That Person In That River and Lake

  Chapter 219 There are many popular people

Walking on the sunny streets of Chang'an, Gu Qingci was a little restless. He didn't know where this emotion came from, but he was depressed. He walked slowly on the street, strolled for a while, and went to the bookstore to buy After reading a few books, he turned to Qingshi Lane.

There are many rivers in Chang'an City, not the kind of turbulent rivers, but man-made Jinghe or lakes. In this spring season, there are many people who come here for outings. Walking on the banks of the river, the faint Gu Qingci always felt a little comfortable with the breeze blowing the willows. However, the emotions in his heart became more and more intense, and he didn't have time to enjoy the scenery along the way. He just wanted to go back to Qingshi Lane first.

However, just after walking a few steps, a martial artist with a sword on his back came straight over. Gu Qingci stepped aside, but the man stopped him again. Gu Qingci raised his head and glanced at the other party. stay still.

  Seeing that Gu Qingci stopped, the warrior directly clasped his fists and said, "Master Gu, Zhang Shiqi is in Jingzhou, and I want to ask Mr. Gu for advice."

Gu Qingci frowned, he couldn't think of this person, he had never heard of this person, let alone seen him, he was a martial artist who was not weak, and he was not very old, so he He looks in his early thirties, and he is quite talented. Judging by his appearance, he is probably a well-known person in Jingzhou.

  However, Gu Qingci was a little surprised by Zhang Shiqi's challenge, and said, "Do you know me?"

Although this Shiqi's strength is in the Qi state, but he has just entered the Qi state, and even his breath is still a little unstable. Gu Qingci does not look down on those with low strength, but this Shiqi is not a character like the Seven Mysteries of the World , how dare you come to challenge him?

   A person who is too far behind in both fame and strength comes to challenge, and he still asks for advice. This is not an equal strength at all. How to teach? Apprentice apprentice?

  However, that Zhang Shiqi looked very natural, nodded and said: "Of course I know you, Mr. Wushuang, Gu Qingci!"

   At this time, many people who were wandering by the river or taking a boat tour on the lake approached, especially after someone recognized Gu Qingci, more and more people came, and they all looked forward to the scene.

  That Zhang Shiqi was chatting with more and more people, with a touch of excitement on his face, and then he said loudly: "Everyone from the Jianghu, Zhang Shiqi in Jingzhou, please be polite. I have a chance to meet Mr. Wushuang today, and I came here to ask for advice!"

Many people started to boo. Although the people here are not all Jianghu people, but they like to join in the fun. And some more.

In the middle of the lake there is a flower boat slowly approaching. There is a young man with excellent temperament holding a folding fan in his hand. My son also encountered this annoying fly before, do you still remember how I did it?"

This young man is Wu Yu, the crown prince of the Wu Kingdom. It was no accident that he saw Gu Qingci here. He had gone to Qingshi Lane to look for Gu Qingci early in the morning, but Gu Qingci went to the morning court. After waiting for a long time, he got the news of Gu Qing Resigned to the street, and then came by boat.

   Lu Ming, who was standing behind Wu Yu, smiled slightly, and said, "It seems like a limb or a limb has been severed!"

   "Tell me, what will Gu Qingci do?" Wu Yu said with a smile.

  Lu Ming thought for a while, and said: "This Gu Qingci is unparalleled in bearing, and he is also a scholar. I'm afraid he will really teach that warrior well!"

  Wu Yu put away the folding fan, and said lightly, "I don't think Gu Qingci would do this, because he is a person who doesn't like trouble!"

Most of the people in the arena are looking for fame and fortune. Those who have strength don’t need to think too much, they can succeed only by relying on their strength. However, for those who have no strength but want to be famous, they must use some means. Especially those who came from small sects and casual cultivators.

Many famous warriors have been challenged in public, like this Zhang Shiqi who is now challenging Gu Qingci. In fact, his idea is very simple, that is, to take advantage of Gu Qingci's shoulders. Everyone knows that Gu Qingci is in the limelight during this period. It was as if the wind and cloud list was specially opened for him.

Of course, Zhang Shiqi is not a fool, he knows in his heart that he is definitely not Gu Qingci's opponent, but he still came because he knows the power of rumors in the world, even if he loses against Gu Qingci, he still has a way Things spread like magic, and then made him famous.

This kind of thing is actually not uncommon among Jianghu people. Every year, I hear that someone does this, but basically they challenge the list of rookies in Jianghu. It is rare to hear that they challenge the seven mysteries of the world, because the seven mysteries of the world are originally a mystery , his whereabouts are a mystery, the depth of his martial arts is a mystery, and whether he will kill someone is also a mystery.

However, since Gu Qingci came out, many people like Zhang Shiqi have started to follow him, because Gu Qingci's whereabouts are not difficult to find, and the limelight has surpassed the rookie list and even overwhelmed the Seven Mysteries. Yes, everyone in the world knows that Gu Qingci is a handsome young man, and he has the bearing to help his enemies enter the Tao.

So, when Zhang Shiqi came, he didn't dare to challenge the Seven Mysteries of the World, not because he was afraid of losing, but because he was afraid of being killed or abolished. However, he dared to challenge Gu Qingci, because he was sure that Gu Qingci would not kill him, Because there is a saying that goes well, "A gentleman can deceive him!"

  In addition, there is no sect power behind Gu Qingci, unlike Liu Yiqing and the others, as long as someone joins them, the Langya Sword Sect will let those warriors know what regret is, so Gu Qingci has also become the best challenge target.

   Gu Qingci pondered for a while, and seeing Zhang Shiqi's reaction, he immediately understood the man's intentions, frowned, and said lightly: "Sorry, I don't accept the challenge, leave!"

   Gu Qingci wanted to leave, but Zhang Shiqi couldn't stop him. He turned slightly and got behind Zhang Shiqi, then walked forward slowly.

Seeing Gu Qingci leave, the people who gathered to watch the fun all booed, Zhang Shiqi turned around and said loudly: "Gu Qingci, you dare not accept my challenge, is it because you are afraid of being defeated by me? I think your achievements are all fabricated! If you admit defeat in public, if you want to leave, I will definitely not stop you!"

Gu Qingci frowned, and his already irritable mood suddenly became worse. He turned around, spoke slowly, and said in a cold tone: "Your Excellency, helping you become famous is due to love. If you don't want to help you, you can't force it." Buying and selling, you are so provocative, it is too much!"
