The carriage hadn't stopped.

When the little guy at the door saw the flag of the Gu Mansion from a distance, he knew that it was the son of the Gu family who had arrived, so he hurriedly ran in to report.

After a while, Boss Xing of Yuelai Teahouse hurriedly stood at the door of the teahouse and bowed down to greet him:

"Gu Gongzi, Zhang Gongzi, you two are here, please come in quickly."

Gu Shun got out of the carriage, and behind him, Zhang Yi'an also followed.

Zhang Yi'an looked at the crowd of onlookers left and right, and knew that they were all attracted by the name of the Gu family, and only the Gu family could cause such a big sensation in Jiangnan City.

Now the Gu family has completely secured the position of the first family in Jiangnan City, and has thrown away the three major families of the year, except for the Zhu family, the Zhang family and the Lu family.

Boss Xing of the teahouse immediately stepped forward and said: "Gu Gongzi, your father came here yesterday and told me to take good care of you, please come in quickly, it's still an old place, I will ask the kitchen to add a few more dishes." ”

"Thank you Boss Xing for your kindness, you don't need to serve the dishes, pack a few for Brother Yi'an to take home later, and the rest will be distributed to the guests in the teahouse today, one per person, and if it is not enough, it will be deducted from my father's account."

Seeing this, Zhang Yi'an hurriedly said: "How can this make Brother Gu break the bank, Yi Anwan can't accept it." ”

"I'm not just here for you to eat, but also for your aunt. The Zhang family's dishes are tired of eating, and occasionally change the taste, the dishes in this Yuelai Teahouse are still good, so they should be treated as a tooth sacrifice for their aunt. Gu Shun said.

Gu Shun knew through mind reading that Zhang Yi'an's mother and son were not doing well in the Zhang family, and as the son of the head of the Zhang family, he belonged to the object of exclusion in the intricate factions of the Zhang family and the struggle between the wives and concubines of each house.

Not to mention the delicacies of the mountains and seas, it is already good to be able to eat enough.

Gu Shun saw through it and deliberately panicked, so that Zhang Yi'an could raise his head in front of outsiders, and at the same time, he could also give him and his mother real benefits.

Sure enough, Zhang Yi'an's eyes were red and said: "Thank you Brother Gu for your kindness, Yi An is better to be respectful than to obey his fate, but Yi An has nothing to repay Brother Gu, he really deserves it." ”

"Okay, okay, it's just a trivial matter, Brother Yi An made a big fuss. I heard that Brother Yi'an's calligraphy is good, so give me a piece of calligraphy another day. Gu Shun smiled heartily and helped Zhang Yi'an hide his embarrassment.

Zhang Yi'an knew that Gu Shun didn't want to lose face in front of outsiders, so he did it on purpose.

The Gu family definitely has no shortage of celebrity calligraphy and paintings, and his desire for his own words is just an excuse for him to accept the gift as a matter of course.

It is said that a thousand gold is easy to get, and a good friend is hard to find, and now I have met such a good friend and nobleman, which is really a blessing in life.

He couldn't help but admire and respect Gu Shun even more, and vowed to be friends with Gu Shun for life.

Thinking about it, Zhang Yi'an wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his sleeve, "Let Brother Gu smile, I will write a picture another day and give it to Brother Gu in person."

Boss Xing said with a smile: "Then according to what Gu Gongzi said, today I will give all the guests who visit Yuelai Teahouse a free dish per person." ”

Suddenly, countless cheers rang out from all around the teahouse, and Gu Shun's voice was booming.

"Gu Gongzi is righteous."

"Thank you, Master Gu, for the reward."

In the midst of countless compliments and thanks, Gu Shun and Zhang Yi'an, under the leadership of Boss Xing, went up to the second floor.

Passing by the corner of the stairs, Gu Shun happened to see the storyteller set up a stall again, so he stopped and listened to a few words.

As the teahouse with the highest specifications in Jiangnan City, Yuelai Teahouse is mostly visited every day by dignitaries and warriors, ordinary storytellers are not qualified to come to tell stories inside, only those who are well-informed, well-informed, and full of wealth can receive invitations to tell stories here.

The content of the storytelling is also varied, from chatting about strange things to hunting for curiosities, from martial arts strange things to historical biographies, everything is available.

Much of his knowledge of the ancient cult was obtained from these storytellers.

Gu Shun used to come to Yuelai Teahouse almost every day to sit, and he had seen people who often told stories here, but today this one is a fresh face.

