Chapter 31: The Great Change of Lingbao
In Songcheng, Gu Qiuyu, dressed in gray cloth, walked on the street, compared with when he was wearing white, he was a little less elegant and more capable.
When he came to the inn where Broken Sword Sheng used to do chores, he saw that the business in the inn was still booming, but the signboard had been replaced by the Hongyun Inn.
"I guess it's a change of boss again. Gu Qiuyu thought in his heart, and then walked in and bought some dry food.
When he came out of the valley, Xiao Ding gave him ten taels of silver, which is definitely not a small amount, you must know that Broken Sword was only two taels of silver when he was a running hall for a year.
Gu Qiuyu didn't stay in Songcheng too much, and after replenishing food, he went straight to the Lingbao Sect, first of all, he wanted to transfer the sachet to Zhen Zhu, and secondly, he wanted to know what the purpose of Xiao Ding taking him to participate in the YMCA was in the first place. Although Xuan Daotian and Xiao Ding treated him like a father, he always felt that there was some big secret in it.
This time, Gu Qiuyu still has to find out a lot of things, Gu Qiuyu was not a child when his family was destroyed, and he always felt that it was very strange that the Gu family was destroyed. Although the Gu family supports the crown prince Chiyu and is at odds with the Chijin Dynasty, Gu Wenbin is the prime minister of Zuo, and he is very influential in the entire Yang Kingdom, and he also has his own private power. It is really unreasonable for Chi Jinchao to do something that is disagreeable in the world without even sitting on the golden chair.
Besides, although the Gu family has no foundation in Yangguo, it all depends on Gu Wenbin alone, but Gu Wenbin's wife Lin Ruzhi, that is, Gu Qiuyu's mother, is the sister of Lin Feng, the current general of Shiguo, and the Lin family's power is the largest family in Shiguo except for the royal family.
But Chi Jinchao clearly knew, but he executed Lin Ruzhi and the people of the Gu family without mercy, isn't he afraid of the Lin family's retaliation? You must know that the relationship between Shi Guo and Yang Guo has always been very tense. And just to find the prince, Chi Jinchao will not execute all the people of the Gu family, all of this cannot stand scrutiny, and careful people will find that there are many doubts about the destruction of the Gu family.
But if the real murderer is not Chi Jinchao, then who is he going to seek revenge on? After the Lingbao faction, he was about to get up and go to Shiguo, and his uncle Lin Feng should know some news.
After a night's journey, on the morning of the next day, Gu Qiuyu finally came to the town at the foot of Lingbao Mountain, looking at the towering peaks, Gu Qiuyu sighed for a while, "It's been three years." ”
Then he walked to the top of the mountain, but the sights he saw along the way made his brow furrow.
"How did this Lingbao Sect become like this now?" Gu Qiuyu traveled for a long time, but there were only three or three Lingbao disciples along the way, everyone was listless and energetic, some houses were also empty, and the weeds outside were growing, looking very dilapidated, which was too big a gap from three years ago.
Just when Gu Qiuyu was surprised by the change in the Lingbao Sect in his heart, a man limped over to him, the man opened his mouth, seemed to be smiling, his eyes were dull, his clothes were quite neat, but his hands and face were covered with mud.
"Hey, hey, hey...... Who are you who dare to go up to my mountain gate...... Hey, hey, hey. The man came to Gu Qiuyu's side and kept smirking at him, saliva slowly dripping down his mouth.
Gu Qiuyu looked puzzled and dodged back a few steps, thinking to himself why there was a fool in the mountain of this Lingbao Sect. But the man followed again, looking at him stupidly, and laughing "hehe" from his mouth.
"So you're here, and I've been looking for a long time. At this moment, on the mountain not far away, a short woman walked over quickly.
When the demented man saw the woman, he couldn't stop laughing, but there was still no expression on his face.
"Brother, how many times have I told you, don't walk alone on the mountain, otherwise you will die if you fall into the mountain stream. The woman came to her and looked at the demented man with a worried expression.
"Know...... Now, Sister Zhu, hey, hey, hey. The demented man held the woman's arm and giggled.
Only then did the woman notice Gu Qiuyu on the side, and when she saw that he was wearing clothes that were not from the Lingbao Sect, she stepped forward and asked, "I don't know if I came down from the Lingbao Sect...... It's you!" Before she finished speaking, the woman's beautiful eyes widened, staring at Gu Qiuyu firmly, her face full of surprise.
