Chapter 17: Going to the Feast
Back at home, Su Changan was going to say something to Su Tai, but his mouth just opened. But as soon as Su Tai entered the door www.biquge.info, he walked straight to his room, and after rummaging through the cabinets for a while, he took out a worn-out long riding boot from the foot of the bed, and then reached out to pound it in for a while.
The boots had obviously been left out for a long time, and from the moment he was taken out, the room had been filled with the sour smell of adult vinegar.
Su Changan's brows furrowed, he didn't know what his father was doing, it could be seen that he had a focused look on his face, and naturally he didn't dare to disturb.
After a while, the sour smell in the room had made Su Changan feel sick, but Su Tai's face was happy, and he finally took out something from his broken shoes.
He casually threw his shoes aside, and then hurriedly handed the thing to Su Changan's arms.
At this time, Su Changan saw that the thing was clearly a big money bag, and judging from its weight, the money in it was extremely expensive.
"This is the gold you were rewarded when you were knighted, I used three taels to repair the mansion gate, and the rest of Lao Tzu will be saved for you! You take this money, run quickly, run as far as possible, if you fucking head is cut off, my old Su family will be the last, how can you explain to your mother and your grandfather after Lao Tzu dies?" Su Tai said, the look on his face was extremely anxious.
"......" Su Changan was speechless for a while, he looked at the silver taels in his hand, and couldn't tell whether he should be moved or sad in his heart, he looked at his father who was getting a little old very seriously, and asked: "Dad, do you also think I am a spy of the demon clan?"
It's okay for others not to believe in him, and it's okay for others to misunderstand him. But if his father also looked at himself like this, Su Changan couldn't help but feel a little disappointed when he thought of this.
Su Taike couldn't see the loss in Su Changan's heart, after he heard the words, he stopped what he was doing, turned his head and looked straight at Su Changan, a pair of tiger eyes widened.
If it was in the past, Su Tai showed such a look to Su Changan, then he should have to teach him a lesson.
From childhood to adulthood, I don't know how much Su Chang'an has suffered like this.
Now that he had entered the question, his father was still in the Nine Stars.
It stands to reason that even if he stood still and let Su Tai make a move, he wouldn't be able to hurt him a bit.
But he still instinctively shrunk his neck.
Just like Su Tai often said on his lips, Lao Tzu will always be Lao Tzu, and a son will always be a son.
This has nothing to do with status or cultivation.
Even if he achieves star death, even if he has a remarkable status, he is still the Su Changan, the Su Changan who can teach him a lesson at any time if he wants to.
Su Tai did do as Su Changan expected, and did it.
He slammed Su Chang'an on the chest, and scolded with a big grin: "You are Lao Tzu's cub, how many pounds and taels do you have?
Su Changan was stunned when he heard this, although Su Tai's words were not good, but falling on Su Changan's ears made the young man's mood inexplicably better.
The corners of his mouth hooked up with a smile, and he was about to say something, but Su Tai said again in a hurry.
"But the court wants to want you, it's useless for Lao Tzu to say this, you hurry up and take the money and run away, my old Su family has been passed down for five generations, but I will point to you to spread the branches and leaves for us!" As he spoke, he was about to reach out and pull Su Changan out of the door.
Su Changan probably also understood his father's worries, after all, Su Tai was just an ordinary non-commissioned officer in a border town, and in their hearts, most of them felt that this court was the sky, and the people did not fight with the officials, so they were naturally worried about the safety of Su Changan, who was a wanted criminal.
Su Changan couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Not to mention that the imperial court is now busy dealing with the rebels in Shu and has no time to take care of him, just with his current cultivation, who can really keep him without Xing Death? Moreover, with his relationship with Gu Xianjun, the northern land should be the safest place for him.
It's just that these things are extremely complicated, he didn't know how to talk to Su Tai for a while, and after a period of hesitation, he slowly explained the stakes to Su Tai, and Su Tai seemed to understand it, but he felt extremely profound.
Su Tai has always loved face, which can be seen from the tall courtyard wall.
After all, spending a lot of money to repair a mansion but not building a house is probably only done by an old man with a good face like Su Tai.
His son, whom he hadn't seen for three years, told the story of the matter, although Su Tai didn't quite understand, but he didn't want to leak his cowardice in front of his son, so he nodded thoughtfully. "Well, it's not unreasonable for you to say that. ”
Su Changan still doesn't understand his father's little Jiujiu. He hurriedly hit the railway while it was hot, "Don't worry, it's not too early, I'll go to Taishou Mansion for an appointment first, and I'll talk to you when I come back." As he spoke, he handed back the gold in his hand, turned around, and before he walked out of the door, he seemed to remember his identity, and suddenly turned his head and asked.
