Volume 1: Questioning the Past Chapter 80 Zhang Dixin
"So...you taught such an evil thing?" Gu Xiaoxing said angrily.
Guan Gu was obviously startled and asked, "What do you mean?"
Gu Xiaoxing briefly told about what happened at Zhuji Mountain, as well as some of his own inferences and guesses. He thought that the broken coffin would curse at unfilial disciple.
However, Guan Gua looked as if it was a matter of course, and said, "Don't blame me. I never taught him. I only verbally agreed because I was annoyed with him. I never really considered him a disciple. Why should I worry about it when I have nothing better to do?"
"Besides, I don't think he did anything wrong. He can get to this point with his qualifications as a police officer. He must be a genius. The world of cultivation is full of intrigues and deceptions. Do you think this is just a game?"
Gu Xiaoxing lost his temper after being lectured by Guan Gua. Come to think of it, they have different perspectives and pursuits, so they have no right to talk about right or wrong. Since they have become each other's stumbling blocks on the road ahead, they will just kill each other if they have the chance to meet in the future. It's a very simple question.
After thinking this through, Gu Xiaoxing stopped worrying about it. Suddenly, he thought of something and said, "By the way, how is the Soul Devouring Sect doing now?"
"How should I know?" Coffin asked back.
"How could you not know that you are the Soul Devouring Sect's guardian spirit treasure, and you have been staying on the top of the mountain?"
"What sect-protecting spiritual treasure? Guan Ye has never acknowledged it. Guan Ye is a spiritual treasure that only belongs to its master. What's more, I have been away from the Soul-Devouring Sect for seven years. Who knows what I have become now?" Thinking of being trapped for seven years, Guan Gua's tone suddenly became unpleasant. "Maybe someone wiped out our entire family!"
Gu Xiaoxing understood the bad temper of this broken coffin and knew it was bluffing, but he was still shocked and asked, "What did you say? Seven years?"
Gu Xiaoxing never thought that he would stay in the Foundation Building Mountain for so long. Later, he wanted to know something from the coffin, but he learned nothing except seven years.
“Don’t worry. When your Master Guan came out of the mountain, he had already scared those people out of their wits. No one should dare to cause trouble to the Soul Devouring Sect in the short term. As for Zhou Shoutai, well… I admire this disciple quite a bit, but it’s not that easy to change his fate. He has already reached the Perfect Jindan stage, so he will have to remain in seclusion for several decades…”
It was not until the coffin said this that Gu Xiaoxing finally felt relieved.
At this time, he had arrived in front of a restaurant. It was magnificent and splendid. In short, Gu Xiaoxing had never seen such a big restaurant before. Just by looking at the facade, he felt that the food inside must be very good. He licked his lips and walked in.
As soon as Gu Xiaoxing entered the restaurant, a waiter came up to him and said with an embarrassed smile, "Sir, I'm sorry, the restaurant is full. Do you want to go to the counter with me and wait, or... hehe!"
Gu Xiaoxing looked around and found that it was indeed full. He felt unlucky, but since he was here, he was too lazy to change to another one. He looked at one of the tables, his eyes lit up, and said, "It's okay. There's only one person at the table. I'll go and squeeze in with him..."
As he said this, Gu Xiaoxing was about to walk over by himself, but was stopped by the waiter, who said, "Please don't embarrass me, our restaurant really doesn't have this rule..."
"Let him come over. Since this Taoist friend has pointed me out among the vast crowd, I think we are destined to be together." Before the waiter had finished speaking, the waiter, who was sitting alone at a table, spoke up.
The waiter was startled, thinking that someone wanted to share a table with you before, why didn't you say you were destined to be together? However, as a waiter in a restaurant, he had already mastered the skill of observing people's expressions, so he didn't say anything more. He just smiled at Gu Xiaoxing, bowed slightly, and said, "Please come in, sir!"
"Well, serve all the dishes in your restaurant one by one, and serve the meat dishes twice!" Gu Xiaoxing said directly.
"This..." The waiter looked embarrassed.
Gu Xiaoxing directly threw out a medium-grade spirit stone and said, "Go ahead, I have plenty of money."
"This..." The waiter's expression remained unchanged.
Gu Xiaoxing was startled, and directly threw out another high-grade spirit stone. He thought that if it was still not enough, it would be classified as "robbing" and he would have a quarrel. One high-grade spirit stone was almost enough to buy a mid-range magic weapon, so how could it not be enough for a meal?
"Okay, please, sir..." Fortunately, the waiter immediately smiled as soon as he got the spirit stone.
Although it was a bit expensive, Gu Xiaoxing didn't think much about it. He was a person who didn't mind paying a little more for delicious food. So he sat down and found that the person sitting alone at the table was a very handsome young man. He exuded a scholarly air and looked quite gentle.
The young man smiled slightly, and this smile was very friendly. Without any movement, a new cup floated up and landed in front of Gu Xiaoxing's table. Then the wine pot also floated up. He slowly sipped a cup and said, "My name is Zhang Dixin. I wonder what your name is?"
Gu Xiaoxing was hesitating whether to say Lin Xiaochi was good or to say something else.
However, at this time, Zhang Dixin spoke again. There seemed to be a kind of melancholy color in his eyes, which was inexplicably meaningful. He said: "I see that you are destined to be a lonely star. I think your surname should be Gu, and there is also a word "Xing" in your name, right?"
As soon as these words came out, Gu Xiaoxing was suddenly startled, and a chill immediately rose in his heart. He narrowed his eyes and asked, "You know me?"
Zhang Dixin smiled and shook his head, saying, "No, no, it's fate. I'm just proficient in divination and I saw that we have a connection, so I just secretly divined for you."
