For Xu Taiping, no matter how Gu Yu chose, it wouldn’t have much of a big impact on his Dragon-Slaying Conference this time.
So he only needed Gu Yu to give him an answer.
Although some people are pitiful, and Xu Taiping is also willing to give him a hand, but if he really can’t be pulled up, he won’t force it.
Beside, Dongfang Yuejian heard Xu Taiping ask so directly, worried that this Gu Yu would faint from fear again because he didn’t know how to choose, so she gently pulled the corner of Xu Taiping’s clothes.
Seeing that Gu Yu was still like this, Xu Taiping’s heart trembled and he was about to give up.
But before he could say the words, he saw that Gu Yu suddenly stood up straight and said with extremely firm eyes:
“Immortal, I have already thought it through!”
Xu Taiping was a little surprised, but quickly asked with a calm expression:
“What have you thought through?”
Gu Yu replied with a resolute tone:
“Please teach me that set of saber techniques, Immortal. I want to avenge Mr. Hongli with my own hands and kill those eight villains in Bahao Valley!”
A smile appeared on Xu Taiping’s face, and he reached out and gently patted Gu Yu’s shoulder and said:
“You will never regret this decision today.”
Gu Yu nodded heavily, and then with a “plop”, he kowtowed to Xu Taiping and said:
”Master, please accept your disciple’s bow!”
Xu Taiping was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head and said:
”It’s still too early to take you as a disciple. Get up first.”
Although he didn’t have the intention of accepting disciples yet, for some reason, he wasn’t very disgusted with Gu Yu’s call of “Master”.
After Gu Yu stood up with a scared look on his face, Xu Taiping said seriously:
”If you really want to worship me as your master, you can make a decision after avenging your husband, Hong Li.”
This was both a test for Gu Yu and a way to make him choose carefully.
The matter of worshiping a master is no joke.
Seeing that Xu Taiping didn’t completely reject him, Gu Yu’s face immediately lit up, and he nodded and said:
”Thank you, Immortal!”
However, as soon as these words were spoken, Gu Yu’s stomach “gurgled”.
Not only Gu Yu, but also the three of Xu Taiping who had just eaten steamed buns felt hungry at this time.
Gu Yu rubbed his hands, and then gritted his teeth and said:
”Three Immortals, I’ll go and slaughter that stubborn donkey outside the courtyard now!”
As if hearing Gu Yu’s words, the donkey tied outside the courtyard suddenly “neighed”.
Seeing the donkey’s miserable braying, Xu Taiping took out the bag of copper coins he had received as a reward earlier from his sleeve and handed it directly to Gu Yu:
“Take this money and go buy more rice, flour, vegetables, and meat. Since we’re going to teach you how to use a knife, we might have to stay in your small courtyard for a while.”
Seeing this, Gu Yu quickly waved his hand and said:
“This won’t do. How could an old man like me use the money of an immortal like you!”
On the side, Dongfang Yuejian couldn’t stand it any longer and directly stuffed the bag of money in Xu Taiping’s hand into Gu Yu’s arms:
“Don’t dawdle. It’s almost dark. Ride your little donkey and go buy the things.”
As if remembering something, she immediately added:
“Oh, by the way, remember to check if there are any horses for sale in the town and see what the price is.”
None of them could use their magical powers now. If they really wanted to take revenge in Bahao Valley, it definitely wouldn’t work to just walk on their feet.
Although Gu Yu was still a bit hesitant, he didn’t dare to refuse Dongfang Yuejian and immediately nodded and said:
“The old man will go and ask right away!”
……
A moment later.
As soon as Gu Yu left, Dongfang Yuejian immediately looked at Xu Taiping with a confused expression and said:
“Brother Taiping, why do you have to make that Gu Yu take revenge himself? Wouldn’t it be faster if we did it ourselves?”
While walking back to the old well again, Xu Taiping replied:
“Old Jiang also said earlier that the key to winning the Dragon-Slaying Conference lies in how far the dragon-catcher can grow.” ”
Xuanzhi also asked with a confused look on his face at this time:
”If Gu Yu were dozens of years younger, Brother Taiping, what you did might indeed allow him to experience growth, but at Gu Yu’s current age, I’m afraid it will be a thankless task.”
Dongfang Yuejian nodded and said:
“Master Xuanzhi is right. It is indeed very important to help the dragon catchers experience and grow, but at present, Gu Yu is old. Brother Taiping, it is indeed a bit hasty for you to hand over such a heavy burden to him.”
Dongfang Yuejian frowned and then continued:
“In case he dies in the battle with those eight villains, according to the rules of the Dragon Slaying Club, our team will be directly out.”
Xu Taiping naturally knew what they were worried about.
So he took back his gaze from the bottom of the old well, turned around, and smiled at the two people and said:
“Miss Yuejian, Master Xuanzhi, I have just checked Gu Yu’s bone structure. Indeed, he has an extraordinary talent.”
Dongfang Yuejian still didn’t think much of it and said:
“Even if he has an extraordinary talent, Brother Taiping, you asked him to learn a saber technique within such a short time and then go and seek revenge from the eight evil people in Bahao Valley.”
“The time spent on this before and after, it will take at least three to five years, right?”
Xu Taiping didn’t say anything.
Dongfang Yuejian thought her words had awakened Xu Taiping, so she continued:
“In three to five years, I’m afraid that not only will the team from Jiuyuan help Pang Zhong solve the problem of the army besieging the city, but they may even have helped him find all the opportunities and his combat power to the peak.
The duration of the Dragon-Slaying Society is indeed much longer than that of the other few societies, but it is at most three to five years within the Burial Immortal Ruins.
Xu Taiping didn’t answer this question, but instead asked Dongfang Yuejian:
“Miss Yuejian, you should know what is meant by the bone of a god and a human, right?”
Dongfang Yuejian casually replied:
“Naturally I know.”
But as soon as these words came out of her mouth, she saw that her whole person was stunned there. After a while, she looked at Xu Taiping in disbelief and asked:
Brother Taiping, could it be that Gu Yu is born with the different bones of a god and a human? “!”
Xu Taiping nodded and said:
“If my judgment is correct, he indeed has the posture of the heterobone of a god and a human that is rare to see in hundreds of thousands of years.
After getting Xu Taiping’s confirmation, Dongfang Yuejian still had a look of disbelief on her face, her brows were tightly furrowed, as if she was thinking about something, shaking her head and whispering to herself:
Born with the heterobone of a god and a human, not to mention in this age of the end of the Dharma even in the time of the Five Emperors or even the Human Emperor, it was extremely rare.”
“How could such peerless bone roots appear in this mundane world of only mortals? This is not in line with common sense!”
The Mysterious Knowledge Master beside him, although also with a look of astonishment on his face but soon his complexion calmed down, and then he said thoughtfully:
“The Immortal Burial Ruins have locked the dragon clan and the luck of tens of millions of ordinary people for hundreds of thousands of years. This luck cannot disappear out of thin air and must be placed on some existence.”
When he said this, the Mysterious Knowledge Master raised his head and looked towards the direction where Gu Yu left with burning eyes and said:
If Gu Yu really has the bones of a god and a human, then he must be one of the existences where this fortune is placed!
