ps: Thanks to my book friend Lao Na for the reward of 10,000 starting coins when he turns 18 this year.
In public, the third prince had nothing to do against Gu Cheng, and Gu Cheng had nothing to do against the third prince.
The emperor breaks the law and the common people are equally guilty. It is just talk. If anyone takes it seriously, it will become a real joke.
But what is Duetutuo? Without an official presence, attacking him, the leader of Jingyesi, in public is tantamount to rebellion!
A cold look appeared in Gu Cheng's eyes, and the Blood Abyss Sword in his hand was unsheathed with a clang. Green-gold Qi suddenly erupted, the dragon roared, the sword roared, and the bright sword light moved forward with indomitable force.
His momentum went straight towards Du'e Toutuo.
The sword gang collided with the opponent's fist seal, one was extremely sharp, the other was powerful, and an explosion suddenly came from the center of the two people.
A look of horror suddenly appeared in Du'e Toutuo's eyes.
He had never really fought against Gu Cheng, but he had experienced Gu Cheng's power when Gu Cheng went to besiege Xinnan Hou Mansion.
But how many days had passed? He could clearly feel that Gu Cheng's strength was even stronger than before.
In fact, Gu Cheng's growth in strength is also thanks to the third prince.
Among the practitioners of the left path who went to kill Gu Cheng before, there were quite a few practitioners of the ghost-refining lineage.
After killing him, Gu Cheng's own power base increased a little. Although it was not much, it was already a significant improvement for a practitioner of his level.
The Du'e Tutuo snorted coldly and formed a strange Buddha seal with his hands. His thick fingers were twisted into an extremely strange angle. The blue power surged in the air and turned into a blue demon.
The strange monster came fiercely and bit Gu Cheng!
Gu Cheng had always thought that Du'e Tutuo was a pure warrior before, but who would have thought that he could actually know such a weird secret technique.
The blue monster is like a ghost, with a green face and fangs, a red horn and red hair on its head.
Wherever he passed, the air seemed to be stagnant, and a deep chill kept coming from the monster's body.
With a sneer, Gu Cheng also pressed the Buddha seal with his hand. The bright Buddha light bloomed all over his body, and three seals fell down in succession!
The shocking Guanyin Seal directly dispelled the deep chill around the monster. The Lingshan Grand Mudra bloomed into a swastika Buddha seal, instantly suppressing it. Finally, the Sumeru Grand Mudra fell with great force, and only an explosion was heard. The monster had been
Gu Cheng smashed it to pieces!
Among the two people, Du Etoutuo was wearing a monk's robe and dressed as a Buddhist. However, he used such weird secret techniques, while Gu Cheng used standard Buddhist techniques. This scene seemed a bit strange.
Nadu'e Tutuo was angry and wanted to take action, but was firmly held back by Situ Xiao.
At the same time, Situ Xiao also sent a message to the third prince: "Your Highness, don't get entangled with him. It doesn't matter how you fight with the second prince and the fourth prince, but your fight with Gu Cheng here has in vain lowered your power."
Status, not worth it.
Taoist priest Wang Maoxing finally managed to get the Taoist priests from Baiyun Temple to see you, so let’s not waste time here.”
Hearing what Situ Xiao said, the third prince snorted loudly, threw a token to Gu Cheng, and said coldly: "Is it okay now?"
Holding the token, Gu Cheng smiled and said: "Of course, wouldn't it be better to take it out earlier? And Your Highness, you must take good care of the people under your command. People in Buddhism are so irritable, greedy and greedy."
If the three thoughts of anger and ignorance are not eradicated, the six roots will be impure."
Du'e Tutuo glared at Gu Cheng again, but with Situ Xiao holding him by his side, he could only follow the third prince out of the city in frustration.
Gu Yuanzhong and his son were at the end of the team. Seeing Gu Cheng's current power, these two people looked a little ugly.
When passing by Gu Cheng, Gu Yuanzhong couldn't help but snorted: "Gu Cheng, you are very majestic now. After all, your surname is Gu and you grew up in the Zhongyong Hou Mansion. Why?
Are you too lazy to call me uncle now?"
Gu Cheng did not answer Gu Yuanzhong's words. He just looked at Gu Yuanzhong with a very strange look. He kept seeing him panicking in his heart. Then Gu Cheng said calmly: "You are right. After all, we both have the surname Gu.
The same blood flows in his body.
Grandma always thought that we were a family before she died. If she saw us killing each other, she would not be happy."
Gu Yuanzhong and Gu Zheng looked at each other with expressions of confusion and disbelief.
How could these words come out of Gu Cheng's mouth?
Is it possible that he wants to get back together with himself and the others? This is even more impossible. Just now he looked like he didn't even take the third prince seriously.
Gu Cheng narrowed his eyes and said, "For the sake of our family, I will give you a chance.
There are still a few days until the ancestor worship ceremony, and you can also get the token to leave the city.
Now he packs his luggage and leaves the city softly, hiding his name from now on. The savings of the Zhongyong Hou Mansion over the years are enough to become a rich man.
For the sake of caring about my family and my grandma's kindness, I can put an end to my previous grudges.
