Chapter 19: First out of the Jianghu, rescuing Zhou Zhou Zhiruo

Zhang Zhang Cuishan and Yin Yin Susu pulled Zhang Zhang Wuji aside and told him many things.

And Gu Gu Hanyuan and Zhang Zhang Wuji just greeted each other casually, which was considered knowing each other.

Zhang Zhang Wuji was quite curious about this Senior Brother Gu, after all, his mother Yin Yin Susu mentioned Gu Gu Hanyuan the most.

However, there was plenty of time on the road, so there was no rush.

Gu Gu Hanyuan planned to follow Zhang Zhang Wuji for the time being and harvest his childhood plot.

As for the puppet, he would go to Dali for positioning first to get the North Dark Divine Art and the Hong Lingbo Micro-steps.

After the three of Gu Gu Hanyuan left. Zhang Zhang Cuishan also set off to return to Ice Fire Island to confirm Brother Xie Xun’s life and death.

And Yin Yin Susu returned to the Tianying Sect to help Gu Gu Hanyuan build an intelligence organization.

The two didn't even communicate from beginning to end.

Zhang Zhang Cuishan only thought Yin Yin Susu was throwing a tantrum and didn't realize the seriousness of the problem at all.

They could no longer go back to the past.

The three went all the way to the Northern North Shaolin.

Gu Gu Hanyuan also specially changed his outfit on the road, it was a bit awkward to wear a Daoist robe while walking in the Jianghu.

He changed into a white robe and tied his hair into a ponytail with a ribbon.

His already handsome appearance gained an extra touch of elegance, creating the image of a dashing young master.

Zhang Zhang Sanfeng had no opinion on this, he had always been unconstrained by small details.

It was fine when he was in the Wu Dangpai, with disciples taking care of him.

But after leaving Wu Dang, he was much sloppier, and the Daoist robe on his body was dirty after a few days.

No wonder he had the nickname "Sloppy Daoist" when he was young.

On the road, Gu Gu Hanyuan often asked Zhang Zhang Sanfeng for advice on martial arts, and incidentally spent 1000 villain points to break through to the mid-Innate stage in front of him.

Even Zhang Zhang Sanfeng, a Land Immortal, was amazed at Gu Gu Hanyuan’s talent and taught him even more carefully.

Zhang Zhang Wuji was much older than the original 9 years old, and was already nearly 15 years old.

And because he took the Fierce Sun Elixir, he was not troubled by cold poison, so Zhang Zhang Sanfeng didn't have to channel energy for him to suppress the cold poison of the "Xuanming Divine Palm" often.

So the three of them traveled very fast and arrived at the Northern North Shaolin in a few days.

When Zhang Zhang Sanfeng took Gu Gu Hanyuan and Zhang Zhang Wuji to seek an audience outside the Northern North Shaolin, Kong Wen didn't want to see them.

But because he had promised to owe Gu Gu Hanyuan a favor before, he had no choice but to welcome the three into the Northern North Shaolin.

Kong Wen also gathered all the experts to entertain them in the main hall, and the hall was also full of martial monks.

It looked like they were facing a great enemy.

Zhang Zhang Sanfeng didn't exchange pleasantries much and stated directly that he wanted to seek the "North Shaolin Nine Yang Art" to save Zhang Zhang Wuji, but was refused by Kong Wen.

"This temple has never had the rule of lending out secret manuals. Back then, Master Zhang’s origin from the Northern North Shaolin was already an exception, how can we lend out secret manuals again."

In fact, Kong Wen originally wanted to say that Zhang Zhang Sanfeng betrayed the Northern North Shaolin, but after looking at Gu Gu Hanyuan, he changed it to origin.

He had a bad premonition that if he said betrayal, he would definitely be confronted by Gu Gu Hanyuan.

Although Kong Wen gathered a large number of experts, Zhang Zhang Sanfeng had been famous for many years, and he didn't want to cause a conflict.

Zhang Zhang Sanfeng had good self-cultivation, so he didn't care about the disrespect in Kong Wen’s words.

Gu Gu Hanyuan looked at Kong Wen in surprise, not expecting him to learn to be obedient.

However, he still bowed and said:

"Master Kong Wen said before that he owed Gu a favor, I don't know if it can be used here to seek the 'North Shaolin Nine Yang Art' for Junior Brother Zhang Wuji."

