A family of three travels through time together, and the golden finger is turned on
Chapter 321: Wucheng
"The best perfection in the world is to run towards each other in both directions. Our Yan'er has grown up too." Ji Xiaoju gently wiped away the tears on her face.
"They have such skillful hands. This patchwork quilt is so beautiful." Gu Yan stroked the quilt. Although it was obviously very rough, she felt that it was the most beautiful clothes in the world.
On the city wall, Guan Yunbai watched this scene.
"Son."
"Has everything been arranged in Wucheng?" Guan Yunbai asked.
"Yes, they really did go to Wucheng as you wished."
"Gu Can is still so naive, thinking that she is the smartest, most righteous and most amazing in the world. Her smile is really annoying." Guan Yunbai stretched out his hand and broke the neck of the servant behind him, then wiped his hands with a white handkerchief and threw him off the city wall.
"Stop." Ji Xiaoju suddenly shouted.
"What's wrong?" Gu Liang quickly stopped the carriage and asked.
"I forgot something at the county government office." Ji Xiaoju returned.
"Then let's go back quickly." Gu Yan said immediately.
"No, you guys go to Wucheng first. Your father and I will come later. Otherwise, if the people find out, there will be another commotion." Ji Xiaoju shook her head.
"Okay, Yuanjing, please drive the carriage and give us the horses." Gu Liang turned around and said to Xiao Yuanjing.
"Okay." Xiao Yuanjing took his bag off the horse and put it on the carriage.
Gu Liang and Ji Xiaoju led their horses and quietly returned to Tonghua Town.
"How about I wait for daddy and the others?" Gu Yan said.
"Why did you leave your father and mother? Are you afraid that I will sell you?" Gu Can joked.
"How could that be? I just thought we didn't walk very far."
"Let them enjoy their own world together. Besides, the matter of the Abyss is more important." Gu Can said.
"That's right." Gu Yan said nothing more. Xiao Yuanjing's driving skills were pretty good, and the carriage wasn't bumpy at all. Of course, even if he wasn't so skilled, the carriage wouldn't be bumpy either.
"Cancan, do you really think Wucheng will be the target of the Abyss?" Gu Yan asked.
"According to the intelligence we collected before, the power of the Abyss has been expanding, and Wucheng, as a transportation fortress, has a superior geographical location and is a strategic location that they cannot ignore." Gu Can explained seriously.
"Then what should we do after we arrive in Wucheng?" Gu Yan continued to ask.
"The enemy is in the dark and we are in the light. Now we can only go to Wucheng first and make plans." Gu Can replied.
"I don't know when Guan Yunbai will arrive. With him here, we can easily get the support of the government." Gu Yan said. "You don't hate him anymore?" Gu Can smiled.
"He doesn't seem that bad, and his identity can indeed bring a lot of convenience." Gu Yan said righteously.
"Well, don't worry, it will be quick." Gu Can was very confident.
As the carriage continued to move forward, the outline of Wucheng gradually became clearer. As the carriage slowly entered the bustling streets of Wucheng, the cries of vendors and the laughter of pedestrians on both sides intertwined into a vivid market scene.
They found an inn and settled down.
"I'm so hungry. I heard that the food in Wucheng is also well-known. Let's go eat." As soon as Gu Yan finished packing, she couldn't wait to satisfy her stomach.
"Yeah, I'm a little hungry." Gu Can agreed happily. The two were about to call Xiao Yuanjing when Xiao Yuanjing opened the door and came out.
"That's great, let's go eat." Gu Yan said happily.
"Okay, I've heard of Huixinglou in Wucheng before, so it's a good opportunity to try it." Xiao Yuanjing said.
"Wow, that's great! I was just wondering where to eat." When Gu Yan heard this, she didn't have to worry about it anymore.
The three of them went to Huixing Tower together.
"What's going on?" Gu Yan didn't understand.
There was a large seal on the gate of Huixing Building, and spider webs were hanging on the doorplate.
