Chapter 109 – I’ll stay here and protect you
“Brother-in-law, is Sister Lian’er alright!”
Compared to Gu Yu’s calmness, Gu Qingheng was very anxious, eager to know if Tang Lian was in trouble!
If…
No, he couldn’t think blindly. What if it came true!
“She’s fine.”
“How do you know?”
“I guessed… After all, the Sect Leader of the Tang Sect is rumored to be fine and even joked with me in a letter! If Tang Lian were in trouble, she probably wouldn’t have written like this.”
After hearing his younger brother-in-law, Gu Yu casually replied, which made Gu Qingheng suspect for a moment, wondering why his brother-in-law was so sure that Sister Lian’er was fine.
Could it be that his brother-in-law had met Sister Lian’er without his knowledge!
Realizing he almost let slip, Gu Yu immediately stated… that he was just guessing, and waved the letter in his hand at Gu Qingheng.
Gu Yu’s reasoning was sound, and Gu Qingheng didn’t doubt him further. Instead, he felt relieved.
As long as Sister Lian’er was fine, that was all that mattered!
“Miss Tang Lian is not in the Tang Sect; she has been sent out on a mission.”
After Gu Yu and Gu Qingheng finished talking about Tang Lian, one of the big men who had been standing opposite them immediately spoke, telling them not to worry about Tang Lian and to worry about the injured elder instead!
If it weren’t for the antidote Gu Yu sent to the Tang Sect last time, the Tang Sect would have suffered heavy losses this time!
However, despite this, quite a few people still lost their lives.
This was because the He Sect had introduced a new poison…
Now, the Tang Sect and the He Sect had become mortal enemies.
As the conflict escalated, only one of the two sects could survive.
And now, their visit to Lian Town this time was not only to have Gu Yu treat the poisoned elder but also to invite Gu Yu to the Tang Sect in Lanzhou to hold the fort.
As long as Gu Yu was at the Tang Sect, no matter how many poisons the He Sect had, they would all be deciphered.
At this moment, upon hearing the big man’s words, Gu Yu found it difficult to refuse them further, otherwise his younger brother-in-law would get angry with him.
He could only wave his hand at them, signaling them to bring the patient over so he could examine the symptoms.
Gu Yu didn’t say he couldn’t treat it. After all, with the detoxification pills in his space, he could save any living being as long as they had a breath left.
“Brother-in-law, what exactly happened in the Tang Sect! Although Sister Lian’er is fine, the Tang Sect Leader’s situation doesn’t seem good!”
“What, are you worried about your future father-in-law now!”
“…”
After the two big men left, Gu Qingheng immediately asked Gu Yu, not understanding what had happened in the Tang Sect!
If something were to happen to the Tang Sect, Sister Lian’er would be very sad.
Gu Yu saw through Gu Qingheng’s thoughts at a glance, and the words that came out of his mouth made Gu Qingheng speechless, feeling that his brother-in-law was overthinking!
He’s just a prospective father-in-law!
“A formidable enemy has appeared in the Tang Sect. I originally thought I could deal with it, but… seeing that the development was going in the wrong direction, I came to seek my help.”
“Are they asking you, brother-in-law, to go to Lanzhou?”
Afterward, Gu Yu didn’t tease Gu Qingheng further but simply explained the situation of the Tang Sect. Gu Qingheng, after hearing the whole story, had new questions.
Why did the Tang Sect come to find his brother-in-law?
Even if his brother-in-law was very good at treating illnesses and saving lives, the Tang Sect didn’t know how powerful he was…
How could they be so sure… that Gu Yu could neutralize the poison!
“Of course! Is there anything else? However, being cooped up at home is quite boring. It wouldn’t hurt to go out for a stroll.”
Seeing the confusion on Gu Qingheng’s small face, Gu Yu felt a bit of a sweat, thinking that the agreement he had reached with the Tang Sect behind his younger brother-in-law’s back should not be exposed!
Although the Tang Sect Leader did not explicitly mention it in the letter, Gu Yu discovered that the other party wanted him to go to Lanzhou again.
As for what specific thing, besides helping to detoxify, there was nothing else.
Listening to the words of the two big men just now, the Tang Sect was also afraid of unknown poisons and did not want to experience it again.
As for such a request, Gu Yu did not directly refuse.
He was getting tired of staying at home recently, so it was a good opportunity to go out for a trip and relax.
He guessed that his little wife would think the same way.
“Go to Lanzhou? Yu, I can’t leave Lian Town. The county office needs my guidance.”
“…”
When Gu Yu excitedly found Gu Mengyao and spoke of going to Lanzhou, Gu Mengyao shook her head at this moment, saying that she still had the task of teaching the bailiffs.
If she went to Lanzhou with Gu Yu, she wouldn’t be able to return for a short period.
Now, the new bailiffs were at a critical stage of teaching, and Gu Mengyao did not want to give up halfway.
Who knew… what kind of state the bailiffs would be in after returning from Lanzhou.
“Is that so? Then I won’t go either. I just remembered the Empress’s reminder… I can’t leave Lian Town recently, otherwise what if something happens.”
“Brother-in-law, you can’t do this! The Tang Sect is at a critical juncture of life and death. If you don’t go, the entire sect will die.”
“If they die, they die. What does it have to do with me.”
After hearing that Gu Mengyao was not going, Gu Yu also lost the desire to go to Lanzhou. However, Gu Qingheng, upon hearing Gu Yu’s words, gained a deeper understanding of his brother-in-law’s inconsistency.
“Yu, the people from the Tang Sect have come to invite you. You should go and take a look!”
Because of Tang Lian, Gu Mengyao was also very worried about the Tang Sect. After speaking to Gu Yu, she saw Gu Yu show a wronged expression on his face.
If his little wife didn’t go to Lanzhou with him, he didn’t want to go either!
“If you’re afraid of being bored on the road, you can bring Qingheng along, and also Xi Yang and Little Red…”
“Madam, I’m not going. I’ll stay here and protect you.”
Then, upon hearing Gu Mengyao’s words, Little Red, who was learning to play poker cards nearby, quickly shook her head, stating that she would not leave.
She came here this time to protect Gu Mengyao, so how could she leave the Gu family and go to Lanzhou!
“Brother-in-law, you should go. I’ll accompany you! It will definitely be a very happy journey, and you won’t feel bored at all.”
“Just don’t cause me trouble…”
Hearing Little Red’s words, compared to Gu Yu’s depressed expression, Gu Qingheng appeared excited. He thought it was wonderful that his sister had agreed to go out!
If he were to go to Lanzhou this time, he must meet Sister Lian’er!
And Gu Yu didn’t hold out until the end. Under Gu Qingheng’s expectant gaze, he nodded, agreeing to go to Lanzhou to help the Tang Sect.
Looking at his little wife’s attitude, she intended to help the Tang Sect.
From a benefit perspective, helping the Tang Sect overcome this difficulty was equivalent to gaining a powerful ally.
Moreover, Gu Qingheng could also please his future father-in-law.
However, him being separated from Gu Mengyao for a period of time made Gu Yu’s mood very unhappy…
“Wait, Gu Laoda, I don’t want to go to Lanzhou either.”
Just then, Xi Yang’s voice suddenly sounded in the courtyard.
