Chapter 539: Gu Yuanming is gone, but three old men have appeared.
Chapter 539 With Gu Yuanming gone, three more old men have arrived.
"Haha------" Gu Yuanen couldn't help but burst out laughing. The way Old Man Lu addressed his little sister was absolutely hilarious. Could it be any longer?
"These people??"
Hearing the laughter, Vice Pavilion Master Lu finally realized who was behind Gu Qingyue. He didn't recognize any of them and didn't know who they were.
"This is my father, and these are my two older brothers," Gu Qingyue covered her mouth and chuckled. This old man was quite amusing; he wouldn't let her bow, but she insisted on bowing anyway.
"So it's Doctor Gu the Third..."
"Stop!" Old Feng said. "She is a descendant of General Gu, the head of our Ink Pavilion! This is the Second Young Master Gu I mentioned before."
Old Feng finally couldn't hold back and started introducing Gu Qingyue and Gu Changling's identities; he was absolutely thrilled!
Not only did the Second Young Master Gu not die, but he also returned safely.
Previously, Old Master Lu was recuperating and it was inconvenient to mention Gu Qingyue's matter, but now, it's time!
"What did you say? Old Feng, you've been doing bookkeeping all day, and you've gotten so confused. Isn't Second Young Master Gu...? Could it really be—"
Vice Pavilion Master Lu naturally heard what Elder Feng said, but his voice trembled so much that he didn't even know what he was saying.
Seeing that Old Feng nodded,
He raised his hand to push aside Old Feng beside him and strode over to Gu Changling's side.
"So alike! So alike! You look just like the old general! Me, you, all of you..."
The next moment, to everyone's surprise, Vice Pavilion Master Lu stepped forward and hugged Gu Changling's shoulders, choking back tears.
Gu Qingyue: ? ? ?
Everyone:? ? ?
Everyone remained rooted to the spot.
After a cup of tea, Gu Changling patted Vice Pavilion Master Lu on the shoulder, "Elder Lu, don't be sad. If my great-grandfather knew in the afterlife, he would also hope to see you in good health and that the Ink Pavilion will flourish."
Gu Qingyue pouted. Gu Changling is indeed Gu Changling.
Even though he had no memory of it, he could still speak eloquently. Just as his grandfather said, among the three sons, his father was the most intelligent and resourceful.
"Oh dear! I apologize for my rudeness, Young Master Gu," Vice Pavilion Master Lu finally came to his senses.
He solemnly clasped his hands in a salute to Gu Changling, saying, "I have failed General Gu's painstaking efforts, and I am ashamed."
General Gu was Gu Qingyue's great-grandfather. He was the one who saved Old Feng and appointed Lu Tianhua as the deputy pavilion master.
Lu Tianhua is a generous, righteous, upright, and kind person, and he has won the support of everyone in the Moge.
But time flies. He was once a young man not yet of age, but now he is old and frail. Due to his injury and the influence of a curse, everything in the pavilion has changed beyond recognition…
How can he not feel ashamed!
"Alright, let Miss Gu remove the curse from you first, then we can talk about other things," Old Master Feng said as he saw the group preparing for a long talk.
His biggest concern right now is Old Master Lu's health, and also because Gu Qingyue had said when she first arrived that they were in a hurry to get back to Lizhou and couldn't linger any longer.
"Hey, hey!" Vice Pavilion Master Lu's beard trembled with excitement, "Little Divine Doctor Gu, third..."
"Just call me Qingyue, I'll call you Old Lu," Gu Qingyue said, not wanting to hear such a long title again, she quickly waved her hand, not wanting to see this old man Lu bowing back and forth.
"Hey, hey!" Old Lu laughed so hard his eyes disappeared.
Old Feng, standing beside him, rubbed his forehead and asked, "Can't you say anything else?"
"Yes! Yes!"
Gu Qingyue: ......
After the Heart-Eating Gu was expelled, Old Master Lu's face turned pale.
However, he was still in good spirits. After all, he was a martial artist. Even though he lost a lot of blood while expelling the Gu, he still looked much better than Qin Shi was at the time.
"Many thanks to Gu Xiao--Qingyue for your great kindness. You are not only a great benefactor to this old man, but also a great benefactor to the Mo Pavilion!" Vice Pavilion Master Lu's eyes shone brightly, and he could not hide his joy.
He paused, then continued, "I wonder how long Young Master Gu, Qingyue, and the other young masters plan to stay in Meng County? I have many things I'd like to discuss with you all..."
"Stop!"
Old Feng was truly exasperated. "They have urgent business to attend to back in Lizhou. If your matter isn't urgent, could we wait until you're feeling better?"
"Why aren't you in a hurry? You------" Old Lu glared at Old Feng, displeased, when he saw Old Feng stopping him from having a heart-to-heart talk with Young Master Gu and the others.
However, before he could say the next sentence, a servant called out from behind the crowd, "Mr. Lu, Doctor Chai has returned."
"Alright, please come in," Vice Pavilion Master Lu continued, his eyes crinkling with laughter, clearly in an exceptionally good mood.
"Old Lu, you're not following the doctor's orders again? I could hear your voice from outside," a slightly aged voice said, with a hint of mockery.
"It's all because of that old man Feng, who keeps stopping me from talking to Young Master Gu."
Before the old man even entered, Vice Pavilion Master Lu began to complain.
Old Feng rolled his eyes. "Who stopped them? Young Master Gu and the others have matters to attend to and need to return to Lizhou as soon as possible..."
"Who is Young Master Gu?" The old man finally appeared at the door.
Wow! A familiar face! Gu Qingyue raised an eyebrow as soon as she saw him.
Isn't this the 'Wine Doctor' who used to sell medicinal herbs outside Liujintang?
Could he really be a doctor? Doctor Chai?
"Ha-----it's good to meet you again, girl!"
Doctor Chai naturally noticed the only woman in the crowd with beautiful features.
The woman was slender and graceful, and she was curiously looking him over. He recognized her after only a few glances.
"Old man, aren't you a wine doctor? Why aren't you selling wine, but practicing medicine?" Gu Qingyue teased. Although she was wearing a half-face mask at the time, it was not surprising that a skilled doctor could easily recognize her.
Everyone looked at each other.
When did these two meet?
By the time we got back to the inn, the lanterns were already lit.
Gu Qingyue looked at the three old men who had suddenly appeared in front of her, and she felt exhausted.
At the Feng residence, despite much persuasion, Old Man Lu and Doctor Chai insisted on going to Lizhou with Gu Qingyue, saying it was to see her off.
Since the two old men wanted to come along, Old Feng also packed himself up and followed without any hesitation.
So, the next day, the group heading to Lizhou was missing Gu Yuanming and had three more old men.
Gu Yuanming went to meet up with the delegation and led them to Lizhou.
The three old men chatted and laughed all the way in the carriage, seeing off Gu Qingyue who was riding a horse outside.
Five days later, the group finally arrived outside Lizhou City.
Looking at the towering and majestic city walls of Lizhou, Gu Qingyue was excited.
"I'm finally back," Gu Qingyue said with a smile, opening her arms wide to feel the gentle breeze outside Lizhou City.
"Junior sister!"
A black horse galloped out from the city gate, and a young man sat upright on it. Who else could it be but Liu Feng?
He received the news early and came to the city gate to wait, waiting from early morning until almost sunset.
I finally met my junior sister.
Of course, it wasn't him who recognized her; he recognized the twin willow-leaf swords at Gu Qingyue's waist.
