He didn't know how long he had been in coma, but suddenly a clear and sweet piano sound came to his ears, which made Gu Fei wake up from his drowsiness.
The sound of the piano is tinkling, and suddenly it is like flowing water and clouds. It is extremely beautiful, as if you are in the mountains, with the cool breeze blowing on your face, and your whole body is soothing. Sometimes it is like rain hitting the plantains, as if a storm is coming and the dark clouds are pressing down. , romantic, and sometimes sad and heavy. When you hear the sound of the piano, you can already know the ups and downs of the player's mood at this time.
Gu Fei opened his eyes and saw that he was lying on a bed. It seemed that... the bed was moving up and down slightly.
"What is this place?" Gu Fei sat up suddenly, but suddenly there was a bone-deep pain in his arms and chest. The sudden pain made him cry out in pain.
At this moment, the sound of the piano from outside the room stopped immediately, and then Gu Fei heard a burst of soft footsteps, coming towards here.
Looking down, Gu Fei saw that the fractured areas on his arms had been fixed with wooden boards. However, when he sat up from the bed, the injured area was shaken, which made the pain unbearable.
"Squeak!" With a sound, the door was pushed open from the outside, and several people walked in from the outside. Gu Fei quickly raised his head and saw only four people coming in. The first one was a handsome man who was eye-catching. Bright boy.
"Huh? This young man looks a bit similar to Zi Yu. How come he looks like a boy and a girl?" Gu Fei's eyes swept across the four people. The four people who came in had similar figures. The appearance immediately came into his eyes.
"Well! You're finally awake." The leading boy was not very old, only seventeen or eighteen years old, but when he spoke, he seemed to deliberately lower his voice. Even so, the boy spoke The voice was too delicate.
Even her voice sounded like a girl's. Gu Fei couldn't help but feel something strange in his heart. This was an intuition, not that he really noticed anything strange about this young man.
"Who are you and where are you?" As he said this, a light flashed in Gu Fei's eyes, and a sinister aura immediately spread out from his body.
"This person..." Standing behind the young man was an old man wearing a green coat with a stooped body and gray hair. He felt that the aura of the young man on the bed had changed drastically. He suddenly became extremely dangerous, which made his heart pound. The old man did not move. He took a half-step forward with a voice.
Although the old man only took half a step, the angle was just right, and it could even be said to be seamless. With half a step, he could not only advance and attack, but also retreat and defend. He also vaguely separated the young man and the two handsome men beside him. The maid is also protected under his wings.
Obviously, this old man dressed as a servant is a master with extremely rich combat experience.
"Haha! My surname is Ling, and this is the merchant ship of the Haotian Merchant Group." The young man chuckled and replied, as if he was not aware of Gu Fei's hostility towards him.
However, the young man's clear but deep voice, trying to sound mature, was a bit awkward to Gu Fei's ears.
"Brother, why did you get injured and fell into the water? Did you encounter robbers? Or...if our ship hadn't passed by and rescued you, something would have been very bad, brother." The young man tapped the folding fan on his palms, and looked directly at He sat down on the chair next to him.
The young man did not say the words "the enemy is chasing him", but everyone could hear the obvious implication.
"Haotian Merchant Group?" Gu Fei couldn't help but ponder. This was the first time he heard this name. Gu Fei has been practicing in the mountains since he was a child. To the outside world, he is like a blank sheet of paper. Everything in the outside world is strange to him.
"I'm Gu Fei, thank you for saving me." Gu Fei is a person who has a clear sense of grudges, and he is determined to keep his mind spotless and not let the external world shake his state of mind. Therefore, Gu Fei said directly without thinking too much. gave his name.
"Gu Fei? It seems that there are not many people with the surname Gu in Tenglong Continent. Among the aristocratic families in the Three Kingdoms, there is no family with the surname Gu. But I don't know where Brother Gu is from?" The young man thought for a moment and then said.
At this time, the hostility in Gu Fei had subsided, and the old servant's tense nerves relaxed.
Gu Fei's gaze glanced at the old man in green clothes intentionally or unintentionally. His gaze made the old man's heart palpitate, as if he could penetrate deep into the old man's heart.
This young man...is not an ordinary person. The old man couldn't help but be wary of Gu Fei. A man of unknown origins and not a simple man made this old man who was accustomed to the world a little uneasy.
The old man naturally stood behind the handsome young man. In fact, he was always protecting the young man. Any disturbance around him could not escape his eyes.
"This man has no mana fluctuations in his body. He is not a cultivator. Could it be that he is practicing martial arts like me?" Gu Fei had already come out. This old man was very extraordinary. His spirit was reserved and his footsteps were silent. He seemed to be a very ordinary person. Old man, but Gu Fei felt a well-hidden aura of a strong man in this old man.
Seeing that Gu Fei seemed a little hesitant, an emerald-green maid next to the young man immediately said displeasedly: "You are so rude, why don't you answer the questions of my young...my young master? If it weren't for my young master, After I rescued you from the river, you would have already fed the bastard in the river."
"Xiao Cui, don't be so presumptuous!" The young man waved the folding fan in his hand and said to Gu Fei with a faint smile, as if he was reproaching, but there was no hint of reproach in his words.
Gu Fei glanced at Xiao Cui, without any expression on his face. He said lightly: "I am from Taixuan Mountain in Qi State. I don't know the answer. Are you satisfied with Brother Ling?" Gu Fei was brought back by Master Wan Xiancheng since he was a child. Taixuanshan, grew up in the mountain, it is not inappropriate to say that he is a Taixuanshan person.
"Tai Xuan Mountain?" Everyone in the room was moved. The old man standing behind the young man was obviously surprised, with a look of surprise on his face.
