The Gan family in Luzhou, since the previous dynasty, has been the Xishu Wang clan, for hundreds of years has been guarding the Xishu border pass, and two hundred years ago the Han Dynasty was destroyed, between the eight years of war, it is one step earlier to reach cooperation with the Li Tang forces, relying on the family power to maintain the land of Xishu is not chaotic. When the war ended and the north and south were divided, after Li Tang established the country, the Gan family deservedly became the first in Western Shu.

Although in the following two hundred years, many powerful family gate valves of all sizes have sprung up in Xishu, and with the Li Tang Dynasty intentionally or unintentionally suppressing the gate valves left by the previous dynasty, the power on the Gan family's face has been weakened, and even the position of the commander-in-chief of the CD Dao Soldiers and Horses Division was lost decades ago, but the Gan family has been operating painstakingly in the land of Xishu for hundreds of years, and this big tree is by no means a few gusts of demon wind in Jiankang City, thousands of miles away, can be blown and dissipated.

So, when Wang Shen got down from the carriage and saw the Gan family's mansion in front of him, which had not fallen after many ups and downs, he gasped directly.

What a magnificent house!

The courtyard wall extending out on both sides of the solemn lintel that stands tall like the archway is not only more than twice as high as the ordinary house, but also can not see the end at a glance, if it is not for Wang Shen to sit in the carriage when he feels a few corners, at this moment I am afraid that half of this Luzhou city is occupied by this house.

In fact, if you really want to calculate, the actual size of this Luzhou city is much larger than that of CD City, but the CD city has a special location and is located in the strategic place of Xishu, so it has always been an important town in Xishu throughout the ages, whether it is the city defense or military measures in the city has always been the most in Xishu, so it has also become the place where the Yamen of the Six Daodao Mansions of the Southern Tang Dynasty is located, and the realm of Xishu is the town.

As for Luzhou City, it has always been the place where the foundation of the gate valve clan is located, and there is no other, because in the entire territory of Xishu, Luzhou City is the safest place and the richest state capital.

Luzhou City is one of the five states of CD Road, its location is in the southernmost part of the five states, although the border of Xishu has been in turmoil for thousands of years, but there are few wars that can affect the border of Luzhou. Moreover, the geographical environment of Luzhou City is extremely superior, the wind and rain are smooth all the year round, and the grain output of all the counties under its jurisdiction is extremely high, and it has always been known as the granary of Xishu. Not only that, Luzhou City is also south of the Yangtze River, water transportation is very convenient, from Luzhou City merchant ships can go directly to Chongqing Prefecture, Jiangling Mansion and Jiankang City along the waterway.

Therefore, Luzhou City does not look like a bitter cold and bleak border city at all, and the unique fierce folk customs of Xishu are not seen here, and the alleys and alleys of the city are mostly satisfied with the shops and articulate hawkers, no wonder even Xiaobai feels that there is a bit of small Jiangnan here.

Such a unique environment has also made Luzhou City the favorite place of the Xishumen lords, and the Gan family is no exception, this extraordinary Gan family mansion has been standing here as early as the previous dynasty.

When Wang Shen followed the old housekeeper into the gate of the Gan family, he felt a little dizzy and didn't know where he was, and finally saw the eldest lady of the Gan family who was deep in the depths of the gate valve mansion.

The willing in front of him changed his elegant dress when he was cultivating in Qingcheng Mountain, wearing a pink embroidered waist velvet skirt, with a soft sable tail on his arms that ordinary people are afraid that he will never see in his life, and a pair of gold-painted earrings hanging on his shoulders are also embedded with two red gems that I don't know where they come from, which are as eye-catching as two beating flames in such a cold and snowy weather.

"Miss. ”

The old butler bowed his waist.

Gan Xin bowed his head slightly and said, "It's hard work, you go down first." ”

"Yes. ”

The old butler respectfully retreated, turned around and saluted Wang Shen slightly before going to work on his own.

Wang Shen is looking at this single secluded courtyard in front of him at the moment, the courtyard is not big, and there are two rooms in the courtyard, but there are old trees and rockery pools in the courtyard, as well as an ancient well, which looks extremely chic.

After Wang Shen finished reading it, he turned his eyes to Gan Xin, who was leaning against the courtyard gate like a full moon, and asked curiously, "Do you have a lot of housekeepers in your house?"

"There are not many, there are only a dozen people who can do things, up and down. ”

After a pause, he stared at Wang Shen willingly, and said with a little suspicion in his eyes: "Originally, I thought you wouldn't come." ”

Wang Shen laughed at himself: "You know, I'm a person who loves to be cheap. ”

"What if I'm a Hongmen feast? This Gan family mansion is not much safer than the ghost cave in the Hengduan Mountain Range. ”

Gan winked playfully.

Wang Shen waved his hand disappreciatively and said: "As for it, I'm just a small errand officer in the Yin Division, your eldest lady of the Gan family wants to clean me up, just throw a sentence casually, I don't know how many people are lining up to get my head, and you still need to take such a big effort to invite me to my mansion?"

"That's not easy to say, I've had a bad temper since I was a child, and if someone upsets me, I like to take that person into the house and torture them slowly. ”

"Ha, I'm from the countryside, I really don't know ...... this"

"Do you regret coming here?"

"Well...... It depends on the situation, I heard the old housekeeper say that Miss Gan still has a generous gift after I came to Luzhou, so I want to see how thick the generous gift is before I know if I regret it. ”

"Okay, then you see. ”

As soon as the words fell, Wang Shen felt a flower in front of him, and this gorgeous woman dressed like a red plum blooming in the snow had an extra sword in her hand, and the cold light on the sword had already reached him.

"Click!"

Between the lightning and flint, Wang Shen picked up the sword box he had just obtained and held it in front of him to block the sword, and as the lacquered wood sword box was pierced by the sword of Gan Xin, Wang Shen took out the pine pattern ancient sword in the sword box.

The ancient sword was unsheathed, and there was the sound of a dragon's groan, and under the vitality of Wang Shenda Zhoutian, even the snow in the small courtyard was blown away.

Although Gan Xin is only Xiao Zhou Tian's cultivation, the sword in her hand is also extraordinary, and it is the first time that Wang Shen has seen this closed disciple of the Qingyang Palace who is in charge of the real person actually makes a handsome swordsmanship. The smart and elegant swordsmanship coupled with the mysterious three steps of Qingyang Palace made Wang Shen unable to find a chance to fight back for a while.

And after all, this is the Gan family, Wang Shen didn't know the intention of being willing to use the sword, so he gave priority to dodging and defending.

It's a pity that the space in this courtyard is too small, and the willing sword moves are pressing step by step, so Wang Shen was quickly forced into a corner, and in desperation, he flicked his wrist and used the fourth form in the Pingchuan swordsmanship, Beiyue Zangyu.

This is the only defensive move in the five strokes of Pingchuan swordsmanship, at this time Wang Shenxiu is a big advance, and the sword momentum in this hand has added a bit of surging atmosphere, even if it is a defensive move, the sword blade is actually absorbed into the heavy snow that is flying all over the courtyard to his side.

As the sword qi in Wang Shen's hand moved, the snow all over the courtyard danced with it, like a white python coiled in front of Wang Shen and hid without moving.

Gan Xin's face was shocked when she saw this, and for a while she couldn't find the slightest place to drop the sword, so angry that she threw the long sword in her hand aside, and said angrily: "Don't fight, it's boring!"

Wang Shen breathed a sigh of relief, put the sword into the sheath, and as the sword qi dispersed, the snow python between the two of them was blown by the wind and turned into a courtyard full of snow, sprinkled around the two of them.
