Chapter 294 Socializing

Gu Changqing and Gu Changde had already said goodbye to the Yan family and returned to the Gu family's rented house, and Gu Xuanzhan also visited the next day.

The Gu family was only a purple mansion family, and Gu Xuanzhan was only in the early purple mansion stage, so naturally he had no chance to meet the Yuanying ancestor of the Yan family. He was entertained by Yan Rici, a Jindan cultivator of the Yan family.

After a polite thank you, Gu Xuanzhan also said goodbye.

Yan Rici did not try to keep him, after all, he had to entertain many cultivators every day, and he did not have the extra energy to be polite with a small purple mansion family in Qingzhou.

He was able to personally entertain Gu Xuanzhan because of Gu Changqing's face.

After all, no matter where you are, young geniuses like Gu Changqing are rare. It's a pity that the Gu family is just a small purple mansion family. Gu Changqing's future path may be a bit bumpy.

When he was at the Yan family, he did inquire whether Gu Changqing had the idea of ​​marrying into the Yan family, but Gu Changqing said without hesitation that he had no idea of ​​finding a Taoist partner.

It was just a pity for Yan Rici, but even so, he would not give any benefits to Gu Changqing and the Gu family for no reason. After all, the Gu family was not a subsidiary of their Yan family, and the Lanzhou where the Yan family was located was too far away from Qingzhou. There was no benefit in supporting them, so why bother.

Of course, Gu Changhuan was not very clear about these things.

He looked at the two people who were concentrating on playing chess, and did not say anything. He quietly walked to the chessboard and watched the two people play chess.

He could not be called proficient in Go, but it was not difficult to see the situation and the outcome.

He had played several games with Gu Xuanzhan. Gu Xuanzhan's style of play was indifferent, seemingly inaction and casual, but in the later stage, he was full of murderous intent, and he could always kill Gu Changhuan, a half-baked player;

And now, the person playing against Gu Xuanzhan is Gu Changqing. Gu Changqing is different from Gu Changhuan. He is quite accomplished in Go, but he has never shown it.

Gu Changqing plays a sharp style of chess, is not good at defense, and is good at attacking as defense; he can't figure out Gu Xuanzhan's way, and has begun to test it.

Gu Xuanzhan is still in a stable layout.

The white pieces, which have a slight advantage, don't see the black pieces counterattack, and temporarily give up the test.

Gu Changhuan watched quietly, without saying a word.

Soon, Gu Xuanzhan, who had completed the layout, launched an offensive; but Gu Changqing countered the moves, and even turned around to eat a few black pieces, and didn't seem to be at a disadvantage.

But as the saying goes, a bystander sees clearly, Gu Changhuan understands: although the black and white pieces are fighting back and forth on the chessboard now, the rhythm of the white pieces held by the ninth brother has been disrupted. If he can't seize the dominant position, he will probably lose in a while.

Sure enough, even if the black and white pieces are evenly matched, and even a stalemate has occurred, in the end, the black pieces held by Gu Xuanzhan are better and win Gu Changqing's seven pieces.

Gu Changhuan recalled that when he played chess with Gu Xuanzhan before, he had lost to his great grandfather at least once, and he couldn't help but sigh.

Gu Xuanzhan waved his hand, and the black and white chess pieces flew back into the box.

He looked at Gu Changqing, smiled and praised:

"Yes, among the young people of the Gu family, your chess skills are the best, even Changhuan can't be compared with you!"

Gu Changqing said realistically:

"It's still a long way from great grandfather."

Gu Xuanzhan smiled. He was delayed for too long in the late stage of foundation building. In the end, he even tempered his true essence several times. He really had nothing to do, so he could only drink tea and wine and think about playing chess. Naturally, his chess skills were comparable to those young people who were busy practicing all day.

Then he looked at Gu Changhuan again, smiling even more

"Although it is common for cultivators to change their appearance, it is not common for people like you to dress themselves up as an old man;

But did you go to the auction at Jinyintai? How did you get?"

Gu Changhuan then remembered that he had not taken off his disguise.

So, he cast a spell and then took off the disguise mask on his face.

Gu Changqing looked at him with some surprise, thinking: Seventeenth brother's disguise is really good. If I ask for it, it will be much more convenient for me to travel in the future.

Gu Changhuan took off his disguise and said:

"Today I went to Jinyintai to participate in the auction and got a lot of gains.

But the most important thing is that I opened my eyes. Many things at the auction came from Lanzhou or Hengzhou, and there are not many specialties in Qingzhou."

Gu Xuanzhan and Gu Changqing both nodded to show their understanding.

However, Gu Xuanzhan did not ask what Gu Changhuan had bought, but asked:

"Have you got anything important to deal with these days?"

Gu Changhuan thought about it, and it seemed that the only task at hand was to study the formula of Xianyuan Pill, but it was not easy to formulate a new pill formula, and he would definitely not be able to complete it in a short time, so for now, he really had nothing to deal with, so Gu Changhuan shook his head.

Seeing him shaking his head, Gu Xuanzhan said:

"In that case, you, Changqing, and Shi Ning should go out and socialize with me.

You have also advanced to the Purple Mansion, and it is time to get to know some cultivators."

Gu Changhuan and Gu Changqing naturally nodded in agreement.

Gu Xuanzhan has met many Qingzhou family cultivators these days. The Gu family is gradually becoming stronger. If he can get along well with these people, it will be much easier to do business and exchange what he needs in the future.

The so-called "connections" are just like this.

Gu Changhuan has achieved the Purple Palace at a young age and is also a third-rank alchemist; Gu Changqing has comprehended the sword intent and has an extraordinary talent in swordsmanship, so those family cultivators will certainly be very willing to make friends with them.

At this time, Gu Changqing suddenly remembered that he had saved the brother and sister of the Mu family from Shuangling Mountain at the border of Qingzhou, so he told them about it.

After listening to Gu Changqing's words, Gu Xuanzhan smiled and clapped his hands and said:

"This is a coincidence. It is said that the people of the Mu family will also be present tomorrow, but I don't know whether the brother and sister you mentioned will be brought by their elders. If one of them is present, it will be beneficial for us to make friends with the Yun family."

It's not that they are asking for a favor, but they just want to make friends with the Mu family.

After that, the three of them chatted for a few more words, mainly Gu Xuanzhan introduced the identities, backgrounds, and life experiences of some of the cultivators he had made friends with these days.

After talking about it in general, Gu Xuanzhan waved and let them go back to rest.

After Gu Changhuan returned to his house, he opened the ban and entered the Xuantian Tower.

He planted the thousand-year-old banyan and Gaigu Lingteng he got today in the corner of the first floor of the Xuantian Tower.

Although these two things are still young plants, they are already ten feet tall.

Then Gu Changhuan harvested some spiritual herbs and sowed spiritual rice.

After doing all this, Gu Changhuan looked at the somewhat messy first floor of Xuantian Tower and thought:

It seems that after returning to the family, it is time to clean up the spiritual objects in the Xuantian Tower.

There are some first- and second-level spiritual objects that he can't use at all now, so it's better to exchange them for the family, which can also help.

Then he checked the cultivation of the two spiritual pets, Mo Lin and Qing Tu. The cultivation of these two spiritual pets has reached the second-level upper grade, but if they want to advance to the third level, they still need to accumulate.

If you want them to advance faster, you can only rely on external forces.

I heard that the Mu family is good at refining spiritual beast pills, and the ninth brother also said that their family's spiritual beast pills are indeed effective.

It would be great if I could get a few bottles of pills that can assist spiritual beasts in cultivation from the Mu family tomorrow.

Gu Changhuan thought so.
