Chapter 37: The Realm of Trying the Heart
The next morning, Gu Ying packed up his bed and got up. Looking at the white Xi that had just spit out from the sky, Gu Ying pushed open the door of the room.
Thinking that it was still early to leave, Gu Ying started strolling in the courtyard outside his room. The city lord's mansion was really big, so that every independent room was equipped with a large courtyard outside. Walking in the flowers and grass paths in the courtyard in the early morning, the fragrance of the morning dew around made Gu Ying stretch his body greatly to awaken his body to the best state of the day.
After a lazy waist, the lonely shadow suddenly rose, and the Taoist sword pulled out of the sheath began to wield in the courtyard, and the one who danced was what the Demon Lord said was helping the water to get lotus.
I saw Gu Ying waving the Taoist sword up and down, his feet were vaguely paced, dancing as if it was not the sword in his hand but the ripples on the lake surface. The white in the sky reflected on the sword body, just like the lights in the lake that made people fascinated.
However, the sword intents that came from the yard attracted Mu Yuchen's attention. He was breathing cross-legged in the bamboo forest and slowly opened his eyes. He looked at the courtyard where Gu Ying lived and couldn't help but look at the courtyard where Gu Ying lived. He stood up and walked towards Gu Ying's small courtyard.
Gu Ying's figure had become a little blurred at this time. The sword intent was constantly emanating from the Taoist sword in his hand. Each sword intent seemed not very strong, but it was continuous and did not give people a chance to breathe, which made Mu Yuchen amazed.
Suddenly, Gu Ying's body suddenly paused, and all the sword intents were collected in the sword. Then Gu Ying's sword stabbed forward, and a majestic sword intent pounced forward like a swift beast.
But after all, it was in the courtyard of someone else, Gu Ying still understood the squareness. The seemingly amazing sword intent only had its own power but had no power. It only shook a few drops of morning dew on the flowers and plants on the roadside.
"What a great sword, does this sword style have a name?" After Gu Ying took over the sword, Mu Yuchen walked in from outside the yard and asked with clapping hands.
The person who looked at Guyingyan hurriedly bowed with a sword and said, "Guying danced with a sword, and never wanted to disturb Uncle Mu. Please forgive me!"
Then he raised the Taoist sword in his hand and said, "This move is called Fushui Lotus. It was done by a senior. I have been practicing it by chance and it has not yet been fully understood."
Mu Yuchen nodded and smiled, "It seems that you have a great opportunity. I really want to see how far you can grow."
"Uncle Mu is praised." Gu Ying said humbly. Even if his current strength can turn the sky in the Spirit Realm over, it is no different from playing house in the eyes of the strong men such as Mu Yuchen. If he uses this as his capital to take Qiao, it will only increase his disgust. Sometimes, he should not take it too seriously.
"By the way Uncle Mu, what does the gentleman surnamed Su look like in Qicheng? How should I find him when I arrive in Qicheng?" Gu Ying changed his mind and asked his question. After all, he heard that Qicheng had more than a hundred schools alone. Even if he had the endurance to go to search for one school after another, he had to know what the other person looked like.
But Mu Yuchen shrugged and said two words: "I don't know."
Gu Ying was stunned when she heard this, her expression on her face became a little wonderful, and she thought to herself that the person you recommended didn't even know what she looked like? This made me go to Qicheng, how can I find it in the vast sea of people?
Mu Yuchen seemed to see Gu Ying's doubts, and smiled slightly and said, "Mr. Su is a very interesting person. People who know him will not say it, and people who don't know him will talk nonsense. It is a kind of purity for him to immerse himself in the city school."
"As for how to find him, this is also a test for him to find others. If you can arouse his interest, he will naturally appear." Mu Yuchen paused for a moment and said again.
Gu Ying nodded in a vague way of hearing this, thinking that he was a master who was exactly the same as the masters depicted in strange and strange ambitions. He hid in the market without caring about worldly affairs, and was hard to find when doing things. He was indeed amazing.
Mu Yuchen glanced at the rising sun in the sky and said, "You should almost set off, and the carriage should be waiting outside the mansion."
Gu Ying looked at the earth that had been illuminated by the dawn, and nodded deeply. He could also make his heart hanging in Qicheng earlier. As for whether he could find Mr. Su, he could only say that planning is in the way of doing things, and he can only say that it is in the way of doing things.
Mu Yuchen personally sent Gu Ying outside the mansion, and Huang Qingqing and Liu Tianfa came with him. As for the eldest lady, I don’t know if she hadn’t gotten up yet or was angry because she couldn’t go to Qicheng with Gu Ying.
"Then let's leave. I wish you can find what you want when you go to Qicheng this time." Mu Yuchen nodded to Gu Ying and said.
Gu Ying bowed slightly to everyone who came to see him off and said, "Then I will accept Uncle Mu's good words. Gu Ying has caused trouble for everyone these days and I hope that elders will not take it to my heart. Gu Ying will come back to visit all seniors in the future."
