Gu Jiu said seriously, "You gave birth to Gu Ningshuang and Gu Xiaoxiao, so what's wrong with giving birth to a son who looks similar to them? Who says men are inferior to women? Who says men can't make a name for themselves!"

Gu Jiu's last words were so powerful that even his father, a man, couldn't help but clap his hands and shout "Good!"

Yes, men have been oppressed too much by women over the years.

But when he saw his wife's stern face, the hands that had just clapped twice suddenly deflated, and he quickly scratched his hair to ease the embarrassment.

Gu Xinyue looked at the chopsticks stuck on the table, frowned, and said, "Gu Jiu, you can leave if you want, but there is a condition."

"What conditions?"

Gu Xinyue took a sip of her soup and said seriously, "Since you think you're no worse than Xiaoxiao and Ningshuang, you must join a sect before you return home this year. If you don't succeed, then you'll have to get married. No matter how talented you are, you're still a man. In this world, strong men rarely have a good ending. Although I don't like boys, you're also my flesh and blood. As a mother, I still hope you can have a stable life."

After hearing these words, Gu Jiu was suddenly moved.

In his impression, Gu Xinyue is a very utilitarian mother and she really doesn't like boys.

He had received very little care from the other party since he was a child, and thought that he was just water waiting to be thrown away in the other party's eyes.

What I didn’t expect was that my mother still thought about me. Although it wasn’t much, it was a rare act of kindness.

Gu Jiu grinned and said with a smile: "Join a sect? No problem."

Gu Xinyue nodded and said, "Okay, you can go now."

After hearing the decision of the head of the family, Father Gu suddenly became anxious and said hurriedly: "How can this be possible?"

Gu Xinyue glanced at her husband coldly and said, "What else are you trying to do?"

Old Man Gu's hands trembled, and he immediately changed his mind. He said in a trembling voice, "I think we should at least prepare some money for Xiaojiu's journey."

Gu Xinyue snorted coldly and said, "You can handle this matter yourself. Anyway, you have nowhere to spend your private money."

"I!" Father Gu sighed, and finally held Gu Jiu's hand, saying: "My son, I don't know how powerful you are, but it's dangerous out there, and you can't be careless. Even if you want to leave, you can't leave like this."

Gu Jiu was a little confused and asked, "Then how should I go?"

"Wait a minute." As he said that, Old Man Gu ran into the house and took out several colorful gauze skirts and clothes, which scared Gu Jiu.

Father Gu stuffed these into Gu Jiu's hands and said earnestly, "How can a boy go out without women's clothes? When I was young, your father also wanted to go out and see the world and prepared these clothes, but in the end, I never made the trip. Now I give them to you."

"Ah?" Gu Jiu picked up a light blue gauze skirt and his eyes almost popped out.

(PS: 1. The cross-dressing plot will only appear in half a chapter. The author's values ​​are very consistent with the core socialist values. I am a little uncomfortable with the male protagonist dressing up as a woman.

2. The first volume is almost finished, and the next volume will be even more exciting. There will be another update today, so please vote for your support.

3. Since many readers have been asking about my old book, I'm going to insert an advertisement for it here: "Starting as a Lolita, All the Divine Equipment is Picked Up." This book still has about 140 words (maybe less) left to finish, and is currently approaching million words. Aside from the extra female lead, it shows no signs of falling apart. It probably wasn't a popular book on Shuke at the beginning, so its early performance was mediocre, but it did pick up quite a bit later, proving it's really not falling apart. Anyway, I missed a day of my old book yesterday. Shame on you, I'm back to writing.)

Chapter 1: Died peacefully

That afternoon, Gu Jiu left the house wearing a pink skirt, a white shirt and a pink blouse.

Unintentionally, he was forced by his old father to become a cross-dresser. Gu Jiu actually refused in his heart, but in order to reassure his old father, he finally put on women's clothes.

Gu Jiu was originally handsome, and after wearing women's clothes and having his father comb his hair into a lady's style, he could be considered a near-perfect beauty.

Seeing this, Gu Xing and Gu Lei swallowed their saliva.

Gu Jiu's two brothers were naturally very envious of Gu Jiu's decision to venture into the world, but after thinking about it, they were not that envious.

Yes, in this world, men are in charge of the home. It is not easy for a man to show up in public alone. People like Gu Jiu who can go out and travel the world are even rarer.

It's so dangerous outside. Not to mention the legendary ghosts and monsters, most men can't handle the fierce women. Gu Xing and Gu Lei think it's better for them to stay at home and be beautiful.