This is the last chance, otherwise you won’t even have a chance to choose after the ancestor worship ceremony.”
Hearing what Gu Cheng said, both Gu Yuanzhong and Gu Zheng thought that Gu Cheng was ridiculing them.
Gu Zheng snorted coldly: "Gu Cheng, you are dreaming!"
Gu Yuanzhong sneered: "Gu Cheng, you are thinking too much. Although we failed the two previous times, success or failure does not depend on this one!"
Seeing that the third prince and others had already left the city, Gu Yuanzhong had no time to continue talking to Gu Cheng about these inexplicable things, so he immediately rode on horseback to chase the third prince with Gu Zheng.
Seeing the two people walking away, Gu Cheng shook his head gently. What he just said was the truth.
After all, the blood flowing in his body is the blood of the Gu family and the affection of his grandmother. Therefore, he always likes to do things to the best of his ability. This time he made an exception and gave Gu Yuanzhong and his son a chance.
As long as they remain anonymous and do not appear in front of him from now on, he will naturally be too lazy to deal with them, and it will be fine if the two sides become strangers.
It's a pity that Gu Yuanzhong and his son did not cherish this last opportunity. Maybe they thought it was just a threat and ridicule from Gu Cheng.
After nightfall, Gu Cheng stopped guarding the city gate. After all, he was also the commander-in-chief, so he just pretended to be pretentious during the day. He had to go back to rest and recuperate at night.
When Gu Cheng returned to Jingyesi in the East Region, the ditch ghost was already secretly waiting for him in the study with the token he gave him.
"Sir, I have a result here."
The ditch ghost excitedly took out a few pieces of paper and handed them to Gu Cheng.
"Don't tell me, there are people under the Third Prince who are actually related to the Maitreya Cult, and although the relationship is not close, it is not far away either.
The background of Du'e Tutuo under the third prince is not that small. The master of Du'e Tutuo was once one of the four great guardian Dharma kings of Maitreya Sect in the past.
However, there was an internal fight in the Maitreya Sect in the previous generation, and the leader changed positions. The master of Du'etutuo was the one who supported the old leader. As a result, he seemed to be somewhat marginalized within the Maitreya Sect, so he rebelled against the Maitreya Sect.
Many people in the martial arts world knew about this, but most people thought that he was dead. In fact, he only lost 90% of his martial arts skills and built a small temple by himself, but still survived.
Du'e Tutu was his disciple in his later years, but he did not teach him the techniques of Maitreya. Instead, he taught the techniques that he had studied over the years to Du'e Tutu, which also caused him to
Only a few of the exercises have traces of the Maitreya religion, and outsiders are basically unable to see them.
Now that the former Dharma King has died, Du'e Toutuo left the small temple and wandered around the world, and was finally taken under the command of the third prince."
After listening to the information from the ditch ghost, Gu Cheng couldn't help but smile.
Surprisingly, his luck is really good.
Originally, Gu Cheng was planning to forcibly connect the people under the Third Prince with the Maitreya Cult people, but now there is no need to force, this relationship is close enough.
Although it is said that the master who crossed Etutuo is a traitor to the Maitreya Sect, who stipulates that traitors cannot return to the sect?
But when the ditch ghost on the side saw Gu Cheng's weird smile, he couldn't help but tremble.
He knew who Gu Cheng was planning to plot against, and the courage of the man in front of him was probably as high as the sky.
The excitement of having just completed the task was diluted, but at this moment, the ghost in the ditch was full of anxiety, fearing that Gu Cheng would take out his sword and kill him in the next moment.
Seeing the ghost in the ditch in front of him, Gu Cheng shook his head and said, "What are you afraid of? I, Gu Cheng, am the most honest person in my work. Are you still afraid of me taking advantage of others?"
The exercises are prepared for you. Just hide in the city before the ancestor worship ceremony and don't show up. Once it's over, you'll be completely safe."
Although the guy in front of him had already guessed Gu Cheng's plan, in fact, Gu Cheng didn't really want to silence him because it was unnecessary.
Even if a guy like this wanted to inform the Third Prince, he wouldn't have a chance to get close to the Third Prince.
And even if he told the third prince that Gu Cheng was planning to plot against him, it would be useless.
Let alone whether the third prince would believe it or not, the ghost in the ditch did not know about the mutual calculation between the Maitreya Cult and the court. Even if he told it, the third prince would not be able to guard against it.
So the ditch ghost walked out of Jingyesi in a daze with his skills, with an expression on his face that seemed to be crying and laughing at the same time. Perhaps he was still feeling lucky that he could survive from the fierce and powerful Gu Cheng.
Three days passed quickly, and the third prince rushed back from Baiyunguan the next day. Compared with when he went, the third prince looked very good when he came back. He should have received some promise from Baiyunguan, or even
When I came back, I didn't bother Gu Cheng and just went into the city.
Gu Cheng also began to prepare for the complete lockdown of the capital, and the ancestor worship ceremony was finally about to begin.
The city was bustling with lanterns and banners, but Gu Cheng was standing on the top of a black tower in Jingyesi, Dongyu, silently looking into the imperial city.
What he saw was a look like the storm was about to come.
