Chapter 2 Little Li's Divine Blade, Unrivaled Under Heaven
Chapter 2 Little Li's Divine Blade, Unrivaled Under Heaven
Snowflakes fly for thousands of miles, and the cold wind is like a knife!
Gu Yu trudged through the thick snow, heading eastward.
[Daily Intelligence: Not far ahead, there is an abandoned temple by the roadside, where Afei is resting.]
This is an intelligence feature included with the system, which provides one piece of intelligence randomly every day.
"hooligan?"
There may be many people in the world named Afei, but Gu Yu believed that the intelligence was referring to the Afei who was jokingly called "A dog can enter, but Afei can't."
Great, time to go earn Fate Points!
After walking a short distance, we indeed saw an abandoned mountain god temple, covered by thick snow.
Inside the hall, a young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, dressed in thin clothes, sat by the fire, gnawing on a dry, hard flatbread.
Beside him was a sword. To be precise, it was just a piece of iron a little over three feet long, without even a hilt, only two pieces of cork nailed to it.
Gu Yu strode into the temple and shook the snow off his clothes.
He then walked to the fire, cupped his hands in a respectful gesture, and smiled at Ah Fei: "Brother, may I borrow your fire to warm myself?"
"random."
Ah Fei responded.
"Thank you!" Gu Yu sat down cross-legged, took out a tin wine pot from his bag and handed it over: "Brother, have a few sips to warm yourself up."
Ah Fei shook his head: "I can't afford it!"
Gu Yu laughed and said, "I'll treat you to a drink; you don't need to pay for it."
Ah Fei still shook his head: "I will never take anything that I didn't buy myself, and I will never drink wine that I didn't buy myself."
What a proud and aloof young man!
But this proud and aloof young man gradually degenerated into the "number one simp" after meeting Lin Xian'er.
Of course, now that Gu Yu has transmigrated, whether for the sake of destiny points or out of sympathy, he will never let A Fei repeat the same mistakes.
He wants to completely change Ah Fei's fate!
Gu Yu glanced at A Fei's sword subconsciously and smiled, "If I may ask, brother, have you ever killed anyone?"
Ah Fei shook his head: "Killing isn't a pleasant thing, but some people really deserve to die!"
"In that case, young brother, could you kill someone who deserves to die for me?"
"Fifty taels!"
Ah Fei's quick response surprised Gu Yu.
The next sentence, could it be that we have to pay more?
Gu Yu laughed and said, "You agreed without even asking who you were going to kill?"
Ah Fei said earnestly, "You just said it yourself, kill someone who deserves to die!"
There's another point: he has an innate keen sense and can distinguish between good and evil. He could sense that Gu Yu might not be a good person, but he was certainly not a bad one either.
"Haha, that's great! May I ask your name, brother?"
Ah Fei remained silent for a while before saying, "People who know me call me Ah Fei!"
"Ah Fei!" Gu Yu nodded. "Yes, I believe this name will definitely resound throughout the martial arts world!"
Upon hearing this, Ah Fei beamed with joy and held out his hand: "Give me the wine, it's on me. You can deduct it from your payment later."
"Alright, it's settled then!" Gu Yu handed over the wine pot, introducing himself at the same time, "My surname is Gu, and my given name is Yu, the Yu of Xiang Yu!"
Afei uncorked the bottle, took a sip of wine, and laughed, "Gu Yu! I'll remember you. I also believe your name will resound throughout the martial world!"
He was new to the ways of the world and knew nothing of human relationships or social customs. He was not one to flatter others; he simply spoke from his own heart.
"Hahaha, okay, let's drink!"
Gu Yu was also very happy. He took out the wine flask at his waist and took a big gulp.
[Successfully intervened in Afei's storyline, slightly altering his fate trajectory, and gained 100 Fate Points]
After taking a sip of wine, a message flashed through Gu Yu's mind, making him even more overjoyed.
Previously, killing the Thousand-Handed Rakshasa only earned 80 points, but now, sitting with A-Fei by the fire, chatting, and drinking, I've gained 100 points.
This is the fundamental difference between a protagonist and a supporting character!
I now have 260 Destiny Points, and I only need 40 more to advance "Nine Yang Divine Skill" to the third level.
I checked the system interface again, and the world progress had increased from 6% to 7%.
The snow has finally stopped.
When Gu Yu and A Fei hurriedly headed to the inn in the small town, they unexpectedly encountered Li Xunhuan and his group on the way.
"Ah Fei, quick, hide!"
"Um?"
Afei frowned, but still followed Gu Yu's instructions and hid in the snowy forest by the roadside.
A carriage was parked by the roadside, and Li Xunhuan stood beside it with his servant Tie Chuanjia.
On the other side of the road stood two old men, one with one arm and the other with a limp.
