Ever since his return that day, the imperial government had sealed off the surroundings of the Mirror Lake. The monsters of the Mirror Lake were spread among the people of the capital in multiple versions.

Have you heard? There was a water monster on the Mirror Lake!

I've seen it before. It was, hey, taller than the tower, with eyes like a pair of lanterns.

To say that there were evil officials and villains in the court, was that a god sent down by the heavens?

That water monster didn't come down from the sky. It came out from the ground.

You said that we wouldn't suffer a disaster, but the water monster came out once every three hundred years, and when it came out, it had to eat five hundred children at once.

Sigh!

Ah, I have to pick up my son from the private school.

We brothers will go drink two cups.

Let's go!

This matter took a long time before the Prime Minister managed to catch his breath. After that day, the Mrs. Gu became ill with no medicine nor medicine, and it took a whole summer before she could recover.

Both Gu Sikong and Gu Yinfeng were slightly injured and nothing serious had happened to them, but Gu Changge was not injured, but was treated as a first-rate patient by his family to be protected.

Ever since Gu Yinfeng told his story to his father, Gu Sikong started to reflect on his daughter's abnormal behavior.

If one were to say that his son had lied to him, that was impossible, because he had personally seen the Corpse Devil.

This girl was easily frightened when she was young, when she grew up she often said that she saw something that others couldn't see, if she said that no one believed her, then she would leave it at that, and now that such a thing had happened, it was impossible for Gu Sikong to not think about it for his daughter.

He had invited Supervisor Qin Tian to come home and drink tea in person, and Supervisor Qin Tian was still ridiculing him. Didn't Prime Minister Gu always object to the Emperor overhearing this old man's slanderous words? Why did you have the interest to invite this old man over for tea today?

Being able to observe the stars at night could also be considered a blessing in disguise. From the empress dowager to the maids in the palace, they all liked to find him for a divination, to avert danger and avoid disaster.

Earlier, when the palace had a pandemic, the imperial physician was helpless to do anything about it. However, he had grabbed a palace maid in one go and ordered people to burn the palace maid to death. The next day, everyone's disease had miraculously healed.

To tell you the truth, I've invited you to come here so that you can see my daughter …

The old man was stroking his grizzled beard, his smile unchanging. "Do you want me to tell you the truth or a lie?"

But it doesn't matter.

The white-bearded old man walked around the hall and said, "This daughter of mine probably won't be able to stay in the mansion."

Gu Sikong's expression changed, even if she hated him for not being able to win, he still had this one daughter, the only parent in the world, who wouldn't hold her in their hands and be afraid of losing her?

Why did my daughter say that when you've never seen her?

When I was at the palace, I knew that you had a daughter in your family who had an extremely murderous aura. It wasn't a big deal when you were young, but as you grew older, you might attract some unnecessary things, such as the calamity in the spring.

The nightmare brought by the Corpse Devil was still fresh in his mind, and the Immortal Lord his son mentioned seemed to have said that Zhang Ge had an evil aura around him. Gu Sikong was startled: "My daughter has been raised in a deep room since she was young, how could she have an evil aura around her?"

This baleful aura belongs to the innate realm and has nothing to do with your daughter. Although I don't know how to dispel this baleful aura due to my shallow cultivation experience, I have a way to give the prime minister a try!

Please speak!

Firstly, she could ensure her safety. Secondly, the Immortal Mountain Blessed Land would definitely be able to eliminate the baleful aura on her body. If her talent allowed her to understand the secrets of heaven, then she could be considered a great achievement.

Absolutely not! Gu Sikong almost blurted out.

The old man chuckled. He knew that the Prime Minister loved his daughter dearly and wanted to tie her up by his side to wait for disaster to befall her. The Prime Minister should think twice before doing anything else.

Gu Sikong slumped onto the chair. Usually when he talked about cultivation sects, he would snort disdainfully, feeling that it was all because of his strange power.

Now that something had happened right in front of his eyes, he had no choice but to believe it.

That... Does the supervisor have a good place to go?

This old man follows the Qinghua Sect of the Yuxiao Kongque Mountain, but unfortunately, this old man did not learn enough to become an immortal through tribulation.

Yuxiao Kongque Mountain? It seemed to be recorded in the Classic of the Mountains and Seas? Was there really such a mountain in the world?

Prime Minister, the Nine Heavens and Eight Desolations were originally devoid of a single mortal. Mortal beings were destitute, so where they were unable to go, they would think that they did not exist. The boundless universe was so vast that mortals could only sit and watch the sky.

Gu Sikong shamefully nodded his head: Since mortals cannot go, then how should I go? Could it be that my lord also knows the technique of controlling the sword?

This old man will cultivate the Star Phenomenon in Qinghua Sect, and the most important thing is to behead demons and exterminate demons. In this place, please forgive this old man for not revealing too much, but it is also easy to climb the mountain, you can simply obtain the method.

What was this' method '?

August 15th. Full moon night. The immortal led the way for Huai Shui from the east.

Gu Sikong was originally from Jiangbei and wanted to bring this old lady back to the capital to enjoy his fortune after his rise in status, but the old man refused. After Changge was born, the old man had asked Changge to accompany her for a few months.

This time, seeing Zhang Ge off to the Yuxiao Kongque Mountain, Mrs. Gu would definitely not be willing to part with him. She could only tell Yue Bing that the Old Mistress had missed her granddaughter, and only then did Mrs. Gu agree.

On the night of the fifteenth day of the eighth month, the dark blue sky was vast and boundless. The silver moon cast a white veil of light over the river, adding a layer of mist to the river.

When Gu Sikong and his group arrived at the shore of the Huai River, it was already late at night. Looking at the moon, Gu Yinfeng saw that it was cold and clear without end, so Gu Yinfeng helped his sister down from the carriage.

Was it cold? Gu Yinfeng frowned, and pulled tightly onto Chang Ge's cloak.

Longsong yawned and shook his head. Not cold.

Gu Sikong sighed: Changge, can you blame daddy for sending you to the Immortal Mountain to learn?

How could I blame daddy? Daddy only did it for his daughter's good, so he told me to go to the Immortal Mountain to acknowledge him as my master because he knew that I was lacking in the art of zither, chess and painting.

I'd rather you made me angry at home!

Gu Changge snickered and hid in Gu Yinfeng's embrace: Big Brother, don't make Daddy angry in the future too.

Gu Yinfeng took two steps forward and said: I want to accompany my little sister!

In the past, this son of his was unlucky. But today, Gu Sikong wished that he could accompany Zhang Ge and help him out.

The imperial overseer shook his head and said, "I only recommend one person to the sect, and that is your daughter."

Then let Yinfeng send you on your way?

Since someone had come to assist, the Prime Minister did not have to worry.

As he spoke, he had already brought a light boat over. The boatman was not that old, but he had the bearing of a Daoist. He cupped his hands together and chuckled twice, but did not say anything.

This is the guide, Miss Gu. Please get on the boat.

When Gu Yinfeng saw this, he was extremely reluctant: My sister is a girl, what if she gets sold by this Sphinx, no! I want to accompany her!
