The Gu family's courtyard was full of people, and Tang Jiao had never seen such a big battle before.
Logically speaking, she shouldn't look at such a situation too much, but Tang Jiao just felt that Gu Qiye wouldn't care at all, and he wouldn't blame her even if he really found out.
She simply put both sets of legs down and swayed.
Although it looked a little scary to outsiders, she didn't think it was anything. Instead, she looked around fiercely.
"Why don't you go into the house?" Tang Jiao murmured to herself, feeling a little strange.
It looked like they were all standing in the yard, as if they were waiting for someone. Sure enough, after a while, a car drove in.
Although there were many people, there were only six or seven cars in the courtyard.
As the car came in, almost everyone moved to both sides. Tang Jiao couldn't see clearly. After thinking about it, she stood up.
She stood on the edge of the balcony, a light breeze blew by, and her red dress was flying. She seemed to be blessed. Gu Tingyun suddenly turned around, and their eyes met. Gu Tingyun saw the bright girl standing in the sun. , like a gorgeous scenery.
But just for a moment, he waved his hand.
Tang Jiao saw his movements and knew that he didn't want her to peek, so she jumped down with a pout, and then walked around the balcony holding a Buddhist scripture.
After a moment, I saw someone pushing the door open.
Tang Jiao turned around and saw her uncle sizing her up.
Tang Jiao immediately stepped forward with a smile: "Uncle, why are you here too?"
Shen Qing smiled: "I want to hear what the Buddha said to you."
Tang Jiao said seriously: "The old man asked me to hold Qi Ye's thigh tightly."
Who can let all the Hongmen lords greet him in the yard? Something related to Gu Tingyun
She lowered her head, then raised her head and smiled: "Uncle, let's go downstairs."
Tang Jiao walked to Shen Qing and heard him sigh helplessly. Tang Jiao let out a sigh and said, "You will get old easily if you sigh all the time."
Shen Qing said seriously: "Tang Jiao, if you don't scare me, I won't grow old."
The two of them walked downstairs together, and he said: "Gu Tingyun's identity and background are too complicated. You promise me not to have more involvement with him, okay? You are too curious, and it will kill you."
Tang Jiao burst out laughing and said softly, "You are overthinking."
She paused, looked up at Shen Qing, and said seriously, "He will never be the one who kills me."
He happened to be the one who saved me from trouble.
It's just that you can't say this.
Tang Jiao smiled. Turn around and go downstairs.
****
The hall of the Gu family was full of people. Gu Tingyun smiled helplessly and said calmly: "You guys are making too much fuss. It's just a trivial matter. Is it worth it for all of you to come here?"
Fourth Master Liu said with a loud voice: "What a trivial matter, is it a trivial matter to kill you? I don't know where the three-legged cat came from but dared to do such a thing. I think the little bastard is getting tired of living!"
He was very annoyed and the table banged.
Gu Tingyun smiled good-naturedly: "It didn't work out after all. I just don't know... who helped me secretly."
There was a moment of silence, it was not their people.
Fifth Master said: "Although this faceless person helped you, I don't think it may be a good thing. Who knows what An's intentions are?"
At this moment, Gu Tingyun could still pick up the teacup and take a sip. He lowered his eyes, then raised his head and smiled, with a faint expression on his face: "Perhaps I'm so good-looking that some people don't want me to die?"
As soon as he said this, Mr. Liu shouted again: "You little bastard, how long have you been saying such things? I see you..."
"Fourth." The old monk who had been twisting the beads finally spoke. He said: "Forget it, it's okay. Just let him handle this matter by himself. Anyway, he is still alive and well."
The old man who used to have the most irritable temper was rare and calm this time. These words really surprised everyone. Mr. Liu even suspected that their eldest brother was angry and had something to turn against.
"Brother..."
"Okay, listen to Big Brother. We will be tighter in manpower arrangements in the future, but Fifth Brother is right. Old Seventh, you should also investigate the person who saved you carefully. Where is the wooden warehouse opened? , opened a few wooden warehouses, it is not difficult to investigate." Mr. Liu is a bit younger, but his personality is calm. "Whether it's the one who kills you or the one who protects you, you can't relax."
Gu Tingyun was smiling, but his eyes were cold.
"knew."
He smiled and said, "It's my fault that everyone is alarmed. Why don't we have dinner together? The evening meal here is very good."
It's just that not everyone likes vegetarian food. Fourth Master Liu waved his hand and apologized: "I am a meat-loving person, so I can't eat vegetarian food."
For a while, several people declined. Gu Tingyun smiled: "Since you don't know how to appreciate it, then it's only me and my eldest brother left."
Boss Gu glared at him and asked, "What's the matter? Are you uncomfortable being with me?"
What he said... As expected, he was still the fiery-tempered Boss Gu.
When everyone saw that the old man was still the same, completely unchanged, they all found reasons and decisively withdrew in twos and threes.
Gu Tingyun stood at the door to see off the guests, and inadvertently looked at the Shen family's balcony again. The little girl was no longer there.
When he entered the room again, Gu Tingyun had already started to roll up his sleeves, but he said with a smile, "Brother, sit down for a while, I will cook myself."
Boss Gu twirled the Buddhist beads and exposed him: "Isn't it Su Zhai?"
Gu Tingyun paused and laughed: "With so many people, I can't do it alone, right? And in fact, I do eat vegetarian food at night."
There are other people who are not vegetarians.
Boss Gu sneered from between his teeth, and then said: "The wine and meat passed through the intestines, and the Buddha stayed in his heart. I am just here to give you a tooth sacrifice."