But after thinking about how Gu Jiu's beauty was hundreds of blocks ahead of theirs, the two of them couldn't help but feel even more depressed.

Before leaving, Gu Jiu told his father that if it was chaotic outside, he should not wander around and just help him take care of the peach tree. As an old otaku, Gu's father naturally agreed.

Walking on the street in women's clothes, Gu Jiu always felt weird and uncomfortable.

It was not until his entire family sent him out of town and he could no longer see them that Gu Jiu found a bamboo forest to change out of his women's clothes. He also ate the two oranges that his old father had hung on his chest.

After changing back into men's clothes, Gu Jiu felt refreshed and discovered that he really did not have the hidden attributes of a cross-dressing man.

But after all this trouble, he suddenly felt very tired and wanted to find a place to sleep.

When he wanted to touch the rattan chair, he found that he was no longer at home and there was no rattan chair there.

Gu Jiu couldn't help but sigh: "Traveling in the martial arts world is really tiring!"

In fact, he was now less than two miles away from the town.

Although his body still had plenty of energy, Gu Jiu's laziness took over and directly controlled his mind.

After looking at the map, Gu Jiu found that the next destination was at least ten miles away, and he couldn't help but sit down on the ground.

The road was too long, and he lost interest in moving forward.

At this time, Gu Jiu even wanted to go home and sleep for another night before setting off again tomorrow.

After finally getting the chance to go out for a walk, the lazy Gu Jiu couldn't even hold on for half an hour, like a deflated ball.

Why was walking such a hassle? Why didn't I hire a carriage?

Linshui Town is a remote place. There are not many horses, let alone carriages. Even the Gu family, which is considered a wealthy family in the town, only has one carriage. Naturally, his family would not give it to him easily.

As the world became increasingly chaotic, not many people went out of the town, and naturally there were no stables specifically for renting horses.

Going out depends entirely on walking, which is a completely routine operation in this world, but Gu Jiu is not used to it.

Gu Jiu wiped the sweat from his forehead and really wanted to lie down.

If he wasn't really good-looking and his clothes weren't clean as new, given his current posture, most people would probably think he was a beggar on the street.

Of course, a beggar with his looks would be raped countless times by female hooligans in this world.

At this moment, Gu Jiu suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves.

I saw two yellow horses pulling a cart coming towards me. There were two coffins on the wooden cart behind the yellow horses, which was quite eye-catching.

If you insist on saying what the specialty of Linshui Town is, almost all locals will say it is the coffins of the Li family at the head of the town.

Yes, the Li family’s coffin shop is a century-old store. It is said that this store existed when this town was still a village.

Aunt Li's skill in making coffins was passed down from her ancestors. Both the wood and the workmanship are very particular and extremely delicate, so much so that many wealthy families in Yanyang City come here to order coffins.

Just now, a wealthy old lady in Yanyang City was terminally ill and the doctor clearly stated that there was no hope of recovery.

The old woman was still quite lucid. Thinking that she was going to die, she told her children that she must have a coffin from the Li family in Linshui Town, and she wanted two at a time, saying that she would use one when her husband passed away.

So Li Mei, the eldest daughter of Aunt Li, and Li Luo, the second daughter, came out to transport the coffin this time. Because the nanmu coffin was quite heavy, and the store needed to go to Yanyang City to purchase some things, the two also found two good sisters to go with them - the twin sisters of the Zhao family.

The four women were of similar age, only in their twenties, and knew each other well, so they were laughing and joking all the way and were not restrained at all.

They were wearing long chiffon dresses and were dressed up beautifully. They looked very happy. If there was no coffin on the car, people would probably think they were out for a picnic.

When the four of them saw Gu Jiu sitting on the side of the road, Li Mei, who knew Gu Jiu, couldn't help but ask in surprise, "Mr. Gu, why are you sitting here?"

When Gu Jiu saw Li Mei, he felt that she looked familiar, so he replied, "I was planning to go to Yanyang City, but I can't walk anymore."

"..."

"..."

The four women were speechless for a moment, thinking, "Didn't we just leave town?"

However, they had heard about Gu Jiu's laziness, so Li Mei said, "It's not safe for a boy like you to be out there alone. We're going to Yanyang too. Why don't you come with us?"

Although the other three women pretended to be calm on the surface, they were already furious inside.

They had been coveting this young master of the Gu family for a long time, and now they had the opportunity to travel together, so hehehe...

When Gu Jiu heard that there was a ride available, he immediately nodded and said, "That would be great."

