"Here." Gu Can shook his head with amusement and took out a large bag of food from his backpack.
"Our sister is really reliable. Don't just stand there, eat and drink something quickly, and chat while eating." Fatty Wang sat down on the ground.
Wu Xie spread his coat on the ground and asked Gu Can to sit down.
"What kind of treatment am I getting? I won't be polite." Gu Can smiled and sat down confidently.
"Consider me meddling in other people's business."
"Wrong, you are being ungrateful." Gu Can directly put a sandwich in his hand.
"Well, in your memory, you should not be a consultant of the research institute yet." Gu Can thought.
"That's right. Now the world is unified. There are no more countries, only nine states. The entire territory of China is now Huazhou. Although dynasties have changed, the historical heritage has never been cut off. Even remote towns have built cultural relics protection centers."
"What's going on with the Nine Gates?"
"The military officer, the actor, the immortal, the Yama, the wanderer, the smiling Buddha, the beauty, the arithmetic, the chess master, the upper three gates are officials, the middle three gates are thieves, and the lower three gates are merchants. It covers all aspects of life. No matter which road you take, you always have to pay homage to a place. Gradually, the term "Nine Gates" came into being."

"Pingsanmen is a private enterprise. It's large, well-organized, and disciplined. It provides training channels and specializes in fighting. Xiasanmen operates all the equipment, buying and selling, and naturally forms an industrial chain."
"Isn't that still related to tomb robbing?"
"This only targets tomb robbing. The Nine Gates today are not the Nine Gates of Changsha, but the Nine Gates of Huazhou. The Nine Gates of Huazhou, the Martial Arts Association of Qinzhou, the Literary Association of Songzhou, the Ministry of Rites of Xiazhou, the Lingyan Pavilion of Tangzhou, etc., are all the most powerful organizations in each state. The Nine Gates today are very powerful."
"Then you'll have to be looked after by the Third Master from now on."
"No problem!"
"What about the Wang family?" Looking at Wu Xie's smug look.
"This Wang family is truly bizarre. Their people aren't just in the Nine Gates of Huazhou; they're spread across almost the entire Nine Provinces. Huazhou, where we are, is the hometown of the First Emperor. Since when, rumors have spread that the First Emperor is not dead, that he is immortal. How can this not drive people crazy?"
