When Rui Butong came to Mo's house, he didn't come alone. Instead, he came with his two masters.
Compared with the previous few people, Rui Butong's arrival was the most important thing for the Mo family.
The first few people belonged to the family. Belonging to the family means... impossible to be pryed into corners. But Rui Butong's identity didn't even worry about prying the corner of the wall—he and his two masters were free men!
Does not belong to any family!
Such a person, with such strength, is the dream recruiting target of the big families in Zhongtian. Besides, even if you can't recruit people like the thief and ghost thief, if you have a good relationship... your family can also avoid a lot of inexplicable losses...
So for the arrival of Rui Butong's master and apprentice, the Mo family showed great enthusiasm.
Several elders and the head of the family came out to welcome them in person, giving enough face, and the host and guest had a good time.
But when they heard that Rui Butong was here to visit Mo Qingwu, Mo Xingchen and the elders lost their voices.
What's going on? Why are there so many of them one by one
Not only the Mo family was surprised, but even the two unreasonable masters, the thief and the thief, were also a little surprised: I have never seen this disciple pay attention to a certain girl? Why do you have to come to the Mo family to see their young lady this time
Could it be that Xiao Rui has taken a fancy to her girl
So the two old men came here with the intention of watching their apprentice's daughter-in-law. A large group of people went to Mo Qingwu's courtyard.
As soon as Mo Qingwu came out, Rui Butong jumped over with a smile on his face, and chatted with Mo Qingwu.
The most surprising thing was not the people of the Mo family, but the two big thieves who caused headaches for the whole three days!
The thief and the thief looked at each other, and they both saw that the other's nose was twisted in anger.
I thought she was a beautiful girl with a beautiful country, but I didn't expect it to be a little loli who hasn't even started to develop...
Looking at it like this, it is definitely not a relationship between a man and a woman... The two old men who were anxious to hold their grandson were gone.
Several elders of the Mo family sat on the side with the thief, watching Rui Butong talking to Mo Qingwu, Mo Qingwu felt uncomfortable, and dragged Rui Butong into the room.
Just when she stood up, Mo Qingwu's head trembled, the red glow flickered, and the stars twinkled.
Mo Wuxin was immediately shocked. Looking intently at the bow on Mo Qingwu's head, she was stunned.
Absolutely no mistake, this beautifully crafted bow is definitely made of Tongyun steel and Xingchen iron. It is the same material as that Xingmeng Qingwu Knife!
Even if a piece of Tongyun steel is cut off, it needs the full power of an emperor-level master; who can be extravagant enough to make Tongyun steel into a bow
Thin as a cicada's wing, light as nothing, so delicate, so ingenious...
Even a king-level master might not be able to do it, right
After Rui Butong's master and apprentice left, Mo Wuxin called Mo Qingwu over alone: "Xiao Wu, who gave you the bow on your head?"
"Brother Ji Mo gave it." Mo Qingwu blinked, but her voice was very cold.
"Nonsense!" Mo Wuxin was furious. Ji Mo? The Ji family? As a family of in-laws, who doesn't know how much the Ji family is worth
With the Ji family alone, can such a bow tie be made? What are you kidding
"It's really where Brother Ji Mo came to see me last time." Mo Qingwu argued. She kept an eye out: brother Ji Mo brought it, as for who gave it... I won't tell you!
"It seems that you don't want to tell the truth to the old man anymore?" Mo Wuxin said angrily.
"Really really is..."
"Hmph!" Mo Wuxin walked out with a flick of his sleeves. Forcing a little girl, in his capacity, he can't do that kind of thing. But this bow was definitely not given by Ji Mo!
Everyone in the Mo family can be sure of this!
If the Ji family really had such a master, it would have been three days already...
"Keep an eye on this courtyard, you don't need the young lady to go out at will! Do you understand? If anyone comes in, they must report to the family as soon as possible!" Mo Wuxin left an order and walked away.
Mo Qingwu bit her lip, stood in the yard, tears rolled in her eyes, but held back. Hmph, are you taking me as a prisoner
Brother Chu Yang, come and pick me up! Come pick me up... I really don't want to stay here any longer...
When Gu Duxing returned to the family, what he saw was the sad face of his adoptive father, Gu Yunlan. His adoptive father had black hair, but when he saw it today, half of it was already white, and the rest of it was also a little frosty white...
The middle-aged lost a son, and both of his own sons died together! For the head of the Gu family, this is definitely an unbearable blow in his life!
"Father! What's wrong with you?" Gu Duxing exclaimed.
"Oh... Duxing, you're back... just come back." Gu Yunlan took a long sigh, took Gu Duxing's arm, and said: "A few days ago, you ran away from home without saying a word, and the adoptive father was worried. I sent people out to look for it, but there has been no news of you. Where have you been?"
"A few days ago, I have been in Tieyun..." Gu Duxing said with hesitation while lowering his head.
