It was winter now, and the peach tree had lost all its leaves and was in a state of decay.
Gu Jiu stood beside the tree, flicked his finger, and sent a wisp of light blue sword intent in his body into the trunk of the peach tree.
At this moment, the peach tree that had lost all its leaves began to bloom at a speed visible to the naked eye, in full swing.
When the family saw this, they couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
Especially Gu Xing, his pimples were swelling and he let out an "Oh oh oh" sound.
Soon, more exaggerated scenes appeared.
The Yunshan Sword Sect's mountain protection formation was originally above the Gu family, but now it had sunk a lot. Looking from the courtyard, it looked like a transparent curtain like flowing water was torn down.
Soon, a wisp of sword intent descended and merged with the peach tree in the Gu family courtyard.
The peach blossoms were gorgeous, and after a tremor, the mountain protection formation returned to its height and disappeared from everyone's sight. In this short period of time, the mountain protection formation had become a part of the Gu family.
Gu Jiu created another sword formation within the Yunshan Sword Sect's mountain protection formation, which could be said to be a double insurance.
After doing all these things, Gu Jiu naturally had fewer worries.
Gu Jiu felt more at ease now that Qingliu Academy had the Yunshan Sword Sect as an ally.
In this northern land, the Nuyi Tower was afraid of him, the Baxueliu Pavilion also stopped its activities, and with the allies behind him, his plan was basically realized.
In the north, although there are still only three people in Qingliu Academy, it is no longer as thin as a piece of paper, and he is no longer a lone ranger.
Xiang Yu was forced to commit suicide at the Wujiang River, and he didn't want to repeat the same mistake.
People need to go with the flow. If there is no momentum, then create it yourself.
So far, he's doing pretty well.
On the same day that he formed an alliance with the Yunshan Sword Sect, a messenger arrived in the North.
This messenger naturally came from Galan City. After she came to the North, the first place she went to was Xueliu City.
Galan City, which had been silent for a long time, finally took action.
(PS: I’m asking for votes in the new week. I’ve been busy all day and still have to write. I want to cry. What makes me want to cry even more is that I have to rush around again tomorrow.
Recommending a friend's new book, "The Devil and the Food Must Die"
Chapter 17: The Human World
The messenger from Galan looked very ordinary, just a middle-aged woman wearing a coarse cloth shirt.
However, the identity of this middle-aged woman was not ordinary. She was Lu You, one of the imperial inspectors.
Lu You, who is now at the fifth level of the Divine Mind Realm, is naturally not considered to be very high in the south where people move mountains everywhere, but her status is not low.
Because she was the empress's confidant and the Lu family was indebted to the empress, her status naturally rose.
When she arrived at Baxue Liuge, she was naturally warmly welcomed by Baxue Liuge.
After this period of time, the building that was in ruins by Gu Jiu has been restored to its original state, majestic and magnificent.
Ba Xue Liu Ge set up the place to receive Lu You in Chunfeng Pavilion, which was the end of the sea of flowers. Because of the underground hot springs, the temperature was not low even in winter and was very comfortable.
There were not many people in the pavilion, only three people, namely Lu You, Liu Ruxu, the master of Baxueliu Pavilion, and the saint Liu Wan.
Since the battle with Gu Jiu, Liu Wan, who had been in seclusion for a long time, appeared in public sight more often, which also meant that her seclusion had ended.
At this time, Liu Wan was sitting aside, holding a snow-white green-eyed Persian cat in his arms.
To others, her pupils were somewhat similar to the cat's, with a dangerous beauty.
Liu Ruxu, on the other hand, looked much more serene. Sitting there in her lavender gauze dress, she seemed to be integrated into the picturesque scenery.
It is hard to imagine that the leader of Baxueliu Pavilion, the number one cultivation sect in the north, has a temperament that is not domineering at all.
The news that Lu You brought was very simple, that is, Gu Jiu was killed.
Liu Ruxu raised an eyebrow and asked, "Is this what His Majesty wants?"
Lu You did not answer the question directly, but said: "The Tang Kingdom does not need such a foolish saint, and the Northland does not need it either."
Liu Wan raised an eyebrow and said, "Is Gu Jiu so easy to kill?"
Lu You smiled and said, "Saint Liu, there's no need to worry too much. When the plan is implemented, the Imperial Master will take action, half of the Eight Directions Storm will take action, and with the addition of the two people in the pavilion, it will naturally be foolproof."
