I Have Five Senior Brothers

Chapter 35: Went Out

Yun Ran was actually about the same age as Zhuo Tingqiu. She was nine years old this year. As the granddaughter who was doted on the most by the head of the Yun family, she naturally had her own outstanding qualities.

Among her peers, not only was Yun Ran the most talented, she was also the smartest. In terms of dealing with the world, she also had a keenness and intelligence that others did not have, which made her stand out from the rest.

This was the first time she did not go out with her elders, so she could not help but feel a little smug. Last night, she actually managed to shake off the guards and maids, which was why the thief had a chance to take advantage of her. Fortunately, she met a good person and was saved, otherwise, she did not dare to imagine what would be waiting for her in the future!

After she woke up and learned from Lian Qiu that Lian Qiu did not behave respectfully towards Gu Qingqing and the rest, she went to the butler of the city lord’s mansion early in the morning to ask about the courtyard where Gu Qingqing and the rest were in. She immediately came over to express her gratitude and apologize.

“Miss Yun, you are too kind. It was just a small favor.” Although Rong Ye was not satisfied with Lian Qiu’s attitude last night, he did not go so far as to make things difficult for Yun Ran. He walked out and said politely to Yun Ran.

“It was a small favor for young master Yu, but it was a huge favor for Yun Ran. I hope that benefactor will accept these gifts.” Yun Ran personally handed the storage bag that she had prepared to Rong Ye. Her attitude was very respectful.

“I’ll accept these things. This matter ends here. Miss Yun, please forget about this matter.” Rong Ye did not want to have too much to do with Yun Ran. He took the storage bag and said indifferently.

A trace of surprise flashed across Yun Ran’s eyes. No matter what, she was still the miss of the Yun family. Rong Ye and the others had saved her life, so they could definitely use this favor to repay her. However, from Rong Ye’s attitude, it seemed that he did not care about them at all. She thought of what Lian Qiu had said before… Rong Ye and the others were disciples of a reclusive sect, so she was a little more convinced. At the same time, she wanted to befriend Rong Ye and the others even more.

Just as Yun Ran was about to speak again, Nan Hua walked out from inside with Gu Qing in his arms.

“Little Five, it’s time to go.” Nan Hua only glanced at Yun Ran and the others and called out to Rong Ye. Then, he carried Gu Qingqing and continued walking out.

Rong Ye heard this and responded. He turned to look at Yun Ran and said, “Miss Yun, we are about to leave. Let this matter end here. I have accepted your gift. You don’t have to feel bad about it.”

After saying that, Rong Ye ignored Yun Ran’s reaction and walked past her to catch up with Nan Hua and the others.

Yun Ran did not think that Rong Ye and the others would be so straightforward. They actually wanted to leave immediately. She turned around and met Gu Qingqing’s gaze. She was stunned for a moment. Just like that, when she wanted to chase after Nan Hua and the others again, she could no longer catch up.

After Nan Hua and the others left Cloud Chasing City, they immediately summoned two cranes. Nan Hua brought Gu Qingqing and Rong Ye brought Jun Wu and left Cloud Chasing City together.

…

In the following days, Gu Qingqing and Jun Wu continued to study between the peaks. Gu Qingqing could recognize more and more words and she could also write quite a number of words. It was basically no problem for her to communicate with the others.

Previously, when Nan Hua sent Zhuo Tingqiu off, Zhuo Tingqiu wanted to become friends with Gu Qingqing, so he left a message jade slip for Nan Hua. After Nan Hua returned, he asked for Gu Qingqing’s opinion and gave the jade slip to her. Therefore, Zhuo Tingqiu and Gu Qingqing could chat on a daily basis, and they became much more familiar with each other.

As the successor of the Zhuo family, Zhuo Tingqiu’s family members were very strict with him. Last time, if it was not for his strong request, his family would not have let him leave home with only a few guards. After that, he met Gu Qingqing and went through a series of events… he had grown up quite a bit. When he returned home, he was praised by his family. Now, he was the mature and steady heir of the Zhuo family. When he looked at Gu Qingqing, he was like a normal ten-year-old child.

