Chapter 183 Picking the Stars

Chapter 183 Picking the Stars

Gu Chaoci has been staying at Mantuo Villa for three days. Perhaps Mrs. Wang is really reluctant to leave this place.

But although she didn't mention leaving, nor did she say what the marriage was like, she didn't argue with Gu Chaoci that she was the mother-in-law. Perhaps she just felt that although her daughter and Gu Chaici were not a done deal, she was still completely devoted to him, and there was no way she could change it.

, other than acquiescence, there seems to be no good way.

Gu Chaoci also knew etiquette. In any case, it had only been a few days since Wu Yazi passed away, so it was not easy to mention the marriage. As long as the names were settled first, that would be good.

Moreover, as long as he stayed at Mantuo Villa for one day, he was not afraid of Xiao Yuanshan's conspiracy, and he would not rush him. Anyway, with Wang Yuyan by his side, he would happily enjoy this rare peace.

On this day, Gu Chaoci was meditating in his room and thinking about martial arts. Suddenly Wang Yuyan said outside the door: "Gu Lang, my mother invites you to the main hall to discuss matters!"

Gu Chaoci knew that although Mrs. Wang was trapped by love, she was actually an outstanding figure in today's martial arts world. She had a large business and took care of it in an orderly manner.

The director is usually calm and calm. He has never disturbed himself in the past few days. Now that he calls himself out, something big must have happened. He quickly shakes up his clothes and goes out, asking as he walks: "Do you know what is going on?"

Wang Yuyan shook her head: "I don't know too much. Just now I heard Youcao say that Granny Rui and Granny Ping are back, and my mother asked me to go with you to discuss matters."

Gu Chaoci said "Oh" and stepped forward. Within a moment, he and Wang Yuyan had arrived at the main hall.

As soon as he stepped through the threshold, he saw the main hall brightly lit with candles, and a large group of maids in blue standing on both sides, each holding a sword in one hand and standing upright.

Gu Chaoci glanced around and saw that no one was sitting in the middle chair. Sitting on the lower left side of the hall was Li Qiu Shui, wearing a white shirt.

Sitting on the lower right side is Mrs. Wang, the owner of "Manto Villa", with two old women standing behind her on both sides.

On the left is an old woman with white hair, a broad and short face, criss-crossed ditches, drooping white eyebrows, a short body, but holding an iron crutch, which looks heavy.

Another old woman is very fat, with a protruding belly, like a pregnant woman. Her hair is gray, her face is full of flesh, and she has two broad-bladed short knives stuck on her left and right waists.

As soon as everyone in the hall saw Gu Chaoci and Wang Yuyan appear, everyone except Li Qiushui and Mrs. Wang, who were sitting on chairs, all came to greet them.

Gu Chaoci and Wang Yuyan nodded slightly, and they each sat on the chair on the left.

Mrs. Wang waited for the two of them to sit down and said loudly: "I just received news that there is a crazy rumor in the world that my "Manduo Villa" has a mountain of treasures, and there is also a secret book of martial arts in the world, such as the palm score of the 'Twenty-eight Dragon Subduing Palms'.

'Dog Beating Stick Technique', 'Six Meridians Divine Sword', 'One Yang Finger' fingering technique, Shaolin's seventy-two stunts, etc. are all available. It is also said that the reason why Gusu Murong was able to enjoy it was 'to repay the other person with his own way'

His famous name is all due to my cousin!"

As soon as Mrs. Wang finished speaking, her eyes were like lightning. She glanced at the seats where Gu Chaoci and Wang Yuyan were sitting, and said, "Yan'er, what do you think?"

Gu Chaoci felt very sorry, knowing that this was his revenge for provoking Lai, and there was a high probability that it was Xiao Yuanshan and A'Zhu who did it.

Wang Yuyan pondered for a moment and said: "This is hard to say. Whether we have these things in our hands is actually not important anymore.

It doesn’t matter who is so vicious, but in the face of this kind of thing, even if people in the world are doubtful, they will take action!"

Gu Chaoci sighed: "That's right, most people in the world are chasing fame and fortune, and they are greedy for profit!

