Uncle Hua's face showed excitement. This was an outer disciple. He was able to accompany Hua Su home. This was a great honor. He immediately saluted Gu Shuo and said:
"I dare not let you call me that."
Gu Shuo waved his hands, indicating that it didn't matter, and the group of people walked towards the mountain gate. After exiting the mountain gate, they walked towards Huajia Village. A few miles later, Gu Shuo saw Zhang Yinggu coming from the opposite side. She had a heroic look on her face.
At this time, he gained even more confidence. When he saw Gu Shuo from a distance, he waved his hand and said:
"Junior Brother Gu!"
Then he greeted Xiang Yuan and others, and Gu Shuo and others also said hello. When they came closer, Gu Shuo said:
"Senior Sister Zhang, are you out?"
"Well, you forgot, I teach two little girls in Fangshi." Zhang Yinggu smiled freely.
"Are you... still going?" Gu Shuo was a little surprised. With Zhang Yinggu's current status, she didn't need those resources at all.
"When I promised someone, I must have a beginning and an end." Zhang Yinggu said, "What are you doing?"
"Junior sister Hua's mother passed away, let's go home with her."
"Oh!" Zhang Yinggu turned to Hua Su and said, "Junior Sister Hua, my condolences."
"Thank you, Senior Sister Zhang."
Gu Shuo saw that Zhang Yinggu seemed to have something to say to him, so he asked Hua Su and others to leave first. After they had gone a little further, Gu Shuo said to Zhang Yinggu:
"Senior Sister Zhang, is there something wrong?"
Zhang Yinggu nodded and said, "You should be more careful. I heard that you got into trouble again in the Daqi Sect."
Gu Shuo was a little embarrassed: "It's not like... causing trouble."
"Anyway, you have to be more careful. How can anyone be like you? They are having a Golden Elixir celebration, but you are treating it like a foodie convention."
Gu Shuo laughed to cover up his embarrassment.
"The Daqi Sect is not a big one, so be careful if they target you."
"It's okay, I'm not someone to be bullied. I'm the Dragon Gate Swordsman, come and kill them all."
"Longmen Swordsman?" A look of surprise appeared on Zhang Yinggu's face.
"oh……"
Gu Shuo didn't know there was something wrong with that brain just now, so he thought of the nickname Qing Shu gave him and said it casually. At this time, he was even more embarrassed and almost dug a hole in the ground with his toes.
Seeing Gu Shuo's embarrassed look, Zhang Yinggu covered her mouth and her bright eyes curved into crescent moons.
Gu Shuo became more and more embarrassed: "Senior Sister Zhang, I... will leave first."
"Don't leave yet!" Zhang Yinggu called Gu Shuo, her face turned serious: "You haven't been ambushed recently, right?"
"No!"
Gu Shuo's expression also became serious. He knew that this should be what Zhang Yinggu wanted to say to him.
Zhang Yinggu nodded: "I went back and thought about it for a long time. It seems that only Yu Feilong and Shen Fengwan may target you. But Yu Feilong is dead, and Shen Fengwan left the sect again and went to Yanxia Mountain. I really can't think about it.
Who else will target you?"
"Shen Fengwan!" Gu Shuo repeated in a low voice, recalling the several times he had met Shen Fengwan.
"Anyway, you have to be careful, especially Shen Fengwan's senior brothers. I will continue to investigate."
"Thank you!" Gu Shuo said seriously.
"And...that brother Mu of yours is really my master?" Zhang Yinggu's face suddenly turned red.
"Yeah, what's wrong? He regretted not accepting you as his disciple? I'll wait until I have the chance to see him..."
"No, no!" Zhang Yinggu waved her hands repeatedly, with a look of urgency on her face: "When you first met Mu... my master, what did you think and recommended me to my master?
I heard from my master that you asked my master to teach me the hidden spiritual elixir."
"It was me. I told you that before, but you didn't believe it at that time."
Zhang Yinggu wrinkled her nose and said, "Who can believe it! You, a little disciple, call the master of the Alchemy Hall your eldest brother. Who in the right mind would believe it?"
Gu Shuo touched his chin: "In this way, I am a very human being!"
Zhang Yinggu burst out laughing. To be honest, Zhang Yinggu was already beautiful, and her smile touched people's hearts. Zhang Yinggu laughed twice, then lowered her head slightly and said nothing. Gu Shuo was a little puzzled. When Zhang Yinggu raised her head, her eyes
He was a little red and his voice was soft:
"Thanks!"
"This...there is nothing to be grateful for! Your reaction is not like yours. In my impression, you are all heroic and unassuming."
"I...you...you could have chosen me as your master instead of recommending me to my master."
"This...can't do it."
"Why not? I heard Master say that Master is willing to teach you how to make alchemy."
"I'm not talking about your master, it's about me."
"What's your reason?" Zhang Yinggu opened her reddish eyes, making her face even more attractive in the sunlight.
"Yeah! I've always called him Brother Mu. If I take him as my disciple, wouldn't it mean that I would be a generation shorter?"
"That's nonsense!" Zhang Yinggu couldn't help but raise her hand and slap Gu Shuo: "What does it mean to be plain? Master will teach you alchemy, okay?"
"Well, things are already like this. What's more, I don't have the ambition to make alchemy. If I want to learn alchemy in the future, I can do it if I can't learn from you. Why bother to be a generation short of Brother Mu?"
Zhang Yinggu seemed to suddenly think of something. She put her hands behind her back, leaned her upper body slightly forward, her eyes curled into crescent moons and said:
"Then...you call my master Big Brother, should I call you Uncle Gu?" Then he tilted his head slightly, as if he was imagining a scene:
"If one day I see you and my master drinking tea and chatting, should I say, 'Master, hello, uncle Gu?' And then do you want to say, 'My nephew is good?'"
Seeing Zhang Yinggu frowning and looking troubled, Gu Shuo rolled his eyes: "Do you have a sense of the picture?"
"Uh-huh!"
"What's wrong!"
Gu Shuo turned around and strode away, and Zhang Yinggu's voice came from behind: "Be careful!"
"Got it!" Gu Shuo waved his hand with his back to Zhang Yinggu.
Gu Shuo took a Qingyun step, his figure was like a wisp of smoke, and soon saw the backs of Hua Su and others, then slowed down and chased after them.
"Senior Brother Gu! Are you done talking to Senior Sister Zhang?" Hua Su asked, with a vague resentment in her eyes.
"Yeah!" Gu Shuo nodded. He didn't want to say more. He glanced at the direction and said, "This is the way to Fangshi."
Hua Su said, "I want to go to the market to exchange for some gold."
Gu Shuo then understood that for people like Hua Su who returned to their hometown for funerals, they naturally wanted to honor their family members, and even felt like returning home in fine clothes. The funeral wanted to be beautiful, and they also wanted to leave some money to the family.
In any case, Hua Su has also entered the immortal sect now, so he cannot make the funeral like an ordinary person.
After going to Fangshi, Hua Su exchanged five hundred taels of gold. Gu Shuo put the five hundred taels of gold into Hua Su's storage bag, and then the group headed towards Huajia Village.
