At the time, we guessed it was a fox spirit or some kind of demon, but now it seems that it was probably because Gu Hanyuan's martial arts skills were too profound.
As for why she was the only one who could see Gu Hanyuan at that time, Sun Xiaohong attributed it to fate.
The old man of heavenly secrets took a puff of his pipe and said leisurely:
"Xiao Hong, you don't need to worry too much. Young Master Gu not only saved you, but he also smiled at you before leaving. He definitely doesn't dislike you."
Sun Xiaohong recalled Gu Hanyuan's handsome smile from that time and felt her heart flutter.
She thought to herself, no wonder Gu Hanyuan has so many female confidantes. Just that slight smile, how many women could resist?
Sun Xiaohong felt increasingly embarrassed as she thought about it, and her pretty face, which had finally cooled down a bit, started to burn again.
He said, trying to cover it up:
"Young Master Gu has also said that I am beautiful, so of course he won't dislike me."
The old man of the heavenly secrets said strangely:
"Xiao Hong, you haven't fallen for Young Master Gu too, have you? Take my advice, Young Master Gu is too sentimental, falling for him will only lead to a bad end."
Sun Xiaohong said with dissatisfaction:
"Didn't you teach me, Grandpa? Better to be a hero's wife than a mediocre man's concubine. Young Master Gu is a peerless hero, so it's perfectly normal for him to have many female confidantes."
The old man Tianji felt a great headache upon hearing this.
I can't be bothered to argue that Sun Xiaohong thought Li Xunhuan was a hero one minute, and then so quickly changed her mind and thought Gu Hanyuan was a peerless hero the next.
His extensive experience told him that arguing with the woman about this was pointless.
He changed the subject and said:
"I didn't expect Young Master Gu to come to the Northwest martial arts world. In that case, the strange phenomenon that appeared in the sky the other day was probably not a natural occurrence, but rather caused by someone's moves."
Sun Xiaohong also recalled the spectacular sight that suddenly appeared in the clouds that day.
The snow suddenly cleared up.
It even caused the area to stop snowing for several days in a row.
Many people regarded it as some kind of auspicious omen, and many outrageous rumors spread.
Sun Xiaohong asked in surprise:
"Grandpa, are you saying that Young Master Gu made it?"
"I'm just guessing. After all, only Young Master Gu could have such extraordinary abilities. Young people these days are really something else. Even I can't see through him."
As the old man Tianji spoke, he felt the "Weapon Ranking" was increasingly absurd.
He's just an old, decrepit grandmaster; what merit does he have to be ranked number one?
If he hadn't hidden himself well, he would have been killed by some old monster who didn't like him long ago.
Take Gu Hanyuan, for example, whom he said he couldn't see through at all.
Even with just the tip of the iceberg showing, he already felt that he might not last a single move against Gu Hanyuan.
Let's leave aside the earth-shaking wonders for now, since they're just speculation.
However, the way Gu Hanyuan injured Qin Xiaoyi before was shocking.
The wise and experienced old man immediately saw the terrifying aspect of it.
When the injuring chopstick was jolted up, the other chopsticks in the bamboo tube remained completely still.
It is even more dangerous than the seemingly miraculous act of plucking flowers and leaves, which can all cause injury.
Sun Xiaohong, on a sudden impulse, asked:
"Grandpa, do you think Young Master Gu might have come here because of the Plum Blossom Thief?"
Chapter 668: If something unexpected really happens, perhaps entrusting Shiyin to Young Master Gu would be a way out (Please subscribe, please give flowers)
P.S.: Thank you again to reader "Desert Hardman" for the continuous generous donations of 10,000 RMB each. I'll try my best to work hard and update 10,000 RMB per day these next few days.
Recently, the Plum Blossom Thief has resurfaced and committed numerous major crimes.
This has caused widespread panic among the martial arts community in Northwest China.
At this moment, the unparalleled hero Gu Hanyuan suddenly arrived in the Northwest martial arts world, which perfectly matched Sun Xiaohong's guess.