Just like in the streets and alleys, the most vicious strategy to frame others is not to make false accusations to the government, nor to throw a few broken bricks at your house at night, but to quietly spread the word to everyone: There are several jars of gold and countless silver hidden underground in this house.

In a few days, robbers will come to the door and destroy the family!

Even though this family member is dead, they still don’t know why.

It is the same in this world. If anyone hates a certain sect or person, he will spread the word that he has invincible martial arts secrets. No matter whether it is a gang or an individual, at worst, it will lead to the destruction of others, at worst, it will cause endless trouble.

.

Even if some people suspect that these are the words of a fool, they are not trustworthy! But this kind of vicious plan is always effective!"

Li Qiushui also said solemnly: "Yes, once this news comes out, Mantuo Villa will never have peace!

Even though the Shaolin Temple is a master of martial arts, with many masters, and is known as the "authentic martial arts in the world", just because of the secrets of martial arts, every day, every year, I don't know how many people come to patronize them, openly or covertly!"

It is very rare for her not to have a few words from Gu Chaoci tattooed on her.

Mrs. Wang also knew that this matter was not trivial. After she learned about these things, she immediately realized that there must be someone behind the scenes.

This is to take advantage of people's greed and destroy her Mantuo Villa. And the other party can achieve her goal without even showing her face, let alone moving her hands.

And she knew that this person was attracted by Gu Chaoci, and she was just the target of his anger!

Then she looked at Wang Yuyan and said with a smile: "Yan'er, tell me this, could it be Arjuna's little girl..."

Wang Yuyan pondered for a moment and said: "My family's Langhuan Jade Cave and my cousin's Huanshi Shui Pavilion contain martial arts classics, which outsiders have no way of knowing!

But it’s not necessarily that A’Zhu did it to avenge Qiao Feng!

Xiao Yuanshan is a great man of his generation, and it would not be difficult for him to come up with such a vicious plan to take revenge on my family!"

Mrs. Wang Zhen nodded lightly, raised her left hand, moved her fingers lightly, and said leisurely: "Grandma Rui, tell me what news you have now, please tell me!"

The old woman behind her, holding an iron crutch, lowered her eyebrows and responded: "Yes, madam!"

This Granny Rui is Mrs. Wang's right-hand man. She is highly trusted and has always had a say in the affairs of the village.

A few months ago, Qin Hongmian and Mu Wanqing were hunted down by people until they reached Dali. If the Crocodile God of the South China Sea had not rescued Mu Wanqing for Duan Yu, her head would have been lifted back to life by this woman.

At this time, more and more people came out, saluted Gu Chaoci and Wang Yuyan, and said loudly: "According to the secret report of our village's spies, although the heroes in the world are doubtful about this news, they think that as long as they can get to the village, they will be able to do something about it.

To share these benefits, people from all over the world continue to gather here.

Whether they are from a well-known and decent family or someone from a green forest, many people have gathered inside and outside Suzhou City.

It's just that they were intimidated by the great reputation of my uncle and young lady, and were afraid that you were also in the village, so they didn't move, as if they wanted to see who was willing to be the first!

But there are rumors that my uncle was seriously injured and will never recover without three months of rest, so they are a little ready to make a move now!"

Wang Yuyan saw her mother frowning and worried, so she smiled and said: "Mom, please relax, what can some clowns do when Gu Lang is here?"

Mrs. Wang looked at the smart and beautiful daughter in front of her, knowing that she was trying to comfort her, and said with a smile: "You talk like a child, but you are still full of childishness."

This time, I laughed from the bottom of my heart, and the original unhappiness and irritability were gone.

Mrs. Wang is not so much a figure in the martial arts world as she is a wealthy businessman. Her property is spread all over the place, and her money can bring magic, so many government agencies are open to her. Therefore, her family is indeed

The wealth was abundant and the treasures were accumulated. In the original trajectory, Murong Fu had always been interested in her treasures.

Those so-called martial arts secrets are just ordinary martial arts. The only one that is truly advanced is the "Little Wuxiang Kung" left by my mother, which has now been stolen.

