Reborn Enemy

The young man was dressed in plain clothes, leaning on the most ordinary chair, but seemed to be leaning on the most gorgeous embroidered reclining chair. The white hairband slanted across his face, and there was an indescribable strangeness in his elegant and bookish atmosphere. .

Gu Pinglin was already prepared to be ridiculed, and his face did not change when he heard the words: "It is inevitable to worry about the past."

"Are you concerned?" Duan Qingming obviously guessed the answer a long time ago. There was no accident, but he narrowed his eyes slightly. At first glance, he seemed to be smiling, "Is this your knot?" Without waiting for Gu Pinglin to answer, he denied it himself After answering this question, "No, otherwise you can continue your relationship with her, instead of letting me push her to Bu Shuihan."

Gu Pinglin said: "You admit it, this matter is your design."

"I never denied it," Duan Qingming said, "women, you shouldn't be a reason for your distraction."

Gu Pinglin withdrew his smile: "You've crossed the line again."

"I'm just reminding you."

"Concentrate on your opponent, I have never forgotten what you said," Gu Pinglin said, "I also hope that you will not forget our previous agreement."

Duan Qingming looked at him for a long time and smiled: "Of course I remember."

The atmosphere relaxed again, Gu Pinglin said: "That would be the best."

Duan Qingming suddenly said again: "But I'm a little strange, in the past, who are you afraid of?"

In the end it was discovered by him.Gu Pinglin asked calmly: "Compared to this matter, isn't your demon of Duan Qingming more curious?"

Sure enough, Duan Qingming stopped asking: "Then change the subject, what's the matter with you imitating my move 'Eagle Strikes the Moon Shadow'?"

"No," Gu Pinglin took the scroll on the table into his hand, "That's not imitation."

"Oh?"

"is directed at."

"You admitted that you have been targeting me."

"I've never denied it." Gu Pinglin imitated his tone, flipped through the scroll and read it.

Duan Qingming laughed: "You don't even let the books go?"

"Know yourself and know the enemy, and you won't be in danger in a hundred battles."

"What a confession."

Gu Pinglin roughly flipped through the book, closed it again, and threw it back on the table: "Your last trick can be called 'Phoenix Shadow Resting on the Wu'."

"Very good," Duan Qingming agreed, "What's your trick called?"

"Eagle flies at moonset."

"Oh, the naming is also aimed at me."

Gu Pinglin ignored his teasing: "How is this trick 'Moonfall Eagle Fly' compared to your 'Eagle Strike Moon Shadow'?"

"reluctantly."

"Ah."

"Aren't you satisfied?"

Gu Pinglin turned his back and hid his expression: "Today is fifteen, the moonlight must be good, why don't you and I compete at night?"

Everyone rested in the post for two days, and then started again when it was about the same time. The road really took a lot of detours. Fortunately, he was not in a hurry. After walking and stopping for more than two months, everyone entered Liuxiang Flower Market.

There are several big markets in Xiujie, Haishi is one, and Liuxiang Flower Market is also one.Yan Sen didn't want to change his appearance, so in order to avoid trouble, he temporarily separated from the crowd and acted alone.The four of Gu Pinglin had just passed the tall archway, and before they had time to find the inn, they were stopped by two enthusiastic disciples of the Wan family.

A disciple of the Wan family smiled and said: "Master Nineteen knows that some distinguished guests are passing by, so he specially asked us to wait here. The inn has already been arranged. Please don't refuse. Master Nineteen will come over in person later."

The Liuxiang flower market is very close to the Huajian Wan family. The Wan family is already rich and has many industries in the flower market. It is not surprising that they can get news.Gu Pinglin guessed the reason, did not refuse, and followed two disciples into Wangxian Tower.

Wangxianlou is one of the most famous inns in the flower market, and it is also the property of the Wan family. Everyone lives in the most expensive small pavilion in the cloud. Standing in front of the window, you can see the whole flower market. The boundary and the defense array are not much worse than the space magic weapon.

