Shen Du, are you going to die
A long time ago, Shen Du also asked himself the same question.
At that time he replied to himself: No, I won't die, I can't die, I... don't want to die, I have to live, live for a long time.
But now...
He blinked, as if to dispel all the strong emotions in his eyes, so that others would not see the clues, or he didn't want to make himself feel so obvious.
Then he smiled lightly and replied, "I'm about to die."
"… "
At this moment, Gu Zhao suddenly felt as if he had been slashed by someone, and the blade just landed on his heart, so a gust of blood flowed down.
But the heart has not stopped beating, so the blood is more turbulent.
I have known Shen Du for five years.
He never thought that he would hear such a sentence from his mouth.
Shen Du is a monster who is better to die than to live, and he is unwilling to die. He believes that even if he is thrown into the mountains and forests to eat grass roots and bark, he will not easily say the word "death".
But now...
The words that sounded cloudy and breezy were right in my ears.
Gu Zhao suspected that he had heard it wrong.
No one spoke for a long time.
Shen Du slowly turned his head to look at him, and then smiled: "Tsk, Gu, you must be reluctant to let me die, right?"
With a somewhat casual laugh.
frivolous.
It also has a long meaning, like floating clouds floating in the sky.
Gu Zhao stared at him, the smile on his lips gradually faded, but his voice still revealed an indescribably charming taste, which even made people think that he was gentle and elegant.
"I think you are not only going to die, but also going crazy."
When the voice fell, people had already left.
It went straight to Yiyang City.
Shen Du was standing behind him, looking at his back, but he couldn't tell whether he believed what he said to him or not.
Believe it or not, what does it matter
There was no need to talk about this between him and Gu Zhao.
His brows were lightly curved, and Shen Du didn't bother to think about what Gu Zhao was planning now. He finally glanced at the flag on the city tower and followed.
Yiyang is an ancient city.
In the early years of war, this place was used to gather troops. But there have been no wars in these years, and the caravans that communicated with the outer regions all crossed the road from the northwest, not from the northwest of Shanxi, so this place gradually became deserted.
It's more like a small town than a city.
Entering that city gate, the rather old and dilapidated scene in the city came into view.
There are no pedestrians on the road.
They are outsiders, and they are quite impressive when they walk in the road, but there are really no people in the world, and they are not worried about being discovered by others, so Shen Du is only a few steps behind and follows behind Gu Zhao.
Gu Zhao didn't care about him either.
After entering the city all the way, he turned around in the middle of the road, and finally walked into a secluded alley. When he reached a small door with peeling black paint, he knocked on the rusted doorknocker.
In a moment, the door opened.
Tong Bo's old face appeared in the crack of the opened door. He looked out with his eyes and saw Gu Zhao first, so he called out, "Young master."
Then I saw Shen Du.
His eyes suddenly became cold and solemn. Although he recognized who he was, he only glanced coldly and didn't say hello.
On his side, he had already moved out of the way.
Gu Zhao walked in.
Shen Du followed behind, just crossed the threshold, and when he was next to Tong Bo, he deliberately stopped and said with a smile, "Oh, my big devil has come to pester your young master again, but I really don't think so. Excited."
Tomber gritted his teeth.
He deliberately wanted to raise his palm to compete with Shen Du, and let this evil devil die here. But one is that he is a guest brought by the young master, and the other is that he can't beat his martial arts skills, so he can only endure it.
For a while, the skin smiled and replied without a smile: "Shen Daozhu has self-knowledge, which is very rare."
Shen Duan laughed, and only pointed at Tong Bo and turned to Gu Zhao: "Look, that's why I don't like this bad old man."
Not even a cause and effect!
It seems that all the things Gu Zhao is doing now, or become like this, are all caused by his big devil!
God knows that he is so black that it has nothing to do with him, Shen Du!
Gu Zhao knew that Tong Bo did not like Shen Du.
Shen Du is not a person who is easy to get along with. After all, he is a demon and Taoist master, and one person is below ten thousand people. How can he be happy when his nose and eyes are raised by the bad old man he calls him
So when he usually comes out to see Shen Du, he doesn't bring Tong Bo.
But today is special.
"If you don't like it, why did you tell Tong Bo?" Gu Zhao glanced back at him, and didn't bother much about the matter, he just walked into the courtyard, "Come with me and show you. The descendants of Saint Wu."
Shen Du shrugged and didn't bother to care.
Without looking at Uncle Tong's ugly face, he had a smile on his face, as if he was also the master of this place, Shi Shiran followed Gu Zhao's footsteps.
At the same time, he also looked around without making a sound.
The yard is not big, it is a very ordinary small courtyard in the market.
Outside, the old bluestone slabs are paved, and some medicinal materials are drying, and the air is filled with a little bitter medicinal smell. Once inside the house, the smell of medicine became stronger.
