We walked all the way west, stopping and going, for nearly half a month. Just when the Evil Moon Dynasty was about to leave, we finally arrived at our "hometown".
When looking at the dilapidated courtyard, Gu Yun never imagined that the prince of the Xie Yue Dynasty, his hometown, would look like this.
The feeling of yearning that I had originally had all disappeared at this moment.
"Dad, are you mistaken? This is the border."
"There's no mistake, I came here when I was a kid."
"But this is the border, and a war may break out at any time."
"It's the border. From here to the east, it's all the territory of Xie Yue."
Gu Shu was contrary to his son, but he was very happy in his heart and walked towards the dilapidated courtyard.
Looking from a distance, there is something really nice here.
Although it is dilapidated, you can still tell that this place used to be a village.
It's just that there is no one in the village now.
"There's no one here!"
Gu Yun frowned, walked in first, and began to look around.
"It's okay if there is no one, because everyone is already dead!"
Gu Yun took a deep breath and also looked at the surrounding situation.
"When I was very young, your grandfather took me here.
There was no one here at the beginning. I heard from your grandfather that there used to be famine and wars here, and everyone died."
Seemingly a little sad, Gu Shu reached out and touched the dilapidated building twice.
Dust covered the ground, he clapped his hands and said, "It is precisely because of this that your grandfather left here and established the Evil Moon Dynasty with others.
It should be said that it is revenge, or it may be that he is thinking of formulating a rule so that such a village will no longer be harmed."
Gu Yun took a deep breath, and the curiosity soon passed, and he said to Feng Mingming, who was calm at the side: "I want to choose a place to live, will you go?"
Nonsense, now Feng Mingming cannot leave Gu Yun for a moment. It can even be said that it is impossible for Gu Yun to leave her sight.
After hearing this, he immediately followed me without saying a word.
"What should I choose? The big courtyard in the center of the village is where your grandfather used to live. We will live there."
"knew!"
Gu Yun trotted away, followed closely by Feng Mingming.
Behind them, Yan'er and Huanxin hurriedly followed, shouting as they ran, "Miss, wait for me!"
"Master, don't run away, this place isn't even cleaned."
Seeing this situation, Lin Xianer suddenly laughed.
"Husband, have you noticed that actually, it's quite nice to be away from the palace? At least there are no worldly disturbances and it's quiet!"
"Quiet?" Gu Shu chuckled: "It's not quiet here. This is the border, and war may break out at any time."
"What kind of war will happen here?" Lin Xian'er looked around and said, "This is just a village, and there are mountains behind it. The two dynasties won't fight here, right?"
Gu Shu shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Of course there won't be a large-scale war here. What if Xie Yue is defeated?"
"What's the meaning?"
"If Cang Ye defeats Xie Yue, not to mention more, he only needs to occupy one-tenth of Xie Yue's territory, and this place will become Cang Ye's place.
After failure, this place will be cleaned up by the other party, and when the time comes, you can imagine."
ah?
Lin Xianer suddenly frowned: "Then you still bring us here?"
"Don't worry, I'm still here, right? Besides, do you think Ming Ming and Yan'er are vegetarians?
That little maid is obviously many times stronger than me, so as long as she is here, there is no need to worry."
Lin Xian'er looked at her husband with strange eyes and asked in a low voice: "Did you take these into account when you came back?"
"That's right!"
On the other side, Gu Yun took Feng Mingming to the largest courtyard in the village.
It looks quite big, but compared with the buildings in the royal city, it is still far behind.
The entire courtyard is made of bluestones. There is no gate. It is full of weeds and a few wooden boards are scattered not far away.
"Miss, don't worry, you can move in after we finish cleaning up!"
As soon as she followed him in, Yan'er frowned, especially when he saw his young lady standing in the weeds that was half a person tall, with a look of resentment on her face.
Even I feel that there is no place for people to live here, but my young lady, with a rich body, is still laughing.
"Master, please come out first. After Yan'er and I clean up this place, you can come in again!"
Huanxin also frowned, stretched out her hand and started to pull up the weeds.
Gu Yun was helpless, shook his head and said: "Let's get together. Just the two of you will clean up this place. It's getting dark."
Just like that, the four people started pulling up weeds.
"Miss, while you rest, we can do this kind of work."
Yan'er was anxious. Looking at Feng Mingming who was bending down to pull weeds, she quickly stopped him.
What a dereliction of duty. Ever since she followed Feng Mingming, she had done her duty and would not let Feng Mingming do anything that was troublesome.
It can be said that she took good care of him, but now, seeing Feng Mingming doing this, she almost cried.
It was very slow at first, but later with the participation of Gu Shu and others, the speed was much faster. The weeds in the yard were cleared by them in less than half an hour.
Looking at the flat place, just such a yard is enough for people like them to live.
It can be seen that the original village was also built around this courtyard.
"Master, you may not have thought that I am also a member of this village!"
At this time, Shadow clapped his hands and laughed.
"Is there any story in this?"
While cleaning the dust, Gu Yun asked the shadow not far away.
"There is no story. My mother is also one of the people who walked out from here, so I can be considered a member of this village!"
Well!
Gu Yun turned to look at the excited shadow and asked, "What about your mother?"
"Dead, he died after giving birth to me. My father died earlier, within a few years of leaving this village.
I haven't seen it either, I just heard it from the old man."
Gu Yun was silent, turning his head to look at the shadow without any inner fluctuations. He didn't know what to say.
The village is still the same village, but there are no other people here.
If it were me, I would definitely feel uncomfortable when seeing this situation.
But the shadow was different. Not only was he fine, but he was a little excited.
"Master, are we going to take root here in the future?"
Gu Yun was startled for a moment, then looked back at his parents who were cleaning the house, and suddenly laughed: "Yes, I'll take root and live here.
Regardless of whether this is the border or not, whether it is safe or not, this is our future home."
