Volume 1 Don't Use the Hidden Dragon Chapter 68 The Past
After drinking a bowl of hot tea, Gu Xuan let out a comfortable breath, suddenly pressed his hand on the hilt of the sword, and slowly spoke: "I remember clearly, it is not your two who run this tea house. ”
The gray-clothed young man tied the horse rope and was walking from the side, he couldn't help but pause, and shouted in a lost voice: "The guest officer has something to say, don't move the sword." ”
The middle-aged man's expression was grim, but he didn't panic, his eyes became sharp, his muscles tightened, and he asked calmly: "Could it be that the guest officer knows Gu Ren?"
Gu Xuan was a little surprised, he didn't expect the other party to know his father, so he immediately withdrew his right hand and poured tea with a pot.
The gray-clothed young man secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly stood beside the middle-aged man, staring at Gu Xuan vigilantly.
Gu Xuan put down the teapot, looked at the middle-aged man, and said expressionlessly: "Gu Ren is my cousin-in-law. ”
The middle-aged man was no longer on guard, and smiled a little: "It turns out that the guest officer is a distant relative of Gu Ren, in Xia Guping, this is the dog Gu An, who was Gu Ren's neighbor in Gujia Village in his early years. ”
Gu Ren's parents died early and he had no brothers and sisters, although Gu Xuan knew about Gujia Village, he had never been there, let alone seen Gu Ping's father and son.
Gu Xuan could see that Gu Ping was rough with his fists and feet, and his martial arts were powerful, and he really looked like a hunter with the momentum he had just revealed.
After taking a sip of tea, Gu Xuan asked knowingly: "Brother Tai, can you know the recent situation of Gu Ren's father and son?"
Gu Ping sighed lightly: "I was here to visit Gu Ren, but I didn't see anyone, and all kinds of traces show that Gu Ren Xing may no longer be alive." ”
Gu Xuan raised his eyebrows: "In the past few years, I have been practicing martial arts, I don't know when Brother Tai came to Chaliao?"
Gu Ping secretly calculated: "For nearly half a year, the tea house was not locked at that time, the food had already been moldy, and there were hoes and tea sets on the Gumu Cliff, Gu Ren might fall off the cliff, or ...... Victimized. ”
"How so?"
Gu Xuan's eyes narrowed slightly, Gu Ping mentioned the Lonely Eye Cliff, and he didn't know if the other party had been to the cave.
After thinking about it, if Gu Ping got Wang Mang's storage bag, most of them would not and would not dare to stay here.
Gu Ping explained: "The hoe and tea set were placed on the edge of the cliff, the cliff was too steep, and only a short section was underneath, and traces of sharp blades were seen on the stone wall. ”
Gu Xuan's eyes flashed, revealing a little sadness: "In this way, my cousin and uncle have indeed encountered an accident. ”
Gu Ping further explained: "Half a year ago, a plague broke out in Gujia Village, most of the villagers died, and those who survived abandoned the village one after another. ”
Gu Xuan chuckled: "Brother Tai don't worry, I came here today just to drink dust tea." Since my cousin is no longer alive, I hope that my brother can continue to run the tea house. ”
Gu Ping smiled bitterly: "In addition to hunting ordinary beasts, I don't know how to do any other work, and it is a blessing to be able to live here, how do you call Brother Tai?"
"My surname is Huang Mingye. ”
Gu Xuan's name involves his father's feud and cannot be revealed yet.
"It turned out to be Brother Huang. Gu Ping arched his hand, "I was lucky enough to save your cousin's life back then." ”
"Oh?" Gu Xuan's expression moved, and he was very interested, "Can Brother Gu elaborate?"
"Absolutely. An'er, go pick up a pot of dust-washing tea again. ”
Gu Ping commanded, and when he saw Gu An turn away, he began to tell.
"In Xia and Gu Ren's blood and strength back then, on the way to hunt, he encountered a group of gangsters who tried to violate Xiao Li, so he shot angrily, and finally killed the gangsters, and was stabbed twice in the arm, and Gu Ren's right tendon was cut. ”
Gu Xuan didn't know much about his mother's past, listened very carefully, and refused to miss a word.
