Chapter 94: Clearing Out Space +
[Mengyao Gu’s Favorability +50, Space is Upgrading…]
Gu Yu originally thought that after he directly produced two books, Mengyao Gu might hesitate.
After all, it would be very difficult to learn both books!
To his surprise, Mengyao Gu readily agreed without any hesitation, which made Gu Yu a little stunned. Then, recalling Mengyao Gu’s desperate efforts when practicing lightness skills before, he didn’t find it strange anymore.
His little wife seemed to be a martial arts fanatic…
“Mengyao, although I don’t object, you must pay attention to your health and don’t overdo it! These martial arts can be learned sooner or later, so you don’t need to push yourself too hard.”
“Ah Yu, don’t worry! I don’t feel tired when I practice martial arts. Although my body is tired, I am very happy in my heart because I like this feeling of gradually getting stronger.”
After handing the two books to Mengyao Gu, Gu Yu spoke with some concern, afraid that Mengyao Gu would get more and more into practicing and eventually neglect her own health.
However, after hearing Gu Yu’s words, Mengyao Gu smiled and shook her head, indicating that she would not be so foolish as to joke with her health.
However, one cannot be slack in practicing martial arts!
Dripping water can wear through stone, it takes more than a day.
Everything is like this, one must persevere to make further progress.
Just like the newly acquired spear technique, Mengyao Gu was determined to practice it well and strive to see results as soon as possible… Before, on the battlefield, Mengyao Gu envied those soldiers who could fight enemies with swords and guns.
When it was her turn, she could only escape with lightness skills…
Perhaps it was the hidden warlike nature deep in her heart that made Mengyao Gu wish she could practice now and see if she looked imposing when wielding a spear… But seeing Gu Yu in front of her, Mengyao Gu still suppressed this thought for the time being.
Ah Yu definitely wouldn’t want to see her liking to practice martial arts so much…
Seeing the joy and excitement on Mengyao Gu’s face, Gu Yu finally confirmed that his wife was indeed a martial arts fanatic, absolutely no doubt about it!
It seemed that in the future, to please Mengyao Gu, all he had to do was to produce a few martial arts manuals, and he would definitely gain a lot of favorability and Mengyao Gu’s affection.
Afterward, seeing his little wife looking eager to try, Gu Yu smiled indulgently, then pretended to cough twice, and told Mengyao Gu that he was going to the town for a stroll and asked her to guard the house.
Upon hearing Gu Yu’s words, Mengyao Gu immediately nodded her head repeatedly like a little chick pecking at rice, promising to guard the house well.
Seeing Mengyao Gu’s cute appearance, whose thoughts couldn’t be hidden, Gu Yu couldn’t help but tilt the corners of his mouth, seize the opportunity to lean in and steal a kiss. When his little wife’s cheeks turned red from the kiss, Gu Yu then satisfiedly lifted his foot and left home, wandering towards the town. **
Now, it’s better to let Mengyao Gu try the spear technique alone!
Although Gu Yu was not very willing for Mengyao Gu to practice the spear technique, worried that Mengyao Gu might hurt herself during the practice, he couldn’t resist Mengyao Gu’s own preference, so Gu Yu could only turn a blind eye.
If he really disagreed, Gu Yu would not have brought the two books in front of Mengyao Gu to give her a chance to practice.
Sometimes, Gu Yu didn’t want to interfere too much with Mengyao Gu’s choices.
After all, his little wife could make up her own mind, and he only needed to be by her side.
However, if Mengyao Gu mastered the spear technique to perfection, then he would be even less of a match for Mengyao Gu!
If there were domestic violence in the future, it would definitely be Mengyao Gu who made the move… Of course, Gu Yu also had a way to deal with this situation. He could directly escape into the space and wait for Mengyao Gu’s anger to subside.
Wait, his little wife wasn’t that violent at all!
From the time they first met until now, Mengyao Gu had never laid a hand on him, but she had acted against others quite a few times…
Thinking about these things, Gu Yu then arrived in town and began to wander aimlessly.
The main purpose of coming out of the house this time was to clear out space for Mengyao Gu to try out the new spear technique, so Gu Yu currently had no plans.
He planned to stroll around the town a few times before going home.
However, what Gu Yu didn’t expect was… he ran into people from the Tang Sect just by coming to town to stroll.
This time, they were still searching for people in the street, but it had changed from searching for Tang Wenshi to searching for Feng Xuanyuan and her group. This made Gu Yu think that Tang Wenshi’s father was truly trusting, not realizing yet that his son was already dead.
Instead, the group who killed Tang Wenshi kept appearing before Gu Yu!
This gave Gu Yu a feeling that he was a free laborer cleaning up pests for the Tang Sect…
As for why Gu Yu was sure these people were part of Feng Xuanyuan’s group, it was because people from the Tang Sect had approached him again, making Gu Yu wonder why he was always so “lucky”!
Next, it was time to act.
“Little brother, I’d like to ask if you’ve seen this woman?”
The person who approached Gu Yu this time was wearing black clothes, with a common and unremarkable face, with no distinguishing features.