She said, her beautiful eyes shining:
"The Plum Blossom Thief has committed many evils. Perhaps Young Master Gu has come to rid the people of this scourge."
The old man of the heavenly secrets first nodded in agreement, then teased:
"It's possible. After all, the legendary beauty of the Northwest martial arts world, Lin Xian'er, promised to marry whoever could kill the Plum Blossom Bandit. Given Young Master Gu's romantic nature, he might have taken a liking to Lin Xian'er."
Actually, the more significant reason behind the uproar surrounding the Plum Blossom Thief incident was the promise made by Lin Xian'er.
After all, although the Plum Blossom Bandits committed many serious crimes, their influence was limited to the martial arts world of Northwest China.
It is incomparable to the "net" that everyone fears.
If it weren't for the fact that it concerns Lin Xian'er's future, it probably wouldn't attract much attention.
Sun Xiaohong was annoyed when she heard this.
He said sourly:
"Pah! I don't believe Young Master Gu is that shallow. Lin Xian'er, who was somehow hailed as the most beautiful woman in the Northwest martial arts world, is probably not someone Young Master Gu would even look at."
"If you don't like Lin Xian'er, do you think you'd like a little brat like you?"
The old man Tianji tapped the ash off his pipe and teased the furious Sun Xiaohong.
He truly didn't want Sun Xiaohong to fall into Gu Hanyuan's trap.
Sun Xiaohong said quietly:
"Grandpa, have you not wanted to drink for a month?"
Upon hearing this, the old man of the heavenly secrets was greatly surprised and said:
"Little Hong, please have mercy. I'll die if I don't have alcohol for a month."
Sun Xiaohong, too lazy to pay attention to the old drunkard, said angrily:
"If you don't want to go without wine, then help me find Young Master Gu."
The old man of the heavenly secrets suddenly realized that he had shot himself in the foot.
He said awkwardly:
"Young Master Gu is best known for his ability to fly on a sword, making him unpredictable and elusive. I have no idea where he'll go."
Sun Xiaohong snorted willfully:
"I don't care, Grandpa, you have to find Young Master Gu, I'm going to apologize to him."
Sun Xiaohong still felt resentful about her careless remark earlier.
Worried that Gu Hanyuan would be dissatisfied with her, she was eager to find an opportunity to explain to him.
She wasn't worried at all about not being able to find Gu Hanyuan's whereabouts.
Now that Gu Hanyuan has come to the Northwest martial arts world, he certainly won't be leaving anytime soon.
As long as Gu Hanyuan hasn't left, the Old Man of Heavenly Secrets will definitely be able to find him.
Sun Xiaohong was aware of her own intelligence capabilities.
Leaving aside other parts of the Ming Dynasty, there was no news in the Northwest martial arts world that they couldn't find out.
Afterwards, Sun Xiaohong pushed the sighing old man Tianji out of the restaurant.
In Mei Er's thatched hall.
Li Xunhuan, who had just received treatment from Mei Er, said with a wry smile:
"Young Master Gu, you have caused me so much suffering."
Gu Hanyuan toyed with the wine glass in his hand with amusement, and asked with a light laugh:
"Oh? What do you mean by that, Scholar Li?"
Ignoring Mei Er's advice, Li Xunhuan raised his cup and drank it all in one gulp.
He let out a long sigh and said softly:
"Having drunk Young Master Gu's osmanthus wine, all other wines seem utterly tasteless. Wouldn't that be an unbearable torment for a drunkard like myself?"
Gu Hanyuan smiled slightly and teased:
"Wine and women are like steel knives that dig out bones; Li Tanhua would be better off quitting drinking sooner rather than later."
Upon hearing this, Li Xunhuan's expression immediately became extremely strange.
He had heard that Gu Hanyuan had countless female confidantes.
So you're saying you'll abstain from alcohol but not from sex?
Gu Hanyuan has been here for a while now.
