Chapter 121: The Ghost King Robs His Relatives!

Waiting for Sanyi to leave, Nie Xiaoqian walked up to Gu Ming and asked softly, "Gu Lang, are you going to Gusu Mansion?" ”

"Well, since Tang Jieyuan sincerely invited, I naturally can't push it back."

"It's just ......" Speaking of this, Nie Xiaoqian hesitated for a moment.

Seeing this, Gu Ming couldn't help but smile: "What, are you worried that someone will make it difficult for me?" ”

"Hmm~"

Nie Xiaoqian sighed faintly.

"I heard that most of the talents in Gusu Mansion are proud of their talents. This time, Gu Lang handpicked Xie Yuan, and there must be many people who are jealous and dissatisfied.

So...... Maybe someone will take the opportunity to make trouble at this gathering, such as Dongfang Bubai and Fang Tangjing, who came last time. ”

"Xiaoqian, don't worry about this......"

Gu Ming took Nie Xiaoqian's hand and walked to the stone table and sat down.

"On poetry and songs, chess, piano and calligraphy and painting, why are you afraid of it?"

As soon as she heard the word Xianggong, Nie Xiaoqian's face suddenly turned red.

Gu Ming couldn't help but raise his hand and gently rubbed the beauty's hot and delicate face, and continued: "If you talk about martial arts...... Not to mention.

Therefore, even if someone makes things difficult, they can only bring humiliation to themselves. ”

"That'...... Do you want me to come with you? Nie Xiaoqian asked in a low voice.

Gu Ming shook his head: "No need, we are not familiar with Gusu Mansion, in case a master finds out your identity, it may cause some unnecessary entanglements."

For now, it is safer for you to stay in Guobei County.

First, your father is the commander of Guobei County, and second, with Mr. Song and Yan Daxia sitting in and out of the city respectively, there will be no major incidents. ”

Nie Xiaoqian nodded first, and then said, "If you don't let Yu'er go with you, I can take care of your daily life all the way." Besides, now that you are Xie Yuan, you must have a maid by your side to serve. ”

Gu Ming smiled and waved his hand: "It's okay, I'm not like some sons who like to talk about pomp and circumstance, and they hug each other as soon as they go out." ”

The two of them chatted for a while, and Nie Xiaoqian got up to pack some belongings for Gu Ming.

Gu Ming went out and went to the county office in person to find his father-in-law and inform him, and invited him to the dinner.

After that, I went to the study and invited Su Ling, He Yong and others to go to the Drunken Immortal Building for a drink in the evening.

When it was dark, a group of people met to meet in the reserved private room, and it was not to mention that it was lively.

Regarding Gu Ming's trip to Gusu to participate in the Jingui Poetry and Painting Conference, He Yongliang and Dong Sheng were very envious.

In Jiangnan, and even in the circle of readers across the country, this can be called the most well-known and desirable event.

There are similar gatherings in the capital, and they are of a higher standard and have more participants.

However, the atmosphere is fundamentally different.

The Jingui Poetry and Painting Association can be described as a gathering of talented and beautiful people, and its main purpose is also to exchange poems and songs with each other.

Over the years, every poetry and painting meeting has circulated some popular masterpieces and sentences, or good stories of talented and beautiful people.

The largest spring poetry club in the capital is nominally a "poem", but in fact, more than half of the staff are disciples of the central government in Beijing, and there are many people who are indiscriminate and vassal.

To put it bluntly, it's almost a fun-seeking event.

"Wen Xing, this time I have to go to Gusu Mansion to shake the field, especially the likes of Dongfang Bubai and Fang Tang Jing, don't leave them a trace of affection."

"Yes, yes, last time those two guys came to us, they simply had their nostrils facing the sky, and they looked like Lao Tzu was the best in the world, this time you have to mock them when you go to Gusu Mansion."

Hearing what He Yongliang and the others said, Gu Ming couldn't help but shake his head: "What's the point of doing this?" They are called villains, and if I mock them for no reason, will I not be like them? ”

"Gu Lang is right, it's not worth caring about that kind of person."

He Yongliang couldn't help muttering: "No matter what your Gu Lang says, you say it's right......"

Su Ling couldn't help but smile and said, "Stupid, this is called a husband and a wife." ”

"Ahem~"

Nie Hongshu couldn't help coughing dryly: "Okay, okay, come on, come on, this official respects everyone, thank you for your support to this official all the time." ”

"No, no, no, how can you let Lord Nie toast, it should be up to us to toast Lord Nie!"

"Yes, let's toast Master Nie with a ......"

After a while, Lin Xiaoshan shyly replied and picked up the wine glass and said to Gu Ming: "Thanks to Gu Gongzi's blessing, Yongliang Fang and I can get married, and the little woman is here to express her gratitude with a glass of wine." ”

"Okay, this son also wishes you and Leping an early birth to a noble son, and you can have a big event at that time, and celebrate it well."

As soon as he heard this, He Yongliang immediately picked up his wine glass with a spring breeze on his face and said, "It's almost fast, hahaha!" ”

As he spoke, he deliberately glanced at Lin Xiaoshan's stomach.

"Huh? Leping, you can hide it from everyone all the time. Su Ling couldn't help but squeeze a sentence.

"It's not a secret, I only found out in the past two days."

All of a sudden, the atmosphere became even more enthusiastic.

After drinking a few glasses, Gu Ming took advantage of the wine to glance at Dong Sheng and smiled: "Dong Sheng, now Leping is about to become a father, and Caichen also has a ghost in his heart, and you are still eating dog food alone." ”

"Huh? Dog...... Grain? ”

"That means you're still a single dog!"

"Wen Xing, you ...... Why do you humiliate Xiaosheng! Dong Sheng's face turned red.

