Those craftsmen were the best craftsmen in the imperial capital, not only with superb skills, but also extremely fast, and all the mansions that had been abandoned for more than ten years were repaired in just a few days.

I'm afraid that this craftsmanship can be compared to no one else except those craftsmen in the Ministry of Industry.

Before they left, Gu Meng made a request.

That is, let them open all these houses, open a door in the wall, and make so many houses connected into one.

This is not an excessive request, besides, Gu Meng now has all the house deeds and title deeds in his hands, plus he is a distinguished guest of Prince Yu, so this request is directly satisfied.

As for Gu Ming's thoughts, it is easy to understand according to the craftsmen, after all, this is their own courtyard, and it is naturally more convenient to enter and exit with a door, of course, as a cultivator, if you want, you can climb over the wall......

After the craftsmen left, it rained for several days.

It's a rainy season, and it's normal.

Prince Yu would come here from time to time to bring some things that only a few people in the Xian Mall knew, such as His Majesty the Emperor's arrangements for trials, and which cultivators other princes brought.

"The two helpers of my second emperor brother have been confirmed, they are Liang Zhao of the Sword Court and the little novice of the Zhizen of the Forgotten Dust Temple, these two people are just afraid that they will be difficult to deal with. ”

"The eldest brother doesn't know who he invited, but he won't be weaker than the second brother, by the way, the innate sword embryo who has a deep friendship with Mr. Gu went to the third brother's mansion, as for the fifth and sixth brothers, I don't know their movements. ”

Prince Yu sat at the stone table and talked about what he knew.

Gu Meng seemed to be a little absent-minded, and he smiled casually: "Instead of talking about so many others, I would like to know who His Highness's other helper is." ”

Prince Yu said helplessly: "My threshold is not high, but too many people dislike it, and it is indeed very troublesome to find a helper for you." ”

Gu Meng quipped: "Your Highness is good as long as you find one, anyway, don't let me fight alone, otherwise I may really not be able to go back to Zheshan." ”

Prince Yu smiled slightly, "Naturally, I will do my best to ensure Mr. Gu's safety." ”

Gu Meng just smiled slightly, he actually didn't believe these words very much, firstly, because His Majesty the Great Qi Emperor's trial method had not yet been fully revealed, and secondly, according to the background of Emperor Yu, it was unlikely that he would do anything in the future.

Once the trial begins, the only thing Gu Meng can rely on is himself and the sword in his hand, and as for the rest, he will not have extravagant hopes.

Of course, Prince Yu is not a fool, there are some things, he knows very well, but there is no way.

Gu Meng can also understand.

The two of them gossiped again, and seeing that there were dark clouds covering the sky, Prince Yu got up to say goodbye, Gu Meng sent it to the door, and thanked him seriously: "I heard that this place has some involvement with the palace these days, and His Royal Highness should not be allowed to make a move." ”

Being in Xian Mall, even if the gate is not out, it is difficult not to know the news, especially for a cultivator like Gu Ming, the more things he knows.

Besides, it's hard to say whether those news were deliberately released by Prince Yu.

Prince Yu said with a smile: "Since Mr. Gu has already spoken, I naturally want adult beauty." ”

Gu Meng looked at him and said no more, the latter also turned around with a smile and entered the carriage parked in front of the courtyard, and the groom quickly drove away, leaving only the sound of horses' hooves getting farther and farther away.

Turn around and go back to the yard.

Senior sister Ahsan sat under the eaves again.

Gu Meng came over and sat beside her, and said with a smile: "Senior sister, I heard that there are a lot of rouges in Xian Mall, which are good, and I can't see them in Zheshan, so why don't you go shopping?"

Ah Sang said expressionlessly: "That's just a thing used by ordinary women to cover up their original faces, but it's a pity that the skin is a thing, as time passes, it will always become ugly, no matter how much you apply it, what's the use?"

Gu Meng said: "According to what Senior Sister said, then the women in the world have to watch themselves grow old and not make any efforts?"

Ah Sang didn't speak, just glanced at Gu Ming.

This glance is meaningful.

Gu Meng felt like falling into an ice cave.

He sensed that Senior Sister was really a little angry, so he hurriedly said, "Senior Sister, just say, don't take it seriously." ”

Ahsan stood up and didn't say anything, just turned and walked towards the house, leaving only a back.

Gu Meng smiled bitterly, and then heard thunder coming from the depths of the clouds.

Then it started to rain.

This is the time of year, and there is a lot of rain.

Gu Meng found an oil-paper umbrella, then glanced at the room where Ah Sang was, and then walked towards the courtyard with the umbrella.

This is the sound of rain falling on the umbrella, the sound of raindrops breaking on the bluestone slab, and the sound of rain falling on the leaves of flowers and plants.

This and that, it's all the sound of rain.

