Chapter 174: Old Man of the Gu Family
Tianqiang's voice was indeed not very good, and several men in black behind him almost laughed.
Bai Qing was stunned for a moment, but did not interrupt Tianqiang's self-absorption.
And Tianqiang saw that Bai Qing did not object, thinking that he had guessed correctly, and the singing was changed.
"The evening breeze blows the willow flute, and the sunset is outside the mountains; The end of the sky, the corner of the earth, the acquaintance is half scattered....... ”
None of Tianqiang's singing voices are in precise tune, but the words are remembered very clearly.
"It's a good song," Bai Qing said against his will, pointing to the note, "Does it just have anything to do with this?" ”
Tianqiang's singing stopped, and he began to feel a little excited in his heart.
"Isn't that right? No, why not stop me? Tianqiang thought in his heart but said in his mouth: "Mr. Bai, what I sang is the same as on the note, right?" ”
Bai Qing picked up the quilt in front of him and took a sip of water, and said slowly, "What do you think?" ”
Tianqiang was also a little confused, how do I know what you have to ask?
Bai Qing took a few bites of food and then said: "Look at it, how can the three words 'ancient roadside' be a song, he must be a place name or a person's name, think about whether there is such a place or person in Tianjiu!" ”
Bai Qing wasn't sure, but his guess reminded Tianqiang.
"Place names? First name? Tianqiang pondered and shook his head, then nodded, "Oh, by the way, it seems that there is such a person, the old man of the Gu family is this name, but the one you took seems to have little to do with him." ”
Old man of the Gu family, this is Tianqiang's respectful title, he couldn't imagine that there could be any connection between the two.
"Okay, I know, this matter is over!" Bai Qing stuffed the note on his body, "I still have something to do, let's stop here today, if I have time, I will go to your place to teach you a few tricks, hey, the back, don't stand still, come over and eat." ”
After Bai Qing finished speaking, he left in Tianqiang's puzzled eyes.
None of the people behind moved, Tianqiang made a gesture of waving forward, and everyone sat down at the table to eat.
Old man of the ancient family, Bai Qing is very unfamiliar with this title, I can't imagine that a person like Tianqiang still has respect for others, but where is this person and how to find it? If you want to blame, you can only blame the last time I went down the mountain to be misunderstood by that Liu Ruyan, and I lost the note that he didn't even look at, which was written very clearly, but this time, the master only gave a hint.
Bai Qing knew Master's intentions, this was testing him, the longer the time dragged on, the more unfavorable it became, maybe the Master had already contacted others, if he couldn't find this person as soon as possible, what was the use of those things he was proficient in?
"On the side of the ancient road, on the side of the ancient road, where are you?" On the car back, Bai Qing muttered all the way.
"Are you looking for this person? Don't you know the old man of the ancient family in Tianjiu? The old man of the Gu family is famous, he was ...... back then, and now the Gu family is not good, what are the Liu family and the Dongfang family, but the Gu family is still half the sky in Tianjiu," the middle-aged driver opened the chatterbox and did not close it, and glanced back at Bai Qing, "It's no wonder, you are so young, of course you haven't heard of the deeds of the Gu family." ”
I really didn't find the broken shoes, and it didn't take much effort to get there.
"Master, do you know this person?" Bai Qing suddenly became interested.
"Tianjiu is like me, there is no one at my age who doesn't know him, but I know him, he doesn't know me." The driver's eyebrows fluttered, even if people didn't know him, it was a glorious thing.
"Do you know where he lives?" Bai Qing asked again.
"The Ancient Manor." The driver then added, "But I advise you not to go, that place is not just for anyone." ”
"That's right, thank you then."
Bai Qing didn't go back to his small courtyard, but went directly to the vegetable market, fortunately Xiao Cheng was still there.
"How much is one?" A female customer with a fat head and big ears asked, pointing to a fat goose.
"This one, fifty, big sister, do you want it?" Xiao Cheng replied with a smile.
"Okay, that's it." The fat head and big ears never bargained, paid the money, and left with the old goose's neck.
"Get me one of these, too!" Bai Qing followed.
Xiao Cheng was still immersed in the deal that had just been made, and he didn't see Bai Qing standing in front of him.
"Okay, but it's gone, I'll ......." The moment Xiao Cheng looked up, he realized that it was Bai Qing, "Why are you?" If you want to eat, just say it, I'll send it to you, why did you let you come over in person, did you finish eating last time? ”
Xiao Cheng said honestly, all from the bottom of his heart, without any pretentiousness.
"Brother Xiao, let me tell you something, I'm going to leave for a while now, that small courtyard is not inhabited for the time being, it's a pity that it's empty, you don't have to rent a house, this is the key, your family can move over." Bai Qingbian said and handed the door key to Xiao Cheng's hand.
"How can this work?" Xiao Cheng said with a smile.
After three or five rounds of postponement, Xiao Cheng still compromised and happily invited Bai Qing to his house for dinner.
