Gu Yucheng's cultivation level was banned and he was imprisoned in Xue Mansion for more than a month. He simply asked for a copy from Niu Youde, otherwise Gu Yucheng's mind and body would have been dulled long ago.
Niu Youde and Xue Sushang each had their own worries recently, but they didn't bother Gu Yucheng. Gu Yucheng was also happy to be at ease.
The only person Niu Youde can contact is Xue Sushang.
However, during this period of time, Xue Sushang almost stayed behind closed doors. Even though Niu Youde felt the undercurrent surging, he had no power to rely on and was helpless for a while.
Because he was worried about being expelled from the Xue Mansion, Niu Youde had no time to practice and walked around.
Gu Yucheng was thinking over and over again in his hands when his thoughts were interrupted by the footsteps of Niu Youde walking around the courtyard. Gu Yucheng looked at Niu Youde outside the window: "Brother Niu...why is your face so sad?"
Niu Youde frowned and saw Gu Yucheng's free and easy expression in the window, quite contented with himself. He asked in confusion, "Every time I see you in the past few days, you always look contented. Are you not worried about the situation at all? - As far as I know, only those who know everything can be as carefree as you."
Gu Yucheng shook his head, "If I really didn't care about what happened in the outside world, I would have gone deep into the documents and wouldn't have heard Brother Niu's footsteps at all. I was just waiting."
Niu Youde asked doubtfully, "What are you waiting for?"
Gu Yucheng stood up, "I used to be a timid person, and now I am very cautious. - But I understand a truth, treat unknown things like a duel between swordsmen. Except for the goal in my heart, I will not waver at all. No. Until you can’t change anything, all you can do is wait.”
Gu Yucheng will put down "My cultivation level has been banned. Although I don't know how to leave Xuecheng and enter the demon country, at least I will not mess up my position. So besides peace of mind, what else can I do?"
Niu Youde heard this and smiled mockingly. In terms of his conscious mind, he was inferior to Gu Yucheng by a huge margin.
When Niu Youde looked at Gu Yucheng again, he saw Gu Yucheng looking towards the courtyard door.
Niu Youde followed his gaze suspiciously, but saw nothing.
At this time, Liang Yi walked into the courtyard and looked at Gu Yucheng, feeling full of surprise.
Liang Yi was sure that Gu Yucheng's cultivation level was banned, but Gu Yucheng could actually feel it. ——Although he did not hide his aura.
Liang Yi's interest suddenly shifted to Gu Yucheng and asked, "Boy, can you feel me?"
Gu Yucheng knew that Liang Yi was Xue Sushang's eldest brother, so he was not very nervous and replied, "Of course!"
Liang Yi looked at Niu Youde and Gu Yucheng from left to right, and suddenly he came to the middle of them and explained his purpose, "In ten days, the city lord will expel you."
Niu Youde looked unnatural. Gu Yucheng asked directly, "Before you let me go, will you undo the seal in my body?"
Liang Yi raised his eyebrows, "Oh? Not necessarily, it depends on your performance."
Gu Yucheng looked questioning, "Performance? If I can perform, that's fine, but now that my cultivation level has been banned, how can I perform?"
Liang Yi laughed loudly when he heard this, "It's simple! - I, oh no, it's the city lord who expels you all. I actually plan to conduct a trial."
Gu Yucheng and Niu Youde looked at Liang Yi at the same time, Liang Yi smiled, "The biggest problem in Xuecheng now is the blending of old and new blood.
In the past, there was a large population circulating here, and the old monks could not make things too difficult for the new monks. But since the world was divided into three parts and Xuecheng was established, the number of new monks was far less than before, and the old households particularly excluded the new monks.
But Xuecheng cannot become a dead city, or in other words, Xuecheng cannot just live under the old household. "
Gu Yucheng's eyes widened. If he had never dealt with the problem on Bei Shang Street, Gu Yucheng might not have understood the meaning. But now, Gu Yucheng already knew what Liang Yi wanted to do.
Liang Yi looked at Gu Yucheng's satisfied expression and was particularly optimistic about Gu Yucheng.
Niu Youde was still thinking, and Gu Yucheng asked, "So, the city lord actually wants us Xue Mansion monks to compete with the old Xuecheng residents to form two checks and balances?"
