The three people outside the door, especially the third steward, couldn't believe that they were treated like this. Since he became the third steward, even though there were the chief steward and the second steward above him, he was respected wherever he went. So when he learned that the third elder was looking for someone to come to Gu Yao, he took the job first. In
his opinion, it was just a trip. What's wrong with the Tian family's territory? They were not going to attack the Tian family. Could the Tian family stop them from taking Gu Yao back? Don't you forget Gu Yao's last name?
Moreover, he thought that Gu Yao would be eager to follow him back after hearing this. People who have never gone out to make a living on their own, how could they survive without the Gu family? Otherwise, why were so many monks unwilling to go hunting outside the town, but instead racked their brains to become the guards of the Gu family? What was the reason? Every year, countless monks die in dangerous places outside the town and at the mouths of monsters.
"Third housekeeper, how about we break the door open!" The guard who came over suggested in a flattering way.
The third housekeeper gritted his teeth and said, "Okay! Break it for me! I don't believe that I can't invite Young Master Gu Yao back!" He said the last four words with gritted teeth. In the past, he never took this young master seriously. Gu Yao's life was worse than his own son. No matter whether it was the head of the Gu family or Gu Yao's biological father, they didn't take him seriously. Even if he accidentally hurt someone, who would take care of him?
If he couldn't invite the person back, he didn't know how others would laugh at him when he returned. The position of housekeeper was very lucrative, and there were countless people eyeing him and trying to pull him down.
"Yes, Third Steward, step back and watch us!"
Two guards stepped forward, drew their swords and chopped at the gate. With a "bang", the gate collapsed. The guards kicked the shaky door frame open and strode inside. The Third Steward followed behind them.
But once they entered the door, the scenery in front of them suddenly changed. The guards were shocked: "Where is this?"
"I know, this is a formation. Didn't people say that Young Master Gu Yao's men killed two monks with formations? Otherwise, how could Madam Fang be punished by the patriarch to confine herself to reflect on her mistakes for a year? Be careful! Young Master Gu Yao is such a good man, he actually used formations against his own family!" The third steward was thinking about how he would report Gu Yao to the third elder after returning home, so that Gu Yao would never get any good out of him. But at this moment, he shouted, "Young Master Gu Yao, I am following the orders of the third elder and the patriarch to invite Young Master Gu Yao back. Young Master Gu Yao, quickly close the formation and stay with us, and the patriarch can let bygones be bygones."
"Master Gu Yao, the master has dealt with the Fang family and Madam Fang for you. The Fang family was expelled, and Madam Fang was punished to confine herself to reflect on her mistakes for a year!" This means, Gu Yao, don't be too arrogant, otherwise how can you, a junior, rely on the master?
But no matter how the third housekeeper shouted, there was no response from outside the formation.
Chi Changye was the only one in the formation. He looked back at Gu Yao's room. After activating the formation, he couldn't detect the movement outside. He must be testing the alchemy furnace, so he didn't care about the outside. It was better this way, so that Gu Yao wouldn't be annoyed by seeing this kind of guy who relied on his power.
The three of them got no response and could only break through the formation, because they found that they could not find the original way and could not retreat. They did not believe that a brat who came from nowhere could still trap the guards and housekeeper of the Gu family, so the housekeeper also took out his magic weapon from the storage bag and waited for him.
Suddenly, a dense group of fire snakes came in front of them. One of the guards shouted: "Run!" and took the lead to run in the opposite direction. The third housekeeper and another guard had to follow.
However, they did not run far before the three of them found themselves trapped in a quagmire. They watched helplessly as the mud submerged their feet and dragged them down continuously. The housekeeper had to use a fireball talisman to throw it into the quagmire. The sound of the explosion startled the third housekeeper. This was not only caused by the fireball talisman.
"Oh no, what is this? Is this poison gas?" When the third butler saw the black smoke going into his body, he quickly slapped a defensive talisman on himself. He would never use it normally. Gu Yao had caused him so much loss, he would remember this account!
"Ah——" A guard rolled on the ground. This guard was not like the third butler who could use talismans at will. After all, a basic talisman cost one or two hundred silver coins, and a defensive talisman cost more than double that.
The third butler thought he would be fine after slapping the defensive talisman, but he watched helplessly as black spots appeared on his body and his strength gradually disappeared. His legs went limp and he fell to the ground. What kind of poison is this?
"Third Butler, save me, save me quickly!" A guard crawled to the Third Butler's feet, grabbed his robe and begged. The Third Butler was even more horrified when he saw his appearance clearly. There was hardly a piece of intact skin on the guard's body. When he looked around, they were actually already outside the door, and the door was still in a state of being destroyed by them.
"This is a warning for your disrespect! If you dare to take advantage of others' power next time, you won't have to go back! Get lost--" "
Hey, isn't this the third steward of the Gu Mansion? Why are the Gu family here again? Wasn't Young Master Gu Yao driven out by the Gu family? Why does he keep coming to our house?"
"Tsk, you don't know this, right? In the past, people thought Young Master Gu Yao was useless and even the servants didn't take him seriously. Now, just look at the looks of these three people and you will know that Young Master Gu Yao is no longer a soft persimmon that can be bullied at will."
"Well, I heard that this is all the credit of that Young Master Chi. After all, men can't go far with each other."
"That's what Young Master Gu Yao has to worry about. If men are unreliable as you said, then when Young Master Gu Yao returns, won't he still be treated the same as before?"
