Chapter 354 Family Banquet (Ask for a Monthly Pass)

“patriarch…”

Old Master fell into a brief thought when he heard these two words, and then he laughed , asked easily: “Isn’t this your thing?”

Gu Nanfeng said solemnly: “You should understand what I mean, what I want is not a false name.”

“Understood. Of course I understand.”

Gu Qilin asked leisurely: “Just, do you understand what I mean? I am not a patriarch, and the new school Gu Lushen is not a patriarch, even if there is no patriarch, After the separation, the Gu family is still the first family in Nagano, why?”

This question.

Gu Nanfeng was startled.

“Because patriarch…has always been just a false name.”

The Old Master said calmly, “The reason why Gu Changzhi is patriarch is just because…he is Gu Changzhi.”

>

“Eight years ago, many people fell in Nagano… in order to send you to Beizhou.”

There was a seriousness in the Old Master’s voice, “If it weren’t for the You can become a ‘patriarch’, what are these people’s sacrifices for?”

“The name of patriarch does not need my approval, nor the approval of the other side… As long as you are strong enough, If you are strong enough, you are the patriarch of the Gu family.”

“And…”

“You seem to have misunderstood me… I always feel that I chose because of fear of war. Back off…”

Gu Qilin narrowed his eyes and flicked the soot, “On the battlefield, this kind of behavior is called desertion. If there is destined to be a battle between the old and the new factions, then I It must be the one who fought to the end, I will never compromise, never back down, and even more impossible…to be a deserter.”

“The reason why the old and new factions can still be ‘peaceful’ is because Neither side is sure of winning.”

“Sixty years ago, when I went north to the fort to fight the disaster, I was still a high-spirited and vigorous young man. Just like you, I have great ambitions. I believe that I can change the situation of the entire war with one person.”

Gu Nanfeng was stunned.

“But now I’m old.”

Old Master said softly, “If you have the ability, hold the sword of victory and bring true peace to the Gu family… Then please.”

The world always thinks that the name of authority is the sword of eternal victory.

But in fact, the opposite is true.

Because of the long sword in hand, Fang has the name of awe in the world.

Backing up, compromising, are just a kind of accumulation… When the explosion only means destruction, then the roar is also an invalid cry.

Gu Nanfeng suddenly understood what Old Master had done over the years, what it meant, whether he sent himself out of Nagano or refused to let him return… he was waiting for his own growth.

And here it is.

Gu Nanfeng was rather silent.

He looked at the Old Master, “You…will you let me give it a go?”

“If you don’t, will you give up?” The Old Master calmly said: “If you were me 60 years ago, if the negotiation failed, I would have carried the energy cannon and smashed them to pieces.”

Gu Nanfeng laughed, “The source cannon is outdated…now the Beizhou army has more powerful weapons.”

“Back to the point.”

He gently took a deep breath, said: “If you are willing to support me, I will plan to collect the power scattered by the family… This is not a short-term process, and a great conflict may break out.”

Words Very elegant.

In fact, it is “confluence”.

The Gu family is no longer divided into the new school and the old school!

The old man put his hands on his elbows and listened quietly, “What are you going to do?”

Gu Nanfeng said, “From the perspective of the greatest success rate… I will start to draw five The other three of you.”

Old Master squinted his eyes: “But this will expand the battle, and if a conflict breaks out, the whole of Nagano will be pulled into the water.”

“So…need Greater power, external power.”

Gu Qilin was silent for a while.

“You mean allies other than Nagano… Huaqi?”

“Maybe there are more allies.” Gu Nanfeng said calmly, “I know you For many years, the five members have maintained a delicate balance… The battle in Nagano does not involve the forces in Nagano. Everyone maintains a balance and coexistence. Once external forces are involved, the situation will become more and more complicated. The rules made by everyone will also be broken.”

Old Master nodded, “This is… a taboo!”

Gu Nanfeng suddenly asked: “If you agree with the enemy, Fighting with bare hands, and the opponent pulled out a knife, what should you do?”

“…”

The old man narrowed his eyes, he understood what the grandnephew meant.

“I will take out the energy cannon, although you just said… this thing is outdated, but it’s really useful for heads-up.” The Old Master said in a deep voice, “What do you mean, Someone has broken the rules?”

