Chapter 54: See Sun Huai Again
Lu Kun assigned a task, and several people were ordered to withdraw, and they all prepared to take the carriage back to their small mansion, only Lu Zhiang stumbled to his feet and went to the backyard, where he lived.
Seeing his figure slowly disappearing, the fifth son, Lu Wen, and the seventh son, Lu Hua, could no longer suppress their disdain.
"Big brother, the head of the family is too much, if it goes on like this, the position of the next head of the family will definitely fall to him Lu Zhiang!"
"Yes, big brother! You are smart and capable, and your cultivation is no worse than him, why are you always pressed by him! Our brothers are all for you! ”
Lu Jingyuan's eyes were also on Lu Zhiang, even though he hated it in his heart, he still smiled slightly, so that others couldn't see it at all.
He and Lu Zhiang also don't have a father, Lu Zhiang's father and mother died by mistake while cultivating, but his father and mother were sacrificed for the Lu family!
Both generations of them have contributed everything to the Lu family, and he will never allow his credit to be ignored!
Thinking of this, Lu Jingyuan secretly took a deep breath and said calmly: "The cultivation of the family master is high, the spring and autumn period is in full bloom, the next family head is not allowed to talk nonsense in the future, who knows what will happen in the future." ”
Maybe Lu Kun didn't help Lu Zhiang up, and he died.
Maybe Lu Zhiang didn't have that life, so he died first?
"The emperor has his own head of the family to say, you have to follow the line of the major families, you must go to see it in person, maybe there will be an unexpected gain."
After that, several people got into the carriage and went back to their homes.
*
Yesterday's episode, Ling Ge didn't take it to heart, after sleeping in Gong Shan's carefully arranged room for the night, she thought that the matter of finding the master should be sooner rather than later, and she would set off today.
Gong Shan was waiting for Ling Ge to have breakfast together in the small flower hall, and when he saw Ling Ge coming, he couldn't help but show a stunning smile and exclaimed softly: "Ling Ge, you should dress up like this, it's so good-looking!" ”
At this time, Ling Ge was wearing a goose yellow long skirt, and the bright colors set off her delicate and refined appearance was particularly delicate, such as the blue jade hairpin inserted on the waterfall green silk, which was a good age of seventeen, and she was shocked with a little modification.
Ling Ge herself was a little awkward, she was not a person who liked to pay attention to these things from her previous life to the present, and in An Longguo, she wore a white dress every day, rather than thinking about dressing up and putting on makeup, it was better to use this time to cultivate!
However, the room where she slept was filled with all kinds of luxurious dresses and jewelry that Gong Shan had prepared in advance, and the maid who served her tried on a lot of makeup diligently, and finally Ling Ge insisted on it being so simple.
Ling Ge sat down and took the porridge handed by Gong Shan, took a sip and said, "I'm going to pack up my things and set off later, the national teacher said that the old man may not accept me easily, I want to go early." ”
With a "pop", the spoon in Gong Shan's hand fell into the bowl.
Ling Ge looked up, only to see that Gong Shanru's face was as breezy and bright as the moon, and he frowned and asked, "Ling Ge, have I not taken good care of me these days?" What's wrong, you say. ”
"No, no." Ling Ge was taken aback.
Gong Ji is sick, but the injury will recur and die of pain will not change her face, how has she ever seen such a posture!
Gong Shan said again: "Then why are you leaving so soon, we have only known each other for three days." ”
"But, but the purpose of my coming out this time is to apprentice, what's the matter with staying here?"
"So that's the case," Gong Shan was relieved when he heard this, and chuckled: "I also want to go ahead of you about this matter, don't worry." ”
"Huh?"
"The national teacher sent a letter, so I sent someone to find the old-timer, but I didn't find anyone, and his boy said that he had been away from home for a long time, and he didn't know where he had gone, and he didn't know when he would come back."
Ling Ge was a little skeptical, "Really? ”
The third child of this palace is really old and sophisticated, and he immediately changed his face, and he just showed weakness and pretended to be good!
Gong Shan continued to smile and said: "Yes, I have already sent someone to guard there, once the old man goes back, he will send a message to inform me, Ling Ge, you can live in this Qutong City for a few days with peace of mind, and appreciate the customs of Lindan." ”
"Besides, there are still people in the city waiting to see you."
Until the meal was over, the two went out, and Gong Shan didn't reveal who wanted to see her, saying that he wanted to surprise her.
The two of them rode eastward in a carriage, and there were more and more shops and pedestrians on the side of the road, obviously becoming more and more prosperous.
But there are also more and more beggars nesting on the side of the road in the corner.
At first it was just one or two, then it was a group of three or five, and finally the beggars on both sides of the road sat neatly one after another, out of step with the prosperity of the capital.
Ling Ge was quite surprised, "I met that pair of beggar mother and daughter yesterday, I only regarded it as an exception, I didn't expect so many beggars in Qutong City!" ”
In Anlongguo, she had never seen so many homeless people on the streets.
Gong Shan also lifted the curtain to look at those people, and his tone was inexplicably a little low, "The road we walked into the city yesterday was not lively, so there were few beggars." The beggars in Qutong City basically gather on this street, and a batch freezes to death every winter, and the number will increase again in the next spring. ”
"Why? Are there many natural and man-made disasters in Lindan? ”
"Natural disasters are nothing, almost all of them are man-made disasters," Gong Shan's voice was even colder, "In the world of cultivators, the lives of ordinary people are worse than ants. It is in Anlong Kingdom that they can live an ordinary life. ”
"This is also why An Long Guo was able to resist the Thousand Mountains Sect with his own strength and survive safely until now."
