Chapter Forty-Four: Let's Talk About Fate Leads the Line

Before the time came, the moon was empty. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info Xu Dong is still wearing that flowing white robe, standing in an open-air attic, blowing the sea breeze and leaning on the railing in reverie, and his long hair moving slightly in the wind.

In his hand, he held a letter of urgent flying pigeon that he had received an hour ago, on which was Zhu Qi's explanation of Gu Wanyan's injury and the incident.

Xu Dong's eyes drifted into the distance without focus, and infinite guilt and worry surged in his heart at that time-it was his suggestion to Gu Mo to help Lord Xiao arrest Chu Lanyi, and he persuaded Gu Mo to do so. However, I really didn't expect that now because of this incident, Gu Wanyan, who was harmed, was seriously injured by Chu Lanyi.

Zhu Qi said in the letter that Gu Wanyan was stabbed in the heart, the wound was about half a foot long, and he is still in a coma.

Thinking of this, Xu Dong couldn't help frowning and squeezed the paper in his hand hard.

"Mr. Xu Dong?" someone came steadily in a soft voice and called him behind Xu Dong.

Xu Dong turned his head and smiled politely and politely: "Mr. Cui Heng." ”

Now Xu Dong is in a coastal town, called Fencheng. Before the war, Fencheng was a small country on an independent side, Fenguo. After Loulan unified the continent, the place was named Fencheng, and at the same time, the Loulan court sent officials to serve as the city lord. And Cui Dongtian, the king of the old Fen State, was demoted to a commoner, and their entire old royal family struggled for so many years, and now they are at most the nobles of the landlord class. And this Cui Heng is Cui Dongtian's cousin.

Cui Heng smiled heartily: "Call me Cui Heng in the future." ”

Xu Dong also smiled: "Brother Heng will call me Xu Dong in the future." ”

Cui Heng said: "Brother Xu Dong, I haven't rested so late, and I am quite affectionate to enjoy the scenery here alone." ”

Xu Dong pulled the corners of his mouth bitterly: "I won't tell you, now there is a little urgent matter in Dongcheng, I am afraid that I will go back early tomorrow morning." Cui Heng was embarrassed and said, "This ...... But ......"

"I know, but the final plan hasn't been decided yet. Xu Dong said apologetically, "I will find a time to come over and discuss with Brother Heng and Brother Dongtian again as soon as possible." ”

Cui Heng smiled open-mindedly: "It's okay - it's just that I'm afraid my brother will be a little anxious." ”

Xu Dong pursed his lips and said calmly: "If you want to hurry, you can't reach it, we have to go step by step according to the plan, and we can't be in a hurry." ”

Cui Heng nodded approvingly: "That makes sense, then Brother Xu Dong should go on the road early tomorrow morning, don't delay things." ”

=================

On the second day after Gu Wanyan was unconscious, the bleeding had finally stopped, but Zhu Qi said that because the injured part was too dangerous, he couldn't judge whether Gu Wanyan was out of danger.

And Gu Mo has been staying in Yunjitang for the past few days, and he has been accompanying her and taking care of her almost without leaving a single step. On this day, he couldn't live up to the repeated calls of the master at home, and went back to Gufu with a heart.

When they returned to Gu's Mansion, the old man and lady of the family were waiting for Gu Mo's arrival in the front hall, and the two elders had anxious expressions on their faces.

As soon as Madam saw Gu Mo, she got up from the chair and greeted her: "What about Wanyan, how is Wanyan?"

Gu Mo looked at his mother indifferently, then gently pushed away the hands stretched out by his wife, and said coldly in a voice that only his wife could hear: "It's all thanks to you, she is still unconscious." ”

As soon as these words came out, the lady was immediately stunned.

The involvement of Gu Wanyan and Chu Lanyi all started from Cheng Yong, and from Cheng Yong was from the people behind Cheng Yong. Gu Mo, who knew the whole truth at this moment, could no longer pretend to face Mrs. with a good face.

Gu Mo brushed his wife's shoulder and walked straight to the master, lowered his head and bowed his hand: "Dad." ”

As soon as the old man saw Gu Mo, he obviously noticed that his always cold face was a lot haggard, densely covered with scum. He was distressed for a while, and the words he wanted to say were swallowed back into his stomach at this moment, and he only asked, "How is Wanyan now?"

Gu Mo thought for a while and said, "I was stabbed in the chest, and I haven't woken up yet." ”

The old man's expression suddenly became serious: "What the hell is going on?!"

Gu Mo was silent, but the lady who had been stunned for a long time suddenly trembled a few times in her heart - she now knew that Gu Mo had understood everything, so ...... Will he say it!?

The lady was stiffening her body and holding her breath in a panic, but Gu Mo said lightly: "When you meet wild bandits on the road, it's all because your son is incompetent and didn't protect Wanyan, please forgive my father." ”

The old man sighed: "Hey, this is your wife, please forgive me for what to do, now the most important thing is to hope that she will get better soon-I want to go to Yunjitang to see her." ”

Gu Mo said: "Dad, Yun Jitang is busy for Wanyan now, Dad is waiting for news in the house - I believe she will be fine." ”

The old man thought for a moment, and then nodded in compromise: "Okay then." ”

Madame wiped the cold sweat from her forehead, and at the same time breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.

Gu Mo didn't say anything, and the old man said with a worried face: "Mo'er...... I know that Wanyan's matter is very important, but it is very inappropriate to put the matter on Luoshui's side like this. ”

Gu Mo couldn't help but open his mouth slightly when he heard this, he almost forgot about this stubble.

