Long Moyan was not in the center of political power. He was just an idle Marquis, so he should not know …
So why was he so surprised now?
Although Gu Xijiu had doubts in her heart, she was anxious to find Di Fuyi. Hence, this doubt only flashed past her mind. She wanted to leave after bidding farewell to Long Moyan.
Long Moyan finally regained his senses. He took a step forward and blocked her way, "Xijiu, it's rare for us to meet here. Let's have a drink?"
It was indeed necessary for old friends to have a drink when they met in a foreign land. However, Gu Xijiu was not in the mood, so she waved her hand, "Sorry, I have something urgent to attend to. Let's meet again when we are free."
"Xijiu, wait, I have something to tell you. It's about Celestial Master Zuo." Long Moyan stopped Gu Xijiu in her tracks.
Gu Xijiu's heart skipped a beat. She turned around, "What about him?"
Long Moyan sighed, "This is not the place to talk. Let's find a place to talk?"
Gu Xijiu's eyes flickered. Before she could speak, Long Moyan continued, "Don't worry, it won't take up too much of your time. One hour is enough."
After all, Gu Xijiu had been imprisoned there for so long. She had not heard any news about Di Fuyi, so she did not know where to find him. Even if she wanted to go out, she would need to ask around. Since Long Moyan had news about him, she might as well listen to it.
It was only two hours, she could afford to delay it!
Hence, she nodded, "Alright!"
Long Moyan was relieved and led the way. "Let's go." He turned around and walked towards the mountain.
Gu Xijiu was surprised, "Where are you bringing me?"
"My home."
Gu Xijiu frowned, "You've settled here?"
Long Moyan smiled, "It's just that the scenery here is not bad, so I decided to stay here for a few days."
This Marquis had always been a carefree person. He liked to travel around the world and stay wherever he liked. Gu Xijiu had heard about his temper before, so she was not surprised.
…
Long Moyan's residence was a bamboo house.
It was built halfway up the mountain. Coincidentally, it was only three to four miles away from Gu Xijiu's Merit Temple.
They were surrounded by Lady Xiang's Bamboo Forest. When the mountain breeze blew, the bamboo leaves rustled and a dragon's roar could be heard.
There was a bamboo forest, a bamboo house, and a bamboo fence. There were some medicinal herbs planted inside the fence, and there were banana trees planted under the window. There were also a few farming tools placed against the wall.
Coupled with the winding mountain path in the distance, it was a very rural hermit style.
Long Moyan stood in front of the bamboo house in a green robe. He looked like a light ink landscape painting that was extremely harmonious.
"Xijiu, this is where I live. Do you like it?"
Gu Xijiu looked at him and then at the surroundings. She nodded and said, "It looks quite harmonious."
It was strange. When she was an assassin, she thought that the place where she lived in seclusion would be similar to this. When she had nothing to do, she even designed the style of the house where she lived in seclusion. It was similar to this place. Logically speaking, she should like this place very much.
But now that she was standing here, she felt nothing. He couldn't say that he liked it, but he didn't hate it either, so he casually said that it was a priceless product.
Long Moyan stared at her, "Is this the style that you like?"
Gu Xijiu raised her eyebrows and said half-jokingly, "Prince Long, this is your residence, not mine. It doesn't matter whether I like it or not." What did his house have to do with her?