Bai Qing had just eaten it, and he was not hungry, so he asked casually, "Brother Xiao, do you know that there is an ancient road side in Tianjiu?" ”
"I know, the old man of the Gu family, he lives in the Gu family manor, why did you suddenly ask about this." Xiao Cheng replied inadvertently.
Bai Qing was very surprised in his heart, how could there be such a character in Tianjiu that even people like Xiao Cheng knew, but he didn't know.
"Oh, it's nothing, I heard someone mention it today, so I asked," Bai Qing also replied casually, "Brother Xiao, I'm in a hurry, I'll go back and clean up now, so I won't bother." ”
Before Xiao Cheng could send him, Bai Qing was gone.
Such a famous person Bai Qing has been here in Tianjiu for so long, and he has never heard of it, it is really a failure, such a person Bai Qing really wants to meet immediately.
Back in the small courtyard, Bai Qing packed a few clothes, he guessed that when he saw the old man of the Gu family, he would definitely not go back here, since the master asked him to go, there was naturally a reason for it, only when he saw people, everything would be understood.
Out of the courtyard door, Bai Qing glanced back at the small courtyard, then locked the door, didn't take a few steps, suddenly remembered something in his heart, and couldn't help but stop.
"It's bad, what if the 'Gu Daobian' on the note has nothing to do with this old man of the Gu family? It wasn't for nothing. Bai Qing quickly thought, "Since this is a clue, let's try it first, in case it has anything to do with it!" ”
"Gu Family Manor, are you going?" It was already the tenth car, and the nine cars in front ran away when they heard that the Gu Family Manor didn't give Bai Qing a chance.
"Yes, five hundred." The driver was ruthless.
Bai Qing was very sad, he only realized how important money was to him now, he didn't expect it to be so expensive to go to this place, if it wasn't for Tianqiang's sponsorship, he would really have to go.
"Okay, five hundred is five hundred, let's go." Bai Qing gritted his teeth and got into the car.
"Let me warn you first, I don't want to get off the bus a kilometer away from the manor, I don't want to go to anything." The driver said kindly.
Bai Qing let out a "hmm", and began to wonder in his heart again, "Can't you send it to me inside?" The university is still open, and the manor is not as big as the university, so it should not be small. ”
The car ran fast, but it didn't arrive so fast, out of Tianjiu, out of the suburbs, and finally stopped in a place where no one was there.
Bai Qing wanted to cry very much, he didn't see a shadow of the house, but the driver also ran away, and he couldn't go back if he wanted to.
A kilometer, he didn't even know the direction.
groped his way forward, and finally saw a big sign nailed to the tree by the edge of a forest - Gujia Manor.
I knew it was such a ghost place, Bai Qing said that he wouldn't come here, but now it's good, the things are packed up very well.
Behind the big sign is a small road, and it takes less than a kilometer to turn a corner before stepping on the small road.
The seclusion is good, and no one would have thought that there would be people living here.
"Anyone?" Bai Qing patted the door of the small western-style building and shouted.
The sound traveled far away, breaking the tranquility of the countryside, not the countryside, but the wilderness.
"Who? What for? There was a roar of shouting from inside.
Someone opened the door and looked at Bai Qing with fierce eyes.
"Looking for whom?" The man had a short inch, a serious face, and looked at Bai Qing with a wary heart.
"I'm looking for Old Man Gu." Bai Qing had never been so cowardly, and handed over the note.
"Wait." The man took the note and slammed the door shut.
After waiting for a while, the door opened again, and it was still the same short inch, and immediately changed into a smiling face and asked, "Are you Bai Qing?" ”
Bai Qing nodded.
"Come in!"
Bai Qing entered the gate, only to realize how wide the inside of the western-style building was.
This is the real ancient family manor, the western-style building is just a door, a large courtyard appears in front of you, through a long wall screen, behind it is a row of houses that turn bricks and concrete, there are many big trees, except for the western-style building just now, all the buildings are no more than two floors, and all are built in the woods.
To the right of the gate is a large parking lot with several luxury cars parked on it.
To the right of the parking lot is a wide road, and Bai Qing knows that there is the main entrance.
After the parking lot, there is a large courtyard in front of it, and a tiled house with a living room written on it.
Short Cun took him into the house and said, "Mr. Bai, let's wait here, Old Man Gu is meeting guests." ”
Short Cun shouted softly outside the door, "Someone". Immediately, there was a young woman wearing bubbles and came to pour tea and water.
Bai Qing put his burden on the ground, picked up the tea and squinted at it and tasted it.
"Old man, thank you for your advice, I am also an old friend with Gu Jun, thank you very much this time." A middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes with Sven eyes held the hand of an old man and said.
"As long as you are doing well, I won't send you away, there are still guests here." The old man said.
The two exchanged a few words in the courtyard, and after the man in the suit left, Bai Qing carefully looked at the old man in the man's mouth.
An emaciated figure, dark skin, a wrinkled face, pulling a pair of cloth shoes, covered with mud, and half rolled up trouser legs, watching the man in a suit leave.
Is this the legendary old man of the ancient family?
