"Xiao Gu, what are you thinking about?"
Seeing that Gu Yuan remained silent, Zhou Zhen patted his shoulder and said with a smile.
Wei Xuanyi had already left, but from Gu Yuan's mouth, he learned that Wei Jianshen's condition was not very good. Although she didn't say anything, her brows were full of worry.
Gu Yuan came back to his senses, looked at Zhou Zhen, and smiled bitterly.
"I don't understand something."
"What don't you understand?" After Zhou Zhen finished speaking, he came to his senses and asked, "Do you think the gift given to you by the Wei family is too heavy?"
Gu Yuan smiled bitterly and nodded.
A piece of Hidden Sky Jade worth several million has already shattered Gu Yuan's values.
From the reactions of Zhou Zhen and Wei Xuanyi, it can be seen that the value of that evil-suppressing knife is definitely not comparable to that of a piece of Hidden Sky Jade.
This gift.
It's just too heavy.
However, Gu Yuan gradually understood what Wei Jianshen said before.
In fact, this is a gesture of goodwill from the Wei family.
There may be gratitude, guilt, and entrustment.
But the real core.
It was Wei Jianshen's intention to be on good terms with him.
"If I refuse, the people of the Wei family will be polite to me, but there will be no further interactions." Gu Yuan said.
Zhou Zhen smiled and said, "It's good if you understand this."
"I understand, but I don't understand much. I don't think I have anything worthy of being looked at by the Wei family."
Zhou Zhen thought to himself, that only shows that you don't understand yourself deeply enough.
He gently patted Gu Yuan's shoulder, faced those doubtful eyes, bared his big white teeth and said, "Xiao Gu, do you think Mr. Wei is great?"
"yes."
"So, since he is optimistic about you, there must be a reason." Zhou Zhen said, "Also, don't make things too complicated. Maybe he just wants you to become the Wei family's son-in-law?"
Gu Yuan: "..."
If it were before, Gu Yuan must have felt that this possibility would not exist.
After all, when Wei Xuanyi talked to him, Wei Jianshen's eyes would look a little murderous.
But now.
Gu Yuan felt that this might not be impossible.
otherwise.
Why did Wei Jianshen keep asking Gu Yuan to help take care of Wei Xuanyi?
Why does the other party think that he has such great ability?
…
The fourth day in Lucheng.
Gu Yuan's injuries have fully recovered.
Finally decided to leave for Star City.
When he had nothing to do, Gu Yuan folded a lot of small paper figures.
This method has become more and more skillful.
When leaving, Wei Jianshen also came out to see him off in person.
His complexion seems to have improved a lot, and at least he has no problem moving around freely.
Wei Xuanyi was already sitting in the car at this time, urging him to leave quickly.
It seemed that he didn't want to stay at home for a moment.
Wei Jianshen didn't say anything, he just patted Gu Yuan's arm lightly.
"Be careful on the road and remember to take good care of Xuan Yi for me."
When Zhou Zhen heard this, he felt strange and took a deep look at Gu Yuan.
Listen.
This is clearly the father-in-law's instructions to his son-in-law.
"Well, thank you Mr. Wei." Gu Yuan's evil-suppressing knife has been put into the Hidden Sky Jade.
In the past few days, he has mastered the use of Hidden Sky Jade.
Moreover, Gu Yuan also discovered that the storage space in the Tibetan Jade given to him by Wei Jianshen was much larger than he had imagined.
Can fit into a refrigerator!
At this moment, a car drove up.
Gongshu Shan got out of the car, panting heavily.
"Haha, fortunately, I'm not late!"
"Captain Gongshu is here too?" Zhou Zhen said with a smile.
"That's natural! You guys were invited by me. Speaking of which, I didn't even entertain you well today. Next time! Definitely next time!" Gong Shushan said with narrowed eyes.
Wei Jianshen said from the side: "Don't smile. Your eyes are small to begin with, and you can't even see them when you smile."
Gongshu Shan didn't mind at all and said with good reason: "What do you know? My eyes are small because I don't want to see the filth in the world."
