Gu Zhirong was a little embarrassed, to be honest, this book was not what she wanted to read, it was what the old monk of Mingkong wanted to read, could she say that she also had a little bit of the old monk's light?

"This ......" Gu Zhirong laughed awkwardly, "I want to borrow it first and study it carefully." ”

Qingwan was very refreshing, and waved his hand and said: "Then you can take it back, anyway, no one wants to read this book, you can remember it, it is its fate with you, you can take it back, you can read it for as long as you want, and return it to the library after reading." ”

Gu Zhirong originally thought that he would agree on a return time, but he didn't expect the old palace maid to be so generous, and hurriedly thanked her, and said that he would protect this ancient work and so on, before he said goodbye.

Qing Wan looked at the hourglass, thinking that the time was almost up, and remembered the dinner party in her heart, so she locked the library early and went to do her own business.

Gu Zhirong held the book in his arms and was very happy. She hadn't imagined that the book would be so easily borrowed, and in vain she had imagined hundreds of possibilities last night, the last of which was that if the people in the library refused to lend her the book, she would steal it out when no one was looking!

She walked happily, but she didn't expect that in a dense bamboo forest, a pair of eyes were staring at her tightly, revealing an evil and greedy gaze.

When she walked about twenty meters, Gu Zhirong vaguely felt that something was wrong, as if someone was following her. She felt "Gedden" in her heart, stopped suddenly, and quickly turned to look back.

The back is empty. Don't talk about human figures, there is not even a ghost. She let out a soft sigh and turned around. Suddenly. A hand stretched out in front of her, grabbed her neck tightly, and dragged it towards the dense bamboo forest on the side.

Gu Zhirong was so shocked that his soul was almost gone, and he wanted to call for help, but his neck was strangled by someone, and it was difficult to even breathe, and it didn't take a while. His face turned purple.

Although he was in danger, Gu Zhirong understood that this person was obviously prepared. In order to avoid calling for help himself, he grabbed her neck as soon as he made a move. And dragged towards Lin Zhu, proving that this person had already investigated this place and chose this crime location.

Think about it too. It's approaching evening. This place is becoming more and more sparsely populated, and there is a large bamboo forest as a cover, which is difficult for ordinary people to find, so it can be said that this is the most hidden crime scene.

Although his neck was tightly strangled, Gu Zhirong's consciousness was still quite clear. She remembered that when she was in college, whenever she talked about personal safety, the counselor would always teach them some self-defense skills. Some anti-wolf tricks. Although it has been so many years, there is a cruel trick that she still remembers very clearly.

She tried to keep herself awake a little more. Then he opened his mouth and bit down the arm that was holding her neck. The man was defenseless, or he didn't expect Gu Zhirong to make this move, and immediately in pain, the arm that was holding her neck loosened.

Gu Zhirong would not let go of this rare opportunity, she took a big breath, then looked at the person's stall and kicked it hard.

A scream was heard abruptly, and the man fell to the ground, his hands on his stall, his face twisted, and he rolled around in pain.

Gu Zhirong quickly glanced at the man, only to see that this person had a beard, a fat face, thick eyebrows, and a dark purple silk Luo wide-sleeved robe on his body, a light-colored large flower on the neckline on his chest, and a large colored flower on his arms and sleeves, with a white jade belt......

There was a dense sound of footsteps, presumably caused by this person's screams, Gu Zhirong looked up, and saw that not far ahead, several big men of the shape of a man poured out of nowhere, all in black clothes and black pants, masked with black cloth, and carrying a bright big knife in his hand, running towards her.

Gu Zhirong was stunned, her heart almost jumped out of her chest, could it be that these people were the legendary killers? She never thought that in the heavily guarded palace, in broad daylight, these people would be so bold and blatantly want to kill people and oversell goods.

"Miss, where are you?" With a call, a figure of Cai Qing appeared on the path between the bamboo forests not far away, presumably rushing over when he heard the movement here. When she saw that her young lady was safe and sound, she couldn't help but cry out happily again, "Miss!"

Gu Zhirong hurriedly said, "Cai Qing, run!" while running anxiously towards her, trying to pull her away. But it was too late, a big man in black rushed over, his hand raised and fell, and the blade with a bright cold light was inserted straight into Cai Qing's back, and Cai Qing only had time to say: "Miss, you run ...... quickly" and his body fell softly.

The man in black snorted coldly, pulled out the knife with a "brush", and Cai Qing fell straight to the ground, and the blood from the wound on his back spurted out like a fountain, splashing the cobblestone ground in front of him.

Gu Zhirong's eyes cracked, this is the maid ring that has accompanied her for many years, and it will be gone after a knife...... She only felt the anger burning in her chest, and she couldn't care about anything at this time, she pulled out the dagger hidden on her body, and was about to rush up to fight the man in black.

"Are you crazy?" someone yelled in her ear, and her body was restrained and she couldn't move. But at this time, Gu Zhirong couldn't care about this, her eyes were full of Cai Qing's tragic situation before she died: her eyes looked at her in a daze, blood overflowed from her mouth, and the ground under her body was a large pool of red blood......

"Fool, run quickly!" the man shouted, and then held her hostage, and the soles of his feet touched the ground, and in a leap of time, he was ten feet away.

That person's strength was very great, Gu Zhirong felt that he couldn't break free even with all his strength, he only felt as if he was about to fly, with the whirring wind in his ears, the scene in front of him passed quickly, and he soon arrived at the library pavilion.

The man didn't care how heavy the copper lock on the door of the library was, he slashed down the sword in his hand, only to hear a loud "dang" sound, sparks splashed everywhere, and the heavy copper lock couldn't withstand his sword, was split in half, and fell at the door.

"Get in. The man pushed Gu Zhirong in, then quickly plugged in the bolt and dragged her inside.

The huge library was gray because the doors and windows were closed, and the light from the outside could not penetrate. Gu Zhirong remembered that the bookcase here was placed according to the pattern of the Bagua Array, if outsiders could enter, they would definitely knock the bookcase to the ground, but this person seemed to be quite familiar with this place, pulling Gu Zhirong to turn left and right, and after a while, he arrived in front of a cabinet in the innermost room.

He opened the door of the cabinet and said to Gu Zhirong: "You go in first and hide for a while, and then you come out after those people are gone." I went out and led them away. ”

As soon as the words fell, Gu Zhirong saw the figures on the frosted glass window moving, he didn't expect these black-clothed people to be so familiar with the palace and come so quickly. She didn't think much about it, grabbed the man, and the two quickly dodged and hid in the cupboard.

The cupboard space is small, and they are next to each other. Gu Zhirong felt that in addition to the smell of blood, there was also a faint scent of ambergris in his nose, and he couldn't help but move.

At that moment, the window glass outside was smashed, and something watery was poured in, and the whole library was filled with a strong smell of spirits. (To be continued......)