“Actually, it’s not hard to guess.”

Gu Nanfeng said seriously: “Just imagine, not long ago, the two [Apostles] joined forces Entering the metropolitan area, if there is no inspiration from the Divine Throne behind it… How dare they break the balance between continents? The Tower of Origin has been watching Qingzhong for many years, if they don’t get the wind, how can they act so recklessly?”

And the one most closely related to Kiyozuka.

It’s Nagano, the Gu family.

“Before the [Apostle] invasion case broke out, Master Chino said to me… She sensed that someone was watching Qing Zuka, and after using the Divination Technique, she predicted that the Metropolitan area would be ominous, and she would be in a relationship with other continents.

It may be that the [Apostle] is about to take action.”

Gu Nanfeng said slowly, “So… I chose to leave Beizhou and set off to resolve the situation.”

“And when I really went back to Eastern Continent and learned about the Awakening Act, I was even more certain… The advancement of this Act will definitely split Eastern Continent.” Gu Nanfeng said solemnly: “So… I have to stop the Act. Passed.”

The old man’s voice was also low: “Where is the evidence?”

“There is no evidence.”

Gu Nanfeng shook the head and said: “If If you don’t believe it…then even if you find evidence, it’s useless.”

“You have to know…on the matter of the bill, Nagano’s attitude has always been pertinent. Those of the Gu family’s new faction, from They have not publicly expressed positive opinions in support of the bill.” Gu Qilin frowned, “If they have connections with other continents, they only need strong support.”

“If you know that the end has been It’s destined, why do you need to make a statement?”

Gu Nanfeng just chuckled and said, “You know, if Zhao Xi changes his mind, the bill has already been implemented. Nagano’s silence is the best help.”

The Old Master was lost in thought.

Yes.

If the new faction showed the slightest interest in the progress of the bill, he would have noticed.

And then, the old school would have been on guard.

But there was no reaction at all… Either it was completely irrelevant, or it was certain that the ending would develop in the direction that I expected.

“If what you said is true…”

Old Master lowered his eyes slightly and said, “Then war is indeed inevitable.”

When The new faction of the Gu family colluded with other continents.

So no matter what the situation is in the Qing Tomb…

“That’s why I desperately want to see you.”

Gu Nanfeng took a deep breath and said, “After leaving Nagano for eight years, no matter which side of the Gu family, will Not to recognize my ‘patriarch’ identity, to advance the negotiation between Nagano and Dato, with my strength, no matter how much I appeal, I will not get support.”

“The negotiation… It’s as simple as that.”

Old Master shook his head again, “The old school today is only half a family, and can’t represent Nagano.”

“Actually, I thought about this… “

Gu Nanfeng said: “If Nagano is willing to negotiate with Dato, then the problem is likely to be resolved. But even if the negotiation cannot proceed, I only need the bill to be reviewed and rejected, and Nagano will continue to maintain Neutral.”

“…”

The Old Master looked deeply at his grandnephew.

“Not long ago, before you came back, Gu Lushen talked to me once.”

“The content of the conversation was very simple…”

“He is willing to join forces to restore the Gu family as a whole, and then the old and new factions will transfer power… Although it is difficult to achieve this, this form of convergence will inevitably have many gaps, but at least it is a nominal ‘unity.’ ”

Judging from the current situation in Nagano, the divided Gu family has gradually shown signs of decline.

Only by joining forces can we continue to hold the position of No. 1 in Nagano.

In this situation, even nominal unity is enough to form a “deterrent” to the other four!

Especially…the Bai Family!

For the old school that has been struggling for eight years, such a proposal is nothing short of a great deed.

“It’s just that Gu Lushen has a request.”

The Old Master laughed and said, “He asked the Gu family to abolish the ‘patriarch system’.”

Auditor Gu Shen, his pupils contracted slightly.

“And Gu Lushen gave a…very reasonable explanation. Because of the battle of the [Apostles] in the metropolitan area, the Central Federation reconfirmed the survival status of Gu Changzhi in Qingzhong. If Gu Changzhi is still alive , then the name ‘patriarch’ set by the mausoleums is absurd and ridiculous, except for Gu Changzhi, no one is qualified to be a patriarch in the true sense of the Gu family.”