At this time, Liu Wan touched the cat's head in his arms and shook his head, saying, "You guys go if you want to go. I won't go. My butt still hurts, and I don't want it to hurt again."
As she said that, she carried the cat out of Chunfeng Pavilion.
In this gentle breeze, Liu Wan swayed her buttocks in a somewhat ecstatic way as she walked, like a weak willow swaying in the water.
This is because her butt is still hurting.
Lu You was speechless for a moment as he watched the female saint from the North twist her body as she walked out.
Now that the Empire is helping to solve the problems of your Baxue Liu Pavilion, you, the spokesperson of Baxue Liu Pavilion, are not interested, or are you afraid?
Do you really want to dominate Xueliu Pavilion and be suppressed by Gu Jiuwen?
On the contrary, Liu Ruxu, the leader of the pavilion, was much calmer.
She frowned and asked Lu You a crucial question: "No matter how strong Gu Jiu is, he can't withstand the combined attack of multiple saints. I have no doubt that he can't defeat us, but what I need to confirm is whether we can completely kill him."
Even if we exclude Liu Wan, the people Lu You just mentioned together are enough to make half the sky shake.
Facing six saints at the same time, Gu Jiu has no chance of winning, but six people are still six people. They can act together this time, but what about the future?
If we fail to save Gu Jiu's life this time, and he makes a comeback, and you all leave, how will Baxue Liuge resist his revenge?
Lu You smiled and said, "Pavilion Master, don't worry about this. The Imperial Master has already made arrangements. She will design a battlefield from which Gu Jiu cannot escape. When all the saints arrive, his life will naturally be in his pocket."
……
……
After setting up the formation at home, Gu Jiu was really about to leave.
This time when he returned home, he not only had a good New Year, but also accomplished something.
It is always a good thing to have one more grasshopper on the rope, especially when the Gu family has a complicated relationship with this grasshopper.
Gu Jiu is not afraid of offending people. He has offended Baxueliu Pavilion, Nuyi Tower, and Jing'e.
How many people in this world are more famous than these people?
But now Gu Jiu knows that he still needs allies, enough allies.
Human power has its limits. To completely change the customs of the North, or even the customs of the entire Tang Dynasty, is definitely not something that a few of them can accomplish.
He originally wanted to just live a life of idleness and wait for death, but the world obviously didn't want to give him such an opportunity.
It's because he dislikes too many people, and even dislikes the world a little.
Even if he closed his eyes, those things were still there, making him feel upset.
This world can be dark, but it cannot be so dark that the entire human race can only survive in a miserable state. Practitioners in this world can be selfish, but they cannot be selfish to this extent.
He could ignore the issue of women being superior to men, but treating his own kind as lambs and selling them to monsters as food had already crossed his bottom line.
As he grew older, Gu Jiu gradually understood the saying "the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility". Often when he woke up in the middle of the night, the words "I will not become a Buddha until hell is empty" would echo in his mind.
He knew that he had gone too far in his pursuit of sleep, and his heart was towards light, so he naturally wanted to make the world brighter.
If he insisted on living a life of idleness and waiting for death, he could naturally survive in this life and even let the people around him live well, but he really didn't want to see more tragedies happen again.
The appearance of the little girl from Sishui Village before her death is still vivid in my mind.
If we allow this world to continue to rot like this, will the subsequent tragedies happen in Linshui Town and Xinghua Town?
Some people in this world disappear on the road without a trace, so what happens next?
Will the whole world be reduced to desolation?
If the entire Tang Kingdom was as desolate as a dead land, and only a handful of practitioners were left surviving in the entire human race, how boring would this world be?
You want to play mahjong but no one comes; you want to eat braised meat but there is no shop; you want to feel the hustle and bustle and go to the market but find that the town is gone. What’s the point even if you can live forever?
Gu Jiu discovered very early on that he liked quietness because it was very comfortable to sleep and rest there, but at the same time he also liked hustle and bustle.
He felt very happy as long as he strolled on the street, had a meal, drank some tea, and listened to the storyteller brag about how he was so powerful.
He likes the hustle and bustle and the vitality, because he knows that the world with people is the real world.
A world without people is like hell to him.
