The fourth prince Xiao Shangzhen’s method is indeed effective.
When he persuaded "Bifang" Chu Wei to retreat in an aggressive manner, Chu Wei backed away repeatedly and never dared to ask anything about "Girl Qilin" again.
At the same time.
"Zhulong" Chen Yanping turned around and tried hard to hold back his laughter.
"Linghu" Shangguan Jin looked at the two people with interest, a meaningful smile on his face.
As for Gu Xu, when he saw the scene in front of him, he saw the identity of "Qilin".
The reason is simple.
On the one hand, Xiao Shangzhen was the only member of the Daqi royal family present;
On the other hand, although Xiao Shangzhen’s expression looked fierce at the moment, from his eyes, But there was a hint of fear and uneasiness.
Gu Xu smiled slightly without revealing it.
In such an occasion, there is no need to offend a Da Qi prince over such a trivial matter.
It’s better to stay quietly and watch the excitement.
Of course, it is very difficult for someone like him to keep a low profile.
Even if he stayed in the corner of the room without saying a word.
His unconventional appearance will still attract the attention of many people inadvertently.
Especially for a "face control" person like Shangguan Jin who appreciates all the beautiful things in the world.
Although Shangguan Jin once used Luo Sishou's bronze mirror to see Gu Xu from a distance in the illusion of "Reviewing the Old Pot".
But at this moment, she couldn't help but sigh that the real boy was obviously much more beautiful than the image in the bronze mirror.
"Why don't you make friends with him?" A thought came to her mind, "The Chief Secretary once said that he has a cultivation qualification that is rare in a century, and his future achievements will be extraordinary—— If you can form a friendship with him today, it will definitely be an investment worth your while."
But... what excuse should I find to talk to him?
Shangguan Jin thought for a moment, then gently smoothed his hair and walked straight towards Gu Xu's location.
"Friend Zhuque, long time no see," she greeted Gu Xu with a smile, "Last time you used the 'Eight Illusion Formation' to break my 'Meteor Walking on the Moon' impressed me very much!"
Hearing her voice, Gu Xu raised his head.
The girl in front of her is tall, with a slender waist, and a small face that is not stunning, but is attractive.
At first glance, people can’t help but think - "This is what first love should look like."
"Fellow Taoist Spirit Fox?" Gu Xu smiled, "Or should I call you 'Sir Shangguan'?"
Don't look at this girl's innocent appearance.
But Gu Xu still clearly remembers that in the "Realm of Discussion", she not only carried out sneak attacks without saying a word, but alsoAnd he also possesses the mysterious magical power that can calculate the trajectory of his movements.
Only a fool would regard her as an innocent girl.
For such a role, Gu Xu did not dare to let down his guard.
Hearing Gu Xu's words, Shangguan Jin responded with a smile:
"Since we have joined the 'Shenji Camp', we are partners in pursuing the road and slaying demons. Why bother distinguishing between those boring official titles?
“To be honest, I saw that Taoist friend was knowledgeable and had all kinds of knowledge and spells at his fingertips. I thought he was a dull and boring nerd - I didn’t expect that. What a surprise that he turned out to be a handsome and funny young man! ”
“Fellow Taoist Shangguan has given me the award. "Gu Xu said calmly.
Praising at the right time is one of the best ways to win the favor of others.
Gu Xu is very familiar with this routine.
Seeing that Gu Xu had no reaction, Shangguan Jin lowered his head again and continued: "It's just that I haven't fully understood the method of calculating the direction of the stars that fellow Taoist told me last time. I know that I am a bit stupid, but my Taoist friend is an expert in this field. If you don't mind, could you tell me more about it? "
"This is actually easy to understand," Gu Xu replied succinctly, "You should be able to understand if you put the Bagua array diagram and the constellation orientation diagram together and compare them. "
He could tell at a glance that Shangguan Jin was "pretending not to understand."
Appropriate displays of weakness and this seemingly trivial request can also bring two people closer. The method of distance.
Gu Xu is also familiar with this method.
"But why did she suddenly come to me? He secretly speculated in his heart, "A fourth-level monk like Lord Shangguan... actually wants something from me?" ”
Seeing Gu Xu’s perfunctory attitude, Shangguan Jin also silently thought to himself: He doesn’t seem to be doing this at all... His thoughts really don’t seem like someone who only The seventeen-year-old boy.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Shangguan Jin decided to change his strategy.
"Young Daoist Gu," she said bluntly, "I'm actually looking for you today. , I hope to walk with you in the Laoshan ruins and cope with the crisis together. "
"With me? Gu Xu showed a look of doubt at the right time, "Fellow Taoist Shangguan, with my current cultivation level, I'm afraid it's difficult to help you, right?" "
"Fellow Daoist Gu, you may not know," Shangguan Jin lowered his voice and leaned into his ear and said, "Kongxuan Sanren's cave only allows a maximum of three people to enter it... It is impossible for all of us to enter." Get a legacy. During this period, there is likely to be a fight over inheritance.
"In this process, no matter how powerful a person's power is, it will be limited after all. But I have paid attention to Gu Daoyou's performance in the 'Review Pot' illusion together with the Chief Secretary. I believe that, With my cultivation, combined with your knowledge and methods, I will be invincible in the entire Shenji Camp."
Gu Xu did not respond immediately..
