Chapter 7

"You usually stay here."

"Good, good, good, let's walk around more in the future!"

"I am also very happy to be able to make a group of good friends like you!"

In Jing'an Market, Gu Qing bid farewell to Ding Qi and others, identified Ding Qi's residence, and then returned to the inn. After a fight today, Gu Qing felt physically exhausted. He asked for meat and noodles, ate and drank well, and when lying on the bed, he told himself to get up and do things in the second half of the night, so he fell asleep.

In the second half of the night, Gu Qing opened his eyes on the bed, flashed, and left the inn.

In the dense forest behind Jing'an Market.

Gu Qing threw it, and Ding Qi, whose acupoints were sealed, fell to the ground. After seeing it was Gu Qing, he breathed a sigh of relief, sat up on the ground, and said: "Brother Shi, in the middle of the night, you brought me here, what for?"

"I thought about it, and felt that your thanks to me were too perfunctory."

Gu Qing found a stone to sit on, looked at Ding Qi, and said: "I want to hear you say thank you again!"

"Ah?"

Ding Qi really felt a bit inexplicable, but seeing Gu Qing so serious, he thought about it, and still said seriously: "Brother Shi Hao can help our Beggar Sect wipe out the Tatars in Yanghu Manor, I am very grateful!"

... Still no merit from Ding Qi.

"Thank you again."

Gu Qing gave Ding Qi another chance.

Ding Qi stood up, frowned at Gu Qing, and said: "Brother Shi, you can't tease me for no reason!"

Gu Qing saw Ding Qi stand up and said: "Based on my efforts for your Beggar Sect and sweeping Yanghu Manor, if we two fight, even if I am in the wrong, the Beggar Sect shouldn't blame me."

Ding Qi looked at Gu Qing's expression and felt that Gu Qing was very serious.

"Hero Shi..."

Ding Qi swallowed his saliva and asked: "Is there any misunderstanding between us?"

There is indeed some misunderstanding...

Gu Qing nodded. Having not brushed merit from Ding Qi for a long time made Gu Qing feel that Ding Qi had a problem. Between thoughts, Gu Qing suddenly made a move, and a move of the Ancient Tomb Sect's "Beauty Fist Technique" greeted Ding Qi's face.

The Ancient Tomb Sect's Beauty Fist Technique is the most flowery boxing technique. It is the integration of the moods of women's smiles and sorrows over thousands of years into the boxing technique. If it is used by a woman, it is naturally elegant, with every smile and every move having great interest. While used by a man, it should have some affectation, but Gu Qing deleted the affectation and moved, and the moves used had a bit more fantasy.

Ding Qi saw this boxing technique and naturally blocked it, but after a battle during the day, Gu Qing remembered most of the Beggar Sect's moves, and the Beauty Fist Technique was something Ding Qi had never seen before. With such a confrontation, Gu Qing had a plan in his heart. After only five moves, Gu Qing turned over, a move of "Chang'e Stealing Medicine," went straight to Ding Qi's crotch, grabbed his hand, grabbed it behind his back along the crotch, and pressed his other hand forward, thus controlling Ding Qi.

"Brother Shi, don't joke..."

After Ding Qi was controlled, he started to smile on his face again, saying: "If there is anything I'm sorry for, just say it."

Gu Qing looked at Ding Qi's smiling appearance, his heart hardened, and he was about to apply the "Bone-Splitting Hand."

"Sou!"

Suddenly a stone flew, smashing toward Gu Qing's hand.

Gu Qing has seen many movies. When encountering such flying hidden weapons, he avoids them if he can, and never grabs them with his bare palms. After seeing the stone, his body shifted slightly, letting the stone fly past him. When it fell to the tree next to it, it pierced the trunk with a "dong" sound.

If Gu Qing had grabbed it, it would only have shaken Gu Qing's arm numb.

"You kid, when you were killing Tatars, you were also a man, why are you so long-winded when asking people to thank you?"

A voice came from the dense forest, saying: "Chivalry is based on one's own heart, not someone else's heart!"

Gu Qing followed the voice and saw an old beggar lying under a tree at some point, with white beard, red face, and high spirits. On one hand, there were only four fingers.

When Ding Qi saw this old beggar, he frowned and thought.

Gu Qing recognized this person, reached out, cupped his fists at the old beggar, and asked: "Is it the Nine-Fingered Beggar Both Hong Qigong, Old Master Hong?"

Both Hong Qigong nodded. He was already in his later years, and his temper was very gentle, saying: "Kid, what misunderstanding do you have with him, tell me, I will be your peacemaker."

During the day, Liu Er's sudden order to attack strongly was issued by Both Hong Qigong. Liu Er's Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms were also taught by Both Hong Qigong. Both Hong Qigong also watched the Yanghu Manor, and even some of the Tatar's ambushes were cleared by Both Hong Qigong's personnel.

Both Hong Qigong watched everything Gu Qing did, and he also saw that Gu Qing used the Nine Yin Manual and some Quanzhen Sect moves. He was curious about Gu Qing's background. He followed Gu Qing to see Gu Qing's details, but didn't expect Gu Qing to suddenly catch a Beggar Sect disciple and want to beat him to death. Both Hong Qigong was to prevent Gu Qing from being narrow-minded and taking the evil path, so he blocked it.

"Actually, there is no misunderstanding."

Gu Qing said: "It's just that I unilaterally suspected that he was a Tatar, and wanted to explore his bottom."

Both Hong Qigong frowned slightly. Many of the arrangements in Yanghu Manor and some ambushes along the way seemed to show that it was a trap, but after being seen by Both Hong Qigong, he ordered the Beggar Sect people to dismantle it. Both Hong Qigong also knew that the Beggar Sect was mixed with dragons and snakes, and it was inevitable that one or two enemy spies were mixed in. Originally, he wanted Liu Er to investigate carefully, but didn't expect Gu Qing to pick one out.

"What reason?"

Both Hong Qigong asked.

"He didn't thank me sincerely enough."

Gu Qing said seriously.

"..."

"..."

Both Hong Qigong and Ding Qi were speechless.

"I wanted to use the Soul-Stealing Technique to test him, but I was afraid his spirit was too stubborn, so I wanted to beat him up. If he wasn't, I would apologize to him. If he was, I would send him away."

Gu Qing said this in front of Both Hong Qigong.

However, Gu Qing was serious about suspecting Ding Qi of being a spy.

Both Hong Qigong's gaze fell on Ding Qi, looking carefully. This gaze, as if real, made Ding Qi tremble, his face gradually turned pale, and his legs gradually softened.

Both Hong Qigong's prestige was too great, and the Beggar Sect respected him like a god. Ding Qi originally had a ghost in his heart. Facing Both Hong Qigong's gaze, his knees softened and he knelt on the ground.

"Old Sect Leader, I was confused for a moment..."

Ding Qi begged for mercy and bowed his head.

This was his own admission.

"Sigh..."

Both Hong Qigong sighed upon hearing this, saying: "Other things can be confused, how can this major matter of the country be confused?" While speaking, Both Hong Qigong stepped forward and reached out to touch him, and Ding Qi died.

"Kid."

Both Hong Qigong looked at Gu Qing and said appreciatively: "You are very good, and you have done a great favor to the Beggar Sect. If there is anything you want, just tell me."

Both Hong Qigong wanted to give Gu Qing some pointers, let Gu Qing be a pillar in the Jianghu.

"I want the general outline of the Nine Yin Manual!"

Gu Qing said hurriedly.

"..."

Both Hong Qigong turned his face and looked at Gu Qing... You really dare to ask!
