Chapter 7: Exploring Xu Mansion at Night
Because there is no electric light installed, there is always a gloomy feeling in the lobby. This feeling, coupled with Mr. Gu's words, also makes Gu Sheng's heart full of gloom.
Mr. Gu's words reminded Gu Sheng: He lives in a chaotic world, a real chaotic world, and he has to follow the rules of the chaotic world, otherwise he will be crushed by this force.
If he had the strong body in his previous life, Gu Sheng might have been able to do a lot of things, but unfortunately he now inherited Gu Qingci's outfit, which is useless except for being good-looking.
You know, if you are in a prosperous era, being good-looking is an advantage; but this is an era when human life is worse than dogs in a chaotic era. What is the use of a big man looking good?
After returning to the room, Gu Qingci lay quietly on the bed, thinking about the future. Also, he could not always hide in the Gu family's body, which seemed tough but was not tough.
As for Xu Ruoqing, Gu Qingci felt it was necessary to apologize, because with the strength of the Gu family, he was far inferior to the Xu family, and the Gu family could not afford to offend the Xu family.
Even if Gu Qingci wants to go out secretly to the world, he must not implicate the Gu family. This is Gu Sheng’s principle of being a human being - he doesn’t want to be sorry to others, especially those who are good to him.
Gu Qingci thought it very clearly about how to apologize: he must find Xu Ruoqing himself, and then take a private place to apologize, it is normal for a man to bend and stretch.
So the question is, how can we find Xu Ruoqing? Gu Qingci thought about it and it seems that other places except Xu Mansion are not easy to find.
So, Gu Qingci made a bold plan: to visit Xu Mansion at night!
There are not many candidates to implement the plan, and he is the only one. After completing this, Gu Sheng will go and see the outside world.
To be more precise, he wants to experience this cruel world - he wants to survive.
It is said that it is better to die than to live, and Gu Sheng’s idea is the same. Since he has arrived in this era, he has to try his best to live. If you don’t say anything else, wouldn’t that guy Gu Qingci also say that he wants to live on his behalf? Gu Sheng is not so stupid that he wants to die.
...
It was night, and the stars in the sky were lit up, like scattered fireflies that decorated the entire night sky.
Luoyang City, which has already come to night, has already been closed, and even candlelight lanterns have been lit on the street to illuminate these roads. If people with the conditions have been able to raise dogs to prevent thieves from entering.
This was a backward era, and the surroundings were covered with darkness. Occasionally, one or two teams of Northwest Army and Luoyang police officers were running past the streets to patrol.
Communication is basically yelling, and public security is basically dependent on dogs.
No matter from any aspect, the word "backward" is revealed here.
Gu Qingci had already prepared a dress for night clothes. He went out to the street at noon and asked the tailor shop to make the custom-made products. He also gave half of the money to make the tailor-oh, I forgot to mention that this cloth shop is also owned by their Gu family.
If it weren't for this, with such backward productivity and production level in this era, how could it be done in one afternoon?
With the faint firelight, Gu Sheng looked at the familiar and unfamiliar face in the mirror, and with this handsome Ye Xingfu, he couldn't help but sigh slightly: "Damn, why didn't I have such a face in my previous life? If I really looked like this, I would go to the battlefield of Mao and Middle East to find a rich woman, and then be a novice... It's a pity that I don't have this life..."
Fortunately, there is no one around, otherwise others would have defined Gu Qingci as a person like "narcissist" and "slutty". But who knows that Gu Sheng lamented that he was born at the wrong time: he had no appearance when he had the conditions, and he had no conditions when he had the appearance.
After Gu Sheng changed into this night clothes, he did not go out immediately. He was waiting for an opportunity to change defenses between military and police.
As for the time when the military and police changed defenses, it was at two o'clock in the morning, which was the time that Gu Qingci had been exploring for a long time before summarizing.
If you want to ask Gu Qingci how he summarized the time for military and police to change defenses, he has to ask what he did tonight.
As a qualified and outrageous mercenary, Gu Qingci was unhappy in a very unfamiliar environment. So when he first arrived here, he would climb over the wall in the middle of the night in order to understand the current situation in Luoyang.
Luoyang is now the territory of the Northwest Army, so the military discipline is relatively strict. Especially when Marshal Feng wants to manage Henan as a core area, Luoyang, one of the important towns, is even more important.
So, after two o'clock in the morning, a flexible figure immediately flipped over the wall of Gu's mansion, saying that it looked like a monkey, is no exaggeration.
With his extraordinary acumen, Gu Qingci ran outside the Xu Mansion in no time.
Looking at the wall nearly three meters high in Xu's mansion, Gu Qingci secretly estimated: If it was himself in his previous life, it would not be difficult to climb over this wall, but the key is that what he inherited now is Gu Qingci's little face. Fortunately, after a period of exercise, otherwise he would not be able to get over it.
Gu Qingci glanced around sneakily, skillfully took a few steps back, then accelerated and quickly rushed up with the power of stepping on the wall.
This scene should have been very exciting, but now it is a bit awkward. Because Gu Qingci's body's foundation is really bad, although Gu Sheng's strengthening training for a period of time, he still seems to be a little weak, and he barely has to be able to get on the wall.
If Gu Sheng hadn't remembered his past life, the wall would have been unable to be turned up.
Gu Qingci hooked his hands hard, and his whole body was like a flexible monkey, and he immediately took the force to go up the wall.
Everything seemed so calm and easy, but only Gu Sheng knew that using this trick was already very unqualified.
The Xu Mansion under the night sky is too different from the daytime. Since the wattage of civilian electric lights in this era does not seem to be particularly high, the light emitted is also vague, and there is a mystery around it.
In this era, there are few families who can afford electric lights in China. It just so happens that powerful families like the Xu family with a tough backstage can afford it, and there are lights in the entire Xu family.
If it weren't for the Gaoguang Light Bulb, Gu Qingci would have discovered it.
Looking at everything around him, Gu Qingci muttered in his heart: Why is there no one in the Xu Mansion? Logically speaking, the status of the Xu Mansion in Luoyang City should not be like this! Didn’t it be filmed on TV? Aren’t there many soldiers with live ammunition in such powerful families?
With this doubt, Gu Qingci slowly took action. First of all, what he had to determine was his position.
