Chapter 214: The Reason for the Invitation
"Shhh...... My head hurts. ”
"I didn't expect that I was really drunk last night."
Getting up from the bed, Gu Cheng patted his head with a headache.
Pulling open the curtain of the window in the room, the early morning sun shone in from the outside, Gu Cheng raised his right hand to block the dazzling light.
Some memories of yesterday also involuntarily gradually came to mind.
"Lieyang wine, I'm afraid it's a first-class spirit bar, Sikong Zhongxin is really willing to take such a good wine and pour it with me."
"What did he tell me yesterday, that he was going to Yueyun County? Black Sand River? Alas, after drinking other people's good wine, it seems that it is not possible to not help. ”
"And Senior Sister Yun, it seems, it seems, it seems...... Alas, foolish thing, did I really do this? Do you want to apologize again? I guess it's going to be even more embarrassing. ”
Thinking of some things last night, Gu Cheng also had a feeling of crying and laughing.
He was just a little drunk last night, not a loss of memory, and now that he thinks about it, the situation of last night comes back to his mind vividly.
For monks, as long as their memories are not deliberately erased, there is basically no amnesia.
It's just that in comparison, Gu Cheng prefers to forget the memory of last night, so that he doesn't have to have such a headache now.
"Alas, forget it, I don't want to."
"The boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, and it will be whatever it wants."
"Later, I'll go to Sikong Zhongxin's side and ask him what the situation is about that matter."
Gu Cheng quickly made a decision.
Then I washed up again and changed into the standard clothes of the Purple Mountain lineage that I just received yesterday.
The brand-new clothes were worn on his body, and they fit very well, and Gu Cheng's whole spirit became high, and there was no trace of the decadence of yesterday's drunkenness.
Smiling confidently, Gu Cheng walked out of the room.
But when passing by the yard. happened to run into Qiu Shimei and Yun Jinglan, who seemed to be preparing breakfast.
As for Sikong Xiaoyu, I didn't see it.
Gu Cheng estimated that she should still be lying in bed and not getting up now.
"Senior Brother Gu."
When Yun Jinglan saw Gu Cheng, she didn't have any unusual expression, but greeted her naturally.
"Cloud ...... Senior Sister Yun. ”
Gu Cheng's eyes couldn't help but be attracted by Yun Jinglan's seductive lips, as if he remembered something. He swallowed his saliva and replied with a slightly embarrassed face.
Finding Gu Cheng's gaze and reaction, Yun Jinglan was embarrassed in her heart and immediately turned her head away.
Qiu Shimei didn't notice the cattiness between the two, but greeted Gu Cheng with a smile, "Senior Brother Gu, you haven't had breakfast yet, have you...... Would you like to eat with us? Senior Sister Yun just prepared Bai Yun porridge, and it tasted really good. ”
Gu Cheng turned his head to look at Yun Jinglan.
Yun Jinglan didn't say anything, just looked at him with a smile.
Gu Cheng's heartbeat accelerated instantly. Where did he dare to agree, he immediately refused, "That, yesterday Senior Brother Sikong asked me to go to his place for breakfast, he is estimated to be ready now, I will go to his place to eat." ”
As soon as the words fell, Gu Cheng walked quickly towards the outside of the courtyard.
At this time, Qiu Shimei's puzzled voice came from afar. "Senior Brother Sikong prepares breakfast? Didn't he never get any of that, and he often came to us to eat and drink......"
Hear this. Gu Cheng stumbled at his feet, and almost repeated the tragedy of last night.
I didn't dare to stop, and the pace under my feet was a little faster.
has been paying close attention to his actions, and seeing such a scene, Yun Jinglan couldn't help laughing anymore......
It's Qiu Shimei, who is still confused and doesn't know what happened.
……
"Alas. It's a shame this time. ”
After having breakfast in the "canteen" where the sect specially provided food, Gu Cheng rushed to Sikong Zhongxin's mansion.
But along the way, his face was hot and uncomfortable.
Qiu Shimei couldn't see his embarrassment, but Yun Jinglan probably saw it all.
Come to think of it. Gu Cheng really wanted to find a pit and jump down directly.
"Tom ......"
Gu Cheng soon came to the door of Sikong Zhongxin's mansion, and then knocked on the door of the mansion.
"Who are you?"
A servant poked his head out and asked.
But as soon as the words came out, he seemed to remember something, and immediately asked, "You are Lord Gu Chenggu, my master has already greeted him in advance, let you come over and go directly to him, he is waiting for you in the inner courtyard." ”
As he spoke, the little guy opened the courtyard door and bowed down respectfully to Gu Cheng at the same time.
These people are just ordinary servants in Sunset Mountain, so naturally they have no status, and in the face of formal disciples like Gu Cheng, they must be careful everywhere.
Gu Cheng nodded, although he was curious, he didn't ask too much.
Soon, under the leadership of this little servant, he walked into the inner courtyard of Sikong Zhongxin.
Soon, he saw Sikong Tadashin in the pavilion in the inner courtyard, and Sikong Tadashi was eating.
Gu Cheng walked over and swept his gaze, and sure enough, all of them were those few things in the sect canteen, and it was estimated that the next person bought them for him in the morning.
"That's true."
Gu Cheng muttered to himself.
"What? Senior Brother Gu, have you eaten yet, do you want to eat some together? I'm a bit much. Sikong Zhongxin didn't hear what Gu Cheng said, and raised his head and asked.
"Forget it, I've just eaten and come here."
Although he and Sikong Zhongxin have only met once, and the relationship between the two was not very friendly at first, but after a drunken incident yesterday, the relationship between the two has suddenly become much closer.
Maybe it's because both of them are the kind of people with open-minded personalities.
Gu Cheng was not polite, and sat down directly on the stone bench next to him.
Thinking of the little guy's words just now, he couldn't help but ask, "Senior Brother Sikong, do you know that I will come over today?" ”
"With the curiosity you are showing now, junior brother, I am sure that I am not wrong in judgment." Sikong Zhongxin squeezed his brows and said with a smile.
Gu Cheng was slightly stunned.
reacted immediately, and couldn't help laughing.
This time, there was no need for Gu Cheng to ask again, Sikong Zhongxin took the initiative to explain.
Putting down the chopsticks in his hand, he wiped his hands, muttered for a while, and said slowly this time, "Actually, don't hide it from my junior brother, I didn't plan to invite you to act together, because I have already found all the people in general, in addition to me, there are three other people, and their cultivation has reached the Jindan stage consummation realm." ”
When talking about business, Sikong Zhongxin no longer looked like he was smiling, but became a little serious.
Gu Cheng didn't interject.
He knew that since Sikong Zhongxin said so, there must be an explanation later.
Sure enough, immediately after, Sikong Zhongxin continued,
"The reason why I invited my junior brother, one is because junior brother, your strength is good, you can fight with my sister and have the upper hand, no matter what other aspects are, at least the strength is no less than that of ordinary Jindan late stage monks."
"On the other hand, it's because of your fire attribute mana, junior brother, which is pure condensation, is really rare among Jindan stage monks, and this is exactly what we need for this operation."
"As for the specific why, I will explain it to you in detail when the time comes."
"Now I want to ask you, junior brother, if you are willing to participate, if you are willing, the after-the-fact reward will definitely not be less than your share." (To be continued......)
