The hard way to raise an apprentice

Chapter 4 Coming of Age Day

Back in Tiancheng, Jiuzhong's first thing is to check his young master up and down. Look at his thin arms and legs, he hasn't grown any flesh. It took five years for him to grow so tall. He wants to sue Xiaoyaomen for mistreating his disciples.

'Shouldn't your first thing be to check my repairs. Gu Yi looked indifferently at Jiuzhong who scolded Xiaoyaomen.

"Young master, the city lord has prepared a dinner." Jiuzhong said respectfully after finishing the inspection.

"En." Gu Yi nodded, "Change clothes."

The maid brought Gu Yi to the bathing pool. She hadn't seen such a big bathing pool for many years and Gu Yi was so moved that she was about to cry. There was only one big bathing pool in the whole room, surrounded by light red curtains, and the heat in the pool slowly rose. Gu Yi walked down the steps slowly, his whole body soaked in the water, almost shed tears of emotion.But he still tried his best to maintain a serious face, the character design cannot be destroyed! !

The servant girl brought a fancy dress specially made for him. The moonlight robe was secretly embroidered with silver patterns, and the boy in the formal suit looked even more aloof.

Jiuzhong followed behind him, and the two went to the side hall together.On both sides of the hall door, two maidservants were wearing goose-yellow long skirts, bowing their knees to Gu Yi respectfully holding long burning lights.Walking into the hall, there was a round table in the center, which was filled with rare delicacies that Gu Yijian had never seen before, but there were maidservants who kept coming and going to deliver food to the table.Today, the palace of Tiancheng is as magnificent as Xiaoyaomen.

On one side of the hall, there was a man sitting on a chair, looking down at the book in his hand. The man's profile was as heroic as a knife, and just sitting there revealed a domineering arrogance without anger.

'This is the lord of the city? Gu Yi hesitated for a moment, after all, it was hundreds of years ago that he saw his father in his last life.

"Why?" The man suddenly smiled, "You don't even know your father?"

"Father." Gu Yi lowered his head slightly.

Yes, this person is Gu Yi's father, the lord of Tiancheng City, who is only two hundred years old in the late stage of Dongxu.

"Come here." The man beckoned, and Gu Yi walked over. The man put his big hand on Gu Yi's head and rubbed it lightly, "It's time for the consecration? I have wronged you these few years, and today I will take care of you for my father."

This meal brought Gu Yi to tears, it was so delicious, compared to what the hell he ate at Xiaoyaomen, it ruined his taste buds!As expected of the most affluent Tiancheng in Xilai Prefecture, the money spent on this meal is estimated to be enough for an ordinary family to eat for a lifetime.

After the meal, Gu Chengfeng personally removed the illusion of the Three Spirit Roots for him, and then... threw him to the academy. Gu Yi looked at the mountain of files and fell silent.It is indeed written in the book that Gu Yi's kindergarten teacher was thrown into the academy by his father to study on his own, and Gu Yi is talented and intelligent and self-taught... a brain! !Did people do this! !There are at least tens of thousands of files here! ! !

"I'll come to see you in half a month. You choose what to learn, and I'll teach you." Gu Chengfeng left after speaking, leaving Gu Yi standing there coldly (confused) and quietly (forced). He was not worried that he would choose What, he knew that Gu Yi inherited his father and practiced Ruthless Dao since he was a child, but what he has to face now is to find that book from the tens of thousands of files. He searched for a whole month in his previous life. Only half a month left! ?

Gu Yi approached the towering bookshelf with some despair, don't be cowardly, just do it! !

Gu Chengfeng didn't expect that Gu Yi would find this book, it was obviously hidden to the point where he couldn't find it himself, maybe it was fate.Gu Chengfeng sighed, and looked down at his young son.

"Gu Yi, if you learn it, you will lose something."

"what?"

"A... throbbing of emotions, a very precious thing." Gu Chengfeng said.

"I want to learn." Gu Yi stared at Gu Chengfeng seriously without blinking, "Anyway, this thing is useless to me. 'That's right, the ruthless way of forgetting love is useless to Gu Yi, this is his broken golden finger.

"Okay." Gu Chengfeng nodded.

