The five drums were beaten, and a little crab blue was revealed in the sky. Gu Cheng supported his head with his hand, as if he was pretending to sleep.

After telling the absurd story, he thought about the reactions of the people around him, and smiled slightly. If it were her, she would definitely not agree to the Fang family's request, and most of them would have a seizure on the spot, causing Fang Jichen to find his teeth all over the ground, and that kind of scene was very painful.

He shook his head for a while, but unfortunately he couldn't do it, he was used to controlling his feelings. As he said to Shen Huan, he is a person who doesn't like to get out of control. What's more, in this absurd matter, in addition to the other party's family being full of contempt, the other party Jichen is angry and disdainful, after all, there is still a trace of sympathy and pity for the other party's Qiaozhen.

The gossip has always spread rapidly, and even when Gu Cheng is sitting at home, he can hear the ridicule and ridicule of the seven aunts and eight aunts outside the hospital. He didn't care, because he knew that as long as he opened the door and walked out, calmly and calmly through the gossip crowd, those voices would disappear in an instant.

Because it is a matter of conduct, and in this matter men are forever treated differently from women - far more magnanimous to men than to women.

So without Fang Jichen's reminder, he can also imagine how difficult Fang Qiaozhen's future days will be. In a few contacts, he could feel that Fang Qiaozhen was a gentle and sensitive person, delicate, sentimental and affectionate. If there were no mistakes in his life, Shen Huan, maybe he and Fang Qiaozhen would have become husband and wife now. He will cherish her, take care of her, and may even fall in love with her eventually.

But that's not going to happen. The other party Qiaozhen, he has never missed the moment, but after yesterday, he gradually has a lingering sense of guilt.

There are some things that men are destined to carry. It may not be about benevolence, or even morality, but it is enough to have pure heartfelt sympathy.

When Gu Cheng stepped into the Fang Mansion again, he appreciated people's enthusiasm for chasing after the wind and shadows in front of the door. A quarter of an hour ago, that Young Master Huang led the matchmaker to the door in person. A quarter of an hour later, the former fiancé came to the door. The Fang family really raised an excellent girl, and asked two men to break their heads and rob it, but I don't know how many families this girl can allow!

Fang Jichen felt a kind of relief at his arrival. Of course, he could think that Gu Cheng came to the door today, not to gossip, nor to ask about the guilt. This man is still a righteous man and a gentleman in his bones, and he is not wrong. Nowadays, gentlemen are rare, and because of their scarcity, it is even more difficult to integrate into the world.

For a moment, Fang Jichen thought sadly, this was not the fault of the gentleman, but the reason why there were too many villains. But villains are more suitable for the rules of survival, and they will live like a fish in water in troubled times, like themselves. After today, it may be a smooth road to prosperity.

The young master of the Huang family has a single name, a single name, a person is like a name, scorching like the rising sun, capable and sharp. He showed undisguised indignation and contempt for Gu Chengbiao, and his young face was arrogant, almost facing this former or current rival with his nostrils.

The flower hall was full of people, except for Fang Qiaozhen, all the people of the Fang family were present. That matchmaker must have been assigned by Mrs. Huang to supervise Huang Xu not to act radically, and on the other hand, to listen to the right and wrong of the Fang family and Gu Cheng.

As soon as he entered the door, Gu Cheng saw several young soldiers standing in the courtyard, although they were wearing civilian clothes, they could also imagine that they should be people from the Governor's Mansion of the Chinese Army. He laughed in his heart, he was once again put on the Longtan tiger's den. However, there is no need to say much, he was concise and to the valor, and explained to the Fang family members loudly: He proposed the withdrawal first, because he had a heart, so he could not fulfill the contract. As for Miss Fang's self-injury, she was really young and vigorous, and she couldn't think about it for a while. They had never interacted before, only met once on the street. Of course, Miss Fang will not have any feelings for herself because of one-sided relationship.