Huang Qingqing waved his hand and said, "Okay, okay, we call you old, seniors, and you're old. You should pay more attention to your visit to Qicheng. We'll be waiting for good news in Nancheng."
Gu Ying bowed to everyone again and then boarded the carriage. He felt that he was really lucky to travel this time. He strengthened Mu Yuchen's family, planted spiritual seeds, and met a strange old man. It was a great opportunity for him to take out each of them alone. This was just his gain in the past half month, which made Gu Ying full of expectations for the future.
Qicheng is completely different from Nancheng. Nancheng is arbitrary because Mu Yuchen is in charge of the rule, so the people there are also free and easy. In addition, Liu Tianfa, a big businessman, drives development there, and ordinary people are also rich. When people in Nancheng have nothing to do, they go out to listen to music and drink tea, and live a comfortable life. However, the relationships in Qicheng are more complicated. There are many sects in the leading Bai family. For example, Yan Feng, who was killed by Gu Ying, was one of the disciples of Qicheng Fengyu Sect. It is precisely because of the many forces inside that many schools are also open in Qicheng. After the students in the school come out, they serve the major factions and provide vitality for these small sects.
However, despite the many sects, the top strength is not too high. Looking at the entire Qicheng, only Bai Qing, the leader of the Bai family, has barely entered the guarding realm, but he is more than in Nancheng.
Qicheng and Nancheng are not too far apart. Guying can reach it in about one day at the current speed of the driving speed outside the window. Looking at the scenes flying outside the window, Guying couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. It seemed that he had seen many things before, but they were all illusory. Guying knew that these were just some fragmented memories left by that person, but it was precisely because of his own that he became so unreal.
This is also the reason why Mu Yuchen looked at Gu Ying and felt that it was very contradictory. He was obviously just a country boy who was not very experienced in the world, but sometimes he could show thoughts and judgments beyond his age. It was easy to see through it, but there was always a trace of mist lingering around him, making people look hazy.
At this time, Gu Ying was lying on the car window without moving. When he looked carefully, his eyes were gradually covered by a layer of fog. Gu Ying's thoughts seemed to have come to another world, with no carriage or scenery around him.
"Where am I?" Gu Ying looked around and saw her body wrapped in layers of thick fog. It seemed like someone was walking around, but she couldn't see clearly.
Gu Ying frowned. He had heard that after just planting spirits, the monk would soon face his first test of the mind. However, he never thought that his test of the mind would come so quickly. However, after experiencing the two baptisms of the Demon Lord, Gu Ying felt that this test of the mind would be as gentle as possible.
However, when Gu Ying was about to take a step and take a look, he suddenly felt like a heavy blow in his chest. He grinned in pain, and at the same time, a voice began to circulate in his ears: "Who are you?"
Gu Ying covered her chest and collapsed to the ground. If the Demon Lord's Battle Halberd pierced Gu Ying's chest in an instant, the pain now was like stabbing a Battle Halberd into his chest and stirring it wildly, constantly challenging Gu Ying's nerves.
The sound surrounding his ears became louder and louder, constantly impacting Gu Ying's will. Under the dual torture of physical and mentality, Gu Ying finally understood the power of this state of mind test.
The pain lasted for about a stick of incense before gradually dissipating. Gu Ying, who had been tortured, was still slumped on the ground and was still in fear. Looking at the foggy front, he finally understood why so many people were stuck in this step for life and it was hard to move forward. Even if he had experienced the devil-like spirit, he could hardly hold on to it. This was just the first step.
After a while, Gu Ying looked ahead and took a step forward again as he looked at the front. This was a process of self-abuse. If he couldn't take this step, he would be lost in this state of trial. He would never allow himself to fail at this step.
"Ah!" Another heart-wrenching roar was lying on the ground with red eyes, and his right hand slowly stretched out and grabbed the land in front of him. He used all his strength to move forward. Even if he crawled, he had to crawl over for me!
As Gu Ying moved, the sound surrounding his ears became louder and louder, and the pain in his chest became more and more severe. Some people said that it would not hurt when the pain reached the extreme, but Gu Ying found that the pain seemed to be limitless. Every time he moved his body, the pain in his chest would aggravate, and he might become the last straw to crush Gu Ying at any time.
"I... don't know who I am, but I want to... live!" Gu Ying gritted his teeth and squeezed out a sentence. Only this will remain in his mind to support him to continue moving forward.
"Those who hinder my heart will break it with a sword!" A voice suddenly exploded in Gu Ying's mind, and Gu Ying finally successfully took a step forward.
As Gu Ying took this step successfully, the scenes around him disappeared. When Gu Ying opened his eyes again, he only found that the driver in the car was staring at him anxiously.
"Oh...you, you finally woke up, Qicheng has arrived!"
