What should I do if my junior brother becomes a bad old man?

What Ren Sha didn't know was that just as he was chaining Qinglong, King Jin had already arrived at Gu Xunzhi's small courtyard.

It was Xiaocui who opened the door for King Jin. She didn't expect the prince to come over at this time, and she was quite surprised.The king of Jin rewarded her with two taels of silver and told her to play elsewhere.

It was already dark by now, so Xiao Cui had nowhere to play.But she had never received such a large reward, and she was so happy that she jumped up.Picking up the money, he went into the palace to play with the little maids.

King Jin entered the courtyard and carefully locked the door.

Gu Xunzhi was lying on the bed at this time, but with the protection of Nanming Zhu, he was not that fragile.It's just that neither Ren Sha nor Xiao Cui allowed him to get out of bed easily, so he had to lie down obediently and recuperate.

Now he heard the door knocking, thought it was Xiaocui coming in, but no one answered after calling several times.He struggled to sit up, but saw King Jin appearing in front of his eyes.

Gu Xunzhi was quite surprised, and hurriedly got up to salute, but was held down by King Jin:

"Excuse me, excuse me, isn't Mr. Gu sick? Don't stick to the etiquette."

Gu Xunzhi sat on the bed and smiled at King Jin:

"Thank you, my lord, for coming to see me."

King Jin pulled a stool and sat beside Gu Xunzhi's bed:

"Mr. Gu's illness, I have heard a little bit about it, but the specific situation is not very clear. Looking at it now...is it very important?"

Gu Xunzhi shook his head:

"It's not a big deal though. After all, it's a person who has practiced, and he won't die in a while."

Hearing what he said, King Jin seemed relieved:

"It's fine like this. When you're leaving in a few days, I'll give you a hundred gold as a farewell gift. Although you cultivators don't covet money, after all you're away from home, and it's more secure to have some money with you."

Gu Xunzhi was a little moved when he heard King Jin say this, but he still shook his head:

"My lord's kindness is appreciated. Since I'm traveling with my brother, I don't need any money. The lord needs money for his important affairs, so don't waste it on me."

King Jin listened to Gu Xunzhi's refusal, so he didn't persuade him any more, but said:

"It's fine if you don't want the money. But before you leave, I am hesitant about a few things, and I have to discuss with you."

Gu Xunzhi knew that King Jin relied on him for many things at hand, so now that he was leaving, he felt a little guilty.At this time, the prince said that he wanted to discuss with him, so he hurriedly said:

"My lord, please speak."

King Jin thought for a while and said:

"At this moment, Mr. Ren is holding the dragon-binding rope. There shouldn't be any problems with the dragon-binding matter. But I think, when the dragon is locked up, there are still many specific things. It's best to find a proper person." serve."

Gu Xunzhi nodded:

"This is indeed a problem. Such a large dragon is locked in the mansion, and there are many people. Those who serve must be cautious in their words and deeds, and they must be loyal and reliable. Does the prince have any suitable candidates? "

King Jin nodded:

"I really have a suitable candidate in my mind. In my opinion, Xiaocui is very good. She has no family, and her background is simple. When I bought her, I signed a death contract. When you leave in a few days, it's just right She sent it over. It's just that Xiaocui's temper is too evasive and she talks too much, so she definitely can't keep it secret. Fortunately, she can't write, so as long as she cuts off her tongue, there will be no problem."

King Jin's tone was extremely relaxed and flat, as if cutting off a person's tongue for nothing was the most common thing in the world. Gu Xunzhi opened his mouth and was about to say something, but King Jin said again:

"...Moreover, it will be in the future. I think that in the next three to five years, when my affairs are settled, it will not be good to keep Long imprisoned in the Prince Jin's mansion. If he is released, I am afraid that he will retaliate and the entire capital will be killed. All the people will suffer. Wouldn't it be better to imitate the ancestor Gaozu and slay the dragon, so that future troubles can be eliminated forever, and the dragon meat can be used as a feast to celebrate with the officials. Wouldn't it be nice. No matter where Mr. Gu is, write a letter and let me know, I will definitely send a piece of dragon meat to my husband. However, I am afraid that slaying the dragon is going against the sky in the end, and it may bring disasters. I will definitely pray to the sky. If there is a punishment from the sky, it will be fine on me alone. Don't get involved with Mr. Gu's brother."

King Jin's words were serious, as if he really planned to do this, but Gu Xunzhi understood what Prince Jin meant after listening, and said with a wry smile:

"My lord is reluctant to let me go. To put it bluntly, why bother to say these words, it makes people feel shocked."

King Jin also laughed:

"Mr. Gu, you have been with me for so many years, and you are a smart person. You should understand the truth. You know almost all the secrets in my house, and now I am in charge of all the things I have to do. If you are not here, I am really sorry. worried."

Gu Xunzhi bowed his head and said:

"I understand what the lord means. The lord saved my life at the beginning, and then took me in when I was at my worst, and treated me with kindness. This kind of love can't be repaid anyway, and I should have stayed. It's just that I Senior brother is really not a good talker, I'm afraid that because of this matter, there will be a quarrel between the prince and senior brother, which is not beautiful."

