Chapter 159 Going to Death

"Actually, Senior Sister wanted us to leave this place before. Now may be the time."

"But if we leave, Grandma Gu..."

"It doesn't matter, Qingmu will ask Senior Sister to take care of our village."

Since Li Qingmu said so, Gu Youqing had no reason to refuse.

I have been in Baixia Town for a while, and I have seen everything that I should take the saint to see. The only thing I am worried about is the ancestral hall in Gujiacun and Grandma Gu, who has protected the ancestral hall all her life.

But Gu Youqing also knew that there was nothing he could do in today's crowded Baixia Town, and he would ultimately have to rely on Li Qingmu's power.

Gu Youqing naturally understood that Li Qingmu was worried about his own safety, so he proposed to leave.

"In that case, let's wait for a few days for Zhu'er to recover before we set off."

"Well, before leaving, Qingmu wants to go to the Gu family ancestral hall and offer an incense stick to her uncle and aunt."

Last time, because fellow Taoist Gu was in a bad mood, I had no chance to offer incense, which was a pity.

Now that the two of them have developed a close relationship, it is natural to meet his parents in another identity.

Even if it's just in the form of offering incense.

It's also a way to show them yourself.

"Then they must be quite happy to see the saint, thinking that Gu has made a difference."

Li Qingmu scolded him shyly and secretly, and had already thought about where to go next.

Since he has already seen Gu Daoyou's hometown, should he also let him see his own hometown?

Unlike Gu Youqing's Gujia Village, Li Qingmu's hometown was completely abandoned and now no one lives in it, leaving only a huge grassland.

The two agreed on a time and were preparing to meet Zhu'er.

Zhang Qianyan happened to walk downstairs.

Gu Youqing gave way very gentlemanly and said hello kindly: "Master Zhang."

But Zhang Qianyan, who usually bowed to him and Li Qingmu, today just glanced at Gu Youqing as he passed by, without saying a word or even saying hello.

The slightly cold eyes made Gu Youqing slightly startled.

Why? Have you done anything recently that makes Master Zhang annoying?

Li Qingmu was secretly happy, it seemed that Zhang Zhenren Xu had some friction with Gu Daoyou.

This is good, as it saves me from always being on tenterhooks. After all, that real person looks great with his hair down.

Gu Youqing was not the only one who was confused. Even the person involved, Zhang Qianyan, was confused.

Why do I always feel a faint sense of resentment in my heart when I see Mr. Gu today?

It can't be called hostility. In short, there is no longer the sense of intimacy as before. Instead, they feel that they are just passers-by who met each other by chance and only knew each other's names.

Something was not right, and she realized deeply that she was not like this before.

Zhang Qianyan gently stroked his forehead, frowning slightly.

"Have the recent troubles started to affect my mood?"

Zhang Qianyan let out a long sigh, feeling a little regretful for her rude behavior. If she treated others like this, I'm afraid the other party would also lose a good impression of her.

"Let's find an opportunity to explain it to Mr. Gu..."

She shook her head, her eyes became determined, and she flew towards Li Jing's house again.

Today, no matter what, she must ask for the truth!

Zhang Qianyan flew through the air very fast and arrived at Li Jing's house again in half an hour. The two master-level guards were already used to her uninvited appearance. Anyway, His Highness had told her not to do anything with her.

Don't let her in.

Loyal guards like them, who have been favored by the royal family since childhood, naturally fulfill His Highness's instructions.

So the two grandmasters tacitly ignored Zhang Qianyan and played chess outside the courtyard.

Zhang Qianyan stopped and said hello to the two seniors.

But they ignored Zhang Qianyan at all.

Zhang Qianyan sat quietly aside and watched the two old men playing chess.

Although the two guards are much higher than Zhang Qianyan, they are the true disciples of the current Dali Imperial Master after all, and their identities are as different as clouds and mud.

Being stared at by her so seriously, the two old men naturally felt uncomfortable all over.

The mentality was obvious on the chessboard. What was originally an evenly matched situation quickly turned into a mess as both sides made frequent mistakes.

Even Zhang Qianyan, who didn't know much about chess, could see that these two seniors were playing chess haphazardly.

She didn't say anything. It was polite to watch the chess without saying a word, not to mention that the opponent was still senior to her.

The two guards were helpless and finally sighed:

"I'm confused. I really can't play this game."

