The brother and sister looked at each other silently, and the room was filled with suffocation and calmness, only the nervous and strong breathing of Madam Pang echoed in the air.

Silence is like an invisible net slowly tightening.

Looking at Gu Yuan who was silent, Gu Yanfei's eyelashes drooped slightly, casting a shadow on her white cheeks.

She sighed in her heart, but was not disappointed.

It was normal for Gu Yuan to not doubt what happened back then. At that time, Gu Yuan was only three years old. What did the three-year-old child know and what disease he had? Naturally, what the wife said would be whatever she said.

Furthermore, most people probably can't remember many things when they were three or four years old.

Just like her, two hundred years later, she has forgotten many people and many things... Until recently, she slowly recalls some of the perhaps insignificant details.

Gu Yanfei raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows. A feeling of fatigue surged up uncontrollably, and he came in a fierce manner, but he suddenly heard Gu Yuan say, "By the way, my father seemed to have asked me back then..."

Madam Pang suddenly opened her eyes wide, her body trembled violently, and she didn't even notice the veil in her hand.

Even Gu Yanfei was lost for a moment at this moment, his eyes slightly opened, and his heart trembled violently.

She asked softly, "What's next?"

Gu Yuan took a deep breath and tried to calm the surging tide in his heart. He seemed to have a gas in his chest, which was stuffy and heavy. He continued: "Later, my father took Gu Yun'an and I to Yangzhou together until..."

His voice was getting slower and lower, and finally came to an abrupt end.

He didn't say it any more, but everyone present understood his unfinished words-

Until Yangzhou fell!

Gu Yuan's eyes became extremely deep, and he pursed his lips. Eight years have passed, but what happened back then is still deeply engraved in his heart, leaving scars that will never be erased.

In that battle, he lost his father. Everyone said that his father had treasoned the country and surrendered the enemy, and even his grandmother felt humiliated for his father...

His world suddenly collapsed!

Gu Yuan's expression remained motionless, and a faint sadness appeared in his whole body.

Gu Yanfei stared at Gu Yuan's cold side face in a daze, his eyes a little dazed and a little cool, as if he was staring through him at the man she had never seen in two lives.

Her father...

"Bang!"

The door of the main hall was suddenly kicked open from outside rudely, making a "creaking" sound, and one of the doors was even kicked to the ground and fell into two halves.

Outside the main hall, three people could be seen standing under the eaves outside the gate.

Walking in the center was Xiahou Qing in red, and standing by him were two relatives, one old and one young.

Xiahou Qing's clothes were as bright as fire, and were still as spotless as before;

The other two were covered in dust and in a mess, as if they were rolling around in dust and gravel.

Xiahou Qing glanced at him with disgust and looked at him with a slight move. The two fingers of his right hand moved slightly. The old man with silver hair took a step back tactfully and took another half.

"..." The Huang Wei family was left behind by Xiahou Qing and the other two, with awkward expression, thinking that the guest who stayed at him was too rude. She just said that the girl had something to do with the eldest master, but the other party insisted on breaking through!

Gu Yanfei's eyes turned around the brand new big red shirt on Xiahou Qing, but he couldn't find any dust. He thought to himself: What a pity.

Xiahou Qing didn't say a word, as if he was not uninvited, but the master here.

He stepped across the threshold and walked into the main hall with a expressionless face, walked straight ahead, then lifted his robe and sat down on the top of the Grand Master's chair with a glamorous and arrogant attitude.

"I live here today." Xiahou Qing declared shamelessly, intending to occupy the main courtyard with the guest.

The silver-haired old man did not enter the house immediately, but stood in the corridor and clenched his high-highlights.

"Play!"

The next moment, a row of men in black quickly walked into the main yard, and everyone was not empty-handed. The screens, incense burners, whisks, chair cushions, red mud stoves, tea sets and other items were all moved in one by one and arranged them one by one.

A series of dark red curtains were pulled up from the beams of the room, and a three-colored red sandalwood throne screen was placed on the east side. A dark red Persian wool carpet was laid on the ground. A red sandalwood tee chair was brought again, and a big red embroidered golden thread kirin welcome pillow was placed.

Someone else placed an emerald carved dragon button three-legged incense burner in the corner behind the screen...

Their movements were very skillful and skillful, and they seemed to have done them countless times. In just a while, the surroundings of Xiahou Qing were newly arranged.

All these ornaments are exquisite and gorgeous, and each item is priceless, decorating such an ordinary main hall into a magnificent palace.

A thin stream of blue smoke rose from the incense burner and spread in the air. The fragrance was unique, clear and sweet, and with a hint of sweetness.

Gu Yanfei was stunned and complained in his heart: Will Xiahou Qing still have to carry all the things in the house with him when he goes out?