Xin Ji was feeling emotional when a gaudy figure ran in from outside and almost bumped into him: "Where is the benefactor? Gu benefactor!"

Gu Pinglin turned around: "Young Master Wan."

The person who came was Wan Lai, the well-known "prodigal son" in the Xiu world. He was thrown by Wan Sanhe in the sea bone pit that day. Fortunately, Gu Pinglin saved his life. He heard the news that Gu Pinglin would pass by the day before yesterday, and he has been there all the time. Haishi and others met at this time, Natou bowed: "Senpai, accept me as an apprentice!"

Compared to when he was in the sea bone pit that day, his chubby face is now much thinner, the gold collar around his neck is still there, but the folding fan in his hand is gone.Gu Pinglin roughly guessed the reason, and it was a bit funny when he was surprised.

Xin Ji asked: "Master Wan wants to join the Lingxin School? Did he make a mistake?" In terms of fame, the Wan family is a first-class family, much more famous than the Lingxin School.

Wan Lai immediately raised his face and shook his head again and again: "That's right, that's right, I just want to join the Spiritual Mind School, please accept me from my benefactor."

Gu Pinglin shook his head: "You are not suitable."

Wan Lai became anxious on the spot and jumped up from the ground: "Why am I not suitable?"

"The Spiritual School uses swords," Cheng Yi suddenly approached him, sniffling, "You don't smell like swords!"

"Let it go..." Wan Lai swallowed the last word in time, put on a dandy posture, put his hands on his hips, "It's just a sword, I can't learn it?"

Cheng Yi blinked, reached out to pat him on the shoulder, and said solemnly: "Good sword learning." Then she stepped aside.

Wan Lai was baffled, so he endured it and continued to pester Gu Pinglin: "Benefactor, just accept me!"

Gu Pinglin refused mercilessly: "No."

Duan Qingming suddenly said: "Mr. Wan's heart is in the way of swordsmanship. It would be unreasonable for the younger brother to refuse without even asking."

This person is going to make trouble again.Gu Pinglin immediately squinted his eyes and looked at him.

Wan Lai was ignorant, and had the ability to perceive words and feelings. Seeing Duan Qingming's friendly appearance, he wanted to talk better, so he immediately climbed up the pole and promised diligently: "Master has good eyesight, I am sincere, and the world can learn from it!"

Duan Qingming asked: "Why does Young Master Wan want to join the Lingxin School?"

Wan Lai cleared his throat when he heard the words, and said: "The benefactor saved me that day. I saw the benefactor's extraordinary skills, and I couldn't help but yearn for it, so I wanted to learn the way of swords." , while coordinatingly making a yearning expression, which is very skillful.

"Well, the reason is good," Duan Qingming said, "The way of swordsmanship is always the top priority in cultivating the world, just like the senior Wan Sanhe of your sect, who was also defeated by the senior Feijian Palace King of the same realm."

"Exactly!" Wan Lai scolded energetically as if he had found a bosom friend, "That old bastard, I didn't realize how nasty he is! That day he refused to save him, and my master didn't bother with him, but when he came back, he said that I was dragging him down. You bastard, you can slip faster than anyone else! The elders of the Bisheng family are all coaxed by him, even my father doesn't believe me!"

He was only wronged, but Gu Pinglin understood.

How could Patriarch Wan not believe in his son?Just helpless.Wansanhe is the inner alchemy major repair. Between losing a inner alchemy major and a dude, the elders of the Wan family unanimously chose Wansanhe. This is the case in the world repairing family. The status of the strong is difficult to shake even the head of the family.

Duan Qingming said: "Speaking of which, this person is very hateful, if Mr. Wan masters swordsmanship, he won't have to suffer this kind of anger."

Wan Lai waved his sleeves: "Young master learns swords because he wants to piss that bastard to death!"

Xin Ji almost burst out laughing on the spot.This kid has no schemes at all, and he can get everything out of him in a few words. The reason why he found the Lingxin School is probably because Gu Pinglin saved him.

