Celestial Master as wife

"Poor scholar?" Gu Bai was suspicious.

"Yes, poor scholar." Gu Qing said, "Last time when I was looking for Yinyang Peach Tree, I happened to meet a play on the street, so I went to the top floor of Drunken Dream Academy with the scholar."

"You mean that scholar may be an important person to Lian Yi?" Gu Bai said.

Gu Qingyan looked at the emperor, and said firmly: "If you didn't investigate other people according to what you said, the emperor, then this can explain it. It can only be said that Lianyi hid this scholar very well."

"Do you know the name of that scholar? I'll send someone to investigate." the emperor said.

"I don't know, but if you want to investigate a person, I don't think it will be difficult for you, the emperor." Gu Qingyan smiled, and then reminded: "If that scholar is really valuable to Lianyi If it's different, there must be people in Lianyi secretly protecting him, and you must not startle the snake during the investigation, otherwise it will be difficult to find that scholar again."

"I understand." The emperor nodded to indicate that he knew.

"What should we do after that?" Gu Bai asked.You can't threaten to extract a confession, so what's the difference between them and Lian Yi.

"Find out the relationship between that scholar and Lianyi first, so that we can make a move!" Narrowing his eyes, Gu Qingyan said coldly.

"I'm going to ask someone to investigate." After speaking, the emperor turned around and left the imperial study.

In the entire imperial study room, only Gu Qingyan and Gu Bai were left, neither of them said a word, thinking about their own affairs in different ways.

No one expected that often the plans always fail to keep up with the changes, and a new day will disrupt all their plans.

.........

On the high platform, looking from a distance, those houses and mountain peaks look so small, which makes the tense heart relax involuntarily.

Gu Qingyan clasped his hands on the railing, and the night breeze carried his long-haired clothes with a hint of coolness.Gu Bai clearly saw a long-lost and comfortable smile on his face, although the smile was so slight.

"Gu Bai, tell me...it would be great if I could go back to my own world, then some things wouldn't happen..." Gu Qingyan said softly, looking dimly into the dark night Sky.

Gu Bai was startled, turned his head to look at Gu Qingyan, and asked, "Do you want to go back?"

"...I don't know..." After a moment of silence, Gu Qing said: "In the past, I would definitely choose to go back without hesitation, but now I don't know, here are you and the patriarchs, Xing'erchen Er and...Nurse, and Helian Qiran, made me hesitate."

Gu Bai smiled silently.

"Do you know what kind of person I was before I met you?" Gu Qingyan looked at Gu Bai, saw that he was just listening quietly and had no intention of speaking, and continued: "I was very lonely at that time, Although I have a grandpa, I don’t feel affection or even emotion from people around me. I didn’t deal with many people, so I was very decisive at that time, and I didn’t have any weaknesses. But it’s different now, I became greedy and I had a lot of weaknesses."

"I would also think, why do I have to protect those people, obviously they are so selfish, whenever I think this way, my grandfather often said to me: 'No one has the meaning of everyone's existence, whoever No one has the right to arbitrarily decide their life and death' this sentence will always be in my mind."

Gubai said nothing.

Gu Qingyan said to himself: "I have never understood why I want to protect these people, just because of my status as a celestial master? Helian Qiran asked me. At that time, I was actually confused deep in my heart, but now I understand. It also has the meaning of protecting these people, because you think so, so I don't regret it."

"Xiaoyanzi, are you scared?" Gu Bai said firmly, turned around, and pulled Gu Qingyan's shoulder to make him look at him.

Gu Qingyan opened his eyes slightly, then smiled lightly and said, "Maybe."

"Gu Bai, do you have someone particularly important?" Gu Qingyan asked.

Very important person?Gu Bai quickly shook his head and threw the person in his head out, he actually thought of that man?In order to hide his emotions, Gu Bai quickly looked away, and blurted out: "Yes, you and the patriarchs are my most important people!"

Gu Qingyan just smiled and didn't speak out.

