Xia Youzhi's sudden departure left Gu Yuan feeling a little empty. This state lasted for several days, and then he slowly figured it out.
Indeed, Star City and Leicheng are not very far away. As long as you have time, you can visit them at any time.
Although I can understand these things, I feel empty in my heart, especially after Xia Youzhi went to Jianzong and couldn't get through the phone.
[In view of the general environment,
"I asked, are you still able to do it? Otherwise, I will just transfer you to Leicheng City." Kong Baihe joked from the side.
Gu Yuan looked at him and suddenly thought of something.
"Why did Xing Ruyu come to Star City?"
Kong Baihe knew that Gu Yuan would ask this, so he sighed.
"It's a long story..."
"Then let’s make a long story short."
Kong Baihe glanced at Gu Yuan dissatisfied. He was already preparing to vent his bitterness, but now that he was interrupted by Gu Yuan, he didn't know where to start.
Fortunately, he quickly regained his rhythm and explained: "It's not that complicated to say. We went to the Star Reaching Sect before, and when we left, she sneaked out and had to follow me to the capital. She was probably worried. She was forced to get married, and then I settled her in the capital."
"I didn't expect to come to Star City again now?"
"Yeah..." Kong Baihe said with a frown.
Gu Yuan was stunned for a moment, then smiled and comforted: "Actually, it's understandable. Xing Ruyu is just a little girl. If you let her stay alone in the capital with no friends, she will definitely not be able to stay. .”
Kong Baihe nodded.
"Where does she live now?"
"I arranged a hotel for her, but she was not happy and had to live with me. Fortunately, my place is big." Kong Baihe smiled.
The place is quite big. Kong Baihe bought a villa, a second-hand house, on the first day he came to Star City. The original owner had gone abroad and was said to be doing business.
Gu Yuan originally wanted to tease Kong Baihe and Xing Ruyu for living alone in the same room, but then he thought about it, that's not right, they have multiple rooms...
Just when Gu Yuan was about to curse a few words, he suddenly thought that he also had an undecorated villa under his name. The words he originally wanted to curse turned out to be: "People who buy villas have such good taste."
"Huh?" Kong Baihe didn't catch up with Gu Yuan's jumping thoughts.
However, Lao Kong reacted quickly. He immediately thought of something and said in surprise: "Have you bought a villa?" "Almost." Gu Yuan coughed lightly.
Although Li Siming paid for it, the name of the villa is indeed his.
"Tsk! What kind of class do you have? You live in the same villa as me." Kong Baihe joked and said, "But it's good. Since you have money, you can't go wrong buying a house. By the way, have you decorated it? I know a few designers, can I introduce them to you later?"
"Designers...get a lot of money for one design, right?"
"That's right... well, I'll take care of the decoration of your villa." Kong Baihe said with a smile.
He didn't know how much money Gu Yuan had now, but to him, money was just a bunch of numbers.
"Forget it, give me your contact information later and I'll ask myself." Gu Yuan smiled, "I still have some money now..."
After hearing what Gu Yuan said, Kong Baihe said nothing more.
In response to the second uncle's words, in the past two days, Zazen Mountain seemed to be slowly returning to its former peace.
This is an era of "hot spots". There will always be new hot spots emerging, and people's attention is particularly easy to attract. Although Gu Yuan and Kong Baihe are still sitting on Zen Mountain at the moment, they no longer need to tense their nerves all the time. , the work became more and more boring.
At this moment, Gu Yuan received a call from Zhou Zhen.
After hanging up the phone, before he spoke, Kong Baihe said, "You want us to go back?"
"Yes." Gu Yuan took a deep breath and looked up along the mountain path. He could vaguely see the cornices of the majestic main hall of Wenxin Temple.
This time the mission has finally come to an end.
Star City, which had been bustling for a long time, finally slowly returned to peace. For Gu Yuan Kong Baihe, this was of course a good thing. Second Uncle and the others could also have a good rest.
After going down the mountain and returning to the cafe, Gu Yuan and Kong Baihe saw Zhou Zhen still talking on the phone, so they did not come forward to disturb him.
Sitting at the window seat, drinking tea, Zhou Zhen finally finished his phone call and sat in front of them. He called Wei Xuanyi and Luo Yin who were chatting to him. As for Ge Fei and Bai Yu, they were neither Not in the cafe, but still on daily patrol.
"Captain Zhou, what's going on? Is there a new mission?" Kong Baihe asked tentatively.
"No! Didn't our mission just end? I'm going to go shopping and buy two new clothes!" Luo Yin immediately started complaining.
Zhou Zhen took a sip of tea, breathed "ha", and then said: "Why are you so anxious? I haven't said anything yet? Who said there is a new mission? I just want to tell you in advance that the foreign exchange group will be held in the afternoon The people are coming."
"Oh? So soon?" Gu Yuan smiled, "They are really... impatient."
"That's for sure. Even now, they feel it's too late, for fear that we may have taken the lead." Zhou Zhen said disdainfully.
Having worked in the Demon Suppression Department for some years, Zhou Zhen wanted to see things more thoroughly.
"Their love has nothing to do with us, right?" Wei Xuanyi asked doubtfully.
"It doesn't matter. I just want to remind you that the exchange group this time is the people from the Western Holy Bishop's Court."
"Or are they?" Kong Baihe said in surprise, "Some people have died here before them, so why don't they know how to be afraid?"
"It's because their people died here, so they are more certain that there are good things hidden in Wenxin Temple, right?"
Gu Yuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
What kind of logic is this...
Luo Yin glanced at Zhou Zhen with disdain and said, "As the acting captain, it doesn't matter if you don't know, but you still talk nonsense if you don't know. But it's your fault."
Zhou Zhen felt a little guilty after being told by Luo Yin, and asked, "What nonsense did I say?"
"You think of the Holy Bishop's Court too simply. They are so interested in the vision that appears in Wenxin Temple. They are not just trying to get some benefits from it. This may also involve the battle between religion and belief."
"Religious belief?" Gu Yuan seemed to have thought of something, but he couldn't explain it. This feeling made him feel like a lump in his throat and was extremely uncomfortable.
"Whether it is Buddhism or the Holy Bishop's Court, they are both religious beliefs, and the more people believe in it, the more powerful the power of faith they can gather. Therefore, I think the difference between the Holy Bishop's Court and the Buddhist Church There are disputes of faith among people." After Luo Yin said this, he yawned, "Don't ask me anything, I don't know anything else, these are just my guesses."
After saying that, he stood up and left.
After lunch, Gu Yuan and Kong Baihe made a pot of tea, sat on chairs and looked at the bustling streets outside through the glass window.
After a short rest, they were just about to go out for patrol when they were stopped by Zhou Zhen.
"You two, come out with me."
Kong Baihe and Gu Yuan looked at him at the same time.
Zhou Zhen sighed: "The sword holder has ordered us to help receive the people from the exchange group."
