The rain was pouring down, and the rainwater washed down from the eaves, like a waterfall. Leaves fell all over the courtyard, and the patter of rain was a bit disturbing.
In the hall, Gu Zhan was sitting on a chair with a cup of tea in his hand. He looked at Rong Yichu quietly with an indifferent expression and asked, "Why are you so persistent in seeing me?"
Rong Yichu's hair was still wet, his face was pale, and his lips were a little chapped. He seemed to be recovering from a serious illness. His body was always trembling slightly involuntarily, and he felt like he might faint at any time.
He looked at Gu Zhan, feeling a little dazed for a moment. After a while, he raised his hands and said, "Please, Master Gu, save my Rong family..."
Gu Zhan chuckled lightly and said, "I won't say anything teasing. I know your Rong family's current situation very well. Just tell me your bargaining chip. Why should I save your Rong family?"
Rong Yichu struggled to open a large box placed next to him and said: "This is all the existing properties of the Rong family, as well as some martial arts secrets, as well as the bows and arrows specially made by our Rong family for you..."
Gu Zhan waved his hand and said, "It's not enough to impress me."
"I know," Rong Yichu said softly, "I know that the current Rong family cannot offer enough leverage to impress Mr. Gu, but this is all the Rong family can offer."
"Then let's do it." Gu Zhan stood up and left immediately.
"Master Gu!"
Just as he walked to the door of the hall, Rong Yichu behind him shouted, knelt on the ground with a bang, and said: "This is the property of the Rong family, and it is not used in exchange for Mr. Gu's protection. It's just that I, Rong Yi I first wanted to prove my determination to Mr. Gu.”
Gu Zhan stopped, turned around slowly, looked at Rong Yichu who was kneeling on the ground, and said, "Then tell me about your determination."
Rong Yichu's voice was very weak, but extremely firm, and he said: "I am willing to give up everything, all wealth, honor, fame, and dignity. I want to see if I can go from the abyss to the mountain step by step on my own." Ding, can I get back everything I lost?
Please, Lord Gu, give me a chance! "
Rong Yichu shouted the last sentence hysterically, kowtowed heavily, and lay prone on the ground.
Gu Zhan casually sat on the chair next to him, looked at Rong Yichu who was kneeling on the ground, and said slowly: "This is interesting, what are you doing?"
Rong Yichu slowly raised his head, blood flowed from his forehead to the tip of his nose and dripped on the ground. He looked at Gu Zhan and said, "I, Rong Yichu, am willing to be whoever you need, sir. I swear to God, I will always be there." Be loyal and never betray. If you violate this oath, you will be cut into pieces by a thousand cuts. You cannot live or die!"
After that, Rong Yichu took out a dagger and said, "Sir, I can tattoo my face and stab the Gu family myself, and I will be a servant for the rest of my life!"
While saying this, Rong Yichu stabbed his cheek directly with a dagger.
"No need to."
Gu Zhan stood up, stretched out two fingers to hold the dagger, and said slowly: "I, Gu Zhan, don't believe in these superficial skills, just prove it with your actions in the future!"
Rong Yichu's eyes burst into light, he kowtowed on the ground and said, "Thank you, sir!"
Gu Zhan sat back on the chair and said: "There are too many promises that I can't give. I need someone by my side to help me with the finishing work. From now on, you can serve as an adviser for me. As for the Rong family, move in Nancheng can develop independently, but I don’t want anything to disrupt the order of Nancheng.”
Rong Yichu prostrated himself on the ground and said, "Don't worry, sir. From now on, the Rong family will no longer be an aristocratic family, but just a small family dependent on you. Your orders will always be the first rule of the Rong family."
Gu Zhan nodded and said, "That's enough, go back and get ready."
"Yes, students are resigning."
Rong Yichu stood up, bowed and bowed, and left slowly.
Gu Zhan looked at Rong Yichu's back and suddenly shouted: "Rong Yichu."
Rong Yichu turned around quickly, bowed and said, "The students are here!"
Gu Zhan asked slowly: "If the Rong family is really broken and re-established, who do you want to be?"
Rong Yichu pondered for a moment and said slowly: "It has nothing to do with the Rong family. Yichu hopes that one day in the future, I can accompany you to the top of the mountain, and then look at you standing on the top of the mountain and overlooking the world."
Gu Zhan waved his hand and said nothing.
Rong Yichu bowed and left slowly.
Slowly walking into the rain, Rong Yichu suddenly turned around,
He happened to see Gu Zhan walking towards the main seat at the top of the hall with his back turned to him.
Step by step,
Rong Yichu bowed and bowed,
Gu Zhan stopped in front of the chair, slowly turned around and sat down.
The heavy rain is still pouring down, splashing water on the ground, crackling on the tiles, like a different kind of music.
Gu Zhan sat alone on a chair and looked at the big box in front of him.
There are some industrial contracts of the Rong family inside.
There are also a lot of martial arts secrets, as well as a black gong and a quiver.
Gu Zhan picked up the bow, and at that moment, his consciousness as an archery master came out. This is a good bow, a good bow that is hard to find.
After looking carefully, Gu Zhan recognized the bow's material, which was made of cold iron that was very hard to find.
Cold iron is a weapon material that everyone in the world pursues. However, because it is expensive and has no market, many people may spend ten or eight years just to find some scraps and barely integrate them into weapons.
This bow and the twenty arrows in the quiver were all made of cold iron. However, what Gu Zhan admired even more was the string. It should be made from the tendons of some particularly powerful beasts mixed with special materials. It was perfect. Matches the Cold Iron Bow.
This set of bows and arrows is really a big deal.
Gu Zhan played with it for a while, quite reluctantly, and then started to look through the pile of secret books.
There are a few martial arts secrets for Xuanjie,
However, most of them have no real help to Gu Zhan now.
The only ones that Gu Zhan likes are two.
One is an archery skill called Shadow Archery, and its level has reached the upper level of Xuan level.
The other one is a boxing technique, which is the most famous Mad Lion Fist of the Rong family, and its grade is the middle level of Xuan level.
These two martial arts are very useful to Gu Zhan now. Shadow Archery can improve his strength in the arrow path, and Crazy Lion Fist can make up for his shortcomings in hand-to-hand combat.
Immediately, Gu Zhan opened the system and collected two cheats. There were two more skill options on the system page: Player: Gu Zhan

Gu Zhan looked at the remaining experience points, thought about it, and immediately chose to practice shadow archery first:
