Chapter 12: Heartbeat
"Zhu Guo. ”
A cry of surprise rang out again, and everyone's eyes even reddened slightly.
Zhu Guo, this is also a legendary high-end spiritual object, although its value is not as good as gold and silver leaf, but it is also extremely rare. For a while, everyone looked at Rong Kaixuan and the three of them with a hint of awe in their eyes.
The people who can carry such treasures with them are ordinary people.
Gu Tianci's face changed greatly, and he secretly wondered in his heart, could it be that he had lost his eyes, this person was not a child of a small family, but a real gentleman from a big family.
However, even if he wanted to break his scalp, he couldn't think of any family surnamed Meng with this background.
The down-and-out man's eyes lit up, he took a deep breath, the fragrance that filled the air made people feel refreshed, and he immediately said, "Okay, as long as you add a little more spirit coin, I will sell it to you." ”
Rong Kaixuan nodded proudly and said, "Give him 10,000 second-order spirit coins." ”
"Yes. ”
Zhang Gongshan replied quietly, and took out another cloth bag like a loyal housekeeper.
He stepped forward and handed over the brocade box and cloth bag in his hand.
The down-and-out man took it and looked at it, took it with a smile on his face, and handed over the box containing the gold and silver leaf. He clenched his fists and saluted, "Thank you for the grace of your son's life, and I will leave." With that, he immediately turned around and departed as if fleeing for his life.
Gu Tianci's heart moved, and he secretly glanced at a person. The man understood and was about to depart.
However, Rong Kaixuan suddenly said, "Gu Shopkeeper, what are you going to do?"
Gu Tianci was stunned and said, "What?"
Rong Kaixuan pointed to the person who wanted to chase him out, and said loudly: "You let him out, do you plan to follow that person, and by the way, eat black and snatch things over." ”
Gu Tianci's face sank. "Nonsense. ”
Although he did have this thought in his heart, he couldn't admit it at this time.
Although murder and treasure snatching happen every day, these people who open shops must not fall into this kind of scandal, otherwise, the entire Gu family will suffer huge losses because of this.
Rong Kaixuan smiled and said, "Okay, since you don't have this plan, let him stay here for the time being." ”
Gu Tianci snorted angrily and said, "Master Meng, the gold and silver leaves and Zhu Guo are both rare treasures, since they appear here. It's not too much for me to let people go through. ”
After Rong Kaixuan took out Zhu Guo, his mentality had changed dramatically.
At least, he didn't want to have any inexplicable conflict with him until he got to the bottom of the little guy.
Rong Kaixuan smiled and said, "It's really not too much, but for the sake of everyone's reputation, I think it's better to stay for the time being." ”
Everyone in the hall looked at each other, although there were many people who had the same thoughts, but at this moment they could only fade down.
Rong Triumph took the box. Gently opened, the strange gold and silver swayed slightly, making people's hearts shake. With excitement on his face, he said to himself, "Good thing." It's really a good thing, with the help of this thing, I will definitely be able to advance to the innate level. ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone's faces suddenly became extremely strange.
Gold and silver leaves. This is gold and silver leaf. It's a treasure that can be used even when a grandmaster is promoted.
Generally speaking, this item is given to the peak innate to take, so that they have a greater chance of being promoted to the grandmaster realm. As for taking it for a master-level cultivator......
They are well-informed though. But I've never heard of anything so tyrannical.
"Ahem. Gu Tianci coughed lightly and said, "Brother Meng, in fact, although it is difficult to be promoted from the division level, there are not many elixirs that can have an effect. He paused and said, "We can provide you with three, and we can guarantee that your chances of promotion are more than forty percent." ”
Rong Kaixuan rolled his eyes and said, "Forty percent, hum, if it is gold and silver leaves, how many percent of this may be?"
Gu Tianci was stunned for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "There is no precedent for this matter, and I can't say it." ”
Indeed, once a treasure like the gold and silver leaf appears, it will definitely be monopolized by the grandmaster-level, at least by the innate powerhouse, and it is too late for them to treasure it, so how can it be wasted on the body of the master-level cultivator.
Rong Kaixuan snorted lightly, waved his sleeves, and said: "I appreciate the kindness of the ancient shopkeeper, but the gold and silver leaves are of greater use to me." He tilted his head and said, "That man should go away." ”
Zhang Gongshan hurriedly said: "Childe, you should go far." ”
Rong Kaixuan nodded and said, "Okay, we have a good harvest from this trip, let's go." With a wave of his sleeves, he turned around and swaggered away, leaving a bunch of people in the hall staring at each other, with a lot of thoughts in their hearts.
After the three of them returned to the inn, they did not stop, but immediately took out the carriage, whipped away on the spot, and left Gujiazhuang as fast as possible.
And just a moment later, the whole story of this matter has been passed on to the Gu family boss.
Now the one who holds the position of the head of the Gu family is Gu Yiyu, who has long been at the peak of innate cultivation, and he is also the lineage of one of the two elders of the Gu family.
It is precisely because of the support of this old man and his hard work that he has the status he has today.
However, after he was promoted to the peak of the innate level, his cultivation has always stagnated, and he can't cross the threshold of the grandmaster no matter what.
