"Without further delay, Brother Gu will simply pack up and set off immediately."

Gu Xuan drank all the tea in the bowl, stood up, and glanced at the direction he came from before speaking cautiously.

Gu Ping's eyes flashed, and he had no objection: "That's good, so as to prevent the teahouse from being swept away."

Gu Xuan pointed to the long sword and the sounding horse: "The horse and the sword are given together. Brother Gu might as well disguise himself as a warrior to make it easier."

"This..." Gu Ping hesitated for a moment, then suddenly puffed up his chest, "Brother Huang is so righteous, I can't stand back, so I'll let An'er go first, and I will meet the enemy with Brother Huang."

Gu Xuan secretly smiled bitterly. He wanted to send Gu Ping and his son away so that he could find his father's relics, so he acted like that, but he made the other party think that a powerful enemy was coming.

After a change of thought, Gu Xuan quickly refused: "How can I let Brother Gu be involved in danger? Don't mention this matter again. The sword is just the icing on the cake and confuses the opponent. The hidden weapon is my killing move."

Having said this, Gu Xuan patted the bag on his waist: "By the way, can Brother Gu know how to ride a horse?"

Gu Ping no longer insisted: "When I was sending Xiaoli to Guzhou, I learned to ride a horse."

Gu Xuan then asked: "I will go to the bottom of Gumu Cliff. If I don't find the body, I will build a tomb for my cousin. Where are the relics?"

Gu Ping said solemnly: "The relics are all placed in the bedroom and I haven't touched them without permission. I will take Brother Huang there."

"Good work."

Gu Xuan smiled slightly and followed Gu Ping into the back room slowly.

The two bedrooms were side by side. Gu Ping opened the door to the bedroom on the right: "This should be Gu Xuan's bedroom. In the past six months, my father and son have slept here."

"It's Gu Xuan's bedroom."

Gu Xuan looked dazed, nodded slightly, and walked into the bedroom.

"One time when I was hungover, Gu Xuan and I slept together, and the boy flattered me all night just to practice martial arts."

Perhaps in order to avoid suspicion, Gu Ping did not follow him, and recalled: "The Gu Xuan in my impression is still in his infancy, and he looks white and tender."

Gu Xuan looked around, his eyes full of nostalgia. Except for a few pieces of hardware, there were no daily necessities from the past.

"Brother Gu, hurry up and clean up. I'll go to the next bedroom to take a look."

Gu Xuan opened the bedroom on the left in a familiar manner, and Gu Ping and his son quickly entered the bedroom on the right to tidy up.

There are many items in the bedroom on the left, divided into categories, well organized, and clearly

It has been carefully organized.

The surface of the object is covered with a thin layer of dust, indicating that Gu Ping and his son have not come in again since the object was sealed.

Gu Xuan glanced around and saw that everything was familiar, but things were different and people were different. He couldn't help but feel sad. He asked softly: "Is there a secret room or hidden compartment in the bedroom?"

Wang Mang analyzed: "It's just an ordinary house with no traces of any organization. As your father, the most likely relics to be handed over are savings and the like."

Gu Xuan quickly found a wooden box and opened the lid. There were two copper coins and a jade pendant inside.

The jade pendant is milky white, with a warm texture, exquisite carving, and lifelike flower and bird patterns, without engraved words.

Wang Mang was the first to say: "This jade pendant is made of the finest jade. It is not something ordinary people can possess. It should be the relic that your father mentioned."

Gu Xuan chuckled: "I have never seen this jade pendant before, maybe it is a token of love between mother and father."

He carefully put away the jade pendant and copper coins, found a few sets of clothes that Gu Ren often wore, packed them into packages, and tied them behind his back.

Following Wang Mang's suggestion, Gu Xuan sighed and took away nothing he had used in the past.

The doors on both sides were left open, and the three of them walked out of the bedroom almost at the same time, with Gu Ping and his son each carrying a package.

Standing on the official road, Gu Xuan took one last look at the tea house, took out a few Huofen Pills, and flew out with a wave of his hand.

With a few soft sounds, the talisman pill turned into a raging fire and burned down the tea house.

Gu Xuan stared at the fire, recalling the exchange with Gu Ping, and found something missing: "Brother Gu, apart from me, is there anyone else who inquires about my cousin's uncle's situation in detail?"

Gu Ping said quickly: "Many old tea drinkers have asked, and I have responded unanimously. Since Gu Ren has changed his career, I will take over the tea house."

Gu An suddenly interrupted: "About two months ago, my father went to the city to do some shopping. Three women came to the tea house and kept asking about my origins."

Gu Xuan's expression changed: "What are the characteristics of those three women?"

Gu An recalled carefully: "The clothes are gorgeous, the temperament is extraordinary, and he doesn't look like an ordinary warrior...I vaguely heard something about the waterfall mechanism."

"Not like ordinary warriors? They should not be my enemies." Gu Xuan handed over to Gu Ping, "Brother Gu, take care."

"Brother Huang, take care."

After saying goodbye, Gu Ping waved his riding whip, and the strong horse neighed, spread its hooves, and drove away.

Gu Xuan sneered: "Wow

Ling is most likely one of the three women. Does the Waterfall Mechanism exist?"

Wang Mang said: "That is a cave that I opened in the Kingdom of Xi. Even if it can be found, it will not be easy for Wang Ling and others to enter with their true power."

"Got to check it out."

When the tea house was reduced to ashes, Gu Xuan's figure flashed several times and disappeared without a trace.

…

On the hilltop not far from the tea house, there is a simple tomb. The wooden tablet only has the words "Xiao Li's Tomb" engraved on it.

Since Da Guxuan can remember, Gu Ren has taken him here every Qingming Festival to sweep the tomb and burn incense to worship.

Gu Xuan once asked about his mother's surname, and Gu Ren responded in person that your mother's name is Xiaoli and she has no surname.

When he came to his mother's tomb again, Gu Xuan couldn't help but be filled with emotion.

Compared to the last time I visited the tomb, there are clear signs of renovations on the tomb, which should have been done by Gu Ping and his son.

Gu Xuan said quietly: "In the cold winter a few years ago, my father was ill in bed, and the doctors in Fufeng City were helpless, so my father deliberately buried him in the same coffin as his mother. Later, a walking doctor stayed with him and he was cured."

Wang Mang commented: "We live together on the same bed and die together in the coffin. Your father is deeply affectionate and should be a role model for men in the world."

Gu Xuan asked: "If I pry open my mother's coffin, will I be disrespectful to her?"

Wang Mang said slowly: "As far as refining the heart is concerned, we must abide by the last wishes of our ancestors. According to the custom in my hometown, you must kowtow to your mother. If your mother truly loves your father, how can you blame him?"

Gu Xuan no longer hesitated, knelt down and kowtowed, explaining the matter of being buried together in the coffin.

Without using a sword or shovel, Gu Xuan pulled up the wooden monument and dug the soil directly with his hands, very quickly.

The excavated soil piled up more and more at the edge of the pit, and a cheap, dark coffin gradually came into view.

Gu Xuan stopped digging, carefully pried off the coffin nails, and solemnly moved the coffin lid aside.

The corpse in the coffin has long since turned into a skeleton, but the clothes are still there, and there is an eye-catching brocade bag tied on the belt.

Gu Xuan originally had a solemn face, but when he saw the brocade bag, he was surprised.

There are four official characters embroidered on the front of the brocade bag: "Gu Xuan Qinqi".

"I understand, your father's last words were probably your mother's belongings, and your father's request to be buried together in the coffin was supposed to be for you to open the coffin and take away your mother's belongings."
