Gujiazhai.

The night is hazy.

Zi Yan took advantage of the darkness and walked quickly on the mountain road.

Because Gu Feng was around, the patrolling Gu family guards bowed and stepped aside.

In the distance, a huge mansion can be seen standing in the darkness.

"That's where Tao Gaochang lives."

Gu Fengshang pointed to the courtyard road ahead.

"The area is quite large." Zi Yan said calmly.

Although the capacity of this mountain to produce food is limited, the area of ​​the mountain is very large. Using various trees in the mountain to build wooden buildings, it is easy to create residences everywhere.

Moreover, the Gu family has been operating this large mountain for hundreds of years and has accumulated enough buildings.

"There are more than 500 houses like this on the mountain. Most of them are now family property and not owned by individuals."

Ancient fashion introduced.

"who?"

As soon as Gu Fengshang finished speaking, four figures suddenly jumped out of the darkness.

These four people are all wearing leather armor with many metal pieces inlaid on the leather armor. This is a kind of armor unique to the indigenous people. Because of the limited metal materials and the rough mountain roads, it was deliberately designed to look like this.

.

The leader of these four people is a man in his twenties, who is very tall and holds a bow and arrow in his hand.

What mountain people are best at is bows and arrows, and bows and arrows are also the most effective weapons for hunting in the mountains.

Because of this, many years of life in the mountains have made the ethnic groups in the mountains become masters of archery, and each ethnic group has a highly skilled hunter.

Four bows and arrows pointed at Gu Feng Shang and Zi Yan.

From their attitudes, Zi Yan could tell that these people were definitely not from the Gu family.

Otherwise, the first moment you see the ancient fashion, you will take back the bow and arrow in your hand.

Zi Yan's figure moved like clouds and flowing water. She moved rapidly. After approaching one of them, she slapped that person's neck with her palm.

The man groaned and fell to the ground, his body twitched a few times and stopped moving.

The other three were shocked and immediately wanted to shoot out the bows and arrows in their hands.

But at this time, Ziyan moved towards another man.

The ancient style has also changed. As the leader of the clan, he usually practices the martial arts passed down by the ancient clan, so his attacks are only slightly slower than Zi Yan.

A few crisp sounds.

All four men were subdued.

The leading man gritted his teeth with dust on his face and said, "Damn it, do you know who you attacked?"

"who?"

Ancient Fashion approached with his hands behind his back, a cold look on his face.

This was the territory of his ancient family, and now this person from whom he didn't know where he came from was threatening him without shame.

"You, are you the ancient patriarch?"

At first, this person's eyes were higher than his head and he didn't pay attention to anything.

At this moment, he finally saw clearly the identity of the person standing in front of him.

It turns out that the one who knocked down the four of them was Gu Fengzhang.

"Yes, I am Gu Fengzhang, who are you? How dare you run wild on the hills of my Gu family?"

Gu Fengshang's face was gloomy. He was very unhappy and felt as if he had been slapped in the face.

You must know that this is one of the core places of the Gu family. Logically speaking, such an attack is unlikely to happen.

Now, not only did this happen, but it happened just when he was bringing distinguished guests from outside... This is very unreasonable.

"I met the ancient patriarch on Taolin Road."

The man, whose hands were tied behind his back and restrained on the ground, quickly revealed his identity.

If they don't reveal their identity now, if Gu Feng gets angry and pushes them out and kills them, will the clan leader really stand up for them then?

Others don't know, but they know how cold-blooded and cruel the Tao clan leader is.

"Are you the Tao tribe's guard?"

Ancient fashion frowned.

From the beginning, he thought that these people were probably Tao guards.

After all, if outsiders want to break through the siege and reach this core place, they cannot do so silently.

"Report to the ancient clan leader that your humble position is that of the Tao clan's guard..."

Tao Linlu said dejectedly: "Chief Gu, this is a misunderstanding. We thought there was an enemy invasion."

"Misunderstanding? This is not your decision."

Gu Fengfeng sneered.

We have already had a fight, and now we just write a simple sentence about the misunderstanding and ignore everything. How can it be such a good thing?

"Brother Gu!"

At this time, someone was shouting in the distance.

In ancient fashion, Zi Yan looked up and saw a group of people in front of them approaching with fire discounts.

The leader was a short and stocky man. Even though he was wearing a loose robe, the muscles in his arms were still clearly bulging.

The man hurriedly brought people closer. With a smile on his face, he cupped his hands and apologized: "Brother Gu, please spare these guards."

"Brother Tao, it's not that I don't give face, but if you were pointed at with a bow and arrow in your home, would you be okay with it?"

Gu Fengfeng asked rhetorically.

There is no rule without rules. If this is not punished, the prestige of his ancient custom will inevitably be damaged.

He is not embarrassed personally, but he is embarrassed on behalf of the entire Gu family, so this matter cannot be taken lightly and taken lightly.

"Brother Gu, what are you talking about?"

Tao Gaochang, the leader of the Tao tribe, has narrowed his eyes.

He put away the smile on his face.

But he didn't dare to act rashly now, because the guards of the Gu family had arrived not far away.

This is an elite hundred-man team. After sealing this place, no one nearby will be able to get through.

"According to the rules, you will be punished as you deserve."

Ancient fashion.

The Aboriginal Assembly also had a customary law.

Ancient fashion means doing things according to the agreed laws.

But according to the law, the punishment for people like Taolin Road is relatively severe.

"The previous laws have long been outdated. They were compiled by our ancestors. How can they be applied to today's laws? I think it is better to use the laws of Daqi. After all, we are still citizens of Daqi."

Tao Gaochang said calmly.

Tao Gaochang's move is quite clever.

If you must follow the laws of one place, it is definitely better to follow the laws of Daqi.

After all, the laws of Daqi were compiled later and are much more benevolent than the ancient laws of the indigenous people.

For example, if the crime committed by Tao Linlu and the others were punished according to ancient laws, it would be a punishment of three holes and nine knives. Such a punishment would definitely kill more than half of the person, because the meridians of the body would most likely be severed.

But according to Daqi law, you can spend a few years in prison or use money and food to atone for your sins.

"Forget it, let's do it according to the laws of Daqi. It just so happens that the imperial envoy is here, let the envoy make the decision."

The ancient custom immediately followed the good.

Originally, he didn't want to kill Tao Linlu and others, but now that there was a step to go down, he took advantage of it.

Tao Gaochang also breathed a sigh of relief.