In the next few years, Gu Yi was very serious about self-study, yes, he was still self-taught, Gu Chengfeng only came to give pointers occasionally, but after all, he could easily learn what he had learned in the previous life.So, don't pretend to be an iceberg while he's still young, please let him slip out and have fun! !So, on the coming-of-age day, Gu Yi asked me to go out and have fun for a day, Gu Chengfeng waved his hand and let Jiuzhong follow.

Gu Yi never came out to play in his previous life, so there is no follow-up story, but after all this time...he ran out

When the lights came on, stalls were set up in the night market, and small snowflakes were falling one after another. Gu Yi wore a half-face mask on the side of his head, and walked in the crowd with a serious face. Jiuzhong was a little helpless, and he wanted to take the young master to see a doctor , If it is facial paralysis, it needs to be cured.

Suddenly, the sky full of Kongming lanterns came into view, Gu Yi raised his head to look fascinated, and under the light of the lights, the young man in a brocade robe for today's coming-of-age ceremony also looked even more moving.

"Isn't this the young master of Tiancheng?"

Suddenly a warm breath came from his ear, Gu Yi was startled, and instantly grasped the hilt of the sword at his waist. The lively environment around him made him relax his vigilance for a while, and he didn't even notice that someone was so close to him.

"Young Master!" Jiuzhong immediately rushed towards the person beside Gu Yi, who was wearing a red robe and a fox mask, glanced at Jiuzhong who rushed up, and frowned displeasedly.

"Back off." The two words spit out from the opponent's mouth, accompanied by a huge coercion, which made Jiuzhong stunned for a moment. In such a moment, the man had already pulled Gu Yi and disappeared, and Jiuzhong stood still. , Covering his face with one hand, the city lord will kill him.

In the forest a hundred miles away from the city gate, Gu Yi held a sword and looked at the person in front of him vigilantly. This person had a very high level of cultivation, at least the current Gu Yi couldn't beat him.

"Fried hair?" The other party chuckled, rubbed his chin and looked Gu Yi up and down, "Not bad, it's time for consecration."

Gu Yi looked at this man, but his mind was full of searching for information. Who could this person be?Such a monster was written in his book?

"Who are you?" Gu Yi asked, trying to find some useful information.

"You can call me... Liu Feng."

Come on, I got it, this person is the demon emperor Lingfeng, alias Liufeng, that's right!The red snake incarnation, which is rare for the monster clan, has reached the transformation stage at the age of two hundred. As a monster clan, he has a good temper. Although he can't see the face under the mask of the other party, Gu Yi vaguely remembers that face , that's right, a coquettish bitch!

Gu Yi, who knew the other party's identity, became inexplicably calm, and looked at the other party confidently, while Ling Feng was taken aback. What happened to make the little guy in front of him suddenly put down his sword so boldly?

"Oh, what's the matter?" Gu Yi asked, 'No, no, it doesn't seem right for him to be so calm. '

Then, Ling Feng found that the little guy was looking at him vigilantly again, and couldn't help feeling amused.

"It's nothing, just curious about the son of the city lord. Let's take a look. It's time for consecration. It seems that the pill is about to condense, not bad."

'Bring it?Do you think Lao Tzu is an object? Take it if you want! Gu Yi squinted his eyes, thinking how to mess with the other party, what is the weakness of the Demon Emperor?

"Don't be angry," Ling Feng shrugged, as if the one he dragged out was not the noble young master, but just an ordinary person, "How about I pay you something?"

"What." Gu Yi looked at the other party indifferently.

"Oh, I didn't take anything now, so next time!" Ling Feng suddenly reached out and flicked Gu Yi's forehead, and disappeared without waiting for Gu Yi's sword to pierce.

"Young master!" Jiuzhong jumped down from the tree, but Gu Yi rarely showed anger, "Where's that person!?"

"Let's go." Gritting his teeth, Gu Yi withdrew his sword, took a few deep breaths to adjust his state, and said, "How did you find it?"

"I..." Jiuzhong scratched his head, a little embarrassed, "I summoned Qiuqiu."

Gu Yi turned his head, and sure enough, he saw the Qilin Beast standing on the side. It seemed that its ears were a little itchy and was rubbing against the tree. It didn't have the dignity of a divine beast. Although the Qilin Beast has a keen sense of smell, it treats the Qilin Beast as a dog...

"Go back, don't mention today's matter again." Gu Yi said.

"But the city lord." Jiu Zhong hesitated, but seeing Gu Yi looking straight at him, he had no choice but to nod.