Liang Yi glanced at Gu Yucheng's hand
On the other side, he laughed and said, "No wonder you can see it so clearly."
Liang Yi nodded, "To be precise, it's a battle between the old and the new. The winner will enter the Xue Mansion and enjoy better resources and a higher status. In this way, the current problem will be solved..."
Niu Youde glanced at Gu Yucheng in surprise, and then asked tentatively, "So, how can we monks who have left Xue Mansion compete with the old people in Xuecheng? We may not be able to catch up with our own strength alone." .”
Liang Yi nodded, "I tell you this today because I like you two. - In this test, what you two have to do is to unite the Xue Mansion monks and obtain resources within two months." .As long as you two succeed, you can return to Xue Mansion."
Gu Yucheng frowned, "So what does this have to do with the seal on me?"
Liang Yi raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Because, I want to see what you can do when you don't rely on your own cultivation?"
Gu Yucheng was shocked.
Liang Yi laughed, waved his hand and said, "You two should keep this matter secret and wait with peace of mind." After that, he turned and left.
Gu Yucheng murmured repeatedly, "Don't rely on your own cultivation? Don't rely on..."
Niu Youde looked at Gu Yucheng and could feel that Liang Yi was very fond of Gu Yucheng.
Gu Yucheng sighed to Niu Youde, "But I don't care about Xue Mansion at all. What I want is to enter the Demon Kingdom."
Niu Youde looked at Gu Yucheng and asked puzzledly, "Since your sister is not a direct relative, why go to the Demon Kingdom to die?"
Gu Yucheng's eyes darkened and he shook his head slightly, "She is the only person in this world that I can feel family affection for. What's more, I, the elder brother, was once ashamed of her, but I feel guilty in my heart if I can't help it. I might as well live on." One death.”
Niu Youde was shocked and sighed, "So, she is your sister?"
Gu Yucheng rolled his eyes at Niu Youde, "Of course."
Niu Youde thought of his sister named Shitou. As his elder brother, Niu Youde suddenly understood Gu Yucheng's mood, and finally sighed, "I won't help you go to the Demon Country, but I won't stop you this time. You can rely on yourself.”
Gu Yucheng smiled when he heard this, "What? You suddenly changed your gender?"
Niu Youde smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I just hope that no matter what, you can achieve the results you want."
Gu Yucheng nodded and sat back in his seat, "I'll lend you some good words."
When Niu Youde saw this, he left alone.
…
Liang Yi came to Xue Suchang's residence, felt Xue Suchang's breath and looked for him.
Following the breath, Liang Yi saw Xue Sushang picking up stones under the rockery, and Liang Yi's heart suddenly softened.
Whether it is Xue Shan, the father, or Liang Yi, the eldest brother, the time he can really spend with Xue Sushang is probably not as much as the time Xue Sushang spends with the rocks in the rockery.
Liang Yi walked gently behind Xue Sushang, and after letting Xue Sushang feel his presence, he softly said, "Shang'er. Little Shang'er."
Xue Sushang was angry and moved to prevent Liang Yi from getting close.
Liang Yi chased after him, came to Xue Sushang's side, and took the stone from Xue Sushang's hand.
Xue Sushang immediately became angry and said, "Ah! Why are you like this?!"
Seeing this, Liang Yi knelt down and touched Xue Sushang's fluffy hair as golden as wheat ears. "Does Shang'er still care about the virtues of cattle?"
Xue Sushang did not deny it, but was angry and did not answer.
Liang Yi understood everything when he saw this. Then he asked, "Why does Shang'er care so much about the virtues of cattle?"
Xue Sushang took the stone back, held it in his hand, and after a long time replied, "The only thing I can hold is the stone. In other words, the stone will not leave. It will not leave me. Niu Youde, he is as stupid as a stone."
Liang Yi suddenly understood and nodded, "I understand." He hugged Xue Sushang in his arms and apologized lovingly, "It's my eldest brother and father's fault. We all have burdens on our shoulders, and we can't always be with you." .”
Xue Sushang did not answer. Liang Yi only felt that Xue Sushang was trembling. Liang Yi knew that his little demon king was crying.
