Gu Chen stayed in the White Whale Mansion for a long time, and he always believed in the principle of the jungle.

In his opinion, no matter how great the secular power is, it cannot match the monk's Taoist supernatural powers, but this Confucianism has opened his eyes.

While serving the royal family of China, they helped govern the empire with Confucian ideas. Half of the officials in the court came from Confucianism.

On the other hand, they merged with the people of Li, so that the royal family was wary of rats and did not dare to disturb them.

The existence of such a force is unimaginable in the White Whale Mansion, but in the context of the entire Middle-Earth Empire, it appears to be reasonable.

"The influence of Confucianism is extremely huge, and the Shen family has the highest reputation among the various schools of Confucianism. In this way, you should understand how powerful they are?"

Ji Lanchu said, Gu Chen nodded.

He was a little more certain in his heart that the mother's family that Elder Nangong mentioned back then was probably the Shen family.

His mother's surname is Shen. She has read poetry and books since she was a child, but she has no strength to restrain a chicken. She has many similarities with Confucian disciples.

I just don't know what kind of status she is in the Shen family, even the Huangfu family has to think about it.

Gu Chen had a lot of thoughts in his mind, what Ji Lanchu said unintentionally gave him very precious information.

First, if he wants to know what happened to his father three years ago, whether he is dead or alive, I am afraid that Huangfude knows best.

Second, the mother is from the Shen family, and after burning down their Tiannan City home and leaving, it is very likely that she returned to the Shen family. In other words, she may be in the Middle-earth Empire right now!

Gu Chen was very excited. Ever since he escaped from Fenglin Mansion, one of the things he cared about the most was the whereabouts of his mother. Now he finally has a clue!

Even the mystery of his father's disappearance was gradually unraveled, for which he was especially grateful.

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness."

Gu Chen saluted Ji Lanchu with a smile on his face.

"What are you doing?"

Ji Lan was overwhelmed by flattery at the beginning, but Gu Chen was always cold, and never took her princess status seriously. He would do this, it was like the sun came out from the west.

"Just call me Lan Chu."

Seeing that Gu Chen didn't explain much, Ji Lanchu said softly, turning her face sideways, her ears blushed a little unknown.

"In the Eastern Wilderness, the tentacles of the Middle Earth Court and the Heavenly Mirror Mansion are hard to reach, but Lan Chu, you still have to be careful about the tracking of the Underworld Palace. In addition, there are other things that need to be paid attention to in the Eastern Wilderness."

After Gu Chen asked about the relevant information three years ago, he reminded.

He was originally from the Eastern Wilderness, so he could give her some advice.

Being single is definitely not easy.

"I understand, I will be careful in everything from now on."

Ji Lanchu listened carefully, and felt that Gu Chen's concern for her was sincere, so she couldn't help but smile.

"Just talk about me, what about you? Where are you going next? You are originally from Donghuang, what are you going to do in Kyushu?"

Gu Chen pondered for a while, going to Zhenwu Academy was originally a mission assigned to him by the Heavenly Court, so he shouldn't say much, but Ji Lanchu told him everything, and gave him extremely important information, and it's okay to talk about his destination.

It is a great kindness to give clues to her parents, tell her her destination, and if she encounters trouble one day, she may be able to help her.

"I'm going to Zhenwu Academy to find someone." He replied.

"Oh? What a coincidence! I have studied in Zhenwu Academy for several years, and Vice President Qi of the academy is my mentor."

She thought for a while, "That's good, I'll write you a letter of recommendation, if you encounter any trouble there, you can find my senior sister Mu Ziyu."

"You can rest assured, Senior Sister and I have the same love as sisters. She also helped me in the matter of escaping marriage. She will not reveal your relationship with me."

"Then I will trouble you."

Gu Chen didn't refuse, and took the other party's heart.

The two talked for a long time, and the atmosphere was harmonious. They both felt comfortable talking to each other, and there was a magnetic field like a spring breeze.

Gu Chen was living a life of licking blood on the tip of a knife, and he rarely had a partner who could speak so freely. Most of his life was spent in penance and beatings and killings.

Ji Lan was born in the royal family, and faced with intrigues and deceptions all day long, she also had to guard against the ambitious royal family, and her life was always tiring.

The two have many similarities, but each has its own attraction to each other.

For a while, the atmosphere turned out to be warm and affectionate.

...

The time to get together is always short, and when parting comes, Ji Lanchu is inexplicably nostalgic.

"Take care all the way. If you need any help in the future, you can come to Zhenwu Academy to find me. If I'm not there by then, you can find me in this way."

Gu Chen handed out a note.

Ji Lanchu stretched out her slender hand, took it from Gu Chen, and solemnly put the note away.

"You take care too."

she said softly.

"Squeak!"

Waking up from sleep, the white ape waved a colorful tree and jumped up and down in protest.

"What did the little monkey say?"

Ji Lanchu couldn't help laughing.

"It protested that you only said goodbye to me, not to it."

Gu Chen said with a smile.

Ji Lanchu understood immediately, and stepped forward to stroke the fluffy and soft hair of the white ape. "Goodbye, little monkey."

The white ape immediately squinted his eyes in enjoyment, wagging his tail.

"There will be a period later."

Ji Lanchu finally flew away from this place and embarked on a solitary journey.

Gu Chen looked at her leaving back, feeling a little lost for no reason.

"Wish you all the best."

He murmured, shook his head, and discarded all the messy thoughts.

It's time to go to Zhenwu Academy!

I wasted some time and took a long detour, so I have to speed up the trip!

"Let's go, little guy. This thing is too eye-catching in your hand, so I'll keep it for you first."

Gu Chen looked at the white ape, and reached for the colorful tree in its hand.

The white ape immediately hid away, squeaked a few words, and looked contemptuously at Gu Chen.

"Ahem, just keep it safe, don't worry, I won't embezzle your things."

Gu Chen explained with a guilty conscience that the white ape had found a lot of good things before, such as the Nine Yin Stones, and finally sold them to Gu Chen.

So this little guy was a lot more vigilant this time, and refused to hand over the colorful little tree.

Gu Chen is very curious about this colorful little tree. For it, the white ape is willing to risk being trapped in the Valley of the Rage God forever. After coming out, he never leaves his hand, and regards it as a treasure.

After chatting with Bai Yuan, the little miser slowly let go of his guard and handed the colorful little tree to Gu Chen.

The so-called money is not revealed, it is safer to put it in the storage ring than to hold it in your hand.

Gu Chen reached out to take the trunk of the small tree, held it in front of his eyes for inspection, and at this moment, a strange thing happened.

From the body of the colorful little tree, a faint suction was released, which faintly affected the vitality in his body.

With a thought in his mind, Yuanli was injected into the colorful little tree.

boom!

The suction power was magnified ten times, and the colorful small tree burst into a burst of bright flames, and all the vegetation within a hundred meters around completely withered in an instant, as if they had been drained of their vitality!
