Chapter 657: Chapter 657: Hidden Weapons chanical Techniques
The dining room table was set with bowls and chopsticks at this point.
No matter what had happened, one still needed to fill their stomach.
Only with a full belly, could one then go about their business properly.
Today, Gu Tianfeng hadn’t gone to work.
Right now, he should be busy in the kitchen with his mother.
And this dining room, just around the corner, led to the large kitchen of Gu Garden.
Gu Qiaoqiao walked over and, sure enough, saw her parents quietly talking about sothing.
In fact, Gu Qiaoqiao was quite envious of her parents’ relationship.
After so many years, they had grown closer together.
It seed as if they were inseparable now.
In the past few days, Aunt Zhao Yuxiang hadn’t been at ho.
She had already retired, but apparently, there was a new policy that offered special treatnt to early workers like her from the fifth and seventh work divisions.
Which ant her pension was about to increase.
But she had to go back in person.
The bodyguard who accompanied Aunt back was from Gu Garden.
Aunt was expected to return in a few days.
Fortunately, she was out of town and avoided last night’s scare.
For Aunt, the happenings at the Gu Family were perhaps beyond her wildest dreams.
Gu Qiao carried the stir-fried dish to the dining room.
Then she saw Great Grandfather and Great Grandma walk over, their expressions calm.
But there was no sign of an argunt either.
Gu Qiaoqiao smiled wryly and suddenly rembered sothing…
Approaching Great Grandfather, she spoke up, “Great Grandfather, I rember you once said that our Gu Family had another strong suit, which was chanical techniques. Are there still any craftsn who do that now?”
Gu Qingfeng was startled, looking at the little girl beside him, he spoke gently, “There was a craftsman more than ten years ago, but then he left.”
“Didn’t he take on an apprentice?” Gu Qiaoqiao asked regretfully.
“He did take an apprentice, but you know, no one uses those things anymore, and then he switched to jade carving.”
“Oh, where is that apprentice now? Is he at our Jade Carving Workshop?”
“No, he went back to his hotown, he should be sowhere in Jiangnan now.” Gu Qingfeng then asked Gu Qiaoqiao, “Qiaoqiao, are you interested in learning chanical techniques?”
Gu Qiaoqiao nodded, “Mhm, I’m a bit interested.”
Gu Qingfeng frowned, “We did have a hidden weapon left over, but unfortunately, it got lost afterward.”
“What kind of hidden weapon was it?”
Gu Qiaoqiao asked curiously.
“A type of Torrential Pear Blossom Needles, also known as Stinger Needles, with a range of within one hundred ters.”
“Stinger Needles, like steel needles for hidden weapons?” Gu Qiaoqiao asked in surprise.
Gu Qingfeng nodded, “Yes, they are steel needles.”
Gu Qiaoqiao’s clear eyes shifted slightly, and she imdiately rembered Qin Yize ntioning to her that Wang Xiu died with a steel needle piercing his heart.
Lin Qinghuan hadn’t provided many details, she hadn’t said who killed Wang Xiu.
But now it seed that she must have silenced him.
Gu Qiaoqiao’s thoughts suddenly stirred.
She instantly thought of Gu Cheng.
Thinking of Gu Cheng naturally brought Alina to mind.
A bold idea ford in her head.
Gu Qiaoqiao asked Gu Qingfeng, “Great Grandfather, do you think it’s possible that the hidden weapon was stolen by Gu Cheng?”
The mont Gu Qingfeng thought of the incident where his son’s Jade Flute was stolen by Gu Cheng, his face darkened, his eyes filled with a sinister gleam as he gritted his teeth and said, “Maybe it’s that beast.”
But what use would that beast Gu Cheng have for that thing?
He wouldn’t know how to activate it.
However, Gu Qingfeng also knew that nothing was absolute in this world, and the switch for those Stinger Needles wasn’t that complicated to operate.
