Chapter 504: The Rain Comes

The building boat with the flag of the "Gongsun" family came slowly, and in the viewing cabin on the second floor, there were a table of heroes sitting at a table drinking and chatting happily.

Holding a wine glass, Gongsunxiu entertained the six newly recruited talented people with a smile. These six people's cultivation bases are not bad, and two of them are at the peak level of refining gods, enough for the Gongsun family to treat them as honored guests.

And what Gongsunxiu paid most attention to was the old Taoist who claimed to be Taoist Qinggu. .

Warriors are good at fighting to the death, but searching for graveyards is not their forte.

Those who understand Feng Shui are either Taoist priests or warlocks. Most of the former are liars, and the latter are rare in the world.

And that Qinggu Daoist, Gongsunxiu, has already tried the water, and indeed knows the art of geomancy, and also knows a thing or two about the formation.

"Exploring the Nanshan Tomb tonight depends entirely on you."

Gongsunxiu raised her glass with a smile.

The martial artist hurriedly toasted at the banquet, knowing that Miss Gongsun was speaking politely. The Gongsun family is one of the most powerful local snakes in Yongzhou. It has been passed down for more than 300 years.

There is only one step away from the fourth rank. Once he is promoted to the fourth rank, he will be the overlord in the rivers and lakes.

In addition, the seventh-rank Alchemy God and sixth-rank copper-skinned iron bones, the Gongsun family exceeds the number of hands.

However, this generation of the Gongsun family is talking about the eldest lady in front of her. She has a beautiful appearance, wearing a moon-white Chinese dress with wide sleeves and double breasts, and a pleated loose skirt on her lower body.

Beautiful and elegant, like a well-educated lady.

But those who are familiar with this eldest lady know that this woman has a high level of cultivation and just entered Huajin last year. In the Gongsun family, only the head of the family can overwhelm her.

In addition, she also made great achievements in business, and the property of the Gongsun family is thriving under her management. As a power in the world, the Gongsun family respects martial arts, even if it is a woman, it can also sit as the head of the family.

There are as many young heroes in Yongzhou who are willing to be the son-in-law of the Gongsun family.

After drinking a cup, everyone continued to enjoy delicious food and fat crabs. Gongsunxiu had no appetite, so she looked sideways at the scenery on the lake and at the boats, large or small, around her.

Looking at the "Wangji Yufang" that was getting closer, I saw a few full-fledged children running out of the cabin to play on the deck.

"We eat ours."

After Xu Qi'an said something, he turned his gaze back and gnawed on the crab's legs.

He plans to go to the underground palace tonight, find the mummy to borrow nails, venom, and corpse aura, and squeeze the wool of the thousand-year-old corpse.

However, the actions of the Gongsun family gave him some headaches. If they continue to make such a big show, the more noise they make, the more people will die.

Below the third grade, in front of the remains of the mysterious Taoist, how is it different from a chicken and a dog?

Waiting for the ancient corpse to grab more and more essence and blood, thus accumulating strength to break the seal, will surely bring disaster to one side.

When a country is about to perish, there will be evildoers, and all aspects are confirming this sentence! Xu Qi'an sighed in his heart.

There was a silver bell-like laughter from outside the window. Looking sideways, it was a few children who had eaten enough crabs playing outside, chasing and frolicking along the aisle outside the cabin.

The clothes they wear are pretty good, with high-quality fabrics, and they presumably come from well-to-do families, but they are quite different from the rich and powerful.

While chasing, a child with a thick head and a thick head tried to get in the way and jostled the girl in front.

The girl lost her balance and fell towards the lake screaming.

Xu Qi'an put down the crab legs in his hand, his eyes glowed brightly, and his body disappeared abruptly. The next moment, he came out from the shadow of the little girl and grabbed the little girl by the back collar.

The shadow of the dark gu jumps.

"Wow"

Several children around looked at him with admiration.

Xu Qi'an backhanded a scalp, shaved off one each, and taught: "Go back to the cabin, if you dare to come out to mess around again, I will beat you to death."

The tone of speech has a strong Jianghu style.

The boat of "Wangji Yufang" is also used as a fishing boat. In order to facilitate the pulling of fishing nets, there is no guardrail on the deck, which is not very safe.

After being beaten, the children didn't dare to talk back, and walked away in despair.

He then returned to the cabin, and not long after he sat down, a couple came over, the woman was holding a child in her hand, it was the little girl who almost fell into the lake just now.

"Thank you brother for saving me."

The young man bowed his hands in thanks. He was very well-dressed in a popular long gown.

The little woman even wore a gold step shaker on her head.

Xu Qi'an waved his hand and said impatiently: "Don't talk nonsense, you have invited this table of crabs."

The young man was taken aback, but heaved a sigh of relief, and said with a smile, "It should, it should."

I thanked you a few more times and went back with a smile on my face.

The little girl was dragged away by her mother, and suddenly she turned her head and made a face at the irritable and strange sorghum.

