The Legend of the Condor Heroes: I became one of the Five Great Masters by drawing cards

Chapter 148 Enemies meet on a narrow road
Thanks?
Gu Ping'an paused holding the wine glass, slightly surprised.

"What do you mean, Brother Yang?"

"Yang Kang used to be greedy and vain, treating a thief as his father and acting in a treacherous and cunning way. Not only do others know this, but I myself know it too."

Yang Kang raised his head, drank the wine in the glass and smiled.

"I nearly caused disaster several times. If it weren't for Brother Gu's repeated efforts to solve the problem, I'm afraid it would be difficult to turn back."

Gu Ping'an seemed to be thinking about something, and drank the wine in the glass calmly, which was considered as accepting his gratitude.

Seeing this scene, Yang Kang felt relieved and happy.

"Brother Yang, have you ever thought about whether you would be in the same situation today if you and Brother Guo switched places?"

"Perhaps. I was born a high and mighty 'little prince'. No one tells me what is right and what is wrong. I always feel that luxury and comfort are mine."

Yang Kang felt a little emotional, but he didn't show any regrets.

"But there's nothing wrong with it now. I can focus on cultivating the Dao and not think about imperial power and wealth. It's much easier."

Gu Ping'an nodded gently: "Brother Yang, it seems that you have really let go of what you said today. If you have the chance in the future, go down the mountain to visit Yang Da and his father-in-law and mother-in-law. They miss you very much too."

"must!"

Yang Kang felt warm in his heart when he thought of his mother.

"Since you have sincerely acknowledged your ancestry, I should follow the rules and call you 'brother'."

"My brother-in-law is polite!"

The three of them chatted happily until they finished the whole pot of wine.

The heavy snow on the third day of the Lunar New Year has not melted yet, and heavy snow fell from the sky two days ago.

The silver light shines brightly for thousands of miles, and the distant mountains are covered with white dew and slightly green.

The mountain roads leading up to and from Chongyang Palace are already rugged and difficult to travel on, and have always been sparsely populated. After two heavy snowfalls, it is even more deserted.

Just as the two of them were going down the mountain, they heard a noise ahead.

"Girl! I really don't know anyone else! Ouch!"

What followed was a series of screams, accompanied by the sound of rustling snow.

Gu Ping'an and Mu Nianci quickened their pace, walked around a rock, and their vision became wider.

I saw a young man in fox fur coat slipping and falling, screaming in fear. Behind him, a girl in yellow skirt holding a sharp sword was chasing him in the snow.

The girl's dress swayed in the wind, obviously a thin summer outfit.

In this cold winter when water turns to ice, she is dressed like this and feels the wind blowing under her feet, without feeling the cold at all.

Gu Ping'an saw at a glance that the girl was using the Ancient Tomb School's light skills, and immediately guessed her identity and that of the fox-fur gentleman.

The first fuse of The Return of the Condor Heroes——Lu Zhanyuan!

"Isn't that Miss Mochou?"

Mu Nianci obviously recognized Li Mochou, and seeing that she seemed to be fighting with someone, she naturally wanted to help.

"She's after that man. No matter why, we have to go and see."

Gu Ping'an was about to take her on a detour, but this was the only way down the mountain, and he couldn't think of a reasonable excuse.

The Tomb School's Qinggong was famous for its speed. Lu Zhanyuan slipped and fell, rolling and crawling all the way. He finally managed to steady himself and was caught up by her in the blink of an eye.

"That little thief said you were his good friend. It's not that easy to deceive me!"

She kicked Lu Zhanyuan over, unsheathed her sword, and pointed it at his throat.

"Tell me! Where is Gu?"

Although Lu Zhanyuan had some martial arts skills, he was no match for Li Mochou. He lay on the snow pile, coughing twice, and felt like crying but had no tears.

"Hero Ping An has been ridding the people of harm. Although I have known him for a long time, I have only just met him once."

"What nonsense? We have been spiritual friends for a long time, doesn't that mean we have known each other for a long time? Stop playing tricks in front of the girl, or I will kill you with one sword!" Although Li Mochou could read, she had not read many books, so she didn't understand much of what she heard.

