Chapter 29
Zhang Sanfeng had no opinion on this; he had always been unconstrained by small details.
It was fine when he was in the Wu Dang Sect, with disciples taking care of him.
But after leaving Wu Dang, he was much sloppier, and the Daoist robe on his body was dirty in a few days.
No wonder he had the nickname "Sloppy Daoist" when he was young.
On the road, Gu Hanyuan often asked 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 on the spot.
Even Zhang Sanfeng, who was an Earth Immortal, was amazed at Gu Hanyuan's talent and taught him more attentively.
Zhang Wuji was much older than the original 9 years old, and was almost 15 years old.
Also because he ate the Fierce Sun Pill, he was not troubled by cold poison, so Zhang Sanfeng didn't have to circulate Qi 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 North Shaolin in a few days.
When Zhang Sanfeng took Gu Hanyuan and Zhang Wuji to seek an audience outside the North Shaolin, Kongwen didn't want to see them.
But because he had promised to owe Gu Hanyuan a favor before, he had no choice but to welcome the three into the North Shaolin.
Kongwen also summoned all the masters to entertain them in the main hall, and the outside of the hall was also full of warrior monks.
It looked like they were facing a great enemy.
Zhang Sanfeng didn't exchange pleasantries and stated directly that he wanted to seek the "Shaolin Nine Yang Skill" to save Zhang Wuji, but was refused by Kongwen.
"This temple has never had the rule of lending secret manuals. In those years, True Person Zhang's origin from the North Shaolin was already an exception, how can we lend the secret manual again."
In fact, Kongwen originally wanted to say that Zhang Sanfeng betrayed the North Shaolin, but after looking at Gu Hanyuan, he changed the betrayal to origin.
He had a bad premonition that if he said betrayal, he would definitely be confronted by Gu Hanyuan.
Although Kongwen summoned a large number of masters, Zhang Sanfeng had been famous for many years, and he didn't want to cause conflict.
Zhang Sanfeng had good self-cultivation, so he didn't care about the disrespect in Kongwen's words.
Gu Hanyuan looked at Kongwen in surprise, not expecting him to learn to be obedient.
But he still arched his hands and said:
"Master Kongwen said before that he owed Gu a favor; I wonder if it can be used here to seek the 'Shaolin Nine Yang Skill' for Junior Brother Wuji."
Kongwen had expected this and refused directly.
"Amitabha. Although the old monk said that the North Shaolin owed Gu Shaoxia a favor that day, I also said in advance that it must not violate Jianghu morality and sect rules. Although borrowing the 'Shaolin Nine Yang Skill' does not violate Jianghu morality, it violates the sect rules of the North Shaolin, so I cannot agree, and I hope Gu Shaoxia will forgive me."
Gu Hanyuan had long expected this result, so he was not surprised. He just did his best.
"Master Kongwen is compassionate; can you accommodate it? Any conditions can be put forward."
Zhang Sanfeng didn't want to give up, and continued to persuade.
Kongwen didn't take the opportunity to put forward some impossible conditions; that would be too stupid. Therefore, he chose to refuse.
"Sorry, the old monk cannot agree to this matter. True Person Zhang, please return."
After speaking, he signaled the guest-welcoming monk to send the three down the mountain.
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 "Shaolin Nine Yang Skill," Zhang Sanfeng still planned to go to the Emei Sect to seek the "Emei Nine Yang Skill."
When he was young, he and the founder of the Emei Sect, Qin Sirong, were close friends, so he thought she shouldn't refuse.
If he could get the "Emei Nine Yang Skill," he could at least restore 50% of the "Nine Yang Divine Art," which might be effective against the cold poison in Zhang Wuji's body.
On the way to Emei, the three passed by Han, and suddenly there was a sound of fighting on the riverbank.
I saw several Eastern Depot officials chasing and killing a man and the child he was holding in his arms.
And on a small boat by the river, an Eastern Depot official was chopping down the boatman and was going to harm another girl on the boat.
Gu Hanyuan proposed directly to Zhang Sanfeng to save the man, and he went to save the girl.
After speaking, he leaped to the boat by the river.
The reputation of the Eastern Depot in the Ming Guo had always been very bad, and most of the people they chased were good people, so there was no psychological pressure to make a move against them.
Zhang Sanfeng also went to rescue the man being chased, even faster than Gu Hanyuan.
When Gu Hanyuan leaped to the small boat, the Eastern Depot official was about to chop the girl.
He threw the sword scabbard in his hand directly at the Eastern Depot official's knife, knocking it away.
Afterward, he stepped forward two steps and sealed the throat of the Eastern Depot official who had no weapons with one sword, and then kicked him down the river.
The girl was rescued in the blink of an eye.
Gu Hanyuan saw that the 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 girl should be Zhou Zhiruo.
Zhou Zhiruo had already closed her eyes and waited for death, not expecting to be rescued.
Looking up, it was a graceful young man with a very handsome appearance.
In this contrast, she only felt that Gu Hanyuan was like a great hero descending from the sky.
"Are you okay?"
Gu Hanyuan saw 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 official and cried bitterly.
"Father!"
At this time, Zhang Sanfeng had already brought the man to the two of them.
The man sighed while holding the child who had no breath in his arms.
"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 Yuchun.
But now he was just an ordinary disciple of the Ming Sect, not showing his face.
Several people exchanged their names.
Zhang Sanfeng saw that 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 collected the remains of Zhou Zhiruo's father and buried them, they found an inn in the nearby town to stay. ===== CHAPTER 31 =====