"Master, drink tea." A man in black made a pot of tea for Xiahou Qing on the spot.

A pure and elegant tea fragrance wafted over, Gu Yanfei's nose moved and his eyes lit up.

This tea has a high and clear fragrance, pure and sharp fragrance, thick and pure, and is definitely a top-quality tea.

In an instant, Gu Yanfei felt that the cup of plum blossom tea in his hand became boring.

The old man with silver hair, known as the old Qi, walked silently towards Gu Yanfei and others, with a straight posture as a rod, and said in a cold tone: "Our Lord likes tranquility and does not like noise. Please, please."

He naturally issued a "exit order".

"..." Gu Yanfei regretted it, thinking that she should have drawn an extra thunder and fire talisman on the paper crane just now, so that the entire house would collapse.

Chu Yi drank the plum blossom tea in the cup gracefully, his movements and postures were as pleasing as usual, and he ignored Xiahou Qing and his group's behavior and ignored it.

After carefully savoring the tea, Chu Yi said lightly: "Young Master Xiahou is here for my great view, but for the sake of "Taizu's Notes"?"

His soft voice slowly rang out, a faint smile appeared on his face, and his eyes were so bright that it seemed to see through everything in the world, reflecting the room.

After talking, the room was silent. Apart from the sound of boiling water on the small red mud furnace, there was no other sound. The men in black brought by Xiahou Qing seemed to have no quietness at all.

Xiahou Qing ignored it and glanced at the dust on the table with disgust, took out a new handkerchief, wiped his hands slowly and stroked his sleeves.

What is Taizu's note? This is the first time Gu Yanfei heard Taizu's note, and he held his chin and looked at Chu Yi on his right hand.

Her black and white eyes seemed to be able to speak, and Chu Yi suddenly understood what she meant.

"This is the note left by my great-grandfather during his lifetime." Chu Yi smiled at her, and his handsome face became softer with this smile, and was as gentle as the spring breeze. "The great-grandfather recorded many thoughts on those note that he had not had time to realize during his lifetime."

"Great-grandfather wanted to improve looms, sea boats, gunpowder, steelmaking... He also said that the wine here was too light and was not worthy of being called wine at all. He had a way to make real wine."

Gu Yanfei was focused and as he listened, his mind moved.

She always felt that some of the things Chu Yi described looked familiar, and she seemed to have seen them somewhere.

Where is it?

Gu Yanfei tried hard to search for his memories, from near to far.

She was reborn not long ago, so she was sure that it was not this life, that was the previous life... When was the previous life?

Chu Yi said with a smile: "My great-grandfather is an interesting madman. He has many fantastic ideas, saying that people can fly one day, that cars can reach thousands of miles away within two days when driving on the track, that there is a kind of 'cannon' that can kill people in a city at once..."

As he said that, his eyes slightly raised his eyes and looked at Xiahou Qing, who was on his head, and his eyes swayed in the candlelight.

The screen blocked Xiahou Qing's figure, leaving only a clear outline silhouette.

Xiahou Qing behind the screen was drinking tea in a pretentious manner, and his strange red lips sneered behind the teacup.

He didn't take Chu Yi's words seriously. This young master Yi was clearly testing himself!

Gu Yanfei thought seriously, thought seriously, and focused harder, but the harder she worked, the harder she was to concentrate...

Her eyes suddenly turned dark, and several heavy shadows swayed across, and her upper body shook for a while, almost falling down.

She quickly helped her forehead and heard Xiahou Qing sneering with a hint of mocking sneer from the direction of her head.

She regretted it again.

If she hadn't really had spiritual power, she would have drawn hundreds of fire thunder talismans and killed him.

Gu Yanfei's consciousness was a little erratic, and then she shuddered.

That night, she was drawing talismans, telling fortunes, and confronting tits. Both her spirit and physical strength had reached its limit, especially because of the lack of spiritual energy here, she was using her life to make a fortune, and her whole body was almost hollowed out.

"It's time for you to rest." Chu Yi's gentle voice was like the spring breeze and rain.

Indeed, Gu Yanfei never forced himself to get up obediently.

But she was so tired that as soon as she stood up, she felt a strong sense of fatigue sweeping over, her eyes were heavy, and her feet began to float again.

Chu Yi held her with a clear and quick hand, with a gentle smile in his eyes and beautiful eyebrows.

The look seemed to be saying, he is.

Gu Yanfei's eyes became a little dazed again, and he raised his lips and showed a tired and powerless smile at him.

The heavy eyelids finally hang down, and endless darkness surged...

Before the darkness completely overwhelmed her consciousness, the last thought in her mind was—

Where did she see this note?
