Reborn Enemy

The door was closed, from the inside.

Gu Pinglin raised his hand and knocked on the door twice.

After a while, Duan Qingming's voice came: "Who?"

Gu Pinglin said: "It's me."

"Please come in."

The door panel trembled slightly, as if it had been hit by something, and then there was the sound of the bolt falling to the ground.

The door opened in response, Gu Pinglin entered the room, and immediately felt the moist moisture in the air. There was a large bathtub in the center of the room, and it was obvious that the people inside were taking a bath.

Long black hair hangs outside the wooden barrel, and a strand of it sticks wetly to her neck. Duan Qingming leans against the wall of the barrel with her hands open, with a few drops of water on her tight chest, her narrow eyes are half closed, and her expression is leisurely. However, he enjoyed it quite a bit, and there was a faint heat in the barrel, which made the two red shadows at the end of his eyes even more strange.

They were all men, Gu Pinglin was stunned for a moment, then quickly came back to his senses, with a bad tone: "What's going on?"

"What's worth your worry?" Duan Qingming slowly opened his eyes, and patted his hand on the edge of the bucket, "Talk slowly, do you want to come in and sit down, and talk while washing?"

Gu Pinglin looked at the bathtub, and refused politely: "Thank you, I have never been in the habit of bathing with others."

"It's a pity," Duan Qingming stopped and said with a smile, "However, many things are slowly getting used to, why not try it?"

Gu Pinglin ignored his banter: "What happened to that letter, what did you do?"

Duan Qingming pretended not to know: "What letter?"

Gu Pinglin didn't like to deal with him the most, so he said bluntly: "It was you who introduced them to Duan's Lingcao Garden."

"Oh, this matter..." Duan Qingming suddenly realized, "I asked them to go to Duan's Lingcao Garden, aren't you satisfied with the result?"

"Read my letter privately, should I be grateful to you?"

"Of course, I solved a problem for you very well."

"Are you well-intentioned?" Gu Pinglin exposed him, "Let them go to Duan's house to work, and that Mrs. Qi will definitely think that they are the forces you cultivated, and they will have a good life?"

"Wouldn't it be easy for them to fight each other?" Duan Qingming looked at him with a smile, "Gu Xiaojiu, do you really care about the Gu family so much?"

Gu Pinglin snorted, he didn't have much affection for the Gu family, not to mention the experience of being hunted down in his previous life, so he wouldn't care: "This is my business, I will handle it myself."

Duan Qingming said: "My solution is the most effective, there is a better way, why not use it?"

"Who made you troublesome?"

"You want to be my opponent, I just want you to concentrate more, you really don't appreciate it."

"I want to concentrate, and I don't need you to intervene."

"Where's Bu Shuihan?"

Gu Pinglin was stunned for a while, and emphasized again: "I don't need outsiders to intervene in my affairs."

"Hey, are there still few outsiders who intervene in the affairs of this world?" Duan Qingming said slowly, "Doesn't our group of outsiders need to solve the disaster of monsters in the mist and wilderness? Who stipulates that outsiders cannot intervene, and outsiders want to intervene , who can stop it?"

Having been an enemy all his life, Gu Pinglin discovered for the first time that this person's thoughts were not on the same line as his own, and his reasoning with him was completely the same as chicken and duck.When Gu Pinglin figured this out, he couldn't help being surprised, his eyes became complicated, and his anger subsided inexplicably.

Duan Qingming looked at him for a while, then closed his eyes indifferently: "Okay, it's up to you."

"Anyway, I don't want this kind of thing to happen again." Gu Pinglin came back to his senses, and couldn't say anything else, turned around and left.

At that time, the misty wilderness was not new. The magic cultivator of Reincarnation Valley sneaked into the Northwest Plains and destroyed the forbidden seal between the Broken Soul Forest and the Great Wilderness. The misty wilderness of the city has also been affected, and the small sects and people nearby have all suffered.In this situation, of course, the Righteous Path Alliance of the Comprehension Realm cannot just sit idly by, not to mention that the high-level ferocious beast has cultivated a top-grade demon pill, which is also a good opportunity for each faction to reap benefits. Chen Qian was among them, and it took several months for the alliance to settle the disaster.

