The Ancestor of our Sect Isn’t Acting like an Elder

Chang’an.

Hua Chao Imperial Capital.

It is the largest city in the Hua Dynasty in terms of scale. Even famous big cities such as Jinling, Kaifeng and Luoyang are less than half of Chang’an in scale.

However, Chang’an was the first city to fall asleep.

At the feet of the emperor, there is only silence.

Chang’an, as the Imperial Capital, is the place where the Imperial Palace is located. It has extremely high requirements for public security, so the city’s curfew is also extremely strict.

The curfew in the outer city may be more relaxed. After all, many night markets such as brothel are opened here, but the curfew in the inner city can only be described as “strict”. The government has meticulously enforced the curfew in the inner city–especially after the assassination incident that happened five years ago. Not long after nightfall, the city gate that separates the inner and outer cities will be locked, and the government will patrol the inner city, and will always intercept and interrogate people who come back at night. In view of this, those who live in the inner city will not go out after nightfall if they have nothing to do, so as not to get into trouble.

After the curfew, the inner city is always silent and can be heard.

However, today is a bit different.

In the east of the city, there are some mansions of high-ranking officials. Most of the people who live here are Imperial Family and Imperial Court officials. Logically speaking, the curfew in the east of the city should be extremely strict.

However, there was a rapid sound of horseshoes on one of the streets in the east of the city, breaking the silence here.

A fast horse running from the Imperial Palace is moving towards the Western District somewhere.

Riding on the horse is an Elderly wearing a uniform.

He has a white hair and youthful face, and his outline is heroic and powerful. The pale scar on his right cheek adds a bit of majesty to him. The eyes, which always exudes sharp gazes, are slightly gray at first glance, but it is not difficult to see that they are dotted with countless stars.

Elderly is entwined with the mighty power, breaking the wind. The long spear hung beside the horse was wrapped in heavy cold air, and the flashing light of the gun tip traced a stream of light in the air.

Several patrolmen who occasionally passed by noticed the oncoming Elderly, but they did not attempt to intercept them. Instead, they stepped aside and let Elderly ride through.

Well, there are very few people in the world who can intercept Elderly.

At least, these patrols dare not and have no ability to hinder Elderly’s progress. They only dared to watch Elderly ride away.

In the end, Elderly reined his horse and stopped in front of a magnificent mansion in an imposing manner. On the high-hanging plaque on the gate of the mansion, the two characters flamboyant were written-Palace.

When the horse’s hoof fell and there was a crisp sound, the thick gate of the Gong Family mansion was opened from the inside. Two middle-aged servants ran out of the house.

When they came to Elderly, they bowed respectfully at the same time and shouted in unison:

“Too sir!”

“en.”

p>

Gong Family Grand Master is going to the Great General North of Zhenbei ── Gong Jing glanced at the two quickly and complied briefly.

One of the servants took the reins and whip from Gong Jing, and the other circumvented the horses and unloaded Gong Jing’s love gun.

“Old rules, good feed should be used for fogging. In addition, the horseshoe is a bit worn out. Let the craftsman come and see it tomorrow. You have to tell him to do his best to fix it, and fogging is on the battlefield. I have saved my life many times, and there is no room for any difference.”

Gong Jing caressed the god Jun Lieqi who had lived and died with him for many years, and sternly commanded the servant. The mist is snorted, and his slightly squinted eyes make it feel like it enjoys the owner’s touch.

“Little understands.”

The expression of the servant holding the reins sternly agreed.

“Well, go. Tengwu should also be tired.”

“The little one will leave first.”

“Go.”

Gong Jing waved his hand. After the servant nodded returned the gift, he immediately led Tengwu to the corridor of the mansion.

“Let’s go too.”

After that, Gong Jing stride proudly ahead into the home he has not returned for a long time.

The corners of his mouth curled up unconsciously, showing a gentle smile. For Elderly, who has been away for many years, there is nothing more comfortable and warm than his own home.