Good guy, this moment has sublimated.
Gongshu Shan walked up to Gu Yuan and took out a folding fan from his body.
"I know that Old Wei has given you a lot of good things. This fan is actually nothing special. You also know that the Demon Suppression Division doesn't have that much money, so just treat it as a souvenir."
When Gu Yuan heard what Gong Shushan said, he stretched out his hand to take it, but then he thought of something and asked, "Isn't this an antique?"
"I don't know. I bought it on the roadside when I came here."
Gu Yuan felt even more relieved.
"Next time you have time, come to Lucheng!" Gong Shushan said with a grin.
"Um!"
After exchanging a few words, Gu Yuan and Zhou Zhen also returned to the car.
Zhou Zhen was the driver and Gu Yuan was sitting in the passenger seat.
"This Gongshu Mountain is so mean!" Wei Xuanyi, who was sitting in the back row, muttered.
"I can understand." Zhou Zhen said, "The salary of our Demon Suppressing Department is not high in the first place. It is impossible to give Gu Yuan any magic weapon or artifact, nor is it an antique. That's your intention!"
"makes sense."
The car had just driven a few dozen meters when Wei Xuanyi suddenly shouted.
"parking!"
Zhou Zhen was so frightened that he stepped on the brakes.
"What's wrong?"
Wei Xuanyi frowned and took out the Xuanqing dagger.
"Just now, the dagger reacted." She said, "But...it seemed like just a moment."
"Could it be that the perception was wrong?" Zhou Zhen was a little surprised.
Wei Xuanyi said nothing.
"Hehe, brother, I also felt the evil spirit just now! It was very strong! However, it disappeared in just a moment!" Xiao Ai on Gu Yuan's cell phone also said.
While talking, "House of Flying Daggers" automatically played.
The atmosphere became more tense.
Zhou Zhen and Gu Yuan's expressions changed.
If Wei Xuanyi spoke before, his perception may have been wrong, and then add what Xiao Ai said.
There was indeed a demonic spirit appearing just now.
"What should I do?" Gu Yuan asked softly
"Inform the captain of Gongshu first." Zhou Zhen made a prompt decision.
A monster suddenly appeared around him, and it was very strong. It was most likely the B-level monster from before.
soon.
Gongshu Shan and Wei Jianshen both rushed over.
"The monster appeared?" Wei Jianshen asked with a frown.
"I don't know, it just disappeared in an instant. Maybe he realized that he had been discovered." Wei Xuanyi said.
Wei Jianshen said nothing and turned to look at Gongshu Mountain.
The two had known each other for many years, and there was still a tacit understanding between them. Gong Shushan understood immediately and picked up the phone.
"I will arrange for people to search the surrounding area now."
"I'm afraid we can't find it. That thing is hiding from us." Wei Jianshen snorted coldly.
In the past few days, Gongshu Shan and the people from the Demon Suppression Department have been searching for Fei Yao's whereabouts in Lucheng, but there have been no clues.
But now, just as Zhou Zhen and Gu Yuan were about to leave, they sensed a powerful evil spirit.
Wei Jianshen knew that his previous guess was correct.
That monster was most likely targeting Gu Yuan.
"Otherwise, don't leave today." Wei Jianshen said.
"What's the point?" Wei Xuanyi said, "If we don't leave, he won't show up. Could it be that we have been hiding in the Wei family?"
This is the same as Gu Yuan's previous thoughts.
"I'll think of a way, you guys just wait." Wei Jian said in a deep voice.
Wei Xuanyi curled his lips and looked at Gu Yuan.
"Gu Yuan, I listen to you, whatever you say should be done."
Gu Yuan did not dare to risk his own life casually. If Fei Yao really targeted them and chose to take action on the road, Gu Yuan, Zhou Zhen and Wei Xuanyi, three people tied together, might not be the opponent of Fei Yao.
Moreover, in line with the law of "when three people go together, there must be a corpse", the risk factor is increased a lot.
"How about...wait first?" Gu Yuan asked tentatively.
