Chapter 13 Xiuxian Family
(The name of the person has been slightly modified, please pay attention~)
when – when – when –
The crisp bells echoed continuously on the top of the peak, and flocks of birds were startled by the rustling. All the disciples of the Gu family gathered in the hall. The principals of each room were sitting at the bottom left and right, and the young disciples were sitting behind their elders. Everyone’s eyes were on the emaciated figure standing quietly in the hall.
The patriarch Gu Hengchen is over a hundred years old, with white hair and beard. As a cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building, he is still in his prime. It’s just that there was a problem with his practice of the practice, so when he broke through from qi refining to foundation building, his appearance has not changed. The three elders sitting on his left and right are all monks in the early stage of foundation building, and they look older than him. At this time, he said to the old man on the left: “Sixth brother, you were in charge of teaching Jianchen back then. Do you think this girl is from his bloodline?”
The old man was fat, very rich, with a kind smile on his face. He looked at Gu Yan and said in a deep voice: “It looks a bit similar, can the patriarch determine that she is the blood of the Gu family?”
Gu Hengchen nodded: “She is from the blood of the Gu family, it must be true.” His voice slowly calmed down and said, “Daughter, come up and let us see clearly.”
Gu Yan stepped onto the high platform, she lowered her head slightly, and said, “Gu Yan pays respects to the great ancestor.” Gu Hengchen said “um”, his eyes were like electricity, and he swept over Gu Yan.
Gu Yan felt a strong pressure penetrated from the top of his head to the soles of his feet. This is the coercion of the Foundation Establishment cultivator! It is definitely not something that a little shrimp with a layer of Qi refining can resist. Fortunately, this coercion only swept over her body and took it back.
But no one noticed that between Gu Yan’s eyebrows, the pale yellow pentagram lightly flickered.
The old man smiled and asked Gu Yan, “Where is your father now, and who is your mother?”
Gu Yan hesitated for a while before telling her origins. The faces of the elders showed regret. The sixth patriarch sighed, “Jian Chen was naturally intelligent back then, but he was too strong, too rigid and easy to break. Daoist cultivators were too strong, and it was not a blessing in the end.”
It was just Gu Yan’s keen sense that when they mentioned their mother, they all showed disdain on their faces. It seems that the mother’s identity as a mortal is always not recognized by the monks.
The sixth patriarch sighed after hearing Gu Yan’s statement. “It’s also a poor child. Now you are the only bloodline in Lao Jiu’s family. Big brother?”
Gu Hengchen gave a “hmm” and said, “The fire root of the four elements is still a little worse than her father. But if you can cultivate qi into the body by yourself, it is considered diligent. Just stay at home and practice well. From now on From now on, you will live in the ninth room, which is your father’s residence.” Then he turned to the old man and said, “Sixth, Jianchen is not here, but this girl has a stepmother. Although it’s not a courtesy, But they finally have a place. Let them live together. In the future, you will be responsible for teaching them in this room. ”
The old man stood up and bowed. Gu Hengchen said loudly: “Since you are successful in qi refining, you can enter the family tree of my Gu family. In the future, Gu Yan will be a child of the Gu family, everyone knows?”
Everyone stood up and respectfully responded: “Yes!” Gu Hengchen got up, waved his sleeves, and walked into the back hall.
Gu Yan was a little stunned, is this the end? She also thought that the big family would have a complicated and cumbersome identification procedure, and it seemed that Gu Hengchen could make a decision. It’s no wonder that in the world of immortal cultivation, strength represents everything. As the only cultivator in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment in the family, Gu Hengchen naturally has the energy of one word.
At this time, the people in the hall below all dispersed in twos and threes, leaving only the old man known as the Sixth Patriarch. He looked at Gu Yan with a smile and said, “My name is Gu Tingchen, ranking sixth. Call me the Sixth Patriarch, I was the one who taught your father back then. His aptitude is among the young children, and he was considered outstanding, so you can’t weaken your father’s name.”
Gu Yan hesitated for a while, but still asked, “May I ask if the grandparents of the younger generation are still there?”
Gu Tingchen said: “They were born without spiritual roots, they can only enjoy the wealth of the world. I heard that after your father disappeared, he was too depressed and passed away.”
Gu Yan couldn’t help feeling a little sad after hearing this. No wonder Gu Hengchen said that his bloodline in this room has been broken, and it seems that there is really no relatives left.
Gu Tingchen saw her look disappointed, and shouted: “A cultivator, who is infused with the qi of heaven and earth, participates in the changes of fortune. How can you be so devoted to the life, old age, sickness and death of mortals, and the love of children!”
Gu Yan was drank by him, his mind suddenly sobered up, he bowed and said, “I have been taught.”
Gu Tingchen saw that she knew the etiquette, smiled with satisfaction, and said: “You have come to see your stepmother, she and your father had a marriage contract. Although it was not a ceremony, the name is still there, so don’t be rude.” As soon as he waved his hand, His Royal Highness curled up and walked up to a woman in Chinese clothes.