Today, the high-level monsters in the misty wilderness have basically been killed. The masters entered the Broken Soul Forest to re-seal the entrance, and the remaining low-level monsters were scattered all over the wilderness. All factions use their disciples to train their hands and let them gain some combat experience. .Gu Pinglin was preparing for this.In terms of cultivation, in fact, he no longer needs Yue Songting's guidance. What he needs is time to improve his cultivation and swordsmanship step by step.

Another month later, Yue Songting really asked Chang Jinxin to lead his disciples to set off, and they rode golden eagles straight to the misty wilderness.

It was the first time for the junior disciples to participate in the mission, excited and curious, talking non-stop on the way.Duan Qingming still has that gentle and humble appearance, he can chat and laugh happily with anyone, and he has always been very popular.Gu Pinglin was much quieter, and rarely participated in joking, and only occasionally spoke out to remind everyone of their negligence, and his ideas were feasible, Chang Jinxin trusted him more and more.

After eating and sleeping in the open, after traveling for about a month, everyone finally arrived in the misty wilderness.

The Misty Wilderness is located on the outer edge of the Broken Soul Forest. It is a desolate grassland. It is named because it is shrouded in fog all year round.Over the wilderness, wisps of thin mist drifted away, clusters of thick dense fog filled the air, the air was humid, the visibility was low, and the yellow and green grass on the ground was mottled, everyone walked through the fog, and occasionally saw small pieces of debris Among the leaf bushes, there are strange calls, most of them are wandering spirits, fierce crows and demon cats, which make people feel uneasy.

The junior disciples followed Chang Jinxin cautiously. After walking for a while, a few disciples tried to kill a demon cat and felt relieved. Then everyone gradually let go of their courage. Occasionally, some disciples made a fuss and made jokes , a group of people became lively.

At night, everyone rested among the bushes and built a fire.

The night in the wilderness is not lonely, the firelight reflects on the fog layer above the head, it is very red and beautiful.The disciples gathered together to talk. Tomorrow everyone will go to practice individually. It is inevitable that they will be nervous. Many people discussed forming a team. As Yue Songting's closed disciple, Gu Pinglin performed brilliantly in the entry competition, and he was stable and never showed any pride , although he is serious, everyone loves to approach him, and there are quite a few teams who sent out invitations, so Gu Pinglin readily agreed.

While everyone was talking, Gu Pinglin walked to the furthest fire and sat down, added some firewood, and meditated with his eyes closed.

Not long after, there was movement beside him.

Gu Pinglin opened his eyes and saw that it was indeed Duan Qingming.Since the incident with the Gu family last time, Gu Pinglin has been practicing in seclusion, and the two of them haven't spoken to each other.

Duan Qingming said: "Together?"

This person has always been conceited and disdains to cooperate with others. If he really agrees to cooperate with someone, the other party should be careful instead.Gu Pinglin knew him best, so he was a little surprised when he heard this, and refused: "I have already agreed to Junior Brother Wang."

Duan Qingming didn't care, and asked, "Which way?"

Gu Pinglin replied: "Northwest."

Duan Qingming lay down on his back and stopped talking.

Gu Pinglin asked casually, "Where are you going?"

"northwest."

"Ok?"

Gu Pinglin frowned.

In his previous life, he and other Xuanming Sect disciples went south, but now that he joined the Lingxin Sect, he would also go north.

"Why," Duan Qingming said, "I can't go to the northwest?"

The momentary anomaly was captured by him, Gu Pinglin lowered his eyes slightly to hide his expression.

