As soon as Zhao Ran walked outside the Shence Gate, he received the flying talisman from Dongfang Li. After a day of treatment, Old Man Gu, master and apprentice, had recovered. Dongfang Li said that this time he finally figured out the other party's real name. His surname was "Gu" and his first name was "Ke Xue". "Gu Kexue" and "Guke Xue" were both his pseudonyms.
Zhao Ran was stunned, and then he remembered that in the practice certificate issued a few days ago, there was a monk named "Gu Ke Xue", but he didn't expect it to be him. No wonder he didn't go to claim the prize or buy a lottery ticket later. After causing trouble for a long time, he was imprisoned in the prison of Xuantan Palace. This is really It's hard to explain
Dongfang Li said that Gu Kexue agreed to confess everything he knew and provide sufficient evidence to confirm his confession, but there was a prerequisite: he had to meet Zhao Ran.
Dongji Pavilion's secret stronghold outside Shuibo Gate has expanded a lot. According to the information revealed by Zhao Ran, Wei Chaozong purchased the two courtyards on the west side, spending a total of more than eighty taels of silver, and the current price has doubled. More than double.
Dongfang Li also represented Sanqing Pavilion and took over a large courtyard adjacent to the south. After connecting it with the courtyard of Dongji Pavilion, it became a large courtyard covering an area of ??nearly eight acres.
Before buying the land, both Dongfang Li and Wei Chaozong had the idea of ????making a small profit, but after buying it, they were reluctant to sell it. To be honest, making more than a hundred taels of silver through land speculation was a big deal for the two pavilions. To be honest, I didn't like it, so I just renovated it.
After the renovation, we worked together to build a rockery in the middle of the courtyard where the two houses were connected to separate the plots, and decorated it with a few large rocks from the river, which was quite interesting.
Dongfang Li and Wei Chaozong both stood under the rockery. When they saw Zhao Ran arriving, they motioned to the rockery, which was only two or three feet high, so Zhao Ran climbed up.
Gu Kexue stood on the top of the rockery and looked at the fishing fires by the river on the north side of the courtyard wall, his face full of nostalgia.
Zhao Ran walked up to him, put his hands behind his back, watched with him for a moment, and then asked: "I heard that Senior Gu wants to see me?"
Gu Kexue turned around and said, "I don't dare to call myself senior. I am asking to see Abbot Zhao because I want to thank the Abbot for saving his life. Without the abbot's help, Gu and several of his disciples would no longer be alive at this moment."
Zhao Ran smiled and said bluntly: "Actually, there is no need to thank me. I saved you because I wanted to eliminate the cancer in Xiu'an. If Senior Gu is truly grateful, he will fully cooperate with the two pavilions' questioning."
Gu Kexue nodded and said, "Okay, but I still want to talk to you."
"Senior Gu, please tell me."
"If I fully cooperate with the two pavilions, can you give me and my disciples a chance?"
"what chance?"
"In the past, I didn't have a choice, and my disciples didn't have a choice, but from now on, I want to be a good person. I don't have hope for the great road, but my disciples and I want to live the rest of our lives innocently."
Zhao Ran looked at the white-haired old man Gu in front of him and was a little distracted for a moment. He looked at the river outside the wall. He was stunned for a moment and chuckled: "Want to be a good person? Okay, go tell Dongji Pavilion and Sanqing Pavilion, See if they let you be a good person"
Gu Kexue nodded and said, "I told them, they said it's up to you."
"Huh?" Zhao Ran was stunned again. He really didn't play according to the routine. The joke didn't work, Zhao Ran couldn't help but ask: "Who said that? Senior Brother Li and Senior Brother Wei?"
Gu Kexue shook his head: "No, they said it was Master Wu Tianshi and Zhenren Zhao."
Zhao Ran didn¡¯t know what to say for a moment. Master Wu Tianshi and Zhenren Zhao actually left this kind of matter to themselves to make decisions? Do you think too highly of yourself?
