Chapter 204: Going Home
Gu Xiu said shamelessly: "In time, you eight sister, I might become the person you want to meet when you have lost your thoughts."
"You are more lucky than me and have a thicker face than me." Gu Xuan couldn't help poking her face.
After joking with Gu Xuan for a while, the two of them fell silent at the same time. There was only the whistling sound of wind in their ears. The fifth-level red-headed eagle was very fast, and the mountains, rivers and towns and farmlands were sweeping by their eyes.
A long time passed, Gu Xuan said: "At this speed, you should be able to reach Xianshui City in ten days."
When Gu Xiu and the other two were on the road, there was an elegant bamboo house in the inner city of Shangcheng City Lord's Mansion. It was better to say it was a bamboo house. It was surrounded by lush forests and bamboos. There were several winding paths extending from the outside. There was a two-story palace in the bamboo forest.
White jade is used as a wall and glazed tiles are used as a tiled. Against the backdrop of lush bamboos around, the palace looks bright and radiant. The plaque above the palace has three big words "Yazhuzhai".
At this time, the owner of Yazhuzhai, a slender and gentle woman, was sitting upright at the white jade table in the side hall, and a female cultivator sat opposite her. The cultivation level of the female cultivator was a very large level higher than that of the owner. Her attitude was not particularly humble, but she was also respectful.
"You mean, Gu Xiu has left the city lord's mansion a few days ago?" the woman asked.
The female cultivator replied: "Yes, I walked with a disciple from the outer city. It was Gu Xiu's sixth sister. However, they hired a fifth-level red-headed eagle from the Spirit Beast Courtyard. The red-headed eagle was extremely fast and had a strong combat power. Even if I took action myself, I would not be able to take over them. Unless there is a senior from the True God Stage who went to chase him, I could only..."
"Fifth-level redheaded eagle, why did the Spirit Beast Academy hire a fifth-level redheaded eagle to a mid-stage disciple of Congxit? Could it be that she is under the name of Uncle Ruoguang?
He is really shameless. Uncle Ruoguang is now in retreat in Jiuyun Mountain and will not come to support her in person. Could it be that there is any token? Or the head of the Spirit Beast Academy can easily hire a fifth-level spirit beast to her based on hearsay? Do you know which head of Gu Xiu hired a fifth-level red-headed eagle from?"
The woman clenched the cup in her hand and asked.
The female cultivator said respectfully: "Miss has misunderstood. According to the information I have found out, the reason why Gu Xiu was able to hire a fifth-level red-headed eagle as a mount was because of Yu Chen."
"Yu Chen? How did he know Gu Xiu?" The woman raised her eyes and glanced at the cultivator. Her eyes, which were always soft like a pool of autumn water, were filled with anger and impatience.
"I don't know how I met you, but four years ago, on the day Gu Xiu returned from the Secret Realm of Luoying Valley, Yu Chen was the one who accompanied her to recruit Xintang. As for Senior Xu, he arrived later." The female cultivator replied.
"Shuiya Poplar, shameless!" The woman shouted softly with almost gritted teeth. The female cultivator glanced at her and saw that her originally gentle and beautiful face was a bit ferocious at this moment.
The female cultivator felt a faint mockery in her heart, but she was still respectful on her face. She probably understood in her heart that the lady who seemed to be in high status in front of her was unable to use Gu Xiu for the time being. The monk in the True God Stage would probably not contribute to her. Humph, she is not a real princess.
I don’t know if it was because of the shock of the fifth-level red-headed eagle, or if I had really been worried before, there was no abnormal situation along the way.
When she saw the gate of Xianshui City, although it was very different from the gate in her memory, it was much taller and more majestic, because Gu Xiu knew in her heart that the Gu family lived in this city, she still felt a sense of "return". However, when she thought of Gu Shu's disappearance, Gu Xiu felt a sense of timidity from the hometown. She had a deep sisterhood for Gu Shu. Now that Gu Shu didn't know his life and death, Gu Xiu was really worried about it.
She sighed, feeling a little bad.
Gu Xuan knew what she was thinking and comforted her: "Maybe things are not as unbearable as we thought. Ninth Sister... Her words may not be completely true."
"You'll know when you go back and take a look."
Gu Xiu and Gu Xuan asked the red-headed eagle to land in front of the city gate. Gu Xiu took the red-headed eagle into the spiritual beast space. Perhaps because of the spiritual beast space, the fifth-level red-headed eagle was quite polite to them and did not get angry on the way. This took a shorter time than expected to arrive at Xianshui City.
Xianshui City is indeed as Gu Yue said, with great changes. The streets are wider and there are more shops. Even the monks walking in the city seem to be much more energetic.
Passing by the City Lord's Mansion in Xianshui City, although it is incomparable to the City Lord's Mansion in Shangcheng, the changes now are too great compared to eight years ago.
The wall of the city lord's mansion is nearly twice as high. Although the material of the building wall is not the Jiuchen Yuanxi Stone, it is not the jade-green bricks used in the past. Now there are faint patterns on the wall bricks, although they are not very obvious, but with the monk's eyes and attention, you can still see them.
"Is this a jade warm brick?" Gu Xiu said.
"It seems that the letter written in my grandfather is not exaggerated at all." Gu Xuan also said, "Mr. He did the right thing to do when he presented the Sky-Cutting Axe to Master Nuoling."
The two sighed and did not go to the city lord's mansion, but rushed directly to the Gu family in Nanmen Lane.
Even Nanmen Lane has changed. Although the geographical locations are not much different, the roads in the alley are even smoother.
The families on both sides of the road did not change. The two walked to the Gu family. They had the same rich door and the same door plaque as eight years ago. Even the two servants guarding the door had no change except that they were older than eight years ago.
The two servants were originally mortals. Eight years ago, they were only sixteen or seventeen years old, and eight years later, they were already in their twenties.
The two of them saw Gu Xiu and Gu Xuan walking directly into the gate. One of them was about to ask a question, but the other grabbed him and asked carefully and tentatively: "Are the two seniors Miss Six and Miss Eight?"
The appearance of Gu Xiu and Gu Xuan has not changed much in the past eight years. It only took eight years. Although it was not very long for ordinary people, it was not short. It was not surprising that they felt strange to the two of them, but the one who spoke was smart.
Gu Xuan nodded, "That's right."
The servant ran in without saying a word. Gu Xuan and Gu Xiu were stunned, but the slow-reacting servant stomped his feet and asked the boy to steal the first one.
But he at least reacted and hurriedly bowed and invited the two of them in. Gu Xiu took out a few golden beads from the storage bag and threw them to the servant, "Reward you."
"Thank you for the reward of Miss Eight." The servant happily received the Jinzhu and hurriedly thanked him.
The two entered the Gu family's gate and headed to the main monastery all the way. When they arrived at the main monastery, most of the Gu family knew that they were back and rushed to the main monastery.
