However, Xiaocui's envy was quickly put away, and she returned to her normal state. She came to them, bowed to them Yingying, and told the other party that the master had something to do and couldn't receive them for the time being, but the mistress asked them to come in first. Rest, and wait until the master has time to receive the other party.

Gu Zheng has no objection, anyway, he can see each other sooner or later. As for the letter, the mistress took it away and handed it to the head of the family.

Xiao Cui led Gu Zheng and the others in front, and walked towards the guest room for the time being.

Sure enough, on the way, everyone along the way saw them standing in a daze, staring at them, as if they were looking at something strange.

Gu Zheng turned a blind eye to all this and stared straight ahead.

As for Xiaolan and the others, with their sharp eyes, it seemed that they couldn't see through such a luxurious mansion, but the front yard made them walk for ten minutes, and they were still shuttling through the corridors until now.

After waiting for a stick of incense, Xiao Cui arranged them into four different wing rooms. Although it was only a temporary residence for guests, it was no less luxurious than the master bedroom of a wealthy family.

After Xiao Cui left here, others came to Gu Zheng's room one after another.

Because it was Gu Zheng's decision to come here, they just followed him here.

"Master Gu, why do we pretend to be relatives of their family, will they find out?" Shuang'er asked worriedly.

"It doesn't matter, the main purpose of coming here is to let everyone have a temporary residence." This is why Gu Zheng agreed to them easily, because thinking that if there is some chaos outside, Shuang'er might not be able to take care of the two of them, so he simply brought them here first here.

As for the identities of the relatives, as long as the other party still recognizes the jade pendant, nothing will be a problem. After all, it is something given to him by the grand elder of the Star Alliance. The other party's family still exists. If nothing happens, they will definitely recognize each other. How could the elder give it to him, and he would definitely not cheat him.

"Really? That's great. I didn't expect that I could live in such a luxurious place." Ah Shao said happily from the side, looking at the things in the house, he randomly picked out a house that was better than the one they lived in before. , to be valuable.

"It's not for you to enjoy. I've told you that although your cultivation base has been greatly improved, it's because of me. Next, you should practice hard and consolidate in this realm. When will you be able to deal with ten people? I'm thinking about continuing." Break through, otherwise it will be a huge obstacle to your future growth." Gu Zheng said to them with a straight face.

"Understood, we won't relax, master." Ah Shuai smiled, he has now figured out Gu Zheng's character, it seems strict, but as long as you complete what you should do, even if you are a little out of line, you will not will punish you.

"Just know, Shuang'er, you all go back," Gu Zheng said to them, wanting to be quiet for a while.

Although Shuang'er still had many problems, she had no choice but to go back and leave Gu Zheng alone.

At this time, Gu Zheng's spiritual sense had already scanned the entire Xu Mansion, and he did not find Zhao Man, but he could feel the traces left by the other party, but it was already very faint.

The last time I saw that young man named himself Xu, Gu Zheng suspected that he had something to do with the Xu family. This is why he came here without any hesitation, not just to find a temporary foothold for Shuang'er and the others, at least any monsters and ghosts can be seen here. Don't have the guts to invade the home of a high official.

The main thing is to find some clues for Zhao Man. Even if Bei Chen is weak, it is not a cat or a dog that can be defeated by the other party. Now the two people perceive that their living conditions are similar, and they seem to be trapped in a certain place in Fengcheng, but it seems that they are not. In Fengcheng.

However, Gu Zheng believed that with Bei Chen's protection, Zhao Man could not be dealt with even if he was present, not to mention a short while. Among the monster races that have survived since ancient times, which one is the simple one.

Unknowingly, soon in the evening, one person knocked on everyone's door one at a time, and finally came to Gu Zheng's door.

Gu Zheng didn't wait for the other party to knock on the door, and opened the door directly. Outside the door stood a servant who had just raised his hand to knock on the door, followed by Shuang'er and Ah Shuan Xiaolan. Seeing that the door opened automatically, although the servant The man was very surprised, but he still folded his arms and said respectfully.

"My lord, my master is free, and his wife is waiting for you in the living room. Let me show you the way."

Although he looked like a servant, he was actually one of the master's confidantes, but he didn't treat them with a different attitude.

Although there are some inexplicable things that come to Xu's mansion every year to fight the autumn wind, such relatives are indeed extremely rare. After all, those things are instigated by someone. At most, I will lock up the other party and beat him up at most, but They must not dare to use such a thing. If the master really finds out, then they don't want to get out alive.

That means that among them, at least one of them is the identity of the real relative of the master, and the identity he found out from Xiaocui before him, of course, he thinks that this young man is the most likely one.

Moreover, when my master asked me to come over, his expression was obviously dignified, and he was sure that the other party's identity was unusual. Thinking of the recent situation, it is not difficult to say that he is not someone who has supported outside.

On the other hand, Gu Zheng nodded directly, followed behind, and went straight to Xu's living room.

At this time, in the living room of Xu's family, there was a graceful and luxurious lady with a kind face. Although she was over fifty years old, she was well maintained and looked like she was thirty years old, very young.

