I'm writing novels in Liaozhai

Of course, Gu Ming did this not to make more money, but mainly for experience.

As for the next book, I have already started writing it before, and it is the planned "Jin Ping Mei".

After the publication of these two books, Gu Ming's position in the court altar has been unshakable, and he is well-deserved as the number one person in the altar.

Even those old pedants had to start to face the reality, and there were even many people who became fans and began to study the books written by Gu Ming.

For example, Dream of Red Mansions, some good people in the capital set up a book fan club for this book. After some discussion, this book fan club was finally named "Red Society".

Under the influence of Gu Ming, many people began to imitate his style and write vernacular books.

Moreover, the punctuation advocated by him has gradually become popular

In a blink of an eye, another month passed.

In a hidden cave, Gu Ming sat cross-legged, his eyes were slightly closed, and he smiled in surprise and relief.

Because, he upgraded again:

Host: Gu Ming

Location: Liaozhai World

Level: Jinshi Next level: Champion

XP: 103050000

Points: 30

Skills: Export as a chapter 5

Skills: Brilliant Pen Blossom Level 5

Skills: Perception Level 3

Skill: Magical Brush Level 3

Skills: Calligraphy Level 6, Painting Level 6, Chess Level 5, Temperament Level 5

This time, since two mainline tasks were submitted at the same time, the rewarded props are not bad, otherwise, the points for upgrading skills alone would be a big problem.

With the improvement of the skill level, the points required to upgrade the skills have also increased significantly, and one upgrade can easily cost hundreds of points.

Although the system rewarded three cards, Gu Ming still spent more than 1000 points accumulated so hard to upgrade several main skills to a level.

At present, only chess skills and temperament have not been upgraded. Upgrading the two together requires 1200 points, but Gu Ming still has 30 points left, and he is so poor.

However, this is unimportant, what is important is that the improvement brought to Gu Ming by this upgrade is unprecedented.

Before the upgrade, Gu Ming had a premonition, so he deliberately took a leave of absence, brought Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing to the mountain, and asked them to protect the dharma nearby, while he stayed in the cave to upgrade.

As expected, this upgrade took three days.

In three days, break out of the cocoon and turn into a butterfly!

Before leveling up, Gu Ming always thought it was a transformation, but only now did he realize that he was actually weaving a cocoon before.

This time, it was really a transformation.

Although I haven't tested it in actual combat, my body is naturally clearer than anyone else's heart.

The most obvious is the out of body.

In the past, when the soul was out of the body, it could only be out of the body, with almost no combat effectiveness, and could not fly too far or too high.

But this time Gu Ming tried for the first time the feeling of soaring to the sky.

This place is about a hundred miles away from the capital, but with just one thought, his soul has already reached the sky above the capital.

At present, the limit distance of the out-of-body experience should be more than three hundred miles.

Although it is still far away from Instantaneous Thousands of Miles, Instantaneous Thousands of Miles already belongs to the legend of the human world, something that only land gods can do.

To be able to go out of the body for more than three hundred miles is already quite a remarkable thing, enough to be among the great masters of today.

In addition to being out of his body, Gu Ming also realized another element of heaven and earth: fire!

In other words, he can now control water, fire, and wind at the same time.In this way, when facing the enemy, there are more ways to defeat the enemy.

All in all, this time is an improvement in all aspects.

"Congratulations, Mr. Gu, for leaving the customs!"

As soon as Gu Ming walked out of the cave, Bai Suzhen, who had been guarding outside all the time, came forward in surprise.

Because she could sense that Gu Ming had undergone considerable changes from the inside out.

Although it is difficult to confirm what level Gu Ming's strength has reached, but judging from his momentum, he may be able to compete with Snake Princess. This kind of cultivation progress is surprising.

"Hehe, it's only three days, so there's no way to talk about getting out of customs."

Xiaoqing turned around Gu Ming curiously, and murmured, "Why didn't I feel much change?"

Gu Ming smiled: "Because your cultivation system is different from mine, it is difficult for you to see my realm."

"Sister, can you see it?"

Xiaoqing couldn't help but glanced at Bai Suzhen and asked.

Bai Suzhen shook her head, then nodded again: "If you meet for the first time, you may not be able to tell. But now, you can roughly feel it."

"Then can my sister and I practice the mental method that Mr. Gu practiced?"

"Maybe someday, but not yet"

Xiaoqing asked like a curious baby: "Why?"

"Because I haven't realized the specific method of performing exercises yet, so I can't teach you.

However, if you really want to learn, you can read more books if you have nothing to do. "

Xiaoqing was stunned: "Reading? Forget it, I get a headache when I read a book, so I might as well go and fight a few times."

Gu Ming: ""

Bai Suzhen: ""

After returning, Gu Ming did not retreat to consolidate his realm like other masters, and started to work that day, doing what he should do.

This is also one of the benefits of his cultivation.

For other cultivators to reach his current state, at least they would have to retreat for several months before they can leave.