He said: "Bring me a chicken."
Gu Tingyun: "...Okay."
Seeing Gu Tingyun enter the kitchen, Boss Gu came to him, like a supervisor: "Who are you waving to when I arrive?"
He snorted again and said, "I only had time to see a corner of the red skirt, but I didn't see her face clearly."
Gu Tingyun's hand movements did not stop, but he explained: "A child has nothing to do with the people of Hongmen. I don't want her to be too curious and get involved, so as not to cause trouble in the future. The little girl's family, no So as to attract these things.”
He said it sincerely, but Boss Gu unexpectedly did not speak.
After a while, he saw that Gu Tingyun had already started cutting things, and said slowly: "It makes sense. However, you are different from us. And there is no Hongmen now."
Even so, Gu Tingyun was not moved at all. Instead, he did not stop his movements for a moment: "Without Hongmen, people will always be there. What does it mean that everyone is here today?"
He softened, laughed, and said, "Brother, I recently discovered that it is better to bake with some lemon juice."
Uncle Gu: "Then what do you say? Come directly!"
Seeing that Gu Tingyun didn't want to discuss this topic, he said, "Have you been caught?"
Although this kid said he hadn't been caught, he didn't believe it at all.
Gu Tingyun smiled: "Caught him, he was hit."
After a pause, Gu Tingyun's smile grew bigger. He looked at Uncle Gu and said, "I think he will be happy to talk to me."
The old monk clasped his hands together, said Amitabha, and said: "Leave a fine line in everything, no matter how tortured you are, it is better not to kill."
Gu Tingyun nodded: "If you don't kill any living thing, I will never do anything like murder or arson."
He looked up with a smile on his face: "I'm not that kind of person."
"Woof woof woof!" came the cry from the door, and Uncle Gu decisively gave up on Gu Tingyun, "My second girl misses me."
Take three steps and two steps at a time, then leave in a whoosh.
Gu Tingyun looked at his back, thinking about the position of Mucang among today's killers. He lowered his head, then raised his head and laughed. Not to mention anything else, he continued to move.
Uncle Gu was very happy with the meal, and finally packed up all the food and took it away. Everyone knew Gu Tingyun's craftsmanship, which was excellent.
Gu Si sent the person back in person. When he returned, he saw Master Qi sitting in the living room, gently caressing Gu Erniu.
"They were sent back?"
Gu Si: "Don't worry, Master Qi, I'll send you back safely."
Gu Tingyun's smile was much colder, and he said: "Such things will alarm big brother. I think they are becoming more and more out of tune."
He gently rubbed Gu Erniu and said, "Is Erniu right?"
"Woof woof woof!"
A dog's sincere reply,
Gu Tingyun smiled.
Gu Sidao: "The few masters are just looking for a reason to beat the uncle's teeth as a sacrifice. In fact, who doesn't know that the uncle can't give up drinking and meat at all? They just want to save face and act like a monk in front of them. In fact, You still have to steal food. Especially when you come here. This is a rare opportunity, why not improve your life?"
Everyone also saw that the old man was greedy and created opportunities for him.
Gu Tingyun raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "If it weren't for this, could I forget it?"
He stood up, dusted himself off, and said, "Okay, let's go and see our new guest."
He got up and went to the flower house in the courtyard. The flower house was in the backyard. Everyone knew that Gu Qiye loved flowers and would raise some flowers and plants in winter, but they didn't know that there was something special here.
Gu Si opened the door of the darkroom and led Gu Tingyun to the basement.
Although it is a basement, it is not as dark as expected, but very bright.
Gu Tingyun came to the dungeon calmly, and there was a man lying there covered in blood without even dealing with it.
Gu Tingyun looked at the imprisoned man and found a chair to sit on. He looked at the man quietly without saying anything.
This man was hit by a wooden warehouse and lost too much blood. He had already passed out.
Gu Si poured a bucket of water on it, and the man slowly opened his eyes.
Gu Tingyun looked at him with a smile, "I just want to ask you two questions, and then you can leave."
After a pause, he smiled again: "If you don't tell me... I guess you have heard that I don't kill living things. But there are always times when life is worse than death."
He lowered his head, twirling the beads in his hand, and smiled lightly, which was so clear and cold that it made people feel particularly eerie.
It's strange that a person's smile doesn't make people feel warm.
He said: "First question, who asked you to come?"
Seeing that the man didn't mean to say anything, Gu Tingyun continued to turn the beads in his hand: "You know what? If you dip a whip in pepper water and whip you, you will think that the wooden warehouse you hit is childish."
He smiled: "Second question, who opened the wooden warehouse and hit you?"
The man in black looked pale, even though he was angry, he still said: "I, I won't say..."
Gu Tingyun was not surprised by his words at all. He nodded, said yes, and then looked at Gu Si: "Give him a good greeting. I think no matter where he comes from, he should know that Shanghai Beach is not that easy to mess with."
He finally stopped turning the prayer beads and slowly walked upwards. Heart-rending screams came from the dungeon.
But Gu Tingyun didn't seem to hear it. He walked out of the dungeon. At this time, the sun was setting, and the sunlight was reflected on the glass flower house. Gu Tingyun walked out. The flowers in the yard were bright. He went back to the room to get scissors, and pruned the flower branches. .
The sunshine and rain have been great recently, and the flowers are very luxuriant.
Gu Qiye under the sunset is very serious, so serious that people can't take their eyes away. Gu Erniu lay aside, drowsy.
Not long after, Gu Si came to him and whispered: "Seventh Master, I've explained."
The author has something to say: Does this kind of Gu Qiye surprise you