The young man surnamed Ling's eyes suddenly lit up, he stood up from his seat, folded the fan in his hand, and said excitedly: "Is Brother Gu a disciple of Taixuan Sect?"
No wonder this tomboy disguised as a man is so excited, because the three great sects have an extraordinary status on Tenglong Continent, and they are the three great celestial sects that everyone aspires to.
The young man named Gu Fei in front of him is probably a member of the Immortal Sect. This teaches these ordinary people how not to be surprised or excited.
Now is the time when Taixuanmen, one of the three great gates, opens its gates once every ten years to recruit disciples. In the entire Central Plains region, the children of that aristocratic family do not want to be selected by Taixuanmen, so that they can reach the sky in one step and step into the ranks of cultivating immortality and enlightenment. , have the opportunity to comprehend the immortal road of immortality?
The two maids beside the young man were already speechless and looking at Gu Fei in shock, as if they were a monster.
The Ling family has recently been worried about which of their school-age children should be sent to the Taixuan Sect of Qi State to participate in the selection of disciples.
This is why the girl surnamed Ling, who disguised herself as a man, came out to relax and stay away from the infighting in the family.
In a big family, no matter how shrewd or powerful the head of the family is, there will inevitably be disputes arising out of interests. Whether it's overt or covert, intrigues are the most annoying.
"Brother Ling also knows about Taixuan Sect?" Gu Fei was startled when he saw everyone's surprised expressions. He didn't know why. He had never been to the outside world. Of course, he didn't know what the Three Great Sects meant on Tenglong Continent. .
To cultivate immortality and enlightenment, to become one of the gods and immortals, to live forever, and even to live as long as heaven and earth, that is what every ordinary person longs for.
"Haha! Brother Gu is joking." As he said that, the young man surnamed Ling also knew that he had lost his composure, and then sat back on the chair again, "The three major immortal sects are the Taoist cultivation holy land of our Tenglong Continent. Who knows which one? Don’t know?”
"Oh?" Gu Fei was a little surprised. By this time, he also roughly knew the existence of his sect in Tenglong Continent.
Gu Fei doesn't have any scheming. He does everything he wants and takes action as he thinks in his heart. He doesn't have many scruples like the people in the world.
"Yes, I am a disciple of Cuiling Peak of Taixuan Sect. I don't know where Brother Ling is from. Can you tell me?" Gu Fei's character is the most nonchalant. He said what he thought of, straight to the point.
"Haha..." Miss Ling, who was disguised as a man, looked very happy. She said with a smile: "Sure enough, it turns out that Brother Gu is really a disciple of Taixuan Sect. It is really great to be able to make friends with Brother Gu."
"Well! I am Ling Yan of the Haotian Merchant Group. The head of the Ling family is my father. I am the thirteenth in the family. Therefore, Brother Gu can also call me Ling Shisan." Ling Yan, who was disguised as a man, looked serious. formally introduced himself to Gu Fei.
Hearing Ling Shisan introduce herself in this way, the two pretty maids beside her couldn't help but smile at each other, and the old man in green clothes behind her also had a strange look in his eyes.
Everyone's expressions all fell into Gu Fei's eyes. Although his thoughts were simple, he was not a fool. He felt something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.
Gu Fei had almost no experience in walking in the world. Even though Ling Shisan acted very "girly", he did not know that the extremely handsome young man in front of him was a girl.
Of course, apart from Ling Shisan's name and gender, everything else she said was not a lie. This girl is none other than Ling Luoyan, the thirteenth daughter of the head of the Ling family of the Haotian Merchant Group.
"Brother Ling, if there's nothing else, I want to take a rest." Gu Fei is in a hurry to use his energy to heal his injuries. Why is he willing to have a long conversation with Ling Yan?
"Oh! I was happy for a moment, but I forgot that Brother Gu was injured. I'm really sorry. In this case, I will leave first." Ling Luoyan stood up from the chair as he spoke, and cupped his hands to Gu Fei.
Gu Fei nodded and said no more words.
Ling Luoyan, who was disguised as a man, didn't take it seriously, smiled lightly, and then left the room with the two maids and the old man in green clothes, and closed the door.
"I didn't expect that I survived the catastrophe. It turned out that there was a big river under the abyss. It was really dangerous!" Gu Fei couldn't help but trembled all over when he thought of himself being thrown out of the abyss by Zhao Xuanji's sword, and his heart skipped a beat for no reason.
At this time, night had fallen, and stars began to appear in the sky. Three large ships had already been moored at a pier on the riverside. The lights on the ships illuminated the nearby river very brightly.
Ling Luoyan and others went out from the cabin to the deck.
"I didn't expect that during this long trip, I would meet the disciples of Taixuan Sect. It was really a worthwhile trip." Ling Luoyan murmured as he looked towards the river. Two maids, Xiaocui and Xiaoyue, were waiting nearby.
"Miss, please forgive me for speaking frankly, that Gu Fei will probably cause a lot of trouble for us!" Uncle Zhong frowned and said in a deep voice.
"Huh? Uncle Zhong, why do you say that?" Ling Luoyan was startled when he heard this.
"Miss, think about it, in the entire continent, who dares to do anything to people from the three major immortal sects? Those who dare to attack the disciples of Taixuan Sect, one of the three major immortal sects, can't be offended. Besides, old slave Na Gu Fei did not feel the fluctuation of mana from a Taoist cultivator."
"You...you mean, he might not be a member of the Taixuan Sect?" Ling Luoyan's expression immediately turned grim. His beautiful and charming face, like a fish falling into the sky, instantly seemed to be covered with a layer of ice, cold and cold. scary.