Wan Lai was excited for a while, then came back to his senses, and asked cautiously: "Can you accept me?"

Duan Qingming hesitated for a while, and sighed: "Your aptitude is ordinary, even if you change to the way of swordsmanship, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to achieve great success."

The tone was full of regret, but the words were malicious, Gu Pinglin frowned upon hearing the words.Such judgments are tantamount to knocking people down from the clouds. Ordinary people will definitely be depressed for a long time when they hear it, and it is hard to say that they will never recover from it.

As expected, Wan Lai froze on the spot.

His appearance obviously pleased the questioner, Duan Qingming raised his eyebrows slightly, and slowly sipped his dew tea, as if he had nothing to do with himself.

Gu Pinglin was fine.For Wan Lai, if he still has a bit of temperament, he will be able to save himself if he wakes up from now on, and if he gives up because of this, it's nothing, after all, idleness is his normal state.

Everyone was waiting for Wan Lai's reaction.Cheng Yi is the simplest, he thinks what Duan Qingming says is right, and he is full of sympathy for Wan Lai at the moment; Xin Ji is not a kind person at all, he only hopes that others' paths will not go well, so he pats his beard to watch the show.

Unexpectedly, Wan Lai was not as frustrated as everyone expected, he stayed for a while and asked, "Can it compare to Wan Sanhe?"

"It's hard to say," Duan Qingming commented truthfully, "I'm not sure, but you are younger than him, you have more time and opportunities, and there are more possibilities in the future."

Wan Lai clapped his hands together: "Hey, that's all right! It's so good to be an old bastard, so it's about the same as a piece of trash like me."

He didn't see anyone scolding him to bring him along, so Xin Ji was amused by him: "Young Master Wan is too modest."

Duan Qingming smiled and said: "But if you join the Lingxin Sect, you will be separated from the Wan family. Wan Sanhe is always backed by the tree of the Wan family. It will not be so easy for you to deal with him in the future."

"To deal with him?" Wan Lai was stunned for a moment, his face puzzled, "Why should I deal with him?"

"Oh? So you didn't want to deal with him," Duan Qingming really became interested, "Don't you want revenge?"

"Of course I thought about it!" Wan Lai said without hesitation, "So I want to learn swordsmanship and let him know that I am just like him, so he is an old trash? Hahaha..."

Xin Ji opened his mouth wide: "Are you taking revenge like this?"

"Ah? What else can I do?" Wan Lai was stunned for a moment, as if he had realized it, and said with a sad face, "Like what he did to me? But the sea bone pit is gone, even if there is, he will definitely not go down again, hehe He didn’t kill me, and he treats me well in the past.” Probably thinking of the gentle and kind uncle in the past, Wan Lai lost his mind for a while, and said sullenly: “He obviously looks down on me, but he treats me deliberately. It's because of my father..." When he mentioned the past, he was disconcerted, which shows that the blow he suffered was not small.

This kid is not too confused.Xin Ji fanned the flames: "He called you trash, you don't want to kill him?"

"I don't want to," Wan Lai looked at him suspiciously, "Why should I kill him? He's not wrong, I want to beat him up, but you've also heard that my aptitude is not good enough, I probably won't be able to beat him in this life of."

Xin Ji's old face twitched.

Gu Pinglin also found it funny, but at the same time he was a little surprised. He thought Wan Lai was angry and wanted revenge on Wan Sanhe, but he guessed half of it. He was abandoned by Wan Sanhe before, and now he was abandoned by the clan. They didn't even intend to kill, and the Lingxin faction didn't want to win, but to seek "peace". At worst, it's rough-hearted, but at best, it's a unique open-mindedness.Gu Pinglin originally didn't want to accept him, but now he changed his mind: "It's not impossible for you to join the Lingxin School."

Wan Lai was overjoyed: "Really? Are you willing to accept me?"

"But there are conditions," Gu Pinglin stopped him when he saw that he was about to kowtow, "Being admitted to the Lingxin Sect means that you have no relationship with Wan Shi. Can you do it?"

