Chapter 255: First Arrival in Kyoto
Nifeng smiled meaningfully and did not say much on the matter.
Gu Chan and Ding Sheng looked at each other and closed their mouths knowingly.
Obviously, Renfeng is unwilling to talk more about the Tianji Pavilion. Now that he is willing to reveal his true identity, he has already done his best.
Wanting to understand this, Gu Chan immediately changed the subject and said, "By the way, Master Yushi, I will enter Kyoto tomorrow. Can I go see my friend first?"
"Do you still have friends in Kyoto?" Renfeng asked curiously.
"He is my godfather's grandson, my good nephew Shen Yang." Gu Chan said with a smile.
It has been several months since Long Zhen recommended Shen Yang to study in Kyoto through a letter of recommendation, and she still doesn't know how Shen Yang is doing in Kyoto.
It just so happened that I was coming to Kyoto this time. I had a narrow escape anyway, so why not go and catch up with that handsome guy before that?
Renfeng nodded and said, "Yes, yes, but we have to have people from Tianji Pavilion go with you to watch you to prevent you from escaping."
"Hey! How dare I run away now! The lives of my grandfather and more than fifty people are in your hands! What will they do if I run away?" Gu Chan sighed helplessly.
"It's good that you know." Renfeng responded with satisfaction.
Then the three of them didn't say any more, but calmed down and continued eating.
After dinner, the three of them went back to their rooms to rest.
But that night, for some reason, Gu Chan slept very comfortably on the bed in the guest room of the inn, and she slept until dawn.
Early the next morning, when she got up, Renfeng and others were already having breakfast downstairs and waiting for her. She came down and had breakfast with them, and the team set off to leave the inn and rush to Kyoto.
At noon, the team arrived outside the tall east gate of Kyoto.
Gu Chan sat in the carriage and looked up through the window, and found that Kyoto was indeed unique. The city wall entering the city alone was more than twenty meters high, and the east city gate was even more tall. Under the city gate, he looked like a little figure in a shadow puppet show, looking quite small.
Ding Sheng was sitting next to him. Seeing Gu Chan looking at the city gate with a surprised look on his face, he couldn't help but sneer and said, "You're really ignorant. Why, this is your first time in Kyoto?"
"Hmph! For me, it can only be said that I will come back again." Gu Chan snorted and said disdainfully.
Her predecessor was a maid from a high-ranking official's family in Kyoto. She must have lived in a prosperous place like Kyoto before, but was later sent to the border.
If she didn't have the memory of the original owner, she wouldn't be as surprised as she is now.
Ding Sheng didn't know Gu Chan's specific situation, so he just asked with a puzzled look, "Have you been to Kyoto before?"
"It's none of your business, you fat man. If you keep talking nonsense, I'll beat you up." Gu Chan said fiercely.
Ding Sheng laughed twice and quickly closed his mouth.
While the two were talking, the soldiers guarding the city had already completed the inspection and released them, and the team, led by Yushi Renfeng, slowly entered the tall city gate of Kyoto.
As the motorcade entered Kyoto, Gu Chan sat in the carriage, grinning from ear to ear.
Compared to places like Zhongyuan City, Kyoto is obviously much more luxurious. Entering from the East City Gate is a huge main street, which is the kind of avenue that allows three carriages to drive side by side. In modern terms, this main street is actually Three lines of road.
As for both sides of the street, there are high-rise buildings everywhere. The lowest buildings are all four-story buildings. Small buildings like three-story buildings are not seen here at all. And the most important thing is that these buildings are very luxurious and majestic. Even the signboard hanging on the ground floor is made of gold.
The street is even more lively, with various stalls and shops, and all kinds of delicacies. There are a lot of people coming and going, all of them are wearing rich clothes. At first glance, they are not poor people. There are many people holding mysterious beasts in their hands. What do they look like? Tigers, big cats, wild wolves, etc. all treat mysterious beasts as pets. There are also those who set up stalls and perform arts, and all of them are powerful practitioners. Just by looking at the tricks they perform, you can see that their physical skills are not weak.
"Oh my god! It really deserves to be Kyoto. This level of luxury is indeed staggering in such ancient times!"
After watching it for a while, Gu Chan couldn't help but mutter in her heart.
Ding Sheng, on the other hand, was sitting in the carriage with a troubled expression and a sense of restlessness.
The motorcade drove forward soon and stopped outside a hotel called Fulai Inn.
The three of them got out of the car, and Renfeng said to Gu Chan, "You guys stay at this inn first. I have arranged a room for you in advance. I will go to Tianji Pavilion to report first, and I will come back to you tomorrow."
"Then Master Yushi, can I go out for a walk today?" Gu Chan asked.
"During the waiting period, you can move as you please without restricting your personal freedom." Renfeng said with a smile.
After saying that, he immediately called two of his men and ordered, "Each of you keep an eye on one, protect them at all times, and don't let them put their lives in any danger."
"Yes, sir." The two men said in unison.
Renfeng nodded with satisfaction, said no more, turned around, got on the carriage and left with the team.
The two underlings made an invitation gesture to Gu Chan and the other two, and then they led them into the inn and went straight to the second floor.
Soon the four of them arrived at a sky-shaped room at the end of the corridor on the second floor.
The man in charge of keeping an eye on Gu Chan said, "Shopkeeper Gu, this is the room we have arranged for you two. You can stay here temporarily while you wait."
"Okay, got it." Gu Chan said with a smile.
Ding Sheng had a stiff face and walked straight to the bed without saying a word, lay down on the bed and fell asleep.
Gu Chan asked, "You're already here, why don't you go out for a walk?"
"Unlike you, I am still in such a good mood to go shopping. You may not know when we will be exhausted. If you have time to go shopping, you might as well lie down and rest for a while." Ding Sheng said with a bitter face.
"Tch! It's boring. If you don't want to go shopping, I'll go and see my nephew." Gu Chan said angrily.
After saying that, she immediately left the house and walked downstairs.
The subordinate who was responsible for keeping an eye on her naturally followed her away, while the subordinate who was responsible for keeping an eye on Ding Sheng closed the door and sat quietly at the table to watch.
After Gu Chan came out of Fulai Inn, she started walking on the street.
Fortunately, she had some money with her when she was imprisoned, so now she doesn't have to worry about having money to buy things when she goes shopping.
No, after shopping for a long time, she took a handful of fragrant snacks in her hand and started eating. Seeing this, her subordinates could only shake their heads helplessly, thinking that children are really greedy and are far less mature than adults. !
"Hey! Where is the person?" But just as he was thinking this, he suddenly shouted and his whole body was stunned in place.
Just because Gu Chan, who was walking in front of him just now, disappeared when he turned his head.