She didn't care too much about these things in her heart. She was just worried that due to the disaster, "Mantuo Villa" would never have peace, causing her to lose the beautiful memories with Duan Zhengchun.

Apart from Duan Zhengchun, the one she cared about most in her life was her daughter.

Now seeing that she is skilled in martial arts and smart, and with Gu Chaoci protecting her, she will definitely have a trust in her life, and she can take care of her own worries. Naturally, her mind is relaxed, and her joy is beyond words.

When Wang Yuyan saw her mother laughing heartily, she also laughed and said, "It's obvious how stupid the world is.

I also began to spread the word everywhere that Nao Shizi’s ‘Six Meridians Divine Sword’ and ‘Shaolin’s Seventy-two Special Skills’ were all possessed by Xiao Yuanshan!”

After speaking, he stuck out his tongue and made a face at his mother.

Mrs. Wang covered her mouth and smiled and said: "If it were anyone else, this would be a good idea. I think his future would be extremely bright.

But for Xiao Yuanshan, it is meaningless at all. He has always been living in the dark, and he is still like this now. Others can't find him even if they want to look for him."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a loud noise outside the door, and a huge iron-feathered homing pigeon flew in and landed on Granny Rui's shoulder.

Grandma Rui said in surprise: "Madam, it's our spy. A letter has arrived." After saying that, she went to get a roll of paper tied in a bamboo tube on the pigeon's leg.

After reading the letter, Grandma Rui's expression changed and she said: "Madam, this... this..."

Mrs. Wang remained calm and shouted: "Bring it here."

She is a hero among women. She kills without blinking an eye. She has offended many people in the past and has been through many troubles. Now that she has mother, daughter, and son-in-law, three masters here, what else do she have to fear?

After reading the letter, her expression remained unchanged, but her mouth was bitter and astringent, and she said in a deep voice: "Okay, I didn't expect that even the Shaolin Temple and the Beggar Clan came to Jiangnan!"

Then he looked at Gu Chaoci: "Cier, what do you think?"

Gu Chaoci stood up, cupped his hands and said, "Please mother-in-law inform everyone in the village that if these two groups arrive, please treat them with due courtesy.

After all, they are all decent people from well-known families and take their face very seriously.

This is very different from others, and they cannot do things that are contrary to morality.

The Shaolin monks witnessed Murong Bo's "Seventy-two Shaolin Special Skills" with his own eyes. Regardless of whether he was alive or dead, they would definitely come and ransack his home to prevent the secrets of martial arts from being leaked.

As soon as Qiao Feng died, the Beggar Clan's two unique skills were immediately lost. It was only natural that they come to Murong's house to try their luck!

Therefore, they may not necessarily be coming for us.

I just don’t know what the final outcome of the fight between Murong Bo and the Beggar Gang was in Weihui City?"

Mrs. Wang stood up and said: "Murong Bo had a big battle with the Beggar Gang. The entire Yanzi Banner army was wiped out. Murong Bo was rescued by King Dalun Ming. No one knows whether he is alive or dead!".

Then he looked at Granny Rui and said: "Do as my uncle said, as long as Shaolin and the Beggar Gang don't come to target us, they will demolish Yanziwu!"

Grandma Rui made a promise and took the order to exit.

Mrs. Wang smiled solemnly and said: "However, the most urgent task is that the leader of the Xingxiu Sect, 'Zhaixingzi', and the leader of the Green Forest Road in the five northern provinces, 'Carrying the Cauldron Divine Ape' Lei Dingxiu, have already crossed the waterway.

, Chao Zhuangzi is coming, he must be arriving soon."

Li Qiushui, who had been maintaining an elegant posture and sipping the fragrant tea, suddenly stood up and said in a cold voice: "Xingxiu Sect? Ding Chunqiu's disciples and grandsons? Humph, you're well here. Don't even think about leaving today!" With that, he walked out the door.

.

Gu Chaoci showed off his skills, stopped her, and said: "Leave these people to me, and you stay in the village. On the one hand, if someone takes advantage of the situation, everyone can rest assured that you are here.

