After saying goodbye to Zhang Yian, Gu Shun immediately entered the courtyard where he lived.

As soon as he entered the yard, he vaguely realized something was wrong in the yard.

There were actually a few lights in the house where candles were lit. Generally, when Gu Shun was not in the house, he usually didn’t light the lamps in the house, but only a few candles for temporary lighting.

At the door, Chunhua was still standing there, looking out.

After seeing Gu Shun coming, Chunhua immediately walked to him and asked anxiously: "Shanghaikeeper, where are you going? Your mother has been waiting for you here for a long time. She thought you went to the residence of the Zhang family's mother and son next door, but there was no one from you."

"My mother actually came. What did she do when she came here in the middle of the night?"

Boom-

Before Gu Shun could finish his words, another thunder flashed across the night sky. Chunhua hurriedly interrupted him and said, "Shoulder Shopkeeper, stop talking, let's go in first."

Gu Shun followed Chunhua into the room. In the room, Chu Xiuru sat on the chair facing the door, while Qiu was actually standing beside her, holding the desperate Xiaobai in her hand.

When Xiaobai saw Gu Shun come back, he exerted force with all four claws and started to scream.

Gu Shun immediately stepped forward and rescued Xiaobai from Qiushi's claws.

Qiu Shi looked at a clear scratch on his hand and said, "Young shopkeeper, I must discipline this little white tiger in the future. This little white tiger didn't expect to recognize his master so much. I wanted to tease it. I didn't expect it to be so flexible and fierce. I gave me a claw when I came up. If I hadn't moved quickly and had to be scratched by that claw, I would have to be skin and flesh."

After Xiaobai got into Gu Shun's arms, he suddenly became arrogant and grunted at Qiu Shi.

Qiu Shi swung his fist and greeted it. Xiaobai was immediately frightened and retreated into Gu Shun's arms, not daring to speak any more.

Gu Shun rubbed the tiger's head full of grievances, who was obviously full of resistance, as if he was complaining and resisting these uninvited guests who broke in.

"Shun'er, where did you go in the middle of the night?" Chu Xiuru's voice suddenly came.

"I went out to meet a few Yuantong's guys, and wanted to promote some suitable candidates from the previous team to act as Yuantong's manager, so I went to the assessment for a long time."

"Didn't I say that if you want people, your mother has it. Why do you have to ask for trouble and win over talents by yourself? And do you think your loyal subordinates are so good? I thought you were just on a whim and wanted to try it yourself. After this hot air, you'll really get it done."

"I've said seriously, I've said before that I can't always rely on the strength of my father and mother. I want to make money to support my family."

"You child, like your father, has decided on something, and is as stubborn as a cow. OK, since you insist on this, your mother wants to see what you can do.

Don’t be cheated and count the money for others.”

"How could it be? A child can only lie to others, so how can he allow others to lie to me?"

"What kind of fate do you do? I only have one requirement. Your martial arts cannot be lost. You must learn martial arts seriously with several masters. You cannot waste or slack off. Your current job is to learn and improve your own strength, and don't miss one thing."

Gu Shun hugged Xiaobai and nodded repeatedly, quietly breathing a sigh of relief. If his mother insisted on installing employees in his Yuantong, Gu Shun would definitely not be able to completely refuse.

Of course, the fact that her mother has not mentioned it now does not mean that she has no such plan. The Qinglong Department of the Ancient God Sect, which Gu Shun knows, is a particularly powerful intelligence and spy organization. It is full of eyewitnesses in the Great Class. Every member of the Qinglong Department is comparable to a operative. Everyone is agile, dealing with problems and collecting intelligence is extremely fast and keen, and easy to see through.

If such a person sneaks into Yuantong or even Guangwu, Gu Shun's secret will be gone, and his plan to lie flat will go bankrupt. For this reason, Gu Shun had to be cautious and be careful not to arrange some eyeliners into Guangwu.

But Gu Shun also knew that there was no airtight wall in the world. Even if the defense was tight, there would eventually be flaws and loopholes. However, because of the high sensitivity of the Guangwu force, Gu Shun set up Yuantong as a barrier and transition.

On the one hand, it provides excuses and cover for Guangwu's actions. On the other hand, it is also to build a firewall between Yuantong and Guangwu's power core to prevent Guangwu's existence and secret actions from being known to outsiders, thus jeopardizing Gu Shun's entire plan.

"I understand, mother, I have said it many times. I will not lose my martial arts learning."

Chu Xiuru shook her head laughed and cried. She had no choice but to do anything about this child, either to beat or scold her. She wanted to hold it in her palm to let him grow up safely, and she was worried that excessive spoiling would make Gu Shun develop a proud and conceited temper.

She has been the leader of the Ancient God Cult for more than ten years, dealing with thousands of difficult things, and she has countless people ordered to be killed.

But she has never been so helpless as she treats Gu Shun.

At this time, Chu Xiuru's eyes glanced back and fell on Xiao Hui's body.

"Shun'er, who is he?" Although Chu Xiuru has sent someone to secretly inquire about Xiao Hui's news, the ancient gods' sect can grasp the information now, and there is no result about Xiao Hui's life experience for the time being.

Chu Xiuru always held a little suspicion and alert for this person of unknown origin.

"This is my new close servant named Xiao Hui, I got it from Junze Auction House."

"Why did you decide on such an important position without discussing with your mother? It's so messy." Chu Xiuru scolded.

"The closest servant is the closest person around me, of course it's up to me to decide. And Xiao Hui, I can assure you that it is absolutely reliable and has strong abilities." Gu Shun argued with reason.

Chu Xiuru looked at Xiao Hui, and thousands of thoughts flashed through her mind. Gu Shun learned these messages clearly by using mind reading techniques one by one.

"You are Xiao Hui, where is your hometown? How did you know Gu Shun? What martial arts do you know..." Chu Xiuru asked some doubts one by one with great concern, with an aggressive aura.

Xiao Hui lowered his head and said nothing.

"Xiao Hui's throat is broken and he can't speak. His hometown is from Longquan Town. I chose him during the assessment. He doesn't know how to do martial arts, but I'm going to teach him martial arts." Gu Shun answered these questions for Xiao Hui, "Mother, don't worry, with me here, you will definitely be able to train him into a talent."

Although Chu Xiuru didn't know much about the family in the Central Plains, she had heard of the Xiao family in Longquan, which was slaughtered by the Xianbei.

However, judging from Xiao Hui's age, if Xiao Hui was really an orphan that the Xiao family had not been killed, he should have been very young at that time.

In order to get the Xiao family to hand over the forging method of Longquan sword, the Xianbei people threatened and tempted the head of the Xiao family for a long time. However, the head of the Xiao family was a real man and would rather die than surrender. In the end, the Xianbei people were anxious and became angry and killed nearly two hundred people in the Xiao family, including servants and servants.

In order to find a way to forge the Longquan Sword, the Ancient God Sect also sneaked into Longquan Town from a secret. None of the Xiao family survived that time, which is well known to the locals.

So Xiao Hui is probably not from the Xiao family in Longquan. Maybe he is just a small family in the Xiao family, and he is even not from Longquan at all.
