#168 - Look for the reasons in yourself
“How childish.”
Gu An shook his head and sighed.
Attacking houses, he only did that when he was a child.
For him now, this was not important.
Nowadays, most people complained about him and were hostile to him.
The people above didn't want him to have an easy time either.
But no one should dare to come openly yet.
Although he didn't know how that woman did it, at least that elder wouldn't dare to act within three years.
In that case, he just needed to be careful.
In three years, he would improve his cultivation as soon as possible. Maybe that elder would have a change of heart after three years?
As for those inferior to him.
That would be even better.
He wasn't worried about these people harming him, he was worried about them being nice to him.
After simply building a house for himself, Gu An found some noodles.
The pool had also been attacked, but the noodles had extremely high hiding abilities.
It wouldn't be affected.
He gave the noodles a taste of what Chu Meng had left behind and found that it didn't resist at all.
In this way, it should be non-toxic.
When the room was almost built, Gu An began to cultivate.
Now everyone knew that he was already a Golden Core cultivator.
If they were to attack, it would probably be these kinds of strong people.
For the sake of safety, he still had to improve his cultivation first.
Only when his strength reached a level that others couldn't imagine would he be safer.
As for whether or not to continue being this knife...
At least he had to let the person wielding the knife not know how sharp this knife really was.
And if he wanted to break free, he still had to解开the poison on his body.
It wasn't that he couldn't do things, at least his life and death had to be in his own hands.
The next day.
Early July.
Gu An received his resources.
Thirty spirit stones and a bottle of pills.
Only thirty spirit stones, that was quite stingy.
But the pills were quite valuable.
Back at his residence, Gu An decided to take office the day after tomorrow.
The other party gave him three days to take office.
But just as he returned to his residence, he found that the small wooden house he had just built had turned into ruins again.
Looking at the ruins, Gu An sighed and turned to go to the Deacon Hall.
Ordinary affairs of Thousand Dust Peak were managed by the Deacon Hall.
When Gu An arrived, many people looked over.
Gu An didn't know who to look for, so he found a man with the highest cultivation.
“Senior brother.” Gu An saluted.
The other party sat by the table and looked at Gu An with some doubt: “What's the matter?”
Gu An put a small box on the other party's table and said: “My residence was destroyed.”
“Destroyed?” The other party glanced at the box, pushed it back, and said casually: “Just rebuild it.”
“Rebuilding it was destroyed again.” Gu An added another box and pushed it over.
The other party looked at the box, and then said: “Who destroyed it?”
“I don't know.” Gu An shook his head.
“Then rebuild it and see, if it's destroyed again, you can come and find me.” The other party said, pushing the box back again.
Looking at the other party's actions, Gu An felt that the other party was not buying it, so he took back the box and said:
“If it's destroyed again, what does senior brother plan to do?”
“Of course, I have to see what you have done recently, otherwise why would others destroy yours and not others'?
You're right? There's always a reason for everything, right?” The other party said with a smile.
Gu An looked at the person in front of him.
Early stage of Golden Core, looked about forty years old.
He looked younger than himself, but that was hard to say.
And the other party should be happy to see his situation.
“You don't have to look at me like that, we don't know who did it either, we have to do things according to the rules.
You take another look, if it's still destroyed, come back tomorrow.” The other party said calmly, looking at Gu An.
Gu An nodded.
Finally, he turned and left.
After searching for a while among various residences, Gu An stood in front of a rather nice courtyard, condensed the镇海拳, (calming the sea fist)
Then he punched out.
Boom!
A loud noise came, and the other party's house turned into a pile of rubble.
With that, Gu An turned and left.
The next day.
Gu An continued to go to the Deacon Hall.
He was still looking for that senior brother.
The moment he saw Gu An, the originally calm senior brother now had a strong look of anger in his eyes.
“Did you do it?” He said in a low voice.
The others also looked over.
Gu An pretended to be puzzled: “What does senior brother mean?”
“Did you destroy my residence?” The man asked angrily.
“Senior brother is slandering me. In addition, senior brother's residence was destroyed. You can think about whether you have done anything recently. Why are other people's houses okay, but senior brother's house has a problem? You should look for the reason on yourself.” Gu An said.
The man was stunned in place. Wasn't this what he said yesterday?
“You...” The man was silent for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said:
“You go back and build a new residence, or choose a new one. We will send someone to watch and will not let anyone take the opportunity to destroy it.”
Gu An bowed: “Thank you, senior brother.”
With that, he gave two more boxes.
This time the other party did not refuse.
Consider it as receiving some compensation.
After coming out, Gu An sighed.
The matter of the residence was over.
Although it was troublesome, it also wasted some spirit stones.
But it should be stable for a while.
He would go to Peak Outside the Peak to take office tomorrow.
Peak Outside the Peak was still within the sect's range, a mountain peak closer to the outer sect.
That was the place where transactions were made with other sects.
The main transactions were spirit wood and building construction.
In addition, there was also a logging forest there.
But Gu An didn't know what kind of logging forest it was.
Anyway, it was good to be able to log wood.
The pressure from Thousand Dust Peak would make many things inconvenient for him later.
There might even be assassination attempts against him in secret,
But life still had to go on.
He could only take it one step at a time. In addition, his cultivation should stay where it was, so that those people could rest assured.
Improving it would make people worry.
An enemy who wouldn't improve was a good enemy.
Evening.
Yang Qi secretly ran to find him.
He said that he had learned something from his fellow villagers, that the peaks would not take action openly for the time being.
But if there were people who were familiar with him and had good relationships, they would definitely be targeted.
There might even be danger.
He also said that his fellow villagers wouldn't let him get close.
Gu An was quite surprised that it would involve the people close to him.
Fortunately, he didn't have such people around him,
Yang Qi was quite familiar, but he had a fellow villager in the Enforcement Hall, so he should be fine.
Yu Tu didn't often communicate with him either,
He should be okay too.
After that, Yang Qi also said that if there was any news, he would secretly come and tell him again, and then he left.
Gu An felt that the other party was also playing with fire, which could easily cause problems.
But his situation reminded him of Hua Jiyang.
The original Hua Jiyang was somewhat similar to him, and getting close to him would cause trouble.
Not to mention helping the other party.
“I wonder how Hua Jiyang is doing.”
Gu An could only sigh and build a wooden house.
He trimmed the big tree and used it as a landscape in the yard, and then simply built a house.
He could only slowly repair it little by little.
In the middle of the night, he suddenly heard a wa le wa le sound.
Turning his head, he saw that it was Noodles bringing a paper figure over.
“Bringing a paper figure again?”
Noodles was good at bringing things back, and paper figures were also a kind of thing.
And the paper figure almost represented Hua Jiyang.
This made him extremely curious and also a little expectant.
He wanted to see what Hua Jiyang would send.
Of course, his spirit stones might not be safe.
