Maoshan World: The young marshal starts!

Chapter 246 A Visit to Zhuge Kongping

The Zhuge family lived in Ping'an Town.

It's about 40 or 50 miles in a straight line from where Bai Rourou lives in seclusion.

This distance is not short for ordinary people, especially in this day and age when transportation is backward and ordinary people basically rely on their own two feet to travel, and even horse-drawn carriages are rare.

If an ordinary person wanted to get from Bai Rourou's place to Ping'an Town, it would probably take at least a day to get there. After all, it's a distance of forty or fifty miles as the crow flies, not to mention walking, and it involves crossing mountains and valleys all the way.

But for Guan Shaoqing now...

This distance is naturally no problem at all.

the next morning.

Guan Shaoqing walked out of the room feeling refreshed.

Bai Rourou was still fast asleep in her room and probably wouldn't wake up for a while. Last night's passionate night had exhausted her, and she was no match for Guan Shaoqing.
The only ones who can pose any threat or pressure to Guan Shaoqing right now are the three Yunluo sisters. After all, they are fox spirits, and fox spirits at the Great Demon realm at that, so their combat power is indeed extraordinary.

Wake up.

Guan Shaoqing did not linger any longer and headed directly to Ping'an Town.

Speaking of which, he has already stayed with Bai Rourou for several days now, and it's time for him to continue his efforts to vanquish demons and accumulate merit points.

Beauty is wonderful, but one should not become too intoxicated by it.

"I wonder if your aunt has received my message from the spirit bird?"

Pingan Town.

Zhuge family.

Zhuge Kongping rubbed his constantly twitching left eyelid.

If your left eye twitches, a villain is coming.

Zhuge Kongping was worried that the number one Mao in the world would come knocking on his door today, but given his current situation, he would definitely lose more often than he would win if he really faced the number one Mao.

"Dad, are you still worried about the First Uncle Mao coming to challenge you to a duel?"

Seeing this, Zhuge Xiaoming, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but ask.

"No, under normal circumstances, with my strength and cultivation, I naturally wouldn't be afraid of your First Uncle Mao. But now I'm plagued by bad luck because of that bronze-armored corpse. In this situation, I would definitely be unable to withstand your First Uncle Mao's attacks. If I lose, he will definitely laugh at me, and then my lifelong reputation will be truly ruined."

Zhuge Kongping said irritably that he and the number one Mao in the world had been fighting for many years and had basically become old enemies, and neither of them was willing to admit defeat to the other.

Moreover, Zhuge Kongping has never lost to the world's number one Mao Zedong over the years.

So if they lose this time, Zhuge Kongping will feel worse than if he were killed.

"Since Dad's bronze-armored corpse is so evil and brings bad luck to you, why don't you listen to Mom and just burn it?"

Upon hearing this, Zhuge Xiaohua, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but speak up.

"What do you know? This bronze-armored zombie is no ordinary bronze-armored zombie, but a mutated bronze-armored zombie. It can actually bring bad luck and disaster to the person who captures it. This is definitely a rare variety among zombies, with extremely high research and collection value. How can you burn it?"

"Now I just need to wait for your aunt to come and help me figure out a way to get rid of this bad luck."

Upon hearing this, Zhuge Kongping immediately spoke with righteous indignation.

"What if my aunt doesn't make it in time? Didn't you say that Uncle-Master Mao might arrive today?"

Zhuge Xiaohua continued.

"Don't worry about your dad. As the saying goes, if you don't listen to your wife, you'll suffer the consequences. You can't reason with him anyway, so he deserves to suffer."

At this moment, Wang Hui walked in and, after listening to the conversation between the father and daughter, glared at Zhuge Kongping with annoyance.

dong dong——!
dong dong——!
at this time.

Suddenly, a rhythmic knocking sounded outside the courtyard gate.

"Xiao Ming, go open the door."

Upon hearing this, Wang Hui looked at Zhuge Xiaoming and said.

Upon hearing the sound, Zhuge Xiaoming walked to the front door and opened it. He saw a handsome young man in a Zhongshan suit with a gentle and refined demeanor standing at the door with a large cart of gifts behind him.