“How is everything at home?”

His son is a stubborn person. He will hide everything and will not tell himself, so the palace knows this. Jing asked specifically.

“Everything is good.”

Following Gong Jing step by step, the servant who hugged the long spear to his chest answered quickly. He was sweating, and Gong Jing’s long spear was too heavy for him—whether it was the weight or everything on the long spear.

After learning that there was nothing wrong at home and everything was well, Gong Jing felt relieved.

He is a person who is not good at expressing emotions, so not at all express the happiness in his heart at this moment on his face. However, in his eyes, he could still catch the corresponding traces.

“Young Lady often comes back with family letters.”

“Yes, Qinger should have a good time at Heavenly Jade Palace… After all, this family can only give her Sad…”

Gong Jing stopped and sighed deeply.

He was straightforward and upright all his life, and he considered himself worthy of the world, but Gong Tianqing was the only person he was ashamed of. As Gong Tianqing’s biological grandfather, he cannot protect her and give her happiness.

I know it is not my granddaughter’s fault, but I can’t relieve my daughter-in-law’s death and grandson’s health deficiency, and give it to her when she needs love most.

Qing’er, I just hope you are well and happy in Heavenly Jade Palace…Elderly seems to be much older at this moment, and the light in her eyes fades slightly.

He looked into the night sky and prayed that his granddaughter who lived in the same sky but was far away would be happy.

This is the only thing he can do for Gong Tianqing.

Apart from this, he can’t do anything.

Although he is the Great General of Zhenbei in the Hua Dynasty, the official residence of two grades, and he is also a martial artist of the heavens, he is just a mortal, not a panacea. He simply couldn’t control the disgust that entangled in his heart whenever he saw Gong Tianqing.

It’s obviously not her fault… Gong Jing sighed again.

When the blessing only cares for one person, the blessing is a curse for the other.

When Gong Tianqing was born, the mother died of dystocia, and the younger brother did not get the health he deserved. He was sick and weak since childhood.

Gong Tianqing didn’t get anything extra. She deserved everything. However, people blamed her for their loss, thinking that it was her fault, that she took them away. Possessions.

──This must be wrong.

Elderly’s thoughts are flying, and there is no action for a long time.

When people find peace at home, they are always sentimental. “Master, what’s wrong with you?”

A worried voice came, which made Gong Jing regain his senses. He shook the head bitterly.

“It’s okay.”

Gong Jing stepped forward again.

“How is Young Master’s condition? I heard…It seems to be getting better recently?”

“Yes.”

“Why did it suddenly get better Is it?”

Gong Jing’s grandson and Gong Tianqing’s twin younger brother ── Gong Tianyang has been weak since childhood, and the medicine is ineffective, so when Dao Palace Tianyang’s condition suddenly improved, Gong Tianyang Jing was not happy for the first time, but surprised.

“That’s the case. The old man brought back a strange doctor half a month ago. I saw this doctor dressing up weirdly. At first, I was worried about whether he came from a quack… It’s a little suspicious. This doctor is a veritable Divine Doctor, but it’s amazing. Young Master’s body gradually improved under his treatment. Recently, he can even get out of bed and walk a few steps.”

After suppressing the excitement in his heart several times and preventing it from exploding on his face, Gong Jing stopped again, and tremblingly asked the other party:

“Really?”

p>

“The little one dare not lie to you–just…”

The servant suddenly showed a look of hesitation, and Gong Jing picked frowned.

“Just what?”

“Divine Doctor said that he can cure Young Master’s disease.”

The head seemed to be hit by a stone.

──Can Yang’er’s disease be cured?

Gong Jing’s eyes widened in disbelief, unable to understand what he heard for a while.

＊

In the study, the flickering candlelight illuminates Gong Jing’s weather-beaten face. His eyes have accumulated nearly a hundred years of precipitation, but they are still as bright as old, deep and bright.

