068: Departure
Hell Gate.
Gu Changsheng felt that he might be about to have a stress reaction to these three words......
He only felt that his head was buzzing, and the blood in his body was gushing and flowing, and even the whole person was slightly hot.
Hell Gate, how could these ghosts and demons appear at this time?
Gu Changsheng had just heard it clearly, the destination of the elder's trip was located in the northern area of Dongcheng—a little earlier, Gu Changsheng had already figured out all the areas around here, as well as the general distribution of villages.
As in Xiawuyuan Village, where he lived before, Jiuhuan Village is a piece.
It is located in the area adjacent to the south, because it is not close to the sea, and the land is relatively barren...... The villages to the south, as well as the population, are the least in DC.
And now, these demons and monsters actually appeared outside the south, which really surprised Gu Changsheng.
Brush your mind a little.
According to the timeline that Gu Changsheng saw himself, he could roughly deduce that before this winter, the Hell Gate was very likely to be a whole wave!
Then in about a month's time, the gates of hell will certainly not be idle. They should continue to prepare and plan for the ritual of the Yin Master......
According to this line of thought, perhaps the situation that has appeared in the north of Dongcheng now is in the 'Nightmare Space', which was forced to ignore the small half a year.
Gu Changsheng's thoughts are not stopping now, and his face is a little more nervous. Because according to the course he sees, it is not difficult for him to predict......
The elder Ge's trip should have been in vain.
Otherwise, it would not have produced the timeline that deviated from the 'eighteen layers of hell'.
Gu Changsheng wanted to remind the elder of the pavilion, after all, it seemed that at the moment, the only one who could wrestle with the old man Yin was this elder.
It's just that......
He needed another proper reason to do it.
Otherwise, he leaned over in a daze and confessed to the elder...... According to the temper of this little old man, he Gu Changsheng had to be stripped of a layer of skin.
顾长生便是这般左思右想了小会儿,最后暗暗摇头,只得先放弃了直接说明情况的念头。
After all, whether the elder chooses to believe him or not is still two words.
And......
It seems too late to speak now, the little old man is resolute, this is just a flash of effort, and everyone else has already run away.
Maybe Yan Ping has some means to get in touch, but that's all for later.
"Brother Gu, Brother Gu......"
There was a familiar movement beside him, which made Gu Changsheng come back to his senses slightly. He looked up, and now he just happened to meet Yan Ping's gaze in front of him.
The heir of the Vientiane Gate now has a solemn face, and he has lost the temperament he usually has.
He watched Gu Changsheng come back to his senses, and now he hurriedly turned around, and said without looking back as he walked towards the marginal compartment.
"Brother Gu, since Elder Ge has already instructed us, then we have to leave as soon as possible! This kind of thing should happen sooner rather than later...... You go downstairs first, and when I'm done with this, I'll go look for you."
Yan Ping's busy appearance does have a bit of the shadow of the elder pavilion. Now that Gu Changsheng is doing things for the first time, he doesn't dare to shirk it, so he walks downstairs in response.
He waited at the counter for a quarter before a rush of footsteps came from overhead. I saw Yan Ping eagerly go downstairs and leaned over, and when he saw Gu Changsheng, he raised his hand and said.
"Brother Gu, I've been waiting for a long time, come with me."
He walked ahead with great vigor, and finally leaned into the counter. Gu Changsheng saw him rummaging for a while, and finally found a brown scarf.
Shake, scatter. There was a piece of cloth more than half a meter long. Gu Changsheng swept it away, and the words 'closed today' on it were really eye-catching.
again
It's closed today......
Song Banxian came out like that, and now Yan Ping will do the same. Co-authoring this thing is some kind of inheritance of Vientiane Gate, right?
Gu Changsheng's thoughts floated in his heart for a while, and he saw the black and white rat that welcomed the guests poking out half of his head in the counter again.
Yan Ping didn't hesitate, and opened his mouth at the mouse.
"Remember, it's closed today, and the door won't open! Even if it's a guest, don't let them go upstairs, understand?"
The black and white rat squeaked, its head bobbing up and down for a while, and then it whispered in a thin voice.
"Closed today, closed today...... Don't pick up customers, meaning, okay!"
Yan Ping didn't seem to be at ease, so he turned to the counter again, took out two dried nuts, and stuffed them in front of the black and white mouse.
"You remember, if you're in trouble, go find Rhubarb first."
"It knows where to go. And if the situation is urgent, it is too late to deal with it, so I go to the second floor and knock over and break a few small teapots on the counter."
"There are two of my Yin Spirits hidden there, and they can be used to scare people, and I can get the information and will be back soon."