"Dad, when I left the Northland, didn't you say that you wanted to take the money and take a few concubines and add a few younger brothers to me. Why haven't there been any movement in the past three years, is it because I am ill? I am familiar with the Gu family, but I can invite you the best doctor in the north. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Su Tai's face change.
"Get out!" he shouted, and the money bag in his hand was thrown towards Su Changan.
However, with Su Changan's cultivation, this naturally couldn't hurt him, his body flashed, and he went out of the door, and the house suddenly sounded the heavy sound of the money bag slamming on the door, and Su Tai's somewhat angry shout.
......
Su Changan was led by the servant and walked through the main hall of the Taishou Mansion.
This so-called banquet is different from what he imagined.
He did not see the guests coming around, nor did he see the sumptuous delicacies, but was led by the servants, and after walking for a long time, he came to a study.
He didn't do what he thought, and pushed the door straight in.
There was an indescribably cold aura from the room that made his brow furrow.
And Gu Ning was sitting in front of a low couch in the study at the moment, pouring tea slowly, as if he had been waiting here for a long time, his side face was flickering by the light of the jumping fire, and he looked indescribably weird.
Su Changan walked to the side of the low couch, but he didn't take a seat, he stood there, looked down at the man in front of him, and asked, "Didn't you say that there was a banquet? Why is there only this tea?"
"If Brother Su wants to eat something hungry, he just needs to give an order, and no one in this mansion will obey, but I expect Brother Su to want to ask me something now, right?" Gu Ning had already filled a cup of tea at this time, and he said slowly, the teapot in his hand moved to another teacup.
"......" Su Changan was speechless, he looked at Gu Ning silently, obviously agreeing with this man's words.
At this time, the tea in the other teacup was also filled.
"Brother Su, please take a seat. He put the teacup on the opposite side, turned his head to look at Su Changan, and said with a smile.
Su Changan didn't doubt him, he sat down straight on the other side of the low couch, but he didn't mean to pick up the teacup, he just looked straight at Gu Ning, his eyes flashed, and his body was cold.
"Why does Brother Su look at me like this? What's wrong with Gu?" Gu Ning smiled, reached out and picked up the teacup on the table, put it to his mouth and took a sip, the whole process he did not slow or hurry, gentle and elegant, and had the calm appearance of a Confucian and Taoist sage.
"How did you ask!" Su Changan still looked at Gu Ning with a cold face, and asked such a question in his mouth at that time.
This question is somewhat offensive and even contemptuous when viewed in any way.
But Gu Ning is only two years older than Su Changan, Su Changan is nineteen this year, and Gu Ning is only one in twenty.
At such an age, even Wu Shisan, who is praised by the people of the world, has no such cultivation.
Gu Ning's talent is naturally second to none in Changmen, but if you look at the entire Great Wei, it is not worth mentioning. And he was able to soar all the way from the Nine Star Realm to the Question in just a few years. Even if he deliberately hidden, he still couldn't escape Su Changan's eyes.
There must be some reason why Su Changan doesn't know. And these reasons are likely to be the key to Gu Ning's appearance.
"......" Gu Ning heard this, his action of drinking tea paused at that time, but then put it down, and he also looked up at Su Changan, and the eyes of the two met at that time.
Gu Ning's eyes were full of smiles, and there was a hint of Su Changan's unreal city in his smile.
Su Changan's eyes were extremely serious and cold, just like the snow in the north.
"What does Brother Su mean by this? Isn't it just that you are cultivating and asking, and I, Gu Ning, are not worthy of the word "Ask?"
Just when the two were at a stalemate, Gu Ning suddenly withdrew his gaze, and with it was the smile on his face, he said this, with a chill in his voice that Su Changan had never heard in Gu Ning.
When Su Changan heard this, the expression on his face did not change even the slightest, and he still looked at Gu Ning deadly.
A murderous look slowly appeared in his eyes, and something seemed to start churning in the dimly lit room.
From the first time he saw Gu Ning today, he noticed something strange about Gu Ning's body, there was a certain aura on his body, even if he tried his best to hide it, that aura was already there.
The breath was extremely cold, which made Su Changan feel uncomfortable.
Even the aura emanating from the body of the hundred ghosts who had been resurrected in the Tianlan Courtyard back then was less than one percent of the cold aura of this aura.
He wasn't sure why Gu Ning had such a thing on his body, but he was sure that this aura was definitely not a good one, it was most likely some kind of evil skill, or some gods were playing behind it. Otherwise, it would not be possible to explain why Gu Ning had such a powerful cultivation.
No matter what, he had to take him down and interrogate him slowly.
Just when the momentum of the two collided and the saber rattling.
A soldier suddenly walked in the door, knelt down towards the two, and spoke.
"Tell my lord, Gu Xiaohou, Miss Su Mo asks to see you!"
