Chapter 1056

At this time, the man with narrowed eyes said something

"Time waits for no one. The person above is impatient, otherwise we will have to replace him."

"How dare you threaten me." Yongquan stood up from his chair with a sudden sound, his eyes blazing.

"How dare you? It's just a fact. If you don't think about yourself, you also have to think about your family."

"You" Yongquan exudes a fierce aura, but he controls his side very well.

Yongquan's behavior, which the man didn't care about, was still the same.

Yongquan's expression kept changing, and the next second Yongquan couldn't guarantee that he wouldn't blow his head off.

But

"Hey, I agreed, but I just have a few conditions."

"Tell me, don't go too far."

"I want to send my grandson away first." Yongquan gritted his teeth. His son had died in the battle, and his grandson must guarantee it first no matter what.

"No problem. By the way, why bother with sending it out and coming back?" The man gave Yongquan a meaningful look.

Yongquan said nothing. Now that he has made up his mind, he will keep going.

"I still need time to arrange it."

"It's up to you, we will cooperate with you." The man had already stood up and left.

Yongquan just watched the other party leave, sitting on the chair and not moving for a long time.

Near noon the next day, Zhao Man sent someone to invite Gu Zheng to go back to Zhenlou for a reunion. Gu Zheng said hello to Xueer and went to the banquet.

Huizhen Building is the largest restaurant in Nanyue City, with a total of four floors. The first and second floors are ordinary halls. There are small private rooms on the third floor. There are four private rooms on the fourth floor, corresponding to the four corners.

Ordinary halls are not as noisy as ordinary restaurants, and most of them are whispered. There are at most talented people, beautiful ladies, and high-ranking officials here. No one speaks loudly like those lower-class people, which is too rude.

Of course, Zhao Man was also in one of the private rooms on the fourth floor.

When Gu Zheng arrived, Hahaha had someone specially to receive Gu Zheng and took him all the way there. Zhao Man had arrived early and was waiting for Gu Zheng.

There were only two people in the huge box, Zhao Man and Gu Zheng.

Zhao Man didn't mention anything first and politely asked Gu Zheng to sit down.

"Cousin, this is the first time we meet. I'm a little bit disrespectful. I'll punish myself with three cups of wine first. Please forgive me, cousin."

Zhao Man drank three glasses of wine without saying a word.

Zhao Man was also sincere for Xue'er. He followed Xue'er and called him cousin Gu Zheng, and his attitude was very similar.

Gu Zheng pretended to be confused and said, "It's okay. If we don't fight, we don't know each other." Although he was the one making the fight, he still knew each other, so this was not wrong.

"Haha." Zhao Man's expression was a little awkward, but he still pretended to smile and said, "My cousin is so humorous."

"I don't know where my cousin's home is." Zhao Man probed cautiously.

"Hungry, Brother Zhao, you and I are about the same age, so just call me Gu Zheng." Gu Zheng felt a little weird being surrounded by Zhao Man's cousins ​​one after another.

"Our family lives on the other side of the mountain. Most people can't find it. I am the eldest in our family. I make the decisions in our family." Gu Zheng made it up randomly, but at least there is something going on. He is the boss.

"That's great, Brother Gu, people in the Ming Dynasty don't tell secrets." Zhao Man couldn't help it anymore, "I like Xue'er, and I want to propose marriage to her. Please make it happen, Brother Gu."

Parents' orders have been very effective since ancient times, especially for a lonely person like Xue'er. If there are relatives who make the decision, they can completely replace their parents.

"As you know, our family doesn't have many rules, but it's a little different from others. If possible, I won't object. After all, you have done a lot for my cousin, and my cousin also told me."

Gu Zheng started talking nonsense seriously.

This made Zhao Man's mood fluctuate, like a roller coaster, up and down.

"How can you agree that I will give everything I have to marry Miss Xue'er." Zhao Man was a little anxious. He put his hands on the table and leaned his upper body towards Gu Zheng.

"Are you willing to give up all your wealth and status, and go back to the dilapidated mountain village with us, where there is no big fish or meat, just plowing at sunrise and returning at sunset, a poor and simple life?"