On the other hand, no one knows about you. This is a secret move. I will dispatch the enemies of the public. If someone sneaks in secretly but fails to get out, this can also give those who are watching a sense of mystery and fear!"

Mrs. Wang also said: "Yes, mother, as long as Yan'er and the others are here, I will be fine. You can just sit around in the village!"

Li Qiushui thought for a moment that his so-called vow to kill all the disciples of the Xiaoyao Sect had been broken by Gu Chaoci and Wang Yuyan. It would be meaningless to continue to kill Ding Chunqiu's disciples, so he nodded immediately.

Just when Mrs. Wang, Gu Chaoci, and Wang Yuyan came out together, Wang Yuyan suddenly said: "Gu Lang, I think it would be better if you change your appearance. Didn't the world say that your injury won't heal in three months?"

Then hide in the dark first and don't take action. If there is any expert who really thinks you have been seriously injured and may not be able to hold on anymore, then if you take action, other than him, you can both eliminate trouble and serve as a deterrent.

!”

Gu Chaoci was startled and said, "You mean Jiumozhi?"

Wang Yuyan nodded slightly and said: "How did he know the Xiaowuxiang Kung Fu? It must have been Murong Bo who saved him last time and then came to my house, Langhuan Jade Cave, to steal the secret book.

He will not be reconciled to being defeated by you again, and may not let this opportunity pass him by!

His martial arts skills are so high that he is not afraid of anyone in the world. I can't defeat him, but he is very afraid of you.

If you show up safe and sound, and he can't hide, it will cause a headache!

After all, in the current situation, it is not difficult for the few of us to leave secretly, but if we want to leave with the martial arts secrets of my "Langhuan Jade Cave", we will not be able to hide it from other people's eyes and ears. It will also lose the meaning of leaving here.

Even if we want to leave, we have to be in the limelight anyway. For people like Jiumozhi, the guards at Manto Villa are useless, so we might as well take the opportunity to hang him out once and for all!"

Gu Chaoci thought for a while: "That's true! Xiao Yuanshan is recovering from his injuries. Even though Murong Bo is dead, Jiumozhi is still alive. This guy loves martial arts and is crazy about it. He also knows that the Wang family does have martial arts secrets. Maybe he really knows how to do it.

Come!".

So he changed into a servant's attire, and Wang Yuyan applied some potion on his face and glued some beard on him, so that he didn't look like the "Blood Evil Lord" at all.

Mantuo Villa was full of maids and maids, and there were no men. Wang Yuyan simply asked a few maids to change into male servant uniforms, which made him look less conspicuous. Fang followed Mrs. Wang, Wang Yuyan and other people in the village and left the village.

In an open space not far from the village, dozens of people were surrounding a pile of flames. The flames were about five feet high, pure green in color, and full of ghostly aura, which was very different from ordinary flames.

Everyone stared at the flames in silence, pressing their left palms on their chests and muttering something unknown.

These people were all dressed in Mage cloth shirts, with solemn expressions, and two of them were carrying flagpoles. Under the green firelight, they looked even more strange.

When Mrs. Wang saw this, she was so angry that she set fire in front of her Mantuo Villa. She didn't take her seriously at all! She cursed in her heart: "Ding Chunqiu, this old bastard, what the hell are you getting?"

Son!"

However, she gradually calmed down despite her anger. She also knew that Ding Chunqiu knew that his disciples were all those who deceived their masters and destroyed their ancestors. Their character was extremely poor, and they had never revealed their relationship to their disciples.

Even her own martial arts secrets are stored with her.

Suddenly, several soft flute sounds "woo woo woo" were heard coming from the west. Everyone turned around and bowed to the place where the flute sound came from.

Everyone looked towards where the sound of the flute came from, and saw a man in linen floating over. With quick feet, he walked to the flames in a moment, put one end of a two-foot-long jade flute to his mouth, and blew into the flames.

Blowing, the flame suddenly extinguished, and then with a puffing sound, it soared into the air, rising to a height of about ten feet, and then slowly descended.

Everyone shouted: "The master's magic power is amazing, it is an eye-opener for us."