However, he had a wine gourd hanging from his waist, which allowed Gu Yu to successfully find a nickname for him.
Gourd Man.
When the Gourd Man took out a piece of paper from his embrace and quickly unfolded it, Gu Yu clearly saw a portrait of Feng Xuanyuan printed on it, which was quite similar to her real appearance!
The craftsmanship in Linfeng Kingdom was truly impressive!
However, Gu Yu’s expression didn’t change much. Only a hint of confusion suddenly appeared in his eyes, as if he was trying hard to recall whether he had seen this woman before.
Seeing Gu Yu’s appearance of trying hard to recall, the Gourd Man couldn’t help but become nervous, thinking that this child might have really seen Feng Xuanyuan and the others!
Since Elder Jiang sent them to find someone but couldn’t find any trace of Feng Xuanyuan and the others, they were extremely anxious, fearing that something had happened to Feng Xuanyuan and the others, and they wouldn’t be able to explain it to Elder Jiang!
However, after searching for two days, they still hadn’t found Feng Xuanyuan and the others, which gave them a bad premonition, thinking that Feng Xuanyuan might have really met with an accident!
Since Lian Town was an unfamiliar place, those who came to look for Feng Xuanyuan could only adopt a crude method, casting a wide net to see if they could find any clues, thereby obtaining information about Feng Xuanyuan.
“No, I don’t live in Lian Town. Today, my father just brought me to town to play. You can ask my father… Huh? Where did my father go! Uncle, my father is lost, can you help me find him?”
“Cough, cough, I have something to do, you can look slowly.”
However, after Gu Yu couldn’t remember anything and even asked for his help to find someone, the Gourd Man quickly made an excuse, saying he had other things to do and no time to help the child find anyone.
How could someone his age lose their parents… This child looked good, but he didn’t expect him to have a brain like a straw bag, good-looking but useless.
After finding no clues from Gu Yu, the Gourd Man prepared to leave and try his luck elsewhere, perhaps finding Feng Xuanyuan and the others.
“Uncle, wait, I remember!”
“What do you remember?”
“I saw this woman. Last time I came to the market with my dad to sell grain, I seemed to have seen her once. She was wearing a pink dress and a butterfly hairpin, which sparkled in the sunlight, stunning me! It was obvious that it was worth a lot of money, as the craftsmanship was very good, even the wooden carvings made by the father of the neighbor Wang Ergou…”
“Stop, I ask you, what did this woman do afterwards, and where did she go?”
Just as the Gourd Man was about to leave, Gu Yu no longer concealed it. Instead, he exclaimed “Aiya!” and clapped his hands together, finally remembering that he had indeed seen Feng Xuanyuan in person, successfully stopping the Gourd Man from leaving.
And after hearing Gu Yu’s detailed description, the Gourd Man was sure that the person Gu Yu was talking about was indeed Feng Xuanyuan!
Now, they had finally found someone!
However, before the Gourd Man could get too excited, he immediately stopped Gu Yu from continuing after hearing Gu Yu talk for a long time about useless things, wanting to know Feng Xuanyuan’s whereabouts immediately.
Children just can’t grasp the point.
Is that hairpin important now? The important thing is the person’s well-being!
Gu Yu’s expression immediately showed displeasure after being interrupted, and then he gave the Gourd Man a gloomy look before turning around and leaving, not wanting to talk to the Gourd Man anymore.
Seeing this, the Gourd Man thought, well, it’s better to pay to avoid disaster!
Reluctantly, Gu Yu took out a ten tael silver note from his embrace and handed it to Gu Yu. Only then did Gu Yu stop and turn around with a smile, continuing to say what he hadn’t finished saying earlier.
“I don’t know where that woman went, but there was a man in black who was very intimate with her… I secretly followed that woman because I really liked that butterfly hairpin, wanting to see her more, but I saw her having a secret affair with the man in black, doing some ‘shy’ things.”
“Secret affair!!!”
Then, hearing Gu Yu’s words, the Gourd Man first exclaimed in surprise, and then his brows furrowed tightly, thinking that Tang Wenshi naturally liked to wear white clothes, so it definitely wasn’t him.
Then, who was this man in black, and why was he so intimate with Feng Xuanyuan?
“Yes, I saw them kissing, and they were saying something like ‘midnight’, ‘birds of a feather, branches of a tree’, ‘taking the treasure away’…”
“Anything else?”
“I vaguely heard these things, and I didn’t dare to get too close at the time.”
“Bad, has Feng Xuanyuan already had an adulterous lover and betrayed us…”
After hearing the few words Gu Yu spoke, the Gourd Man’s expression changed drastically, and then he subconsciously said a few words before turning around and leaving without caring about what Gu Yu did, preparing to tell his accomplices about this matter.
If Feng Xuanyuan really had a lover, even if she killed Tang Wenshi, she would have probably already taken the treasure and fled.
To think that Elder Jiang trusted her so much, allowing her to handle this important matter, but Feng Xuanyuan turned out to be an ungrateful person who repaid kindness with enmity, and now everything had gone to waste.
I wonder what Elder Jiang’s reaction would be upon hearing about this matter…