Since she suffered a loss at the hands of Gu Ping'an last time, she has become even more vigilant.

"Miss Mochou, what are you doing?"

Li Mochou turned around when she heard the voice and saw Mu Nianci. She was about to say hello when she suddenly saw Gu Ping'an beside her and immediately got furious.

"Gu! How dare you come here!"

She was a bit extreme by nature, and was particularly jealous when she saw her enemies. She turned the sword tip, flashed and killed them, used the move of Wandering Around the World, and swung the sword straight.

Mu Nianci didn't expect her to suddenly attack, and subconsciously dodged in front of Gu Ping'an.

She had been practicing the Tianshan Zhemei Hand these days. Her left hand stretched out as fast as lightning, and she actually grasped the tip of the sword with her thumb and index finger.

"Miss Mu, don't stop me!"

Li Mochou cried out and shook her wrist rapidly, trying to take the sword back.

But Mu Nianci was faster. Without loosening her two fingers, she moved forward and lightly flicked the Taiyuan acupoint on her right wrist, which was holding the sword.

This move seemed ordinary, but its clever power was even better than the Orchid Finger Technique from Peach Blossom Island. Li Mochou only felt a numbness in his hand, and the five fingers holding the hilt of the sword loosened immediately.

After taking the long sword, she continued her moves, pinching the tip of the sword, taking advantage of the momentum to spin and sweep sideways, turning over with the sword hanging.

The sword drew an arc in the air. Li Mochou was startled and used the Iron Bridge move to quickly dodge.

When she looked up again, Mu Nianci was standing behind her with a sword on her back, and a finger was pointing at the Tanzhong point on her chest.

After all, they knew each other for a while. With her normal personality, even if she took action, she would at least give him some face.

But Li Mochou was obviously coming for Gu Ping'an, and her attack was ruthless and merciless. In anger, she attacked with all her strength and subdued the heir of the Ancient Tomb Sect with just two or three moves.

"Miss Mu, you!"

Li Mochou was angry and annoyed, and felt aggrieved, with tears welling up in her eyes.

"Thank you girl for saving my life!"

Lu Zhanyuan climbed up in a panic, his body covered in snow and his fox fur coat draped askew over his shoulders.

Mu Nianci nodded lightly at him, then looked at Li Mochou, frowned and asked, "Miss Mochou, what are you doing?"

Li Mochou had lived in the ancient tomb for a long time and was still unfamiliar with worldly affairs. For a moment, she didn't know where to start.

It was Lu Zhanyuan who straightened his robe and began to explain.

"My name is Lu Zhanyuan, from Jiaxing. I happened to encounter a criminal at the foot of the mountain and tried to help him, but my martial arts skills were limited. I chased him all the way here and collapsed due to my injuries. It was thanks to Miss Mochou that she saved me."

"Rescue?" Mu Nianci was even more confused. "Since she saved you, why did she chase you?"

"I'm also very surprised. Miss Mochou took care of me for a few days until my injuries gradually healed. Today, she casually asked me my name."

Lu Zhanyuan had a bitter face and was equally confused.

"It would have been better if I hadn't said that. But when Miss Mochou heard the name 'Lu Zhanyuan', she immediately changed into a different person. She drew her sword and tried to kill me, and she kept asking me about the whereabouts of Hero Ping An."

"Hero Ping An?"

"This is the name given by the people. It refers to the hero Gu Ping'an who killed 462 people from the Yellow River Gang to eliminate harm to the people."

"Were you all fine the last time we met?" Mu Nianci looked back at Gu Ping'an blankly.

Upon hearing this, Lu Zhanyuan thought for a moment and exclaimed, "Could it be that you are the hero Ping An?"

"What's the point of being a hero or not?" Gu Ping'an smiled and waved his hand. "I'm a little older, so you can just call me Brother Gu."

"Hello, Brother Gu!"

Mu Nianci ignored the two of them and asked again, "Miss Mochou, is there any misunderstanding between you and my husband?"