"What’s wrong with you?"

Mu Nanzhi felt that his mood was a little weird.

Xu Qi'an said angrily: "What the hell, it's going to rain."

The mood suddenly changed very bad.

Mu Nanzhi blinked her beautiful eyes, and looked out the window. The sun was shining brightly. Where was there any sign of rain?

On the other side, Gongsunxiu, who witnessed the whole process, had a flash of light in his eyes, and said:

"Everyone, does anyone see how he shot just now?"

The vulgar warriors frowned and looked at each other, they didn't notice the scene just now.

When Gongsunxiu finished speaking, she immediately showed astonishment, because everyone was well-informed and couldn't tell why.

It was an old Taoist priest with a goat beard who mused:

"According to Missy's description, it should be the method of the Gu Clan's Dark Gu Department. When Pindao traveled to southern borders in his early years, he saw their methods. They are good at jumping out of the shadows, elusive and unpredictable, and they are hard to guard against. Only a warrior in the realm of refining gods can restrain them." .”

Gongsunxiu frowned and said, "Can the methods of the Gu clan be passed on to the outside world?"

"Of course not."

"That person is not from southern Xinjiang." Gongsun Xiu said.

The old Taoist Qinggu was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said: "Then maybe the old Taoist guessed wrong?"

Gongsunxiu didn't hesitate, she got up immediately, and said with a smile: "I met an expert by chance, the little girl went over to say hello, everyone is easy."

She grabbed two chopsticks and shook them out.

The two chopsticks pierced into the lake, and then slowly emerged. Gongsunxiu jumped out from the cabin on the second floor. She flew across the lake as light as a weightless feather, and her toes touched the two chopsticks. The chopsticks sank slightly. It's a slight ripple.

But she used her strength to plunder several tens of feet, and landed firmly on the deck of "Wang Ji Yufang".

In the distance and near, all the tourists who saw this scene applauded.

Xu Qi'an also noticed this scene, but he didn't realize that this beautiful woman was looking for him, so he took the time to comment:

"It's not bad, it's considered powerful in the Five-Rank Huajin, and its kung fu is very handsome."

The princess is very envious of this ability to fly around.

If she had such means, she wouldn't ride a horse, and her ass wouldn't be sore.

Gongsunxiu entered the cabin, glanced at the diners in the cabin, and quickly locked onto Xu Qian's table, walked over with a smile on her face, and clasped her fists gracefully:

"Little girl Gongsunxiu, I don't know the name of her brother Gao."

Xu Qi'an looked at her and responded, "Xu Qian."

He changed Xu to Xu, and Qi'an to "Qian".

Gongsun Xiu said with a smile: "I am honored to meet Brother Xu, the little girl is very happy."

It's too early for you to rejoice. Xu Qi'an complained angrily, then restrained his irritable emotions, and said lightly:

"Miss Gongsun, what's the matter?"

Gongsun Xiu took advantage of the situation and said: "If you don't mind, can I ask Brother Xu to move to Gongsun's house and talk about it?"

She looked at the big ship flying the "Gongsun" flag.

Xu Qi'an's heart moved, he was worried that Gongsun's family's exploration of the underground palace would help the ancient corpse unlock the seal, so he immediately nodded:

"good!"

Turning to the princess, she said, "You wait for me here."

Mu Nanzhi glanced at Gongsunxiu sideways, and with the posture of a willow, he looked away and nodded reassuringly: "Oh."

Gongsunxiu, who was labeled as the "Pose of Pu Liu" by Dafeng's first beauty, smiled brightly and said:

"please!"

When the two of them got out of the cabin, Gongsun Xiu said, "I'll send someone to send a small boat over here."

After finishing speaking, she heard the plain-looking young man in Tsing Yi shake her head and say, "You just go back."

Gongsunxiu didn't talk nonsense, nodded briskly, and showed off his posture again, with his toes pointing on the two chopsticks, light as goose feathers, swept dozens of feet, and returned to the deck of his own building smoothly.

As soon as Fang settled down, she seemed to have sensed something, turned around suddenly, and saw a black shadow emerge from her own shadow, turning into a young man in Tsing Yi.

Are they really from the Gu clan? Gongsunxiu said calmly: "Brother Xu is a good method."

Xu Qi'an nodded indifferently, and under the guidance of Gongsun Xiu, he entered the cabin and came to the observation hall on the second floor.

The hall is not big, decorated with antique flavors, sitting at the round table are five energetic men, and an old Taoist priest wearing an old taoist robe.

The six people either looked sideways, or turned their heads to look over, with scrutiny in their eyes.

Gongsun Xiu smiled and introduced Xu Qi'an to everyone.

"Where is Brother Xu from?" A man in Qi training asked.

"People from the capital." Xu Qi'an said.

The warriors who had no interest in him at first, their eyes lit up, and they said with a smile: "Have you seen Xu Yinluo?"

Xu Qi'an took his seat and responded, "I've met you a few times."

