Forced Marriage [Cultivation]

"You are really dull, you wear a sword even in the bath." Gao Mianliu said with a smile.He was leaning on the rock wall, different from the last time he was madly dressed in red, he was dressed in white with black hair, drenched in the water of the pool, he looked a bit cold and dignified.However, that face that is almost the same as that of Gu Baitang always has an evil intention, even if he has black eyes and snow skin, people can still tell the difference between him and Gu Baitang at a glance.

"Why are you here?" Gu Baitang asked coldly, his whole body on guard.

Gao Mianliu asked back, "Don't you know?"

Gu Baitang lowered his brows and did not move.

Gao Mianliu poured himself a glass of wine, smiled and said, "Your head teacher invited me here, you were there at that time."

Of course Gu Baitang knew about it. In fact, he also guessed that Gao Mianliu's appearance here might be Jiang Suxing's intention, and he came here for Li Qingyi who was in the Demon Palace.But for some reason, Gu Baitang always felt that Gao Mianliu's appearance in Xicheng was not simply because of this incident.There is an evil brewing all over this person, which makes people really uncomfortable.

Not wanting to get too involved with this person, Gu Baitang was silent for a moment, then turned and left.

Gao Mian Liu Youyuan's voice sounded behind him, "Hey, why are you leaving?"

Gu Baitang ignored him and left.

After being isolated from the world for 23 days in Avonzhai, on this day, as usual, Gu Baitang went to the Qingxiu Garden of Dharma Hall to pay respects to Qiu Shishui.This time, it was not just for greetings, he had many doubts in his heart, and wanted to find a breakthrough from Qiu Shishui.Firstly, it was Gao Mianliu, but more importantly, it was about Zhou Hui, the venerable demon master.

When I came to Qingxiu Garden, Qiu Shishui was not there.Bodhidharma class is over, where can he go?Gu Baitang came out of Qingxiu Garden, and met a disciple who was hurrying in.The disciple panicked and ran with his head down, not noticing that he knocked down Gu Baitang.

As soon as he raised his head and saw Gu Baitang's face, he immediately stood aside tremblingly and bowed to salute, "Gu, Senior Brother Gu!"

"What are you panicking about? Look up." Gu Baitang said with deep brows.

The disciple straightened up and raised his head, Gu Baitang recognized that this disciple was a new disciple who was recruited by Qiu Shishui a few days ago, he seemed to be called Wu Shengjie.

"Looking back at senior brother, master, he, he suffered from heatstroke, and ordered me to come back and get some heat-relieving tea." Wu Shengjie replied.

Gu Baitang became curious, "Heat stroke?"

Wu Shengjie said: "Yes, Master went to the training ground to watch our training this afternoon, and suddenly said that the weather was too hot and dizzy. I asked him to go back to Qingxiu Garden to rest, but he asked me to come back and make tea for him."

Gu Baitang frowned, this is strange.He nodded at Wu Shengjie, "Then you go, I'll go with you later."

"Eh, yes!"

Wu Shengjie quickly made tea, and Gu Baitang went to the training ground with him.On the way, Gu Baitang inquired with Wu Shengjie, Wu Shengjie said with a smile: "Master will go to the training ground to watch me train every day after class. Junior sister Yan and the others all laughed at me saying that Master spoils me too much."

"You mean Elder Qiu has been going to watch your training every day during this time?" Gu Baitang asked with a frown.This is strange, although he can't remember the past, but when he looked at Qiu Shi's level, he was lonely and aloof, and he didn't seem to care much about his nephew. I go to watch him train every day.Besides, this Wu Shengjie has a mediocre background, why does Qiu Shishui pay attention to him?

Thinking of Qiu Shishui's conversation with the Yan sisters, Gu Baitang thought that Wu Shengjie wasn't the one Qiu Shishui was paying attention to.

While talking, the two came to the training ground, and Gu Baitang opened his eyes wide in surprise.

Under the scorching sun, three figures on the training ground were seeing each other's moves.What is unbelievable is that the elder Qiu Shishui actually ended up fighting with the Yan sisters in person.

"Master, isn't he too hot? Why are you fighting with Junior Sister Yan and the others?" Wu Shengjie was also shocked.

But on the training ground, Qiu Huishui, who has always been cold and repulsive thousands of miles away, actually had a slight smile on his face at this moment.Qiu Shishui is like a fairy alive, usually cold and out of the world.This situation is like melting the ice and snow, ushering in the spring.