Just as Gu Jiu was thinking about these rather macro issues, Gu Xing, who had always wanted to talk to him but had never opened his mouth, drank two sips of Gu Old Man's medicinal wine, slapped his forehead with a red face, and walked straight towards Gu Jiu.
Gu Jiu was about to leave and get married, so there were some things he had to say.
Chapter 18: Why can’t my sister do that?
Gu Xing was still at least two hundred steps away from Gu Jiu, but Gu Jiu smelled a familiar scent.
Dad still has tiger bone wine?
When he was in Linshui Town before, his waist was not in good condition. In order to avoid falling asleep while killing ghosts, he took a gourd of tiger bone wine from his father to refresh himself. The taste was so sour and refreshing.
He didn't expect to smell this scent again after such a long time.
When Gu Jiu turned around and saw that it was not Old Man Gu, but Gu Xing with red cheeks, he was a little confused for a moment.
When Gu Xing realized that Gu Jiu was looking at him, he was stunned for a moment, then shook his head violently and said, "Jiudi, come here, I have something to tell you."
Gu Jiu was also stunned when he found out that his brother suddenly spoke like this.
Judging from Gu Xing's tone and actions, he realized that what the other party was about to say was probably not simple.
If he hadn't known that Gu Xing had a normal sexual orientation, Gu Jiu would have thought that he was going to confess his feelings to him.
Yes, after drinking and mustering up courage, and on the eve of her wedding, it seemed like a plot from some TV dramas.
Finally, Gu Jiu followed Gu Xing to the canal outside the Gu Mansion.
The water in Yunji Town comes from the mountain spring of Yunshan Sword Sect and is very clear.
This mountain spring must have passed through a flower field, so from time to time brightly colored petals float by, which is very beautiful.
At this time, there were a few men washing clothes downstream of the canal, laughing and joking. The flower petals were swallowed up by the water flow caused by the clothes, and then floated up again, with a fresh scent of fireworks.
Such scenery is considered beautiful in Gu Xing's eyes, but it is a little uncomfortable in Gu Jiu's eyes.
Because in his worldview, it would be much more pleasing to see a few pretty women washing clothes by the ditch, rather than those men who chatted and added a few "You're bad!"
Gu Xing was still a little nervous when facing his younger brother Gu Jiu.
After all, Gu Jiu's identity and status are too high now, which is a world of difference from his.
Even though Gu Jiu is still quarreling with his family, the only one who is not nervous around Gu Jiu now is probably the genuine old man Gu.
After drinking some wine, Old Man Gu will fully interpret the phrase "your father is still your father".
Now Gu Xing had also drunk some wine, so he wanted to say something to Gu Jiu.
After realizing that Gu Jiu was waiting for him to speak, Gu Xing couldn't help but cough and said, "Xiaoxiao hasn't been home for two years. Do you miss her, Jiudi?"
After hearing this, Gu Jiu couldn't help but raise his brows slightly and replied, "Of course I do."
"What kind of thought?" Gu Xing asked.
Gu Jiu felt that there was something else behind the other person's words, so he wrinkled his nose and said, "Of course it's the way a brother misses his sister."
An emotion flashed across Gu Xing's eyes. He took another sip of wine and said, "Is there nothing else?"
Gu Jiu couldn't help but look at Gu Xing and frowned, "What do you mean, Brother Xing?"
Gu Xing seemed to be drunk at this moment, and said directly: "You like Xiaoxiao, right?"
When he said the word "like", he deliberately emphasized the tone.
Gu Jiu looked at the texture on his right palm and replied, "Yes, it's normal for a brother to like his sister."
Gu Xing said, "You know what I mean by liking you. When you were together a few years ago, I wasn't blind. Especially when you came back for the New Year two years ago, you and Xiaoxiao hugged each other, and did you think I didn't see it? Now that you have a senior sister and an aunt, have you forgotten Xiaoxiao's kindness?"
Gu Xing's cheeks were flushed and it seemed that he had a poor alcohol tolerance, so he was very brave at the moment.
Gu Jiu's expression remained calm as he replied, "Xiaoxiao is very nice, but she is my sister after all. I was young and ignorant at the time and had some unrealistic ideas, so naturally I was not sensible."
Gu Xing breathed out through his nostrils, looking angry, and said in a deep voice: "Aunt is OK, Senior Sister is OK, but Sister is not OK? It's not right to keep the good things for others."
