Chapter 139 [138] Ten Thousand Willingnesses! (Subscription Request)
Qingshi County.

"I've met the young master!"

"The young master is back~"

"..."

At the Gu Mansion, Gu Zheng walked into the gate in casual clothes. The guards, servants, and maids he met on the way stood aside, bowed, and greeted him happily.

Gu Zheng nodded in response.

"My son is back."

Gu Sihai, who received the message, hurried out.

"Dad, how's things going at home these days?" Gu Zheng asked casually, "Nothing happened, right?"

"all good."

Gu Sihai accompanied Gu Zheng and said with a smile, "If there is any trouble, it was only that kid Gu Feng. He was taught a lesson and hid in his room for three days. After he came out, he didn't run outside and practiced martial arts every day."

"Is there still this?"

Hearing this, Gu Zheng asked curiously, "Who beat him? Is the opponent a master? Did Gu Feng not announce his identity outside? Did he use my name?"

"If he dares to use your name, I will destroy him first!"

Gu Sihai snorted, "It's a little girl who fled here with her father and brother. She's only ten years old this year. Although she's not a master, she's not bad either. Especially this little girl has a good talent for martial arts. She mastered your "Bi Bo Yan Xia Jue" in ten days."

"Gu Feng thought it was a scam after hearing it, so he went to find someone to test it out. In the end, he was knocked down by the other party in two or three hits. He was so embarrassed, haha..."

It was just a minor incident, so Gu Sihai didn't want to make a big deal out of it.

The one who was particularly troublesome was Gu Feng.

Not to mention that the other party is just a ten-year-old girl.

"Mastering the "Bi Bo Yan Xia Jue" in ten days?"

After hearing this, Gu Zheng stopped and asked, "Is this true?"

I also didn't feel anything about Gu Feng being beaten.

It's not like I was deliberately bullied.

"it is true."

Gu Sihai knew what Gu Zheng was referring to, so he stopped and nodded, saying, "Not long after Gu Feng came back, the girl's father and brother brought people to apologize and left a hundred taels of silver. I asked Pan'er to test the girl, and she did indeed master the "Bi Bo Yan Xia Jue"."

After a pause, he added, "Now, I think it's a small success."

"That's fine."

Gu Zheng turned his eyes and said, "Dad, take me to see this little girl."

"what?"

Gu Sihai was shocked, "Ping An, the girl didn't hit him hard, Gu Feng deserved it. Besides, she also apologized."

"I'm not looking for her to settle accounts."

Gu Zheng looked at his father speechlessly and said, "I want to see the little girl's aptitude. If possible, it would be nice to have her as my apprentice."

"This……"

Gu Sihai was shocked.

His eyes became brighter and brighter. "Yes, yes, with the girl's qualifications, it would be a good idea to take her in and make her one of our own. It's a pity that she is a little young."

As he said this, he glanced at Gu Zheng and sighed.

"Dad, you think too much."

Gu Zheng was even more speechless, "Nowadays, human life is worthless, but talented people are hard to come by."

Although the natural disaster is a disaster, it is a great calamity.

But it is indeed an opportunity for everyone, and even all living beings.

It is not uncommon for ordinary people in the past to shine when given opportunities.

……

Just a few minutes home.

Under the leadership of Gu Sihai, Gu Zheng went out of the gate and headed straight for a slum in the west of the city.

Of course, the slums was the old name. Now, as long as the houses in the city are not completely collapsed, there will be people who will buy them.

"Recently, more and more people have fled to the city, and there are fewer and fewer places to live. The county magistrate has begun to restrict the flow of people."

On the way, seeing Gu Zheng looking at the passers-by, Gu Sihai introduced, "He plans to build a new district in Wuli Town outside the city and make the town wall higher and thicker. This will just be a good way to pull the extra people in the city out to work and avoid causing trouble."

"Lord Tong is far-sighted." Gu Zheng nodded.

Wuli Town is the closest township to the county seat, just less than five miles away.

"Yes, Lord Tong is a rare good official."

Gu Sihai sighed, "During this period, there were many people fighting and stealing in the city. Thanks to Ping An, you introduced Lu Guangbei to the government office as a head of police, helping Han Ming share the pressure. Otherwise, Han Ming would have collapsed from exhaustion. Now the boy is very grateful to Lu Guangbei."

"It's not too late to know now." Gu Zheng chuckled, "By the way, has Lu Guangbei made a breakthrough?"

"He has made a breakthrough." Gu Sihai nodded. "He is almost proficient in the "Bi Bo Yan Xia Jue". He is busy, otherwise, Lu Guangbei would have almost achieved a breakthrough by now."

"Here, we're here."

As they were talking, the two stopped at the door of a shabby hut.

"This is where the little girl lives."

Gu Sihai said this and walked forward and knocked on the door.

"Who?"

A skinny, frail, pale-faced woman in her twenties crouched through the crack in the door, looking outside, and asked, "Brother Zhou and the others are not here."

"Brother Zhou is not here?"

Hearing this, Gu Sihai frowned, "Where's Ding Ding? Is Ding Ding here? I'm Gu Sihai..."

"Master Gu!"

A sudden cry was heard from behind.

When Gu Zheng turned around, he saw a middle-aged man with dark skin and fatigue on his face. He opened his eyes wide and ran towards him quickly.

"Master Gu, why are you here?"