Back in the main city, Gu Yizhen really started the life of an otaku. He was just spending time in the academy and the martial arts field. Go out to get some air, or find a girl to flirt with, but what responded to him was Gu Yi's emotionless eyes, as if he was listening to a joke.

"Although it is the way of ruthlessness, you have to enter the world first before you can emerge from the world. If you don't know what emotion is, it is not easy to practice." Gu Chengfeng said.

"Did the father enter the world?" Gu Yi asked.

"Nonsense, otherwise where would you come from!" Gu Chengfeng sneered.

"Then how was the father born?" The secret about Gu Yi's mother seemed to be revealed, Gu Yi asked curiously.

"..." The high-spirited city lord suddenly fell silent, and there seemed to be countless sorrows condensed between the heroic brows, "I am ashamed of your mother, so I gave up the ruthless way."

'Uh...that's it? 'Gu Yi blinked.

"So I worry about whether you will regret it too."

"No, I will never regret my choice." The boy said word by word.

Gu Chengfeng turned his head to look at Gu Yi. This delicate face seemed to overlap with the face of the girl who was with him a long time ago. They had the same resolute expression and said the same words that they would not regret.

"As expected of my son." Gu Chengfeng smiled, "You have grown up."

"En." Gu Yi nodded, and by the way complained in his heart, "Anyway, I am not affected by the ruthless way. '

"For my father, I can rest assured that Tiancheng will be handed over to you."

'No matter how broken a gold finger is, it's still gold...what do you say! ? Gu Yi stared at Gu Chengfeng with wide eyes, "Brother, you said that almost 20 years too early, can you make it up!" ! ! ! ! '

So on the second day of Gu Yi's birthday, the owner of the city, Gu Chengfeng, practiced in seclusion, and left everything in the city to Gu Yi.The city lord is still alive, and the son of the city lord is in charge of Tiancheng, so he is called the lord. Gu Yi looked at the jade tablet of the city lord held up by Jiu Zhong with both hands, and picked it up calmly. Gu Yi, who has truly become the lord of Tiancheng, stood on the tower in a robe, Worshiped by thousands of people in the city.

After the ceremony was over, he returned to the room and took off his outer robe... and threw it on the ground viciously.

Although the royal robe woven by silkworm silk seems to have no special features, it made people feel distressed and cried when they saw the robe being thrown on the ground.Silkworm silk, one silk thread can be worth ten thousand taels of gold, only Tiancheng is so rich.

'It's too late, I'm exhausted! ! ! ! ! Gu Yi was expressionless, but roared in his heart, the process of accepting the job was too complicated.Jian Zong Gu Yi is indeed a cold-hearted person, concentrating on the sword, indifferent to personnel, but that is also the beginning of the plot, almost a hundred years later, Gu Chengfeng's retreat has brought the incident forward by a full 20 years!So why not wear it later, it will take another hundred years.

Life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills.

'Ding—system detection, the host has achieved the primary achievement 'Lord of Heavenly City''

'What the hell! ? 'Gu Yi raised his head suddenly.

'Ding - the host has successfully turned on the mission system, the system is being installed...'

'Hello host! 'An emotionless mechanical voice suddenly spread in the brain, trying to regain the sense of existence. 'Host? ... host host host host. '

'Shut up. ' Gu Yi said coldly.

'It's fierce, but it fits the character design. 'The system dislikes it.

'explain. 'Gu Yi picked up the robe from the ground.

'Host, you have successfully traversed "The Road to Apprentice Cultivation as a Master" and become the master of Tiancheng, Gu Yi. You need to successfully light up various icons in the next few days. '

'etc! !The title of the book is not this! ! '

'The book written by the host takes the protagonist as the first perspective, and now you are the host, the system must change the name accordingly.

'

'Why didn't you show up in the last life! ? 'Gu Yi couldn't believe it.

'In the previous life, the host did not pretend to be coercive, nor did he succeed in coercion. The nature of this system is a dual-coercion system. The installation environment is wrong and he refuses to install it. ' said the system lazily.

'...what is the quest icon. ' Gu Yi felt a little tired holding the corner of the table.

Many translucent icons suddenly appeared in mid-air, only one was bright - 'The Lord of the Heavenly City'.

'These...' Gu Yi pointed at a few icons blankly, this is a ghost! ! ! !