"Junior Brother Xiaoming, it's been a long time."

The young man looked at Zhuge Xiaoming and immediately smiled.

"Senior Brother Guan, it's you!" Zhuge Xiaoming was overjoyed to see the young man clearly and quickly called out to those behind him.

"Mom, Dad, it's Senior Brother Guan, Senior Brother Guan is here."

The person who came was none other than Guan Shaoqing.

Upon hearing this, Wang Hui, Zhuge Kongping, and Zhuge Xiaohua, who were inside the room, were immediately energized.

"Could it be your grand-nephew who is now famous throughout the land and just came to the capital to take the life of the Qing Regent?"

Zhuge Kongping looked at Wang Hui and asked. Although Guangdong was thousands of miles away from Ping'an Town, Zhuge Kongping naturally knew about Guan Shaoqing's reputation.

"Well, it looks like it should be."

Wang Hui nodded happily upon hearing this, feeling very pleased with Guan Shaoqing's arrival.

"Then let's go quickly and greet the guests, so as not to be impolite."

Upon receiving confirmation from Wang Hui, Zhuge Kongping quickly added, "..."

The family of four then rushed to the door.

Upon seeing Wang Hui, Zhuge Kongping, and Zhuge Xiaohua arrive at the door, Guan Shaoqing immediately smiled and bowed.

"Greetings, Auntie, Junior Sister Xiaohua. This must be Uncle Zhuge. I have long heard of your great name. I am so glad to meet you today. Greetings, Uncle Zhuge. I have long admired your name."

Zhuge Kongping was greatly pleased upon hearing Guan Shaoqing's words.

After all, who doesn't like to hear nice things?

Moreover, the person who said these words was none other than Guan Shaoqing, who is now famous throughout the land.

"Haha, Shaoqing, you flatter me too much. If anyone should say that I have long admired your name, it should be my uncle. Now you are famous throughout the world. Mentioning you brings honor to your uncle, your aunt, your junior brothers and sisters."

Zhuge Kongping also burst into laughter.

"Shaoqing, stop praising your uncle, or he'll get all cocky."

Wang Hui also said with a smile.

"Young Master is speaking the truth. In the cultivation world of the North, how many people do not know the name of Martial Uncle?"

Guan Shaoqing continued with a smile, which pleased Zhuge Kongping greatly. He thought to himself that this junior apprentice was truly remarkable.

"I had long wanted to visit my aunt and uncle during my trip north, but I hadn't been able to come until now that things in the capital were settled. I've made a special trip to visit you today. It's my first time here, and I don't know what you like, so I just brought some small gifts. I hope you won't find them offensive."

Guan Shaoqing smiled and then ordered the brokers he had hired to help carry the gifts from the car into the house.

"My goodness, this is just a small gift! Nephew, you've emptied the store!"

Zhuge Kongping exclaimed in surprise.

"Shaoqing, you're too kind. There's no need to bring any gifts when visiting your aunt and uncle."

Wang Hui echoed, but she was very happy inside. After all, the gifts showed how much Guan Shaoqing valued them. Moreover, Guan Shaoqing was her junior disciple from Maoshan, and to her, he was like family. His visit was definitely mainly for her.

Given that Guan Shaoqing's visit was so important and he brought so many gifts, Wang Hui naturally felt honored and couldn't help but be happy.

"Senior brother, you've bought way too much."

Zhuge Xiaoming and Zhuge Xiaohua also said.

"It wasn't much, I just bought a little bit. Besides, it wouldn't be right for my senior brother to come empty-handed on his first visit."

"You silly child, you're not allowed to buy so much next time. Besides, what's wrong with coming to your aunt and uncle empty-handed?"

“That’s right, Shaoqing, please don’t be so formal in the future. When you come to your master’s and aunt’s place, just treat it like your own home. We’re all family, so there’s no need to be so polite.”

Upon hearing this, Wang Hui and Zhuge Kongping spoke in turn.

"Okay, I'll listen to my aunt and uncle."

Guan Shaoqing smiled and agreed upon hearing this.

Then, under the warm welcome of Wang Hui and Zhuge Kongping's family.

Guan Shaoqing followed them into the Zhuge family home.