Gu Xiaoxing naturally didn't believe it. He quietly communicated with the coffin inside his body, "Master Coffin, can you tell the details of this person?"
When there is a request, he calls himself "Coffin Master", and when there is no request, he calls himself "Broken Coffin". The transition is seamless. The coffin secretly thinks that this kid is really shameless. However, it still enjoys hearing the name "Coffin Master" very much, so it said, "Well, this guy is indeed a lightning-attracting body. He didn't lie to you."
"What is a lightning-attracting body?" asked Gu Xiaoxing.
"It's just that those who steal too much secrets are prone to being struck by lightning. Most people who know divination have this kind of problem..."
"Forehead……!"
Gu Xiaoxing was speechless. He just wanted to learn the art of divination, but would he get struck by lightning if he learned this art?
He communicated with the coffin in his body through his spiritual consciousness, which was only a moment in the outside world. He then said, "Daoyou Zhang Dixin is indeed a master of foresight. Yes, my surname is Gu, and I am from Lingyun Sect, Gu Daxing!"
"Isn't it Gu Xiaoxing?" Zhang Dixin smiled.
Gu Xiaoxing was embarrassed, thinking that you have already figured it out, but you are still pretending. Wouldn't it be better to just tell me your full name? But at the same time, he was also quite curious about this divination technique, so he moved closer and whispered, "I wonder how Brother Zhang figured it out?"
This time, Zhang Dixin looked at him in surprise and said, "So you believe it, brother?"
"Since Brother Zhang said so, there is no reason for me not to believe it!" Gu Xiaoxing was very good at making friends and moved closer . "Tell me quickly, how did you calculate it? What about the so-called destiny star?"
"We are indeed destined to be together..." Zhang Dixin shook his head and laughed, and replied, "Didn't I tell you? It's fate and time. Don't ask more, brother, because I don't know anything more."
Gu Xiaoxing certainly didn't believe it and continued to ask questions, but he didn't get any useful answers. He suddenly felt bored and said to the coffin, "Do you think what he said is true? That so-called destiny star, it sounds a bit bluffing!"
"The art of divination is like this. It can only predict a vague number. No one can tell whether it is true or false. Even if something is predicted, most of the time it cannot be fully revealed. If too many secrets are leaked, it will not only cause thunder, but also punishment from heaven ." said the coffin.
"Well... Master Guan, do you have any divination skills? Can you teach me?"
"Pfft..." Grandpa Coffin seemed amused. "You want to predict the future? Grandpa Coffin really has one. As long as you are not afraid of being struck by lightning, I can teach you!"
Gu Xiaoxing was a little scared, but he was not convinced, and said: "Then why can Zhang Dixin do it? I think his cultivation level is only in the late stage of foundation building!"
"It's obvious that he is from the Bu Tian lineage, a bloodline passed down from ancient times. He is able to conceal the secrets of heaven. How can your broken furnace and cauldron compare to that?" The coffin sneered.
"I think you're saying that because your broken coffin has nothing in it. Just like the Sutra of Rebirth from the Past Life last time, and the magical power? Pah!" When it comes to being sarcastic, Gu Xiaoxing is no slouch either. "None of your broken spiritual treasures are good things. Not only did you try to rob my burning incense, but you also passed on a fake magical power to deceive me. You're so shameless!"
Upon hearing this, even the coffin was angry and said, "Broken furnace, explain clearly what fake supernatural power you are talking about. The Sutra of Rebirth in the Previous Life is the supreme true supernatural power that surpasses the great supernatural power. If the master didn't really want to take you as a disciple, do you think he would grant you such a stunning fortune? Are you worthy of it?"
When Gu Xiaoxing heard this, he was even more furious. He clapped his hands suddenly, and there was a "pop" sound. Everyone present was startled, especially Zhang Dixin, who was sitting at the same table with him. He was looking at him in a daze with a wine glass in his hand. Even though his divination skills were very powerful, he didn't know what was going on for a moment.
Even Gu Xiaoxing himself was stunned for a moment, and then he smiled awkwardly to those around him, only to find a pair of beautiful eyes staring at him. The look in these beautiful eyes was obviously different from those of others, as if they were thinking about something.
As soon as he saw this person, Gu Xiaoxing immediately withdrew his gaze. Although he pretended to be nonchalant on the surface, he felt a little uneasy in his heart and prayed that the other party would not recognize him.
This person was none other than Qiao Yanran from the Yunxiao Sect, and behind her were five disciples from the Yunxiao Sect.
Qiao Yanran looked at Gu Xiaoxing and frowned slightly. She always felt as if she had seen this person somewhere, but she couldn't remember it for a moment. Finally, she shook her head and just thought of him as someone in the crowd in a certain picture in her memory.
In fact, this is the case. If Qiao Yanran searches her memory, she will definitely find the answer, but she obviously will not look through her decades of memories just because of a little sense of familiarity.
In fact, if Qiao Yanran had not been so deeply impressed by the events at the Foundation Establishment Mountain, she would not have even had such a feeling. After all, it had been seven years, and she had not taken a close look at all the disciples of the Soul Devouring Sect who had entered the Foundation Establishment Mountain at that time. In addition, Gu Xiaoxing did not come out of the Foundation Establishment Mountain afterwards, so she could not remember it for a moment.
Not until the Yunxiao Sect's group left did Gu Xiaoxing breathe a sigh of relief. If Zhou Shoutai succeeded in putting the blame on others, then the hatred between the Yunxiao Sect and their Shiling Sect would be great. If they were recognized, they might be hit with a Heart-Breaking Palm.
