Gu Zhan smiled and said: "No, who told me to show off my awesomeness when I was in Linjiang City? If I don't do it, wouldn't I be slapping myself in the face?"

At that moment, the scene when they had their last drink in Linjiang City flashed into their minds.

At that time, both of them were quite drunk and went to the brothel arm in arm.

Furukawa said grandly: "When you come to Kyoto in the future, if something happens to you, please give me Furukawa's name so that I can help!"

Gu Zhan patted Furukawa's name and said:

"The day I come to Kyoto, if you Furukawa encounters trouble in the world, you can protect me even if you repay me with Gu Zhan's name!"

in a daze,

Both of them seemed to have returned to four years ago,

Back when I was in that small Linjiang City,

At that time, we visited brothels together, killed people together, drank Bawang wine together, and peed three feet in the wind on the roof together!

Furukawa looked at Gu Zhan in front of him. He looked up and down for a long time, and his mouth was about to burst from laughter. However, as he smiled, he couldn't help but feel his nose sore, and tears rolled down from the corners of his eyes.

He wiped it off with some embarrassment, then hugged Gu Zhan tightly, choking slightly and said: "Brother, I really miss you!"

Gu Zhan slowly patted Furukawa's back and said softly: "I've wanted to come to the capital to see you for a long time!"

Furukawa wiped his nose with his sleeve, turned around with a smile, lifted two jars of wine from the ground, and said, "Come on, let's stop talking nonsense and drink. This is really good wine!"

Gu Zhan pulled Furukawa and smiled: "Let's go, let's go!"

The moonlight shines in the courtyard, and the laughter is wild,

The shadows of the two people holding each other's backs stretched very long.

Four years ago, Furukawa said, I am responsible for the brothers I recognize, whether they are humans or ghosts!

Four years ago, Gu Zhan said, wait until I protect you.

Four years ago, Furukawa said, "The mountains are high and the rivers are far away. No matter what you encounter, just remember to come to the capital to find me!"

Four years ago, Gu Zhan said, what are you afraid of being chopped down? I will chop him back with you.

Four years ago, the two of them hacked people back to back. Furukawa left a share of his three-year inheritance to Gu Zhan overnight. Before leaving, the two made a promise to meet in Kyoto. Later, just because of a letter from Gu Zhan

, Furuchuan begged his grandfather and grandma to keep Rong at all costs. Yichu entered Jixia Academy. Later, when he heard that the Gu Zhangu family looked down on Gu Zhan, he left home in anger and never returned!

Now, Gu Zhan came as promised.

…

The two of them drank a lot of wine in the room and talked a lot. They both wanted to say everything they had not said in the past four years in one night.

Until it was almost dawn,

Furukawa burped, then finally remembered to ask something serious, and said, "Is it convenient to talk here?"

Gu Zhan nodded and said, "Don't worry, as long as I'm here, I won't let a third person hear our conversation."

Furukawa took off his shoes, raised his legs directly on the table, lay on the chair, opened his clothes, blushed, smiled, and said: "It's almost dawn, if I don't ask about something serious, I'm afraid I'll have to go back

I was taught by my sister, hahaha..." While smiling, Furukawa suddenly approached Gu Zhan and asked: "How is it, my sister is pretty, isn't she?"

Gu Zhan raised his eyebrows and said with a confused look on his face: "Is this what you are talking about?"

Furukawa waved his hand and said: "Didn't I say this before? When you come to Kyoto, I will introduce my sister to you!"

Gu Zhan chuckled and said, "I'm afraid, you have to be taught a lesson by Miss Gu Qi for this matter, right?"

"Isn't that right?" Furukawa said: "You don't know what my sister said at the beginning. How can I, as an elder brother, joke about my sister's life-long events at will? Then I went back and asked my wife to close the door, and I slept there.

There isn’t even a quilt in Yue Study Room!”

With that said, Furukawa put his hand on Gu Zhan's shoulder and said: "But, you don't know, a few months ago, my sister went to Yunxi to meet you, but she changed after she came back. She smiled and followed me

Say, brother, you have such a good eye and you are so accurate in judging people!"

Gu Zhan smiled and said, "I also think you are pretty good at judging people."

"Hey," Furukawa said with a smile, "How about, how about I introduce my sister to you?"

"Forget it, forget it," Gu Zhan waved his hand and said, "I only care about martial arts and nothing else."

Furukawa: "That's not what you said when you visited the brothel."

Gu Zhan: "That's just business!"

Furukawa curled his lips and said: "But I heard that you have a lot of people in your house. Four of the top ten beauties in Yunxi are now in your house, and there is also Kou Baimen, the leader of the Yunzhou martial arts alliance. Hmm

, it is said that I went to see that so-and-so in Yuncheng two days ago. What is the name of the number one in the new martial arts hall in Yunzhou? I can’t remember. Oh, by the way, the girl who just brought us drinks is with

You came here all the way from Yunzhou, hehe!"

Gu Zhan twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "Do you understand it so clearly?"

Furukawa said speechlessly: "You didn't hide it. There are many people in my Gu family under your command now. Who can't see it?"

Gu Zhan smiled and said: "Yes, yes, but what's going on with those women, you still don't understand?"

"Well," Furukawa nodded and said, "That's right, then I won't introduce my girl to you, let's get down to business!"

