The sect is full of evildoers, but I am the eldest brother.
Chapter 44: Word of Mouth That Can't Be Convinced
Seeing Gu Junming talking nonsense seriously, the two women fell into silence for a long time.
The hair was messy like a chicken coop and long like a hedgehog.
Is he handsome? Well, maybe the aesthetic taste of the people in the Central Plains is different from that of the Eastern Divine Region.
But you don’t have to keep the same posture all the time. Do you do the same when you eat at home?
Holding your forehead to look up at the sky, showing your nostrils to others?
A series of questions arose in the minds of the two envoys sent by the Baihua Palace to Liuyun Township for permanent investigation.
Baihua Palace is also one of the forces in the Zhengmeng.
This time, the evil cultivators appeared and caused trouble in their territory, although they did not cause any substantial damage.
But if you do nothing, it will not only ruin your reputation, but also discourage your own people.
Therefore, Baihua Palace arranged for Si Wenjun and Xu Miaoer to go to Liuyun Township to take charge.
On the one hand, it was just a pretense to deal with those old-fashioned guys in Zhengmeng.
On the other hand, they are looking for talents and selecting several potential disciples to enter the inner sect for training, so as to replenish fresh blood in time to prepare for future needs.
Ta-da, ta-da, ta-da...
As the horse galloped, a large cloud of dust was raised.
The overall speed of the vehicle was not slow, and it overtook wave after wave of people in front.
But the environment inside the car was extremely comfortable, without any signs of bumps.
"This is the precious chariot we specially asked Bailian Pavilion to build for us."
As if seeing the doubt in Gu Junming's heart, Si Wenjun, who was sitting opposite him, explained with a smile:
"Manpower is limited, and unexpected situations are inevitable when traveling long distances."
"In order to protect ourselves and conserve our energy, we have chosen to reduce some labor costs."
"Using a carriage is both safe and secure when there is no urgency."
Gu Junming looked at the layout of the carriage and said thoughtfully, "This thing should be very expensive, right?"
In the end, Gu Junming still got on the carriage with Si Wenjun, and he didn't even pretend.
Not only did he show his true face to others, he also used a normal tone to communicate with Si Wenjun.
As for the reason, it’s nothing more than a gamble!
It's been so long.
Gu Junming didn't believe that the other party still remembered it! Besides, Gu Junming had also seen the portrait on the wanted list. He personally supervised the painting of the Baihua Palace goddess Song Zhitao.
The drawing is so crooked and doesn't look like him at all.
"Baihua Palace and Bailian Pavilion have always been on good terms, and they refine it for free."
"Impossible. In terms of stinginess, no one can match Bailian Pavilion."
Gu Junming sneered. At first, he just wanted to find the weapon-making master of Bailian Pavilion to make a set of knee pads for him.
The other party asked for an exorbitant price, starting with five hundred spirit stones, which was equivalent to fifty thousand gold treasures.
Fifty thousand gold treasures.
There was so much money that even a carriage couldn't hold it all! This was even when Gu Junming brought his own materials.
He could have just gone and snatched it, but he still held up five fingers with a playful smile.
They negotiate with you nicely about discounts on VIP invitations, in order to humiliate you.
Anyway, Gu Junming had never seen it before, and after getting the golden invitation, he still had to pay ten spirit stones as a referral fee.
"It seems that Old Gong has a deep prejudice against Bailian Pavilion."
"Well...I've been cheated before."
Si Wenjun smiled and was not surprised by this.
She just said that Bailian Pavilion made the treasure chariot for Baihua Palace free of charge, but she didn't say that Bailian Pavilion was not stingy.
On the contrary, Si Wenjun had also been cheated out of thousands of spirit stones by those so-called weapon-refining masters.
But although he has a bad heart, his craftsmanship is unique.
This is also the reason why everyone knows that Bailian Pavilion likes to take bribes, but there is always a constant stream of customers coming to the store.
The reputation is there, you have to accept it even if you don’t want to!
"It is indeed free refining."
"But in exchange, we will give a small number of spots for the Flower Bed Forum to Bailian Pavilion every year to maintain friendly exchanges between the two sects."
Si Wenjun had been traveling for several days in a row and spent most of the day in the carriage.
It's really boring.
It's rare to have someone to talk to her nowadays, which does ease her loneliness a little.
And through conversation, Si Wenjun discovered.
"Old Gong" is not as simple as he looks. Although he is indeed growing up a little fast at the age of eighteen, his horizons are extremely broad.
I know a little bit about everything.
Sometimes "Old Gong" would say things beyond Si Wenjun's knowledge, which made her feel emotional:
"I'm really old. I'm actually not as good as a young man who just turned eighteen."
That's exactly the case.
Only then did Si Wenjun open up and explain to Gu Junming the interests between the two major sects.
However, even after slowly driving into the final destination, Liuyun Township, Si Wenjun still felt a little unsatisfied.
Perhaps, this is also related to the fact that she and Gu Junming have only been together for less than an incense stick of time.
"Senior Sister, Lao Gong, we're here."
Xu Miaoer lifted the bead curtain and reminded the two of them.
Gu Junming took advantage of the gap in the corner to take a peek at the scenery outside.
He couldn't help but frown slightly.
Judging from the buildings on both sides of the street, he deduced that the carriage was currently parked on Luohua Street. If he guessed correctly, it was in front of the gate of Zuiyuexuan.
This is not a good thing.
If the madam saw him later, she might come up to him and call him "Mr. Gu".
It would be a bit ungrateful to use the excuse of having the same name and surname to cover it up at that time.
Gu Junming roughly sensed it.
Zuiyuexuan usually becomes lively at night, but there are few people here right now, so we have to leave immediately!
"Old Gong, have you eaten yet? Why don't you join us..."
"We're finally here, thank you both!"
Gu Junming interrupted Xu Miaoer before she could finish her words.
He pretended to be calm and lifted the bead curtain, jumped out of the carriage, and took a deep breath of the fresh air.
He turned around and chuckled, "I have something to do over there. See you next time. I'll treat you two to dinner!"
strictly speaking.
Liuyun Township is not located in a remote area. It has convenient transportation and pleasant scenery, making it a suitable place for sightseeing.
Therefore, there is never a shortage of luxurious and noble carriages.
However, the flag inserted into this chariot was also printed with the "Hundred Flowers Palace's unique pattern of "a hundred flowers in full bloom".
Passersby were talking about the man who got off the chariot from the Baihua Palace.
Who exactly is this person?
In the face of pressure, the highly-watched Gu Junming remained calm and composed, smiling at everyone.
"Leaving now?"
Xu Miaoer felt a little reluctant to leave. It was the first time in her life that she had seen people from the Central Plains.
She has never been to the prosperous Central Plains.
She also wanted "Old Gong" to share with her what interesting things there are in the Central Plains.
Unexpectedly, I was so busy overtaking that I missed a good opportunity to learn about the prosperous Central Plains.
"It's still early. If you're not in a hurry, Old Gong, why don't you come in with us and take a rest?"
Si Wenjun also tried to persuade him to stay.
She had indeed not enjoyed the conversation very much, and she still had many half-understood confusions that she wanted to seek advice from "Old Gong".
People have not left yet, so you should not miss it.
