Gu Xiaojiang is one of the few friends of Gu Sheng among Gu Family Village. Seeing that he has a chance to get out of Gu Family Village, Gu Sheng is happy for him from the bottom of his heart.
"This is a good thing! Congratulations, congratulations! What about some drinks? I just made some good osmanthus brew some time ago."
Gu Sheng said that he was about to go into the house to get the wine, but Gu Xiaojiang saw this and hurriedly stopped him.
"Forget it about drinking. Mr. Mo is urging me. He will leave soon. I still have to go back and pack my things."
As he spoke, Gu Xiaojiang approached Gu Sheng and whispered, "A Sheng, others don't know how powerful you are, but I know it. You should also try to break through as soon as possible. I will go to Chiyun Prefecture to explore the way for you first. After you are promoted, I will definitely find a way to get you in too!"
When Gu Sheng heard this, a warm current flowed through his heart. He laughed and patted Gu Xiaojiang's shoulders with both hands, "Okay! Then do your best. I'll wait for you to include me when you become a high official!"
After the two briefly said goodbye, Gu Xiaojiang left the Gu Sheng courtyard and went home to pack their things.
After Gu Xiaojiang left, Gu Wan immediately came over and asked curiously, "Uncle Sheng, what is Chiyun Guard? Is it very powerful?"
Gu Sheng touched Gu Wan's head and said with a smile, "Of course it's awesome. That is Chiyun Prefecture's most powerful army. Just pick a few people in it and they have the strength to destroy Gu Family Village."
Gu Wan's eyes widened when he heard this. "So powerful? Then I will join Chiyun Guard in the future!"
Gu Sheng smiled and said, "Then practice hard! In this world, only you who are strong enough can decide your own destiny."
After Liu Yuanhu eliminated the bandits in Canghe County, life in a village like Gu Family Village became much easier. Not only did they not have to worry about evil forces collecting protection fees, they also no longer had to worry about being blocked and robbed on the way to Canghe County city.
The originally tense days seemed to calm down all of a sudden, and a month later Gu Family Village was back on track.
Gu Family Village Chamber
Gu Jingang, Gu Changming and Gu Dajiang were all standing. Sitting in front of the table were the elders of Gu Family Village who were imprisoned by Gu Jingang.
Great Clan Elder was sitting in the front seat with a cold expression. He looked at Gu Jingang and said angrily, "What, you are worried about raising us old guys, you can't help but want to kill us?"
Gu Jingang heard this and smiled with disdain, "If I wanted to kill you, why would I have to wait until today? I, Gu Jingang, am today thanks to Zhuangzi's training. I will never forget the kindness of you clan elders in cultivating me. I am not that ruthless and unjust." People! The reason why I did this was just that I didn't want to see Gu Family Village destroyed in such a precarious environment. Now that the crisis is over, I will return the power to you, and at the same time, my wife and children will leave Gu Family Village and never come back!"
After saying that, Gu Jingang knelt down and kowtowed three times to several clan elders.
"Gu Family Village You have raised me and cultivated me. I have been kind enough to you for so many years. After these three kowtows, we will be settled! I just hope that the clan elders will stop being so short-sighted as before."
After saying this, Gu Jingang turned around and left the meeting hall.
Several clan elders also looked at him coldly and did not say anything to persuade him to stay.
Although Gu Jingang is the number one master of Gu Family Village, in the final analysis he is not a member of the Gu Family Village family. In addition, the incident of seizing power some time ago made the elders of the clan fear him.
To the clan elders, a master who doesn't obey discipline is a time bomb that might blow him up at some point. In their hearts, they wish Gu Jingang would leave as soon as possible.
Gu Changming and Gu Dajiang saw this and hurriedly spoke, "Elder of the clan! Vajra is the number one master in our village. If he leaves, it will be a big loss for us! And he is dedicated to Zhuangzi, but the way he chose this time is wrong. Can't we give him another chance?"
Great Clan Elder glanced at the two of them coldly and said coldly, "Huh, now under the management of Lord Liu, everything in Canghe County is peaceful. What's the problem even if he leaves? If he is not from my tribe, his heart will be different!"
After hearing this, Gu Changming and Gu Dajiang knew what the clan elders were thinking, and after sighing, they walked away one after another.
After leaving the meeting hall, Gu Changming and Gu Dajiang found Gu Jingang.
At this time, the Gu Jingang family had already packed up, and all their belongings were placed on a carriage.
Gu Changming hurriedly stopped the carriage, took Gu Jingang's hand and said, "Vajra! You can't have a childish temper! Are you willing to leave after living in Gu Family Village for so many years?"
Gu Dajiang also hurriedly added, "You are not alone. You are raising a family. Where are you going to leave Gu Family Village? Are you willing to see Yuhuan follow you and sleep in the open, wandering around? The world is not peaceful nowadays, and it is too dangerous!"
