The Condor Heroes: The Quanzhen Sect has produced a vengeful master!
Chapter 81 Encountering the Demon Pill at the Teahouse
Lu Qingdu was somewhat puzzled, but seeing Wang Jiuling's expression, the clever man immediately placed his hand on the hilt of the sword.
Wang Jiuling shook his head.
"It's nothing, let's go!"
The group set off again, but a hint of doubt lingered in Wang Jiuling's eyes.
This is the second time today.
Before they left Tongguan, Wang Jiuling vaguely saw a figure hiding in the shadows, and he almost thought it was Wang Chongyang.
But the half-face that was vaguely visible made Wang Jiuling feel that it didn't look like him.
But that half-face inexplicably felt familiar to him.
The person vanished in the blink of an eye, and Wang Jiuling tried to find him, but to no avail.
Just now, when he was drinking water, he turned around and seemed to see that face again in a daze.
But upon closer inspection, they found the place completely empty, without even a single tree, let alone any Tibetans.
It was as if the figure was Wang Jiuling's illusion.
"Uncle-Master...don't scare me! Was there really someone just now?"
As they walked along the road, Lu Qingdu caught up with them and asked in a low voice, "Wang Jiuling's extremely strange expression just now sent chills down my spine."
"I must have misread it!" Wang Jiuling explained casually, and Lu Qingdu pursed his lips.
"And Martial Uncle, your expression just now... you..."
"Expression? What's wrong with my expression?" Wang Jiuling turned around, puzzled. What was this guy talking about?
"No! It's nothing!" Lu Qingdu quickly shook his head. "Uncle-Master, you're still as dashing as ever!"
"Instead of using your flattery skills, practice your martial arts!" Wang Jiuling shook his head helplessly and stopped looking at him.
Behind them, Lu Qingdu's eyes flickered, and it was unclear what he was thinking.
...
That day, Wang Jiuling and his companions arrived outside Xiangyang City and immediately noticed that the city was heavily guarded, with soldiers patrolling the city gates from time to time.
Even the checks at the city gates have become much stricter.
The group was exhausted from their journey. Once inside the city, they found a teahouse to rest and inquire about the reason for the tight defenses of Xiangyang.
I was having tea when an argument broke out next to me.
"I'm not selling this rabbit, please don't ask again!"
A young girl who looked like a rich lady, accompanied by two maids, was frowning as she looked at the two young men in front of her.
The two boys, however, remained by the girl's side.
"We're buying this rabbit. Name your price!"
The little girl was extremely annoyed, clutching the rabbit tightly in her arms, but her tone was yielding, clearly indicating that the two boys were of extraordinary status.
"I said I'm not selling!"
The two boys, however, refused to give up.
The two maids behind the little girl looked at each other, not daring to make a sound.
Wang Jiuling glanced over there, only frowned slightly, and had no intention of getting involved in such a trivial matter.
But Lu Qingdu immediately noticed the change in Wang Jiuling's expression.
At that moment, he thought to himself: My martial uncle hates evil like poison; if I want to gain his favor, I must prove myself...
So he stood up and looked at the two boys.
"Hey! Kid! They already said they're not selling, why are you still forcing me to buy?"
These words immediately made the two boys turn around. "Who are you? Why are you meddling in other people's business?"
Upon seeing this, the little girl seized the opportunity to slip away.
Just then, a spoiled female voice came from the stairwell:
"Hey you two! Why is it so difficult for you to buy a rabbit?"
It turned out to be a girl in a yellow dress. The two boys quickly ran over and pointed and explained.
"Fu-mei! Listen to us..."
Upon seeing this scene, Wang Jiuling sighed.
He hadn't recognized her at first, but now that he heard the boy call the girl "Fu Mei," he suddenly realized who she was.
Isn't that Da Wu, Xiao Wu, and Guo Fu?
He hadn't originally intended to get involved in this trivial matter, but Lu Qingdu had acted on his own initiative, and now that he knew it was these three troublemakers, he was even less willing to get into trouble.
"Qingdu! You are also a cultivator, why bother with the affairs of a few children?"