Elderly sitting at the desk, a dark shadow is reflected in his eyes—or rather, a black robe.

That was probably a man.

The figure is tall but slender, but the curve is flat, without the bumps and bumps that women should have. His face lurked in the shadow of his hood, making it difficult to distinguish his true appearance. Everything the man has is hidden in the robe and shadow, even the hands exposed from the robe are wrapped in a pair of black gloves.

He looks like a ghost in the extreme night, surrounded by a strange aura.

However, Gong Jing looked at him without fear.

The whole body of the man is black, only the eyes have a unique color.

The color of death.

It was a pair of gray and dull eyes.

There is a lot of past stuck in these eyes. The past has long been withered, obscured the brilliance of life, and even faintly exudes a stale taste, which makes people unhappy.

Gong Jing knows such eyes.

That is the eye that can interpret death to the greatest extent. Only the deceased or the person who has experienced death once but cannot get out of it can have eyes.

However, it is this man-this man who is associated with death, and brings hope to his grandson.

After lowering his eyes and sighed, Gong Jing finally spoke to dispel the silence that has echoed since the man stepped out of the study.

“I heard that you are called’tailor’?”

In the brief conversation with his son just now, Gong Jing learned that the so-called Divine Doctor in the servant’s mouth was called “tailor”.

Tailor.

These two characters are more like a code name than a name.

Gong Jing couldn’t be sure whether the man in front of him had no real name, after all, any era will not lack nameless orphans. This era is no exception.

However, there are also many people who cannot show their real names for various reasons.

Behind this peaceful era at first glance, there is an unimaginable turbulent undercurrent, just like the Supreme overlooking the hearts of all living beings.

“General Hui Gong, yes. The next name is’tailor’, without a surname, there is only’tailor’ that’s all.”

black robed man bowed slightly, respectfully Reply.

What is unexpected is that both his tone and voice are full of life and cheerfulness, without a trace of Death Aura, which is extremely incompatible with his appearance and temperament.

This kind of incongruity can only be described as weird.

Is the voice or the eyes more able to show the essence of this man? Gong Jing is frowned and can’t help but wonder.

However, Elderly did not choose to pursue it.

Whether it is a black cat or a white cat, as long as it catches a mouse, it is a good cat.

With the attitude of “dead horse as a living horse doctor”, Gong Jing decided to ignore the suspiciousness of the tailor.

“Well, I wrote it down.”

“It is an honor for the palace general to remember Xia’s name.”

For the tailor Gong Jing didn’t take it seriously, and waved his hand indifferently.

“This is the minimum amount of respect, what is the point.”

After the last word landed, Gong Jing got up from the sitting position and walked around the desk to the tailor. Even if it was close at hand, Gong Jing still did not see the true face of the tailor. The tailor’s face seemed to be dark.

“No more gossip, I don’t like to go around, so let’s be straight to the point.”

“a guest will comply with the wishes of the host, Naturally, there is no opinion in Xia.”

“Very good.”

Gong Jing took his hands and nodded with satisfaction.

Next, he squinted abruptly, bit the tailor’s eyes, and stared at him with a sharp gaze.

“Can you cure Yang’er’s disease?”

When this question was asked, Gong Jing was not at all on the surface calm. The surging emotions in his heart were hard to suppress, his heartbeat was so intense that even the rhythm of his breathing was messy.

At that time, he not at all noticed that his voice was shaking a little.

The tailor did not answer immediately, but fell silent inexplicably.

Although Gong Jing was anxious to know the answer, he calmly urged him not at all, but waited silently for the answer.

The tailor’s silence is shorter than expected.

“──Yes.”

Such simple words made his atrium jump abruptly, and Gong Jing managed to keep calm after several depressions. After taking a deep breath, he exhaled two words.

“Really?”

The tailor bowed his hands and said confidently:

“The words are true. Don’t dare to deceive the Great General.”

