After traveling all the way to Juechen, when Gu Qingyan and Xu Shaolin were approaching Qingluo Temple, the people who had gone ahead had already arrived for a while and were about to go to the Zhaitang.

Master Kongjing and Mrs. Han walked in front, and the two chatted about everyday things. When they arrived at the Zhaitang, Master Kongjing said: "Shan Temple Suzhai, I hope all the donors will forgive me if I am not thoughtful."

Mrs. Han said, "I've already caused a lot of trouble, so you don't have to be polite, master." After saying this, everyone nodded in thanks and then sat down.

Su Tanxue asked Han Yan quietly: "Brother Yan, don't we have to wait for Qing Yan?"

Han Yan replied softly: "No, I don't know when Gu Qingyan will come over yet. It will probably be in the afternoon."

At this time, Gu Qingyan and Xu Shaolin happened to come to the small town under Qingluo Temple. They ordered two dishes in a small restaurant and ate whatever they wanted.

Gu Qingyan roughly told Xu Shaolin what Prince Yu had said to her, hiding the terms of exchange between her and Prince Yu. After hearing this, Xu Shaolin thought about it and then said: "It seems that I have to reply to that invitation."

Already."

Gu Qingyan smiled and took out the paper with the roster that Beiming handed her when she went out: "Then these people will keep Yuhualou busy for a while."

Xu Shaolin nodded and said: "Let's talk to the third child. How many can be dug before the new year? You should deal with it as soon as possible. After the new year, it is time to go to Biluo Palace."

The invitation from Biluo Palace was in the spring of next year, so they were leaving after the New Year. Gu Qingyan collected the paper, and went to Qingluo Temple after dinner with Xu Shaolin.

When he arrived at the entrance of the temple, Xu Shaolin dismounted and said to Gu Qingyan, "I won't go in."

Gu Qingyan hummed, Xu Shaolin was going to see other business this time. Gu Qingyan couldn't help in this regard, so he never got involved. He just asked: "Brother, every business we have now has nothing to do with that."

It’s related.”

Xu Shaolin replied: "It doesn't matter."

These two short words made Gu Qingyan feel a little more at ease. She casually told her to pay attention to safety and take care of herself before entering Qingluo Temple.

Xu Shaolin watched Gu Qingyan go in, and thought in his heart: What is supposed to come will come eventually, anyway, since you can't hide or hide, let's face it. Futu or Taohuajian, in this world, one of them must go first.

As for the others, they are just moderators in their confrontation.

A few people came out of the dining hall and saw Gu Qingyan being led over by a little novice monk. When they saw everyone, Gu Qingyan thanked the novice monk and walked towards everyone: "Grandma, Tanxue, second brother, third brother."

Concerned, Mrs. Hanyin asked Gu Qingyan if she had eaten. Gu Qingyan said that she and Xu Shaolin had eaten in the small town. Mrs. Hanyin and Gu Qingyan briefly said a few words, then returned to the wing and saw them off.

After meeting the Hanyin clan, several juniors found a place to sit down. Gu Qingyan didn't hesitate to call out Beiming and gave the page to Baili Mo, saying, "Third brother, it's up to you."

Baili Mo took the paper, looked at it, said "I understand", and gave the paper to Xijue. After accepting it, Xijue seemed to say something in Bailimo's ear. Bailimo nodded and asked Xijue to

He and Beiming retreated together to investigate what needed to be investigated.

Then Baili Mo said to Han Yan: "Situ Haoyang is here too."

Han Yan was not surprised when he heard this name, but Su Tanxue's heart fluctuated slightly after hearing it. She couldn't help but wonder why that person was there, was it accidental or was he intentional?

Gu Qingyan glanced at Han Yan, then turned to Su Tanxue and said, "I used to know that there is an apricot grove in Qingluo Temple. It's very beautiful. I'll take you to see it." After that, it didn't matter whether Su Tanxue had it or not.

If you are interested, pick her up and leave.

After the two of them walked away, Han Yan said, "Did he follow you?"

Baili Mo replied: "No, he arrived a day ago."

"Why did he want to get close to Tanxue?" Han Yan had met Situ Haoyang, but his knowledge of Fu Tu was definitely not as deep as that of Taohua Jian, so Zong Yue told him about the mistress Gu: "

Now judging from various signs, Miss Su is his chosen host."

