There are only a few words in the secret decree: Baixianzhuang is in trouble, go and find out quickly.

The emperor's seal is stamped on it.

The word is the emperor's imperial book, and the chapter is also the emperor's jade seal, so it is impossible to be wrong.

The only thing that makes people unpredictable is that the content is too vague, perhaps because the news is uncertain, so that the emperor cannot make an accurate judgment, and can only wait for him to get there.

Back at the inn where he was temporarily staying, Lu Jin took out his right hand hidden behind him from time to time to check.

Gu Shengchao quipped, "What are you doing, when did you learn to read faces?"

"Big Brother Gu teased, I was practicing the stealth technique that Sister Hongji taught me, she said that as long as she can control the true qi in her hand to change color, she will have a chance to learn this kung fu, if you can't, then you can only give up. She made me memorize all the formulas and methods, but I still haven't made any progress to this day, and sometimes I wonder if I really don't have this talent." Lu Jin said distressedly.

Gu Shengchao took out the "Explanation of the Formula" he carried with him and handed it to Lu Jin: "I have read this book many times, and it has helped me a lot, so I will give it to you to study." I don't know anything about what you're doing, so let's see if I can get some inspiration from this book."

"Thank you, Big Brother Gu!" Lu Jin happily took it, sat aside and couldn't wait to look at it.

"Actually, this book has nothing to do with me, it was given to me by Elder Shui Linglong when I was in the West Cold Kingdom, and it just so happened that you will transfer it to you when you are studying, hoping to improve your kung fu." Gu Shengchao told the truth.

Lu Jin was overjoyed, closed the book and said, "It turned out that Sister Shui gave it to you, and I miss her a little bit if you say that."

After loading the book, Lu Jin asked, "Has the appointment of the imperial court come, I am always so idle, I am afraid that I will hold back the problem."

Gu Shengchao hesitated for a moment and said, "The imperial court asked me to go to the Xilang Kingdom, there is something wrong with Baixianzhuang, I need to understand the situation and help them deal with it."

"Great, I can see Sister Water again." Lu Jin jumped up happily.

Later, seeing that Gu Shengchao's face was difficult, Lu Jin was puzzled, "What, what are the difficulties in going there?"

After hesitating for a moment, Gu Shengchao discussed: "I want to say that the road to Xilang Country is far away, and I am afraid that my sister will not be suitable on the road, or you should go back to the boat to help your father and mother first, and then I will look for you when I come back."

"Ahh Lu Jin was stunned for a moment, and stood there with tears falling again: "I knew you didn't want me, I didn't steal or rob, why do you always look at me unpleasantly, you have to drive me away!"

Gu Shengchao was at a loss, scratched his head and said, "What's going on, it's just that I don't know how long it will take, I'm wondering, your mother is not in good health, should you go back to visit, let the second elder rest assured."

"Anyway, you just dislike me, so you want to drive me away, as long as I go back, I will never see you again." Lu Jin cried so much that it rained, which looked heart-wrenching.

Looking at Lu Jin's sad appearance, Gu Shengchao said helplessly: "You also know where my old mansion is, and it is even more clear where my home in the capital is, how can I leave you alone." As long as you want, you can find it at any time. I promise that if I do drive you away, I will be thrown into the sea to feed the fish."

Hearing Gu Shengchao's oath, Lu Jin stared at a pair of teary eyes, and said in disbelief, "What you said is true?"

"I will never lie to you, this time you go home to visit your father and mother to reassure them, from now on, I will not interfere wherever you go." Gu Shengchao assured.

It's a long way to get to the land of Silan, and I don't know how long it will take.

Lu Jin's mother is not in good health, although she has been cured, no one can guarantee whether it will recur, Gu Shengchao asked her to go back because she was worried about this.

For his own selfish desires, let a little girl who is not familiar with the world accompany him on a long trip, and Gu Shengchao is also unable to sleep and eat in his heart.

There is another important reason, they are going to the Sileng Kingdom on this trip, and Cloud City will inevitably go.

Whether it was Baixianzhuang or Gu Shengchao's other friends, they were all there.

Among the many friends in Cloud City, Wan Yanxi is the most special, if the ambiguous relationship between the two is known by Lu Jin, and then passed back to the Dawu Dynasty, Gu Shengchao can't guarantee what will be waiting for him

Yes.

The last time he returned to the Valley of the Four Kings, Gu Shengchao didn't dare to tell Wan Ruo about this experience.

Once she knows, with Wan Ruo's fiery temper, the consequences are unimaginable.

Lu Jin has never left his parents, and he misses it for many days this time, and after Gu Shengchao said this, it inevitably evokes homesickness.

Gu Shengchao saw that she gradually stopped crying, and took out a silver ticket of one thousand taels from his arms and gave it to her: "It is inevitable that there will be expenses when you go back, and your mother also needs silver to see a doctor, bring this silver ticket with you!"

Subconsciously reached out to take it, and in an instant, Lu Jin retracted his hand again: "Thank you, Brother Gu, I can't ask for silver anymore."