There were also four men of varying heights and menacing appearances, all in their thirties or forties, dressed in brightly colored clothes, acting like mischievous children, laughing and joking, making faces, which was nauseating.
"Who are those four strange guys?"
Ah Fei couldn't help but ask in a low voice.
Gu Yu replied in a low voice, "They are disciples of the Five Poisons Child, the master of the Blissful Cave in Miao territory. They are ruthless and skilled in using poison, especially in using poisonous insects to kill people invisibly."
In the arena, Li Xunhuan laughed and said, "I have only been in the pass for less than half a month, but I did not expect that Chief Escort Cha of the Golden Lion Escort Agency and Mr. Yu the Shadowless would both come to see me. I am truly honored."
Cha Meng replied, "I have long admired the name of Young Master Li, the third-ranked scholar. It is a great pleasure to meet you today!"
Yu Erguaizi then addressed the four children of Jiledong, saying, "I suppose you've all heard of Little Li's Divine Saber, unparalleled in the world; every strike he makes never misses!"
Li Xunhuan smiled and said, "Everyone, please rest assured. My second strike wasn't very skillful, and one strike is definitely not enough to kill six people."
"Li Tanhua, you've misunderstood. I heard that the Azure Blood Twin Serpents killed our镖局's chief镖头 (bodyguard) Zhuge Lei and镖师 Zhao Er, and it was Li Tanhua who did it..."
Before Cha Meng could finish speaking, Li Xunhuan waved his hand: "The Azure Blood Twin Serpents were indeed killed by me, but not for Zhuge the镖头 (镖头 is a type of镖头 is a term used to describe镖师 is a type of ...) and Zhao the二镖师 (镖师 is a type
At this moment, Yu Erguaizi couldn't help but say, "Li Tanhua, let's not beat around the bush. We've come here only to ask you to return Zhuge Lei's package."
"A package?" Li Xunhuan frowned.
"That's right!" Cha Meng nodded. "That package was entrusted to our Golden Lion Escort Agency by someone else. If anything goes wrong, our agency's decades-long reputation will be ruined."
Ah Fei asked again in a low voice, "What exactly is in that package? Why are they making such a fuss?"
Gu Yu replied, "If I'm not mistaken, it should be the Golden Silk Armor."
"Golden silk armor?"
Clearly, Afei was somewhat unfamiliar with the Golden Silk Armor.
I'll explain it to you slowly later.
At this moment, Tie Chuanjia, who had remained silent until now, could no longer hold back and shouted angrily, "Nonsense! When has my young master ever taken Zhuge Lei's package?"
Li Xunhuan raised his hand, signaling Tie Chuanjia not to speak.
Cha Meng then said, "I earnestly request Brother Li to return the package; I will certainly repay you handsomely!"
Li Xunhuan thought for a moment and replied, "Since you are convinced that the package is with me, I will give you an answer in one hour."
"Very well, Scholar Li is always a man of his word, we will wait for an hour."
Cha Meng replied, then raised his hand and led the group away in a long stride.
As soon as the other person left, Tie Chuanjia couldn't help but ask, "Young Master, you clearly didn't take the package, why did you admit to it?"
Li Xunhuan sighed, "Even if I say I didn't take it, they will never believe me. I might as well use this time to find the person who stole the package."
In the woods, Gu Yu patted A Fei on the shoulder and pointed in the direction Cha Meng and the others had left: "Let's go!"
After walking for a while, Afei couldn't help but say, "You asked me to kill the Azure Blood Twin Serpents, but they are already dead. I'll return the silver to you."
"No!" Gu Yu shook his head and smiled, "This time, even more people were killed..."
"Oh?"
"Don't worry, we'll add more money!"
Upon hearing this, Afei nodded in satisfaction.
After walking a short distance, we saw a small tavern at the foot of the mountain.
Cha Meng and the others had already entered the tavern and were sitting around the table discussing how to deal with Li Xunhuan.
The boy in yellow said, "Although Li Xunhuan has a great reputation, can't all of us handle him?"
"That's right, didn't he admit it himself? The second cut wasn't very skillful."
Yu Erguaizi slowly said, "So, who will be the first to be cut?"
After a moment of silence, the boy in green laughed and said, "Why don't we just poison him?"
Suddenly, the curtain was lifted, and two young men walked in, accompanied by a gust of cold wind.
As soon as he entered, Gu Yu quickly scanned the room and finally spotted a man wearing a purple satin fur coat with floral patterns and a tuft of black hair by his ear.
it's him!
Gu Yu's heart finally settled down.
This man was another bodyguard who accompanied Zhuge Lei, named Hong Hanmin.
In the original storyline, it was this guy who took advantage of the chaos to steal the package containing the golden silk armor...