The woman was covered in a veil, but she was graceful and graceful, and she was also a qi-refining cultivator. She nodded slightly to Gu Yan and said, “I heard that Jianchen still has blood, and my concubine is also very happy. The little girl is also a lonely person, so let’s be a companion with my concubine.” Her voice was soft and soft, Very nice. Gu Yan heard the most terrifying ghost, she looked at the woman in surprise, her face suddenly pale.
This voice, this appearance, is the Qin Wuyang she saw in Donglai City that day!
She vaguely remembered that at the moment before she fell into a coma, she saw the demonized situation, and before frantically hunting the disciples of Kun Yizong, she threw Qin Wuyang from the center of the explosion. Later, her body was never seen. It seemed that Kuang Zhen still couldn’t bear to kill the aunt who betrayed him, but at the last moment, spared her life.
Gu Yan remembered that Qin Wuyang once said that she had some connections with the Gu family, but she never expected that it would be someone her father had arranged to marry. She never thought that the crude disguise technique could hide the immortal cultivator. With a wry smile, he stepped forward and saluted: “The day we parted, we meet again today, but I don’t know what to call it?”
Qin Wuyang’s eyes widened, although through the veil, Gu Yan could still see the horrified expression in her widened eyes. Knowing that she was afraid that her secret would be exposed by others, she added: “The other day, after I used the escape talisman to escape, I was intercepted by the disciples of Kunyi Sect outside, and it took a few days to escape before I escaped, so my wife did not fall into the enemy’s hands. I wonder if fellow Daoist Xu and your nephew are okay?”
Qin Wuyang’s horrified face slowly calmed down, and she said with a sense of disappointment: “It turns out that the girl is an old acquaintance. That fellow Daoist Xu has already died. As for the nephew…” She had a sad expression on her face and did not speak. .
Gu Yan said in his heart: This woman seems to be pretending! It’s just that, of course, the face will not be dismantled, but instead sighed a few times. Qin Wuyang turned to Gu Tingchen and said, “Sixth Patriarch, this is the young man I saw on the road when my grandson-in-law came to Yunyang City that day. I just didn’t expect it to be a woman disguised as a man.”
Gu Tingchen said with a smile: “It turned out to be an old acquaintance, I still think about it. The teenagers in the family who have not been out recently, they thought it was someone who pretended to be my Gu family’s name.”
Gu Yan let out a sigh of relief, fortunately there was no pretense, otherwise there would be a big leak. She bowed and said, “I didn’t expect my wife and my father to have an old relationship. It was really rude that day.”
Qin Wuyang sighed: “Jianchen and I were old acquaintances. He went to the East China Sea to hunt for treasures and never came back. I thought he died in the fight, but I didn’t expect that he still had blood. You can live with me. , I will treat you as my own daughter.”
Gu Yan looked at this woman with a heart like a snake and scorpion. At this moment, she seemed to be a loving mother, and she couldn’t help but feel like she was in a different world. At this time, Gu Tingchen was very impatient when he heard Qin Wuyang’s words, and said, “You come to Mingtang tomorrow to listen to my sermon, go back and settle down first.” After speaking, he strode away.
Qin Wuyang bowed to see Gu Mingchen leave, and said, “I just heard you say that your name is ‘Yan’, how about I call you Ayan?”
Gu Yan was a little surprised, this name has not been called for a long time. She calmed down and said, “I don’t dare to be called a lady like that, but call me by my name.”
Qin Wuyang didn’t care either, and smiled: “We will spend a long time together in the future, so why be so polite.” She took Gu Yan’s hand affectionately and led her out. As she walked, she was still asking about trivial matters in her life, just like a real loving mother.
Gu Yan followed her out, and responded casually. Suddenly Qin Wuyang asked, “After you escaped that day, did you recover near Tianmu Mountain?”
Gu Yan’s whole body froze, her thoughts turned, and she replied, “Although I avoided the two disciples of Kunyi Sect, I also suffered some injuries. Later, I met a loose cultivator from Tianmu Mountain and was taken in by him. It took a few days before I came to Yunyang City. Recently, I felt that my breath was unbalanced, and it took a few more days to adjust my breath before I came to Qingyun Mountain.” Her words were half true and half false, unless she experienced it personally, she would not be able to tell. Flawed.
Sure enough, Qin Wuyang gave an “um” and said, “Poor, you can live here in the future, and I will treat you like your biological parents.”
Gu Yan nodded respectfully, but said in her heart: Does she really consider herself a mistress? She lived with this stepmother, who was different in appearance, and she sighed in her heart, not knowing whether it was a blessing or a curse.
The place where Gu’s family lives is actually a small town. There are vertical and horizontal roads in the city, places to live, and even marketplaces. The place where Gu Yan lived was in the southeast corner of the small town. There was a small courtyard with several huts in it, which was very elegant. Qin Wuyang said, “This used to be your father’s former residence. That room was where he lived when he was a teenager. You should live there.” He pointed to the opposite room, “I live there, If you need food, you can go to the management office to get firewood, grain and rice, or you can go directly to the clan’s food shop.”
