Chapter 200: Situation
Gu Yue said with a smile, her face showed a look of joy because she saw Gu Xiu, and she couldn't hear in her words that Gu Xiu didn't take the initiative to complain to her.
"Ninth sister. "When Gu Xiu and Gu Yue were in the Gu family, although they couldn't be called sisters, they got along quite well.
But because of Gu Yue and Shi Meilan's eavesdropping seven years ago, there was a gap between the two sides.
Gu Xiu didn't know what Gu Yue thought, but she no longer had the intention of being a sister to Gu Yue.
What's more, at the birthday banquet of the city lord's wife, the strange words Gu Yue said after winning the illusion talisman always made Gu Xiu have doubts about Gu Yue's origin.
Gu Xiu knew that Gu Yue was not a monk who had ascended from the immortal realm, she was born by her second aunt Pang Zhenna, just like herself, from a baby to the present.
She couldn't help but wonder if her origin was as strange as herself.
It's just that her original world is definitely not the realm of cultivating immortals.
Because of this, Gu Xiu just wanted to stay away from Gu Yue.
A person with memories of the past can be stronger or weaker.
And Gu Yue is obviously the former.
But now, Gu Xiu was thinking about Gu Shu, and Gu Yue took the initiative to talk again, so she could inquire from her.
"Ninth sister, long time no see. Gu Xiu said with a smile, "Since I returned to the City Lord's Mansion three years ago, I have been in retreat and cultivation, and I only came out of the customs a few months ago, because I received a lot of orders for magic clothes, so I have been busy making clothes, and the ninth sister is now in the kitchen hall?"
Although these are all prevarications, since you want to inquire about things from Gu Yue's mouth, you always have to take care of your face.
Gu Yue nodded, and said with some shame: "Although I won the selection quota back then, my strength was not good, and in the end, I still used the quota of miscellaneous disciples compensated by Senior Xu, but fortunately, I was able to go to the kitchen hall, and I got what I wanted." ”
Gu Xiu nodded and asked, "Has the ninth sister been home all these years?"
"Immortal Water City?"
Gu Xiu nodded, "Naturally it's Xianshui City, since I left Xianshui City seven years ago, I haven't been back, and I don't know what happened to my family?"
Gu Yue smiled: "I haven't gone back either, but the fourth brother went back once in the first two years." ”
"Fourth brother?" Gu Xiu ignored Gu Sheng.
Gu Yue nodded, "The fourth brother is a natural divine vein, but because his cultivation was too low, he was not selected to enter the Luoying Valley Secret Realm trial, but he participated in other trials, and now he is also a disciple of the inner city, but now he has gone to the field to practice, and he is not in the City Lord's Mansion."
Two years ago, he received the task issued by the City Lord's Mansion to go to Xianghai City, so he went back to Xianshui City by the way.
Eighth sister, you don't know, now Xianshui City has changed a lot, the roads have been widened, the city walls have been raised, the city protection array has also been upgraded, and the pills and magic weapons sold in the pill shops and magic weapon shops under the jurisdiction of the city lord's mansion have also increased, and the grade has also increased.
I also heard that the disciples of the City Lord's Mansion of Immortal Water City, their current discipleship number has doubled compared to before.
I heard the fourth brother say that these changes are all on the surface, and there are many benefits in the dark. ”
Gu Xiu originally meant to ask Gu Yue about the situation of the Gu family, but she didn't expect Gu Yue to tell her about the situation in Xianshui City.
When she first heard it, Gu Xiu was also a little surprised, but after a little thought, she understood why Xianshui City had such a big change.
Back then, City Lord He wanted to marry Yuan City Lord, the city lord of Fengcheng, and get a share of the mining of iron ore, but later Yuan City Lord fell, and the new city lord of Fengcheng should have already taken office.
City Lord He's plan to divide the iron ore naturally failed.
But during that trip to Heavenly Axe Mountain, City Lord He earned greater benefits for Xianshui City.
That is the ancient artifact Sky Cutting Axe.
At the birthday banquet of Mrs. Nuoling, the city lord He dedicated the sky-cutting axe to Mrs. Nuoling, that is, to the Shangcheng City Lord's Mansion.
With such a treasure, even if the Shangcheng City Lord's Mansion accepts it calmly, it will not forget the benefits of the treasure donor, He City Lord.
For Shangcheng, which is rich in resources and wealthy, helping a small Xianshui City is simply a gesture.
Therefore, it is not surprising that Xianshui City has changed today.
"What about the family, how are the family all these years?" asked Gu Xiu.
Gu Yue said with a smile: "It's all good, my grandfather and grandmother are still in good health, the second uncle and ancestor are in charge of the family, although the eldest uncle and aunt have not advanced, but the cultivation is still smooth, by the way, the eldest sister successfully transformed the pulse six years ago, and the third sister seems to have ...... married."
"Does the ninth sister know where the third brother-in-law is from? Is he a monk or a mortal? If so, what is the monk's cultivation? What is his age? What is his character? How did he and the third sister meet? Who is in charge of this family affair? Are they happy with each other?"
Gu Xiu was waiting for Gu Shu's news, and as soon as she heard Gu Yue talk about Gu Shu's situation, she immediately interrupted Gu Yue and asked a series of questions.
Gu Yue was slightly stunned, Gu Xiu frowned, "You don't know?"
Gu Yue shook his head, "Some know, some don't know, the third brother-in-law seems to be a monk from the Rock City Lord's Mansion, and I said in a letter from home before, it seems to be a cultivation in the Scattered God Period, I don't know the specific age, I don't know that uncle, so I don't know what the character is."
The seventh sister wrote to say that the eldest sister and the third sister went out for a trip, and when they came back, they brought the third brother-in-law, saying that the third brother-in-law was the son of the third sister's life-saving benefactor, and traveled to Xianshui City, so he invited him to come to the house as a guest, and the third brother-in-law lived at home for more than ten days, and the third sister fell in love for a long time, so he asked the eldest uncle and aunt to marry the third sister to him, and the third sister herself was very willing, and went with the third brother-in-law to ask the second uncle and grandfather and grandmother to ask them to be fulfilled.
I heard that the second uncle was not at ease, and specially asked the eldest sister, the third sister and the third brother-in-law get along on weekdays, as well as the situation when they met the third brother-in-law, the character of the third brother-in-law she observed these days, etc., the eldest sister had a good evaluation of the third brother-in-law, and the third brother-in-law also took out the identity jade plate of the Iwacheng City Lord's Mansion, and some of the situations he said about the Iwacheng City Lord's Mansion were not very different from me and the fourth brother who wrote to tell the family, so in the end the second uncle still agreed to this family matter. ”
"So, this family affair is very good?"
Gu Xiu breathed a sigh of relief, "Ninth Sister knows the name of the third brother-in-law, in two months, I am going to go back to Xianshui City, and I can go to Rock City to see the third sister." ”
Gu Yue seemed to have a difficult face, "Ninth Sister doesn't know the name of the third brother-in-law?" Gu Xiu asked again.
"Not really. Gu Yue glanced at Gu Xiu, "Actually, after I learned that the third sister was married to the senior uncle of the Yancheng City Lord's Mansion, I sent a letter to Senior Sister Shi and asked her about the third brother-in-law's situation, but the result was...... But it'......"
Gu Xiu had a faint bad premonition in her heart, "But what?"
"But there is no such person, and the Rock City City Lord's Mansion does not have such a person as Qian Rujiang at all. Gu Yue said.
"That person's name is Qian Rujiang?"
That faint sense of unease became a reality.