Hearing this, Zhang Qianyan thought that it was his presence that made the two seniors uncomfortable, so he said:

"Did the junior disturb the two seniors? I ask the two seniors to forgive me. The junior will leave now."

The two grandmaster guards looked at each other and finally left Zhang Qianyan behind:

"Master Zhang, please don't embarrass us."

"This junior has no such intention."

"In that case, why is Mr. Zhang watching chess here?"

"The junior thought to himself that maybe the two seniors had fun playing chess, so they would let the junior in."

"If we really do this, I'm afraid we will be imprisoned in the sky prison tomorrow and we will never see Mr. Zhang again."

"Senior still likes to joke. Junior Li Jing is still familiar with him. He will not treat the two seniors like this."

Good guys, the two masters couldn't help but twitch their beards.

Calling His Royal Highness the Crown Prince by his first name, this is the only one who dares to do so.

"I hope Master Zhang will understand that we are not unwilling to let people in, but there is really no other way."

Zhang Qianyan nodded, and she naturally understood the helplessness of the two seniors.

So she didn't push her way in, but said seriously:

"Junior knows, so I will wait here. You two seniors can just continue playing chess and ignore me."

But she was staring at him blankly, and it was hard to ignore her.

The two masters thought about it for a while, and finally relaxed a little, placed the already chaotic chessboard in front of Zhang Qianyan, and asked:

"Master Zhang, what did you see?"

"A chaotic chessboard without any structure."

The two masters nodded and continued to ask:

"In this case, does Mr. Zhang know why this situation occurs?"

"The junior was offended, and the two seniors' moods had some fluctuations just now."

The two masters showed a smile of relief as if they were teachable:

"Master Zhang, don't you understand this?"

Zhang Qianyan was stunned, as if he had caught something in his heart, but he was still a little uncertain:

"The younger generation is stupid, I hope the seniors will speak clearly."

The two masters restored the chessboard to its previous appearance and explained:

"We also know that Sir Zhang is here to cultivate the Langya sword, but Sir Zhang, please take a look."

In front of you is a chessboard with black and white competing against each other.

"Now this Baixia Town is just a huge chessboard, and the person who plays the chessboard, I don't need to explain it clearly, Master Zhang should also understand it."

Zhang Qianyan nodded. Now Baixia Town has an influx of forces from all sides, and there are many more players playing chess than there are on the chessboard.

"As a chess player, the most important thing is not to have a chaotic state of mind. People like me with poor concentration will never be able to be such a chess player in this life."

One of the masters took down a white chess piece and pointed at Zhang Qianyan:

"And you, Mr. Zhang, can't be worthy of it either."

"Senior, please teach me." Zhang Qianyan did not show displeasure, but asked for advice humbly.

The Grand Master thought seriously for a long time, thinking about how he could give this perseverant Master Zhang a lesson without being punished by His Highness.

"Master Zhang's master who is the best in the world, Master Guoshi, is one of the chess players, but Master Zhang can only become a certain move on this chessboard, and maybe it will be of great use at some point.

, but ultimately unable to command the overall situation.”

"Because Mr. Zhang, like us, is in a state of confusion at the moment. If we forcefully enter the game, the chessboard will inevitably turn into chaos like before."

"Presumably the Imperial Master also had such considerations, and that's why he didn't tell Master Zhang the truth."

Zhang Qianyan pursed his lips slightly and looked serious.

Does Master really think so?

Nowadays, those who play chess are only a few powerful forces.

1. The Dali royal family, and my master can be considered one of the forces in this area.

Second, Prince Li Jing, what does he want to do?

Three, the demon clan.

Fourth, the major holy places who came here in search of the innate spiritual treasure, although they have not participated in the struggle here, there is no guarantee that they will not come out to take a share of the pie when the situation becomes more chaotic.

Is my mentality really bad?

Zhang Qianyan suddenly remembered his indifference to Gu Youqing before going out.

Maybe Master is right.

"This junior probably understands. This junior wants to talk to Li Jing, and I would like to ask the two seniors to pass on a message for this junior."

The two grand masters were helpless, but they did not expect that they would not be able to convince the future national master.

They had no choice but to pass on the news.

The result is, of course, missing.

Zhang Qianyan did not wait any longer this time, but went straight back to the inn after being rejected.

After taking the green cow back to the backyard, she saw Gu Youqing who was feeding the geese with Green Bamboo.