Gu Jingang took off Gu Changming's hand and looked back at Gu Family Village, who had lived with him for decades. The corners of his eyes couldn't help but feel moist. He shook his head helplessly with eyes full of helplessness.
"There is no room for me here anymore. In fact, you know very well that even if I stay shamelessly, the elders will definitely try their best to drive me away. Now Canghe County has stabilized, and Xiao Jiang has joined Chiyun Guard, Gu Family Village will definitely get better and better in the future, so I can rest assured. Go back, I, Gu Jingang, will never forget you two good brothers wherever I go."
As he spoke, he patted Gu Changming and Gu Dajiang hard on their shoulders, then swung the whip and slapped the horse on the buttocks.
The horse was in pain, so he took a step forward and dragged the car away from Gu Family Village.
Looking at Gu Jingang's leaving figure, Gu Changming and Gu Dajiang had mixed feelings in their hearts, and in the end they could only sigh helplessly, feeling helpless.
After all, Gu Family Village is a village fortress built on blood relations. The clan elders are senior and speak with great authority. Even if Gu Jingang's incident happened, they took back all their rights in just three days. At the same time, they also invalidated Gu Jingang's order on the allocation of cultivation resources.
In addition to invalidating the orders made by Gu Jinggang, the foreign elders also raised the threshold for non-family members to practice martial arts, and at the same time, they controlled various resources more strictly.
There is only one core point behind all the provisions, which is to prevent people who are not from the main family from practicing martial arts as much as possible.
Obviously, they are afraid of being bitten by a snake for ten years, for fear of getting a second Gu Jingang.
Fortunately, Gu Sheng no longer has to rely on Gu Family Village's resources to practice and live, so these regulations will not have any effect on him.
But it has a greater impact on the Gu Erniu family.
Gu Wan had already received approval from Gu Jingang to start practicing martial arts, and could also receive training resources from the village. However, when the clan elder returned, these were all invalidated.
Without the resource supply in the village, it is difficult for Gu Erniu to afford Gu Wan's training with Gu Erniu's earning power. Therefore, Gu Erniu can only enter Cang Mountain to hunt wild beasts every day, hoping to earn more money to buy Gu Wan's training materials.
Although Gu Sheng was extremely rich at this time, he also knew that it is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish. Therefore, in addition to teaching Gu Wan how to practice, he also took Gu Wan into the mountains to hunt, and told him his superb archery skills and cultivation experience.
Gu Wan is also very impressive, and his training progress is very fast. In just half a year, he has become a Skin Refining stage warrior. Of course, in addition to Gu Wan's hard work and talent, it also has a lot to do with Gu Sheng feeding him Fanged Blood Tiger's meat every day.
Fanged Blood Tiger is a demon-blood beast, and the energy in his flesh and blood has the effect of tempering his body. In addition, during this period of time, Gu Sheng would also mix elixirs suitable for Skin Refining stage warriors into his meals. These are the main reasons for Gu Wan's rapid progress in training.
That day Gu Sheng was teaching Gu Wan to practice weapons when Gu Dajiang suddenly found him.
Gu Dajiang took great care of Gu Sheng when he first started practicing. Gu Sheng was also very grateful to him. When he saw Gu Dajiang coming, he immediately greeted him.
"Uncle Dajiang, do you have anything to do with me?"
Gu Dajiang looked depressed at this time, as if he had something on his mind.
Seeing Gu Sheng, Gu Dajiang lamented and was silent for a while, then said, "A Sheng, the clan leader is looking for you."
After hearing this, Gu Sheng suddenly understood.
During the second attack of the Black Killing Gang, Gu Sheng killed two people from the Blood Refining Realm, which exposed his strength in disguise.
The clan elders must have discovered this, and now they want to find out what he said.
Gu Sheng is okay with this. If the clan elders can tolerate him, then he will live in Gu Family Village for a while, and then go to after his money and resources are almost consumed. Chiyun Prefecture, if the clan leader cannot tolerate him, then he can leave for Chiyun Prefecture immediately. Anyway, with Ge Qing's token, he doesn't have to worry about not having a foothold after going to Chiyun Prefecture.
Gu Sheng and Gu Dajiang came to the meeting hall. Great Clan Elder took the main seat. The remaining elders of the second clan and the elders of the third clan were on both sides. Gu Changming and Gu Dajiang stood behind them.
"Sit down!"
Great Clan Elder Nunuu gestured for Gu Sheng to sit opposite him.
Gu Sheng pulled up the stool and sat down, calmly without any panic.
The clan elders stared at Gu Sheng for a long time before Great Clan Elder slowly spoke, "Gu Sheng, are you a Blood Refining Realm warrior?"
Gu Sheng runs Snake Breathing Technique, and the power of Qi and blood forms billowing smoke above the head.
"Blood Refining Realm Dacheng!"