"Hey, young man, can you tell me something about this Huixing Building?" Gu Yan stopped the passerby and was about to ask.
"Don't ask me, I don't know." The young man quickly broke free and ran away.
Gu Yan wanted to ask other people.
"Don't ask anymore, let's leave here first." Gu Can grabbed Gu Yan.
The three of them left in a hurry again, returned to the inn, and ordered a few dishes at random.
"Cancan, what happened just now? Why didn't you let me ask?" Gu Yan asked.
"Everyone who passed by Huixing Tower looked panicked and walked in a hurry. I guess the matter of Huixing Tower must have made people avoid it and keep it secret. They would not answer." Gu Can said.
"What should we do? Could it be related to the Abyss?" Gu Yan said in a low voice.
"I really feel uncomfortable outside Huixing Building. It seems we can't get a good rest tonight." Gu Can said.
"You guys take a rest, I'll go and find out." Xiao Yuanjing said.
"No, this is too dangerous." Gu Yan immediately retorted.
"We can't all go. The situation is unclear now. The enemy is in the dark and we are in the light. If we all go, what if we are caught in one fell swoop? So we can't all go." Xiao Yuanjing said.
"Then let's wait until we know what the situation is before going." Gu Yan said.
"Stop arguing, I'll go." Gu Can said.
"No."
"Listen to me, we will all go, but you will meet me outside Huixing Building. Today we are just here to find out the situation. No matter what happens, I will not act rashly." Gu Can said.
"Okay then." Xiao Yuanjing and Gu Yan could only agree. After all, they couldn't stop Gu Can.
After the meal, the three of them returned to their room to rest and recharge their batteries.
At the end of the hour of Xu, the streets were deserted. The three of them changed into simple clothes, left the inn, and arrived outside Huixing Tower.
"You just wait here. If I don't come out in an hour, you go back to the inn and wait for Guan Yunbai to come. He can mobilize the files. Don't put yourself in danger easily." Gu Can reminded the two again.
"You are the one who must come out on time." Gu Yan said.
Gu Can nodded and sneaked into Huixing Tower. After leaving their sight, Gu Can cast the invisibility spell and the breath-holding spell. He walked through the gate of Huixing Tower quietly and found himself in a dark corridor.
She walked forward cautiously, trying not to make any noise. At the end of the corridor was a half-open door, letting in a faint light. Gu Can held her breath and slowly pushed the door open, revealing a spacious hall.
In the center of the hall stood a large table, strewn with documents and maps. Gu Can approached the table and carefully examined the documents. Suddenly, he heard light footsteps and quickly hid under the table.
A man in black walked into the hall, looked around, and then walked to the table and began to rummage through the documents. Then the man in black left.
Gu Can left the documents alone. He wandered around the room, finally turning the candlestick on the table. The bookshelf opened, revealing a secret passage behind it. This passage led downwards and felt quite deep. After walking for a while, Gu Can heard the sound of dripping water.
As they walked deeper and deeper, Gu Can's brows furrowed even deeper. Such a thing was actually happening in the underground of Huixing Tower. She was so angry that she wanted to destroy the place immediately.
Gu Can walked all the way while enduring the nausea, and finally left quietly.
"Can (Let's go.)" Gu Yan and Xiao Yuanjing saw Gu Can coming out and immediately went to greet him. Gu Can took the two of them away and returned to the inn. Gu Can was in a bad mood.
"Cancan, what happened? You look really bad." Gu Yan poured a cup of tea for Gu Can worriedly.
Gu Can took the tea, feeling uneasy. No matter how much she had been through, she still couldn't accept it when she saw it again.
"Those girls can't be saved." Gu Can's tears instantly fell. Thinking back to the scenes she saw, she felt really uncomfortable.
"Cancan, didn't you say that we should just do what we can? Bad guys are always around. We can't change the past. What we can do is to prevent tragedies from happening in the future." Gu Yan had never seen Gu Can cry before, and she hugged her to comfort her with heartache.