“It’s so good, tell me the details? How should Yang’er’s disease be treated.”

The tailor complied “Yes” and straightened his body.

“General Gong is a martial artist, so he should know where the source of martial arts,’True Qi’, comes from.”

Gong Jing is “um” nodded, sure The words of the tailor.

The source of martial artist’s power–True Qi is not born out of nothing, but through the mental method of internal strength, the Spiritual Qi that is flooded between Heaven and Earth is absorbed within the body and transformed into it . “‘Spiritual Qi’ is the source of the martial artist’s power. And all beings are creatures, more or less within the body will accumulate Spiritual Qi. Perhaps the Great General doesn’t know that, just like one needs breathing, we are within the body famous It also needs to breathe for the soul, and it is Spiritual Qi that it breathes.”

“Oh-?” Gong Jing’s voice raised, surprisingly, “This is the first time I heard this.”

“Not surprising, because this is an ancient Taoist theory.”

Gong Jing picked frowned.

“Ancient Taoism? Isn’t it the Taoism of the current Taoism?”

“Not all, since Hundred Schools of Thought Contend,’Wu Family’ and’Confucianism’ are separate The field of civil and martial arts has become the mainstream. Now Taoism is based on Taoism and integrates the theoretical ideas of’Wu Family’. As a price, Taoism has also lost some of its core ideas. Taoism now respects martial arts and ignores it. In the past, the Taoist teaching was well-known in the world.”

“Well, it seems that there is such a thing.”

Gong Jing is familiar with martial arts strategy, but he is not familiar with these hundred I’m not sure whether the tailor’s statement is true.

However, in the era of Hundred Schools of Thought Contend, it is rumored that there are countless unimaginable techniques and theories. Among them, the “Mohist School” is the most famous for its mechanical skills, leaving behind many legends of people’s joy.

“In ancient times, Taoism mainly studied a Spiritual Qi application technique called’Immortal Technique’. This technique is incompatible with the current martial arts theory, and it has been lost. But… recently I heard that someone at Heavenly Jade Palace has reproduced a similar technique.”

“Are you talking about Sue Kirin, a natural disaster?”

Gong Jing still heard about it even though he was far from the northern border Go to Heavenly Jade Gongxiao Ancestor Master’s deeds, and her unique “cultivation technique” spell.

“The general is really well informed.”

The tailor expressed admiration and complimented him.

“It’s not a big deal, she has already spread throughout the entire Chinese dynasty that she broke into Heavenly Sword Gate alone.”

Not a self-conceited rhetoric, but a statement that cannot be denied fact.

The tailor laughed indifferent expression.

“Getting back to the subject, Gong Little Young Master’s disease is a kind of’Spiritual Qi’ disease. People are born with’Wu Gen.’ Wu Gen was called’spirit root’ in the era of Hundred Schools of Thought Contend. It is the key to absorbing the’Spiritual Qi’. However, Gong Little Young Master Innate Spirit Root is weak and cannot bear a large amount of Spiritual Qi. General Gong, you can imagine what happens when you fill a bowl full of cracks with water Needless to say, it was naturally overwhelmed and then collapsed-and Gong Little Young Master’s situation is exactly similar to this.”

“Well, how should I treat it?”

“Although this disease is rare and intractable, it is not without precedent. I have traveled around the country and seen several similar cases. Although most people suffering from this disease will not live to be twenty years old, they have experienced Research shows that this disease is not completely medicine and stoneless, Gong Little Young Master still has a trace of vitality.”

“Where is the vitality?”

“I remember that General Gong still has a granddaughter, right? “

asked the tailor unfathomable mystery.

Although Gong Jing is full of puzzles, he still bases the truth.

“Yes, I also have a granddaughter.”

“That’s great.”

For some reason, the tailor’s voice suddenly became distant.

“──The vitality lies in the granddaughter of the palace general.”

──hong long long!

It rained suddenly outside the house.

