"Venerable Liu Nian, we were hiding in the clouds earlier. How did that huge dragon ghost mask discover us in an instant?" Gu Hai looked at Venerable Liu Nian curiously.
"It is because of me and Shangguan Hen. Although we managed to avoid the dragons after we left, the ghost mask left a trace of the dragon's fragrance on us. It was very faint, so we did not pay much attention to it. However, ghosts are very clear about this and instantly discovered us. However, don't worry. I have a way to get rid of the dragon's fragrance on me. It won't happen again," Venerable Liu Nian said solemnly.
Gu Hai nodded and said, "That's good. Let's return to the city first. I need to prepare some things to fish for dragons."
At the side, Mu Chenfeng and the others revealed puzzled expressions.
Everyone returned to the city. Although Mu Chenfeng was no longer participating in the zither recital, he was extremely curious about Gu Hai's so-called dragon fishing. He had been paying close attention to it.
Gu Hai did not hide anything from him. After returning, Xiao Chen bought two things in bulk.
Cuttlefish and lotus roots!
When Mu Chenfeng saw piles of cuttlefish and lotus roots being delivered to Gu Hai, he appeared confused. Cuttlefish? Lotus roots? Dragons do not like to eat cuttlefish, much less lotus roots. How do I fish for them?
Although Mu Chenfeng was filled with curiosity, he was too embarrassed to ask. He had already avoided it. How could he have the face to ask?
"Hah!" Mu Chenfeng sighed softly.
On a floating island in a manor in Silver Moon City:
Mo Yike sat in front of a desk in a small courtyard as documents were delivered to him.
The manager, Jiang Tianyi, stood respectfully at the side. Although he had lost the number one zither pavilion, Mo Yike did not punish him too much. After all, Jiang Tianyi still had some talent.
"Is there news?" Mo Yike asked sullenly.
"Yes, Mr. Mo. Everyone in the city has been searching everywhere and finally found out about that group of people! The leader seemed to be called 'Sima Changkong'! You were the first to buy Gu Hai's piano! "Jiang Tianyi said respectfully.
"Sima Changkong?" Mo Yike narrowed his eyes.
"Uh, Mr. Mo knows him?" Jiang Tianyi asked, confused.
Mo Yike narrowed his eyes and said, "How could I not know? The leader of this generation of the Sima Family, hehe, he actually came to Silver Moon City to investigate? It looks like the situation is a bit of a headache. Does he have the qualification card for the Guqin Conference? "
"Yes!"
"Yes? No wonder the Old Manor Lord held the Guqin Recital Conference in the Silver Moon Sea. So, so that's why! Old Manor Master, Old Manor Master, you really put in a lot of effort to protect Silver Moon Villa! "Mo Yike's face darkened.
Solemnly, Jiang Tianyi asked, "Sir, do you want to take down Sima Changkong secretly?"
"No need. You might not be able to take him down. Also, with his ability, if he were to hide, you wouldn't be able to get any information about him. But, you found him? Heh! "Mo Yike narrowed his eyes.
"Huh? Sima Changkong exposed himself on purpose? Why? "
"There's no reason. Sima Changkong is in the light, but there must be someone else in the dark. Even if we catch Sima Changkong, the other people in the dark can't do anything about it!"
"But why did he expose himself?"
"He's showing me his sword. Heh, he's forcing me to not meet him face to face. Wherever he goes, I have to avoid him! If he wants to investigate something, I'm not allowed to stop him! "Mo Yike said in a low voice.
"Why?"
"Because he's the king's representative, and I'm the minister's representative. The king and minister's identities have to be clear. Otherwise, it's disrespectful!" Mo Yike said in a low voice.
"Can we pretend not to know?"
"Pretend not to know? Heh heh, you think too easily! He's reminding me and forcing me to avoid him. He's pretending not to know, but if I don't know what's good for me and barge in, he'll tear apart this disguise and use the king's order against me. Do you think I should respect him or not? "Mo Yike said in a low voice.
"Uh!" Jiang Tianyi's face darkened.
"He has people in the light or in the dark entering the Silver Moon Ocean. It's the same for our people. I won't go to the Zither Giving Conference this time," Mo Yike said in a low voice.
"Yes!"
"Inform Ghost Face that the dragons are dormant. During the Zither Giving Conference, no one is allowed to come out of the ocean! The Silver Moon Ocean is huge. As long as they don't stir up trouble in that place, it's hard to find them, "Mo Yike said in a low voice.
"Yes!"
Ten days passed in the blink of an eye. The Zither Giving Conference officially began.
At this moment, a large number of xiuzhe had gathered around the Silver Moon Ocean. Although many xiuzhe could not participate, they still held on to a sliver of hope.
North of the Silver Moon Ocean, Silver Moon Island. At this moment, the fog spread. Many cranes carried the xiuzhe who obtained the invitation cards over.
At the entrance of the island, one needed to be certified to enter.
Long Wanqing, Shangguan Hen, and Venerable Liu Nian had already entered.
Only Gu Hai arrived late, arriving at the entrance.
The moment Gu Hai arrived, some of the nearby zither masters recognized him.
"Mr. Goode!" "Great Master Gu!"
Everyone greeted him. Gu Hai returned the greetings.
Some of the people who had not seen Gu Hai before looked at him curiously.
The Silver Moon Mountain Manor disciples stood guard at the entrance of the ritual array. When they saw the crowd greet Gu Hai, they knew that it was Gu Hai.