Shen Du didn't like the smell, it reminded him of Ni Qianqian's medicine house.
His brows furrowed quietly, but he didn't speak.
The light in the house is a little dim.
Before he walked in, he faintly heard the sound of pounding the medicine. It was deeper and shallower. Obviously, the person who pounded the medicine had no strength in his hands, and he could not feel any martial arts cultivation.
The man was standing beside the table, looking at the outline of his body, he was really thin.
"Master Lou."
Gu Zhao walked into the door, then stopped and shouted.
The man's pounding of medicine stopped immediately.
When he turned toward the door, he saw Gu Zhao, revealing that delicate and pale face, and in the eyes that resembled Lu Feichan, it was a little more cramped.
"Young Master Gu, you are here."
Shen Du raised his eyebrows when he heard the title from behind.
But he didn't speak.
Gu Zhao didn't care about him, he just stepped forward, with a warm smile on his face, and his every move was like a fairy: "Young Master Lou is very polite, I don't know if I have wronged you to live here these few days, but I'm still used to it. ?"
"I was already poor, and it was only through your rescue that I got out of this predicament, and I survived in humiliation. How can I not be used to being able to live a peaceful life for a few days?"
This young man should be Lou Zhang.
There was a weak sickness in his voice, and he coughed a few times after speaking.
Shen Du was somewhat unexpected.
He thought about it for a while, then walked up directly, approached and looked at the young man, he was not polite, and asked directly, "Are you Lou Zhang?"
"… Yes."
Perhaps because he didn't know Shen Du's identity, the young man was a little timid when he opened his mouth to answer.
Shen Du noticed that not only was his complexion pale, but his lips also had a somewhat strange purple-blue color, and there was a small red mole on the end of his right eyebrow, which was actually the appearance of a lover.
Both hands were hanging neatly by his side.
The blue meridians on the back of the hand meander, but the fingers are covered with tiny scars.
His brows furrowed unconsciously.
When Shen Du didn't speak, he was actually a very oppressive person, not to mention that he had accumulated power over the past ten years on the Demon Dao, and a natural pressure and coldness had condensed on his body, which was frightening.
Now he only looked at Lou Zhang twice, and Lou Zhang started shaking.
Gu Zhao stood aside without saying a word.
But Shen Du laughed: "I won't eat you again, what are you afraid of? After all, he is also the descendant of Lou Dongwang and Lu Feixian. If he is so courageous, wouldn't it make people look down upon him?"
"I, I was weak and sick when I was born, and I couldn't move around, so I was fostered by my parents in Master's medical hall since I was a child. I haven't seen them since I was seven years old. It was Master who raised me and taught me medicine. I If you don't know martial arts and don't know who you are, of course you're afraid."
Lou Zhang subconsciously straightened his back and replied like this.
Shen Du asked, "Who is your master?"
"Zhang Shuping of the Baicaotang in southern Anhui."
Lou Zhang hesitated for a moment, then glanced at Gu Zhao again, and then said the name.
"Don't look at him, he brought me here because he wanted you to answer my question." Shen Du took a step, stood closer to him, and narrowed his eyes, "You said you were Lou Dongwang and Lu Feixian. Descendants, but do you know who I am?"
"Know."
Somewhat unexpectedly, Lou Zhang nodded.
Shen Du was suddenly surprised.
Lou Zhang didn't look back at Gu Zhao again, but he looked back at Gu Zhao: "Did you tell him?"
Gu Zhao did not deny it, but said: "Lou Gongzi was frail and sick since he was a child. When the old ghost chaser was chased and killed in the rivers and lakes last year, he entered the Baicaotang in southern Anhui and forced Zhang Shuping to treat him, so he picked it up in the chaos. That silver moon hook. Old Soul Chaser had seen Lu Feixian, so he recognized him at the time. Later, because of Lou Gongzi's eyes, he was found from the crowd. After leaving, Lou Gongzi was imprisoned, and when the time is right, he will take him to the Tianji Temple to fetch the three volumes of the Buddha's collection."
"so?"
Shen Du knew that he still had something to say later.
Gu Zhao only stepped forward and pulled Lou Zhang's hand, pressed him to sit down, and pressed his fingers on his wrist, actually feeling a pulse for him.
The mouth did not stop.
"Zhang Shuping has a kind of nurturing to Lou Gongzi, and the old soul chaser can be regarded as half of his father's enemy. I killed the old soul chaser, thus saving Lou Gongzi, and I have discussed this plan with him. You don't have to cross-examine him too much, he knows it all. If you doubt his identity, look at him, don't you understand?"
Yes.
These eyes are so similar.
