Chapter 185 Taking Flowers
night.
Gu Qianbei infiltrated Chongyang Palace and found a young Quanzhen Taoist priest on duty. With a single Soul Transfer Technique, the priest was controlled before he even saw Gu Qianbei's face.
"This soul-shifting technique is really useful. When it comes to moving from above to below, it's basically complete control."
Gu Qianbei clicked his tongue in amazement, then asked the young Taoist priest about the Quanzhen Inner Strength Method, erased his memories of this period, and drifted away.
The young Taoist priest thought he had just taken a nap and had no idea that he had just been tricked into revealing his incantation.
Back in the ancient tomb, Gu Qianbei taught the incantation to Xiaolongnu and Li Mochou, and the two immediately couldn't wait to practice the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra.
"Big brother, although there are rules in our ancient tomb that men are not allowed to enter, you have done us a great favor, so you should rest in the ancient tomb tonight."
And this Miss Ling Su, please come in as well.
When Xiaolongnu extended an invitation, Gu Qianbei and Cheng Lingsu naturally accepted without hesitation.
The two then entered the ancient tomb together.
The ancient tomb was built against the mountain and contained many secret passages and mechanisms.
If you wander off randomly, you are very likely to get lost.
So, after instructing the two not to wander off, Xiaolongnu went with Li Mochou to the stone chamber to cultivate the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra.
Grandma Sun was left behind to take care of the two of them.
If you want to grab a late-night snack, you can prepare some.
However, Gu Qianbei did not have this need, so she asked Granny Sun to go and rest first.
"Lingsu, you've had a busy day, you should get some rest too."
Looking at the gentle young man before her, Cheng Lingsu recalled the heartbreaking palm technique he had displayed earlier that day, and a wave of pity washed over her.
"Brother Gu, have you experienced something very sad in the past? Is that why you can use such a sorrowful palm technique?"
Unable to suppress her heartache for Gu Qianbei, Cheng Lingsu couldn't help but ask.
"If you're unhappy about anything, you can tell me, and I'll definitely help you."
Gu Qianbei was stunned when he saw Cheng Lingsu, who was slightly excited.
What's on this girl's mind?
Does he think he's some kind of broken, handsome guy?
He may be handsome, but he truly lacks a sense of brokenness.
Oh, right.
The enhancement from the Ecstasy Palm technique must be too exaggerated.
The impact on Cheng Lingsu, who witnessed the whole thing, was enormous.
Thinking of this, Gu Qianbei smiled and said, "Ling Su, that's just a palm technique; it doesn't mean anything."
Actually, I'm a sunny and cheerful guy, and I never suffer from internal conflict.
"Internal strife?"
Cheng Lingsu didn't understand.
"It means that he never criticizes himself internally, but only criticizes others externally."
In short, don't worry, I'm fine.
Seeing Gu Qianbei say this, Cheng Lingsu felt a little relieved.
But I still have some worries in my heart.
She thought to herself that there was still a long time ahead, and she would gradually discover the sadness hidden behind Gu Qianbei's cheerfulness.
She will definitely comfort him properly when the time comes.
Silent all night.
Xiaolongnu and Li Mochou had cultivated the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra to such an extent that they were oblivious to the nature of heaven and earth, and their progress was extremely rapid.
As a result, neither of them wanted to leave the ancient tomb; they just wanted to master the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra as soon as possible.
By then, they will at least be able to break through to the late stage of Grandmaster, if not the Grandmaster level.
Seeing that the two had been practicing for more than a day or two, Gu Qianbei decided to take Cheng Lingsu ahead of him.
"Are you leaving?"
When Li Mochou learned that the two were leaving, a look of reluctance and a hint of wariness appeared in her eyes.
If Cheng Lingsu continues to follow Gu Qianbei, wouldn't that be a bit unfortunate?
Will the two of them develop feelings for each other over time?
"I've bothered you for several days now, it's time for me to leave."
Lingsu and I still need to go to Wuliang Mountain. We'll come back to see you after we've finished our business."
Gu Qianbei said with a smile.
"What if I insist on keeping you here?"
Li Mochou suddenly spoke.
"Um?"
Gu Qianbei was stunned for a moment when faced with these domineering words.
The others were stunned when they heard this.
"Then you can't beat me."
Gu Qianbei said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Li Mochou angrily retorted, "Once I master the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra, you might not be my match!"
"Then I look forward to the day you master the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra. Then we'll have a proper contest."
"You just wait!"
Gu Qianbei eventually left with Cheng Lingsu.
Li Mochou watched Gu Qianbei's departing figure, her heart filled with mixed emotions.
"Senior sister, do you like older brothers?"
Little Dragon Girl asked.
"I liked him ten years ago. But for some reason, after I went out for a while, I lost all my memories of him."
Otherwise, why would I have taken a liking to Lu Zhanyuan?
Looking back now, I realize that Lu Zhanyuan and I met at that lake.
That moment of overlapping memories made me feel good about Lu Zhanyuan.
Actually, from the very beginning, the relationship between Lu Zhanyuan and me was a mistake.
Li Mochou spoke slowly.
"I see. But would someone like you, Big Brother, stay in an ancient tomb?"
"He didn't stay in the ancient tomb, so I went out of the ancient tomb to find him."
Judging from his appearance, he's much more popular with women than Lu Zhanyuan.
Once I've mastered the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra and defeated him, I'll make sure he's always by my side, never to leave me!
Li Mochou clenched her fists, a hint of obsession flashing in her eyes.
Forced love is her defining characteristic, and I'm afraid she won't change it easily.
However, Gu Qianbei's strength is worlds apart from Lu Zhanyuan's.
Even if Li Mochou mastered the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra, she would probably still find it difficult to achieve her goal.
Looking at Li Mochou's expression, Xiaolongnu's face remained unreadable.
She turned to look in the direction Gu Qianbei had descended the mountain, thinking to herself, "Now, can I go down the mountain too?"
……
Gu Qianbei and Cheng Lingsu left Zhongnan Mountain and headed towards Wuliang Mountain.
"Judging by the time, the Golden Lotus Flower should be almost ready."
"We'll return to the capital, retrieve this flower, and brew new wine."
On the way, Gu Qianbei thought of this matter and decided to first find a place to open a new branch of Qianchou Si, and then use the wine trail to return to the capital.
He's not short of money now, so opening a branch store is naturally not a big problem for him.
So Gu Qianbei opened a Qianchou Si restaurant in a small town near Zhongnan Mountain as quickly as possible.
The shop is open during the day, but the people disappear at night.
In the blink of an eye, Gu Qianbei changed into the Qianchousi Guardian Set and arrived at the Beijing branch.
He went directly to Yunhe Temple without alerting anyone.
Yunhe Temple remained as quiet as ever, with no one else present except for the monks of the temple.
After entering Yunhe Temple, Gu Qianbei changed back into her original attire and used the Phoenix Dance Six Illusions technique to quickly travel between places, soon arriving in front of Master Jianchi's meditation room.
"Amitabha, Benefactor Gu has arrived very punctually."
Master Jianchi was chanting sutras, and the golden lotus flower in front of him had turned golden, looking extremely dazzling.
"I have already troubled the master for so long, how could I dare to be late?"
Gu Qianbei bowed slightly.