Seeing Gu Ping pause, Gu Xuan nodded and said, "My cousin is indeed lame, it turns out that it was caused by the hero saving the beauty." ”
"Xiao Li claimed to be the maid of a rich family, because the young master offended the samurai, the rich master was worried about being destroyed, so he dismissed all his subordinates. ”
Gu Anti came to wash the dust tea, simply sat on the side, and listened attentively.
Out of gratitude and guilt, Xiaoli is willing to marry Gu Ren, provided that Gu Ren will go to settle in Kuzhou with her. ”
Gu Xuan didn't know if Yuzhou was his mother's hometown, so he didn't reply rashly, but only asked, "What happened later?"
"Gu Ren is inconvenient to walk, and Xiaoli is a weak woman, escorting them to Yuzhou all the way. Xiao Li carried a lot of softness with him, and bought a house in Floating Wind City. ”
Seeing Gu Xuan's discontented look, Gu Ping showed a hint of a smile.
Gu Ren later found a job in a teahouse, and gave birth to a son since he was a child, but his body became weaker and weaker, and he spent all his savings, and even sold the house, but he was still unable to return to heaven. ”
Gu Xuan's expression was sad: "Since my cousin was buried in Pingshan, my cousin built a tea house here. ”
Gu Ping's voice was complicated: "Take care of the aftermath of the small departure, build the tea house, and be present below." ”
Gu Xuanxin had doubts, and temporarily found a set of explanations: "Due to the middle of the family, I lost contact with my relatives, I met my cousin's tombstone, and learned of the existence of Gu Ren, I often come to the tea house, why have I never seen Brother Gu?"
When Gu Ping heard this, he was actually a little embarrassed, and it took a long time before he said: "Gujia Village is in Luzhou, and the road is far away......
Gu An looked weird, and hurriedly exposed the old bottom: "Nonsense, it's obvious that my father liked Xiaoli back then, and thought that Gu Ren was not worthy of Xiaoli, and he always regarded Pingshan as a sad place." ”
Gu Ping's old face was slightly red, and he couldn't help but pat his thigh: "Bastard, adults talk, children talk about something!"
Gu Xuan looked funny, and said with a smile: "Everyone has a love for beauty, and if Brother Gu can like his cousin, it's too late for me to be happy." ”
"In the next year, I did have a love for beauty, but I never thought about it. ”
Only then did Gu Ping return to normalcy and glared at Gu An fiercely.
"Stinky cub, how do you know what Lao Tzu was thinking back then?"
Gu An's eyes darkened: "On the night of my mother's burial, my father and third uncle got drunk and talked a lot of nonsense, and the children heard it all. ”
Gu Ping took a long breath and touched Gu An's head: "Your mother is not here, and your father is here, our father and son depend on each other, and the sky can't fall." ”
Wang Mang suddenly suggested: "As far as heart refining is concerned, Gu Ping saved your mother, and this favor will be repaid." The tea house is full of sorrow, you might as well destroy it, as for the hometown of your parents, a tomb is enough. ”
Gu Xuan thought for a while, took out three gold leaves, and put them on the table.
Gu Ping was slightly stunned: "Brother Huang, this ......"
Gu Xuan Zhengse said: "I can't hide it, I have a lot of enemies, my cousin and uncle have an accident, most of them are the enemy's doing, if you put Brother Gu in danger, how can I be at peace in my heart?"
Gu Ping knew that Gu Xuan was repaying his kindness, and when he saw the bright gold leaves, he was deceiving himself if he was not moved.
Gu Xuan continued: "I have been to Floating Wind City before, and the teahouse where I hired my cousin and uncle back then was intended to be transferred, if Brother Gu has nowhere to go, he can take this teahouse down, and I will destroy the teahouse." ”
Gu Ping opened his mouth, and finally smiled bitterly: "Even if you plate the teahouse, you don't need three gold leaves." ”
Gu Xuan said: "I have a lot of gold leaves, but I am not shy in my pocket, and I ask Brother Gu not to shirk again." ”
Gu Ping finally stood up and bowed down to thank him: "Thank you Brother Huang for your great kindness, don't dare to forget it in the next inscription." ”