After all, how could the Silver Moon Mountain Manor disciples not recognize someone that even the old Manor Lord respected? Furthermore, they all looked at Gu Hai with friendly gazes.
When everyone showed their invitation cards and entered the ritual array, Gu Hai said Solemnly, "Greetings, Silver Moon Mountain Manor's Fellow Daoists. Many thanks to the old Manor Lord for allowing me to participate in the zither imparting conference. How is the old Manor Lord doing now?"
When others came, they all asked about the Heaven Grade zither Gouchen. Was Gouchen here? Only Gu Hai did not ask about Gouchen. Instead, he asked about the old Manor Lord's health. This immediately won him a good impression of the Silver Moon Mountain Manor disciples.
"Manor Lord, how are you doing? You often mention Mr. Goode's Canon and Pathetique. Today, Manor Lord will definitely be happy that Mr. Goode is here," a Silver Moon Mountain Manor disciple said with a smile.
"Right! That's good! "Gu Hai nodded.
Then, he followed the crowd into the inner area.
The Silver Moon Mountain Manor disciples did not check Gu Hai's invitation card and allowed Gu Hai to enter.
"Stop right there!" Suddenly, a shout rang out.
"Huh?" Everyone looked over.
Then, they saw Fairy Wan'er slowly walking over.
When the zither masters saw Fairy Wan'er, they all frowned. Discomfort flashed in their eyes.
"Gu Hai, he did not show his invitation card, and you let him in?" Fairy Wan'er shouted as she pointed at Gu Hai.
"Huh?" Everyone looked at Fairy Wan'er in confusion.
"I have been here for a long time. Earlier, a monk and an Elite Hall Master took Gu Hai's invitation card and entered. Each invitation card had a different mark. I saw it clearly. Gu Hai did not have an invitation card, and you let him in so openly?" Fairy Wan'er said coldly.
"How can Great Master Gu not have an invitation card?"
"That's right! Witch, don't speak nonsense!"
…
…
…
The zither masters immediately defended Gu Hai and shouted angrily.
The Silver Moon Mountain Manor disciples frowned slightly. Just as they were about to speak, Gu Hai smiled faintly and said, "Fairy Wan'er? Unexpectedly, we meet again! "
"Humph!" Fairy Wan'er snorted coldly.
"Fairy Wan'er, do you think that I, Gu Hai, am not qualified to enter?" Gu Hai asked Fairy Wan'er with a smile.
"Of course, you are not qualified. You can't even play the zither. You do not have an invitation card. Why should I let you in? You do not have the zither. You can fool others, but you cannot fool me. I have seen through you long ago! "Fairy Wan'er shouted.
Fairy Wan'er was telling the truth. With her sharp insight, Fairy Wan'er had already seen that Gu Hai did not have the zither. She had completely vented the resentment of her last defeat. Last time, Gu Hai embarrassed her. She also embarrassed Gu Hai once.
Everyone looked at Gu Hai doubtfully.
"Hahahahaha, Fairy Wan'er, this is not a joke. I know you are resentful because you lost to me last time, but can't you find a better reason? Do you think everyone will believe your reason? Hahaha! "Gu Hai laughed in a carefree manner.
Everyone was slightly stunned.
"That's right. Witch, your excuse is too lousy. Master Gu does not have the zither. Are you kidding? If he does not, how could you lose to Master Gu? "
"That's right. If Master Gu does not have the zither, I will eat my harmonica."
"You don't even know how to lie. Witch, is your IQ so low?"
…
…
…
Everyone immediately scolded. Fairy Wan'er was about to vomit blood. You bunch of blind people. You can't see it yourself. Why are you blindly making a fuss?
Gu Hai spoke again at the right time, "Fairy Wan'er, I know you want Gouchen, but please use the proper method. The Old Manor Master will make a fair decision. What's the point of using this crooked method?"
"So the witch is afraid of Gu Hai. That's why she slandered Gu Hai!"
"So it's because of Gouchen? How insidious, witch! "
…
…
…
The group of zither players immediately scolded Fairy Wan'er again. Fairy Wan'er felt wronged. "I'm telling the truth, okay?"
At this time, a disciple of the Silver Moon Villa frowned and said, "Fairy Wan'er, last time you plotted to kill the whole city, the Manor Master made an exception and gave you the qualification card. I hope you cherish it."
Obviously, the disciple of the Silver Moon Villa could not stand Fairy Wan'er's unscrupulous means to get Gouchen.
"Mr. Goode, please come in!" Another disciple of the Silver Moon Villa led the way for Gu Hai directly.
Fairy Wan'er was stunned to see Gu Hai enter the formation. She was constantly scolded by a group of people. She suddenly stamped her foot angrily and said, "Gu Hai, I'm not done with you!"
Gu Hai walked in without any psychological burden. He was not angry with Fairy Wan'er. Although what she said was true, she should be very angry at this moment.
On a huge square, Gu Hai met with Long Wanqing and others.
There were a large number of zither players in twos and threes. They were chatting with each other.
There was a thatched hut in the north of the square. A large number of disciples of the Silver Moon Villa stood outside the hut. Yun Mo also stood respectfully outside the hut, as if he was guarding the hut.
"Gouchen is in this hut?"
"I haven't seen a Heaven-level zither before. I wonder what it looks like."
"The Old Manor Master is also in the hut, right?"
…
…
…
There was a lot of discussion around.
Gu Hai and others were looking for Castellan He.
"He Shikang is not here yet!" Long Wanqing shook her head.
