Chapter 223: Going Home
Longxu City is one of the three major cities in the Song Kingdom except the capital, although it is the smallest of the three major cities, but on the ground of the Song Kingdom, it is a very large city, which can be known from the fact that it has a population of more than one million. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The ancient manor is not in Longsu City, but twenty or thirty miles away from Longsu City, a huge manor is built like a small city by the mountains and rivers. The Gu family has a very large house in Longsu City, and there are countless industries involving all walks of life, but Gu Yu's base camp is in the Gu family manor outside the city.
In fact, not only the Gu family did this, but other big families in Longxu City also established manors outside the city, among them, the first-class family, the Xiao family's manor was the largest, almost twice the size of the Gu family's manor, and the population of their family was more than 10,000 people. The Lin family, which is also a second-class family, is similar to the Gu family, and the population is also about the same.
As for the other families, they are not qualified and strong to establish a large manor outside the city, because they do not have the force to protect the manor, and if they fight with other forces, it is easy to be destroyed, so they can only retreat to the second, either survive in Longsu City, or they will rely on the surrounding small towns and rely on the power of the government to protect them.
Gu Yu's mother lives in the Gu family manor outside the city, she is an ordinary person, so she can only live in the manor to be protected, Gu Yu has always lived in the manor when he was at home before. The only time I followed my mother to Longsu City, I also took a walk around the city, as a side of the ancient family, I was not qualified to live in the ancient family house in Longsu City.
Gu Yu didn't run to Longsu City, so he went directly to the Gu Family Manor.
Half a day later, Gu Yu came to the Gu family manor, a small city built around a small hillside, surrounded by a high and thick wall, and a one-zhang wide moat was dug outside the wall, as if it was a way to defend against foreign invasion.
This is a common practice in large families outside the city of Dragonbeard, in order to prevent the invasion of large forces.
"Stop!
Seeing Gu Yu riding towards the gate of the manor, a guard at the gate shouted loudly. If Gu Yu didn't stop, then the next moment he would pull out the big knife from his waist. Of course, they could also see that Gu Yu had no malicious intent, at this moment Gu Yu was wearing a very beautiful samurai uniform, his spirit was flying, and he was not an ordinary person at first glance.
Gu Yu Lerma stopped, this time when he went home, he didn't have the slightest idea of contradicting the Gu family, he just wanted to help his mother get out of trouble.
Gu Yu looked around at the more than ten guards standing in various positions in front of the door, but he also recognized a person he knew.
"Uncle Huan, I'm Gu Yu, I'm back. Gu Yu shouted at a middle-aged man, this is a clansman of his father's generation, that is, he knows each other, and he has no friendship.
At the same time, Gu Yu took out the jade plate representing the identity of the Gu family and threw it to the nearest guard for confirmation, he didn't think that he had face to let the other party go without the jade card, so he simply took the initiative to take out the jade card for the other party to verify.
Uncle Huan stepped forward and took a closer look, Gu Yu had been away from home for three years, and his body had grown very quickly, so Uncle Huan looked at it for a while before he recognized some of his past appearances, and then looked at Gu Yu's jade plate, and then said, "It turned out to be Xiao Yu! I heard that you went to the Xuanling Sect to cultivate, why did you come back?"
"Come home and see. Gu Yu replied casually.
Uncle Huan wanted to talk more, but suddenly saw the aura emanating from Gu Yu's body, and couldn't help but shout: "Xiao Yu, you...... You're in the Cyclone Realm now?"
Uncle Huan is a pneumatic mirror qi refiner, and he is in his forties, which means that the limit of this life is here, if there is no big chance, it is basically impossible to break through the condensing qi realm, so he saw that the sixteen-year-old Gu Yu was already in the cyclone realm, and he was surprised, and his heart was full of emotions, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.
"It's just a fluke!" Gu Yu replied casually, and then asked slightly anxiously, "Can I go in?"
He's in such a hurry to go home!
"Of course you can!" Uncle Huan immediately replied, when he knew that Gu Yu was already in the Cyclone Realm, he wouldn't dare to offend Gu Yu, especially this kind of trivial matter.
Next, under the eyes of the Gu family's guards, Gu Yu led the horse and walked into the Gu family manor.
And after he entered, the guards at the door asked Uncle Huan about Gu Yu's origin, and then everyone knew that this was the son of Aunt Jinhua, and they were all envious of Gu Yu's cultivation in the Cyclone Realm.
Gu Yu walked briskly through the streets, and when he entered the door, he gave up the idea of riding a horse, under normal circumstances, in the manor, it was tacitly agreed that only the descendants were qualified to ride horses, and if others rode horses, they would be scolded by the family housekeeper. Now he doesn't ride a horse, it's not that he's afraid of the Gu family's lineage, but he just doesn't want to be too ostentatious.
In the manor, the descendants live in the middle of the hill, covering more than half of the area, and countless luxurious houses of different sizes have been built from the bottom to the top, which is the main house of the ancient family. The members of the lineage live from the highest place according to their status. It is conceivable that the largest and most beautiful attic at the top of the hill should be the place where the old patriarch Gu Quanfeng, who has the highest rank and highest cultivation, lives.
The rest of the manor, where many of the Gu family's collateral clansmen lived, was in stark contrast to the middle of the lineage, surrounding the main house, all bungalows, densely packed, most of the houses were ordinary, but some of the houses were very dilapidated, looking no different from the slum houses.
Gu Yu is now walking the streets of these bungalows, walking through the streets and alleys to go home.
He didn't ride a horse, thinking that he could keep a low profile, but he didn't expect it to be very eye-catching, because he was wearing a gorgeous samurai costume, and he looked more noble than the most powerful young masters in the lineage.
Suddenly, the people in the houses on both sides of the street stopped what they were doing, looked at Gu Yu, and couldn't help but think in their hearts: "Who is this? Why don't you go to the main house of the Gu family and come to such a dilapidated place?"
A strong sense of familiarity swelled in Gu Yu's heart, this was the place where he grew up, and once he came back, all the memories hidden deep in his mind came up.
"Uncle Niu, Aunt Niu, just went out!"
"Dahua, you don't change at all, you're still as strong as before. ”
"Granny Tim, have you eaten?"
“......”
Gu Yu casually greeted the neighbors on both sides of the street as he walked.
"Who is this? How do you know me?" Many people didn't recognize Gu Yu, first, Gu Yu changed a lot, and second, Gu Yu used to be a very ordinary child, and people were not impressed.
"I'm Gu Yu, I'm back!" Gu Yu said quickly.
Suddenly, the neighbors seemed to have fried the pot.
"Xiao Yu, you are Xiao Yu, you are developed!"
"It turned out that the son of Aunt Jinhua had returned. ”
People rushed to tell each other, many people gathered around, all of them were very excited, seeing Gu Yu dressed so gorgeously, everyone knew that Gu Yu had become developed.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I'll go home to see my mother first, and then I'll visit you when I have time. Gu Yu had to deal with it, and hurriedly quickened his pace and walked towards home.
Come home rich or famous!
is such a situation, and my mother will definitely have more face in the future.
