Chapter 554: Cao Fang's Death

However, only to hear a bang, Dongfang Rui suddenly took out a projectile from his sleeve and smashed it on the grass, and a pungent thick fog immediately rose.

"What about people? … Ahem......"

When the fog lifted, the man was no longer visible. Actually, let him escape? …

……

After the defeat of King Chaha, Emperor Xiao immediately dispatched troops to reinforce the banks of the Beijiang River. However, for some reason, the organs in the barracks were always inexplicably destroyed, and all kinds of gossip began to fly in the sky, all saying that the famous craftsman Cao Fang was just an exaggeration, a vulgar person who talked about soldiers on paper, and even the generals who were respectful to him before were much colder.

"No, it can't be... I've calculated it accurately..."

Cao Fang looked at another failed work in his hand and smashed it to the ground with hatred.

How could it be, could it be that someone in the army deliberately made things difficult for him? Every time I check the weapons I designed, once I put them in the warehouse, I will be inexplicably unusable the next day... The soldiers, in addition to blaming themselves and making them immediately take the weapons he designed and make them in batches, say they can't do it? …

If you can't do it, then who is the right to blame yourself? …

He actually said that the mechanism he designed was a pile of scrap metal... How can this group of mediocre people know how much effort they have spent...

Two days ago, the soldiers of Chen State raided again, for some reason they changed their weapons extremely quickly, the Yi army was overwhelmed, and suffered several defeats in succession, seeing that he was about to retreat ten miles, but he was not reconciled... It shouldn't be like this, as if those weapons of the Tatsu Kingdom were specially made to restrain their own mechanisms, but this speed ...... Cao Fang had to wonder if there were spies in the army? …

The dejected one lifted the curtain and walked outside the tent, which immediately attracted a lot of disdainful and angry eyes.

"Hmph, what a craftsman, there is a false appearance..."

"If it weren't for him, we wouldn't be hurt like this..."

"The last time I used his weapon, I almost killed the soldiers of Chenguo, maybe, he was a spy sent by Chenguo..."

Those undisguised rebukes came from his ears, Cao Fang gritted his teeth, closed his eyes deeply, turned around and strode away, disappearing outside the fence.

What, exactly, went wrong? Before he knew it, he had come to the depths of the woods, and at this time, a familiar figure not far away attracted his attention.

"Ling'er, let's go, let's go back, we caught a lot of fish today..."

Ling'er? …

Cao Fang immediately hid behind a big tree, he was not mistaken, Su Ling'er? … How could she be here, she should be with Gu Xunfang.

His eyes moved slightly, could it be that Gu Xunfang was here? …

An incredible possibility flashed through his mind, why the weapons he made were always destroyed every other day, and why Chen Guo could send weapons to restrain his mechanism in time, could it be ...... Is this Gu Xunfang's ghost? …

"Sister-in-law Xiang, can you make braised fish for my eldest brother at night?"

"Of course... Gu Gongzi really needs to make up for it. ā€

Gu Gongzi? … A trace of anger instantly rose in Cao Fang's heart, a good Gu Xunfang, it turned out that he was really here... This time, see where else he can escape... Secretly gritting his teeth, he immediately followed cautiously.

"Ling'er, when will your eldest brother come back today?" Smoke rose from the dining room, and the simple farmhouse was a happy scene.

In the woods not far away, Cao Fang looked at the thatched hut on the edge of the village in surprise, isn't this the village where there was a conflict with the soldiers? Just because they gave Emperor Xiao and Empress Xiao some favors many years ago, they got a promise that they would never be disturbed.

Gu Xunfang is hiding here, no wonder no one can find him...

"Ling'er, help me bring the fish ......"

"Good..."

The little girl happily picked up the bucket, not wanting to suddenly a pair of big hands grabbed her from behind and picked her up, "Ah......hh

"Ling'er? Sister-in-law Xiang was startled, and when she turned around, she saw a man tightly restraining the struggling little girl.

"You, who are you? ā€¦ā€

Cao Fang's face was gloomy, and he was still holding the short crossbow that Fang had just taken from the next room in his hand, looking at this workmanship, he knew that it was from Gu Xunfang's hand. "Tell Gu Xunfang to let him go to the woods in the north tonight, and don't take anyone with him, otherwise, don't blame me for being unfavorable to this little girl..."

"You, don't hurt Ling'er......"

"Remember, if he comes alone, this is my Cao Fang's personal grudge with him..."

……

In the forest, the little girl was crying, looking up at the man behind her with great grievance, "Big brother, why, why do you want to arrest Ling'er......"

Cao Fang's heart tightened, and he didn't want to hurt this child. But if she hadn't been caught, that cunning Gu Xunfang would not have appeared.

"As long as Gu Xunfang comes alone, I won't hurt you."

"Big brother, you, you are a good person, you have saved Ling'er's ...... before"

Looking at this teary-eyed little face, Cao Fang's heart was not a taste, he felt that he was a good person, but do good people really have good rewards? Why did he want him to meet that Gu Xunfang, if it weren't for that person, he wouldn't have ended up in today's field...

It is said that he is a genius in making mechanisms, why would he meet an opponent who he refuses to admit but never wins... No, this time, he's going to win...

As long as Gu Xunfang dies, no one can stand in his way...

