Volume 1 The First Entry into the Other World Chapter 30 An Invitation from Gujiazhai
Opening the courtyard door, Li Xuanyi recognized the person at a glance as a small official under Guo Shan.
When the little official saw Li Xuanyi open the door, he hurriedly saluted and said:
"Li Zhutou, Guo County ordered you to go to the county government to discuss matters, this matter is very important, and I hope that Li Zhutou must go!"
Hearing the words of the little official, Li Xuanyi couldn't help but be stunned.
The last time I saw Guo Shan was before going to Yuanshan to exterminate the Scorpion Gang.
In this way, he has indeed not gone to the county office to look for Guo Shan for a few days, and I don't know what he is looking for him this time.
After responding, Li Xuanyi returned to the courtyard, and after telling Shangguan Yun that he was going to the county government to see Guo Shan, he walked towards the county government with the little official.
When he came to the inner room of the county office, Li Xuanyi saw Guo Shan sitting at the table, staring at a red invitation in a daze.
Seeing Li Xuanyi coming, Guo Shan stood up, handed the red invitation in his hand to the other party, and then said with some concern:
"Li Gongzi, look, this is an invitation from Gu Jiazhai, inviting you to Nanling for a banquet before noon tomorrow."
"Gujiazhai's invitation?"
Li Xuanyi couldn't help but be surprised.
Gujiazhai is the third target he is about to clean up, and Nanling is the location of Gujiazhai.
Gujiazhai, as the name suggests, is a cottage dominated by the Gu family, there are about thirty or forty minions in the village, about half of them are martial artists, and the highest cultivation is a first-order upper grade.
Gu Hai, the head of the Gu family, is the owner of the cottage, and his cultivation is a third-order upper grade, while the deputy owner of the village is his younger brother Gu He, who is a third-order middle grade.
In addition to Gu Hai and Gu He, their respective sons Gu Huai and Gu Ming are also the leaders of the village, and their cultivation is a third-order lower grade.
Because Nanling, where Gujiazhai is located, is located at the extreme south end of Jingxian County, close to the traffic artery, so there is an endless stream of businessmen and tourists passing through here.
And Gu Jiazhai relied on the advantage of force, and almost every day he had to go down the mountain to rob these passing merchants and travelers.
If someone dares to resist, then there is only one fate for him, and that is to be a different head.
Over the decades, at least a few thousand businessmen have been killed by Gujiazhai.
Therefore, whenever passers-by are about to pass through Nanling, they either take the initiative to hand over all their belongings, or they are forced to choose a detour.
If he doesn't, he has no chance of living.
Therefore, the atrocities of roadblocks and robberies in Gujiazhai have put businessmen and guests in several nearby counties at risk, thus seriously affecting the normal life of the people.
After quickly recalling the information about Gujiazhai in his mind, Li Xuanyi opened the invitation, and the first line was written with the words "Jing County Catcher Li Xuanyi Jingqi".
Looking down, in addition to giving the time and place of the banquet, the invitation also attached a sentence to the effect that the banquet was a family banquet, so I hoped that Li Xuanyi could come to the banquet alone.
After reading the invitation, Li Xuanyi couldn't help but be a little confused, which one did Gu Jiazhai do?
With questions in mind, he asked:
"Guo County Order, apart from this invitation, did the people from Gujiazhai say anything else?"
Guo Shan sighed, turned around and returned to the table, picked up a piece of paper, handed it to Li Xuanyi, and then said helplessly:
"Gu Jiazhai didn't send someone to send an invitation, but used an arrow to shoot this invitation and this piece of paper into the courtyard of the county government."
"I spotted them when I first came this morning, so I hastened to call you over to discuss them."
"This piece of paper is a letter, to the effect that Gu Hai and the others regret their previous act of robbing passing merchants and travelers, so they want to lead the entire Gu Jiazhai to return to the official government, hoping that we can agree to their act of atonement."
Hearing the other party's words, Li Xuanyi couldn't help but laugh angrily.
This Gu Jiazhai has been robbing the road for one or two decades, and now with just a letter and an invitation, he wants to erase his previous sins and put on the coat of the government.
Guo Shan obviously had the same idea, and seeing that Li Xuanyi was silent, he continued:
"Li Gongzi, I feel that Gu Jiazhai must not be sincere and obedient, and this banquet must be a trap."
"Someone reported to me yesterday afternoon that a caravan passing by Nanling was robbed by Gujiazhai and he was able to survive by handing over all his belongings."
"If they're going to be obedient to this, then why did they rob that caravan yesterday?"
"So I think that Gu Jiazhai will never be sincerely obedient, and Li Gongzi must not fall for them!"
Li Xuanyi thought for a while, and replied:
"Thank you Guo County for your kindness, but I think that since Gu Jiazhai has sent the invitation to our faces, wouldn't it be a little too timid if we don't go again."
"Guo County, please rest assured, as far as these small people in Gujiazhai are concerned, I can eliminate them alone!"
The cultivation of the four high-level leaders of Gujiazhai is all at the third-order level, and the cultivation of those minions is similar to that of the Black Dragon Gang and the Scorpion Gang.
Therefore, in the face of Gu Jiazhai, the cultivation of the sixth-order lower grade after transforming into Super Race 1 undoubtedly has a crushing advantage.
Therefore, what he just said is definitely not pretending to be forced, but he does have this strength.
Since the other party is engaged in a conspiracy with such a stupid method, then he will respond to all changes with the same attitude, and directly break into the other party's lair single-handedly, and pick up the Gu Jiazhai who is the party of the disaster with one person and one sword!
Hearing Li Xuanyi's impassioned words, Guo Shan responded with a fist:
"Li Gongzi is not only profound, but also arrogant, which is really admirable."
"But after all, there are many people in Gujiazhai, and they have been entrenched in Nanling for many years, so it is inevitable that there will be some hole cards, so I hope that the son will think twice."
Li Xuanyi knew that the other party was thinking about his own safety.
But he feels that sometimes, if you are afraid of wolves and tigers, then you must be afraid to do things, resulting in nothing being done.
On the premise of having enough strength, when it is time to be reckless, you must not be too reckless!
So he cleared his throat and said:
"Guo County, please rest assured, even if Gu Jiazhai has hole cards, I, Li Xuanyi, can pick this group of scum with one person and one sword!"
Seeing that the other party insisted on going, Guo Shan no longer persuaded him, after all, he had also seen the strength of the other party with his own eyes, and the whole person admired the other party's amazing talent in his heart.
And according to the fast catchers, when they were clearing the Scorpion Gang, the other party wiped out all the sixty or seventy people in the gang with only one person and one sword.
Therefore, he believed that the other party was absolutely capable of exterminating Gu Jiazhai alone!
Thinking of this, he opened his mouth and instructed:
"Okay, then please pay attention to your own safety, if you can't do anything, be sure to find a chance to leave in time!"
Li Xuanyi smiled slightly and responded:
"Thank you Guo County Order, Xuan Yi will definitely live up to his mission!"
After coming out of the county office, Li Xuanyi returned home and told Shangguan Yun that he was going to Nanling for a banquet at noon tomorrow.
Hearing this, Shangguan Yun's reaction was even more intense than Guo Shan's:
"Brother Xuanyi, don't go, Gujiazhai's conspiracy is written on your face, if you go to the banquet alone, won't you fall into their hands?"