Gu Zhao had never met Lu Feixian, but Lu Feichan he knew was Lu Feixian's niece. Speaking of eyebrows and eyes alone, this Lou Zhang and Lu Feican are indeed very similar.
But, "What is the plan this time?"
"Lou Gongzi was born weak and sickly, just like the senior Lu Feixian back then. It was all thanks to Zhang Shuping's various methods over the years to continue his life. Now that Zhang Shuping is dead, only the white bone medicine doctor Ni Qianqian may have the ability to save him. life."
Gu Zhao's two long eyebrows frowned slightly and put down his hands.
"It's been a few years since the demons kidnapped Ni Qianqian. I feel sorry for Lord Lou's encounter, and I also remember that I have a good relationship with Lu Feichan, and I also have a righteous relationship with Xiefeng Villa. I can't help but plan for Lord Lou first. I know you coveted three The volume of the Buddha has been stored for a long time, and now the son of Lou is here, I have discussed with him, as long as you are willing to let Ni Qianqian diagnose and treat him, he will go to the Tianji Temple and get three volumes of the Buddha's collection, which can be given to you."
Gee.
Started talking nonsense again.
Almost instantly, Shen Du heard something wrong in Gu Zhao's words. What does it mean to look out for Lou Dong and ask him to ask Ni Qianqian to heal him, willing to exchange three volumes of the Buddha's collection
It's clear that he's fooling this kid.
After all, how can Gu Zhao, who is known as the "First Immortal of Pengshan", have an intersection with this devil for no reason
Right now, the reason is just right.
The white bone medicine doctor Ni Qianqian happened to be in his hands. This Lou Zhang was indeed a sick child at first glance. It didn't look like he could live healthy and healthy for many years.
Therefore, Gu Zhao's plan can be regarded as having no desires and no desires, and he has a deep sense of righteousness!
If you think about it with your toes, you know that if this matter spreads out, those idiots in the rivers and lakes can blow Gu Zhao to the sky!
One does not want Buddha possessions, and the other is dedicated to saving people.
If he didn't know what Gu Zhao's plan was when he came, I'm afraid he would be deceived by his compassionate and humiliating appearance!
Shen Du narrowed his eyes and smiled.
His brows were filled with suffocating energy, such a smile, not only did not show any kind of kindness, but also a kind of gloomy and evil spirit.
Just like that, he approached Lou Zhang to look at it, and then asked, "You are willing to say what he said?"
Lou Zhang was taken aback.
His face turned pale, and he fell back. If Gu Zhao hadn't helped him, he would have fallen directly.
Facing Shen Du's question, he was speechless.
Gu Zhao had already frowned, and when he turned to look at Shen Du, he had a cold expression of disapproval. Anyone who saw it would know that they were black and white, and that they were different from each other.
"Master Shen, don't go too far."
"Excessive? Ni Qianqian is still in my hands, and only you are the ones who are willing to throw the mouse at me. Since you are asking me to save people, you have to have the attitude of saving people."
Shen Duxi became addicted and acted very well.
"Wu Sheng and Lu Feixian are both dead, you are a little bastard, who do you think of yourself?"
The last bit of blood on Lou Zhang's face was lost.
Gu Zhao's face turned cold, and he suddenly stood up: "Shen Du!"
In this way, it looks like they are about to fight if they don't agree with each other.
In fact, Gu Zhao also reached out and touched his waist, as if he was about to take out some weapon.
But this time a hand reached out and grabbed him.
Gu Zhao frowned slightly, and when he turned around, he saw Lou Zhang's extremely pale face, as well as the smile he barely hung up: "Master Lou..."
"I'm fine."
Lou Zhang's eyes showed a bit of gratitude, but then he slowly let go of his hand, actually stood up by himself, walked in front of Shen Du, and bowed to his long body.
"Also please don't be surprised, Taoist Shen, I have never seen anything in the world, and I was frightened by you. I am afraid of death when I am alive. My meridians have been fragile since I was a child, even if I have the essence of martial arts left by my father, I will I can't practice martial arts either. Now that I've been discovered, it's not far off. But I don't care about so many disputes, and I'm not able to participate. I just want to seek a corner of peace and live in this world for two years, seeing that my mother doesn't watch it. Complete scenery."
There was a little tear in his eyes.
"Three volumes of Buddhist treasures are handed over to you, and the storms of the rivers and lakes have nothing to do with me. I hope that the Taoist master will be fulfilled."
"… "
Shen Du looked at him and bowed to the end, but did not speak for a long time.
Gu Zhao also stood by and watched, but the sympathetic look on his face that was still on his face, and the anger at Shen Du's rude words in the bottom of his eyes had completely dissipated.
He was actually indifferent to Lou Zhang's humble and pitiful gesture.
This point, Shen Du also knew clearly.
