Not only in the Western Regions, there is something in Gao Gugu’s words,
The Western Region is connected to the Xiongnu grassland in the north, Dahan in the east, Zhang Qian's destination Dayuezhi in the west, and snowy fields in the south.
But the Han Dynasty is now separated from the Western Regions by the Hexi Corridor controlled by the Huns. Even Hu Xiuwu and the Gao family were blocked by the Huns cavalry when they came to the Western Regions. If it weren't for Chen Duo, Hu Xiuwu would have been alone. Ran away alone.
As for the Dayue clan, they had even forgotten their national feud, and Zhang Qian failed to persuade them. What ability did Gao Gu have to mobilize them? The same is true for body poison, and there are people from the Samsara Sect above the snowfield. If he dares to go to the snowy field, the Samsara Sect dares to directly sacrifice him to the gods.
Then there's only one option left,
Xiongnu,
Gao Gu wanted to lure the Huns to the Western Regions?
Hu Xiuwu wanted to ask again, but Gao Gu didn't want to say anything more. Instead, he persuaded Hu Xiuwu:
"Sir, please take your sister to pack your things first. Since we have already negotiated with Prince Gumo, we can't let people wait for us."
What did the two of them have to pack? Most of their luggage was in the current Luo Fengtian, and the rest was buried by the ruins. Gao's reason was not unclear, it was obviously an excuse.
Hu Xiuwu's abdomen was cleared.
But Gao Gu began to talk about him, and he didn't want to make it clear yet, so Hu Xiuwu could only leave temporarily.
The two of them didn't need to pack it up, but the Gao family really had to pack it up and rescued dozens of people's luggage and tools. However, the goods that had been transported from the Central Plains with great difficulty were abandoned by Gao's order. , now that the situation is almost desperate, there is no need to waste any more energy on business matters.
Gao Gu did not plan to rebuild this house anymore. The old servant who helped him take care of the house was originally planned to be silenced by Gao Gu, but then he thought about it. Zeluo and Hu Xiuwu had a huge battle, which was so huge that half the city was occupied. Everyone could hear it, so it was useless to seal his mouth.
Besides, he didn't know the inside story, and he didn't see what happened afterwards. Letting him out might muddy the waters. It should be noted that not all people in the Western Region are hostile to Jing Jue, there are also a group of people who are willing to be Jing Jue's lackeys.
Anyway, they are not the ones used for sacrifices every year. Why should their wealth be affected by a group of untouchables?
Therefore, Gao Gu gave him a large severance package and asked him to leave on his own without saying anything. The old servant took the money and left with great gratitude.
After the Gao family had almost packed everything out of the ruins, Gao Lu arrived belatedly on his fast horse.
Hadili and Gao Lu came to Gao's house from Hadili's mansion almost at the same time, but Hadili could walk through the shadows faster than the fastest BMW, even though he made detours on the way. He killed the envoy of the country faster than Gao Lu.
Gao Lu came to Gao Gu's side in a hurry and asked excitedly:
"Uncle, I saw King Kucha's chariot when I came back. Is the matter resolved?"
"Um,"
Gao Gu snorted lightly, not looking particularly interested. He and Zeluo have known each other for many years. Although their motives were not pure when they first met, their tacit cooperation over the years has built Qiuci into one of the most powerful cities in the Western Region. A powerful country whose national power is second only to Jingjue.
Gao Gu still felt a little lonely after this fallout.
Gao Lu said with emotion: "It's a pity that our relationship with King Kucha has deteriorated this time. Uncle, should you please ease the relationship with King Kucha?"
Gao Gu was like a vicious wolf, suddenly turning his head to look at him, "What a pity? Why do you have such thoughts?"
Gao Lu was startled by Gao Gu: "Well, after all, this Yancheng was built by my uncle with great effort, and the relationship with King Qiuci was also managed by my uncle for many years. No, isn't it a pity?"
