Chapter 2: Shadows under the Brilliant

As the saying goes: fame, show parents, light in the front, abundance in the back. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe deepest bond in a person's life is family affection, which accompanies a person's life from birth to death.

From the moment Gu Dongping stepped into Mujing Manor, his heart seemed to be closer, and this feeling was much deeper than that on Jieren Mountain, Mujing Manor was the most familiar place in his past and present lives.

He has lived here for almost 60 years, counting the days and nights of his previous life, of course.

January was supposed to be the season when the trees and flowers withered, but the Mujing Manor was still stained with green.

The green trees in front of the manor hugged the giant trees, standing in twos and threes, like a warrior, from his childhood, to the present, from day to night, not afraid of cold wind and rain, consistent.

He stopped, took a closer look at the towering trees, and then entered the door.

Lu Chengjun, who was followed by Gu Dongping, had already handed over the luggage to the ushering servant. When Gu Dongping went home this time, he obviously felt that the servants who bowed their heads to greet him were much more respectful than before.

Seeing this, he smiled and replied one by one, and it was not too troublesome.

Following the servant who led the way all the way, Gu Dongping's footsteps were calm, and he looked at the layout of the manor while walking, still the same as before, the old poplars, rockeries, and lotus ponds in the front yard were as simple as before.

When he arrived at the door of the main hall, the servant consciously stood on the side, Gu Dongping climbed the stairs and entered the inside, obviously feeling that the people inside were boiling, and Gu Jinyi had informed him before coming that this time it was a big banquet.

In previous years, today, the time for the family feast of each branch has passed.

This year, because Gu Dongping entered the highest event of the martial arts meeting, this family banquet was postponed, and this delay was seven or eight days, but no one had an opinion.

Now that Gu Dongping is in strength, he is already half of the top in the Eastern Continent, and it is self-evident what this kind of successor means to a force.

As soon as he entered the door, he felt that the main hall was quiet, and everyone couldn't help but look at him, Gu Dongping's expression was calm, he was wearing a plain casual dress today.

The head with no eyebrows and hair at all, paired with this sound plain clothes, gives people a natural and simple feeling.

But somehow, as long as Gu Dongping stood here, the people who were originally preparing a congratulatory message and wanted to surround him did not come forward at this moment.

These people naturally didn't know that Gu Dongping had just broken through the Jade Que, and his momentum was not good to take back, and it was so majestic that it could not be humiliated. Although these people did not have bad intentions, they thought too much, and no one dared to step forward, in fact, Gu Dongping would not say anything if he really stepped forward.

Gu Dongping walked through the door, walked quickly through a few tables, rushed to the small table in the main hall, bowed down and said, "Father, mother." Then he turned his head and said to Zhang Qiang, who was sitting next to him, "Grandpa Zhang." With that, he straightened up and greeted the people at the small table.

After he finished greeting, Gu Jinyi pulled him to his side and sat down, Gu Dongping just sat down, and was teased by Hua Yunxia who was opposite him, "Dongping, you don't understand the pity and pity the jade in the end, and in the end, Chu Hongyan, who is your opponent, has suffered a lot!"

Gu Dongping's heart tightened, he didn't have anything to do with this Aunt Hua, and smiled indifferently, "Aunt Hua, don't make fun of me, this time I didn't suffer less, the hair that grew hard last time is gone this time!"

As he spoke, he also touched his head, which made Hua Yunxia laugh coquettishly.

For Hua Yunxia, who has a pungent personality, this family only needs Zhang Xin's words to have an effect, she diverted the topic and said, "Dongping, let's talk about the young martial artists in this year's martial arts meeting." It is said that this year's martial arts meeting is the highest quality in the history of Donglu, and if you participate in it in person, it is naturally more than we have to understand. ”

Listening to Zhang Xin's words, Gu Xiaoyu, who was sitting next to Gu Dongping, immediately clamored to listen to his brother's story, Gu Dongping saw that everyone was a little eager to look at him, and agreed with a smile.

He didn't mix too many feelings, nor did he deliberately show himself, but just used an understatement tone to talk about the martial arts meeting, of course, several major seed players, as well as good opponents he met at the provincial martial arts meeting, he told it all.

The people at the table talked and laughed, and they didn't feel bored at all when they heard Gu Dongping speak, because he would list the backgrounds and martial arts of various martial artists clearly, and many battles were often in one sentence and hit the nail on the head.

Even some people with outstanding potential are not stingy to praise, which is also a reminder to those present not to deal with these people. According to Gu Dongping's understanding, people like Chu Hongyan, Zhao Weifeng, Guan Hong and others are like the protagonists in legendary biographies, and after the martial arts meeting, these people's popularity has become too high, and the difficulty of suppressing them is too high.

Gu Dongping spoke for more than an hour, and stopped in the midst of everyone's unfinished thinking, everyone here has martial arts, and their vision ability is also first-class, after listening to Gu Dongping's speech, they have a deeper understanding of those genius martial artists than a piece of information.

Even with it, he also had a vague understanding of Gu Dongping's strength.

Gu Jinyi, who was watching with a smile on the side, saw that the time was almost up, so he took Gu Dongping to get up and walked around the other tables.