Zhao Man's body stiffened instantly and he asked himself, would he be willing to give everything for her? Are you willing to give up this noble status and live a secluded life with her?

Zhao Man remembered how cute and kind she was when he first met her two years ago.

She walked into my heart inconspicuously, and I fell hopelessly in love with her. I cared about everything, understood her world, and slowly fell into it.

Gu Zheng watched Zhao Man's initial astonishment slowly turn into a smile.

"I do." Zhao Man said firmly. At this moment, Zhao Man felt that he was willing to trade the whole world for Xueer's smile.

"Okay, you're qualified." Gu Zheng knew that this was what he really thought. Although he still has love, he has been alone from the time he was on earth to now. Maybe he has been alone for a long, long time, but it does not mean that he will not be alone for a long time. I admire people like Zhao Man.

"As long as Xue'er doesn't object and is willing to marry you, I have no objection."

Zhao Man felt that he was radiating joy from the inside out, "I will ask my father to propose marriage and give Miss Xueer a grand wedding. Don't worry, I will never regret it. We will go back together then."

What's going on? Gu Zheng looked at Zhao Man in surprise and quickly grabbed Zhao Man who wanted to go back. He said angrily, "What are you thinking? Didn't you hear me? I mean, you heard me clearly?"

Gu Zheng took a deep breath and said, "As long as Xue'er doesn't object and is willing to marry you, I have no objection."

"Do you want me to repeat myself?"

Zhao Mansan returned to his seat and said, "I understand, I understand."

The next meal was a feast for both the guest and the host.

Having said that, this guy is actually pretty good, not to mention Cher.

"That Zhao Man, now that we've finished eating, it's time for me to go back. Thank you for your hospitality."

At the end, Gu Zheng was too lazy to continue communicating with Zhao Man. He always tried to trick me. Am I that stupid?

Thinking about it again, Gu Zheng went downstairs.

He accidentally collided with a figure. Gu Zheng was fine, but the person he was hit rolled down.

"Hey, let me go. Who dares to bump into me without fear of death?" Yong Yuxin shouted while rubbing his waist.

Yong Yuxin was angry just now. His beloved grandfather ordered him not to cause trouble in the past few days, especially with that boy Zhao Man.

Yong Yuxin, who looked unhappy, had no choice but to come to drink. He was thinking that the girl downstairs was good, but he was knocked down.

Fortunately, I only climbed a few steps, but I couldn't afford to fall this time.

"It's the bad guy again." Although he had only met Gu Zheng for a few days, Yong Yuxin had encountered more unlucky things than in the past year.

"It's this kid again, he deserves it." Gu Zheng gloated and laughed in his heart, but retorted: "What, you, a guy who farts like firewood, have an opinion."

Compared with the relatively pure people at this time, Gu Zheng achieved immediate results with a little firepower.

I saw Yong Yuxin's eyes were red with anger, and he was so angry that he didn't care about anything and rushed up by himself, shouting.

"I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you."

Gu Zheng directly kicked him down. This kind of indolence and indiscriminate grains, regardless of his identity, could beat any ordinary person. He couldn't take care of himself.

Zhao Man happened to come out from upstairs and saw Yong Yuxin struggling and insulting him, and understood something.

"Don't you know who he is?" Zhao Man didn't know that Gu Zheng didn't give him face yesterday, and he was a little surprised.

"I know." Gu Zheng looked unconcerned.

Tsk, tsk, Zhao Man looked at Gu Zheng's confident expression, it seems that this cheap cousin is a bit mysterious.

"Sir, what's wrong?" At this time, Yong Yuxin's men pulled up a young and beautiful girl. Seeing this scene, he didn't care about the girl in his hands.

Quickly help your son up.

At this time, Yong Yuxin was still in a daze, and all he wanted to do was kill Gu Zheng, the guy who made himself look embarrassed.

"Hey, why did Mr. Yongda become like this? It seems that he accidentally made a mistake. Zhao Man decided to take the responsibility himself.

Listening to the familiar voice, Yong Yuxin raised his head, gritted his teeth and looked at the two people in front of him, thinking that the two people were in the same group.