This person is the mistress who let Gu Zheng and the others come in, behind him are two maids standing pretty, one of them is Xiao Cui.

"Master, the other party dared to come to the door with confidence, and he still has a token in his hand. It is probably not fake. It's just that I don't know who the other party is, and he came to the door at this time."

"I see, it might be a poor relative of something. Although the token bears the logo of our Xu family, it seems to be thousands of years old. I haven't seen anyone use it. Maybe it can't survive. Come to join us, now that our family is in troubled times, it is better to give the other party some money to send away, so as to save us some trouble."

On the opposite side of the eldest lady, there is an obviously young and beautiful woman who looks like she is twenty-four years old. This person is the youngest lady that the master only accepted a few years ago. She is obviously favored a lot. The only fly in the ointment is that this She hadn't conceived a son or daughter for several years, which made her temper gradually a little irritable.

At this moment, she looked at the master, what she said just now was her, it was not that she was against the master, but she was telling the truth.

Because they have some relatives, people often come to fight Qiufeng. Of course, they dare not use the name of the Xu family, but use the name of Mrs. XX to ask for some money or ask the master to do something.

It's not that an individual can use the Xu family's name.

"See what the other party wants. If it's not too much, try to satisfy it. No matter what, the other party is indeed holding a token from the Xu family. No matter what, our Xu family can't ignore him."

Xu Jing, the Patriarch of the Xu family, is also nearly sixty years old, but his head is already gray, but he is well-maintained, his complexion looks ruddy, and he looks like he is in his forties. He took a sip before deciding.

"What the master said is that our family can't lose out to our own family, or we will let others think about our family." The eldest lady said with a smile, not minding that the third lady opposite her had a different opinion from her, she looked like a good wife and mother.

"It's what the master says. I'm just giving you a reference." The third lady said not to be outdone.

Seeing this, Xu Jing was also very satisfied.

The eldest lady is the woman I am marrying when I am young, and I can't help being considerate, and I think about myself in every way, but I do everything in an orderly manner, so that people can't pick the thorns. It was she who helped herself take care of it and never let herself worry about it.

As for the youngest wife, although she is a bit jealous, she is still on the whole towards her own family. With her delicate and considerate thoughts, it is easy to understand other people's temperament. Usually, it is the black face who acts as the eldest lady.

Sometimes her objection is actually just a supplement without leaving any trace, of course I know it.

This time I came to see my so-called relative, and what exactly I wanted to do, Xu Jing had various thoughts in his mind.

At this time, the maid outside the door hurried in and said to Xu Jing and the others who had been waiting for a long time.

"My lord, Xu Wei has already brought the guests outside, do you want to summon them now?"

"Ask Xu Wei to bring someone in." Xu Jing, who had been rubbing the jade pendant in his hand, also stopped moving, and ordered to the following.

"yes"

The maid turned around and went out again, ordering to the people outside.

Following the sound of several footsteps, Gu Zheng and his group arrived in this hall soon.

"Wow, Xiaolan, look, it's really gorgeous here. Look, the calligraphy and painting on it are actually framed with gold plating. Tsk tsk, it's really extravagant." As soon as Ah Shao came in, he was stunned again. , Every new place will refresh his vision.

"Brother, don't talk about it." Xiaolan said in a low voice, speechless, her brother looked like a bumpkin entering the city, and she felt a little embarrassed, embarrassing the master and the others.

The three of Xu Jing and the others looked at each other amusedly at this scene. Although the little girl behind her seemed to be persuading others, her own eyes were also full of shock. The two people walking in front were smiling and didn't say anything. Was shocked by the luxury here.

"You came here to look for relatives. I don't know who your parents or grandparents are. To be honest, I want to see which generation you belong to." Xu Jing coughed lightly and said to Gu Zheng in front of him, leaving no trace To explore the other party's family background.

"Gu Zheng, this is my younger sister Shuang'er, and the latter is my new apprentice." Gu Zheng hesitated and introduced himself.

"Yeah." Xu Jing picked up the tea again, just glanced at the two children, he didn't have any cultivation base, but looking at his confident body, he probably has a high cultivation base.

He was waiting for Gu Zheng to continue, but after drinking a few sips of tea, he was surprised to find that Gu Zheng had shut his mouth.

"What? Don't you want to continue talking about your ancestral home? Although you have the Xu family's token, you still have to go through the process." Xu Jing said puzzled.

At the same time, the two wives and other maids looked at them curiously, and it seemed that they were not such impolite people.

"Patriarch Xu, didn't you carefully read the token I gave you?" Gu Zheng also looked surprised, not understanding what happened.

When the great elder gave it to himself, he said that as long as he left it with the Xu family, he would be able to find the message that the ancestor left for them, but looking at it like this, it seemed that the other party didn't know it at all.

"Look, did you just pick up this thing by accident?" Xu Jing put the jade pendant in front of his eyes, and suddenly thought of this question.

But here, Gu Zheng discovered that the Xu Patriarch above turned out to be an ordinary person with no cultivation, but there was a sense of righteousness in his body, which made him think that he was still a person with good cultivation.