Seeing Gu Shun stop, Boss Xing specially introduced: "Gu Gongzi, today's storyteller's surname is Qu, and he calls himself Wuhu Qu Laosan, and he only came to Jiangnan City today.

He said that because he was hungry, he found that the money had been stolen and there was no money to settle the bill, so he volunteered to tell a story here to pay off the debt. ”

As soon as the words fell, Qu Laosan over there patted the wood and said in a dignified manner: "Everyone, I am Wuhu Qu Laosan, I don't know who has ever heard of my name, today I happened to pass by Jiangnan City, but I found that I lost my entanglement when I was eating.

Warriors are never eaten by spurs, and today I will reveal a piece of information to you in the name of storytelling.

Your opportunity to make a contribution has come, and if you want to know what it is, each of you will reward me with ten copper coins, and I will tell you about it. ”

When the people below heard this, they immediately booed and showed no interest.

"Go down, you, and tell the story like this."

"This eighty percent is a charlatan, if you want to make meritorious contributions, eliminate demons and defend the road, and rejuvenate my Han family, what else can be compared with it."

Gu Shun lost the interest in listening, turned around and continued to go up, and came to the third floor after a short time.

As soon as he walked to the corner of the escalator on the third floor, the angry defense of Qu Laosan came: "You people with eyes and no beads, you don't know how important what I want to say is, this matter is related to the Demon Sect outside the gate. ”

Hearing the word Demon Sect, Gu Shun suddenly stopped, came to the escalator, and looked down from above.

Qu Laosan continued: "You don't know, there have been rumors in the rivers and lakes recently that the Demon Sect has sacked a village in Chuzhou. ”

"How is this possible, the Demon Sect has actually come to the Guannei, don't you spread rumors and cause trouble here and exaggerate panic."

"This matter is absolutely true, the people of that village were almost slaughtered, and the death was extremely miserable, it was definitely not done by ordinary Jianghu warriors, probably only the Demon Sect back then would be so ruthless."

The people and merchants present all looked at each other in fright, and the fear rooted in the depths of their memories made them shudder when they heard the name of the Demon Sect.

Just because the suffering brought by the Demon Sect to the people of the Central Plains was too profound, too many people died at the hands of the Demon Sect, and too many people were poisoned by the Demon Sect, their wives were separated, and their families were ruined.

Even after the defeat of the Demon Sect in the Central Plains, the Demon Sect was still a taboo passed on by the people of the Central Plains, and the nightmare that haunted the hearts of the people of the Central Plains lingered for a long time.

Now that the Demon Sect has the possibility of reappearing in the Central Plains, how can they not be afraid.

"Now that the Central Plains is occupied by the Hu people, and the border affairs are deserted, it is not impossible for the Demon Sect to take this opportunity to sneak into the Central Plains quietly."

"This is over, the current martial arts group has no leader, and the leader of the martial arts alliance has disappeared for many years, and I don't know if it is dead or alive. The territory of the Han Dynasty was occupied by the Hu court, and the people were already living in poverty, and the demon cult was resurrected, and they didn't know what the Central Plains was going to become. ”

"I'm a businessman, wouldn't I dare to run out, if I encounter a gang of thieves and bandits, as long as I pay the money, I can still save my life, if I meet someone from the Demon Sect, I will definitely die."

Seeing that the atmosphere was mobilized, Qu Laosan changed his tone and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, what I want to talk about today is not about the return of the Demon Sect to the Central Plains, but what they are looking for. ”

"What the Demon Cult is looking for? When the Demon Sect went to a village to slaughter a village, wasn't it a demonstration to the Central Plains Martial Arts. ”

"No, no, you think that the Demon Sect sneaked into Chuzhou from Longxi unknowingly, just slaughtering a village, and exposing his plan, would the Demon Sect really be so stupid."

"Then what do you say are those damned demon cults?"

Qu Laosan did not answer, but pointed to the bowl in front of him, indicating that he was shy in his pocket, and if he wanted to know the follow-up content, he would put more reward money into the bowl.

Everyone's interest was hoisted, and in an instant, countless copper coins were thrown from the upper floor.

Although many people are still skeptical, the mention of the Demon Cult still arouses their curiosity.

Qu Laosan didn't expect that the Demon Sect could make so much money, just mentioning a name, there were so many people who gave rewards, as if he saw a big way to get rich.

He didn't continue to hide, and said bluntly: "Actually, the village where the Demon Sect was slaughtered in Chuzhou has a lot of origins, and the people in the village are rumored to be from the Han court, and they secretly guard the secret key of the Han arsenal, and that secret key is the key to open the Han arsenal. ”