Gu Baitang squinted his eyes, unable to understand the scene.Even though he had lost his memory, the current autumn passing water gave him too much sense of disobedience.

The scorching sun in midsummer is really overwhelming.

Wu Shengjie and Gu Baitang stood under the shade of the tree, watching the three of them fight each other, and the cheerful laughter of the Yan sisters could be heard from time to time.

"Elder Qiu, you are lying!"

"That move just now, if you hadn't gone around behind my sister, I would have hit you!"

The three stopped, but the sisters remained steadfast.

Qiu Huishui smiled faintly, his lips were red and his teeth were white, his eyes sparkled: "Okay, okay, I lost, so you guys won, okay?"

"That's about the same!" The two sisters laughed.

Qiu Shaoshui shook his head, and led the two sisters to the shade of the tree.Wu Shengjie quickly poured a cup of tea and offered it, "Master, you drink tea."

Qiu Shishui nodded, but turned around and handed the tea to the Yan sisters, "Are you thirsty too?"

This pampering and gentle Elder Qiu not only made Gu Baitang feel uncomfortable, but also shocked the jaws of the onlookers.Gu Baitang lost his memory and still couldn't accept it, not to mention those disciples who were used to the cold attitude of Qiu Passing Water in the past, all of them had goose bumps all over their bodies, whispering one after another:

"My God, what happened to Elder Qiu? Why did he suddenly change his gender?"

"My mother, look at this posture, we won't have a teacher soon, right?"

"Or two?"

"For so many years, Elder Qiu has always rejected such personnel and affairs, and how many beautiful immortals have refused to send him in front of him. It turns out that he likes this one!"

"My God, my three views are going to be shattered. I thought that Qiu Huishui would stay so single until the day soared. It turns out that he also has seven emotions and six desires? No, I really can't accept it..."

Those noisy discussions became more and more unsightly, Gu Baitang stood up straight and suddenly turned around, his black eyes shone with murderous aura.The disciples onlookers who were 800 meters away were so frightened that they all silenced and didn't dare to say another word.

Gu Baitang turned around, but saw that Qiu Shishui's face was as usual, and he was still talking and laughing at Yanyan with the two sisters.He frowned slightly, feeling very strange in his heart.

Qiu Shishui invited the two sisters to sit in the Qingxiu Garden again, but fortunately, the two sisters would look at people, and looked at Gu Baitang who was at the side submissively.

"Eldest brother, shall we go back to Yan Mingtang to report tonight?" sister Yan Yaoshui asked.

Gu Baitang's brows were tightly furrowed, and he was furious: "What do you think?"

After a moment of silence, Qiu Shishui smiled and said: "Then let's forget about today, you go back."

The two sisters bowed and left, Qiu Shishui said to Wu Shengjie again: "Go to the Siwuyuan to get some new tea and come back. I heard that they received a new batch of camellia yesterday. Remember, you want the latest batch."

"Yes, Master." Wu Shengjie bowed to the two, then turned and ran to the Siwu Yuan.

"Let's go, don't you have something to ask me?" Qiu Shishui turned around and walked forward with a refreshed face.

Gu Baitang didn't speak, and followed Qiu Shishui, the two remained silent all the way.Qiu Shaoshui led the way, and walked to the pavilion in the middle of the clear water lake.There is a person there who can be seen from a distance.A set of tea sets was placed on the stone table in the Huxin Pavilion. The man in white clothes fluttered, with black hair on the floor, was making tea.Seeing Qiu Shishui and Gu Baitang, he waved from afar.

It is Gao Mian Liu.

Gu Baitang looked at Qiu Zhishui, only to see Qiu Huishui's face was as usual, and he walked towards the Huxin Pavilion.

"Oh, it's not easy. My lord, I thought you wouldn't come to see me." Gao Mianliu stood up, folded his hands humbly in front of him, with a seemingly respectful expression, and a strange smile on his face. Meaning, it makes people uncomfortable.

Gu Baitang was secretly surprised by Gao Mianliu's calling Qiu Shishui's son' when he saw Qiu Shishui calmly walked to the stone table and said in a flat voice, "Why didn't I come to see you? I have been too busy for a few days, and Baitang has been retreating with his master, and today he came out, so I will bring him to see you."

As Qiu Shishui said, he turned slightly to the side, and shouted: "Bai Tang, come here, I have seen your cousin."