"Don't move... If Gu Xunfang doesn't come, the eldest brother will also promise you that he will never hurt you..."

"No, no, the big brother will definitely come to save Ling'er......"

"You trust him so much?" Cao Fang didn't know what was good about that Gu Xunfang, and he didn't believe that such a selfish person would take care of a child who was not related by blood.

Su Linger pouted stubbornly, and that look seemed to say that she had never doubted it.

"Ling'er, look what I brought you..."Gu Xunfang happily carried a rabbit, who knew that when she pushed the door open, Sister-in-law Xiang pounced forward, "Gu Gongzi, it's not good, Ling'er was taken away..."

What the? …

In the forest to the north, the night was getting dark, Cao Fang stared in that direction for a long time, and Su Ling'er on the side was drowsy with hunger.

The corners of his mouth hooked up a sarcastic smile, "Take a good look at what kind of person your big brother is, he hasn't appeared until now, do you still believe him?" ā€

"No... Big brother will definitely come to save Ling'er..."

"You ......"

"Cao Fang..." An angry voice came from not far away, and I saw a staggering figure slowly approaching in the darkness.

Gu Xunfang took off the soldier's clothes on his body, panted violently and leaned over, "Ling'er, you, you're not injured, are you?" ā€¦ā€

"Big brother..."Su Ling'er was overjoyed, but she immediately cried out aggrieved, this appearance made Gu Xunfang think that Cao Fang had done something to her, "Despicable villain... You actually did it to a child..."

"Jokes... The thief shouts to catch the thief, if you want to be despicable, I can't compare to you..."Cao Fang smiled coldly, his eyes fell on Gu Xunfang's military boots that he hadn't had time to change, "Sure enough, it's you... Say, did you infiltrate the barracks and destroy the mechanical weapons I designed? ā€¦ā€

Gu Xunfang didn't have the slightest weakness, "If you're stupid, don't blame others for being too smart... I can see your little tricks at a glance, and with the flick of a finger, they can turn into scrap metal in no time..."

"You...... You scumbag... Don't dare to compete with me head-on, forget it, but actually play tricks..."

Gu Xunfang seemed to have heard a big joke, "When I was in Yiguo, I don't know who bribed the bandits to assassinate me?" Where can you go in the light? ā€¦ā€

Cao Fang took a deep breath and was speechless for a while.

"If it weren't for you...... I—I'm not going to be what I am now..."

"What? If your skills are not as good as others, you still want to blame others? What is the Cao family is the first craftsman family in the Yi Kingdom, I can't see Er'er..."Gu Xunfang's words pierced Cao Fang's heart, he suddenly lost his mind, and actually grabbed Su Ling'er next to him and tightly circled her neck, "If you don't want her to be hurt, come over..."

"You...... Let her go..."

"Hehe, I didn't expect that when you were a dignified gold medal craftsman and had fun helping others, Cao Mou seemed to be just a sanctimonious hypocritical villain... Do you really want to save Ling'er? Come here..."

"......" Gu Xunfang's eyes were a little hesitant, did the other party really want to hurt Ling'er?

"I said..." At this time, Cao Fang suddenly showed a dagger and put it on Ling'er's neck, and swiped it lightly, and immediately a blood mark gushed out.

"Woooooooooo......oo Big brother, it hurts ......"

"You... What do you want to do? Gu Xunfang was shocked, even he didn't know that he was so nervous when he saw Su Ling'er injured. Since when did this little girl really become his relative.

"Come here, one life for another..." A bow and crossbow designed by Gu Xunfang himself appeared in his hand, and a short arrow had been set up on it, slowly aiming at the man in front of him.

Gu Xunfang's eyes flashed, and Su Linger suddenly bit Cao Fang's shoulder, "Don't bully big brother." ā€

"Shhh...... You ......"

In a hurry, Cao Fang tightly strangled her neck, and after a while, the little face turned red because she couldn't breathe.

"Cao's patience is limited, if she doesn't come back, I'll kill her..."

Gu Xunfang frowned tightly, and then walked up slowly, "Okay, then you must let her go..."

The man immediately raised his hands and looked like he was at home. A burst of wild laughter came from Cao Fang's mouth, "Hahaha...... I didn't expect that Gu Xunfang, you also have a time to sacrifice yourself for others, but unfortunately, if you want to be a good person, it's too late. ā€

He lightly pulled the mechanism, only to hear a sound, the short arrow flew out instantly, but it was a cold neck, his smug smile instantly froze, and a touch of blood suddenly gushed out of his throat. "This ...... Forehead ......"

Gu Xunfang's eyes were filled with a bit of pity, "Now you know, you can't fight me, right?" I didn't even find out that it was a failure. I put the button on the top upside down, and as soon as you pull the button, the arrow will shoot out in the opposite direction. ā€

What the? There was a sharp pain in his throat, and the man clutched his blood-spurting neck, and fell to his knees, blood staining his sleeves red.

No...... He didn't believe it...... He...... Unwilling to ......

"Ling'er..."Gu Xunfang took Ling'er into her arms, and looked sympathetically at the seriously injured man who was suffocating. It wasn't until Cao Fang's body fell that Gu Xunfang sighed slowly, "Actually, I also think you are an opponent, but it's a pity that you are too conceited." ā€
