These were all words of superstitions, but everyone believed them.
Helian Beiming was the Divine General of Nanzhao.
Once he was touched by bad luck, it would not only harm the Helian family, but the entire Nanzhao Nation that he protected.
Even if he had to comfort the commoners, Helian Beiming could not openly pay respects to his brother who had died.


Yu Wan held her chin and said, In that case, this general is quite loyal.
Then Helian Qis death would not be easily forgotten.
God bless them and not let the general discover them.

Yu Wan thought of something and asked, When did his brother fall off the cliff?

Thirty-five years ago.
The old man said.

The reason why the old man remembered it so clearly was because that year, he had just become the priest of the clan.
When he heard that the second son of the Helian family of the Nanzhao Nation was born, he wanted to represent the clan to congratulate them.
However, bad news suddenly came.
There was no need to go.
The second son of the Helian family had died young.

Thirty-five Yu Wan murmured.
He was the same age as her father.

.

The group rested at the inn for the night.

Thanks to Helian Beiming, the magistrate prefecture did not arrest them with great fanfare.
Otherwise, if Helian Beiming found out that the dignified West City could not even keep an eye on a few petty criminals who bought fake travel passes, their official position would probably end.

However, the inspection of travel passes had become even stricter.
Even if one spent ten thousand gold, they might not be able to buy a travel pass.

The old man sighed helplessly.
Theres only one last way left.


An hour later, the group appeared in front of a house in the south of the city.
Yu Wan looked at the four words on the plaqueLongmen Escort Agency.

Grandma, are we going to run an escort? She asked.

The old man said, In Nanzhao, theres only one kind of person who doesnt need a travel pass.

Escort? Yu Wan asked.

Gu Master, the old man replied.

The escort agency of Nanzhao was not only used to escort items.
Gu Masters were also the main targets of escort.
Because the people of Nanzhao believed in the Gu God, the status of Gu Masters in Nanzhao was no small matter.
As long as they were lucky and could receive a mission to escort the Gu Master, they could successfully avoid the investigation of the authorities.

Yu Wan thought for a while and asked, Does the escort agency dare to use someone without a travel pass?

The old man said, The Gu Master will first poison the person who escorts.
He will detoxify the Gu when we reach our destination.

I see.
Yu Wan was enlightened.

Gu Masters are very noble, but at the same time, they are also very fragile.
An expert like Ah Wei was almost rare in a hundred years.
When Gu Masters chose their escorts, as long as their martial arts were strong enough, they did not mind their background.


The old man began to regret not bringing Ah Wei along.
How lucky was it to have a powerful Gu Master in Nanzhao?

The few of them were quite lucky and really encountered a Gu Master going to the Capital.

This Gu Master had been invited by a certain aristocratic family in the Capital.
The aristocratic family had originally sent guards, but they had encountered robbers halfway and the guards were injured.
In order not to delay the journey, the Gu Master had come to the Longmen Escort Agency to look for guards and escorts.

Jiang Hai, Qing Yan, and Yue Gous martial arts stood out from many escorts, and the Gu Master decided to hire them.
However, the three of them requested that their families be brought along.
Otherwise, they would not accept this escort.

The Gu Master agreed.
However, the Gu Master also raised his conditions.
Everyone accompanying him had to be planted with his unique Gu.

The Gu Master said arrogantly, Dont worry, as long as I reach the Capital safely, Ill naturally detoxify you.

The group stepped into the carriage heading to the Imperial Capital.

Gu Masters had always been the target of competition from aristocratic families.
No one was willing to offend a Gu Master because no one knew if there was a very powerful family behind this Gu Master.

When they left the city gate, the guard saw that the other party was a Gu Master and immediately let his team pass respectfully.

Hmph.
The carriage drove on the wide official road.
In the second carriage, Yan Jiuchao snorted indifferently.


Yan Jiuchao was the Princely Heir.
In the past, when they were traveling, his carriage would always be at the front.
Now that a third-rate Gu Master had come, his carriage would move to second place.
It was no wonder that Princely Heir, who had never bowed to anyone, would roll his eyes.

Yu Wan peeled a fresh pair of longan.
It was August of the Mid-Autumn Festival, and she could no longer eat such full longan in the Capital, but she could still buy some in Nanzhao.

Yu Wan fed Yan Jiuchao the peeled longan.
Yan Jiuchao did not eat.
This fellow was still angry.
Strictly speaking, it was not his fault.

Previously, Yan Jiuchao had seen a Gu Master in Lotus Flower Village.
That Gu Master was greedy and had almost ruined Yan Jiuchaos good impression of Gu Masters.
Putting aside this matter for the time being, the young Gu Master in front of him was clearly not easy to get along with.
Jiang Hai, Qing Yan, and Yue Gou were clearly the people he had hired, but he insisted on instructing Yan Jiuchao to do things.

Young Master Yan had never been ordered around before! If Qing Yan hadnt stopped him quickly, Young Master Yan would have split him open on the spot.

Yu Wan said softly, My husband is the most magnanimous.
He wont be angry with that kind of person.

Yan Jiuchao frowned.
Yu Ah Wan, are you indirectly calling me petty?

When did I?

Hmph! Yan Jiuchao fell onto the simple bed behind him, rolled up the blanket, and swung his big butt at Yu Wan.
Yu Wan moved towards him and kissed his face with a smile.

Yu Ah Wan!


Yes.

Yan Jiuchao felt stifled, so he puffed up his cheeks resentfully, and went to sleep! Yu Wan held his shoulder and comforted him softly.
Isnt he just a brat? Lets ignore him and not talk to him.

However, Yu Wan quickly realized that she was too naive.
Some people would skin you alive if you didnt take the initiative to provoke them.

That Gu Master was young, but someone had spoiled him into putting on airs.
When he was at the courier station at night, he did not burn the mosquito repellent grass.
He ordered Jiang Hai to catch all the mosquitoes in his room, not leaving a single one behind.

When he was hungry in the middle of the night, he did not eat from the inn.
He woke Yue Gou up and asked him to go to a small town twenty miles away to buy a portion of starch jelly that had long been sold.

Qing Yan bought a box of chestnut cake for Yu Wan.
Before he could enter the inn, the Gu Master intercepted him.

Also, the clothes need to be washed.
With that, he took a bite and found it disgusting.
He spat it back into the box and returned it to Qing Yan.

Qing Yan was so angry that he almost beat him up on the spot! A mere third-rate Gu Master could not even compare to Ah Weis toes.
Ah Wei did not dare to show them an attitude like this.
Was this little coward worthy?!

Not only were Qing Yan and the other two tortured by the Gu Master, even Zi Su and Fu Ling were not spared.
However, what really angered everyone was something else.
