Chapter 286 Scroll
Gu Tinglou breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that he didn't need to inquire about the news.
"Then we should pay attention to the news from Wujiyuan so that we can take precautions early. By the way, those refugees are about to cross the mountain. What are your plans?"
"Sixth Grandma, can I trust you and Sixth Grandpa?" Bai Jingzhi did not answer, but asked back.
Gu Tinglou was stunned. "Of course! We have helped a lot these days, you should know that."
Bai Jingzhi stared at Gu Tinglou with his big eyes, "Sixth Grandma, if there is a day when I have a disagreement with the Wei family, who will you side with?"
Gu Tinglou looked embarrassed and avoided the question, "This... this question is a bit difficult to choose."
After a long while, she finally gave the answer:
“The Wei family gave me a place to shelter from the wind and rain, and my family lived well in the Wei family.
But you gave respect and trust here.
If that day really comes, Dayong, I don’t know, but my husband and I will stand on your side.”
After the fight between them that day, she told Wei Liu everything that night.
Wei Liu also noticed Bai Jingzhi's concerns and told her that if Bai Jingzhi mentioned the Wei family again, she must tell her that their choice was Bai Jingzhi.
Gu Tinglou asked Wei Liu that night why he made this choice.
They have been in the Wei family for most of their lives, and only spent a few months with Bai Jingzhi, but it was unexpected that Wei Liu switched sides to Bai Jingzhi.
These were things Gu Tinglou had not expected.
She had wanted to persuade him, but she didn't know how much effort it would take. After all, Wei Liu was a member of the Wei family's side branch and had deep feelings for the Wei family and the head of the family.
When they arrived at Wujiyuan, almost all the people entrusted with important tasks by Bai Jingzhi were women, and the men only followed orders.
There are no constraints on female virtues here.
Over the years, Gu Tinglou has lived the most comfortable life.
She doesn't have to care about the opinions of people around her here, she can do the most important things.
In the Wei family, she has the title of head coach.
Almost all the Eighteen Generals of the Wei family were trained by her.
In the end, those people only showed her respect on the surface and did not take her seriously, simply because she was just a woman.
Both he and his wife were kept in the dark about what happened in Lingzhou.
Gu Tinglou was sent out and did not experience what happened in Lingzhou.
She had a vague suspicion that the patriarch and his son were not dead.
The troops that appeared in Yanzhou some time ago offered grain in the name of the Wei family. Gu Tinglou suspected that it was Wei Zhong, the eldest uncle of the Wei family.
She told Wei Liu about this matter, but Wei Liu still didn't believe it.
Only Bai Jingzhi believed it, and the two of them even had an argument about it.
A few days ago she was not sure which side to choose, but these days she is sure.
The women here live very freely.
This is what Gu Tinglou longs for most.
Bai Jingzhi was a little surprised. "I can understand why Sixth Grandma favors me, but why does Sixth Grandpa do that? Doesn't he already know that the master of the Wei family is still alive?"
She did not ask who in the Wei family was still alive. She only had a guess in her mind, and Wei Liu should be able to guess it.
If both the couple favored her, then she would naturally be more than happy to do so, as she had few people at her disposal.
Especially there are no ones as omnipotent as Wei Liu and his wife.
These two people have top-notch abilities and knowledge. With their help, Wujiyuan will have an easier time on Baijingzhi's side.
"Sixth Grandma, is this your and your husband's decision?"
"Of course, I'll call your Sixth Grandfather over!"
Gu Tinglou's heart was pounding. He had a feeling that something was going to happen, and this thing was very likely to change their family.
Just now, the two of them came to Bai Jingzhi's daily office to talk. After Bai Yue'e and others left, they also walked in.
"Are you okay?"
Bai Yue'e was still a little worried, so she took the money from Old Lady Bai and talked to Xiao Wang for a while to build relationships with her. Only then did she have time to come over.
"Nothing! Don't worry. I'm going to bring them both into the space. We'll need a lot of people later, so this will be more convenient."
Bai Jingzhi explained in two sentences.
"Are you not afraid of leaks?" Bai Yue'e was a little nervous. "If people outside knew you had this thing, I don't know what kind of bloody storm would be set off."
The founder of Wugui Mountain, who was also the great master of the previous dynasty, had space.
But she is not an ordinary person, she is a cultivator.
Some people knew the master's secret and wanted to steal it, but unfortunately the master was too powerful and she took care of all those greedy people.
"You are just a mortal! If it is really leaked, we may not be able to protect you. You can hide in the space, but you can't hide there forever."
Bai Yue'e lowered her brows and eyes, her face full of worry.
"I won't let them in recently. I'll think of a foolproof solution. I won't let them know that this is my space."
Bai Jingzhi has been thinking about these things these days.
If they could think of a solution that would satisfy both parties, as long as Bai Zhao went there, she could send the person over.
This saves time and effort.
She had been dreaming these past few nights. She dreamed of something, but after searching carefully, there was no trace of it.
She didn't mention it to anyone else, thinking it was just an illusion.
Thinking of the little gift Tianhe mentioned, Bai Jingzhi felt that there was no need to think too much about it. There must be some good thing there that she didn't know about yet, and what she saw was not an illusion.
"Jingzhi, we are coming!"
Gu Tinglou dragged Wei Liu in from outside. Both the couple drank some wine, and Wei Liu drank even more.
"Your Sixth Grandfather has not been slacking off for a few days. He drank a little too much today. If you need us to do anything, I will help him."
Wei Liu's face turned red and he staggered as he walked.
"Nothing, just signing, he should come in person." Bai Jingzhi said calmly, taking out a scroll from his arms, "Write your names with your fingers, and don't betray me, otherwise you will be wiped out."
What Tianhe gave her was not an ordinary item.
In the past few days, she has figured out that anyone who writes his or her name on it will disappear from this world in an instant if he or she betrays her in the future.
Gu Tinglou didn't take it seriously after hearing this. He used his index finger as a pen and wrote the three words "Gu Tinglou" on the scroll.
In just a moment, the name disappeared without a trace.
"Is this... so magical?"
Bai Yue'e was watching from the side and was also surprised by the result.
She didn't expect that this scroll was so magical. She always saw Jingzhi fiddling with it at night in the past few days.
Wei Liu did not see the whole process, he just did whatever Gu Tinglou asked him to do.
His name is Wei Fan.
Bai Jingzhi suddenly realized, no wonder he always called himself Wei Liu, feeding, it was indeed interesting.
The name flashed across it, and the scroll seemed like a wordless book.
Everyone in the room, except Bai Jingzhi, was in awe.
