Chapter 63 Going to Qingyang County

Qingping Lane, Gu family courtyard.

Gu Mo and Gu Chudong returned home, briefly explained the situation to Qu Xiao and Qu Li, and then packed up and prepared to leave.

It didn't take long before Zhuo Qingfeng arrived.

Zhuo Qingfeng changed out of his official uniform, and came over with a horse and a sword. He said, "I can't use the people from the Six Gates, so I have to accompany you on this journey alone."

Gu Mo smiled slightly and said, "Who doesn't know that one Swift Wind Constable can defeat a hundred men?"

Zhuo Qingfeng smiled heartily and said, "Although I know you are flattering me, it's just pleasant to hear. Hahaha, do you have a few more words?"

Gu Mo smiled and said, "When it comes to compliments, I only say one sentence at a time."

"Then I'll wait for next time."

As he spoke, Gu Mo prepared to get on the carriage.
At this moment, a carriage appeared from the depths of the alley, and a familiar voice was heard: "Gu Mo."

It was Yan Sanniang's voice.

Gu Mo stopped.

After a while, the carriage arrived at the gate of the Gu family's courtyard. Yan Sanniang got off the carriage and bowed to Zhuo Qingfeng who was riding a horse, saying, "Captain Zhuo."

Zhuo Qingfeng had a serious expression on his face. He returned the greeting with a bow and said indifferently, "Boss Yan."

Yan Sanniang didn't say much to Zhuo Qingfeng. Instead, she looked at Gu Mo and Gu Chudong and said, "I'm here to see you off."

"Boss Yan is thoughtful." Gu Mo said.

"I like to hear you call me Miss Yan." Yan Sanniang smiled slightly and said, "Are you going to Fang County?"

Gu Mo nodded. He was not surprised that Yan Sanniang knew about this matter. After all, Yan Sanniang was the most well-informed about news. Changfeng Escort Agency had suffered a big setback this time. With Yan Sanniang's intelligence ability, she must have been one of the first to know the inside story.

Yan Sanniang took out a Buddhist bead from her bosom, stuffed it into Gu Mo's hand, and said, "After you go to Fang County, if you have any inconveniences and need help, you can go to Fang County City to find a man named Chen San. He is a very powerful old pickpocket in Qingyang County. Although he has been hiding in Fang County, he has many disciples. In the whole Qingyang County, the pickpocket gangs with some strength basically recognize him as their ancestor.

This man is my friend and owes me his life. This bead is a token of my love. If you take it to him, he will know you are mine and will do his best to help you. He can't do big things for you, but he's very good at finding people and getting information.

Gu Mo held the Buddhist beads and squeezed them gently. It was just an ordinary Buddhist bead.

"Thank you, Miss Yan." Gu Mo said.

"Oh, you are such a person," Yan Sanniang curled her lips and said, "When you are not helping me, you call me Boss Yan, but when I help you, you call me Miss Yan."

"Didn't you ask me to scream?"

"You are such a boring person, picking on a girl like me!"

Gu Mo: “…”

"Let's go," Yan Sanniang waved her hand and called to Gu Chudong, "Sister Chudong, have a safe trip. If you need anything, please write to me anytime."

"Okay, Sister Yan!"

Yan Sanniang got on the carriage and left.

It wasn't until Yan Sanniang left and the carriage disappeared into the alley that Zhuo Qingfeng slowly approached. After greeting Yan Sanniang, he quietly retreated a long way, apparently avoiding her. "Captain Zhuo, do you have a grudge against Yan Sanniang?" Gu Mo asked.

"No." Zhuo Qingfeng said.

"Then why avoid it?" Gu Mo wondered.

Zhuo Qingfeng thought for a moment and said, "It's not that I avoid her, but I try not to have any contact with her. Well, Gu Mo, I also advise you that when you are working as a ghostwriter under this woman's name, you should be careful about the scope of your interactions. A cooperative relationship is a cooperative relationship, and there must be no other relationship."

Gu Mo smiled and said, "Besides a cooperative relationship, what other relationship could there be?"

"It's a matter of love between a man and a woman," Zhuo Qingfeng said. "She's only a few years older than you. Young men and women, when they spend a lot of time together, it's hard not to develop feelings for each other. However, I advise you to restrain yourself if you have any such signs. This woman has a complicated identity and a powerful background. If you get involved with her, you could get into trouble if you're not careful. I know you're a martial arts expert, but there are countless martial arts masters in this world, but only a handful can truly stir up trouble. Do you understand what I'm saying?"

Gu Mo nodded slightly and said, "We are not from the same world, so it is fate that we met. If you have any unreasonable thoughts beyond fate, it is like a small boat entering the sea, which will eventually be destroyed by the waves silently."

Zhuo Qingfeng said in a deep voice: "That's what I mean."

"Hahaha," Gu Mo laughed and said, "Captain Zhuo, you also said that her identity and mine are not from the same world. Besides, I'm a blind man, so how could I have any other extra thoughts?"

Zhuo Qingfeng shook his head slightly and said, "I'm afraid that if you don't go to the mountain, the mountain will come to you. Gu Mo, you don't need to underestimate yourself. At least, in the eyes of people at my level, you are already very outstanding. That is to say, you are a lone wolf without a big sect behind you. Otherwise, there would be a place for you, Gu Mo, among the young talents in the world. With your martial arts skills and talent, once you slowly travel the world for a while, how many people will fall for you?"

Gu Mo smiled slightly and said, "Captain Zhuo, are you going to teach me some of your experience as a veteran in the martial arts world?"

Zhuo Qingfeng said, "I'm not afraid to tell you that when I was your age, although my martial arts skills weren't as good as yours, I looked just as good as you, and my personality wasn't as reserved as yours. I was very outgoing, riding my horse across the martial arts world, and everyone would say you were a good young man. At that time, there were many girls in the martial arts world who were attracted by my charm. I could be said to be walking among a sea of ​​flowers without getting even a leaf touched!"

Gu Chudong, who was driving ahead, suddenly said, "So it's like walking through a sea of ​​flowers without getting a single leaf on you. Then, Master Zhuo, why haven't you gotten married yet, even at your prime?"

Zhuo Qingfeng said with great confidence: "As long as the Jianghu is not at peace, how can I care about my family?"

"Really?"

"real."

"But I heard that when Lord Zhuo was young, he had a crush on someone, but he couldn't get her and couldn't let her go, so he never married."

"Nonsense, all rumors."

"Is it really a rumor?"

"..."

The three of them left the city in a noisy manner and headed towards Fang County.

Zhuo Qingfeng is a captain of the Six Gates. He carries out various tasks all year round and is very familiar with the routes in various parts of Yunzhou. Therefore, Gu Mo and his friends do not need to hire a guide.

All three of them traveled light.
Because Gu Mo was riding in a horse carriage, the speed had to slow down relatively, but overall it was still quite fast. After eight days of travel, the group finally arrived in Fang County. Afterwards, the three of them went straight to the post station where the crime occurred.

However, the inn has been blocked and sealed.

The three of them flew into the yard and searched it for a long time, but found nothing, so they headed towards Fang County.

 I wish you all a happy New Year and all the best. May the new year be prosperous and everything goes well!