"I know, I know...you feel uncomfortable, but..." Gu Yunlan looked at the trees on both sides with blank eyes, and said: "Your little sister's matter... is to harm the interests of the family, and the consequences are serious. Regarding this matter, you To understand... ”
"I understand! So I will definitely rush to the Sword Emperor as soon as possible! Save Miss Xiao Miao!" Gu Duxing said firmly.
"Sword Emperor!" Gu Yunlan's body shook, and he turned to look at Gu Duxing, and then carefully looked at his adopted son, who was also the adopted son he valued the most. Become a swordsman?"
What kind of cold sharpness is on Gu Duxing, like a long sword drawn from its sheath, lingering and screaming, no one seems to be able to stop his sharpness in front of him!
This is the unique characteristic of the swordsman.
"Yes foster father!" Gu Duxing said quietly.
"Then what rank are you in the Sword Sect now?" Gu Yunlan asked anxiously.
"It's not Jianzong anymore. Yifu." Gu Duxing said in a deep voice: "My child is now... the fourth rank of Sword Master, the pinnacle! Within half a month, I broke through to the fifth rank of Sword Master again!"
"Hiss..." Gu Yunlan took a deep breath.
It must have been less than a year since Gu Duxing left home!
When he left, was he only the fifth or sixth rank of Jianzong? It's just that in the past few months, it has been promoted by ten ranks
This... how is this possible
"You... how did you do it? Or... did you eat some kind of genius treasure?" Gu Yunlan asked. I'm afraid that's the only explanation. By coincidence, I ate some kind of heaven and earth spirit... Then after digesting the power of the medicine, I rushed to the peak...
However, this kind of thing has always only existed in legends, could it really happen to Gu Duxing
"I don't have any genius treasures. It's just that the boy met a strange person. Under his advice, he made rapid progress..." Gu Duxing said lightly.
"That's because of your hard work... However, raising the tenth rank in a few months is too unexpected." Gu Yunlan was amazed, looking at Gu Duxing, suddenly a bitter but gratified smile appeared on his face, Said: "God is sorry, God still hasn't destroyed my Gu family."
"Walking alone, the Gu family... I will rely on you to support me in the future." Gu Yunlan said sadly: "A few days ago, I just finished the funeral for the two of them..."
Gu Duxing hesitated for a long time, and finally said firmly: "Father... Actually... the deaths of Gu Yanyang and Gu Yanyue... I know about it."
"The deaths of Gu Yanyang and Gu Yanyue...you know..." Gu Yunlan seemed not to believe his ears, and repeated it subconsciously like a whisper, then turned his head suddenly, looking at Gu Duxing with falcon-like eyes: "You know of?"
"Yes!" Gu Duxing said solemnly.
"How to say?" Gu Yunlan's voice was already full of chills.
"I got the news shortly after the two of them were killed." Gu Duxing said with difficulty.
"You didn't kill it?" Gu Yunlan let out a sigh of relief: "It wasn't you who killed it, that's fine."
"Although I didn't kill them, it's the same as what I killed. The person who killed them is my brother!" Gu Duxing said in one breath: "The reason why he wants to kill them is also for me! Although this I didn't know about this matter beforehand, but... I don't want to lie to my adoptive father either."
"Your brother..." Gu Yunlan's voice was full of murderous intent: "When the bodies of the two of them returned, I was thinking that Xie Danqiong of the Xie family has always been calm. Although his reputation is not obvious, he is definitely a rising star. To kill Yan Yang and his brothers? Even if it's a love affair, it shouldn't be. It turns out that's the truth... "
"Who is your brother?" Gu Yunlan asked deeply.
"I can't say it." Gu Duxing looked conflicted but determined, and said: "As long as it is done by him, no matter what, it can be blamed on me. If the adoptive father is not angry, he can kill me. But I would rather die, And I will not betray my brother."
"Okay! What a loyal one." Gu Yunlan laughed coldly: "Gu Duxing, do you think... you have grown up, your wings have hardened, and Gu Yanyang and the others are dead, the Gu family can inherit the position of patriarch You are the only one left, so you can be confident?"
"Father's enlightenment, my son has never dared to think like this!" Gu Duxing originally lowered his head, but at this moment he raised his head and said boldly: "My son always believes that if you dare to act, you must dare to be a man! No matter what lies ahead! What, since you’ve done it, you won’t regret it! You have to bear it!”
"Everything can be said to others! Being open and upright is the direction of my sword practice. It is better to be straight than bent, which is the rule of conduct in this child's life! If I hide it now, the foster father may not know it for the rest of his life. Because the scene, and There is no evidence; even if it is Xie Danqiong, he will never find any evidence to get rid of the crime!"
"But I still want to speak out, just because I don't want to lie to you!" Gu Duxing said, "If I don't bear what my brother did, who will bear it?"
"So adoptive father, no matter what you do, you should do it! The child has absolutely no complaints! But as for betraying your brother, you would rather die than die!"
Gu Duxing's voice was sonorous and forceful, and his gaze was resolute.
