Ghosts come to the door: entangle the little lady

Chapter 156 The Shock of the Great Families

Gu Lingling and Gu Chengcheng didn't return to Gu's Mansion until the city gate was closed. Because it was an extraordinary period, a notice had been posted that the Xiangxi city gate was locked two hours earlier, so when they returned to Gu's Mansion, they could just Catch up with dinner.

Today's atmosphere is still a bit silent and tense, because Mrs. Gu has been counting the days with all her heart since Gu Wanqing left, and when the day when Gu Wanqing should return to the city arrives, she still disappears. She is so worried that her old illness has relapsed, like crazy Crazy and epileptic, she went to Xixi Wetland to find her daughter.

Gu Yuling tried to persuade her with good words, one day or two was still useful, but the third day was useless, so she had to feed her mother soothing soup to make her fall asleep.

At this time, in the hall, except for the mother, everyone else was there.

"Eldest Young Master~Second Young Master~"

Gu Qiong heard the voice of greeting from the servants, raised her head, looked behind the two of them unconsciously, still did not see the little figure, lowered her eyes in great disappointment, and said: "You two are back, sit down and eat. "

"Yes, father."

Gu Tuling and Gu Tucheng sat down one by one, and the maid behind them immediately brought two bowls of rice and placed them in front of them.

"You all go down..." Gu Lingling said suddenly.

Although they didn't name them, the maids serving the master's meal naturally knew that they were talking about them, so they blessed themselves and said in unison: "Yes~"

Gu Qiong raised her eyebrows and glanced at Gu Tuling. Normally, when the eldest son wanted to talk about family affairs, he would let others go down. He continued to eat slowly, waiting for Gu Tuling to speak.

Although the Gu family has a rule of not talking when eating, there are sometimes exceptions.

"My sister will be back in a few days, she's safe and well." Gu Lingling said slowly.

When everyone present heard the news, they all looked at Gu Yuling, but they had different expressions.

Gu Qiong only glanced at it, and felt relieved, the previous worries were no longer in her eyes.

Gu Yuyu, on the other hand, glanced at her elder brother in surprise, but seeing her elder brother looking at her, she lowered her head a little guilty, and continued to eat, but her whole mind was not on eating, her thoughts drifted outside, and she kept asking, "Why?" possible!How could it be possible to come back!impossible!
Jiang looked at her daughter's expression, and it fell into her eyes one by one. She was a little worried that her daughter would do something wrong and would be obsessed. She was finally relieved that the eldest lady came back safely, and the crime was less serious. .

And Wutong and Bai Xiaosheng both showed joy, and they were finally coming back, although it was a few days later than the estimated time, as long as they came back safely.

"Is the news accurate?" Gu Qiong asked a little worriedly.

"Well, to be sure, the disciple of the great elder of the Leng family met at the gate of the city today, so take me with you." Gu Yuling replied.

"After dinner, tell your mother that if you drink too much Anshen soup, your mind will easily get confused." Gu Qiong said helplessly. Son's idea.

"Father, don't worry." Gu Lingling replied with a guilty expression.

During this meal, everyone's appetite improved unknowingly, and they ate all the food for a while. In the past few days, almost every dish was finished with only a few chopsticks.

After the meal, Gu Yuling told Gu Yucheng: "Go to your mother and have a good talk with her, lest you think we are coaxing her again."

"But mother listens to elder brother even more..." Gu Yucheng said hesitantly.

Gu Lingling looked at his father's study and said, "You can tell some jokes to make mother happy, and I'll come later."

Seeing the direction of elder brother's gaze, Gu Jucheng thought of what Bai Ri Leng Po said, and understood what elder brother meant, so he responded and walked towards his mother's yard.

Gu Tuling saw Gu Tucheng leaving, so she went to her father's study.

Not far behind, Gu Yuyu looked at the direction Gu Yuling was going away, and clenched her hands tightly. The sharp nails were embedded in the soft palm, and there were bloodshots faintly, but she still didn't know it, with a dignified and resentful expression on her face.

"Miss..." Zi Yan saw that Gu Yuyu's expression was a little scary, she couldn't help being a little scared, and called out softly.

"Go to Xiangwang Mansion and make an appointment with Meng Canghai to drink tea at the teahouse tomorrow morning." Gu Yuyu was called, and when she recovered, she was dignified, elegant, and full of ladylike appearance, and said softly.

"Yes, miss~" Zi Yan lowered her head and replied.

In Gu Qiong's study.

Gu Qiong was reading the news sent by the people below, and was frowning, but she didn't want to hear Gu Lingling's voice.

"Father, can I come in?" Gu Lingling knocked on the door and asked.

"Come in..." Gu Qiong put the news aside and said.

As soon as Gu Tuling came in, he saw that his father's expression was not very good. He saw a piece of paper in his hand, guessed that it might be some bad news, and asked, "Father, what happened?"

Gu Qiong handed the paper to Gu Tuling and said, "You can read it yourself."