This time writing Jin Ping Mei, Gu Ming did not divide it into several publications like writing A Dream of Red Mansions. In the plan, it will be divided into three volumes, which will be delivered for printing after they are finished.

In the previous life, this book had a rough fate and was banned several times.

However, with Gu Ming's current identity, status, and reputation, let alone removing some explicit details on purpose, even if he copied the original one, he would not be banned.

To put it bluntly, as long as he doesn't intentionally write something that involves anti-imperialism, it is impossible for him to be banned.

Early this morning, Gu Ming was preparing to go to Dali Temple, but before he reached the door, a subordinate rushed over. "Report to my lord, something serious happened"

"A big deal? How big a deal?"

Gu Ming frowned.

The subordinate subconsciously looked around and said in a low voice: "General Feng's mansion has been destroyed."

"What? General Feng's Mansion? Where did the news come from?"

Gu Ming couldn't believe it.

General Feng, whose name is Feng Tiancheng, was one of the famous generals of the dynasty.

He used to be responsible for guarding southern Xinjiang, but after Ni Chenggui's accident, he was ordered to be transferred to the western border as the coach.

For a border general like him, his family has always been the focus of the court's protection.

Moreover, with Feng Tiancheng's status, who would dare to provoke him easily?Not to mention the insane act of exterminating the family.

Once it is confirmed who is the murderer or the mastermind, it will definitely be the fate of Zhu Jiu Clan.

"Responding to my lord's words, the news is absolutely true. Now the capital is in chaos, and the Ministry of Punishment has taken over."

Before the subordinates could speak, a eunuch from the palace also brought someone over quickly.

"It turned out to be Mr. Pang"

"Slaves see Mr. Gu!"

"Eunuch, don't be too polite. Eunuch came in a hurry. Is there something urgent?"

Eunuch Pang nodded silently.

Then his face turned serious and he said: "Lord Gu, the emperor ordered Dali Temple and the Ministry of Criminal Justice to cooperate in the case of destroying the family of General Feng's mansion, and find out the culprit as soon as possible!"

"According to the order!"

Gu Ming clapped his hands in response.

"Master Gu, the emperor specifically asked Mr. Gu to spend more time. After all, General Feng is the commander-in-chief of the western border. It is best to crack this case before General Feng returns to Beijing, so that General Feng can give an explanation."

"Understood, thank you for your hard work, Eunuch Pang."

"No, no, this servant is just passing on a message, Master Gu is the one who has worked hard. Alright, Master Gu, I won't bother you to handle the case, and this servant will return to the palace to return."

"Yeah!" Gu Ming nodded, and then told his subordinates: "Well, I will go to General Feng's mansion first, and you will go back to Dali Temple to mobilize people and then come."

"Follow the order!"

The subordinates had to leave.

Along the way, Gu Ming met several groups of officers and soldiers who searched the whole city, and he didn't know how many unlucky rogues would be caught in this big arrest.

The surrounding area of ​​General Feng's mansion is also heavily guarded, and ordinary people are not allowed to approach.

When Gu Ming came to the gate, two officials from the Criminal Department were already waiting at the gate, presumably someone had notified him in advance.

"See Mr. Gu!"

The two stepped forward to salute together.

"My lords, you don't need to be too polite, Mr. Lu, what's the situation inside?"

"My lord, talk while walking"

"Ok!"

"Lord Gu, after a preliminary survey, there are currently only ten survivors in the entire General Feng's mansion, and a total of 83 dead, most of whom are servants of the mansion.

General Feng's original wife, second wife, and children under his name are all dead

The only surviving family members are General Feng’s mother, General Feng’s third wife and her two-year-old son, and the daughter born to the second wife.”

Gu Ming frowned and asked, "You mean, only four members of General Feng's family survived?"

"Yes, the other six are servants of the mansion."

"Apart from the survivors, have you found any clues about the murderer?"

"After our inquiries and analysis from the scene, there should be three or four murderers, dressed in night clothes, masked, and with extraordinary skills."

After listening to Lu Shilang's introduction of the basic situation, Gu Ming couldn't help but sighed: "Okay, let me show you the scene first."

"Yes, Mr. Gu please!"

Afterwards, Gu Ming started from the front yard and inspected room by room carefully.

It can be seen that the murderer had carefully planned, except for a few guards who were in charge of watching the night, all the other dead died in the room without exception.

In other words, almost all of them were killed in their sleep.

The cause of death was a knife sealing the throat, which shows that the murderer is not an ordinary person, but a master of the knife, and the strike can be said to be fast, accurate and ruthless.

The opponent's goal should be to destroy the whole family, but fortunately, during the murder process, perhaps a certain murderer was careless and failed to kill a guard with a single knife.

The guard yelled a few times before he died. The murderer might have been afraid of being exposed, so he had to retreat early, which allowed the third wife and more than a dozen people to survive.

Chapter 278 The General's Wife's Secret...

Not long after, a group of people from Dali Temple also hurried over.

"My lord, is there any clue?"

As soon as the people arrived, the leader of the team hurried up to Gu Ming and gave a salute, then asked in a low voice.
