Chapter 43 Zhuo Qingfeng's Visit

Gu Chudong's days were fulfilling.

I get up early in the morning, cook first, and then start practicing swordplay after dinner. I practice until noon and then go back to cook. After dinner, I start practicing Tiyunzong, and then I go back to cook in the afternoon. After dinner, I start practicing Fingerflipping Magic. Then before going to bed at night, I have to take a medicinal bath and practice internal skills.

Of course, although it was hard work, the progress was huge, especially with the help of Gu Mo, a martial arts master, who corrected her. Even though her talent was average, she improved very quickly. Moreover, Gu Mo was willing to spend money and bought a lot of precious medicinal herbs for Gu Chudong's medicinal bath.

However, every time he bought medicinal herbs, seeing the money being spent was like costing Gu Chudong his life. If Gu Mo hadn't used his authority as the eldest brother and father to intimidate him, Gu Chudong would have dug a hole to hide the money.

Gu Chudong was only thinking about saving money to treat Gu Mo's eyes, but Gu Mo, the person involved, was not too anxious.

It's another morning,
As soon as they finished their meal, Gu Mo began to instruct Gu Chudong in sword practice.

After practicing for a while, there was a knock on the door. The people who came were Yan Sanniang and Ah Qi.

Gu Chudong opened the door and saw Yan Sanniang holding a stack of rice paper. He immediately guessed that she was here to deliver information, so he asked, "Boss Yan, do you have any clues about the whereabouts of the poisonous spider?"

"good,"

Yan Sanniang walked in and said with a smile, "What a coincidence! The location of this poisonous spider has been found this time, and it has something to do with you and your sister!"

"What do you mean?" Gu Chudong asked.

Yan Sanniang sat down on the stone bench and said, "A few days ago, when you returned from Yong'an County, didn't you encounter a shady shop? You even helped a few disciples of the Bashan Sect apprehend the thugs who ran the shady shop."

"That's true." Gu Chudong said.

"What a coincidence," Yan Sanniang said, "Those thieves were taken to the government office by the disciples of the Bashan Sect. Under torture, they revealed a secret: it was the Poison Spider who was behind them. He's currently in Yong'an County. It's said he's been there for some time, specifically looking for people to run illegal shops, providing them with various drugs for free, and then having those run those shops test the poison on passersby."

Gu Mo asked, "Do you know the exact location of the poisonous spider?"

Yan Sanniang nodded and said, "This guy is different from the average wanted criminal who runs around everywhere. Poison Spider has been developing poisons for a long time and has all kinds of equipment and drugs. He needs a stable environment and usually stays in one place for a long time. A few days ago, he was exposed and moved to another place, and the government couldn't find him. However, I found him. He is now hiding in a tavern in the Red Maple Forest. That tavern is a black market that specializes in killing traveling merchants who are also Poison Spider's partners."

Gu Mo asked doubtfully, "Didn't the poisonous spider leave Yong'an County directly?"

"No," Yan Sanniang said, "I guess he was developing some kind of poison and it was at a critical stage. So, he didn't leave despite the risk of being caught. However, it was precisely because of this that the light was hidden from everyone. Everyone thought he had escaped from Yong'an County. If he didn't know so many people, they wouldn't have found him."

Gu Mo exclaimed, "Boss Yan has such a wide network of contacts that I really admire him."

Yan Sanniang said with a smile, "I know you've suffered at the hands of this poisonous spider, so I have to remind you that revenge is fine, but you must not be impatient. Sometimes, impatience can easily lead to bad consequences."

As she spoke, Yan Sanniang took out a small porcelain bottle from her bosom and said, "There are two heart-protecting pills in here. I asked a friend in the martial arts world to find them for me. These heart-protecting pills can protect the heart meridian in an emergency. Unless it is the world's top-level poison, it can only protect the heart meridian for a short period of time. If, I mean if there is any problem, take these heart-protecting pills immediately and leave quickly to buy time for rescue."

Yan Sanniang stuffed the medicine bottle into Gu Mo's hand.

Gu Mo smiled and said, "Boss Yan, this business of yours is really losing money. The bounty on this poisonous spider is only about two thousand taels, and your share is 30%, which is only six hundred taels. After deducting the information fee, is the profit enough to buy these two heart-protecting pills?"

Yan Sanniang said angrily, "You know this and you're still telling me? This is a loss-making business, and I'm already distressed. You're making it worse. How can you be so mean? Just give it to me!"

Gu Chudong snatched the medicine bottle and said, "Sister Yan is a good person."

Yan Sanniang rolled her eyes and said, "On weekdays, when you see me, Boss Yan, you call me sister if you do me a favor!"

Gu Chudong giggled foolishly. Yan Sanniang said angrily, "When did I kidnap your brother? Let's see if you can still laugh."

"Then you will become my sister-in-law, right? I will definitely smile even more happily." Gu Chudong said.

"Alright, alright, no more jokes," Yan Sanniang waved her hand and said, "You've dealt with this poisonous spider before, so you should be quite familiar with it. However, I'll still give you some specific information. You should go as soon as possible. I can't estimate how long the poisonous spider will stay."

"Okay." Gu Mo nodded.

at this time,

A system prompt sounded in Gu Mo's mind:

【New target detected】

[Wanted Target——Poisonous Spider]

[Mission Level—Three Stars]

[Quest Reward—Maximum Level: Dou Zhuan Xing Yi]

……

"gone."

Yan Sanniang stood up and left. When she reached the door, she suddenly turned around and said, "Gu Mo, be careful. Well, I'm already trying to contact Qi Miaoxuan. If he agrees to treat your eyes, I can lend you the money and treasures."

"Thank you."

Yan Sanniang waved her hand and left lazily, gradually going farther and farther away, leaving behind only a trace of graceful figure and a black dress, just like a touch of ink stained by the sunlight.

……

into the night,

Gu Chudong went to rest early because they would set off for Yong'an County early tomorrow morning, and Gu Chudong was responsible for driving, so he needed a good rest.

Gu Mo was sitting cross-legged on the bed practicing.
He practiced the Nine Yang Divine Art. Although he had already mastered it, his understanding of martial arts depended on his own perception. Strength depended on the practitioner, so daily practice and reviewing the old to learn the new were essential.

suddenly,

Gu Mo heard a very subtle sound of footsteps coming from the yard. He instantly concentrated his mind and immediately felt someone approaching quickly.

Gu Mo immediately stood up and began to circulate his internal energy in his hands. However, to his surprise, the other party stopped by the window and knocked on it politely.

This behavior made Gu Mo immediately rule out the possibility that it was a bad guy, and he asked, "Who?"

"Master Gu, I'm Zhuo Qingfeng, and I've come to ask for your help!"