Kong Wen had expected this and refused directly.

"Amitabha. Although the old monk said that the Northern North Shaolin owed Young Master Gu a favor that day, I also said in advance that it must not violate Jianghu morality and sect rules. Although borrowing the 'North Shaolin Nine Yang Art' does not violate Jianghu morality, it violates the sect rules of the Northern North Shaolin, so I cannot agree to it, and I hope Young Master Gu will forgive me."

Gu Gu Hanyuan had long expected this result, so he was not surprised. He just did his best.

"Master Kong Wen is compassionate, can you accommodate it? Any conditions can be put forward."

Zhang Zhang Sanfeng didn't want to give up and continued to persuade.

Kong Wen didn't take the opportunity to put forward some impossible conditions, that would be too stupid. Therefore, he still chose to refuse.

"Sorry, the old monk cannot agree to this matter. Master Zhang, please return."

After speaking, he signaled the guest monk to send the three down the mountain.

Zhang Zhang Sanfeng knew that the matter could not be done, so he had to sigh and take the two down the mountain.

Although he didn't get the "North Shaolin Nine Yang Art," Zhang Zhang Sanfeng still planned to go to the Emei Sect to seek the "Emei Nine Yang Art."

When he was young, he and the founder of the Emei Sect, Qin Qin Sirong, were close friends, so he thought she shouldn't refuse.

With the "Emei Nine Yang Art," at least he could deduce and restore 50% of the "Nine Yang Divine Art," which might be effective against the cold poison in Zhang Zhang Wuji’s body.

When the three were on their way to Emei, they passed by Han, and suddenly there was a sound of fighting on the riverbank.

I saw several Eastern Depot agents chasing a man and the child in his arms.

And on a small boat by the river, an Eastern Depot agent was hacking the boatman to death and was going to harm another young girl on the boat.

Gu Gu Hanyuan saw this and directly proposed that Zhang Zhang Sanfeng save the man, and he would save the young girl.

After speaking, he leaped toward the small boat by the river.

The reputation of the Eastern Depot in Ming Guo had always been very bad, and most of the people they chased were good people, so there was no psychological pressure to attack them.

Zhang Zhang Sanfeng also went to rescue the man being chased, even faster than Gu Gu Hanyuan.

When Gu Gu Hanyuan leaped onto the small boat, the Eastern Depot agent was about to hack at the young girl.

He directly threw the sword scabbard in his hand at the Eastern Depot agent’s knife, knocking it away.

Afterward, he stepped forward two steps and sealed the throat of the Eastern Depot agent who had no weapons with one sword, and then kicked him into the river.

In the blink of an eye, the young girl was rescued.

Gu Gu Hanyuan saw that the young girl was about thirteen or fourteen years old, her clothes were old, her feet were bare, and although she was a poor boat girl, her appearance was beautiful, and she was a stunning beauty embryo. If she grew up for a few more years, it would be considered growing crooked if she didn't have a 90-point appearance.

He thought this young girl should be Zhou Zhou Zhiruo.

Zhou Zhou Zhiruo had already closed her eyes and waited for death, but didn't expect to be rescued.

Looking up, it was a dashing and very handsome young man.

In this contrast, she only felt that Gu Gu Hanyuan was like a great hero who descended from the sky.

"Are you okay?"

Gu Gu Hanyuan saw Zhou Zhou Zhiruo looking at him in a daze, so he had to remind her.

"Thank you, big brother, I’m fine."

After speaking, she threw herself on the boatman who died at the hands of the Eastern Depot agent and cried bitterly.

"Father!"

At this time, Zhang Zhang Sanfeng had already brought the man to the two of them.

The man held the child in his arms who had no breath and sighed.

"It’s all Chang’s fault. I couldn't protect the young master, and I also implicated the boatman’s life."

This person was the future famous general Chang Chang Yuchun.

But now he was just an ordinary disciple of the Mingjiao, and he was not yet showing his face.

Several people exchanged names.

Zhang Zhang Sanfeng saw that Chang Chang Yuchun was still spilling blood from the corner of his mouth and proposed to find a place to heal his injuries first.

Afterward, after everyone buried the remains of Zhou Zhou Zhiruo’s father, they found an inn in a nearby small town to stay.