Gongsun Xiu heard the words and joined the topic with interest:

"I heard that Xu Yinluo is personable, a rare handsome man in the world."

Xu Yinluo's deeds and legends had already been heard too much. As an unmarried woman, she was even more curious and interested in the appearance of that legendary figure.

Xu Qi'an pondered for a while, and sighed: "He is the man with the best appearance I have ever seen. Every time I see him, I can't help feeling that the sky is unfair."

His appearance is the best. Gongsun Xiu's eyelashes trembled, and he muttered to himself, "What a strange man."

Damn it, I still haven't changed my bragging stink, and I can't forget the lessons learned from the fragments of the underground book. Xu Qi'an reflected on himself.

Next, there was a flattery around Xu Yinluo. All the warriors admired the famous Xu Yinluo extremely, and bluntly said that without Xu Yinluo, there would be no great worship.

The feat of killing the king has already spread to Yongzhou, which is not far from the capital.

Gongsun Xiu ended the topic with some unfinished business, and said:

"Brother Xu, how long have you been in Yongzhou? Have you heard about the big tomb that has been raging recently? The Gongsun family is recruiting capable people and strangers to explore the tomb together.

"The little girl sees Brother Xu's superb skills, and wants to invite Brother Xu to explore the tomb together."

The warriors at the table remained silent and had no objection to this. The tomb is dangerous, and it would be great to have someone to share the pressure.

If the strength is strong, it is only natural to have a share of the pie. If the strength is weak, no one is to blame for dying in the tomb.

Xu Qi'an didn't agree immediately, but asked in a deep voice:

"How much do you know about the underground tomb?"

Gongsun Xiu said:

"The hunter in the mountain was the first to discover the tomb. He accidentally fell into the collapsed cave and found a tomb in the belly of the mountain. Then the news came from Yongzhou City.

"Actually, before the Gongsun family closed Nanshan, many people from all walks of life went to the tomb to explore, but none of them could come back. After the Gongsun family got the news, they organized people to go to the tomb, and they also lost contact.

"However, we discovered that the tomb is made of green gang stones, with extremely high specifications, and there must be heavy treasures inside."

The biggest treasure there has been taken away by me, and only a thousand-year-old corpse remains. Xu Qi'an said:

"This tomb is very dangerous. The martial artist doesn't know feng shui and formation methods, so he entered it rashly. It's more dangerous than good. Miss, think twice."

Gongsunxiu smiled, did not speak, but looked at the old Taoist Qinggu.

The old Taoist stroked his beard and smiled: "According to the observation of the poor Taoist, this tomb has undergone a terrible collapse due to its long history. There are formations inside, and they are broken in sevens and eights. Maybe there are still some dangers left. The previous batches People should die from the few dangers.

"So this time, the Gongsun family took the lead and organized us to go to the tomb together, and everyone can share a share."

Xu Qi'an looked at the beautiful young lady of the Gongsun family, and said:

"When are you going to visit the tomb?"

Gongsun Xiu said: "Tonight."

Tonight, I just want to use this group of people to explore the road first, feel the condition of the ancient corpse, and see how much of its strength has recovered Xu Qi'an knows that it is impossible to dispel the yearning of these people from the rivers and lakes for the tomb with just a few words of his own .

He twirled the wine glass, pretending to hesitate, and said helplessly:

"I don't have much talent and learning, so I won't join in the fun. Thank you, Miss, for your hospitality. But I still want to persuade you all, this tomb is dangerous. If you encounter an unsolvable crisis, you must read aloud: Have you forgotten the agreement with that person! "

Everyone was taken aback.

He looked at Gongsunxiu again, and said, "Miss, please take me back."

Gongsunxiu couldn't hide his disappointment, so he arranged for someone to prepare a boat for him and take him back to "Wangji Yufang".

Xu Qi'an got up and left the table, walked to the stairs, turned around, and said with a smile:

"It's going to rain soon, and it's raining in autumn. When visiting the tomb tonight, remember to bring rain gear. Farewell, everyone."

He went downstairs along the stairs, amid the sound of thumping footsteps, a martial artist who practiced Qi curled his lips, and said with a sneer: "Miss is eye-catching this time, and invited a coward."

"It's just cowardly, and you're still playing tricks. Any agreement, any rain, are all excuses to save face."

All the warriors shook their heads one after another, with teasing and mocking comments.

If you are afraid, you will be afraid, but this person is not only timid, but for the sake of face, he even said some mysterious words to fool people.

Gongsunxiu shook his head, raised his glass and said, "Drink."

She was also full of disappointment, just now that person's conversation and temperament were different from those of ordinary people in the world.

Everyone put this episode behind them and continued to chat and drink. After an unknown period of time, they suddenly heard the sound of "papa", and the warriors, including Gongsun Xiu, looked at the lake in astonishment.

Dense ripples bloomed on the surface of the lake, the heavy rain fell, and the autumn was cool.

This. Gongsun Xiu's eyes widened.

In the hall, it was instantly quiet.