With all that said, he didn't have to stay longer, he bowed to the Fang family, and then left.

Before he turned around, that Huang Xu had already taken the lead, "Since you admit it, you are ignoring the orders of your parents and the words of the matchmaker." In other words, it is disregarding morality and morality, and is not filial piety. I can't complain that Miss Fang would be so hateful, and it is really shameful to promise you such a person! ”

Laughing contemptuously, he shook his head and said, "It's a pity that the people who should really be ashamed are not ashamed at all. You almost killed Miss Fang, and now you want to get away with a few understatements? ”

Gu Cheng didn't come to quarrel, not to mention that he didn't feel anything about Huang Xu, "If Your Excellency can't see it, you can go to the imperial court to participate in it." At that time, I will have nothing to say whether I will be robbed of my fame or condemned again. He lightly swept the people of the Fang family sitting in the hall, "As for the apology, I have already said it, and I can't do anything else, so I won't bother your mansion anymore." ”

The matchmaker suddenly said at this time, "Master Gu stayed, listen to the meaning of what you said just now, you haven't been involved with Miss Fang before, you two should be innocent?" That being said, Miss Fang did not threaten with her life and asked you to make another marriage contract. I wonder if my understanding is wrong? ”

Inexplicably feeling a little tired, Gu Cheng nodded. The matchmaker gradually showed a hint of joy, and his gaze at Mrs. Fang gradually softened.

At this point, it should be regarded as a complete merit, and finally a troublesome matter has been over.

Huang Xu, who was partial to his lover, was bent on fighting for his lover, and wanted to show a handful in front of Taishui in the future, and then brought out a bad breath of being beaten by Lao Tzu, slapped the case, and shouted, "Stop, since you are here, there should be a saying today, in front of the parents and grandparents, you dare to do such an arrogant attitude, and those who don't know think that you are the victim of suffering." I don't care how you apologized in the past, today in front of me, I am bound to let you apologize to others. ”

Gu Cheng was overwhelmed, "Excuse me, who is Your Excellency from the Fang Mansion?" ”

Huang Xu was stunned, frowning dissatisfied, "Who do you care about me?" Even if the road is uneven, you can also take care of this idle matter. ”

Maybe it's because Huang Xu likes Fang Qiaozhen too much, Gu Chengping eased his breath and didn't entangle, "I'll not accompany you, I'll leave first." ”

As soon as he raised his feet and left, the person behind him had already stood up. The person who was full of enthusiasm and indignation threw a punch with all his strength, but it hit a cold and hard wall directly, and it bounced to the pain. How can Huang Xu not be angry, and lose a look, the people in the courtyard are already in a circle.

It seems that it is to make it difficult for Gu Cheng to get out of this door.

Gu Cheng sighed in his heart, he had already expected such a result in advance when he broke into the Fang Mansion alone. What should come will always come, and the fight that should be fought will always be fought. Fortunately, he glanced at the figures, legs, and feet of the soldiers, and he was not stunned. walked to the scene and pinned the placket of his shirt to his waist first.

Huang Xu and the people he brought obviously didn't expect that Gu Cheng turned out to be a practitioner. A set of boxing techniques and a body of martial arts, all of which are the true inheritance of the master who was born in the imperial guard, plus the southern kung fu that he has learned with Shen Huan in his spare time in recent years, it is more than enough to deal with the soldiers of the military governor's mansion.

The people who overthrew the courtyard shared the time to go to half a pillar of incense. Gu Cheng didn't look back, but only said, "Offended." ”

Huang Xu's face became more and more unbearable, he looked at the Fang brothers with straight eyebrows, and saw that no one stepped forward, so he simply lifted the hem of his clothes and jumped into the courtyard by himself.

It seems that this entanglement is not over for a while, Gu Cheng looked at the anger in Huang Xu's eyebrows, and understood that this fight could not be avoided after all. Unexpectedly, after a few rounds, Huang Xu is not a vegetarian.