"By the way, I heard that you let the patriarch bring Chen'er and Xing'er back to the clan?" Gu Bai asked, changing the subject.

Gu Qing said nothing, just nodded.

"Why didn't you inform me, I haven't been back to the clan for several years, I really miss it a little." Gu Bai said, "But you don't have to worry about this, the people in the clan are very friendly, I believe Xing'er and Chen'er will be very happy."

"I'm not worried about this. I believe they will take good care of the two children, because I trust them." Gu Qingyan smiled and said, "Since you thought about it, why haven't you gone back for so many years? I see You are free every day."

Speaking of this, Gu Bai couldn't help sighing again and again.He only heard him say: "Didn't I tell you last time, I can't go back."

"I don't know what kind of deal the old patriarch made with the emperor, so I became their pawn in the deal. Every time I wanted the Hui to take a look, the emperor would know from nowhere that he appeared in front of my palace. I never went out." Gu Bai talked about his sad past, "It's not that I'm afraid of the emperor, in fact, I don't want to stay in this smoky place, this place is just a gorgeous cage, and it will fall if I'm not careful. Into the abyss."

Gu Qingyan became a little curious, and asked: "What's so good about the old patriarch you are talking about? No matter what, you can make you so devoted to him? Anything can involve him."

"The ancient clan was built by him alone, and all the people were brought back from this mortal world by the old patriarch. Before meeting the old patriarchs, everyone lived a life without enough food and clothing. Some of them are orphans. Now everything we have is given by the old patriarch, who also taught us these unbelievable techniques of catching ghosts and expelling evil. Although the old patriarch is a bit unreliable, he is in our hearts An existence that no one can replace." Gu Bai explained.

"An existence that no one can replace..." Gu Qingyan repeated in a low voice.

"But having said that, if the old patriarch doesn't show up again, I will forget what he looks like." Gu Bai laughed.

Gu Qing said nothing, and suddenly said after a long while: "Hurry up, I believe you will be able to return to the clan in a short time."

Gu Bai chuckled, and said: "I would have been very happy in the past, but now, if possible, I want to look around and live in a different environment."

Gu Qingyan smiled lightly, patted his shoulder and stopped talking.

Overnight, the two chatted and laughed quietly on the high platform like this.In the early morning, Gu Qingyan bid farewell to Gu Bai and the emperor and rushed back to Xiaoyao Palace, and a bigger disaster happened quietly.

On the western border of the city, screams and roars of people terrified and terrified could be heard continuously from several simple small houses, ups and downs, from the initial screams and growls to the final silence, it was also death. General silence.

On the way, Gu Qingyan changed his appearance and wandered aimlessly on the street full of people and cars.No one can recognize him, the noise of the common people bargaining with the peddlers, the yo-heh of the candied haws grandfather, and the various voices of the vegetable sellers soliciting business... There are all kinds of voices, but Gu Qingyan can hear them It's so ethereal.

Involuntarily stopped in front of a peddler's shop, Gu Qingyan looked up at the peddler and realized that he had unconsciously walked to the place where he took Xing'er to buy hairpins.

I just heard the peddler say: "Sir, which one do you want to buy? I guarantee that she will like these gifts for the girl she likes."

Picking up the tassel hairpin that was the same as Xing'er, Gu Qingyan asked, "How much is this?"

"Master, you have a good eye. This hairpin is the most attractive and not heavy. This hairpin only costs ten taels of silver!" The peddler said cheerfully.

Just like that day, Gu Qingyan took out 15 taels of silver and put it on the hawker's shop, turned around and left with the hairpin in his hand.

The peddler hastily stopped him, returned the extra five liang of silver to him, and said with a smile, "Master, you gave me back the extra five liang of silver."

Gu Qingyan said: "Take it, I will be angry if you don't." After speaking, he put the five taels of silver in the vendor's hand and turned away.

The peddler seemed to realize something, and he didn't say anything anymore, but just squeezed the money in his hand and watched him leave.