He used his true energy to control the copper coins and quietly performed a divination in his pocket, which confirmed that what Shangguan Jin said was correct - only three people were allowed to enter the cave of Kongxuan Sanren.
As for why she knew such news... Gu Xu didn't ask any more questions. Based on Shangguan Jin's identity, he may actually possess a lot of little-known information.
"This is indeed an exciting proposal!" Gu Xu sighed in his heart.
He knew that there were many third-level and fourth-level monks among his fellow travelers.
Even though he can rely on various means to be invincible in the "realm of discussing Tao".
But in reality, he could not guarantee that he would be able to win the inheritance from this group of talented people from all over the country.
However, if there is a fourth realm monk as a teammate, then his chances of winning will undoubtedly be greatly improved.
Just his intuition told him that he should keep a distance from this woman who knew all the tricks... Otherwise, if he fell into her hands in the future, he would die without knowing how.
Seeing that Gu Xu remained silent, Shangguan Jin raised the corners of his mouth, tucked a strand of long hair behind his ears, and continued: "I know that fellow Taoist Gu masters a miraculous 'Inviting God Spell' ...Young Taoist Gu is so handsome, I don’t mind even if I get drained!”
She is really good at it.
If it had been another man, he would have taken the bait long ago.
Gu Xu secretly complained.
…………
However, at this moment, another person crossed the crowd and squeezed to his side.
It is Chen Yanping, the concubine of the head of the Chen family.
Chen Yanping once received a task from his father, asking him to have a good relationship with Gu Xu.
When he heard "Gu Daoyou" from Shangguan Jin, he immediately recognized that this handsome young man was the Gu Xu he had been looking for.
"May I ask if you are Mr. Gu, the manager of Yishui County?" Chen Yanping asked politely.
"It's me," Gu Xu nodded, "You are——"
"I'm Chen Yanping in Xiangyang," Chen Yanping bowed his hands and said, "I've heard of Mr. Gu a long time ago He has a great reputation. When I saw him today, he turned out to be a talented person."
Since Chen Yanping is currently managing the Chen family's property and has no official position for the time being, he does not dare to neglect his etiquette in order to avoid falling behind. Talking point.
It turns out to be a member of the Chen family!
While thinking about it, Gu Xu smiled humbly and said, "Young Taoist Chen are so complimentary. In addition, since we are all members of the 'Shenji Camp', we should forget about our official titles and treat them as 'Fellow Taoist'" Let's match it!"
Shangguan Jin next to him glanced at Chen Yanping lightly.
She was having a pleasant chat with Gu Xu just now.
Seeing that she was about to succeed, she persuaded Gu Xu to cooperate with her.
But he was suddenly interrupted by this annoying guy.
It’s really annoying!
Thinking of this, she secretly put the name "Chen Yanping" on the blacklist.
However, she still had a friendly smile on her face and said to Chen Yanping:
"Dao Daoyou Chen came here suddenly and wanted to join our conversation? "
Chen Yanping stood next to Gu Xu and said to her bluntly: "I admire Gu Daoyou's reputation and want to make friends with him."
Then he said to Gu. Xu said: "Fellow Daoist Gu, my father once told me that the Laoshan ruins are full of difficulties and obstacles, and there are restrictions on the cave of Kongxuan Sanren. It is impossible for everyone to enter the cave to obtain inheritance.
"So, Under such circumstances, I would like to ask fellow Taoist Gu to accompany me on this journey - all the gains we make together will be shared equally. I wonder if Daoyou Gu is willing to agree? "
As soon as Chen Yanping finished speaking, Shangguan Jin's eyes fell on Gu Xu, as if looking forward to what answer he would give.
Gu Xu remained silent.
He must admit that compared to Shangguan Jin's layers of tricks, Chen Yanping's straightforward way of speaking sounds more relaxed.
But the problem is, if he agrees to Chen Yanping. , it will definitely make Shangguan Jin unhappy.
Gu Xu sighed silently.
He just wanted to stay low-key today. In the corner, I don’t want to get involved in this kind of thing.
Oh, why am I so charming?
………
It’s just that. , at this moment, another person came to Gu Xu's side.
It was a girl with a slightly chubby face and an unattractive appearance.
It was Xiang Gu who met a few days ago. Xu asked "Qingluan" Du Jingjing for advice on Fu Dao.
As soon as she saw Gu Xu, she couldn't wait to say to Gu Xu: "Gu Taoist friend, I finally found you!" I heard that the ruins of Mount Laoshan were much more dangerous than I thought, so I wanted to find someone to go with me. The first thing I thought of was Gu Daoyou.
"Of course, Fellow Daoist Gu is much stronger than me... I may need to rely on Fellow Daoist Gu's help many times. So for everything we gain, Fellow Daoist Gu, you can choose first and use the remaining scraps. Just leave the leftovers to me.
“With my cultivation...as long as I can return safely, I will be satisfied. ”
Why is there another person who wants to cooperate with Gu Xu?
This guy... is so popular?
Shangguan Jin’s face gradually changed You have to calm down.
She was the one who came first today...
I thought I could easily get there first.
Who could have expected it? How could things turn out like this?
…………
As for Gu Xu, standing among the three of them, he sighed silently:
Alas, " The monks in Shenji Camp are not good at it, so it would be easier to stay in Yishui County.