"Is it too little?" Gu Shengchao took out a stack of silver tickets, about 10,000 taels or so, and sent them to Lu Jin: "Then take all of these."

Lu Jin was embarrassed, and waved his hand again and again: "I didn't mean that, I meant to give enough, I don't need it now."

Gu Shengchao smiled and said, "What are you polite, these were not mine originally, they were accumulated by my enemies and did not have time to use them. Since it's a windfall, there's no reason why you don't need it, so take it."

Staring at the silver tickets, how could Lu Jin refuse such a temptation at a young age, she reached out and picked out two silver tickets of five hundred taels, and said worriedly: "I have one thousand taels is enough, please take back the rest."

Gu Shengchao thought about it, and stuffed her with a few silver tickets of one hundred taels each: "You also need silver for accommodation and food on the road, and these are reserved for you to use on the road."

"After I visited my parents, where did I find you, were I waiting for you in the capital?" Lu Jin took the silver ticket, wiped the tears on his cheeks and asked carefully.

Gu Shengchao was panicked for a while, and let Lu Jin wait for him alone in the capital, and he was afraid that he would be snubbed by everyone like last time.

"Well, you can wait for me at Raven Bay near the Seven Star Cliffs." Gu Shengchao thought of a place.

Lu Jin wondered, "Are there any relatives of Big Brother Gu there?"

"This ......"

Gu Shengchao didn't know where to start for a while, so he had to bite the bullet and say, "My lady who hasn't passed through the door is there, I will definitely go to see her when I return, you can wait there."

"How many ladies do you have?" Lu Jin said in astonishment.

"Her name is Ding Ying, and she was originally a disciple of the Seven Star Cliff, and I met her after I killed the enemy. At that time, my dantian was damaged and her internal strength was completely gone, and she couldn't walk with an ankle injury, and the two of them walked back to the Seven Star Cliff together, which can be regarded as friends in distress."

Gu Shengchao avoided the important and trivialized, and talked in detail about the past between him and Ding Ying, as well as the process of Lu Chuan teaching him kung fu, and finally said: "No matter who goes to Luo Yao Bay first, we can go to the perfume store they run and settle down, and then wait patiently."

"I think it's better to forget it, if there is an inn nearby, I'll wait at the inn." Lu Jin remembered the cold reception he received in the capital and didn't want to have a conflict with Ding Ying.

"It's good that there is an inn not far from the perfume shop, and you can stay there." Gu Shengchao also guessed Lu Jin's concerns.

Lu Jin pondered for a moment: "If I arrive at Raven Bay, I will first go to the perfume store to inquire about your whereabouts, and if you are not there, I will find an inn to stay, but how do you know that I have arrived?"

"yes!" Gu Shengchao also made a difficulty: "I can't go from room to room and ask again, that's not appropriate."

"Maybe that's it." Lu Jin summoned her usual round shield with her left hand, "I asked a tailor to customize one out of cotton cloth according to the appearance of the shield, and then hung it outside the window of the guest room where I lived, Brother Gu could see it when he passed by, and it would not be difficult to find me."

Gu Shengchao gave a thumbs up: "It's still a sister who has a lot of ways, so it's decided."

After packing up, Gu Shengchao went to the county guard Hang Yifan to resign.

Hang Yifan was sorting out the dossier when he saw Gu Shengchao arrive and got up to salute: "My lord, this is leaving."

"Well, the Holy Authority has to obey it." Gu Shengchao was also helpless.

"The lower official has something that he wants to verify with the adults." Hang Yifan found the official report of the county order, and pointed to it: "This record is inconsistent, and the details should be brushed aside, but they are useless nonsense, and there must be fraud in them. I don't know if you know about it."

Hang Yifan was aware of everything, and Gu Shengchao did not hide it: "Actually, the person who pretended to be a powerful ghost was killed by me, and I didn't know the details of the county order, I asked the county order to write it like this."

"Why?" Hang Yifan was puzzled.

"When I go back to my hometown to visit, it is a private matter, and if there is a murder, I naturally have to avoid it, so I asked the county order to ignore me." The ancient saint told the truth.

"Okay, I'll make some changes and report it like this." Hang Yifan had to be accommodating to make the public more real.

Subsequently, Gu Shengchao went to Xilan Kingdom alone, and Lu Jin returned to his hometown alone to visit his parents.

For Lu Jin, many of the recent events are the first time, and she has endured many grievances and distresss that she should not suffer at her age, and she has taken all of them by herself.

Leaving Gu Shengchao, she thought that Xiang Hongji might still be refining medicine with Baili Huan in the old mansion of the Gu family, so she hurried there.

Finally, I came to the old house where I had lived for several days, but I saw that the door was locked.

She climbed over the wall and entered, and it was already empty.

From the front yard to the back yard, the unattended house looks desolate.

Lu Jin felt lonely like never before, standing alone in front of the small building, his nose was sour, and he almost shed tears again.