Gao Gu stretched out his hand and squeezed Gao Lu's shoulder hard. Gao Lu trembled in fright, but he didn't dare to break away from Gao Gu's hold.
Gao Gu said seriously:
"Lin Heng, remember, our mission is to lift the curse of our clan. We risked our lives and paid the price of shortened lifespan, not to come to the Western Regions to establish a good relationship with King Qiuci, nor because we are interested in what the Western Regions bring. Wealth, do you understand?”
"Don't lose sight of our original purpose because of the wealth brought by this trade route. These are just ways for us to find ways to relieve the curse in our clan."
"If Queen Jingjue hadn't rejected our request without any room for maneuver, what would it matter if I just helped her unify the Western Region?"
"As for whether she is good to the people in the Western Region, it has nothing to do with me."
Gao Gu's words were like a wake-up call, waking up Gao Lu. He finally understood why his uncle was so angry. He knelt down in front of Gao Gu in shame:
"I understand, uncle, my thoughts are biased. I was blinded by gold and silver and forgot our purpose. We must lift the curse in our clan at any cost!"
Gao Gu helped him up: "It's good that you understand. As for easing the relationship with King Qiuci you said, it will take time and effort to ease the relationship with him. We have big things going on and we don't have time."
After brushing the dust off Gao Lu's shoulders, Gao Gu looked at the junior he valued most and said happily:
"Go on, you go help A Yue and the others pack their luggage."
"Here."
······
After working for a long time, it was already bright. The huge battle between Hu Xiuwu and Zero had already attracted the attention of the whole city. Now there were countless pairs of eyes staring at the Gao family in the darkness.
The old servant disappeared just after leaving the Gao family.
Even Zeluo is followed by spies from other countries. Normally Zeluo would not compete with these minions, but today he happened to be in a bad mood. If the spies in the dark dare to take another look at him, they will be killed by him. He tortured his brains with Zhengyin, and his body fell limply in the dark.
After suffering a loss on Zero's side, other forces turned their attention back to the Gao family. This is why Gao Gu proposed to stay temporarily at Prince Gumo's mansion yesterday. He had expected this scene.
Buying a house is easy for Gao Gu, but it is not that simple to avoid those curious and exploratory eyes.
Prince Gumo's mansion can just meet Gao Gu's requirements. Gumo is also considered a powerful country in the Western Region. The future King Gumo will live in the mansion, not to mention that Prince Gumo's princess can also understand his mind. No one can do it. Lying in front of her naturally does not have the above-mentioned shortcomings.
A group of fifty or so good people from the Gao family marched toward Prince Gumo's mansion. Hu Xiuwu and Chen Duo also put on cloaks to cover their appearance to prevent others from recognizing them. .
The team went to Prince Gumo's mansion without any cover-up. The spies from other forces watched Gao Gumo and the others enter Prince Gumo's mansion, and Prince Gumo personally greeted them at the door.
After the spies passed the news back, the people behind the scenes were a little surprised and confused. As Zeluo's think tank, Gao Gu was considered a celebrity in Yancheng.
But he suddenly fell into the arms of Prince Gumo, which made people wonder what happened.
Who exactly fought against Zeluo in the early morning, was it Princess Gumo? Or has old aunt Mo Wang come here secretly?
And why are we fighting? Is it for the sake of Gao Gao?
What is even more interesting is that when the Gao family moved to Prince Gumo, the soldiers patrolling the streets of Qiuci did not hinder them. Even if they met in person, they treated them as invisible.
The ambiguous performance of the Kucha soldiers can't help but make people think about it.
Who won this fight? Zeluo has always been the strongest stranger in the Western Region. In the Western Region, no one can be his opponent when it comes to singles and solo play.
But if someone wins Zerona, the title of the strongest in the Western Region may be lost.
Too many doubts lingered in their hearts, tossing and turning, but they made one thing clear,
After this incident, Qiuci and Gumo are afraid that they will turn against each other.
Hey, it will be fun to watch from now on.