The raging thunder struck the night sky, and its bright light illuminates the entire Chang’an.

The things that come into view make Gong Jing stared wide-eyed.

Although it was only a moment, Gong Jing’s and indeed saw the tailor’s face hidden in the shadows.

A delicate and pretty face as pale as a dead person.

The most eye-catching thing is the neck that connects the head and the body and is full of stitches.

At this moment, Gong Jing like falling in a ice hole, chill wrapped around his body.

＊

“──Tailor.”

A calm and deep call sounded.

As soon as the tailor left the courtyard of Gong Jing, he was stopped. He stopped and looked towards the corner where the sound came from.

The owner of the voice appeared from the shadow under the tree. He is a middle-aged man.

The heroic looks like a knife is not angry and prestigious, and there is a bit of Gong Jing’s shadow between his brows. The man’s figure is quite normal, but he exudes a distinctive oppression.

His eyes are shining sharply all the time, and the substantive eyes are bright and frightening.

Maybe few people in this world dare to look at him, after all, that is the charm of a long-term high-ranking person who has accumulated over the years.

However, under the gaze of these eyes, Tai Ruo naturally walked to the other side and bowed his fists to say hello.

“I saw Master Gong Yue Gong below.”

Gong Yue.

The son of Gong Jing, the minister of war.

“en.”

Gong Yue made a sound that he didn’t know if it was “um” or “hmph” and responded briefly.

“Master Gong asked to live here, what’s the order?”

The tailor deliberately put on a puzzled posture and asked tentatively.

Hearing the other party’s question, the more Gong sneered disdainfully.

“You knowingly ask.”

The darkness under the hood suddenly receded slightly.

As a result, the lips hidden in the shadows surfaced and exposed. The corners of the tailor’s lips were raised high, portraying an untimely bright smile.

“Master Gong really clear as a flame, you can see what you are doing.”

“Let’s take flattery less.”

“Indeed, Master Gong should also listen to it after a year. There have been a lot of similar compliments, but I have missed it.”

The tailor’s laughter was extremely dry, like the sound of bones rubbing.

The more Gong took up his hands, unhappily picked frowned.

“I thought you knew nothing except medical skills and conspiracy. Didn’t expect a mouth full of sharp teeth.”

“Master Gong is too acclaimed .”

For Gong Yue’s sarcasm, the tailor didn’t care much, but responded smoothly:

“Life in this world is either to have extraordinary talents or to speak. Said. If you are not talented, you can only try to get a mouth that can reverse the darkness of right and wrong.”

“hmph, it’s really unpleasant.”

Gong Yue smashed. Mouth, very dissatisfied.

“These nonsense is so pointless, you and I have something to ask for, it’s just a pure partnership that’s all. So don’t be so circumspect, just talk about business.”

” My lord really—”

Did he even listen? Gong Yue solemnly interrupted the tailor’s compliment.

“Talk about business.”

“Didn’t expect Master Gong is so anxious.” The tailor’s tone was embarrassing. “It’s about my son’s life, how could I not be anxious? Since you know that I’m in a hurry, and you deliberately say something and not, are you planning to make fun of it?”

Gong Yue’s tone remains the same Calm.

In spite of this, the tailor can still capture anger keenly. Gong Yue seemed to be angry.

This is no wonder.

Gong Yueming was anxious for his father’s reply, but the tailor kept thinking about him, not getting into the topic for a long time.

For Gong Yue’s dissatisfaction, the tailor still remains unmoved.

“I don’t dare to be happy, but I just find it interesting that’s all.”

The tailor laughed untimely, causing Gong Yue’s mouth to twitch.

If it is replaced by others playing tricks on themselves, the sooner Gong will fall out to become hostile. However, his lifeblood ── the life of his only son is in the hands of the opponent, making him avoid rat throwing and unable to attack.

“hmph, it’s really inadequate and conspiracy.”