Wan Lai patted his chest proudly: "Master, don't worry, I have saved money a long time ago, just save money!" His first thought was actually money.

Gu Pinglin shook his head: "No, you have to follow the rules and pass the entry test of our faction."

"Huh?" Wan Lai was dumbfounded.

Gu Pinglin said: "If you fail, I can't make an exception."

Wan Lai was discouraged at first, then after thinking about it, he felt that he had a strong foundation and was quite confident, and suddenly became energetic again: "I will naturally go in by my ability so that they will be convinced. Even if the master wants to make an exception, I will definitely not follow. .”

Gu Pinglin nodded, without asking Wan's attitude.

——Wan Lai sent people to block him in the flower market. The Patriarch of the Wan family would not know, but he didn't stop him, and he didn't give him any hints, so he agreed.Wan Lai is already incompetent, falling out with Wan Sanhe, staying in the clan is not a good thing, joining the Lingxin Sect is a way out, although it is not good to change the way halfway, but Wan Lai's previous path was a mess, what is the point of Taoism?The influence of this point can be ignored. The Lingxin faction is not a big faction, and Wan Sanhe will not be wary, just think that he is hiding.

Duan Qingming has lost interest, got up and said: "Hey, I've been driving for a day, let's rest first."

Gu Pinglin warned in a deep voice: "You'd better really rest."

"I didn't do anything, you are still so worried." Duan Qingming walked up the stairs.

Wan Lai didn't know that he was almost ruined by him casually, but he was still immersed in joy. He wanted to practice immediately, but at the same time he wanted to ask about the entrance competition. In the end, he decided to congratulate his friends first. Gu Pinglin didn't stop him. With the change of status, the attitudes of his cronies and friends will change. His mother's doting made Wan Lai such a simple mind. For him, he must suffer some losses in order to grow up.

After Wan Lai was dismissed, Gu Pinglin returned to his room, took a Great Power Pill to replenish his physical strength, and then began to practice, preparing to reach the fourth level of qi within half a year.These days, Gu Pinglin is more diligent than usual, but the previous smoothness seems to be an illusion. Since the breakthrough, the progress has suddenly become slower. No matter how many weeks the true energy circulates, the dantian has not changed much.

This practice did not stop until the moon was in the middle of the sky. Gu Pinglin just finished his practice. Looking at the moon outside the window, he lost his mind for a while, opened the door and walked out.

The moonlight is cold, and the lights in the small Taoist temple are sparse.There are occasional trails in the front yard to watch the night, and the back garden is even more deserted. The cold wind blows, and the large canopy of the trees shakes, and there is a "rustling" sound of fallen leaves.

This is a small post temple of the Lingxin school, very close to the flower market, and the sound of singing and music can still be heard vaguely.

Gu Pinglin stood on the ridge with his hands behind his back, looking at the osmanthus tree from a distance.

On the night when the sweet-scented osmanthus was fragrant, that person came here, used poison to restrain himself forcibly for the first time, and then destroyed his own Dao veins.

When I woke up the next day, I was already lying on the bed in the guest room.

The pain disappeared, but my heart fell into madness and despair.

Different from what I remembered, the osmanthus tree has thin branches and has not yet grown into the old osmanthus. The flowering season has passed, and there seems to be a hint of cold fragrance in the courtyard.

Gu Pinglin closed his eyes, feeling the familiar despair.

The Dao veins in the previous life were destroyed, but he could still find the "Fenghua Jue" to save himself;

Now that the "Spell of Creation" is in hand, how can I save my path?

Someone is approaching from behind.

"You are here." The cool voice sounded very much like the voice in memory.

Gu Pinglin suddenly turned around and met a pair of familiar eyes.

Nightmare eyes.

Gu Pinglin suffocated for breath, then looked away, and calmly said "um": "Come out for a walk."

Probably knowing that the temptation failed, those eyes narrowed slightly, all the coldness and murderous intent were absorbed, and a spring-like smile appeared again.