Those who can participate in today's family banquet are the core of the power of Gu Jinyi, including the president of the Chamber of Commerce under him, the characters on the face of the owner of the manor, and Gu Hailin said that the head of the underground forces are all here today.

Gu Jinyi patiently introduced these people to Gu Dongping one by one, he didn't have time to do these things before, through the glory of the champion of the martial arts club, Gu Jinyi is confident that his son will leave a deep imprint on these people.

When Gu Dongping walked through the various tables, there was no need to say much about it, it could be seen that these people were very happy, they and Gu Dongping's family were in the same weal and woe, and there were successors, which meant that the wealth in their hands could continue.

By the time the family banquet was over, it was close to midnight, and Gu Xiaoyu, who had been shouting to find her brother, had already been coaxed down to sleep by the maid.

........

Ancient and modern billions of study.

Gu Dongping, Gu Jinyi, and Zhang Qiang sat cross-legged next to the small coffee table, and there was no one on the left and right, and Gu Dongping was responsible for brewing tea.

Gu Jinyi looked at Gu Dongping, who was calm and serious, and his demeanor was calm, and he had to sigh that his son had grown up, but he also remembered something and said, "What you said at the family banquet just now is not true, I see that you have a lot of things that have not been pointed out for some martial artists." ”

Without outsiders, Gu Dongping didn't hide it, and told the true potential of those people, even if he was as calm as ancient and modern, he didn't react.

"What? You said that there will be five or six Abyss Seeds in this martial arts fight!"

Wuji and the abyss, the abyss and the extreme realm, are higher than the other, each high to the suffocating, as strong as a family that has been inherited for thousands of years, but dare to guarantee that each generation will launch an abyss warrior, which has been regarded as a symbol of profound heritage.

As for the Eastern Continent, there has been no Abyss Realm martial artist for nearly a hundred years.

This refers to the cultivation of the Eastern Continent forces, not just being born in the Eastern Continent, and now according to Gu Dongping's statement, there will be five or six natives in the Eastern Continent, and they will even rise in just ten years.

Gu Jinyi obviously didn't believe it and asked, "Stinky boy, how can you be so sure that these people have such potential? And having potential does not necessarily turn into strength." ”

Gu Dongping pointed to his head, just smiled and said nothing, seeing this, Gu Jinyi immediately laughed and scolded, and Zhang Qiang on the side looked at this father and son with a smile.

In the sound of bubbling tea, the three of them talked about the struggle of forces in the Eastern Continent from the martial arts meeting to the ups and downs of the empire, and the old, middle and young chatted with relish, most of the time, it was Gu Dongping and Gu Jinyi who said it, Zhang Qiang just listened quietly.

It wasn't until late at night that Gu Jinyi said the most important thing, that is, Zhang Qiang wanted to retreat and break through the abyss.

For this problem, Gu Dongping has long been mentally prepared, Zhang Qiang's age is here, although there are dry bones and flowers to recover his body, but he can't last long to reach the peak.

However, a few steps up the ladder to the abyss is not easy to walk, and once you fail, there is no turning back.

Gu Dongping thought for a while and asked, "How sure is Grandpa Zhang about breaking through the abyss?"

Zhang Qiang smiled silently, stretched out his palm, and Gu Dongping exhaled lightly, fifty into half and half, no more, no less. Zhang Qiang said with a smile, "If you break through the abyss before, you are only one percent sure, but in fact, no, this time the effect after taking the dry bone lin flower is better than I imagined." ”

"Fifty percent, it's just an underestimate, if you really want to say it, it's almost around seventy percent, and this success rate is already very high. ”

Gu Dongping looked at his father and asked, "Have we collected the experience of breaking through the abyss, I am afraid that there are not many Gu families in this regard." If it really doesn't work, use the dry bone flowers to exchange. ”

Gu Jinyi nodded, "You don't have to worry about this, I contacted Yuxian a few days ago, and he asked about the high status of the villa, and he apprenticed to Elder Chang Jialin, and it is no surprise that you can get a non-core experience, although it is impossible to go into more detail, but there is no need to worry about the authenticity." ”

.......

When Gu Dongping came out of the room, Gu Jinyi and Zhang Qiang had not yet come out. Obviously there is still something to talk about. Zhang Qiang's retreat means that the highest combat power in the family will be bent on seeking a breakthrough in the past few years, and he may come out one day, or he may never get out.

Regarding the arrangement of forces, it is necessary to be cautious, but fortunately, Gu Dongping heard it through his own Lao Tzu's words, he has broken through Wuji, and it is not that simple Wuji, not surprisingly, it is a thick accumulation.

Even if he was in a middle-grade family, Gu Dongping felt powerless for the first time after being reborn tonight, even if he was slapped away by Wang Shude, he didn't feel this way, because for Wang Shude, he knew that one day, he could make her pay.

But something like breaking through the abyss cheats, that is, an invisible ravine, blocking in front of him, invisible but unbreakable.

Blowing a cold wind, Gu Dongping walked into the room where he usually lived, and shivered all of a sudden, realizing that he was in a low mood just now, and he didn't stop it, this feeling was just right for him.

He lay quietly on the bed, letting the darkness swallow him up, slowly sinking into the soft mattress.....