Gu Luo passed through the first gate and came to the courtyard next to him, the layout of this courtyard was not the same as the courtyard before him, but it was really very elegant, thinking that the master in front of him should be a literati and elegant guest, Gu Luo did not stay here, but continued to walk towards the front, passing through one courtyard after another.

These yards are his, so no one will say anything.

Besides, no one can see it.

After walking for almost half an hour, Gu Meng finally came to all his courtyards, the one closest to the west.

Next to this courtyard, it is also an ordinary courtyard, but that courtyard is about the same size as Gu Ming's courtyards combined.

Standing by the wall, Gu Meng was silent, just listening to the sound of the rain and thinking about a lot of things.

He knew that in that courtyard, there were cultivators.

But he firmly believes that the other party can't find him, and even if he can, he doesn't worry, because he is just wandering around his yard, what can others say?

Gu Meng leaned against the wall and said to himself, "I don't know if I can see you." ”

......

......

Behind that wall was a gazebo.

The pavilion is a little closer to this wall, I don't know what the design craftsman thought in the first place, how he built the pavilion here, and there is no lake in front of it, so the pavilion looks even more lonely.

At this moment, under the gazebo, there is a person.

To be precise, he is a young man with bright eyes and bright teeth, he is very good-looking, I am afraid that if anyone sees him for the first time, he will lose his mind for a moment.

Gu Meng definitely won't.

Because Gu Meng looks better than him.

The young man, dressed in a snow-white robe, stood under the gazebo, not knowing what he was thinking, perhaps thinking about the time spent in captivity for the past few years, or perhaps thinking about some questions about spiritual practice.

But what he should think about more should be that Emperor Daqi asked them to participate in the trial.

Yes, in this trial, the participants were not only the cultivators selected by the princes, but also the six monarchs of the small Nanling country.

They are the talking points after tea and dinner in Xian Mall, the sinners in the eyes of their respective ancestors, and the canaries raised by Emperor Daqi.

They are known as the Six Emperors.

This teenager is one of them.

He is the monarch of the Southern Chu Kingdom, famous for his outstanding appearance, if he hadn't been imprisoned here, I'm afraid that he would have already fallen into the confinement of those dignitaries and nobles in Xian Mall.

Those days will definitely be more unbearable than losing the territory of the country.

The young man exhaled a breath of turbidity, his brows furrowed slightly, as if he had thought of something unacceptable, and then his face became a little ugly, but fortunately, he quickly came back to his senses.

And at this moment, he heard a slight voice.

The sound was inaudible in the sound of the rain.

It was a small voice, but as a cultivator, he could naturally hear it, and when he looked up, his gaze was on the wall.

Someone is knocking on the wall.

It's very regular.

Knock gently.

The boy's pupils constricted, and after looking around, he made sure that no one was there, and then he picked up his umbrella and walked slowly to the wall, and finally stood still in front of the wall.

He trembled and reached out and knocked on the wall.

It is also a specific law.

After a few moments, both sides stopped, and for a moment it was quiet, except for the sound of raindrops hitting the green tiles.

"Is that you?"

The young man opened his mouth tremblingly, very excited, this was the most exciting day since he came to Xian Mall.

Just because across the wall, it could be that person.

"It's me. ”

A short time passed, and a slight but firm voice came from there.

"Why are you here, didn't I tell you how far to run? The young man trembled, and his voice was very slight, which meant that the other party was behind the wall, otherwise where could he hear it?

"Your Majesty is trapped here, and it is natural for a courtier to come and see it. The voice over there was calm, not emotional.

The young man's eyes were a little dim, but he quickly cheered up, "I have already said, it is the will of heaven that Nanchu is gone, what can you do alone, and the responsibility is not yours, I am not in a hurry, what are you in a hurry to do?"

There was some reproach in the voice, but more of a concern.

"I didn't come to Xian Mall to ...... For His Majesty, but for something else. ”

Immediately afterwards, the person on the other side slowly explained the ins and outs of the matter.

From going to Zheshan, to the sword meeting later, and then to today's Xian Mall.

There was some brilliance in the young man's eyes, as if he had heard this, as if he had experienced it himself, and he said, "You are indeed a good person, but when we meet later, you can't keep my hand." ”

The boy's self-proclaimed self-proclaimed self-proclaimed self-proclaimed me, but it didn't seem abrupt at all.

"I know. ”

There are only three words on the other side of the wall.

The young man said: "That's good, otherwise I don't worry, just by yourself, can you win?"

"If you work hard, you may not really win, but at least you have to save your life. ”

The young man nodded and smiled: "That's for sure, you can only save your life, without your life, you can't do anything." ”

There was silence on the other side of the wall.

The young man suddenly asked, "By the way, do you want Yingdu's fish belly?"
