That Person In That River and Lake

  Chapter 558 An Unknown Breath

At the high altitude of the sun, on the top of the mountain, Zhu Xiucai and the three of them were still waiting quietly. You Ji sat on the ground without temperament, releasing her true energy with her fingertips, and shot down a mountain mosquito without releasing it once. At this time, there are everywhere, if not one thousand, there are eight hundred.

   Taoist Wuchen waved his whisk, as if he was competing with You Ji, and there were also mountain mosquitoes all over the place. The two looked at each other from time to time, then turned their heads with a cold snort, as if they had never interacted with each other.

Looking at the two hundred-year-old seniors who have been fighting since last night, Zhu Xiucai has been sighing, his spiritual sense is far away, but it is very subtle. He has seen Gu Qingci make a move and knows the strength of this person. Qiang, afraid that the other party would notice in advance, he has always restrained himself, but he was also worried that he would let Gu Qingci go due to negligence, so he had to stare at the official way from time to time.

However, there are a lot of pedestrians coming and going, Zhu Xiucai did not miss any of them, he looked at each of them very carefully, but none of them was Gu Qingci, occasionally seeing a scholar dressed in white would make him excited .

In fact, people who have reached the realm of Zhu Xiucai have already achieved the point where their hearts are as still as water. Generally speaking, even if the sky falls, it may not be able to make him have the slightest mood swings, but in order to wait for Gu Qingci, he now has a kind of He looked like a frightened bird, especially looking at the two people who were still fighting, his mood became even more irritable.

  Zhu Xiucai's eyes full of gum, his eyes fluctuate, he has crossed thousands of mountains and rivers, looked through autumn waters, and seen the end of the world. He almost couldn't help but want to call Gu Qingci.

   Moreover, he still wants to answer the questioning of those two old guys with a smile on his face.

  Gu Qingci, come quickly, please!

  …

  On the avenue, there were more and more pedestrians. Gu Qingci sat on a donkey with a smile and chatted with the big man next to him.

During the chat, Gu Qingci also learned about the background of these people. It was a young lady from a family in Jizhou who went out. Gu Qingci had never heard of this family's surname Baili. This Jizhou still has a certain amount of noodles.

   Moreover, according to Tie Weiwei, the head of the Baili family is a great practitioner who has been famous for many years. The Baili family has been established in Jizhou for many years and has deep roots.

   Gu Qingci has no interest in this Baili family. With his current status, a family without a grandmaster, unless it is a Confucian or Taoist family, it is difficult to make him interested. He is more interested in this iron guard.

   This iron guard looks big and thick, with a fierce appearance, but he is actually a talkative person, and he is also a caring person. He even specially led the donkey that was pulling the goods together to Gu Qingci for transportation.

   "I look at Mr. Gu, you are handsome, you can see that you are a cultured person, and your conversation is good, you must have a reputation, right?" The guard asked with a smile.

Gu Qingci let out his divine thoughts, but he didn't feel that the words posted by the guards had no other meaning, so he probably just asked casually, then smiled, showing the momentum of a scholar, and said: "No, I am Tiance Thirteen Jinshi of the year."

  As soon as Gu Qingci said this, the guards were shocked, and the guards next to him also looked over in surprise.

Although Gu Qingci did not deliberately observe, but with his state, he could easily feel that even the two people in the carriage were surprised. He knew the two people in the carriage, one was the eldest lady Baili Chanjuan, and the other was the eldest lady's personal maid. .

However, the reactions of all the people were within Gu Qingci's expectations. Now that the Xia Kingdom respects Confucianism, the status of scholars is very high, which also reflects the importance and rarity of fame. The scientific examination is held every three years, and there are countless There are only a few dozens of scholars who can become Jinshi, no matter where they are placed, they are extremely rare.

It's normal to have an impact on people like the Baili family. After all, no one would have thought that a weak scholar randomly picked up by the side of the road would actually be a Jinshi, just like meeting a great practitioner on the side of the road. Shock.

  After the guard was shocked, he cupped his hands and said: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, no wonder I said that Mr. Gu is so eloquent and well-informed. It turns out that he is a Jinshi. What a disrespect!"

Gu Qingci waved his hand and said: "Where, it's just a fluke to be here. Isn't it because I think the officialdom is not suitable for me, so I didn't stay in the court, travel around to study, and improve my knowledge? It's not as chic as being a guard. Cozy."

   "Hahaha," being promoted by a Jinshi, it is still very useful to be a guard, and said: "I am dissatisfied with the young master, although we big **** do not have the stomachs of the young master, but compared to the free and easy, there is still more freedom in the world."

At this moment, there was a soft "Hey" from the carriage, and Baili Chanjuan said, "Tiance has been thirteen years old, so Mr. Gu is the same year as my Great Xia Wushuang Marquis Guhou. Hmm, Mr. Gu is also surnamed Gu, so is he of the same clan as Lord Gu?"

  Baili Chanjuan didn't dare to think of Gu Qing's resignation to the world-famous sword fairy.

  Gu Qingci smiled, and said: "As Miss Baili said, it is indeed the same year, but I and Gu Houye just met once, and the surname is just a coincidence."

   "That's it," Baili Chanjuan said, "It's the little girl who thinks too much, don't blame me, my lord."

   "It's okay, it's okay."

Gu Qingci said with a smile, but at this moment, his heart skipped a beat. Just when Baili Chanjuan opened his mouth, he suddenly felt a strange aura coming from the carriage. I also encountered it sometimes, but I didn't pay attention to it at the time, I just thought it was an illusion, but just now the faint abnormal breath fluctuated again, allowing him to successfully capture it.

  Opening his palm slightly, a trace of black and red mist was locked by Gu Qingci's true energy. At that moment, his heart suddenly jumped. He had seen this cloud of gas before!

  However, this gas should not appear on Baili Chanjuan's body, because the last time he saw this gas was when he killed Tang Zhan, the leader of the Demon Cult.

  This gas is full of a different flavor.

At that time, after he beheaded Tang Zhan, he saw this gas erupting from Tang Zhan's body, as if it was a shadow, but it was fleeting. At that time, he thought it was caused by Tang Zhan's martial arts, but he never thought, I actually saw it on Baili Chanjuan today.

  He really couldn't figure out how a dignified leader of the Demon Cult, a figure at the top of the rivers and lakes, would have anything to do with such a little-known small family.

  The mass of gas suddenly became agitated, trying to escape from Gu Qingci's grasp, but Gu Qingci made a slight movement, engulfed in true energy, and immediately annihilated it.

   At this moment, there was a sudden exclamation in the carriage:

   "Miss, what's wrong with you?"