As Zhuo Tingqiu’s birthday approached, he sent an invitation to Gu Qingqing, inviting her to his home.

After receiving news from Zhuo Tingqiu, Gu Qingqing ran over to ask Wen Guiyun.

“The Zhuo family isn’t too bad. You can get to know them more. You’ve been on the mountain for a few months now, so you can take this opportunity to go out and play.” Wen Guiyun had always been more casual with his disciples’ education, gu Qingqing had been studying hard in the Hidden Spirit Mountain for the past few months, so it didn’t seem an issue for her to go out and relax.

Hearing that she could go out and play, Gu Qingqing was very happy. Most importantly, she was very curious about the scenes that Zhuo Tingqiu had described, and wanted to go and take a look.

“Your eldest senior brother is in closed-door cultivation to refine weapons. Second senior brother has had some enlightenment recently and is also in closed-door cultivation. Then let Nan Hua and the other two go with you and bring Jun Wu along.” Actually, Wen Guiyun wanted all five of his disciples to go. Unfortunately, since both Si Lin and Yue Zhao were in closed-door cultivation, he could only let Nan Hua and the other two accompany her.

Gu Qingqing did not have any objections and nodded upon hearing this.

Nan Hua and the other two were also very happy when they heard the news.

Previously, when Gu Qingqing was not around, they basically did not stay in Hidden Spirit Mountain and often did not see anyone. Now, for Gu Qingqing’s sake, they were all holed up in Hidden Spirit Mountain. It had been a long time since Nan Hua went to look for his female confidants. Mu Chen also did not go out to look for medicinal herbs. As for Rong Ye, he did not look for anyone to fight!

This time, they were able to accompany Gu Qingqing out, especially without Si Lin and Yue Zhao. The three of them were naturally happy.

The few of them did not pack anything. After helping Gu Qingqing pack up some food that could not be found outside, they went down the mountain.

Shangyang City, where the Zhuo family was located, was situated in the southern part of the Great Zhou dynasty. It was close to the sea and was a distance away from the mountains. This time, they did not ride on a crane. Instead, they rode on a horse carriage. It was an exclusive sponsorship from Nan Hua.

Pulling the carriage were six heavenly unicorn horses. These horses were level four demonic beasts, and they were taller than ordinary horses. Their entire bodies were white, and they even had a pair of white wings on their bodies. They could fly in the air. This was something that Nan Hua had specially searched for.

The body of the horse carriage did not look big from the outside. In fact, Nan Hua had folded the Space Array, and the space inside was even bigger than a room!

Other than that, the decoration of the carriage was also very luxurious.

The curtain used a rare thousand-year-old Cloud Satin, which was very expensive. The wood of the carriage was also ten-thousand-year-old Fragrant Cloud Wood. The fragrance of Fragrant Cloud Wood could help people focus their minds. It was very useful for cultivation. It was priceless in the market.

The body of the carriage was covered with a cushion, which was very soft. It was very comfortable for people to sit on.

This time, because he brought Gu Qingqing along, he even put a lot of snacks and notebooks in it. He was afraid that Gu Qingqing would be bored while they were on the road.

Ever since Gu Qingqing arrived at Hidden Spirit Mountain, she had the best food, food, and clothes. Her taste had also been spoiled, and her state of mind had become much calmer. She was not as surprised as she was at the beginning; now she was very calm.

Rong Ye was too impatient to sit in the carriage. He rode a heavenly unicorn horse while Nan Hua, Mu Chen, and Jun Wu accompanied Gu Qingqing in the carriage.

There were still a few days before Zhuo Tingqiu’s birthday, so Gu Qingqing and the others were not in a hurry. They walked and strolled along the way, as if they were out on an outing.

They could not make it to the next city in time that night, so they decided to sleep outdoors.
