Light Barrier

Chapter 282

The "dinner party" to catch the wind and wash away the dust is in Qianlongguan Manor.

Said it was "dinner party". In fact, it was Fatty Luo who cooked alone and made some simple home-cooked dishes. There was nothing grand about it. As he said... this was his personal "feast to wash away the dust."

There are no outsiders.

After the banquet.

"Fat man... there's something, take a look."

Gu Nanfeng took out a small part from his arms and slowly twisted it between two fingers to show it.

This is a very tiny part. Just looking at the outline, someone who is not someone who has been devoted to mechanical research for many years... can't tell where it is used.

"Earthworm parts."

Fatty Luo recognized it at a glance and immediately frowned, "Young Master... have you met Earthworm?"

"I encountered this on the way here. This earthworm tried to attack me and was crushed by me." Gu Nanfeng said calmly: "Although we set out in secret, we still didn't hide it from them. There were people on the way back. 'Wind Eye', with 'Earthworm' underneath... It seems that many people in Nagano are paying attention to my movements."

"No...no..."

Luo Yu fell into deep thought after hearing this. After a moment, he shook his head, "If it was done by those guys from the New School...how could they use a detector like 'Earthworm' to attack you? They should be hoping that the Earthworm will hide more and more. deep."

Things like earthworms can penetrate hundreds of meters underground.

Exploring the ground is something Lan Qi is not good at.

Gu Nanfeng narrowed his eyes: "What do you mean?"

Fatty Luo said seriously: "Young Master, in my opinion, this is not like an attack... more like a reminder. Maybe I want to remind you that someone in Nagano City has been paying attention to you, and more than you think." Earlier, earlier.”

It makes no sense to use earthworms to emerge.

"No one can stop you from coming back." Fatty Luo said slowly: "So... before the official move is made, the new faction will not show their cards, not even one."

Gu Nanfeng thought for a moment and said, "Fat man, I came back this time... for the sake of the bill."

In front of Gu Shen and Lu Nanjin, Gu Nanfeng did not hide anything and went straight to the point.

"You also know about the apostles. Dato has officially opposed the bill... I think Nagano also needs to express his position. Nagano needs to talk to Dato about the bill."

Fatty Luo was startled.

He picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and said, "Eat first...eat first..."

"Did I say it too directly?"

Gu Nanfeng looked directly into Luo Yu's eyes and said: "But the matter of the bill is a matter of burning concern and cannot be delayed for a moment. The old man did not see me immediately when he came back from this trip, but sent you here like this Out...what does this mean?"

"It's not that the old man doesn't want to come, it's just that something is really going on and he can't get away..."

Fatty Luo smiled helplessly and said: "And young master, you also know that after leaving Nagano for eight years, you will have to take charge of the bill when you come back... Although you are the future head of the family appointed by the guardian of the tomb, there is no such reason..."

Gu Nanfeng continued to stare into Luo Yu's evasive eyes and said in a deep voice, "Didn't you just say that...the old man has been looking forward to my return?"

"Yes...but..."

Fatty Luo let out a long sigh, "The old man hopes that you will come back in peace, and not to cause trouble. Eight years ago, we had a fierce fight, but now everyone takes a step back, and we can be considered peaceful. Peace... is not easy."

At this point...it is very clear.

Gu Nanfeng understood.

Gu Shen and Lu Nanjin looked at each other and understood.

Relying on the influence of 【Qingzhong】 and Gu Changzhi's legacy, the old faction still has huge power, but they seem to have fallen into decline now and do not want to compete for more.

Gu Nanfeng is indeed the future head of the Gu family in name only.

But this name, compared to real power, is more like a "crown of nothingness" perched on a castle in the air.

The people of the old school gathered around this crown, which was equivalent to guarding the morality they believed in... The guardians in the Qing Tomb were Gu Changzhi's messenger, and they naturally had to follow his decreed will, so when the struggle was at its most intense, they He sent Gu Nanfeng to Beizhou without hesitation just to protect his own morality.

But now...the struggle is over.

It’s not just the new faction that doesn’t want to see Gu Changzhi return to Nagano.

Those who once held the crown did not want to see the return of this "future head of the family".

This is a very chilling... fact.

"No wonder."

Gu Nanfeng's face showed no reaction and remained calm, "No wonder, it's only you."

Earthworm, wind pupil.

Nagano didn't know how many people were staring at him...but when he came back, the only one who came to greet him was Fatty Luo.

"The new faction discovered that Gu Changzhi's survival does not seem to be a bad thing."