The young man in front of him was really just entering the arena and didn't understand anything.
But just imagine...
Even among the old rivers and lakes who have been in the world for many years, how many of them can see through today's game, or have doubts about such a glamorous person as Gu Zhao
Just a poor bastard who wants to live in the world.
Shen Du laughed.
He didn't go to help Louzhang, and he didn't give him a clear answer. He just walked out of the courtyard with this strange smile on his face.
The sky outside turned dark in the blink of an eye.
There are not many people in this small town near the border, so even if it is late in the evening, there are not many lights on, and it looks particularly dark and cold.
Even the wind that was blowing seemed to be whimpering.
Shen Du stood in the alley and looked up, the stars dotted the sky.
After a while, Gu Zhao walked out and said with a smile: "Sometimes I wonder, how can there be someone like you in the world who is born with me. You don't need to say a word, you know what I'm thinking, and know what to do. How to act. I have pity on Mr. Lou, you and I have been deceived by you and me. "
"Do you actually have the word 'poor' in your heart?" Shen Du looked back at him, with a little more scrutiny in his eyes, "If you talk about hypocrisy, you are ten times better than me."
"I thought there was no word for 'poor' in your heart."
Gu Zhao looked back at him without any hesitation, but the words in his answer meant something.
Shen Du's complexion gradually became difficult to look at.
Gu Zhao didn't seem to see it. He took two steps forward, walked up to him, and said, "You have seen the person, and the matter is settled. When will the person be taken away?"
"Wait for me to return to the Demon Road."
Shen Du thought for a while, and then came up with a better plan.
"Isn't there still a deal between you and me?"
"Seven days later, you will send a team of righteous people to the vicinity of Xuzhou City and bring this Lou Zhang."
"At that time, I will send someone to snatch it. First, I will cut off a few disobedient people on the demon road. Second, it will make me more distrustful and make you more innocent."
Saying that, he laughed.
"On the face, I said to people, you and I had an appointment first, I asked Ni Qianqian to diagnose and treat him, and the three volumes of the Buddha Treasure belonged to me; but I coveted the Buddha Treasure, I still don't believe you, and I don't want Ni Qianqian to do it. This Lou Zhang diagnosed and treated, so he forcibly robbed people."
"In this way, when the incident happens, it will be more convenient for you to take the righteous people with me to go up the mountain without empty-"
"Because you are concerned about Lou Zhang's safety, and you are afraid that I will kill you after I succeed."
After Gu Zhao finished listening, he didn't speak.
There seemed to be some elusive mist in his eyes, but when he looked at Shen Du, it seemed deep and dark.
Shen Du asked, "How about you look at my plan?"
It is perfect and thorough, and has already found sufficient reasons for the good and evil to force the two together to go to the Bukong Mountain. At that time, it can be said that one sings a red face, and the other sings a white face.
Who would have thought
He and Shen Du were originally the same raccoon dog, and they were in tune with each other.
This plan...
Gu Zhao slowly hooked his lips: "It's reasonable and reasonable, and it's a no-brainer."
"Hahaha..." Shen Du rarely burst out laughing, then he lifted his feet and walked out of the alley, "So, in a month, the Xiefeng Villa will meet in the world, remember to send the invitation, see you then."
"Are you going back?"
Needless to say, the omitted three words are "demon way", but this point is between the two of them, so there is no need to deliberately bring it up. Gu Zhao knew it, and so did Shen Du.
When he stopped, he was a little strange: "It's time to go back to take care of some things, do you have anything else to do?"
"Going back this time, there are many dangers in the way of demons. How will you deal with this person, Pei Wuji?"
Gu Zhao didn't talk nonsense and asked directly.
When he was talking, his eyes fell tightly on Shen Du's back, as if he wanted to penetrate the back and see what expression he had on his face.
Shen Du was silent for a while.
In the dark and cold alley, there was no sound, not even any light. Only the faint starlight above the head fell, but it could not illuminate anyone's shadow, and it couldn't illuminate anyone's eyes.
Tight and dark.
After a long time, his shallow voice sounded in the silence and darkness: "I will deal with the people on the demon road. Gu Zhao, are you asking too much?"
Ask too much
Gu Zhao finally couldn't help laughing, and there was a sense of absurdity in his heart.
He knew that he shouldn't be talking about his own shit, but he couldn't restrain himself for a moment, so he heard his calm and cruel voice.
"Too many questions?"
"Whether he betrayed you, you should know in your heart. I hope you really know what to do with yourself—"
"Having a dog and letting him fuck you for ten years has been fucked by i?"
"boom!"
At the moment when the voice fell, Shen Du's fierce palm was already in front of him! There was no half of the smile between his brows and eyes, only Shen Ning's murderous intent, infinite ferocity!
"You talk, it's hard to hear!"