Han Yan couldn't help but clenched his fists. Su Tanxue had no martial arts skills and was simple-minded. They couldn't guarantee that they would be by her side at all times.

Zong Yue said: "But with Qing Yan by her side for now, Situ Haoyang won't be able to succeed so easily."

Having said that, Zong Yue cannot guarantee what the facts are.

"However, I don't understand one thing." Baili Mo said his doubts. Situ Haoyang's methods and Gu Qingyan's are actually the same as each other. It's just that Situ Haoyang's Gu can control people, but Gu Qingyan will always control people no matter how superb he is.

She can't control people, she can only kill people, so such people generally won't slow down their pace, and will change later, "With Situ Haoyang's Gu skills, it's not that there is no chance, but he doesn't use it, what is he waiting for?"

?”

"Wait until this person becomes a host who is willing to be controlled by him." Han Yan expressed his thoughts, and the three of them looked at each other. If this is the case, then who knows what will happen next.

But this is exactly what Han Yan said. As Situ Haoyang's deputy, Zhao Qiyue once asked Situ Haoyang. At that time, Situ Haoyang's answer was: "It would be boring if the Gu insects only killed people.

What I want is to see that Gu can control people, and the original host must be willing to do so in order to have the best effect."

In this way, he began to attack the girl who had never been in the world.

The golden leaves spread out a path, and the sunlight dappled through the leaves towards the two girls walking on the path. Gu Qingyan closed her eyes while walking, breathing slowly, enjoying the leisurely wind in the mountains and listening to the rustling of the leaves.

Su Tanxue looked at Gu Qingyan's relaxed look and felt relaxed unknowingly. However, she held Gu Qingyan's sleeve with one hand, fearing that Gu Qingyan would fall or bump into something. Gu Qingyan patted

He patted her hand and said, "Did my master teach you Qing Gong at the villa a few days ago? Do you want to try it?"

Qianhuayu wanted to check Gu Qingyan's homework those days, so Gu Qingyan had no choice but to pull Su Tanxue and ask her master to change his target. Therefore, Su Tanxue learned a little from Qianhuayu, but Qinggong was not a matter of day after all.

It will take two days, so Su Tanxue is actually no different now than before, shaking her head and refusing.

Gu Qingyan didn't force it. She found a place and suddenly picked up Su Tanxue's waist and jumped onto the tree. The two of them sat on the tree trunk. Su Tanxue regained consciousness and did not dare to let go of Gu Qingyan.

, Gu Qingyan joked: "Don't worry, this is a banyan tree, it's usually not easy to fall."

She had climbed a lot when she was a child. When she was lazy in practicing martial arts, the banyan tree was where she would hide.

After Su Tanxue calmed down and looked around, she found that the apricot forest was particularly beautiful when looking at it from above. Then she looked at Gu Qingyan, leaning lazily on the tree trunk, calmly.

"Tanxue, do you know who Situ Haoyang is?" Gu Qingyan said quietly. Su Tanxue shook her head gently. For Situ Haoyang, her only impression was that she was willing to get close to him. Maybe it was because of that day

Those words, or maybe it was because of his cool aura that attracted her.

But she saw that Han Yan and the others seemed to be wary of Situ Haoyang. Gu Qingyan took a breath and said, "He is called Lord in Futu."

Su Tanxue thought to herself: It turns out that this person still has some weight. Gu Qingyan didn't pay much attention to Su Tanxue, and continued: "He is a powerful person, a master of poison."

"Gu?" Su Tanxue asked.

Gu Qingyan replied: "Yes. It is also a kind of poison, but most of it is based on insects. Simply put, they are poisonous insects." Su Tanxue was digesting the information Gu Qingyan gave her, "People like Situ Haoyang

, His clever method is that he not only uses poison, he also uses poison to control people." This is something Gu Qingyan cannot do.

Su Tanxue couldn't make a judgment and asked: "Is he a bad person?"

Gu Qingyan thought about it, as far as the victim was concerned, she, like Situ Haoyang, was not a good person, but from their own point of view, it was not a heinous crime.

So he said: "Tan Xue, no one can influence your thoughts and choices. Han Yan is like this, and so am I. There is no telling what is good or bad in this world. Today I am talking to you about Situ Haoyang.