The middle-aged man trotted over to Gu Sihai, stood there nervously, and asked anxiously, "Did something happen to Master Gu? Did the wound relapse?"

"No, no." Gu Sihai waved his hand and consoled him, "Brother Zhou, don't be nervous. I'm not here to cause trouble for you, although I'm here to find Miss Ding Ding..."

"Then what are you doing here?!"

A pale-faced, short-haired, skinny little girl who looked more like a boy than a girl, stared at him and asked in a crisp voice, "Kill me if you want to, and use me as the scapegoat. Don't bother my family anymore!"

"you shut up!"

The middle-aged man's face darkened, and he pointed at the little girl and shouted, "How can you talk to someone like that? Get down on your knees right now!"

"I do not!"

Zhou Dingding raised his chin stubbornly, "At worst, I can just die. Anyway, my mother is dead, my second brother is dead, and my sister is dead too. It's no big deal if I die."

"you……"

"Okay, okay." Gu Sihai didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and hurriedly comforted her, "Ms. Ding Ding, I really didn't come here to cause trouble for you this time. The little conflict between us was revealed last time. This time we came here to..."

"Ping An, say something!"

Gu Sihai said, looking at Gu Zheng who had not spoken a word, and urged, "Didn't you want to come?"

After that, he introduced Gu Zheng to the middle-aged men.

"This is my oldest son, Gu Zheng, Gu Ping'an. He's the one who wants to find Ding Ding."

"Oh, it turns out to be Master Gu..." Zhou Zhenyue saluted subconsciously when he heard the words, but halfway through, he suddenly woke up, widened his eyes, looked at Gu Zheng, and exclaimed, "You are Gu Zheng, Master Gu!?"

"Where? Where is Master Gu Zheng?"

"What? Master Gu is here with us?"

“It’s really Lord Gu!”

"Huaiyang Xu family and Xu Qiuming come to see Lord Gu!"

"..."

Zhou Zhenyue's shout called out other people nearby, and they gathered on the street, looking at Gu Zheng with excitement and fear.

Some were shouting, some were bowing, and some were even kneeling down.

Gu Zheng's name has become a legend in Qingshi County.

Including those who came here to escape, most of them came here for Gu Zheng.

Because Qingshi is Gu Zheng’s hometown.

The patrol time of the Demon Suppression Guards is also longer than that of other places.

After so many incidents, there are basically no demons to be seen in Qingshi County.

In the end, all the credit went to Gu Zheng.

……

"No need to be polite, fellow villagers."

In response to everyone's greetings, Gu Zheng clasped his fists and responded to everyone in all directions. His voice was calm, but everyone could hear it.

"Ping An came here today for something. I hope everyone will forgive me and disperse. Let's get busy."

"I dare not, I dare not, Master Gu, please do as you please."

"I heard you. Everyone, disperse! Disperse! Don't interfere with Master Gu's work."

"..."

The crowd was noisy, talking a lot, and then slowly dispersed.

Even if someone wants to get close to me, they won't dare to get close to me at this time.

However, they did not go far. They discussed in low voices nearby and looked towards Gu Zheng from time to time.

Gu Zheng didn't care and turned to look at Zhou Zhenyue and Zhou Dingding.

"Shall we go inside and talk?"

“...Okay, okay.” Zhou Zhenyue came back to his senses with a start. He bent his waist, put a smile on his face, opened the door, and invited Gu Zheng to go in first.

Gu Zheng didn't hesitate and walked into the door immediately.

After entering, he saw a woman in her twenties standing in the corner of the courtyard with a nervous look on her face. He nodded and then continued to walk into the main hall.

Wait for Zhou Zhenyue, Zhou Dingding, and Gu Sihai to come in together.

Gu Zheng looked at Zhou Dingding and asked straight to the point, "My name is Gu Zheng. I guess you know my background. I came here today just to see your qualifications. I found them to be very good, so I wanted to ask, are you willing to become my disciple?"

"I am a registered disciple for now."

Gu Zheng added.

He later went to the capital and could not stay in Qingshi for a long time.

First accept him as a registered disciple and give him an identity so that you can observe what happens next. This is much more flexible than accepting him and then ignoring him.

"what?"

Zhou Dingding was still in a daze, but Zhou Zhenyue responded with a trembling voice of surprise and excitement, "Yes... Yes, she is willing a hundred times, ten thousand times!"

As he said this, he pressed Zhou Dingding's shoulders, knelt on the ground with a plop.

"Quick...quickly kowtow to your master!"

“Don’t force it.” Gu Zheng said softly, and waved his hand. The magical power surged and turned into a soft force, pushing Zhou Zhenyue away.

Then, he looked at Zhou Dingding, who had straightened his back, raised his head, stared at him with wide eyes, and chuckled, "How about it, are you willing?"

Such a direct question.

It was Gu Zheng who opened his golden eyes and saw that Zhou Dingding's bones were glowing!

This is a manifestation of a special physique.

It is fundamentally different from the king body, half-demon body, and divine weapon body of the aristocratic families.

The physiques of the latter few are different overall.

Whether it's royal blood, half-demon, spiritual beast, or magic weapon, the power of blood has been passed down for dozens of generations. Once it awakens, it will spread and cover the entire body.

Zhou Dingding is different.

Gu Zheng had read relevant information in the Demon Slaying Division.

Her situation is an acquired stimulation after the natural change.

Just like those mutated animals and plants, their physiques began to become extraordinary!