Yong Yuxin wanted to wave his hand like a fairy and destroy them, but unfortunately he couldn't defeat them. The old man's harsh words came to his mind.

Yong Yuxin broke free from the support of his men and walked away without even saying a harsh word.

"It's a bit evil. Normally Yong Yuxin can't beat you, but I'm disgusting with you." Zhao Man muttered in his heart.

Without the troublesome guy, Gu Zheng and the others of course continued downstairs.

But when passing by the girl, Gu Zheng stopped.

Speaking of being ruthless, Gu Zheng would do whatever it takes to face the enemy, but looking at the girl whose delicate little face was covered with tears and crying silently, Gu Zheng could not be ruthless.

The girl was wearing a long white dress, holding an ancient pipa in her hand, standing there pitifully.

After a few inquiries, the girl looked at the warm Gu Zheng in front of her, thinking that she was about to fall into the clutches of the devil again. She cried and told the truth.

It turns out that this girl suffered a change in her village and fled to her distant relatives from a remote mountain. Unfortunately, her distant relatives were no longer where they were. She didn't know where they had moved. Fortunately, she still knew some musical instruments.

She was thinking about making some money by performing arts, so she bought a pipa with all her money. Today, she was noticed by the evil young man on her first day out. She was so timid that she didn't even dare to call for help.

Now she is still timidly looking at Gu Zheng and the others, but at a glance she knows that the person in front of her is either rich or noble. He is better dressed than the Mr. Wang she has seen. At this time, the girl is waiting for the judgment of her fate.

Gu Zheng thought that if Yong Yuxin came back, this girl would become his scapegoat, and he felt sorry for the girl's life experience. It happened that Xue'er was lacking a helper, so he couldn't help all the time.

"May I have your name."

"Slave Shuang'er." Shuang'er answered timidly.

"Come with me."

Zhao Man watched all this with interest, but did not stop the ancient disputes of good people.

Just like that, Shuang'er followed the work in a daze, not knowing what she was facing.

When I went back, I received Xueer's eyes again as expected.

After Shuang'er settled down for a while, Gu Zheng came to the front to help again.

After the last guest left, Xueer closed the door and asked Gu Zheng with an unhappy look: "Who is the vixen you brought back today? I promised you that I won't allow her to be here."

When Xueer came back from Gu Zheng, she saw a beautiful girl following Gu Zheng. But there were too many people, so when there was no one around, she attacked directly.

Gu Zheng smiled bitterly and touched his nose. You are a real vixen, right?

To make a long story short, Gu Zheng concealed everything that happened to Xue'er today, of course, including the matter of Shuang'er, and the most important thing was to help her.

Now Xue'er did not blame herself, but felt a little sympathy for Shuang'er. If there was no big thing at home, how could she run out alone.

After that, he went to comfort Shuang'er.

In the next few days, Gu Zheng finally had some free time. Except for the first day, he taught Shuang'er how to identify medicinal materials and how to weigh them.

Shuang'er was also very smart. She passed the test in just three days.

Gu Zheng finally had some free time to warm up some of his special medicinal materials so that they could better exert their medicinal properties.

In this way, day by day, Gu Zheng sliced ​​and ground some medicinal materials every day, and warmed up a few special ingredients.

When he had time, he would go out to continue looking for information about the two fruits, but unfortunately he found nothing.

Yong Yuxin did not come to make trouble. I don't know if Zhao Man blocked him.

Anyway, his life was very leisurely.

"Young Master, Young Master."

Gu Zheng had sorted out all the herbs that day, and was going to take the demon grass in a few days.

Suddenly, Shuang'er, who was working in front, ran over in a hurry, holding a piece of paper in her hand. A closer look showed that it was the paper she had drawn when she was looking for herbs to see if Xue'er would recognize her.

"Why, so anxious? Is someone looking for trouble?" Because of Shuang'er's joining, with Zhao Man's protection, ordinary little hooligans really didn't dare to come.

Speaking of which, Zhao Man had been missing for a while, and no one knew why.