The other party is also considered to be a general, and he has some foundation in martial arts. However, because he is used to being pampered, he has no chance to show it on weekdays, and he lacks experience in dealing with the enemy. After more than a dozen moves, it gradually showed a decline.

Gu Cheng was still willing to leave room for others in the end, and when he saw that he was about to leave, he simply shook his fist, lightened his body, and jumped out of the opponent's offensive.

"I am here today to clarify and apologize. Two things are over, I don't want to stay longer. Please make it convenient, let's get together and disperse. ”

Unexpectedly, the more modest and indifferent he was, the more the other party felt provoked. Thinking that he brought a helper and went into battle in person, he still failed to win, and the words he just said became a joke? The young man has a high spirit, he has never been subjected to any hardship, and his heart is moving, and his blood is surging. Without thinking about it, he pulled out the long sword at his waist with a swipe on the ground. As soon as he reached out, he had already stabbed Gu Cheng in the chest.

The boundaries of the capital have always been different from other places, and there are rules for private martial arts competitions and fights. Regardless of whether it is an official gentry or a commoner, as long as no one is killed, the government will not ask about it. However, everyone is also cautious because of this, and they will not show their blades at will. If you light up the guy, it will be equivalent to completely tearing your face.

Whether it hurts or not is a later story, just this one move, the beams of both sides have already been concluded.

Gu Cheng didn't take the offensive, just blindly avoided it. stared at Huang Xu, just waiting for him to reveal his flaws, so that he could get out of trouble as soon as possible.

The two of them were fighting in the middle of the fight, and they didn't want such a big movement in the front yard, which had already alarmed Fang Qiaozhen, who had no idea behind them. She stepped out of the moon cave and turned to the verandah. As soon as he raised his eyes, he saw Gu Cheng and a tall man in brocade fighting together. The sword in the brocade-clothed man's hand was cold, and he slashed at Gu Cheng horizontally and vertically, as if every blow would put him to death.

She was so frightened that she flew out of the sky, but her mouth was not ambiguous, and she screamed in surprise.

Whether it was the two people who were fighting, or the people in the hall who were nervously watching, they couldn't help but stop their movements and turned to look at her.

The Fang family was a little panicked, and Mrs. Fang hurriedly signaled to the grandmother beside her to quickly help the person back to the room.

Others are still at the moment, and Du Huang Xu is full of excitement again. The beautiful woman was in front, her face full of sadness, and her eyebrows were full of melancholy, which was exactly what he was haunted by.

Should her nervousness be for herself? So in front of his lover, of course, he can't allow himself to lose, this fight is bound to win.

His mind was like electricity, and before Gu Cheng could come back to his senses, he raised his hand and slashed Gu Cheng's left arm with a blade.

This blow finally made him hit. Although Gu Cheng reacted and hurriedly retreated, a deep cut was still made by the sword blade on his left arm.

The blood was dripping down, and soon the sleeves were dyed red, and before Fang Qiaozhen could cry out, she was short and fainted in the girl's arms.

I just played a beautiful hand, but the beauty hasn't taken care of it yet. Huang Xu was undeflated, looked at Gu Cheng who was covering the injury with his hand, and raised his chin, "You lost, you should go and make amends to the second elder of the Fang family." ”

Gu Cheng endured the pain and sneered in his heart, "When will you sneak attack, can you say it so openly?" As the words fell, an arrow stepped forward, and with a flip of his right hand, he blocked Huang Xu's wrist. The other party was touched by him, and naturally gave birth to resistance. He used the method of borrowing strength that Shen Huan taught him, and sent it away, and Huang Xu's arm was bounced away by him. He grabbed the sword that had wounded him. Then it thumped and threw it into the ground.

It's a great shame, but fortunately, Fang Qiaozhen has never seen it in person! Huang Xu was furious, and in a fit of rage, he lost his mind completely, and actually took out a dagger from his arms. In addition to the sheath, it was immediately slashed towards Gu Cheng's wrist.