Furukawa wiped his mouth and said: "The things you asked to inquire about a few days ago have gained some clues. Regarding Echigo three hundred years ago, my Gu family knows something, but everyone has always listened to it as a story. However,

According to you, those legends may be true.

The Echigo family was born in a Dongtian-level family three hundred years ago. It was once glorious. However, after the fall of Echigo, the Echigo family was liquidated and there was no trace in the end. Echigo had a very good reputation at first.

She can be called a virtuous queen of a generation."

Gu Zhan said in surprise: "The virtuous queen?"

"Yes," Furukawa said: "Part of the legend of Echigo does have historical facts that can be studied, but there are some strange ghost legends interspersed in the middle."

Gu Zhan frowned slightly and said, "Tell me more specifically."

Furukawa thought for a while and said: "In the past, I only listened to it as a story. It was said that when Echigo was thirty years old, he encountered an accident during a trip and lost his soul. The medicine and stone were useless, so he could only wait to die.

Just when nothing could be done, a wandering Taoist priest appeared and pulled Echigo back from the gate of hell. However, he left an instruction, saying that Echigo's spirit was unstable and he needed to pray for the fox at the Spirit Fox Cave in Qixia Mountain on the outskirts of Beijing.

The immortal has blessed me with three years.

Later, Echigo went to Linghu Cave according to what the Taoist said. He stayed there for three years. However, after returning from those three years, Echigo seemed to be a changed person. He used various means to clean up the harem again.

, and fascinated the emperor at that time, and started the reputation of causing disaster to the country and the people. The emperor refused to go to court all day long because of her, and abandoned three thousand beauties like worn-out shoes. He only favored Echigo, and even ignored the objections of the officials and allowed Echigo to come to the court.

, known in history as the coming of two saints.

There is another legend here, which is that Echigo has been possessed by a fox demon in the Spirit Fox Cave and has been replaced by a different person. Therefore, the Echigo who comes to court is not the real Echigo, but the real Echigo.

A vixen, of course, this thing is too similar to folk fantasy novels, so no one has ever believed it.

Later, the imperial court was gradually controlled by Echigo, and the emperor was reduced to a puppet. Echigo launched various wars, causing the people to live in dire straits. They were suppressed by the second Buddhist sect in the holy land of martial arts. It is rumored that two fifth-level cave heaven monks devoted their cultivation to

Only then suppressed.

This is the third legend, and the true historical record is that Echigo was seriously injured by two eminent monks from the second Buddhist sect, and finally led the Echigo family to directly rebel and was suppressed, and finally committed suicide in Zhaixinglou."

Gu Zhan frowned slightly and said: "Based on the information I have now, that legend is more likely to be true."

Furukawa nodded and said: "So, based on Echigo's legends and historical records, if it is possible to hide her inherited skills, the most likely place is the Spirit Fox Cave in the suburbs of Beijing. However, if it is

I'm afraid it might be a little troublesome to enter Linghu Cave now."

Gu Zhan asked: "Why?"

Furukawa said: "Linghu Cave is on Qixia Mountain, and Qixia Mountain is where the Huben Camp of the Beijing garrison is located. With your cultivation level, you can hope to sneak in. However, Linghu Cave is closed. You have to go in."

, either you have the key, or you have to break the cave door, and the key, as far as I know, is the military talisman of the Huben Camp. It is impossible to get it, and it is in your Majesty’s hand. And if you break the cave door, you will definitely alert the Huben Camp, and

Recently, you have been too conspicuous, and your every move has attracted much attention!"

Gu Zhan muttered: "Is there any way? If not, then I will have to force my way in. At worst, I will cover my face, and no one will be able to take off my mask!"

"No, no, no, no," Furukawa said hurriedly: "I'm just worried that you will have this idea. Don't worry. My sister said that she has a way to make it work. During this time, you should prepare for the court affairs step by step.

Your Majesty has been ill recently, and it seems to be quite serious. He has not gone to court for several days. The Huben camp needs regular inspections. It is very likely that the prince will go there. My sister has a way to do it, and then I can get it from the prince.

Borrowed the military talisman."

Gu Zhan nodded and said: "Okay, well, the emperor suddenly fell ill, what's going on?"

Furukawa shook his head and said: "I don't know. I suddenly became ill and couldn't go to court. The prince has been acting as the supervisor of the country these days. Even Qin You, the supervisor of Yunzhou Qintian Supervisor, was not allowed to return to the court to receive the title.

Delayed."

Gu Zhan frowned and said, "Then you still want me to be admitted to the capital?"

"It was announced that you fell ill on the second day after entering the capital." Furukawa said, "Furthermore, it is said that His Majesty had a dispute with the Queen in Weiyang Palace that day."

Gu Zhan chuckled and said: "The emperor is so small-minded, how can he get angry and sick after a quarrel with his wife?"

"Who knows," Furukawa shook his head and said, "In the past two days, the princes received the envoys from the Northern Wei Dynasty and the Southern Jin Dynasty when they entered Beijing."

Gu Zhan asked again: "Speaking of which, I am still a little confused. How come the Northern Wei Dynasty and Southern Jin Dynasty sent an envoy to the Xia Kingdom, why didn't I hear anything about it before?"

"Don't talk about you," Furukawa said: "Even I didn't know until the two countries' missions arrived in the suburbs of Beijing. However, the missions from the two countries did not come together, but one after another. It is said that it was because they were mutually exclusive.