"Poof, hahaha!"

Su Ling almost slapped the table and rubbed his stomach.

Gu Ming said seriously: "This is not called humiliation, this is called spurring!" You are now both talented and wealthy, so don't wander around, it's time to start a family. ”

"Yes, you don't have a family for a day, and you're a single dog for a day!"

He Yongliang took the opportunity to fall into the well.

"You ......"

Dong Sheng picked up the wine glass and drank it all.

Then he said ruthlessly: "Tomorrow, Xiaosheng will start looking for it, and I don't believe that I can't find a woman I like." ”

"Look for it, this time you have to keep your eyes open, don't look for any weird women."

Dong Sheng coughed embarrassedly: "I know, I know, I must find a ...... who knows the root of the matter this time."

……

Early the next morning, Gu Ming said goodbye and embarked on a trip to Gusu Mansion.

Nie Xiaoqian and Yu'er were reluctant to give up and were sent outside the city.

Guobei County is almost six or seven hundred miles away from Gusu Mansion, and it generally takes two days to ride a horse, and it is difficult to say on foot, and it takes more than ten days for ordinary people.

However, Gu Ming's feet are fast, and he can also travel at night, so it is easy to walk two or three hundred miles a day.

Therefore, if you are lazy to ride a horse, you should go all the way to the mountains and rivers to relax.

It took two days to travel, almost half of the journey.

Towards night, I walked into a small mountain market.

I walked around and found that there was only a small inn and tavern in the market.

Gu Ming stepped in and asked a man who looked like a shopkeeper, "Shopkeeper, are there any wines, food and empty rooms?" ”

"Yes, yes."

"Then let's have some food and drinks, and open an upper room."

"Guest officer, please wait for ......"

The shopkeeper answered, and hurriedly turned and walked to the kitchen.

After a while, a plate of peanuts, meat cuts, and a pot of wine were served.

"Guest officer, please use it slowly, if the food is not enough, you will give an order."

"Hmm~"

Gu Ming answered, and began to pour himself a drink.

As soon as a glass of wine was served, a woman's whimpering cry came from the inner hall.

The shopkeeper couldn't help frowning and hurriedly walked into the inner hall.

After a while, he walked out again and smiled apologetically at Gu Ming: "I'm sorry, I'm bothering the guest officer to drink." ”

"It's okay......" Gu Ming waved his hand.

At this time, a woman walked out of the inner hall and said to the shopkeeper: "You go and persuade the dead girl again, what does she say she doesn't want to marry......"

"Alas!"

The shopkeeper sighed and walked into the back hall again.

As a result, the crying from the inner hall grew louder and louder.

"Poor~"

There was also a man in the shop, who had been drinking at first, but now he shook his head and sighed, and drank his glass.

The shopkeeper and his wife walked out together again, with a sad face.

"How's that good? I'm afraid that the person who greets her will arrive soon, but this girl is crying and not marrying, and she can't persuade her. ”

"That's no way, you have to tie her to the sedan ......"

"Alas, when is this hard time a head?"

The man who was drinking sighed again.

At this time, Gu Ming heard a hint of something wrong, and couldn't help but ask: "Shopkeeper, what's going on?" Isn't it a happy event to get married? Why does your daughter keep crying? ”

It is normal for a girl's family to cry for a while before getting married, and it is a long-standing custom to show that she is reluctant to leave her mother's family.

But this girl is too good at crying, and she cries so sadly before the sedan chair comes, I'm afraid there is something hidden?

"This ......"

The shopkeeper frowned, as if there was something unspeakable.

The woman sighed at Gu Ming: "It's better not to inquire about the guest officer, I'm afraid it will make you feel uneasy if you know." ”

As a result, the man who was drinking turned around, looked at Gu Ming and said, "Little brother, you came from other places, you must not have heard of our strange things here......

"What wonder?"

"The ghost king robs the relatives!"

As soon as he heard this, Gu Ming couldn't help but be surprised: "The ghost king robbed his relatives? This...... Is this a legend or something? ”

"If only it were a legend......" The man shook his head with a wry smile.

At this time, a special task prompt suddenly popped up in Gu Ming's mind:

[Eliminate local ghosts]

[Complete the mission, reward 60 points]

60 points?

Gu Ming couldn't help but be shocked.

As a rule of thumb, the more points awarded means the more difficult the task.

However, why not earn points if you have them?

Since the system has released a mission, it means that there must be ghosts here!

So, Gu Ming thought about it at the moment and took over the task.

"Don't talk about it, don't frighten this guest officer."

Gu Ming smiled and said: "It's okay, I've always liked to hear these anecdotes the most, can you tell me more about the ghost king's robbery?" ”

The man took another sip of wine, seemed to have a stomach full of resentment, and slammed the table: "I only hate that I don't have the ability to catch ghosts and subdue demons, otherwise I would have destroyed that dog X a long time ago." ”

As soon as the words came out, the shopkeeper and his wife changed color in unison, and exclaimed: "Don't talk nonsense!" ”

"What's wrong with scolding it? If you die, if you become a ghost, you may have a chance to avenge Ajuan. ”

Upon hearing this, Gu Ming faintly guessed some reasons.

Thinking that Ajuan died at the hands of the ghost king, and this Ajuan must have a relatively close relationship with the man, so he will have such anger.

"Bolt, I know you can't let go of Ajuan, it's just ...... That's it, let's not mention these past events. ”

"Yes, bolt, you have to think about yourself, think about the big guys, if you offend the ghost king, everyone's life will be difficult."

The man smiled coldly: "Could it be that everyone's life is better now?" If it's better, why doesn't Xiaocui want to marry? ”

"This ......"

The shopkeeper and his wife were speechless.

For a while, the atmosphere in the store became extremely oppressive......
