Chapter 237 [Before the decisive battle]

August [-]th, two days before the Mid-Autumn Festival.

In the capital, the atmosphere before the Mid-Autumn Festival is already very strong. The mooncakes in various restaurants, restaurants and pastry shops have been sold out, and the air is full of the smell of sweet-scented osmanthus.

But compared to the atmosphere before the Mid-Autumn Festival, what was more intense was the atmosphere before the decisive battle.

Warriors from all over the capital have filled all the inn rooms that can be found in the capital. Even if a few people squeeze into one room, it is already impossible. Many people are forced to live in tea houses and restaurants. The only option is to compete with the beggars in the capital for territory.

From this, we can already see how hot the Mid-Autumn Festival is this time.

In the streets and alleys, it seems that every place is full of discussions about this decisive battle. Everyone is guessing at the final result of the decisive battle. Who will win? If there are more powerful people, I will simply list the names of Gu Yue'an and Cui Longlou. Historical records, based on their martial arts in each period, make detailed comparisons to make predictions.

These predictions were finally compiled into a book by well-informed people, and they were sold immediately after printing.

In addition to this, the most touching thing was the final confirmation list of the fifty places to enter the palace.

As for why there are fifty, not eighty, and not one hundred.

Naturally, it was stipulated by Gu Yue'an.

Originally, such regulations did not mean that there was any major problem. After all, too many outsiders must not be allowed in the forbidden area of ​​the imperial palace. There are fifty, which is considered a lot, and everyone has no objections.

When some of the quotas were confirmed at the beginning, no one was surprised.

Because there is no need to think about it, among the fifty places, the eight great families of martial arts and the nine schools of Jianghu must have a share, so when their names appeared in the first batch of lists, it was all expected .

What followed one after another were some sects and aristocratic families who were second only to the seventeen families, and some in twos and threes divided up another twenty places. This is also acceptable, after all, although these aristocratic families and sects are not as good as the top Those seventeen families are, at any rate, considered to be powerful forces in the Jianghu.

So everyone's eyes are focused on the last thirteen quotas. What everyone thinks is that the big heads have been eaten up, and the remaining dross must belong to small businesses and retail investors. Everyone came to visit and tried their best to fight for a spot. Gu Yue'an had already allocated the last thirteen spots with a wave of his hand.

Everyone was stunned at the same time, and found that those who got these [-] places were not well-known figures, and many of them were not even from the Jianghu. The reason why they got these places was that they were all from Jiangnan. It is more or less related to Chen Guogong and Chen Gong.

Then the answer is actually very obvious, why, because these are all from Chen Guogong, so Gu Yue'an did all the favors in order to please the future father-in-law.

Originally, there is nothing wrong with this, but even if you are doing favors again, you can't give them away all at once. What will the rest of you do? This is completely denying them a way to survive, and the food is too ugly.

Before, everyone thought that Gu Yue'an was a man who served the country and the people. Even if there were some impostors in the world who pretended to be evil, it would not damage his prestige at all. After all, where is his character?

But now when this incident happened, too many people's interests were damaged, and no one could sit still. Even if the Gu Mansion had already dominated the rivers and lakes, they couldn't stand the excitement of the crowd. In An's situation, the forces of the Gu Mansion couldn't hold back any more. For a while, the entire capital was condemning Gu Yue'an, scolding him for using power for personal gain and forgetting his original intention.

Some people even threatened to entangle the chivalrous men from all over the world to jointly file a letter to the court to report Gu Yuean's evil deeds.

But after all, that’s all. In the end, everyone was just cursing in restaurants and teahouses, and they didn’t dare to scold too loudly. After all, this is the capital and the territory of the ancient mansion. If it’s too much, I don’t know what will happen unless It is true that there are many people.

As for Gu Yue'an himself, he was completely at ease, as if he didn't know that people outside were scolding him at all, if he hadn't been fasting these days, he would have eaten a few more braised lion heads to celebrate.

Because this is the scene he wanted to see, self-defilement is what he has to do, and it happens that his father-in-law will let him get a few places in the future, so it will kill two birds with one stone.

There are still two days before August [-]th, and Gu Yue'an has not gone out anymore. He has been fasting since three days ago, drinking only water and eating a small amount of vegetarian food every day. Anyway, he has practiced martial arts to the point where he has already begun to communicate with the world , it’s not far from eating wind and drinking dew, like some powerful master masters, they can go without food all year round and reach the legendary bigu state, for example, Qin Mingyue, who is suspected of already having the state of heaven and man, Mr. Qin .

Fasting is a must, after all, Gu Yue'an really attaches great importance to this duel, whether it's to fulfill Lou Yu's wish, or to fulfill his own wish, or to say, to To go one step further, to improve himself, to get rid of the current shackles, he has to work hard.

Besides, Cui Longlou was indeed an opponent worthy of the utmost respect.

Gu Yue'an will never forget the feeling when he saw this senior for the first time. Cui Longlou standing in the heavy rain at that time must have felt lonely.

A master's loneliness.

So when he met Gu Yue'an again, he proposed to fight Gu Yue'an, not only to avoid that Young Master Qin, but more, it was actually a kind of expectation to meet his opponent.

Gu Yue'an is also looking forward to it, so he has been preparing frantically for the past few days. In addition to polishing his body with the sun, he kept replaying the details of the battle between Cui Longlou and Mr. Qin that night in his mind. Gu Yue'an continued to enter the training room to discuss with his martial spirits, study solutions, and deduce how to use every inch of Lou's moves.

After all, this battle is really impossible for him to lose.

Even if the other party is already a master, even judging from that night, it is very likely that the other party's martial arts were written by that master.

He is also constantly counting all his hole cards. In addition to the ability he obtained before, the ability that was permanently fixed on Zhou Duxing's knife after Zhou Duxing's death is also extremely useful.

"Fury of Burning Heaven: When the host falls into absolute anger, it can erupt with incomparably terrifying power."

Gu Yue'an vaguely remembered that in the Sunset Desert, he was on the verge of death, but relying on this ability forcefully, he hacked to death that Bai Yujing's sword-wielding envoy Mu Renqian.

It's just that how to arouse absolute anger when facing the enemy with Cui Longlou is a problem. After all, Gu Yue'an and Cui Longlou have nothing against each other.

So on the issue of how to stimulate this ability, Gu Yue'an studied for another day.

August fourteenth is coming.