Liang Yi cursed directly in his heart: "
Screw it, why do you care so much? I still thought that if Niu Youde won, let him choose. Today he won and could only be Shang'er's housekeeper! As long as I am here, if he dares to have second thoughts and treat Shang'er badly, I will remove his arm! The legs were removed! The third leg was also disabled by him! "
Liang Yi hugged Shang'er and coaxed, "Okay, okay, Shang'er won't cry, Shang'er won't cry."
Xue Sushang rubbed Liang Yi's chest and said harshly, "Who cried? I didn't!"
Liang Yi chuckled, "Okay, no, no. - Brother is here today because he wants to tell you a good thing."
Xue Sushang asked angrily, "What good thing?"
Liang Yi smiled and said, "Father has decided to promote Niu Youde to be your housekeeper, and he will stay with you from now on."
Xue Sushang was stunned for a moment, looked at Liang Yi, and asked softly, "Really...really?"
Liang Yi rubbed Xue Sushang's little head fiercely, "Of course! - But there are conditions for this."
Hearing this, Xue Sushang quickly asked, "What's the premise?"
Liang Yi looked at Xue Sushang and comforted him softly, "Father still wants to drive away the monks in the house. However, this is a trial, a test of Niu's virtue. As long as he completes the test, he can be your The butler will stay in Xue Mansion forever."
Xue Sushang quickly asked, "What if Niu Youde fails?"
Liang Yi smiled and said, "Don't worry. I will help him... Even if he fails, he can still return to Xue Mansion to accompany Shang'er. He just can't be a housekeeper."
Xue Sushang didn't know that Liang Yi was coming back as a servant.
Xue Sushang only thought that it would be best if Niu was virtuous and never left.
Seeing that Xue Sushang's mood improved, Liang Yi smiled happily, "Okay, Shang'er doesn't have to worry about Niu Youde anymore. - Do you want big brother to come and play with you?"
Xue Sushang glanced at Liang Yi and said something different, "I don't want it."
Liang Yi suddenly picked up Xue Sushang and said, "I don't want it. I want to play with Shang'er."
Xue Sushang felt happy in his heart, but he still maintained a strong expression on his face, "Really... Then, let's play together, it's not a big deal anyway."
The brother and sister played happily in the courtyard.
At night, after Liang Yi put Xue Sushang to sleep, he came to Xue Shan's house.
Xue Shan was unusually not practicing.
Liang Yi then asked, "Are you worried? - There is no need to worry about Shang'er's matter."
Xue Shan breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.
Liang Yi sat directly on the seat, "I asked you, old man, why didn't you go to practice? It seems that you are still worried about Su Shang."
Xue Shan was not embarrassed when he was exposed. He avoided the topic and asked, "How are things?"
Liang Yi pondered for a moment and said, "Both Niu Youde and Shang'er know about the struggle between the newcomers in the Xue Mansion and the old families in Xuecheng, so there won't be any problem. As for the old families in the Xue Mansion, some old guys can just remind them.—— But I met a strange little guy today, and I think that little guy can be observed."
Xue Shan frowned slightly, "Is there anyone who can catch your eye?"
Liang Yi nodded, "Of course. It seems to be Concubine Shun captured by Shang'er. I forgot to ask her name. - But, there are some tricks."
Xue Shan nodded and waved his hand when he heard the words, "In that case, it's up to you."
After hearing this, Liang Yi thought for a moment, "Don't worry about that little guy's matter. It's just Shang'er's situation..."
Xue Shan frowned and asked nervously, "What's wrong?"
Liang Yi sighed, "After all, Shang'er is the child of the human race and the demon race... What will happen to her bloodline? When I was playing with Shang'er today, I vaguely felt the restlessness of Shang'er's bloodline."
Xue Shan sighed when he heard the words, "Shang'er's realm has indeed grown too fast. Her bloodline... I just hope that there will be no problems before I step into Yin and Yang. However, even if an accident happens, I think Venerable Zhaoming has a way to solve it." "
Liang Yi was silent for a long time, and finally sighed and comforted himself, "There is nothing we can do now but wait... After all, there are no descendants of the human race and the demon race in the entire wilderness..."
Xue Shan sighed, "We can only wait."