Gu Baitang was very dazed, but looking at Qiu Shishui's awe-inspiring expression, with a trace of heaviness in his calmness, he walked over and bowed his head to the smiling Gao Mianliu.

"Baitang has seen my cousin."

Gao Mianliu let out a low laugh, and her voice suddenly became deep, "My lord, you are commanding my army. How can I be a cousin of your Qiu clan. I am just a servant, he Calling me uncle, I really can't bear it."

Qiu Pai Shui's voice was faint, as calm as water, but a slight wave could be heard: "It's been so many years, I thought you had let go of the past when you returned to West City this time..."

"Let it go?" Gao Mianliu let out a deep laugh, "My lord, can you let it go?"

There was silence in the pavilion for a while, Gu Baitang kept his head buried and bent over, so he couldn't see the expressions of the two of them at this time, he could only feel a sense of solemnity.

After a while, Qiu Shishui seemed to sigh slightly, and he said softly: "Baitang has nothing to do with this matter, but a junior's respect for you, why do you bother to resist him?"

Gao Mianliu said: "He is from the Qiu family."

Qiu Shishui said: "His surname is Gu, not Qiu. He just came to Xicheng from a young age. Although he was raised by my side, I took little care of him, and he is not close to me. You don't have to contradict him."

It was silent again, only the sound of the wind in the pavilion.After a while, this time it was Gao Mianliu who sighed and said with a smile, "That's all, but if he calls you Seventh Uncle, he can't call me Cousin. I don't want to have anything to do with your Qiu family."

Qiu Shaoshui didn't speak, and the pavilion fell into a stalemate again.

Going on like this is not an option, so Gu Baitang lowered his head and said: "Junior Gu Baitang, I have met Senior Senior."

Gao Mianliu laughed, "He's a witty person, so don't be polite."

Gu Baitang straightened up now, and looked at Qiu Shishui with a sideways look.I thought to myself that this Gaomianliu has such a wicked nature and has such a bad reputation outside. He is known as the 'Prince Fuhua Taoist', so he is not a decent person.Why does Qiu Shaoshui always want to drag him into Qiu's family?Instead of drawing the line?

"Sit down, I made new tea to relieve the heat." Gao Mianliu said.

Qiu Shaoshui was no longer in a stalemate, and the two sat down facing each other.

Gu Baitang took two steps back and stood outside the pavilion to stand guard.The two of them hadn't seen each other for a long time, so they had a lot to say, maybe they could hear a lot of old secrets.He stood in a position where he could hear the two talking.

But they didn't want the two of them to really just drink tea. After drinking a cup of tea, they didn't say a word, and they seemed to be frozen again.

Gu Baitang originally guessed that Gao Mianliu should be the one who broke the silence, but he didn't think it was Qiu Shishui who spoke first.

"You... How long will you stay when you come back this time?" There was hesitation in Qiu Shishui's words, and his attitude was very low. Gu Baitang couldn't help guessing, did Qiu Shishui or the Qiu family really do something to sorry Gao Mianliu?

"Isn't this impossible to leave? The city is banned by water, land and air, not to mention people, even a bird can't get out." Gao Mianliu said, he didn't smile anymore, facing Qiu Passing Water, he seemed to lose that look. The frivolous attitude became cold and arrogant.

Qiu Shishui nodded, and said in a low voice: "Yes, the Pearl of the Blue Sea has been stolen, and it is being investigated strictly now."

The two sat for a while, Gao Mianliu suddenly said: "By the way, I am here this time to find someone."

"Who?" Qiu Shishui asked.

"Li Qingyi." Gao Mianliu said.

"Li Qingyi?" Qiu Shishui thought about the name carefully, and it was a little familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was for a while.

Gao Mianliu said: "It seems to be a prisoner from your place, locked on the seventh floor of the Suomo Palace."

Qiu Shishui said: "Oh, I remembered. This person has committed a serious crime of pretending to be a teacher. What do you want him to do?"

When Gao Mianliu heard this, she laughed happily: "Such a bold person who dares to pretend to be the head teacher of Xicheng? Who is it? Are you upright?"

Qiu Shaoshui shook his head, "Mingzheng has passed away, and the current head teacher in Xicheng is Mingzheng's disciple. This year, he is retreating at the Yunding Sect. By the way, what do you want this person for?"

Gao Mianliu raised her eyebrows, with a secretive expression on her face: "I can't tell you this, but you can ask your nephew, he knows."