For decades, he had become disheartened and had completely lost his enterprising spirit.
However, at this time, he was holding a report in his hand, but he was trembling with excitement.
Gold and silver leaves, such treasures of heaven and earth, and even treasures that have the opportunity to help him become a grandmaster, will appear in Gujiazhuang. Although the person who got this treasure had already left Gujiazhuang at this time, he believed that as long as the family was willing to come forward, he would definitely be able to catch up.
Just hesitated, he immediately issued an order to block the news, and then his body moved slightly, and he took a big stride into a secret place in the backyard of Gujiazhuang.
This is the forbidden area of the entire Gujiazhuang, except for the two elders of the Gu family and him, only a few people have the qualifications to enter.
Hurrying to the outside of a house, he stood with his hands tied, and said, "The boy asks to see his father." ”
The door slowly opened, and an indifferent voice sounded: "Come in." ”
"Yes. Gu Yiyu walked in quickly. At this point, he didn't want to waste even a second of his time.
The space in the room is not very large, but it is extremely extravagant, an old man with white hair raised his head, took his eyes away from the expensive flowers and plants in front of him, looked at Gu Yiyu coldly, and said: "How can your heart still be so chaotic, hey, for so many years, you can't control your heart." How could it be possible to advance to the Grandmaster. ”
This person is Gu Yiyu's biological father Gu Donglai, he is one of the two grandmasters of the Gu family, and he is also the pillar of the Gu family's ability to become one of the inheritance families in Donghua County.
Gu Yiyu lowered his head, looked humbly taught, and said, "Father, the child knows that he is wrong. ”
Gu Donglai snorted lightly and said, "What's the matter, just say it." ”
"Father, the child has found something. If you can get this thing, the child is sure that he will be able to advance to the grandmaster. Gu Yiyu suddenly raised his head, his eyes were full of scorching light.
Gu Donglai was stunned, and he looked at his son in surprise. "What did you find?"
Although there are treasures that can assist the innate peak advanced grandmasters, each of them is rare in the world, and even with the heritage of the ancient family, there is no inventory.
Gu Yiyu handed over the envelope in his hand without saying a word.
After a brief glance, even Gu Donglai was surprised.
"Gold and silver leaf. Zhu Guo?"
"Exactly. Gu Yiyu suddenly raised his head and said, "The child has confirmed the news, and the kid who got the gold and silver leaf has already driven away." If we're going to do it, we can't hesitate any longer. ”
Gu Donglai hesitated for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "The people who can take out the Zhu Guo are definitely not ordinary families, what is their origin?"
Gu Yiyu smiled bitterly: "The time is too short, and the child can't find it at all." He looked at Gu Donglai, who was a little hesitant, and couldn't help but feel anxious, and said, "Father, the child has been stumbling for decades, and he is just one step away from being able to advance to the Grandmaster." His knees weakened, he knelt on the ground, and said, "Now that Gu Tianhe has sprung up in the three generations, and he has also comprehended the power of the soul, once he cultivates to the peak of his innate nature, he will be able to take over the position of the head of the family." He raised his head and said, "When you are old, our vein is naturally carefree, but in the future, our vein is afraid to wither and weaken." ”
Gu Donglai's face sank slightly, and his gloomy gaze flickered a few times.
After a long time, he said in a deep voice: "How many people still know this news. ”
Gu Yiyu immediately said: "The child has already given a ban order, and in a short period of time, this news will definitely not reach the ears of Qiantaishang." ”
Gu Dongqian is another elder in the Gu family, and his cultivation is profound, and he is above Gu Donglai.
In such a huge family of the Gu family, although it has a profound heritage, there are many strong people in the family and there are many factions. The younger generation supported by Gu Dongqian is Gu Tianhe, who has already comprehended the power of the soul, if he knows the news, then even if he snatches the gold and silver leaves, he may not be able to use it on Gu Yiyu's body.
After all, Gu Donglai is a heroic figure, and in an instant, all the stakes have been considered clearly.
He took a deep breath and said, "You continue to block the news now, and try not to let him know about it." Hmph, I'll go out for a trip, no matter who it is, since the gold and silver leaves have appeared in our Gujiazhuang, then this thing is ours. ”
"Yes. Gu Yiyu was overjoyed in his heart, and immediately shouted yes.
Gu Donglai continued: "After I bring back the gold and silver leaf, you will take it immediately and strive to be promoted to Grandmaster. He said coldly: "If you are successfully promoted, naturally no one dares to say anything." But if you fail, hmph, then you should hand over the position of head of the house in advance. ”
Gu Yiyu felt a chill in his heart, but when the matter came, he was no longer allowed to retreat, and when he met his father's gaze, he nodded heavily and said, "The child obeys." ”
Gu Donglai waved his sleeves, and his figure had already fled away, leaving his words echoing in the room.
"Find Zhu Guo, don't waste it. ”
Gu Yiyu obeyed the order and issued an order, but what surprised him was that the down-and-out man who left with Zhu Guo turned out to be without a trace, and seemed to have disappeared inexplicably in Gujiazhuang. (To be continued......)