This kind of fighting method seems to be like swearing not to give up without someone's life. The Fang brothers glanced at each other, and finally couldn't hold back. Uncle Fang hurriedly ran to the side of the two of them, and shouted repeatedly, "Stop, uncle, you stop first, if you continue to fight like this, something will happen." ”

Huang Xu was too busy to take care of himself, his eyes were full of anger, and he reprimanded, "I am venting evil anger for your family, you are good, not to mention helpers, but to stop me." Your family is timid and afraid, and allows others to be bullied. Hmph, Miss Fang has really been a brother like you for eight lifetimes......"

The meaning of the obedient words is still not to ask Gu Cheng to leave safely. Uncle Fang is a decisive person, seeing that it doesn't matter if he offends Gu Cheng, Huang Xu's face must be saved. If it really goes on like this, Huang Xu won't be able to take advantage, and I don't know what he will be angry like when he waits.

Thinking about it is only a matter of moments. The uncle of the Fang family turned his heart sideways, looked at the long sword that fell to the ground, and bent down to pick it up. Seeing the right time, when Gu Cheng turned sideways towards him, the tip of the sword was sent forward.

The sharp sword blade sneered and stabbed into Gu Cheng's right abdomen. Uncle Fang was also afraid of accidents, so he didn't dare to exert his strength, but Rao was like this, and the sword blade was still pierced by more than an inch.

This time, the war has really stopped. Gu Chengwei stumbled and took two steps back. The perpetrator threw down his sword and made a trembling and panicked posture.

"Third Master...... I, I'm just persuading, I don't know if you turn around at this moment, this, this is a mistake, I really didn't mean to......"

Fang Jichen took three steps and made two steps, and ran to Gu Cheng's side. While helping him, he only whispered in his ear, "Let's go, we're helping you get out of trouble." ”

Gu Cheng gritted his teeth and endured the pain, looking at the person in front of him. Suddenly he grabbed him by the collar and almost knocked him over.

The other party was panicked and his face was full of fear. is so young, I hate myself for being plotted by them like this.

He pulled Fang Jichen, stared at him word by word, and said, "What I owe your sister will be repaid today." Don't come to me again in the future, otherwise, I will definitely take revenge on this sword. ”

With that, he slammed it hard and pushed Fang Jichen out fiercely.

Gu Cheng's body was bleeding, and his arms were red, which looked quite terrifying. At this time, he looked around coldly, and finally no one dared to approach again.

"Third master, you ...... We're going to send you back, and you've got to see the wounds......"

Gu Cheng snorted, "No need, you can't die." ”

He turned around and jumped out of the gate, leaving the group of untrustworthy and unrighteous people behind him far away.

Pulled out a sweat towel to plug the wound, and in a short time, the blood had already stained the white silk red. Fortunately, the road was not far, and he ignored the surprise of passers-by, and tried his best to walk steadily, until he turned into the entrance of his own alley, and then stumbled.

The moment he pushed the door open, his whole body went limp, and he walked back to the room, turned over and sat on the bed. After panting for a long time, he pulled out his clean clothes and tore them into strips to bandage his wounds.

The blood on his arm had long since dried up, and the wound was not too painful, but the sword wound on his right abdomen was painful. Wrapped, the person was already drenched in sweat, he couldn't stand it, and lay down on the bed.

This point of injury can't kill anyone, he knows in his heart, naturally he won't be afraid, but he has to rely on himself to get through it after all. His consciousness gradually blurred, and he was in a daze, thinking a little dazed that since Shen Huan left, he hadn't even shed a single tear.

This is the result of his usual self-control, but in this way, he can't help but live up to her affection for him.

Then use this blood to pay back, as a compensation for her, as a punishment for himself, to punish him for abandoning her, and leaving her alone in the world.