Of course you can’t go, because the things there are not even a cultivator in Qi refining like Bu Shuihan can deal with. In the previous life, a team of Lingxin Sect had an accident in the Luoyan Swamp in the northwest, and lost four disciples. Gu Pinglin remembered those disciples Gu Pinglin wanted to take them to the south, but he thought that other teams might also be killed by mistake, so he It was decided not to change the route, or it could prevent other people from having accidents.

As for Duan Qingming, no matter how talented he is, it is impossible to deal with that thing.Gu Pinglin wanted to defeat him, but he didn't want him to die unjustly in the misty wilderness like this. However, this person was naturally restless. If he knew what it was, he might have to go, and even drag others to play with him.

Gu Pinglin said calmly: "If you want to follow, it's naturally good."

Duan Qingming didn't answer the topic: "You are very familiar with my swordsmanship."

Gu Pinglin was not surprised.

Duan Qingming is used to using Gu Ying sword light to block people's sight. Gu Pinglin suffered a big loss in his previous life, but he got used to it later. It was just a small sideways movement in the entry test, and he really noticed it. After all, the two had never fought against each other before. , it is impossible for him not to be suspicious.

Gu Pinglin said: "Knowing the opponent is something that everyone will do."

"Really." Duan Qingming looked puzzled.

"Of course." Gu Pinglin remained calm, as if letting him guess.

Duan Qingming asked suddenly: "What's in the northwest?"

He suddenly turned back to the topic, if it were someone else, he would be caught off guard by the question and show his flaws.But Gu Pinglin just looked at him with raised eyebrows, and asked, "What do you think?"

Duan Qingming said slowly: "Although the misty wilderness has been cleaned up, there may be one or two ominous beasts that were missed."

It is not surprising that he can think of it.Gu Pinglin knew that he was just probing, so he laughed: "Yes, if you are not afraid of death, go and see for yourself."

"Are you provoking me?"

"You can understand it that way."

Duan Qingming slightly turned his face when he heard the words, looked at him for a long time, and smiled lightly.

Gu Pinglin asked: "What are you laughing at?"

"I laugh, Gu Xiaojiu, your aggressive tactics this time are too deliberate."

"I always have."

"You don't want me to go," Duan Qingming sat up, leaned closer to Gu Pinglin, resting his chin on his shoulder, "What's there?"

The breath of speaking was in the ears, and the hair on the sideburns trembled.Gu Pinglin remained calm: "Is there any reason for me to stop you from going?"

"You care about me?"

"Maybe, after all, we are friendly brothers." Gu Pinglin glanced at him sideways, and said with a half-smile, "But maybe, I just knew you would be suspicious and deliberately lured you. Do you dare? Use the aggressive method."

"Oh?"

Four eyes facing each other.

The narrow eyes are still dark and bottomless, and the mind is unpredictable;

Ying's eyes are as bright as stars, and her emotions are too exposed, but she doesn't know if it's true or not.

After a while, Duan Qingming raised his face with a smile and stopped talking.

Gu Pinglin was not sure what he was thinking, but he knew that talking too much on this issue would cause bad things. Just as he was about to change the subject, he raised his eyes and saw the flames lit up in the thick fog in the distance, and the flames gradually approached here , there was still a human voice faintly.

"There's someone over there." Someone called.

The disciples of the Lingxin Sect stood up at the same time and looked at Chang Jinxin.

Chang Jinxin had already noticed the movement, and asked far away, "I don't know which faction of friends the visitor is from?"

"Xiao Chang!" A woman exclaimed in surprise, "Is that you?"

"So it's Senior Sister Yan," Chang Jinxin heaved a sigh of relief, and turned around to explain, "She's a friend of the Xuanming Sect."

Hearing that they were members of the Xuanming Sect, all the Lingxin disciples immediately lost their enthusiasm, groaned, and sat down to talk again. They really didn't have a good impression of the Xuanming Sect, so they didn't bother to pay attention.

On the contrary, Gu Pinglin couldn't help pursing his lips, stood up, and looked at the group of people walking towards him.