Qiu Shishui frowned slightly, looked back at Gu Baitang, then turned his head away again, and said, "Li Qingyi is a death row prisoner, I don't have the right to lift him up for you."

Gao Mianliu said: "I do my own business, so I dare not ask you to help me. I just want to tell you in advance, you just have to pretend you don't know about it."

For Gao Mianliu's superficially respectful but mocking attitude, Qiu Shishui was very uncomfortable, but he just said: "Li Qingyi is a death row prisoner and cannot leave Xicheng."

Gao Mianliu chuckled, "It seems that the young master doesn't know what kind of business I do, haven't you heard of it?" The Taoist priest Fuhua has great powers, just one night, no matter how strong people will worship him at his old man's house Under the red whisk." Li Qingyi will not leave the West City, and the time I want is only one night. "

Qiu Shishui frowned deeply, "You don't need to do this business."

Gao Mianliu smiled and said, "I don't do business, so I have no money to spend? Who will support me?..."

He talked more and more out of bounds. He was drinking tea, but he seemed drunk, talking nonsense.But what they were talking about was romantic things, Gu Baitang didn't hear any old secrets of the past, but the more he listened to it, the more irritable he became.

Qiu Huishui obviously couldn't listen anymore, but still sat there and listened.

"...My lord, have you ever heard of the "dream demon"?It is said that it was an extremely powerful monster in ancient times, who obtained supernatural power by having sex with the god's soul in a dream.Later, a daring incubus demon entered the dreamland of the Southern Suzaku God and was burned to death.It's a pity, that extinct skill has never been handed down...Nowadays, people say that "Hanging the Taoist Master" is the current "demon obscenity" in the cultivation world, and has a good kung fu to overturn the phoenix. Many monks, men and women, all want to have a spring evening with Fuhua Taoist priest in their dreams.Hahaha, how are you doing?Do you want to give it a try..."

Gu Baitang really couldn't listen anymore, but saw that Qiu Shishui was still sitting upright.He turned around and said, "Uncle Qi, I have to go to Yan Mingtang to be on duty at this time, so let's go first."

Qiu Shishui nodded and said softly, "Go."

Gu Baitang returned to Yan Mingtang, puzzled all the way.How did Jiang Suxing know someone like Gao Mianliu?What is the relationship and secret past between Gao Mian Liu, Qiu Shishui, and Qiu's family?Why does Qiu Shaoshui tolerate this person in every possible way?

In Yan Mingtang, Zhuo Xinian and Ge Changshu were the two principals who were rare.The two were looking down at a file, their heads were very close to each other.Gu Baitang deliberately coughed before walking in, and the two immediately raised their heads and separated.

"Brother Gu, you are here, come and see, all the disciples of Jinshui Linggen are listed, there are hundreds of them." Zhuo Xinian said solemnly, Ge Changshu bowed and stood aside to sort out the files went.

Gu Baitang walked over and glanced at the densely packed names on the white paper, next to a pile of Lao Gao's handbooks, all of which recorded the detailed information of the disciples on this list.

"I didn't expect that in the past 500 years in Xicheng, there have been so many disciples of Jinshui mutant Lei Linggen. How can I find them?" Zhuo Xinian said with a sad face, "The Pearl of the Blue Sea has disappeared for two days. Help me to refer to it together. It’s all right now, Brother Gu, you are here, come and have a look together.”

Gu Baitang stared at those names, so densely packed, he couldn't tell.

Zhuo Xinian said: "Tonight, the three of us will study all the detailed information of these nearly 200 people, first select a group of people, and then present them to Master for review tomorrow."

Two hundred copies, that is to say, each of the three of them had to look through sixty or seventy documents. Looking at the thick pile of documents, Gu Baitang couldn't help feeling a little headache.

It was a coincidence that he looked down the list and saw Gao Mianliu's name.

"Gao Mian Liu?" Gu Baitang exclaimed in a low voice, unexpectedly, Gao Mian Liu was also on this list.For some reason, Gu Baitang immediately had an intuition that the person who stole the Blue Sea Pearl must be Gao Mianliu.

"It seems to be a former disciple of Bodhidharma Hall, who left the West City more than 200 years ago." Zhuo Xinian leaned over to take a look. He didn't know Gao Mianliu, and he didn't know if this person returned to the West City recently, it was Qiu Shishui. guest of honor.

"No, he's back." Gu Baitang looked at Zhuo Xinian with a serious expression: "Just a few days ago."
