his father's safety, so he decided to participate in the discussion on Taoism and God Extermination.

As the carriage bumped, Lu Jian's mood also fluctuated. He thought to himself how many people would be killed or injured in a battle tonight. As Monk Yu's disciple, he had the duty to resolve disputes.

He made up his mind, and his mind was relieved, and then he looked at Gu Zhen, frowning, as if he was in deep thought.Neither of them said a word until the carriage drove into the city gate.

When he arrived outside Cangbo Lane, Gu Zhen settled Gu Ping'er, was stunned for a while, and suddenly said: "Lu Jian, I have something to ask you!" Lu Jian said: "What?" Gu Zhen sighed: "What's wrong with me, please Take care of my sister!" Lu Jian said: "Don't say such discouraging words! King Gudao may not lose!"

Gu Zhen remained silent and stepped forward.The night market is in full swing, the lights are shining everywhere, and the carts and horses are driving towards the Qinhuai River in twos and threes.Many shops were already closed, and the sound of dialing abacus in the shops formed a small sound wave.

Just after Shen Shi, the sky has already darkened, and the shadow of the outer city behind him is like a long winding dragon, the beginning and the end of which cannot be seen.The lights on the top of the city are bright, like the shining golden scales on the back of a dragon. In contrast, the Forbidden City in front is eerie, like a hidden hungry tiger, grinding its teeth and sucking blood, and jumping out at any time.

"Lu Jian!" Gu Zhen said abruptly, "During the Three Kingdoms period, Zhuge Liang once said that the stone city of Nanjing is 'the bell is full of dragons, the stone city is full of tigers, this is the residence of the emperor', but he forgot that hundreds of years ago , the first emperor dug open the Qinhuai River to vent Nanjing's royal spirit. Because of the lack of royal spirit, most of the dynasties that established their capital here were hasty and short-lived. The Eastern Jin, Song, Qi, Liang, and Chen were all like a flash in the pan. Zhu Hongwu of this dynasty did not believe in evil, but not long after his death, this city was captured by his son Emperor Yongle." Speaking of this, he paused, and said quietly, "Lu Jian, do you believe in the destiny?"

"I don't know either!" Lu Jian went up and down with his fate all his life, like a fish in water, almost forgetting the existence of water.

Gu Zhen glanced at him, and smiled wryly: "Since Tianji Palace moved to the east, Dongdao has experienced more than three hundred years. Just like this city, even if it is beautiful for a while, it can't last long. Maybe, God has already disgusted us!"

Lu Jian thought for a while, then sighed softly, "Gu Zhen, you've changed!" Gu Zhen nodded and said, "Yeah, I can't do anything right now!" He looked up and murmured, "This The city is so quiet!"

Lu Jian raised his head in response, and inadvertently, the Forbidden City was in front of him. There were no candles, no guards, and the city gate was open, like a deep and wide mouth.

The two walked up the Yudai Bridge, crossed the Yushui River, passed through the city gate, and suddenly saw a number of forbidden soldiers lying on the ground.Lu Jian stretched out his hand to touch it. The soldier's mouth and nose were still breathing, but he was sleeping like death.

"Don't bother!" Gu Zhen said abruptly, "That's 'Beidou Fengshen'." Lu Jian was taken aback, and blurted out, "King Gudao controls the people in this city?" Gu Zhen looked around , Said lightly: "The Forbidden City, fell asleep!"

"Sleeping?!" Lu Jian glanced around, but Gu Zhen had already walked forward.The moonlight fell from the sky, passing over the figures of the two, and dragging out slender and ethereal shadows.Along the way, the imperial guards, eunuchs, maids, and handymen were all like puppets and clay sculptures, standing on both sides blankly, some sitting, some lying, and some standing there, making clear and long snoring sounds.