It’s just to give you a reference.”

When Su Tanxue listened to Gu Qingyan's words, she could feel Gu Qingyan's aura slowly emerging, which made her feel strange.

Gu Qingyan told Su Tanxue that she and Situ Haoyang are both the same kind of people, with their hands covered with blood donations on the invisible side. They are naturally antagonistic, so even if they are similar, they cannot become friends. Su Tanxue now

She was about to be in the middle of these opposites, Gu Qingyan thought, maybe by telling her clearly in advance, she would hate herself less.

The increasingly indifferent Gu Qingyan made Su Tanxue feel uneasy: "Qingyan, you..."

She wanted to say that this was not the Gu Qingyan she knew, but then she thought about it, she had only known her for a month, and she really knew very little about Gu Qingyan, and her words trailed off.

After all, it was innocence. This is what Gu Qingyan thought of Su Tanxue: "Han Yan should have told you what I was doing, but he has never understood it, including now."

Han Yan told Su Tanxue that Gu Qingyan could be considered a killer, and she had also heard rumors about the fourth girl in the world. She always thought that it was someone else who paid a commission, and Gu Qingyan killed people, which was a kind of business, but Gu Qingyan

Qingyan told her that anyone who stood opposite Gu Qingyan was either rich or noble and that ordinary people could not touch or dare not touch. Gu Qingyan told her that the person opposite Gu Qingyan now is Situ

Haoyang, so one day, they will face each other, but it is just a matter of time.

"Qing Yan, you are my friend here, and Situ Haoyang may also be my friend in the future. After all, I have no objection to him. I don't know what grudges there will be between you, but I hope you will

Everything is fine." After listening to Gu Qingyan's words, Su Tanxue said. After she finished speaking, she realized that this time, her words had more power and more thoughts than before.

Gu Qingyan didn't care what she said, and smiled after listening to her tone: "Tanxue, you can slowly open your heart. In fact, you also have your own ideas, don't you? In this way, the task assigned by Aunt Jing

I'm done too."

After saying that, Gu Qingyan pulled Su Tanxue and jumped down from the tree back to the ground. She put one hand behind Su Tanxue's waist, but did not touch it directly. When Su Tanxue stood firm, she withdrew both hands.

Not far away, a monk walked towards the two of them. When Gu Qingyan saw the person clearly, the monk was approaching: "So I met the fourth girl here."

Gu Qingyan replied: "Isn't it me that Zen Master Kongyun is destined for today?"

The person who came was none other than Master Kongyun, who was practicing Zen with Gu Qingyan. Gu Qingyan used to call him Zen master, and he also called Gu Qingyan Fourth Miss.

Zen Master Kongyun is also a person with a unique personality. He looked back on Qing Yan's words with a bit of a smile: "It's been a long time since I last saw the fourth girl with a new person. The apricot forest has a beautiful scenery, both inside and outside."

Gu Qingyan smiled, knowing something, and said to leave first. Kong Yun just let her do what she wanted, leaving Su Tanxue behind: "Donor, please stay."

Su Tanxue also called Zen Master, and Kong Yun said: "There is an ancient tree in this apricot grove. The poor monk took the donor to see it. The scenery is unique." Su Tanxue agreed and followed Kong Yun.

Along the way, Kong Yun talked about the scene when he and Gu Qingyan met.

Six years ago, Gu Qingyan had just left the stone gate. She completed a task independently for the first time. Seeing the living lives falling down in front of her eyes, without breathing, Gu Qingyan couldn't describe how she felt.

After it was over, the people who were traveling with her set a fire to burn the corpses in the room. The firelight reflected Gu Qingyan's figure, allowing her to see clearly her hands stained with blood. At that moment

, Gu Qingyan jumped up, no one caught up with her, and saw her heading towards Qingquan Villa, which was not far from Qingquan Villa. Gu Qingyan just wanted to hide at that time, Qingquan Villa was the safest for her

The place.

When they arrived at the villa, they heard from Uncle Yin that they had gone to Qingluo Temple, so Gu Qingyan did not stop and went to Qingluo Temple again. Here, Gu Qingyan was running in front, and Beiming led the twelve ghost guards to chase him.

Chased all the way to Qingluo Temple to find Han Yan, but Han Yan said that he had never seen Gu Qingyan.