Gu Qiuyu felt familiar when he saw the woman, and after a closer look, he recognized her, isn't this the Zhen Zhu that the senior brother thought about for a while? ”
Then he was stunned for a moment, and looked at the demented man in front of him with some shock, could this person be Zhen Long?
Go to Gu Qiuyu to take a closer look, who else can this person be if he is not Zhen Long! Although there is mud on his face, he can still be distinguished from his facial features, who would have thought that Zhen Long, who was domineering and excellent in martial arts, would end up like this, it is really sad and lamentable.
The woman was first surprised, and then saw Gu Qiuyu staring at Zhen Long, and immediately became lost again, and said softly, "May I ask what happened to Yu Gongzi coming to my Lingbao Sect?" Zhen Zhu didn't know Gu Qiuyu's real name, but only remembered the fake name at the time of the competition-Yu Jianfeng.
Gu Qiuyu was stunned for a moment, and then understood, he said to Zhen Zhu, "Girl, can you borrow a place to talk?" Zhen Zhu nodded, and walked towards the mountain with Gu Qiuyu, while Zhen Long followed behind, limping away.
Subsequently, the three of them came to a clearing on the mountainside, Gu Qiuyu remembered that this clearing was the martial arts field of the Lingbao Sect at the beginning, but now there are no equipment, and it is very depressed.
Gu Qiuyu looked at Zhen Zhu, who was much more mature, and said, "Miss Zhen, with all due respect, how can this Lingbao Sect be so dilapidated now? There are not a few disciples in the mountains, and even some houses are no longer inhabited?"
Zhen Zhu glanced at Zhen Long, who was busy chasing butterflies not far away, his face was bitter, and his big eyes full of aura also dimmed, "Last time, Wei Buyu killed his brother at the Youth Conference, although his brother picked up a life, but people are stupid. Grandpa became seriously ill shortly after this and passed away not long after. Subsequently, the elders in the sect fought for the position of head of the sect, causing the Lingbao faction to fall apart, and the disciples were almost gone. ”
Gu Qiuyu heard Zhen Zhu say this, and said suspiciously, "Isn't your Lingbao Sect supported by the Lingbao Country?
Zhen Zhu sighed lightly and said bitterly, "Our Lingbao Sect has always been led by our Zhen family, but my father died when I was very young, and the successor of the head of the family became my brother Zhen Long. Besides, my martial arts skills are not high, and I can't suppress those elders. The Lingzhu Kingdom is also very disappointed with our YMCA this time, and intends to cultivate a second Lingbao Sect. ”
Zhen Zhu's face was very lost, what she just said reminded her of her grandfather, and now there are only Zhen Long left as relatives in this world, but Zhen Long has become like this, and the drastic changes in her life are tormenting her fragile heart all the time.
Gu Qiuyu looked at Zhen Zhu, he seemed to see himself at the beginning, sad, helpless, and even a little desperate.
"Three years ago, that innocent smile would never have appeared. Gu Qiuyu sighed in his heart.
Then he took out the sachet that Broken Sword Sheng gave him, "Miss Zhen, this is what my senior brother asked me to pass on to you." ”
Zhen Zhu took the somewhat ugly sachet and held it firmly in his hand, his eyes were moist, and he said silently, "It turns out that he hasn't forgotten me, he still remembers me." Gu Qiuyu saw a flash of brilliance in Zhen Zhu's eyes, that was hope.
Suddenly, a young Lingbao disciple passed by the two of them in a panic and ran up the mountain. Soon, a group of people walked down from the mountain, led by a thin old man, who looked a little flustered.
"What's the matter, what's wrong?Who is the old man at the head?" Gu Qiuyu looked at the crowd of people who hurriedly descended the mountain, and frowned slightly.
"That's the current acting head of the Lingbao faction, named Gao Kuan, grandpa was a good friend of grandpa when he was still alive, thanks to him, the Lingbao faction survived. Zhen Zhu's face was worried, and it was obvious that she didn't know what was going on.
At this time, a young man in the crowd saw Zhen Zhu here, ran over excitedly, and said breathlessly, "Senior Sister Zhen, hurry up and go to the foot of the mountain, Han Tianxiao from the Black Tiger Hall brought someone here again, saying that he wanted us to move out of Lingbao Mountain." ”
