Chapter 177: Simple Chu Li



"Master has already taken out the Life and Death Gu for you, but he said that your Life and Death Gu is different from the ordinary Gu insects of the Southern Barbarians, and it may have some side effects."

This is a Gu made by a wizard from the Gu Bureau.

The Si Gu Bureau is the place where the most powerful Gu-making masters in the Southern Barbarian Kingdom gather.

Chu Li touched his neck and moved his body tentatively, "What side effects?"

"Your heart has stopped and your blood has stagnated. Once the blood supply to the brain stops, the person dies. Even if the Life and Death Gu clears the blood in your body and brings you back to life, there is still a piece missing from your brain."

"You may experience some side effects such as memory loss in the future, but it won't be life-threatening."

Chu Li breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that.

It's not a big deal.

"Take me to see the master."

"Come with me."

There is a big rock on the top of Piaomiao Mountain. Gu Yuanming likes to sit cross-legged there, basking in the sun during the day and the moon at night, breathing in the yin and yang energy of heaven and earth.

At this time, the old man with a Taoist look had his eyes closed and his legs crossed, but his face looked as if he was forty years old, calm and tight.

"Master."

Chu Li came and knelt down:

"Disciple greets Master."

Gu Yuanming slowly opened his eyes, looked at his well-behaved and lovely disciple lovingly, and waved his hand: "You are not well yet, get up quickly."

Chu Li stood up and greeted the eldest and third senior brothers next to him.

There are only four of them who are Gu Yuanming's direct disciples.

He also has outer disciples, but they only charge fees and give him some pointers, and they are not as close as his real disciples.

The eldest brother was a cold person, and it was rare for him to show a warm face to her:

"Junior brother, you haven't come to the sect for a long time."

The third senior brother was a devilish man, smiling at her like a woman: "Little junior brother, we saved you, this is a favor, and don't forget to give the silver for the medicine you took."

"???"

The originally warm atmosphere in the master's sect... now, it has woken Chu Li up with a blow.

Warmth?

She died once and her brain is not working well anymore, so she feels the warmth of her master.

This Piao Miao Gate is a rotten hole that only money can buy!

The three senior brothers were all orphans picked up by the master.

The martial arts practiced by the eldest brother requires a lot of nourishment. Who will pay for it?

She gave.

Second brother has been in poor health since he was young and is always sick. Who will get him medicine?

She caught.

The third brother is even more of a money-grubber. He has good cooking skills and loves to cook. Who will buy the groceries?

She bought it.

Chu Li stamped his feet immediately: "You are here just for my money!"

The third brother immediately straightened his face and waved his hand, saying, "Little brother, you are wrong. You are the richest person in the sect. If you distribute your assets to the other brothers, it means that the brothers are also rich."

"How do you do it?"

Chu Li was angry:

"You pay a copper coin, and I pay ten small gold bars. If we split it evenly, it means we each get five small gold bars, right?"

Too much!

The eldest brother touched the tip of his nose and said, "It's not impossible."

"?"

Chu Li was so angry that she cried: "Master, you are biased!"

She remembered.

I remember.

Back then, her uncle brought her to the master, but the master originally did not intend to accept her as a disciple. It was her uncle who privately told the master:

"You don't want it?"

"My nephew is the current ninth prince, and he is very rich."

Then, she became Gu Yuanming's personal disciple, with three senior brothers above her.

Gu Yuanming glared at him, "My disciple, don't talk nonsense. How could I be biased?"

"You taught your senior brothers martial arts skills and techniques, but you didn't teach me anything. You even teamed up to defraud me. They are very skilled in martial arts, but I can't even beat a guard!"

She is too naive.

During practice, her three senior brothers deliberately let her win, but she always believed that her martial arts skills were superb and unparalleled in the world.

If she had not gone to Nanman this time and experienced all the hardships, she would probably have been kept in the dark.

Gu Yuanming stood up and walked over:

"Let me ask you, when I ask you to do horse stance, every time you get halfway through, you go fishing in the stream?"

Chu Li was slightly dumb:

"This... You asked me to stay here for four hours without moving a muscle, I..."

"I asked you to sit cross-legged and practice the mind method, but every time you did that, you went to rob a bird's nest before you even had time to sit down."

"I...I've been sitting there for five or six hours, and my legs are numb."

"I asked you to practice swordsmanship, and you went to the woods to chase rabbits."

Gu Yuanming was disappointed: "You have always been a person who can't sit still since you were a child. You can't stay quiet for more than two quarters of an hour. I saw that you couldn't concentrate on martial arts and liked to catch chickens and chase ducks, so I taught you the archery method of shooting arrows through a willow tree from a hundred miles away."

To be honest, Chu Li's archery skills are indeed very good.

During last year's autumn hunting trip, she shot and killed the brown bear that had injured people.

"Xiao Jiu, there are so many martial arts in the world, no one can be perfect. Let's look at your eldest brother. He has strong internal strength, but is prone to inner demons. Your second brother is an excellent swordsman, but he has been weak since childhood and is not suitable for fighting. Your third brother is so skilled in lightness that he can walk on snow without leaving any trace, but his martial arts skills are a little lacking."

"You love to play, but you have learned the art of shooting an arrow through a hundred miles, which is already a unique skill for you to have."

Chu Li touched his head.

That seems to be the case.

So, she misunderstood her master?

"But Master, although I am an accurate archer, I can only fight from a distance. If I fight at close range, I can't beat anyone at all."

"Please teach me some other unique skills!"

This time, she will be able to keep calm and study patiently.

Gu Yuanming looked at her sharp and studious eyes and said, "Any unique skill requires time to hone. Can you be patient and stay in Piaomiao Mountain for ten or eight years?"

this……

Ten or eight years?

Chu Li bit her lower lip lightly.

This is too long.

Gu Yuanming knew that she was a person who could not stay still. She could not learn some secrets and martial arts, but, "How about I teach you a turtle breathing skill?"

"Master, what is the Turtle Breathing Technique?"

"The Turtle Breathing Technique can hold the breath for several hours. Once you reach a certain level, you can even hold the breath for seven days, creating the illusion of death."

Chu Li stared:

“What’s the point of me learning this?”

When fighting, it would be convenient for her to lie down and pretend to be dead?

"Everything must exist for a reason, otherwise, why would so many people study it?" Gu Yuanming said righteously.

"The biggest taboo for a disciple is to question the master!"

"I dare not!"

Playing is playing, making noise is making noise, but Chu Li actually respects his master and his school very much.

"Thank you Master for your teachings, disciple."

Gu Yuanming waved his hand: "I didn't teach you the Turtle Breathing Technique myself. It's not my strong point. You have to ask your uncle to teach you."

Uncle master?

She has been a disciple for eight or nine years, how come she doesn’t know that she has an uncle-master?

"Yun Chu, invite my uncle here."

"Yes, Master."

Chu Li knelt on the ground and turned his head curiously, and saw Lu Yunchu walking towards him holding an old turtle with a black and green shell.

Her eyes widened.

Because it is the turtle breathing technique, does that mean we need a turtle to teach us?

"Master, are you teasing me on purpose?"

Gu Yuanming's face turned serious: "Don't talk nonsense! Hurry up and pay your respects to your Uncle Turtle. It's older than your father."
