Immortal Demon Emperor in the city

Chapter 308 The First Step

next morning
Suburbs of Jiangzhou
As one of the three major families in Jiangzhou in the past, the Gu family, although the scenery in the early years is no longer there, but there is still some heritage, and the assets are naturally quite strong. At least a few buildings in Jiangzhou are still in its industry under.

For example, the old community in front of Gu Jing and Ning Dong.

They came under the most dilapidated building in the community, looked up, felt the cool air, and fell silent.

On the top of the building at the end of their line of sight, there is an apartment. It seems to have been there for many years. The outside is covered with moss, and the white of the wall has become yellow and peeling, like a long-abandoned apartment. Unfinished building.

The entrance of the corridor below is also dilapidated, the dark corridor is full of greasy smell, and the silence is terrible, it can be compared with the buildings in ghost movies.

If it weren't for daytime, Gu Jing would not dare to come in.

After the two entered the corridor, they first carefully walked across the floor with stagnant water, then avoided the stairs that no one cleaned, and also avoided the piles of garbage. destination.

They stood at the stairs on the fifth floor, gasping for breath, feeling uneasy, wondering if the top would be as chaotic as the bottom, but as soon as they looked over, their minds were immediately filled with surprise.

I saw that the door of the room was very clean and tidy, completely like a pure land.

Whether it is the blanket outside the anti-theft door or the ground, they are all spotlessly cleaned. Compared with other dirty places, they are two worlds, with a strong sense of disobedience.

Gu Jing smiled and nodded at Ning Dong, they knew that this was their destination, so suppressing their excitement and apprehension, they walked to the door, and boldly pressed the doorbell.

The buttons seem to have not been pressed for many years, and they are already rusted. If it weren't for Ning Dong's strength, it would take some effort to press them down.

"Ding dong."

The moment the button was pressed, a crisp sound resounded, as if after a long time, it echoed in the corridor again.

But inside the door, there was no movement.

The two stood outside the door and looked at each other for a moment, not sure if there was anyone in the room.

At this time, Gu Jing had a bold idea, she summoned up the courage to gently push the anti-theft door, and as expected, the door opened immediately!
"Crack."

There was an ear-piercing sound, and almost the moment the door opened, the two were attracted by the scene inside.

The interior of the house is very bleak, even the light is light and pitiful, simple decoration, simple furniture, simple house layout, everything seems to be very simple.

This place is not like a person's home at all, but a hotel where you can leave as you say.

But the owner of this house has lived here for 20 years!
What kind of person who has no desires or desires, can live here for so many years swallowing his anger?

Gu Jing and Ning Dong looked at each other, strode into the house, and closed the door behind them.

They don't think it's so abrupt, after all, the person in the room has a level [-] cultivation, and is a genuine true martial arts master!

They came to visit him, he must have known about it long ago, otherwise how could the door be reserved in advance by such a coincidence?
The two walked into the house, and saw an old man on the balcony, watering the flowers with a kettle.

The flowers are well maintained by him. Although there are no rare varieties, almost all of them are in the stage of blooming and full of vigor.

Turning his gaze to the old man, he saw that the old man was covered with white hair and his face was covered with age spots, he looked really old.

He also wore a faded blue vest on the upper body, an old-fashioned belt and work pants underneath, and sandals on the feet of a pair of black cotton socks.

On the whole, it is quite simple.

Just like that, the old man bent his back and concentrated on watering the flowers, as if he didn't notice anyone entering the house at all.

But then, an almost indifferent questioning sound came from his mouth.

"Xiao Jing, why are you here?"

In this voice, there is an indifference that rejects people thousands of miles away, which makes Gu Jing very uncomfortable, but she has already guessed that the other party will be like this, so she has no intention of shrinking back, and immediately bites the bullet and cups her fists , respectfully said to the old man.

"Xiao Jing came here to invite the adults to come out of the mountain, and then fight for a living space for my veins!"

Hearing this sentence, the old man's bending over to water the flowers suddenly stopped, but the stagnation lasted only a few seconds, and then he continued his work of watering the flowers.

"I said earlier that I will no longer participate in the battle between these two. As long as he still leaves us with a way to survive, what can we do if our line is the main line?"

Gu Jing was not reconciled, she pursed her bright red lips, and argued hard.

"But what if they don't give him a way out?"

"Once the abolition of the main line takes effect this time, we will definitely become vassals of their line. From now on, people in the whole line will live a life of being dependent on others!"

"In the past 20 years, our number has been squeezed by him. Except for some old, weak, sick and disabled, the remaining young and strong people will either be expelled from the family with excuses by him, or they will be imprisoned directly. If you don’t resist, there is really no hope at all!”

"You are the person with the most right to speak in our lineage, you should stand up and uphold justice for us!"

Ning Dong on the side was shocked, and looked at the lady in surprise. He never thought that the lady would dare to talk to adults like this...

You know, the seniority of the person in front of him, even the current Patriarch of the Gu family has to be called uncle.

But Miss is talking to him like this, it is too bold.

Even if this was the idea given to them by the guy named Yinmian, it was still a little too dangerous.

The old man was also a little bit surprised, obviously he didn't expect that there were such people in his lineage, he was startled for a moment, and then he opened his mouth with a marked change in attitude.

"So, what do you want?"

Gu Jing took a deep breath, her face was extremely serious, she really used all the courage in her life today, but now that she has reached this point, there is no turning back.

Thinking of this, her gaze became firm and steady, and she immediately bowed respectfully to the old man.

"If your lord insists on not showing up, then I hope to give me "that thing"!"

Hearing this, the old man shrank his pupils obviously, then put down the kettle in his hand, finally faced the two of them directly, and sighed.

"This thing should belong to you. When your father entrusted it to me, we already guessed that you would take it back, but we didn't expect that this day would come so early..."

With his hands behind his back, he looked at Gu Jing carefully, and then said.

"It seems that it's time for life to be at stake..."

"Others treat me like a fish, and I will slash my sword!"

The girl's categorical words finally shook the old man's cold heart. Looking at Gu Jing's firm eyes, he was quite shocked.

He suddenly realized that it seemed that this was the first time he had truly noticed this little girl.

It turned out that there were such people in my veins.

It turns out that there is still hope in the veins!
After 20 years, the old man was finally excited again. His eyes were burning, and he rarely asked in a gentle tone.

"Who taught you that?"

"A benefactor." Gu Jing said.

"benefactor……"

The old man slowly moved his gaze out of the window, looked at the withered trees outside the window, and muttered to himself, not knowing what he was thinking.

Then he turned his head, looked at Gu Jing and Ning Dong, and asked in a low voice.

"Take it if you want..."

"The future is up to you young people to control..."

"It's just that I hope that our lineage will not perish in the end..."

"After all, they are all from the Gu family..."

Gu Jing nodded solemnly, and then sighed deeply in her heart.

According to Yinmian's request, she finally completed the first step.

And the second step is the most critical...