"Oizhou does not dare to act rashly. The existence of this deterrent force makes Nagano's position stable... so their existence also becomes stable. As long as Gu Changzhi does not walk out of Qingzhong, they will not be attacked. This situation is not impossible. accept."

"And the even more ironic thing is... for the old school, the ideas that originally supported Gu Changzhi have changed little by little in the past eight years."

“Only when people are desperate will they long for God’s salvation.”

"Presumably over the years, many people in the old school have discovered that the god in the Qing Tomb does not need to come out alive for them to live a good life... On the contrary, if the god comes out, they may not so good."

"At that time...will they still hope that God will show up?"

Chu Ling gave his own answer to this question: "I think... no."

Gu Shen had a headache and rubbed his eyebrows.

Come to Nagano this time.

Promoting the bill and the negotiations between Dadu and Nagano... are not just the tasks of Gu Nanfeng alone. The future head of the Gu family has a heavy burden on his shoulders, and for now, he is fighting alone.

There are many people in Nagano who are willing to call him Young Master.

But there are not many people who truly regard him as their young master.

Fatty Luo's invitation today should be the intention of the old-school old man. After welcoming the wind and washing away the dust, he also reminded Gu Nanfeng of his return attitude... Tomorrow's "family banquet" is probably the highlight.

"Gu Nanfeng, actually you don't have to worry too much."

Chu Ling smiled and said, "I found some interesting information, you can take a look."

In the middle of the carriage, pop-up windows appeared one after another.

Documents are packed and flitted through this mental space.

"Because he went to Guangming City...I just started investigating...starting from the changed identity code..."

Gu Shen looked solemn as he slowly read through the pages.

The young master of the Gu family was sent out of Dongzhou to the fortress eight years ago. In order to prevent him from being traced, the tombkeeper used the highest authority of the throne to rewrite all his identity codes.

"Starting from the Piyue City Fortress, he first joined the Fourth Army. He started as a scout and started to be promoted step by step. This file is not encrypted because there are no secrets here. It belongs to a little person. History of Struggle... It is worth mentioning that the domed cloak on Gu Nanfeng's body was a gift from the famous Beizhou general 'Rusty Bones', the Kirigakure Cloak."

The file uses clean and concise words to record the record of a little-known person with an identity code of CN021, who spent eight years step by step to reach a high position in the Fourth Army...

Eight years is a long time.

Eight years is also very short.

For a person who has left his hometown, eight years is too long, and the more than two thousand days and nights spent wandering abroad are all about loneliness and wandering.

For a striver, eight years is too short, and one step at a time cannot go very far.

But for Gu Nanfeng, eight years...he finally became the adjutant of "Rusty Bones".

The records of file CN021 also end here.

Perhaps because his identity as Young Master Nagano... was known to General Rusty Bones, this file stopped being recorded and updated.

At the end of the file, there is a special note from General Rusty Bones: Due to the outstanding contribution of CN021, Beizhou decided not to enter its file into the deep sea and sealed it.

No one knows who CN021 is.

In addition to the source code Chu Ling.

"In addition, there is another thing that is quite profound and worth exploring..."

Chu Ling said meaningfully: "Beizhou General Xiugu also studied in Guangming City. He has a close connection with the Guangming Throne. Perhaps this is the reason why Gu Nanfeng can lend the token from Guangming City? There is no other file in CN021 I can't find out more information. But I think that the name of the future head of the Gu family alone is not enough to borrow a sacred object like the apostle's token."

"You mean, Gu Nanfeng has additional connections with Xizhou?" Gu Shen narrowed his eyes, "Then he has a backing when he returns to Nagano."

"High probability." Chu Lin paused and said, "But it's only a probability."

"No matter what... I don't have to worry about him anymore."

"If Gu Nanfeng chooses to stay in Beizhou and become a famous general of the new generation, it is only a matter of time." Gu Shen read the file and breathed a sigh of relief, saying: "But he chose to return to Nagano... Presumably before returning home, here He has long understood the dilemma."

Gu Shen's mood gradually calmed down.

In fact, he also knew it.

When it comes to bill negotiations, what he can do...is to push forward when he is needed.

Until the situation becomes clearer, it's better to wait and see.

"Compared to Gu Nanfeng, what I need to worry about more... is myself." Gu Shen smiled, "After arriving in Nagano, I had a vague feeling that something was not good, especially what Fatty Luo said to me. talk."

He often listened to people from the three houses and heard Gu Shen's name.

"Zhou Jiren has many enemies in the tribunal." Chu Ling said softly, "You have to be careful."