Gu Lingling glanced at the ten lines, quickly read it, frowned, and said, "The exchange meeting is held in advance, why is this? Is it because the alarm bells are ringing?"

Gu Qiong nodded and said: "Well, there are also many visions in other places. The corpses suddenly rioted, ghosts appeared, and endangered the people. Therefore, in just a few days, branches in various places have held meetings and decided to hold exchanges in advance. General assembly, listen to our Xiangxi headquarters to come up with a solution."

When the alarm bell sounded suddenly, the patriarchs of their aristocratic families also expected that this peaceful day would be broken, and the situation would turn into a storm, but they didn't expect it to change so quickly, and abnormalities occurred everywhere. thing.

"Father, I was just about to tell you about the Xixi Wetland." Gu Yuling nodded and said, knowing that the matter was a bit serious, but he didn't know what kind of thing came out of the Xixi Wetland, and it would be so widely involved. There is complicity.

"Huh? Do you know what happened there?" During the meal earlier, Gu Tuling didn't say much. He only said that Gu Tujin would be back in a few days, so Gu Qiong didn't ask too much. At this time, Gu Tuling came here to talk about the Xixi Wetland. thing, a little surprised.

Gu Lingling looked at his father, sighed, and said with a sad expression: "On this trip, five people survived from there, and the others died."

Gu Qiong raised her eyebrows, with a look of shock on her face, and said in disbelief: "Say it again!"

"I mean, only five disciples from the four great families came out this time. The third brother of the Leng family, my sister and Gu Qin, none of the others came out." Gu Lingling said with a sad expression.

Gu Qiong suddenly sat on the grand master's chair in shock. She originally thought that the alarm bell was ringing and that Xixi Wetland was suppressed by a large formation. No matter how poor the disciples of the major families who went to practice this time, they could survive until the moment when they came out. Unexpectedly, they all... …

Those young disciples are all very talented disciples of the Gu family. It takes a lot of manpower, material and financial resources to cultivate an excellent warlock. With the only son of the Second Elder, I'm afraid he won't be able to bear it...

"Do other families know?" Gu Qiong asked weakly, holding his forehead.

"The third brother of the Leng family has gone to inform you." Gu Yuling replied.

"Oh? But the Lengpo Third Senior Brother?" Gu Qiong was very sensitive to the members of the Leng family and asked.

"Yes, Tucheng was there at the time, and they didn't make things difficult for him..." Gu Tuling said flatly.

"I'm afraid that Leng Po, the three senior brothers, is the most sensible and open-minded..." Gu Qiong praised him, but as if thinking of something, he frowned and asked, "Then why didn't Tu Jin come back with them?" ? Did something happen to her?"

Gu Tuling made a comforting gesture and said, "According to what Leng Po said, Gu Qin was seriously injured, and Tu Jin stayed to take care of him, so he came back a few days later."

"Gu Qin? But that young man who was born of a horse-raising maidservant, but is extremely talented?" Gu Qiong asked.

"Well, Dad has a pretty good memory. You were the one who caught the young man's attention. After this experience, the son also entrusted him to take care of Mujin secretly..." Gu Yuling smiled and replied.

"Well, he is a very good young man. When they come back, let Gu Qin follow Tan Jin." Gu Qiong ordered.

"Yes~ Dad." After hearing this, Gu Yuling was not at all surprised by her father's arrangement, because Gu Yujin was born at a special time, her parents had put in all of their efforts to gather all the people who would be beneficial to her younger sister to surround her In the future, if the prophecy of the wizard of the Shen family is really fulfilled, at least he can fight for it, so as not to be killed by the Shen family.

After Gu Qiong finished speaking, she took a fancy to the piece of paper on the desk, and said in a low voice for a while, "You can take Tan Cheng, Tan Jin, and Tan Yu to this exchange conference, so that Tan Jin can see the world and listen more. , learn more about the world in the ghost realm.”

"Yes, dad~" Gu Lingling replied.

"For specific matters, let's talk about it when Mu Jin comes back." Gu Qiong said slowly.

"Yes, Dad~ about those disciples..." Gu Lingling asked hesitantly.

"You go to the elder hall." Gu Qiong said very weakly.

Gu Tuling cupped her hands and left.

Leng Po, Leng Xiu, and Leng Tang acted separately. Leng Po sent Leng Xiu to Mo's house to report the funeral, he went to Shen's house, and at the same time inquired whether Shen Nan was back. As for Leng Tang, he went back to Leng's house.

Overnight, all the parents and families of the unfortunately deceased disciple knew about the unfortunate disappearance, and there was a burst of grief immediately, and sad cries came from all over Xiangxi City.

Leng Po didn't go to Shenjiazhuang, but went to Shen's elders' hall instead. He knew that Shen Nan was not dead, so he wanted to report a funeral, so he naturally went to the elders' hall.

He wasn't sure if those Shen family disciples were all dead, but from Leng Xiu and Leng Tang's descriptions, they were either dead, or Shen Nan could control them. According to the sorcery practiced by Shen Nan, it might be more ominous than good. , This time I went here, just to bring this news to you.