The first two people shook the flagpole they were carrying, and the two big flags flew fiercely and looked powerful. One side said "Holding the stars to pick up the sun and the moon", and the other side said "This immortal should only exist in the sky."

Gu Chaoci mingled among the people and looked to get out. This was Ding Chunqiu's "private band". He had seen many people sent by Xingxiu. He thought to himself: "Ding Chunqiu should be dead, and his great disciple Zhaixingzi"

The position of leader has been restored! Now that Ding Chunqiu is no longer suppressed, he will start to tremble and learn from his example!"

When Mrs. Wang looked at the "head", she turned out to be a young man in his mid-twenties, tall and thin, with a greenish-yellow complexion, but a handsome face.

However, after seeing his floating Qinggong and fire-blowing skills, I knew that his internal strength was not weak, but blowing out the green fire like this made it light up again, but it was not internal strength. I guessed that there was something hidden in the flute to ignite the fire.

Specific drug powder.

This person suddenly looked at Mrs. Wang, Wang Yuyan and others, his eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "But has Mrs. Wang, the owner of Mantuo Villa, arrived?"

Mrs. Wang sneered and said, "Your Excellency is very bright in his moves."

The man laughed sinisterly and said: "I pick up stars and pick up the sun and moon with my hands. If I don't even have this ability, wouldn't it be a joke?"

Mrs. Wang rolled her pretty eyes, her eyes shone with cold light, and she said coldly: "Who are you, and you are worthy of pretending to be a ghost in front of me?"

Star Picker smiled strangely and said: "Sure enough, beauties have bad tempers. You and your daughter stand together like sisters. I don't know if this 'Blood Demon King' is going after you or if he really has a crush on your daughter. This

Do you have to be careful?"

He used his inner strength to make a sound, which made everyone's ears buzz, intending to show off his inner strength and overwhelm everyone.

If it were anyone else, everyone in the Xingxiu Sect would definitely have to flatter the leader.

But most of them have seen Gu Chaoci's methods and are not that courageous.

If it weren't for the rumors that Gu Chaoci was seriously injured and wouldn't be able to recover for three months, and the new head of the family was ruthless, they wouldn't have ventured into this muddy water.

They had already thought about it. If the "Blood Fiend Demon Lord" was not here, they would follow the leader to make some money. If everyone was safe and sound, they would just take advantage of the situation immediately.

As for now, let's just let this leader, who doesn't know the heights and heights of the world, be so energetic.

After hearing what Zhai Xingzi said, Mrs. Wang suddenly thought of how Gu Chaoci stared at her for the first time when he met her. She suddenly became angry and said angrily: "You dog's mouth can't spit out ivory, so you should give it to me today."

Make flower fertilizer!”

Zhaixingzi played his flute, clasped his arms and said, "Okay, Mrs. Wang, you are so beautiful, you don't want to be separated from your daughter and son-in-law early, right?

We brothers are strangers to you, and the Blood Fiend Lord is even more difficult to mess with. We risk the disapproval of the world to do such things, and you know why!"

Suddenly Wang Yuyan left her maid, and Shi Shiran came out and said coldly: "You have good ideas, but my hands refuse to do it. What do you think we should do?"

When some people from the Xingxiu Sect saw Wang Yuyan, they immediately changed their expressions as if they were seeing a ghost. Cold sweat ran down their heads. People who didn't know the inside story were very surprised. They couldn't imagine that a fairy-like figure could make them horrified.

die.

At this time, someone swallowed his saliva and said in a trembling voice to Zhaixingzi: "Master, these eight achievements are the Fairy Lingbo. The Blood Fiend Lord used her as a treasure. He once fed her with water and food, and killed Nan Murong in anger.

, we have seen this with our own eyes!

He must be here, let’s go!”

Zhai Xingzi's face suddenly changed color, but he soon calmed down. He smiled and said: "This is even better. With this girl, even if the blood evil demon king is healed, he still has to bow to me. What are you afraid of?"

The man added: "There are rumors in the world that Fairy Lingbo has great martial arts skills, and she is evenly matched with Master...well, Old Monster Xingxiu..."