King Jin laughed again when he heard the words:

"Mr. Gu is so smart, why can't he solve this trivial matter? From my point of view, although Mr. Ren is not easy to talk, he can still listen to Mr. Gu's words. I think Mr. Ren is a sensible person. Probably won't do anything outrageous to the savior of my junior brother, right?"

Seeing Gu Xunzhi's hesitation, he said again:

"If Mr. Gu stays, Xiaocui will naturally stay and take care of you. As for the dragon, he can always find a way to settle it in the future. In short, as long as you are here, everything can be arranged properly, so you don't have to worry about anything. Besides, Mr. Gu also knows that my big project will definitely be completed in three to five years or seven or eight years. For practitioners, these few years are not very long. If Mr. Gu thinks about it again Let's go, I will definitely send you there in a graceful manner."

Gu Xunzhi sighed and closed his eyes:

"My lord, please allow me... to think about it carefully."

The smile on King Jin's face did not change at all, seeing that Gu Xunzhi was hesitating, he was not in a hurry.At this time, there was a knock on the door outside, and Jin Wang stood up with a smile, and said:

"In this case, Mr. Gu should think carefully about how to choose. Fortunately, Mr. is sick now, so he can think about it for a few more days. If Mr. still wants to leave, the king will still offer the hundred gold."

Gu Xunzhi remained silent, and King Jin didn't look for his answer, turned his head and left, and opened the courtyard door.

Ren Zhen happened to come back at this moment, and the King of Jin knew that the matter had been completed by seeing his expression.I said hard work and didn't say anything else.

Ren Zhen didn't expect King Jin to be here at this time, so she couldn't help being a little surprised.But he didn't think too much, just nodded to King Jin and said:

"The matter is over, the smell of drunken dream fragrance has not dissipated, and everyone in the mansion is asleep, the prince might as well go to live elsewhere."

Ren Zhen didn't want to talk to King Jin at first, and these few words of exhortation were all for Gu Xun's sake.King Jin smiled and nodded:

"I have trouble, I have trouble. It doesn't matter, I will go to Chunxiao Building tonight."

Ren Sha frowned, turned around and entered the room without saying anything.

Gu Xunzhi was still ill, and as soon as Ren Xun came in, he rushed to see him.But Gu Xunzhi was sitting on the bed leaning against the head of the bed, his face was like gold paper, and his expression was not worried.

Ren Zhen quickly walked to his bed in two steps, and held his hand:

"What? Do you feel bad?"

Gu Xunzhi shook his head:

"It's okay, with Nanming Zhu here, I won't be in any danger. It's just that the prince came to visit and said a few more words, which made me a little sleepy."

Ren Zhen believed it was true, breathed a sigh of relief, sat on the stool next to her, and asked:

"Shall I get you a glass of water, or are you sleepy now?"

Gu Xunzhi shook his head again:

"Brother, just sit here and accompany me."

Ren Xun pulled the stool closer to the bed.He held Gu Xunzhi's hand, but felt that it was very thin and wrinkled.The nails of the elderly grow fast. They have been busy with work for the past two days. They have not been cut for a few days, and they have grown very long.Seeing this, Ren Zhen said to Gu Xunzhi:

"Lie down and don't move. I'll cut your nails"

Gu Xunzhi did not object, and nodded:

"The nail clippers are in the little basket over there."

Ren Xun usually cuts nails, and only uses tricks to make a trick, but this time, according to Gu Xunzhi's instructions, he found a pair of nail scissors in a small bamboo basket on the table next to him, and carefully held Gu Xunzhi. fingertips, carefully trimming his nails into arcs.After cutting it, I asked Gu Xunzhi again:

"Where's the file?"

Gu Xunzhi saw his senior brother's jade-like white hands holding his own withered fingers, and felt that he couldn't bear to look at it, and sighed:

"Brother, why bother so much, such ugly hands, no matter how carefully they are arranged, it's useless, just a random cut will do."

Ren Zhen ignored him, turned around and searched in the small bamboo basket, finally let him find a small file, and carefully smoothed the edges of the nails, then put away the small scissors and small file, When he came back, he sat by the bed again, stroked his junior brother's hand, and said:

"Things are progressing fairly smoothly today. We will leave after you get better in a few days."

Hearing what his senior brother said, Gu Xunzhi was a little happy at first, but when he thought of what King Jin had just told him, he just felt heartbroken.

Ren Zhen only thought that Gu Xunzhi was still uncomfortable with the matter at hand, hesitated a little, and comforted him:

"We left together this time to find a way to break it so that you can regain your youth. But even if you can't recover, it's no big deal. Don't say that you are a mortal in the final analysis, even the gods in the sky have some The old man. No matter what you look like, you will always be the same in my eyes."

Ren Zhen spoke sincerely, Gu Xunzhi felt that he had never heard such touching words.He almost blurted out and agreed to go with his senior brother, but what King Jin said just now was still echoing in his ears, Gu Xunzhi calmed down, gritted his teeth and said:

"Brother, I can't go with you this time, you'd better... go by yourself."