Naturally, Lu Zhu wanted to express herself in front of Gu Youqing and wanted to know the secret in his mouth that even the saint didn't know, so she forced him to feed the geese together.

Seeing Zhang Qianyan walking towards the two of them, Lu Zhu first gave her a sharp blow as a warning, and then left first.

She naturally understood that this great Yin-Yang sorcerer in the late Nascent Soul stage came to see Gu, and he must have something to discuss.

From now on, she will learn from sister Xiaoxi and be a good maid.

Gu Youqing hesitated for a moment, then said hello to Zhang Qianyan.

"Zhenren Zhang."

Zhang Qianyan smiled, bowed and apologized:

"I had important matters to deal with earlier. Perhaps I neglected Young Master Gu. I would like to express my apology here."

Gu Youqing smiled and waved his hands, indicating that he didn't take it to heart.

After being treated like that by Zhang Qianyan before, he almost thought that this person knew what he had done to her in the simulation through some kind of spying magic.

Zhang Qianyan came to Gu Youqing this time. In addition to apologizing, he also wanted to ask him something.

"Since the last time I talked to Mr. Gu about the case of the warrior killing the Widow Wang, Pindao has been thinking about ways to break the situation day and night."

"After many days, Pindao has to admit that perhaps what Mr. Gu said is more reasonable."

"The abuse of strict laws will inevitably lead to some extreme atrocities. Although Pindao is quite unwilling to give a sexual order to a rapist, he has to admit that this will indeed reduce the probability of death of the victim."

"Thank you Mr. Gu for clarifying my doubts."

Zhang Qianyan saluted Gu Youqing solemnly.

Gu Youqing muttered haha and muffled it.

Zhang Qianyan continued to raise his own questions:

"Pindao has been thinking a lot lately. Today I take advantage of the opportunity to ask Mr. Gu, how to choose if you encounter a conflict between emotion and reason?"

"Real person means conscience and reason?"

"That's roughly what it means. Mr. Gu is right to understand it this way."

Gu Youqing thought for a moment and said seriously to Zhang Qianyan:

"Zhenren, Gu asked Zhenren a question."

"But it doesn't matter."

"Suppose one day, the real person and Gu have no cultivation, live in the desert and cannot find a source of water. At this time, two pots of water suddenly appear in front of us, one of which is pure water, and the other is a highly toxic liquid.

, and the real person happens to be able to see through the two pots of water which one is water and which one is venom. What choice will the real person make at this time?"

Zhang Qianyan was slightly stunned, but soon his eyes blanked, and he began to think seriously about Gu Youqing's question.

In other words, if she chooses water, Mr. Gu will drink the poison and die, but he will survive.

Doesn't seem very good.

And what if you choose the venom and leave the water to Mr. Gu?

It seems to be the correct answer, but if I really face this situation, do I really have the courage to risk my life to let Mr. Gu survive?

She thought she couldn't do it.

Just when she hesitated, Gu Youqing spoke:

"Sure enough, the real person is still kind-hearted. In fact, during the period of time when the real person was hesitating, Gu, who could also see through which pot of water was poisonous, had already drank the clear water first and would work hard to pour the other pot of poison into the real person.

throat."

Master Zhang suddenly raised his eyebrows and felt a little annoyed: "Mr. Gu, you are..."

But she didn't know what to be angry about. From the other party's point of view, he had done nothing wrong.

Gu Youqing continued:

"A real person, a decision will kill the real person's conscience, otherwise the conscience will kill the real person."

"Rationality and conscience, from the perspective of great justice, everyone will choose conscience, but when it comes to individuals, it is difficult to say."

Zhang Qianyan was stunned for a while, and it took him a long time to recover.

Finally laughed at myself:

"It turns out that this poor Taoist has wasted more than ten years practicing Taoism. He is not as thorough as Mr. Gu."

"It's just Gu's nonsense, it can't be taken seriously by real people."

"Master, please do not belittle yourself..."

…

Li Jing's house.

At that time, Jian Nandou, who was in jail, was sitting quietly, wiping his sword very seriously.

Li Jing stood beside him, pacing back and forth uneasily.

Seeing him like this, Jian Nandou felt upset and cursed: "Li Jing, stop turning around. I'm going to get dizzy if I turn around."

Li Jing did not get angry with him, but frowned and said: "The demon clan has put pressure on my father and asked me to hand you over to them."

Jian Nandou was not surprised, but laughed and said: "This is very good, it will allow our plan to proceed smoothly."