Zhaixingzi waved his hand and said: "How can we believe the rumors in the world? According to what you said, this woman was a dying person with no power to restrain a chicken a few months ago. How can she suddenly change in a few months?"

Become a martial arts master?

Haha, being evenly matched with Ding Chunqiu, isn't this the most ridiculous thing in the world? In my opinion, if it weren't for those wastes, there would be no help for the Blood Fiend Demon King, who deliberately put gold on his face and created a "Lingbo Fairy"

as his helper.

Or Fairy Lingbo is someone else! Are you right? Little lady?"

Zhaixingzi was the number one master of the Xingxiu Sect to eliminate Ding Chunqiu. A few months ago, Ding Chunqiu came to the Central Plains, but he did not come and stayed in the Xingxiu Sea.

As a result, junior sister Azi stole the "Sacred Wood King Cauldron" treasure of "Old Monster Xingxiu" and ran away. She was so frightened that the three souls and seven souls of the Star Picker ran away halfway, and they hurriedly chased after them. All the way to the Central Plains, they heard that Ding Chunqiu was killed by the "Blood Evil"

"The Demon King" was captured, and I don't know whether he is alive or dead.

Later, he met up with other juniors and learned all the ins and outs. He learned that Ding Chunqiu, his second junior brother Mo Yunzi, and his seventh junior brother Chuchenzi had disappeared together. He didn't know whether Ding Chunqiu was dead or not, so he didn't dare to act rashly. So while searching for Ah Zi,

Ask for news about Master.

As a result, some time ago, they heard that their master had died in Weihui City, and they happened to be not far away. They rushed there and even saw the body.

Zhaixingzi immediately felt that the mountain above his head was no longer there, so he naturally became the leader of the Xingxiu Sect.

There was a lot of rumors about the possession of martial arts classics in Mantuo Villa, so he wanted to draw chestnuts from the fire.

Firstly, Gu Chaoci was seriously injured and could not recover for three months. This was said by the "Arhat Who Subdued the Dragon" himself, which is very credible. Secondly, he thought that with his high martial arts skills, wouldn't it be easy to deal with a womanly woman like Mrs. Wang?

As for the various people coming, everyone else is waiting and watching, wanting to see what happens if they strike first.

He was afraid that he would be late and miss something good, so he rushed over in a hurry. After all, he knew better than anyone the principle of "finding wealth in danger".

Wang Yuyan listened to Zhai Xingzi's teasing words, instead of getting angry she smiled and said: "Anyone can be called Fairy Lingbo! I'm just me, but I don't want you, an ignorant person, to be a fool."

No problem at all! Do you believe this?"

Zhaixingzi's face seemed to be covered by a dark cloud, and he snorted coldly: "My dear lady, your tone is quite serious!" As he said this, he moved his feet forward and ran over a distance of two feet. He held the flute in his hand and stabbed Wang Yuyan straight into his heart.

Wang Yuyan put her hands behind her back and ignored her.

The Star Picking move was originally a false move, designed to lure the enemy into taking action, to see what was real and false, and then targeted the gap and then suddenly struck the killer, using the tip of the flute to vibrate and cover the three large acupoints on her chest.

But seeing that she underestimated him so much, anger arose in her heart, and she punched her right arm, turning it into reality. The tip of the flute stabbed Wang Yuyan's chest "Yutang point" like a thunder blow.

"Miss--"

Amidst the exclamations of the girls, Wang Yuyan suddenly reached out with two fingers and clamped the tip of the flute. The flute in Zhaixingzi's hand was as if it was embedded in an iron pillar. It stopped firmly and could not advance any further.

Zhaixingzi was horrified to death. He had devoted more than ten years of hard work on this flute, and used it to intimidate all his juniors and become the senior brother of the Xingxiu Sect. However, he did not expect to be restrained by one move today.

Just as he was about to change his move, Wang Yuyan flicked her middle finger, and heard a "ding-dong" sound and a flash of green light.

Zhaixingzi suddenly felt a strong force coming from him. His arm was sore that it almost broke. The flute flew out of his hand. His chest felt like a huge stone was pressing on him, and he couldn't help but take three steps back.

Before she could react, Wang Yuyan waved her sleeves.