Yan Ping didn't seem to be the first time to ask like this, he said it quickly, and he didn't wait for the rat to react, he just got up and left.
Crossing the threshold, Gu Changsheng watched Yan Ping turn around and close the wooden door, hang the long lock, and deal with everything inside and out, which can be regarded as a reluctant sigh of relief.
"Brother Gu, it's been a long wait, let's hurry up and get on the road."
After dealing with all this, the tense expression on Yan Ping's face was also eased by three points. Gu Changsheng felt that the atmosphere was improving, so he thought for a moment, and then opened his mouth to ask.
"Brother Yan, dare to ask, what are we going to do now......
These words also made Yan Ping show a sudden realization, he 'hey' and hurriedly apologized.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm busy dealing with other things, but I almost forgot, Brother Gu is on a mission for the first time."
Yan Ping sneered three times, his steps began to gradually speed up, and now he walked in front, turned his head to Gu Changsheng and continued.
"Brother Gu, the two of us are going to a place in the west of the city to help Hong Er and deal with the abnormal situation that appeared over there."
"Considering that you haven't been on a mission yet, it's only reasonable for Elder Ge to ask me to take you once."
When Gu Changsheng heard this, he couldn't help but show a thoughtful expression on his face.
It turned out that this was what the elder of the pavilion had planned.
The way the old man leads the newcomer is indeed straightforward and quite simple. But I have to say...... It is precisely because it is effective that this method can be so enduring to endure.
"Brother Gu, the west of the city is not close to here, since we are in a hurry today, then we have to hurry up."
Listen to Yan Ping......
What else did he have to offer?
Saying this, Yan Ping led Gu Changsheng all the way, and finally stood in front of the door of a restaurant - looking up, the three-storey single-family building, with four black 'big lanterns' hanging at the door, also looked quite exquisite.
Along the back kitchen side, the fumes wafting out are quite heavy, but now I don't feel pungent when I smell it. To say that although this is past the hotel now, Gu Changsheng can still see the people inside.
In this way, it is not difficult to see that the business of this store is really not bad.
"Brother Gu, this is a restaurant owned by my distant relative. He is very good at craftsmanship, and he is also a well-known golden spoon in this eastern city. If he's free someday, I'll bring you here to taste something new."
As if sensing Gu Changsheng's gaze, Yan Ping followed his gaze and quickly reacted.
"Brother Gu is interested in these four guises?"
"This thing...... Disguise?"
Gu Changsheng replied slightly, and quickly remembered the corresponding content.
If this thing is right...... It should be again
It is called a drapery.
It is a representative utensil, because in the early days, the characteristics of the store were not obvious, and the business people did not write on the sign whether they were "grocery stores" or "restaurants".
In order to make it easier for pedestrians to distinguish, it is necessary to hang some conspicuous and eye-catching things outside, so that people can see clearly and not be confused.
Thinking of this, Gu Changsheng pursed his lips and smiled, and said politely to Yan Ping.
"It's just a distraction, don't worry. Brother Yan should deal with it quickly, the sooner we get on the road, the sooner we can finish the matter."
"It's easy to say, then Brother Gu will wait here for a while, and he will come when he goes."
After Yan Ping finished speaking, the whole person walked towards the point. Gu Changsheng is unfamiliar with life here, and he doesn't dare to move around at will.
He had to look left and right at the door of the shop for a while, and finally stood on the edge of the threshold, slightly fascinated by the four 'big lanterns' at the door.
It was also closer that Gu Changsheng could see some small words on it clearly.
'Open the door' and 'Wishing you prosperity'......
It seems to look the same as the bouquet of flowers when the new store opens in a modern context? Gu Changsheng had only heard the old man mention this kind of thing in his memory, but now that he saw it, he was indeed a little interested.
Because the guise is not hard to see.
It's rare to see that you can do a catering business, and you can hang four in one store.
Because Gu Changsheng remembered that hanging a banner was for making a single meal, or a simple shop for an early meal. And hanging two guises, it is a restaurant that is serious, cooking and cooking, and staying in the store, all of which can be done.
Compared with the first two, this one with four guises is the most powerful one.
It is said that those who fly in the sky, walk on the ground, and swim in the water can be leveled out on the ten grounds, and done with taste, so that they can hang up a whole four guises.
Let's compare side-by-side.
Put it in a modern context...... This has to be a skillful chef with a head and face to have the courage to hang up this thing.
After all......
The disguise is analogous to the signboard, if you meet someone who really cares, there is also a risk of 'kicking the hall'.
When the time comes to enter the store to find fault or something, it is uneven, not convinced, this pretense is taken off by life, the face lost is small, and whether the business can continue to be done, that is two words.