"Let's go! We have important business to attend to!"
Having rested enough, Wang Jiuling led Lu Qingdu and the others to leave.
Unexpectedly, when Da Wu and Xiao Wu saw this scene, they immediately pointed at them and complained to Guo Fu.
"Fu-mei! They were the ones who disturbed us just now, otherwise we would have bought the rabbit for you already!"
"Yes, yes, yes! It's them!"
Guo Fu was spoiled and willful. As soon as she heard this, she immediately led Da Wu and Xiao Wu to block Wang Jiuling and his group, pointing at Wang Jiuling.
"Hey! Who gave you permission to meddle? Do you even know who I am?"
Guo Fu stood with her hands on her hips, clearly very angry that she hadn't been able to buy the rabbit.
Lu Qingdu wanted to say something, but was stopped by a look from Wang Jiuling. He immediately realized that this trouble was brought to his uncle by him.
Wang Jiuling looked at Guo Fu in front of him and sighed helplessly.
This is Guo Shixiong's daughter, after all. Besides, Wang Jiuling has no need to argue with a little kid.
It would be beneath my dignity if word got out.
So he slowly opened his mouth.
"This humble Taoist priest was passing through Xiangyang and had no intention of disturbing you. If you think we've been nosy, young lady, I apologize."
After saying this, he cupped his hands in a respectful gesture and left with his men.
Guo Fu's face turned red with anger.
Although she was spoiled and willful, she was Guo Jing's daughter and had seen many people. Naturally, she could tell that Wang Jiuling's apology just now was not sincere. He was just trying to get rid of her because he found her troublesome.
At this moment, Wang Jiuling had already led his men downstairs and out of the teahouse.
Guo Fu angrily chased after him, and Da Wu and Xiao Wu, his two little followers, quickly caught up as well.
"Fu-mei! Wait for us!"
"You stinking Taoist priest! How dare you ignore me? Stop right there!" Guo Fu chased after them to the outside of the teahouse, trying to stop Wang Jiuling and the others.
Just then, a group of soldiers walked across the street.
The soldier's armor was somewhat unique, and the character "Guo" was written on his arm patch.
These were Guo's personal guards.
Guo Fu immediately ran over to complain, saying that someone was bullying her.
Several guards had come looking for the Guo family. When they heard Guo Fu's complaint, although they knew that the young lady's words could not be completely believed, they still blocked Wang Jiuling and the others.
Wang Jiuling and the others also stopped.
"Please wait a moment, everyone!"
The squad leader looked at Wang Jiuling and his group. He noticed that Wang Jiuling had an extraordinary demeanor and that the Taoist robe he was wearing looked somewhat familiar.
"I am a guard from the Xiangyang City Guard. May I ask your identities?"
Wang Jiuling cupped his hands in greeting.
"I am Wang Jiuling, the Sword-Holding Elder of the Quanzhen School of Zhongnan Mountain, with the Daoist name Qingyangzi! These are my junior disciples!"
"Are you a guard of the Guo residence? What a coincidence! I was just on my way to pay my respects to the great hero Guo!"
Now that he has a real title and goes out announcing his Daoist name, it can be considered a blow to the Quanzhen School.
Upon hearing this, the captain immediately bowed respectfully.
"So it's Master Wang from the Quanzhen School!"
Guo Jing also had a connection with the Quanzhen Sect, which was known throughout the land. Upon hearing that he was an elder of the Quanzhen Sect, the squad leader quickly offered to take him to the Guo residence.
Soldiers are soldiers, not two good-for-nothings like Da Wu and Xiao Wu.
Although Guo Fu was the eldest daughter of the Guo family, they did not listen to Guo Fu's side of the story. They respectfully invited Guo Fu to go back while ignoring her shouts.
"Hey! Why are you all being so polite to this Taoist priest? He bullied me just now!"
"I'm going to tell my mother!"
Guo Fu's shouts were drowned out by the noise of the street, while Da Wu and Xiao Wu remained her two little followers behind her.
Wang Jiuling and the others went to the Guo residence with the group of personal guards.