What is a 'pretentious lord'!What is "lonely master"!What's the "master who protects the calf"... Damn what is the "temptation of the master"! ! ! !

The spiritual energy leaked out, and a heavy pressure was rolled up in the room. There was only a crackling sound, and all the utensils in the room were broken.

'Host calm down! ! '

"My lord! What's the matter!!" Jiuzhong's voice outside the door was a little anxious.

"Nothing!!" Gu Yi said, and asked the system again, 'Why did I do these things. '

'There can be rewards for completing the icon, and only in this way can a happy ending be reached...' the system explained, 'then the host doesn't have to wear it back all the time. '

'Oh. '

'Host, why do I think you don't like my appearance? Shouldn't ordinary people be thankful when the system appears? ' The system asked curiously.

'As soon as you appeared, I felt that the time travel text would not be able to survive without the system. 'Gu Yi sighed.

"My lord, the city lord ordered, please come to the hall, before the retreat, he still wants to see you." Jiuzhong's voice came again.

"En." Gu Yi put the robe on his shoulders and pushed open the door.

Jiu Zhong was a little stunned, Gu Yi has really grown up, after all, he is the child of the city lord, and his appearance is really good...

Gu Yi was standing on the steps in a robe. The sleeves of the pitch-black robe were covered with golden patterns that seemed to be flowing, which was exquisitely crafted. The token hanging around his waist showed his unrivaled status in Tiancheng.His black hair was neatly bundled up by the maid, and one or two strands fell on his shoulders. He looked indifferent, and his thin lips were lightly pursed. His black eyes, which were already very indifferent, became more stern and ice-cold when they were silent. The once simple eyes had become mature. There are also some immature features that are very similar to the city lord when he was young, but no matter how you look at it, he is a bit delicate like the city lord's wife.

"Jiuzhong." Gu Yi said, why is this girl distracted?

"Ah, yes, my lord please..."

In the hall, only the city lord stood with his back.

"Father……"

"I will work hard for you in the future, Gu Yi."

"Father is..."

Gu Chengfeng turned around and frowned at Gu Yi, "You have grown up, and you are also old as a father."

Dad, you are kidding me, you are less than 400 years old and say you are old in the late stage of Dongxu, so those old men in Xiaoyaomen who only came out of their bodies in their [-]s should be buried in the earth!Gu Yi thought to herself, but still looked at her father expressionlessly.

"I used five years to quell the civil strife, and another three years to restore the prosperity of Tiancheng. I am also tired. From now on, this Tiancheng will be handed over to you. I need to rest for my father..."

To put it bluntly, you are annoying, so hurry up and throw this troublesome matter to your son...

"Yes……"

"Then you can rest assured to retreat as a father."

"Congratulations to my father."

"Tiancheng is busy with the city affairs. If the capital turnover cannot be opened, ask Jiuzhong to take you to the city treasury, so that the things in the treasury don't get moldy..."

This means that I have saved money for you, so hurry up and spend it!Don't say that I abused my son!The Tiancheng city treasury has always been a treasure house that is said by the world. It is said that it is full of rare treasures, but if there is something specific, Gu Yi laughed dryly, and had to give everything to the hero.

"Also, I received a package today, saying it is a gift for your congratulations, go to the hall to get it yourself." After Gu Chengfeng finished speaking, he left without looking back.

"Gift?" Gu Yi was a little strange, turned around and walked towards the main hall, only to see a city lord's couch carved from a golden spirit stone on top of the stone steps. Carving such a large spirit stone into a seat is really extravagant and wasteful, Gu Yi He walked up slowly, but saw a long box on the couch, and when he opened it, it turned out to be a sword with a piece of letter paper on it.

'Redeem your gift. '

Gu Yi was taken aback. This sword is indeed Gu Yi's personal sword in the book. In his last life, Gu Yi got it when he happened to enter the demon clan's forbidden area. up.

'System, how do those icons light up. '

'For example, if the icon is 'Pretentious Lord', the host must try to pretend. 'The system responds.

Very good, isn't it just pretending?Who doesn't know how to act aggressive, he didn't go back to Xiaoyaomen until ten years later, and the main drama didn't start until 100 years later, these days, it's enough for him to act aggressive!Gu Yi looked at the Liuyuan sword in his hand, and raised the corners of his mouth.