On this point, Gu Nanfeng also identify.

Even if he has reached a very high level of cultivation in the North Continent… he can’t compare with the former.

“And if Mr. Gu Changzhi doesn’t live like the world expects…then the existence of the ‘patriarch’ is meaningless. Because the ‘fire’ in the clear tomb will be searched again. Master.”

Hearing this, Gu Nanfeng bowed his head silently.

He understood what Gu Lushen meant.

It’s really hard to pick out…reasons.

“I rejected him.”

Old Master looked at his grandnephew’s expression and spoke softly.

Rejected… Gu Shen’s eyes showed some surprise.

At this juncture… it takes a lot of courage to refuse to join forces.

Gu Nanfeng raised his head hesitantly: “Why…why?”

“nodded, shaking his head, it’s just a very simple thing…do you need a reason?”

Old Master indifferently said: “As for the name of ‘patriarch’, I know you used to be very indifferent, once wanted to throw it away, the farther away the better… and now you want to hold on to it, wishing the entire Snow Forbidden City knew about it This is what belongs to you.”

“Humans are such a species, I used to be just like you.”

“So…I’m glad. You’re back this time. , in order to take back what belongs to you.”

Gu Qilin stood up, patted Gu Nanfeng’s shoulder, and said, “Here is a ‘gift’…I left it to you. Let’s take a look.”

After getting up, he took out a not-thick document bag and placed it in front of Gu Nanfeng.

The old man leaves the box.

Before passing by Gu Shen, he spoke softly and asked with a smile, “Are you full?”

Gu Shen was stunned, and quickly wiped his mouth.

Old Master nodded and said: “Since you’re full… come out with me.”

……

The top floor of the Jiangbei Hotel.

The wind is a bit strong.

Thin snow is scattered in the air, and there are ice chips falling in the wind. If you breathe a little harder, a white mist will come out.

Old Master is standing on the top floor, overlooking the Snow Forbidden City in the distance, the old building in row upon row, the light outlines a quiet and peaceful picture…

“The first time Don’t be nervous when we meet.”

Gu Qilin spoke softly, trying to make his voice sound gentle.

It’s just the Old Master’s aura and the eyes full of killing intent, it’s really hard not to be nervous.

“The words just now…I will forget.” Gu Shen sighed softly and said, “The reason why you keep inviting me to this meal…Actually, I haven’t figured it out yet.”

Gu Qilin raised his eyebrows.

He said sincerely: “Actually, when I was eating earlier… I sounded transmission to Gu Nanfeng and asked him to say something, but he refused, so this meal was very…”

p>

“Serious.” Gu Shen thought for a while and said the word for him.

“Um…” The Old Master nodded.

The scene froze again.

Gu Shen didn’t expect … It turns out that at the dinner table, it was not just me who wanted to say something.

“These words, don’t forget, you can remember them, just don’t pass them on.”

Gu Qilin spoke again and said, “Actually, it’s not a secret, those of the Gu family. The whole of Nagano knows about this shit…and about the ‘Bright City’ that Nanfeng took the initiative to say, your acting is a bit clumsy.”

Gu Shen blinked.

Isn’t it?

My acting skills…haven’t missed it yet.

“Brother Feng told me…you want to see me, not because I have a close relationship with Huazhi, nor because I am a successor of Divination Technique…” Gu Shen asked seriously: ” If it was just an ordinary meal, I wouldn’t think too much. It’s just that after today’s meal, I know so much news that I can’t sleep or sleep.”

“Really?” Old Master said with a smile: “I see that you eat deliciously, and you were reluctant to leave just now.”

Gu Shen asked cautiously: “Or, you don’t care about my status… Just wanted to tell those people out there that you and I met and talked.”

The wind was blowing on the top floor.

There are also many wind pupils.

“How dare you look directly at me with those eyes?” Old Master indifferently said: “Those are all tricks played by juniors… Do I need to get these eyes? A genius from the last Gu family. Compared to…you, it’s a little worse.”

Gu Shen choked.

“If you have to ask why…”

Gu Qilin said mildly with a smile: “The surname is Gu, I think you are more pleasing to the eye, so I came to treat you to a meal This family dinner.”