"This, this." Shuang'er was so excited that she forgot what to say, and turned the paper over directly, pointing to the red karst fruit and said.

"I know it, I roughly know where it is?"

It was really like a mountain and a river, and there was no way out, but there was another village with willows and flowers. He was about to swallow it, but the news of the karst fruit popped up. Even if there was one, it was better than nothing. Gu Zheng was ready to listen. If possible, he would try to collect the karst fruit and swallow it.

Shuang'er has been living like a paradise these days. There is always endless work to do at home, and she occasionally eats a full meal and wears coarse clothes.

To be honest, when she came here and didn't find her distant relatives, Shuang'er felt that the world was too cruel. If she didn't have some money in her hand, she might have sold herself into slavery.

I didn't expect that I would come to this clinic by chance. I can eat a full meal every day, occasionally have meat, and no longer wear shabby clothes. All of this makes Shuang'er feel satisfied.

Miss Xue'er and Mr. Gu are very good to me, so Shuang'er wants to play her role.

Now she even learns medical skills from Xue'er, starting from the most basic literacy, and she lives a very fulfilling life every day.

Today, when I was sorting out the herbs in the back, I found this painting, which was left behind by Xue'er, because I had seen this fruit and couldn't help but be familiar with it.

I learned that it was the herbs that Mr. Gu needed, although I had seen it a long time ago, so I hurried over to tell him.

Looking at the surprised expression on Mr. Gu's face, Shuang'er felt that she was facing a nightmare when she went back, and she also wanted to help the kind-hearted Mr. Gu.

"Where is it?"

"In the Bess Mountains, the hunters in the village saw it from a distance when they went up the mountain a few years ago. Although it was a little unreal, the description they came back with was very similar to this."

Although it is not certain whether it is true or not, it is only a few hundred kilometers away from this place. If it is fast, it will take a few days to get there. It is worth a trip.

"Pack up, we will go in two days."

Considering that Shuang'er is just an ordinary person, it is very necessary to rent a carriage.

When Xue'er knows it at night, she will also go with him, because she just needs to replenish medicinal materials.

Anyway, I have to go out every once in a while, and everyone is used to it.

Soon, after two days, Gu Zheng served as a coachman, pulling Xue'er and Shuang'er to the northwest slowly.

The East Road Forest Valley, the cave where the fox demon used to be, is now empty. Now there are four little demons standing here.

One of them said: "Master is missing. Has he met with an accident?"

This is a tiger demon, with a tail hanging down behind it, shaking it.

"Maybe, but we don't have to bear that kind of responsibility anymore." A little demon with a human upper body and a scorpion lower body took it.

This is probably not a complete transformation.

"In this way, the oath we made will be released." A demon girl with some rabbit ears said. As long as she was slightly covered, most people would think she was a cute girl next door.

"Anyway, Master has saved our lives. I want to leave a monument to commemorate Master every year in the future." A burly man said, "I will go to find the little junior sister and tell her."

"You are a fool, we are all very grateful to Master for saving us and teaching us to practice, but he asked us to swear a poisonous oath to help him find a way out. We have been searching diligently for many years and have been trapped in life and death many times. This is enough."

The tiger demon said loudly and indignantly, yes, he has lived up to his master. In order to help his master, he has searched all the mountains in the tens of thousands of miles nearby, and he is not ashamed of his conscience.

"That's right. If Big Brother Tiger had fought harder, we would have all died. Anyway, I'm going to stay here for a while." Scorpion King echoed.

Rabbit Bite didn't say anything, but quickly turned his ears to show his inner peace.

The big man watched all this and admitted that they were right, but he could not repay the master's life-saving grace. At that time, they were all seriously injured and would not have escaped death.

But by chance, they all broke into the place where the fox demon was imprisoned.

At that time, the demonized ancient tree was just an ordinary tree.

If the fox demon had not rescued them, they would have been dead long ago, and they would not be where they are today.

No matter what others do, just do your best.

"Bang" the big man came out of the cave and turned into an eagle. He flapped his wings fiercely, rolled up a huge wind vortex, cried loudly, spread his wings and flew high, and soon disappeared.