The three clan elders He and Gu Changming, Gu Dajiang were extremely horrified. They originally thought that Gu Sheng was just Blood Refining Realm's small success, but they never expected that Gu Sheng turned out to be Blood Refining Realm's big success!
Gu Sheng is only 17 years old!
The 17-year-old Blood Refining Realm is a great talent. Even among Chiyun Prefecture, such talent is quite good.
Originally, they thought that Gu Xiaojiang was already the most talented Gu Family Village, but they did not expect that Gu Sheng was even more abnormal.
After a brief shock, the clan elders' eyes became solemn.
"Gu Sheng, you were born to me, Gu Family Village, and are older than me, Gu Family Village. If Zhuangzi is in danger, will you help him?"
Gu Sheng grinned, "Of course. This is not only the place where I grew up, but also some of my friends live here. Naturally, I don't want to see this place become a desolate place."
Great Clan Elder nodded and felt relieved and continued, "You are not young anymore. There are many women in my master's family who are waiting for marriage, and many of them are beautiful and clever. Why don't you choose from them, get married with them, and give birth to children? It would be a good time for your wife and children to be on the bed."
Gu Sheng knew that the clan elder wanted to tie him to the Gu Family Village master's family through marriage.
Unfortunately, Gu Sheng does not intend to do this.
Gu Sheng shook his head and refused. "Thank you elder for your kindness. This is not my ambition. Please don't mention this matter again in the future."
Great Clan Elder's face darkened when he heard this, he slapped the table and said, "Gu Sheng! You have to think clearly. Warrior cultivation requires huge wealth support. If you become a member of my master's family, you can get Gu Family Village's full supply, and with your strength, in the future The power of Gu Family Village will definitely be handed over to you! Now that I, Gu Family Village, am getting stronger, I may be able to take over the city of Canghe County in a few years and become a new powerful clan. By then, all the power and wealth will be at your disposal. Are you not interested at all?"
How did Great Clan Elder know that what he is saying now is really not attractive to Gu Sheng.
Gu Sheng was extremely rich after looting Lu Family and Qian Jin. The banknotes alone were more than 300,000 taels, not to mention that he still had some martial arts skills to sell. These were also a lot of income. As for the so-called power, it was nothing in the face of absolute strength.
Great Clan Elder's current behavior is like someone who earns 5,000 a month trying to spread the pie for a millionaire. It's quite ridiculous.
Gu Sheng's eyes were firm and his aura was not weak at all as he said, "Elder of the clan, my heart really is not here, please don't mention this matter again!"
Great Clan Elder's face turned cold immediately after hearing this, and the atmosphere in the meeting room instantly became a little solid.
Gu Dajiang saw this and was about to come forward to smooth things over, but was directly interrupted by Great Clan Elder.
"Since your heart is not here, then my Gu Family Village temple is small and cannot accommodate a big Buddha like you. Please find another place!"
After what happened to Gu Jingang, the clan elders could no longer tolerate the existence of a master in Gu Family Village who did not listen to their discipline.
Faced with this outcome, Gu Sheng also expected it. The clan elders' behavior style has long been fixed, and it is obviously impossible for them to change in a short time.
Gu Sheng didn't bother too much about this. He stood up and said with a smile, "Don't worry, clan leader, I will leave Gu Family Village soon."
After leaving the meeting hall, Gu Sheng did not return to his small courtyard, but went directly to Canghe County City to find Ge Qing.
Gu Sheng took out a thick stack of banknotes and put them on the table.
"Alchemist Ge, this is what I owed you last time."
Ge Qing just glanced at it and said with a smile, "That's a lot. If you count the days, your elixir should not be used up."
Gu Sheng nodded and said, "The extra banknotes are not for me to buy elixirs, but are stored here in your hometown. In the future, a young man Gu Wan will come here to ask for medicine. I paid for him."
Ge Qing looked at Gu Sheng with some curiosity. "Are you going to Chiyun Prefecture?"
Gu Sheng didn't hide it either. "Well, it's time to venture into a bigger world."
Ge Qing couldn't help but smile and said, "It's a good thing for young people to go out more and see the world. I wish you good luck!"
After bidding farewell to Ge Qing, Gu Sheng came to Helian Tielan's small courtyard again.
Helian Tielan hasn't seen Gu Sheng for a while. She thought something happened to Gu Sheng due to the changes some time ago. When she saw it again today, her face was full of joy.
"I'm sorry, I couldn't help you kill Zhao Honglie, but don't worry, if I meet him again in the future, I will definitely help you twist off his head!"
Helian Tielan already knew the news of Black Sand Gang's destruction, and the knot in her heart was almost resolved at this time.
"It doesn't matter, Black Sand Gang has been destroyed, and the hatred in my heart has basically subsided. Are you leaving Canghe County this time?"
A woman's sixth sense is very accurate. When Gu Sheng walked in, she felt that Gu Sheng was here to say goodbye today.
