Gu Jinan watched his master vent quietly, and he understood why his master was acting like this.
When he first became a disciple, he didn't know who the person who saved him was.
It was only after following his master for a long time that he found out that his master was the third elder of Tianfang Pavilion.
Speaking of Tianfang Pavilion, I have to explain it carefully. Tianfang Pavilion is a Jianghu force that exists in the Great Zhou Dynasty. It has a history of a hundred years. It has eyes all over the Great Zhou Dynasty. There are also people from Tianfang Pavilion in other countries.
Tianfang Pavilion is divided into Ming Pavilion and Dark Pavilion.
People from the Ming Pavilion do business, such as restaurants, tea shops, gambling houses, brothels, jewelry pavilions, cloth shops, grain shops, bookstores, etc. There are even people from the Ming Pavilion in the government, and these people are all talented people.
Even though he is not a top expert, he has no problem dealing with thirty or forty ordinary people by himself.
The Ange is in the business of assassinating and selling all kinds of information, but there are three types of information that the Ange does not sell.
First: Do not sell information that harms national interests.
Second: The news of people who are loyal to the emperor and patriotic will not be sold.
Third: Do not sell information about people who are supported by the people.
In the same way, do not kill loyal ministers and good generals, do not kill people who are supported by the people, and do not kill good people.
Mingge's various businesses are the source of information collection. All kinds of information collected are summarized in Tianfang Pavilion. If Ange receives an assassination mission, it will verify the information of the person killed.
If it is confirmed that this person really deserves to be killed, Tianfang Pavilion will send someone to kill him.
Xiao Mubai was originally the third elder of Tianfang Pavilion. After the pavilion master abdicated, he was asked to succeed him as the master of Tianfang Pavilion.
However, Mu Zhen, the pavilion master in charge of the Dark Pavilion, was not convinced. After the old pavilion master passed away, he launched an attack on Xiao Mubai. Xiao Mubai originally did not want to take over the Tianfang Pavilion, but the old pavilion master was kind to him and even more so.
He was raised as a parent and could only obey the wishes of the old pavilion master.
He never thought that Mu Zhen from the dark pavilion would attack him secretly, but he couldn't defeat him and even poisoned him to kill him. If the elder hadn't secretly helped Xiao Mubai, Xiao Mubai would not have escaped from the Tianfang Pavilion.
Xiao Mubai, who had escaped, did not dare to show his face in front of others. He had been hiding in the remote mountains for these years and was able to survive. It was not until he met Gu Jinan in the Phoenix Mountains and rescued him that he accepted him as his apprentice.
He became two people. In the past few years, he had been looking for detoxifying herbs, but he had never found them.
Until now, the nine-petal blood lotus, the holy antidote he was looking for, finally appeared in his hands.
Gu Jinan also followed Xiao Mubai for a long time, and then he learned more or less about his master's identity and background from his master's mouth, and also learned that his master had an enemy.
In the past seven years, Xiao Mubai has not only been looking for the antidote, he has been secretly contacting his subordinates in Tianfang Pavilion, all of whom he trusts.
Just waiting for Xiao Mubai, the orthodox pavilion master, to return, now that Tianfang Pavilion has been taken over by Mu Zhen, the news of assassination and trafficking has long been forgotten.
These people under Xiao Mubai have long been disgusted with Mu Zhen's actions, but Mu Zhen also has a group of people who loyally support him. When Xiao Mubai escaped, many of his supporters fell into Mu Zhen's trap.
In his hand, Xiao Mubai was almost caught by Mu Zhen, but fortunately the elder saved him secretly.
Otherwise, he would never be able to turn over.
Old Man Xiao calmed down his mood, looked at the young man in front of him, and felt very emotional in his heart. Five years have passed since he accepted this apprentice. He was only three years old, and now he has grown into a handsome young man. But
People are a little too deserted.
When Old Man Xiao rescued Gu Jinan, he felt that the child was carrying something that made him mature and steady at such a young age.
Old Man Xiao sighed. After the poison was cured, he was about to leave Yunjia Village. He wanted to go back for revenge, and he also wanted to take over Tianfang Pavilion. He was worried about leaving Gu Jinan alone here.
Old Man Xiao decided that before leaving, he should arrange his apprentice's future life so that he could feel at ease.
Old Man Xiao patted Gu Jinan on the shoulder without saying anything. The master and apprentice had lived together for five years and had long been familiar with each other. They could understand the meaning of every look and movement.
Gu Jinan also guessed that his master would definitely leave, and he did not feel reluctant or stop him. He knew that his master had been waiting for this day for too long.
If it were him, he would also go back, but his wings are not full yet, so he would have to wait if he wanted to go back.
He is not in a hurry!
Old man Xiao glanced at his apprentice, took the wooden box and returned to the room.
Only Gu Jinan was left in the courtyard. Gu Jinan raised his head and looked in the direction of the capital.
Two more days passed in the blink of an eye. On the morning of the third day, someone knocked on the door of Yun's house. Mrs. Zhao was still surprised who came to her house so early in the morning.
After Mrs. Zhao asked her boss to open the door, she found that the person knocking on the door was Old Man Xiao from next door, accompanied by Gu Jinan.
"Eldest nephew, are your mother and father at home?"
"Here, here, Uncle Xiao, you must be hungry. My wife's rice has just been prepared and will be delivered to you in a minute."
"No, I have something to ask your parents for today."
"Oh, Uncle Xiao, please come in, my mother is in the yard."
While speaking, Yun Yi stepped aside, letting Old Man Xiao and Gu Jinan in front of the door enter, then closed the door, and Yun Yi followed suit.
Mrs. Zhao, who had been paying attention to the movement at the door for a long time, was already waiting in the yard. It seemed that the person was Old Man Xiao next door. Her eyes suddenly lit up. Her God of Wealth was here. It is not easy for him to come to the door. Is it difficult for him to come this time?
Want to give her money again?
Thinking of this, Mrs. Zhao immediately said with a bright smile: "Hey, brother Xiao, why are you here? I was just asking the boss to send the meals for you and your grandson. It's time to eat together when you are here."
"Haha, you're welcome, sister. There's no rush to eat. I came here today to ask my sister for help."
"Oh? Brother Xiao, what can you tell me?"
"That's it. I have to leave Yunjia Village for a while, and I can't take away the child Jin'an. I have become familiar with my sister's family after moving to Yunjia Village, so I came here rashly. Don't worry, sister, I won't let you go in vain.
Take care of it and I’ll give you money.”
Old Xiao had no choice. He couldn't take Gu Jinan with him when he went back for revenge, so he had to make this decision. He didn't know if the Yun family girl would agree to it.
Mrs. Zhao was also surprised that Old Man Xiao asked her for something, but she didn't expect it to be this.
"I thought Brother Xiao was asking me to do something, just take care of the child, no problem! My Yundong family is about the same age as Jin'an, and we can have multiple playmates. It doesn't matter whether we have money or not. This kid Jin'an can
I can support myself by hunting. Besides, Brother Xiao still has a lot of money for food. I have to deliver food to your family on weekdays, but if I miss your food, I will make a profit."
Mrs. Zhao agreed without any hesitation. Why don't you just take care of the child? It's a trivial matter. Besides, Jin'an is such a stable child. He's good-looking. He's no worse than her good-looking boy. Such a sensible, stable and good-looking boy has...
Why don't you agree?
Old man Xiao was overjoyed after hearing Mrs. Zhao's words: "Thank you so much, sister. You can take this money, and your hard work cannot be in vain. I am away from home this time, and my return date has not yet been determined. It may take a long time, but I can't do nothing without saying anything. You can give me this money."