Seeing that Zhao Ran didn't answer, Gu Kexue took out a hard-shell folded book and showed it to Zhao Ran: "Abbot Zhao, this is the practice certificate you issued to me. When issuing the certificate, Taoist Pei once said that from now on Anyone with a certificate, no matter where they are, has the right to be protected by the Taoist sect, and the Taoist sect will make the decision for the holder of the certificate as long as it is within its power."
Zhao Ran said: "If I knew you were Gu Kexue, I would not issue you a certificate. And the name on the certificate is Gu Kexue."
"From now on, there will be no Gu Kexue and no Gu Kexue. Only Gu Kexue and Abbot Zhao want to live together with the disciples"
Zhao Ran retreated to the rockery and asked Dongfang Li and Wei Chaozong. They both heard clearly and nodded to Zhao Ran, indicating that it was up to Zhao Ran to decide whether to give Gu Kexue a chance.
Zhao Ran sighed, turned around and said: "Cooperate well with the two pavilions in questioning and make up for your previous mistakes. From now on, you will be called Gu Kexue."
After saying that, Zhao Ran turned around and walked down the rockery.
Zhao Ran followed Dongfang Li and Wei Chaozong out of the garden. Gu Kexue remained motionless, staring blankly in the direction he left.
Wu Jia and Ding Si came up, walked behind him, and wanted to take him away. Gu Kexue's knees softened, and he knelt down in the direction where Zhao Ran's figure disappeared, and kowtowed three times.
Zhao Ran walked with Dongfang Li and Wei Chaozong in the newly opened courtyard. Zhao Ran smiled and said: "This industry is very good. Sanqing Pavilion and Dongji Pavilion will definitely thank these two senior brothers in the future."
Wei Chaozong asked: "The location of the bridge should not be here, right? Can this area really become thatlandscape zone as Zhiran said in the future?"
Zhao Ran nodded: "Trees, flowers and grass will be planted along the river. In the future, the road with bluestone floor tiles will wind among the flowers and grass. People can come here to enjoy the river scenery and go for an outing in their free time."
After chatting for a while, Zhao Ran asked: "Two senior brothers, now that Gu Kexue has been brought to justice, he is the most critical witness. With his cooperation, we can definitely find out everything about Xiu'an. But we must be quick. , Shangsangong has already begun to jump over the wall.¡±
So he briefly told the incident about the monks attacking Xuantan Palace today, and both Dongfang Li and Wei Chaozong began to think deeply.
Zhao Ran added: "Gu Kexue is here. Junior brother, I can only solemnly remind the two senior brothers to be careful of going to the third palace to risk their lives. My senior brother Luo is currently at Baoyue Villa, and many spiritual practitioners are also gathered there. If If the two senior brothers need a flying talisman, Baoyue Villa will definitely mobilize manpower to support them."
Dongfang Li said: "Zhiran, don't worry, we don't have to worry here. Elder Zhuo of my pavilion and Elder Qiu of Dongji Pavilion are coming from Lushan. As soon as they arrive tonight, we will escort Master and Disciple Gu Kexue, Chunfeng and Guanyun and the other criminals will go to the True Master Hall. The power of the three palaces above cannot touch us. After the decision is made at the True Master Hall, we can formally interrogate the three palaces."
"That's good. The only thing I'm worried about is that Shang Sangong will destroy the evidence in advance."
"Gu Kexue is enough to destroy the things that can't be completely destroyed. Before you came, Gu Kexue has briefly explained some situations. Xiu'an is under his full control. The Shangsan Palace can't be completely destroyed and cannot be destroyed."
Before Zhao Ran left, Wei Chaozong said: "We are also very worried about Zhi Ran's safety. We have just discussed that my third sister, Wu Jia and Ding Si will stay. If Zhao Ran needs anything, just tell them."
Zhao Ran smiled and said, "Thank you, Senior Brother Wei. It would be great if Senior Sister Wei can stay. Isn't she just making trouble all day long to fight with my Third Senior Brother? We might as well let her stay at Baoyue Villa temporarily."
Wei Chaozong laughed: "I support Zhiran's proposal with both hands! Third sister lost last time and has been obsessed with it. She still refuses to accept it. The quarrel gives me a headache. I might as well let her quarrel with Junior Brother Luo."
