Fortune Teller

Listening to his fourth uncle's praise, Gu Xiuyun had a naive smile on his face, but he was beating a hundred and eighty drums in his heart!

The two talked for a long time, and he almost explained all the flaws in his body. But depending on what the old man meant, there was something more important to say to him.

"What is the purpose of Fourth Uncle calling me here?" Gu Xiuyun was puzzled, but since the old man didn't speak, he could only wait patiently.

"Xiu Yun, I am very relieved that you have turned back as a prodigal son now, but the debts owed in the past must always be repaid," the fourth uncle said with a smile, "Not long ago, the innocent girl of the Yan family won the Fenglin Club. First of all, she has two nominated disciples, one of whom is you, did you know?"

"Junior has just returned to the city and hasn't heard anyone talk about this yet." Gu Xiuyun felt a thump in his heart and had a bad premonition.

"It's okay not to know. In the final analysis, it's just a misunderstanding." The old man nodded, "It's just because of this that Yan knew about your romantic debts, and I don't know where I heard about the relationship between you and Yan Sushi. , and has a troubled past.”

What is a terrible past?

Gu Xiuyun's face turned dark when he heard this, and the uneasiness in his heart became more intense. He always felt that his fourth uncle had dug a big hole and was waiting for him to get into it.

"Fourth uncle, in fact, Miss Yan Sushi and I are innocent, nothing happened!" Gu Xiuyun said bravely.

How could he know what stupid things his predecessor had done?

But when it comes to things, you definitely can’t admit it.

"Nothing really happened?" The old man smiled at the corner of his eyes, "But I heard that you were alone in the same room, and Yan Sushi's underwear was torn. Could it be that the weather was too hot and she tore it herself? ?”

"This beast!"

Gu Xiuyun secretly scolded his predecessor for going around plundering women, but he didn't even let the Yan family's legitimate daughter go.

"Fourth uncle, although there is a misunderstanding about this matter, it will ultimately damage the honor of the girl's family. I am willing to try my best to compensate."

"You've stripped me of my body, and it's spread all over the city. How can I compensate you? Tell me," the old man took out a pot of tea from somewhere and started to drink it. "Ms. Yan has already spoken, this matter If you don't give them a satisfactory answer, you will have to ask the ancestors to come forward. By then, not to mention you, even I will be in trouble. "

"My fourth uncle has said so. He must have made a decision, and I just have to follow it." Gu Xiuyun looked helpless.

"Okay, now that you have spoken, you can't go back on your word," the old man laughed, "I have already discussed with Mrs. Yan to choose a good and auspicious day for you to get married."

"What?" Gu Xiuyun jumped up from the futon, "Fourth uncle, are you kidding me? I'm marrying Yan Sushi?"

"You have ruined my reputation. Who else can I marry if I don't marry you?" the old man snorted coldly.

Gu Xiuyun's face looked uncertain.

How could he marry a woman he had never met before? What's more, that person hated him very much.

"Fourth uncle, what if I don't want to?"

"You have now turned on the pulse switch. Even if you don't want to, the family will not force you. But you have damaged the reputation of Yan Su Shi and the reputation of the Yan family. You have to bear the responsibility yourself." Four The uncle's eyes were slightly cold, "According to the clan rules, you have to think about your mistakes on the altar, and you are not allowed to leave even half a step for three years."

That's it?

Gu Xiuyun blinked.

What a big deal it is to sit in front of a wall and think about it for three years!

"Fourth uncle, I'd better go face the wall and think about it!" Gu Xiuyun said without hesitation.

"In that case, bring that plate of things to Yan Su Shi. You must solve the evil you have done yourself." The old man pointed to the jade plate on one side indifferently, "Three feet of white silk, red crane crown, let Yan Su Same as the poetry selection.”

"You want her to die?" Gu Xiuyun's face was full of shock. "What's wrong with her? I'm the one who was wrong."

"The mistake is that she is the direct daughter of the Yan family," the old man said with an indifferent expression, "Since she has become the direct daughter and has enjoyed the glory and glory of the direct lineage, she must bear the corresponding responsibilities. As the direct daughter of the Yan family, she has lost her reputation. , It’s Yan’s shame. As long as she lives in this world, Yan’s face will be disgraced.”

"Gu Xiuyun, you have only two options, either marry her or send her to death."

Gu Xiuyun raised his head and looked at his fourth uncle.

At this moment, he realized what an indifferent soul lay behind the appearance of a wealthy family.

Is it wrong to let innocent people die for the sake of the family's face? Is it wrong to say Su Shi? Maybe.

The mistake was that she was the Yan family's direct daughter, but her reputation was ruined by Gu Xiuyun.

However, Gu Xiuyun's cultivation level is too high and he has turned on the pulse switch. Gu will never let a genius die, so he can only sacrifice Yan Su Shi.

"Yan Sushi has lost her reputation. If I can't marry you, I have no choice but to die. After she dies, Yan will build a chastity memorial arch for her. This matter is over," the old man said softly, "It's weird It's just that, as a legitimate daughter, she doesn't have the ability to express emotions and can enlighten her spiritual veins. Compared with Yan's face, she is nothing but a mere mortal."

The fourth uncle's words were like a sharp knife piercing Gu Xiuyun's heart.

If a stranger died, Gu Xiuyun wouldn't care, but Yan Sushi died because of herself. What was wrong with her?

Even if there was a mistake, it was Gu Xiuyun's predecessor who was wrong.

"I thought that after becoming a practitioner, I would be able to control my own life, but it turns out that I still can't help myself after all." Gu Xiuyun felt a little bitter in his heart. At this moment, he felt the taste of his previous life again.

"Gu Xiuyun, let alone you, even I can't help myself sometimes," the old man smiled sadly, "If you don't want to become someone else's abandoned child, you must continue to strengthen yourself."

"Thank you, Fourth Uncle, for the tip." Gu Xiuyun took a deep breath, turned around and walked outside the quiet room.

"Don't you want the jade plate?"

"Hedinghong is too bitter, so Heding wine is better."

Gu Xiuyun walked away.

…

Half a day later, explosive news spread across the entire Youning City like snowflakes.

"Have you heard? Gu Xiuyun has turned on the pulse switch. It is said that he has condensed the purple spirit veins. The so-called two-color veins are simply fake news released by the Gu family."

"What are you talking about? I also heard that Gu Xiuyun is favored by the elders of the Yan clan and wants to marry his legitimate daughter Yan Sushi."

"Who is Yan Su Shi?"

"I don't even know this. She is the legitimate daughter of the Yan family. Although she is delicate and frail and cannot practice cultivation, her status is there. If she marries Yan Sushi, Gu Xiuyun will have the support of two big families behind her. In the future, the entire eight cities of Chu County , he has a place.”

There are different opinions in the city, and many of them are news deliberately released by the Gu family.

A few days later, the entire North City was draped in red and green, decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, and even the side rooms and courtyards of the main line were covered with wedding couplets.

"What a big battle." Gu Xiuyun walked through the corridor and walked towards the Alchemy Sutra Pagoda. "Fourth uncle did this to give Yan family a lot of face. I think on the wedding day, Youning City will be even more lively."

"It's just a pity that Miss Yan, this life is completely ruined!"

Gu Xiuyun sighed.

He understood that Yan Sushi and himself were both victims of this marriage, and the purpose was just for Yan's face. As for Gu Xiuyun, as a cultivator in the realm of opening pulses, he will live a long life in the future. Even if he marries a third or fourth wife, no one would dare to say anything nonsense.

Yan Su Shi can only live alone in the depths of the courtyard.