There are endless people who support it and yearn for it.
Ling Ge looked at the sky, it was almost winter again.
"But why are they all gathered here?"
"Because, of course, there's food here. Ling Ge, our destination is the same as theirs. ”
The farther east went, the wider the road became, and the beggars on both sides lined up and sat honestly in their places basking in the sun, without noise or noise.
At the head of their team, there is a three-storey building, lined up with five shops, tall and elegant, and a golden plaque "Gufang Pavilion" hangs on the upper floor.
This Lonely Pavilion is the most spectacular loft within a radius of several miles.
At this time, in the side door of the Gufang Pavilion, several people dressed as stewards were giving porridge, and after the two pots of porridge were served, the steward said loudly: "Today's porridge is finished, come back tomorrow!" ”
The beggars' voices gradually dispersed, and several of them bowed to the steward in thanks.
The stewards said that these beggars did not know if they could survive this winter, and when they looked up, they saw two extremely handsome figures, a man and a woman, getting out of the carriage.
"Ouch, it's the good young master who is here! The good young master has come to our big steward? Come in, come in, come in! ”
Several people diligently welcomed Gong Shan and Ling Ge into the Gufang Pavilion.
When Ling Ge was marveling at the most imposing attic in Qutong City that would give porridge to the poorest beggars, he was surprised to see that this steward had a warm attitude.
"Gong Shan, what kind of place is this?"
"Gufang Pavilion is the most famous auction house, not only in Lindan Kingdom, but also in the entire Shengzhou Continent, almost all important countries have their branches, and this one in front of me is the only branch in Lindan Kingdom."
"Oh?" Ling Ge picked up the tea served by the little servant and smelled it, and sure enough, it was fragrant in his nose, not much worse than what Gong Shan drank himself.
"The good young master is really exquisite, I am following you." She smirked.
Gong Shan shook his head slightly, but instead picked up the teacup and saluted Jing Lingge, "Speaking of which, I am stained with your light." ”
"Although I have been operating in Lindan for several years, and I have a little thin noodles in front of all forces, Gufang Pavilion is ten thousand times stronger than me, and I can eat in the entire continent, and this kind of power will not have a deep friendship with me."
"But because of you, Ling Ge, now I'm also a distinguished guest here."
"Huh?" The more Ling Ge listened, the more confused she became, how could it be because of her that she had stepped into the Lindan Kingdom for the first time in her life?
"Hey, you make it clear......"
Before he finished his sentence, he heard the sound of hurried footsteps outside the door, and then the door was pushed open suddenly, and a voice called out in surprise: "Miss Zhuo?!" ”
Ling Ge looked up and saw that it was an acquaintance!
"Sun Huai?! How did you end up here! Her eyes widened.
The person who came was Sun Huai, a one-star gray spirit realm rescued in Anlong Kingdom, at the beginning, Gong Jiyi said that he would help him enter the sect to apprentice and cultivate, but later because of the rescue of Gu Qing, Sun Huai met Wu Qianqian.
The generous and hearty Wu Qianqian tried her best to persuade him to worship the Yunyan Sect, and also said that the Yunyan Sect is heaven and earth, what "the exercises and techniques are very easy to learn, and you can't learn the master to hand them over in person", what "the senior brothers and sisters are all very good-natured and never fight"......
Gong Jiyi also said that the Yunyan Sect has a profound heritage, so Sun Huai moved his mind to give it a try.
He came to Lindan here to prepare some gifts for his apprenticeship.
As soon as Sun Huai finished saying these things, another person walked in outside the door, and said with a smile towards Gong Shan: "Young Master Shan, I've been waiting for a long time, and I'm entangled in trivial matters, so I'm sorry." ”
The person who came was in his forties, dressed in a brocade robe, and his hat was inlaid with a huge pearl.
Sun Huai introduced: "This is Sun Hou, the second uncle of my clan. ”
Gong Shan also said: "Steward Sun is polite, this is Zhuo Lingge, Miss Zhuo." ”
As soon as he heard Ling Ge's name, Steward Sun's body stiffened, and the polite smile just now immediately put away.
He stepped forward to take a closer look and asked, "This is Miss Zhuo who saved my nephew and grandson?!" His voice trembled slightly.
"Second uncle, it's her!"
Ling Ge said embarrassedly: "A little thing, I helped with it...... Oops! ”
Sun Hou bowed his head and knelt down to worship, which startled Ling Ge and hurriedly went to help, but he still insisted on bowing deeply before getting up.
"Miss Zhuo, forgive me! Since you saved your little nephew that day, you are the benefactor of our Sun family, I didn't expect to see you so soon, thank you in person, I am so excited! ”
"Miss Zhuo is really amazing, not only for good character, but also for her temperament, since she is here this time, she must stay for two more days, so that the old man can be entertained!"
……
Sun Hou said a basket of thanks, and he was almost so excited that he burst into tears, Ling Ge couldn't resist but couldn't shirk it.
Gong Shan winked at her secretly: Look, am I stained with your light?
Seeing that Sun Hou was about to rebuild Ling Ge's praise and grace, Ling Ge hurriedly diverted the topic: "Steward Sun, when I came in just now, I saw you giving porridge, I didn't expect such a famous auction house to care about these poor people." ”