Gu Mo thought for a long time, and said lightly: "Let Da Ming go for me." ”

The old man knew that Gu Mo would say this, and immediately retorted: "But the nature of this matter is so serious, it is said that all the clerks over there have lost confidence, and the deficit of jewelry and property is also a large amount, if it is not done well, Luoshui's store is likely to close down." Are you sure that Da Ming can take charge on his own? Although he will take over your affairs and take your place sooner or later, I don't think he can handle this matter yet. ”

What the old man said is indeed true. When Gu Mo heard this, he couldn't help but look embarrassed, and he hesitated for a long time and couldn't make a decision.

Madame walked up to the old man Gu Mo, pretending to feel sorry for Gu Wanyan, and persuaded: "Wanyan is in such a situation now, you still let Gu Mo go?"

But Gu Mo didn't appreciate it, and he didn't even look at his wife, and his wife fell into embarrassment for a moment.

He's weighing.

Gu Mo has a scale in his heart, on one side is Gu Wanyan, and on the other side is the career that he has worked hard for since he was a teenager.

It can't be said which is more important, and at this moment, Gu Mo is unconditionally biased towards Gu Wanyan from the position of feelings. Gu Wanyan is not good, he must be reluctant to leave.

But......

Gu Mo raised his eyes and looked at the master. Because of these juniors, the master's health is getting worse and worse. Although he has roughly handed over Gu's jewelry to his sons, the burden on the old man's heart has not been lightened but is getting heavier and heavier.

Gu Mo hesitated and fell into a dilemma.

====================

Xu Dong returned to Dongcheng, and he didn't know when the drums started to beat.

When the others arrived at Yunji Hall, they didn't dare to delay for a moment and ran to the room where Gu Wanyan was.

When he pushed the door in, he saw Zhu Qi and two other doctors standing in front of Gu Wanyan's bed.

Zhu Qi heard the sound, and as soon as he turned around, he saw Xu Dong, and hurriedly walked over: "Hall master!"

The other two also turned around: "Hall Master!"

Xu Dong's expression was not very good, he nodded slightly, and then walked to Gu Wanyan's side softly and looked down at her.

I saw that Gu Wanyan's face on the bed was pale without a trace of blood, and her usually rosy lips had faded to their proper color. But thankfully, her chest still fluctuated slightly, and her long eyelashes seemed to flutter slightly from her closed eyes.

Xu Dong sat down, reached out and grabbed Gu Wanyan's wrist, and asked Zhu Qi while changing his pulse: "The bleeding has stopped?"

Zhu Qi replied, "Yes." ”

Xu Dong nodded and didn't say much, but quietly felt Gu Wanyan's pulse, and after a long time, he gently put down her wrist.

His face was a little gloomy.

This Chu Lanyi ...... It's too hard.

"It seems that the other party stabbed her and immediately pulled out the knife, which is why her situation is so bad - the average person should have died a long time ago, and she has persevered until now. Xu Dong said solemnly.

When Zhu Qi heard this, he couldn't help but speak cautiously: "Hall Master, I don't know if you have found out..... Miss Wanyan's physique is a little strange. ”

Xu Dong didn't say anything. How could he not know this question, as early as when Gu Wanyan was fifteen years old, he found out for the first time when he took her pulse.

"There seems to be a very powerful True Qi swimming in Miss Wanyan's body—no, it doesn't look like True Qi when it is true Qi. She doesn't seem to be a martial artist. It felt like it was this breath protecting her. ”

Xu Dong raised his head and looked at Zhu Qi calmly: "Everyone has a different physique-but this breath is getting weaker and weaker, and she won't last long." ”

Zhu Qi opened his mouth and closed it again.

The room had been filled with an air of tension and anxiety for days.

Xu Dong stared at Gu Wanyan, who was dying, and said to the other three people in the room: "Wait for another nine hours, if her condition does not improve like this after nine hours, use the Blood Condensation Pill." ”

Zhu Qi and the other two people glanced at each other, and hurriedly said, "Hall Master......!

Xu Dong waved his hand calmly: "Don't say anything, that's all." ”

Zhu Qi clenched his fists and stood there, silent. He knew Xu Dong, but who could stop him from what Xu Dong had decided?

Zhu Qi had always known that in Xu Dong's heart, this girl named Gu Wanyan had a very heavy weight - but he didn't expect that this weight would be so heavy.

But Zhu Qi still couldn't help but say: "But hall master, you should know how to use the Blood Rejuvenation Pill......

Xu Dong was stunned, half-turned his head, and said, "It's all this time, what is more important than life?"

As a doctor, Zhu Qi certainly agreed with Xu Dong's words, but ...... The scruples in this are really more than a little bit.

Xu Dong didn't wait for Zhu Qi to speak, looked around and asked again, "What about Gu Moren?"

Zhu Qi thought for a while and replied, "Gu Gongzi stayed here day and night two days ago, but yesterday it seemed that there was something important in the Gu Mansion that he needed to do, and Gu Gongzi went to Luoshui." ”

When Xu Dong heard this, his brows frowned tightly in dissatisfaction. There was a clear hint of displeasure and doubt on his face, but he didn't speak.

He turned his eyes to look at Gu Wanyan, who was lying silently, and promised firmly in his heart - don't worry, I won't let you have anything to do.