"Patriarch Xu, you call out the general who guards you, and I will tell him that you will understand." Gu Zheng said with his hands clasped.

"I'm going to see what the mystery is." Xu Jing raised his head, looked at Gu Zheng with bright eyes, and waited for a while before saying.

It seems that there is some information hidden in this jade pendant, maybe the other party is here to give this jade pendant, no matter what, the other party should be a friend rather than an enemy, so I have to take a look to see what is there.

"Papa..." Xu Jing patted his hands lightly, and heard a middle-aged man with a steady breath walk in from outside the living room, wearing casual clothes, walking straight in front of Xu Jing.

In fact, Gu Zheng had already discovered that the other party was hiding around. Of course, he was not the only one. There were at least four fifth-level immortal cultivators near this house, and one of them was even directly hidden on the roof.

Although those monsters can't get close to here, they can't stop some people with ulterior motives, so they have the necessary protection all the time.

Gu Zheng moved his lips slightly, and the guard looked at Gu Zheng in surprise, then nodded to express his understanding.

"My lord, please close your eyes."

Then the middle-aged guard put his fingers together, and a layer of faint green light appeared on it, and then slowly touched Xu Jing's eyes, and a layer of fluorescent green light appeared outside his eyes.

"Okay, my lord, please open your eyes."

This is just a small spell to clear the eyes and clear the heart, a small trick that basically all cultivators know, and if it is used by ordinary people, it can make him see things that he cannot see.

At this time, Xu Jing looked at the jade pendant in his hand again. It was completely different from before, with many blurred characters appearing inside the jade pendant, but it was still recognizable.

Xu Jing looked carefully and recognized it, but in the eyes of others, the jade pendant was still the same without any change.

In fact, Gu Zheng has seen it a long time ago. In fact, there is nothing wrong with it. He just said that holding this jade pendant is a distinguished guest of the Xu family, as if he came in person. What is his identity.

There is nothing else, it stands to reason that the above will be finished soon, but at this moment Xu Jing is still frowning, as if he is thinking about something.

Soon, the green glow of his eye injury began to dim. It must be that the opponent rarely casts this spell, resulting in a short time.

"Hurry up, give it to me again." Xu Jing hurriedly closed his eyes and ordered.

After the guard cast it again, Xu Jing opened his eyes again, and it wasn't until the end of the spell that Xu Jing suddenly realized what he seemed to understand.

Under the puzzled eyes of everyone, Xu Jing bit one of his fingers, forcing a drop of blood onto the jade pendant in his hand, and slowly blended into it.

"Is there a password in it that I don't know?" A thought flashed in Gu Zheng's mind.

When the drop of blood completely melted into the jade pendant, the entire jade pendant was radiant, and suddenly surrounded Xu Jing.

The lady and maid next to her were shocked, and hurriedly stood up and looked up.

"Shua Shua"

A few hidden figures rushed out quickly and surrounded Gu Zheng and the others, suspecting that they were responsible.

And the guard in front of Xu Jing tried to save him, but as soon as he touched the white light, his whole body was thrown away.

But Gu Zheng's expression remained unchanged, because it was impossible to harm him, he could only say that there was a riddle hidden in it that only the Xu family could understand, otherwise it would not have caused such a change.

Fortunately, the change came and went suddenly, and before they could speak, the ray of light dissipated, revealing Xu Jing inside again.

"My lord, are you alright?" The guard who was ejected before returned quickly again, apparently without any injuries.

"It's okay, I know what's going on with that thing, you all get back." Xu Jing, who looked a little tired, rubbed his eyes and said.

"yes!"

Seeing what Xu Jing said, the guards glanced at each other and obeyed orders to leave here again.

"Master, what's the matter? You're exhausting me." The lady next to him stepped forward, took out a handkerchief to wipe his sweat, and said distressedly.

"Is there something wrong with that jade pendant?" The third lady also stood up and said.

"No, there is nothing wrong with this jade pendant, and it comes from someone who I would call an elder." Xu Jing felt much better at this time, and explained to his two beloved wives.

"Gu Zheng, right, I welcome you all here." Xu Jing breathed a sigh of relief, motioned his beloved wife to go down, and then welcomed him.

This surprised the little lady, the tone was obviously different from before, I don't know if it was her illusion, it seemed to be a little respectful.

"Yes, I don't know if I can stay?" Gu Zheng nodded and said, although he didn't know what happened, but it was always developing in a good direction.

"Hehe, of course you can. If you are in terms of seniority, you are still my nephew. Don't worry. When you are here, if you have any problems, just ask me. If I am not here, you can find anyone who will solve it for you." "Xu Jing laughed haha, and walked down from the steps, coming to Gu Zheng.

"Come, come, nephew, I really don't know about your past situation. Come with me to the side hall and talk about your situation in those years. No one else is allowed to come with you. I want to have a good chat with my nephew."

"Okay, uncle." Gu Zheng knew clearly that the other party gave him an identity so that he could stay reasonably, and it seemed that he had the same thing as he said.

Of course I don't mind recognizing an uncle, and signaled Shuang'er and the others to stay here, and followed Xu Jing towards the side hall.