Gong more vigorously waved his sleeves, turned angrily, but did not leave. His feet seemed to be filled with lead and it was difficult to lift. His son’s life and health are deeply bound to him, making him almost unable to be himself.

He can’t let the Gong Family become a sinner of the ages after his this generation.

There are three kinds of unfilial piety, and the last is the greatest-this commandment is about to drive him crazy.

Gong Yue believes that his whole life is straightforward and upright without any taint. He can’t let his brilliance be lost here, nor can he allow the Gong Family to die.

Even more how, Gong Tianyang is his biological son. As a father, how can he watch his son be tortured by illness, become thinner and eventually die?

All these father’s responsibilities, the son’s responsibilities and the honor of being a man, form a framework, and he can only live in the framework and move forward blindly.

Many times, people think that there is only one way.

They are not free.

Neither Gong Yue himself nor his father is an exception, and Gong Yue believes that no one can be an exception.

However, his entanglement is reflected in the eyes of the tailor, what color will it look like? Perhaps it will be a ridiculous color.

“Master Gong’s mind, I finally understand it.”

The tailor bowed deeper and deeper towards the palace.

Not out of admiration, but a kind of cynicism.

At that time, Gong Yue was not at all aware of the disdain and ridicule buried in the darkness.

Gong Yue was silent for a while.

“It’s good if you understand.”

“So the adults want to know the answer of Ling’s father, right?”

Gong Yue indifferent expression, just like He glanced at the tailor suspiciously. However, the tailor said “so that’s how it is”, nodded with understanding.

“Your father ──Gong Great General, he…”

I don’t know if it was on purpose, the tailor suddenly fell silent. Gong Yue was so angry that she almost didn’t catch it in one breath. It felt like she was forced to interrupt her sex when she reached a climax, which made people extremely depressed.

Seeing Gong Yue’s face flushed with suffocation, the tailor snickered happily.

Then, when Gong Yue’s face was ugly, he gave the answer in a deep voice.

“──General Gong agreed.”

“Really?”

Miyagoshi finally couldn’t bear it, smearing overjoyed expression on his face. His son finally got a hope, and he didn’t want to fail because of father’s refusal.

Although this hope is black, and it requires a price.

However, Gong Yue thinks it is worth it.

There is nothing more important than the salvation of his son.

“General Gong hesitated for a long time, but finally agreed.”

──Father can only nodded agree, Gong Yue secretly added in the heart.

After all, it is about the survival of the family. Besides compromise, is there any other choice? No.

Although he had expected the result early in the morning, he was restless until he heard the answer, for fear that father would unexpectedly refuse the visit of “Hope”.

“The Palace General has ordered people to go to Heavenly Jade Palace to invite Gong Young Lady back home.”

Speaking of this, the tailor suddenly raised his head to look at the sky.

“It’s already late at night, I guess the people from General Palace will only leave tomorrow.”

As it should be by rights.

Chang’an City has a curfew. If there is nothing important, you can’t leave the city, if there are no special things, or the emperor’s approval, even Gong Jing, who is the Great General of the North of Zhenbei, cannot resist this Tao has an increasingly strict curfew since five years ago.

But why is this mentioned? Gong Yue felt a little puzzled. He didn’t think that the tailor just said casually that there should be any deep meaning behind it.

The result, as he expected.

“──This is not in accordance with the’will of God’!”

After a deep sigh, profound words flowed out.

God’s will, the meaning of God.

It is unpredictable, and it is confusing until now.

Is God really alive? Gong Yue had boldly questioned several times. He doesn’t believe that heaven has a will, if God really has a will, it must be a cruel will.

Before that, Gong Yue didn’t think that the “will of heaven” in the tailor’s mouth was a general “will of heaven.”

The word “天” generally refers to the heaven, but it can also refer to ──

Son of Heaven.

Could it be…! Gong Yue, who was keenly aware of the unusual, stared slightly, his eyes filled with inescapable consternation.