After hearing Gu Jiu's straightforward agreement, the Zhao sisters were so excited that they clasped their hands together.

Although the Gu family is not easy to deal with, it doesn't mean that they can't have any problems with Gu Jiu.

There are four women and one man along the way. If Gu Jiu is afraid of the dark or something, they will take advantage of him.

Gu Jiu bowed to the four girls and said, "Thank you four ladies for taking me in."

He was good-looking to begin with, and at this moment he showed a faint smile, so much so that the four women felt as if their love blossomed.

Then their love froze in the next moment.

Gu Jiu simply pushed the lid of a coffin open a little and then lay down in it.

Such a scene is really hard to understand, and even has a bit of a weird atmosphere.

Gu Jiu lay in the coffin and felt really comfortable.

Is there anything more comfortable than lying down?

At this time, Gu Jiu saw Li Mei's pale face and asked, "Sister Xiaomei, will my lying here affect your business?"

Li Mei coughed and said awkwardly, "No, just come out when you enter the city."

Who would have thought that Gu Jiu, who was said to be so lazy that he cried, could really be this lazy.

After hearing that it was okay to lie inside, Gu Jiu closed his eyes.

So in the eyes of Li Mei and the other three, he seemed to have passed away very peacefully.

It's really peaceful.

Chapter 2 Road

Gu Jiu lay in the coffin and soon fell asleep.

He was so tired.

The Li family's coffin is really well made, with a flat and smooth bottom, and it is really comfortable to lie in it.

Gu Jiu sighed before going to bed, no wonder the Li family's coffins were so expensive, there must be a reason for their high price.

But he didn't take into account that the dead cannot feel whether the coffin is comfortable or not.

The four young ladies who originally wanted to tease Gu Jiu couldn't help feeling depressed when they found out that Gu Jiu was actually sleeping in the coffin.

But these four women were naturally optimistic, and soon they continued to laugh and giggle, so that the whole journey was filled with a cheerful atmosphere again.

Li Mei and the other three women were different from the ordinary people in Linshui Town who never left their homes. Since the Li family's coffins were very popular, she was very familiar with the road to Yanyang City.

But no one expected that the dirt road that she remembered to be in good condition now had many potholes, so the car couldn't help but shake up and down.

What left the four speechless was that even with such a bumpy ride, Gu Jiu was still sleeping soundly, with no signs of waking up at all.

In fact, Gu Jiu's sleeping appearance is also quite pleasing to the eye, but unfortunately he is lying in a coffin. Even though the Li family is in the business of the dead, the four of them are still not used to this style of painting.

At this moment, there was a clang, and the wooden cart pulled by the yellow horse tilted to one side. The right wheel slipped into a deep pit and even broke the wheel.

There was green grass growing on the pit, so it was quite hidden. Li Mei didn't pay attention to it for a while. Only after she fell down did she realize how deep the pit was.

Seeing this, Li Mei couldn't help but whip the two yellow horses a few times, but even though the two yellow horses neighed and the reins were stretched straight, they still couldn't pull the cart out of the pit.

At this time, Gu Jiu's face was pressed against the wall of the coffin because of the tilt of the wooden cart, but he still did not wake up.

The four women drove the horses and pushed the cart at the same time, but failed after several attempts.

The nanmu coffin was too heavy, so Li Mei suggested unloading it first.

After the four women's fierce operation, the car finally got out of the pit, but Gu Jiu was lying in the coffin, changing his sleeping position several times passively, but he did not wake up.

Li Mei and his companions were extremely exhausted. Fortunately, although the right wheel was cracked, the car could still move forward.

When they got back on the road, they had to be more careful about the potholes on the road.

The second sister, Li Luo, was going to Yanyang City for the third time and couldn't help asking, "Sister, I remember the road wasn't this difficult last time?"

Li Mei nodded and said, "This road looks like someone deliberately destroyed it. It's really strange."

Although this road has no village in front and no shop behind, it is still a main road. I don't know what happened, but there are so many potholes on it.

Under such circumstances, the group's pace naturally slowed down a lot, and the atmosphere became less relaxed than before.

If Gu Jiu hadn't uttered a few words in his sleep along the way, Li Luo and the others would have even thought that this guy had fainted from the shaking in the coffin.

Before I knew it, it was already dusk.

Li Luo was a little worried and said, "Sister, I don't think we can reach Niujia Village before dark, right?"

Li Meixiu frowned slightly and said seriously, "Even if we can't make it in time, we have to hurry."
