Chapter 201: The Wall
Thinking of this, hatred swelled in her heart, and her beautiful eyes turned red and glared at Xiao Gu.
Xiao Gu frowned slightly, but his eyes were clear and clean, without fear of dodging, "I didn't betray the Jinlan Society." As for my father, he was his high-ranking official, my mother and I didn't enjoy any blessings from him, if you have a grudge or a grudge, you might as well go to the red note, that is his precious daughter! ”
"Hongjian is also Hu Yan's daughter?"
Gong Yuchun was also shocked when he heard this, remembering that it was the eldest brother's subordinate, he was also surprised in his heart, and then he pursed his lips and smiled, "She is dead, don't you know what to do?" ”
"What?"
Xiao Gu only felt a shock in her heart, and suddenly remembered the nightmare last night - the red note was covered with blood and wounds, standing in a pool of blood miserably, moaning and shouting for her life-her heart was blocked for a while, and she only felt a heavy depression and depression, and it seemed that a blade fluttered across the tip of her heart, there was no bleeding, but it was a faint pain.
With the red note pinching the tip to be strong and unable to see the situation clearly, the temperament of acting nonsense, coupled with the sneaky conspiracy between her and Jingyu, Xiao Gu also knew in her heart that sooner or later she would fold herself into it - she and the two sisters of the red note, although they are blood relatives, have never been close to each other, and they don't look down on each other's temperament and personality. However, when I first heard the news of her death, my heart was still empty, as if I had lost something.
She blinked, suppressed this inexplicable emotion, and asked in a deep voice, "How did she die?" ”
Gong Yuchun didn't speak ill of her words at this time, and sighed in a low voice: "She is going to carry out the eldest brother's secret order." ”
Xiao Gu's brows furrowed even deeper, and he continued to ask, "Where is it, what is the mission?" ”
Gong Yuchun looked at her, there was still anger in his eyes, and he hesitated slightly: "She was ordered to go to Dali Temple to surrender, and then she was secretly sent to the palace, and suddenly encountered an assassin at the gate of the palace. ”
Xiao Gu listened to her words and felt that there was a lot of inside information. was about to ask a question, but he heard Chang Mengchu next to him interject: "People die and everything is over, the sins of the Hu family mainly fall on your father, since the red note sacrificed his life for the righteousness, it is also worth the merits and demerits." ”
His gaze stayed on the iron box in Xiao Gu's hand, and his eyes flashed with a determination to win, "This is Mrs. Zhang's dowry, right?" ”
Xiao Gu felt that his gaze was not good, and his face was not showing anything. In his hand, he clutched the handle of the box, and glanced behind him intentionally or unintentionally, Lan Ning suddenly understood, and waited quietly.
"This is what the eldest brother ordered to search for."
Chang Mengchu smiled slightly, "Since you said that you didn't betray the Jinlan Society, then hand over the iron box in your hand to us." ”
"This is just the deed of land in the women's dowry, which was left by Mrs. Zhang to Miss Ruyao."
Xiao Gu frowned and said, "The Jinlan Society is not a Xiangma bandit who robs the rich. ”
"You should know what is in this."
Chang Meng Chu smiled, and reached out to grab it!
Xiao Gu's eyes flashed with a cold light. With a flicker of sideways, the iron box in his hand was thrown behind him, Lan Ning leaned forward to catch it steadily, and then quickly ran towards the well on the other side of the courtyard.
Gong Yuchun saw the situation and went to chase. Already a step slower, Lan Ning rushed towards the courtyard wall, Chang Mengchu turned around to chase, but was stopped by Xiao Gu flash. The silver blade in her sleeve leaped out. Like a heavenly maiden flying shuttle, she slashed through the air and stabbed towards the back of Chang Mengchu's head!
Chang Mengchu swung his knife horizontally, wanting to knock the silver blade away. Unexpectedly, it whirled and flew like a living creature, and once again circled back to his face, and went straight to his eyes, and he hurriedly returned his knife to block, and sparks splashed everywhere with a clang.
On the other side, Lan Ning ran to the well in one go, picked up the iron box and was about to throw it inside, Gong Yuchun stretched out his hand to stop it, but he was already a step too late, only to hear a pop, and the box fell into the well, causing a splash.
"You!!"
Gong Yuchun was so angry that he trembled, pointing at Lan Ning and couldn't speak, Chang Mengchu over there saw this scene, his face sank, and he forced Xiao Gu back with a knife, and leaned over to the side of the Jingjing railing to look over, only to see ripples, and the water was cold and bottomless.
"Twelve sisters are really a good means!"
Chang Mengchu sneered slightly, glanced at Xiao Gu, and actually took off his clothes and began to climb down from the well railing, his body was flexible and strange, like a big spider weaving webs.
He supported the wall of the well with his hands and feet on all fours, and after a while, he went deep below the surface of the water, and he couldn't see the movement inside clearly, he could only vaguely hear the movement of people, but he didn't come up for a long time.
The movement in the well became smaller and smaller, and it seemed to be still, Gong Yuchun was nervous and angry, pulled out the phoenix tail hairpin between the temples and stabbed towards Lan Ning, but was blocked by Xiao Gu, both of them had short weapons in their hands, and they were all tiger mouths and numbness under the impact to push a step away.
Xiao Gu only felt a sharp pain in his chest, and then he was wet, obviously the wound was cracked again, Gong Yuchun glared at her angrily and scolded: "I really shouldn't believe your rhetoric, you and your father are all the way - this box is related to the great cause of our Jinlan Society, and you are really ill-intentioned to obstruct it in every possible way!" ”
Xiao Gu stared at her and said coldly: "The person who really has bad intentions is the eldest brother. ”
Seeing that Gong Yuchun's face was full of disbelief, she said with a wry smile: "Think about it, he has a lot of things that are done privately from everyone, including the red note entering the palace this time, don't you think there is something strange?" ”
Gong Yuchun's brows were furrowed but loosened, and he retorted: "Big brother's style is so elusive, it's ridiculous for you to talk about this." ”
There was no sarcasm on her face, and it was obvious that Xiao Gu's words also said that she was distracted by a matter or two.
Xiao Gu has always been at odds with the third sister of the Jinlan Society, but she also knows that she is bold and careful and accustomed to the world, and she is not the kind of fool who follows the clouds, so he said: "This box is related to the whereabouts of Emperor Jianwen, what will the eldest brother use it for after getting it, and what kind of plan will it have, none of us know the way, I am afraid that there will be someone with the same fate as the red note in the future!" ”
This is Xiao Gu's heartfelt words, Jing Yu is extremely talented, elusive to ordinary people, what he wants to do with this box, although Xiao Gu is not clear, but he also knows that all his body and mind are contaminated by the fire of revenge, and everyone in the meeting is just a chess piece in his eyes, and he can be discarded at any time in order to achieve his goal.
It's like dying inexplicably in front of the palace on a red note......
Looking at the pain in Xiao Gu's eyes, Gong Yuchun also sighed in his heart, but said: "I'll ask the eldest brother when I go back—no matter what, he is still more reliable than you!" ”
While the two were talking, there was a roar of water in the well, and then a figure surfaced and slowly climbed up the wall of the well, and after a while, a head finally emerged from the side of the well railing.
Chang Mengchu gasped violently, obviously the search just now consumed a lot of his physical strength, he was tied with a thick rope on his back, and what he tied was the iron box, which was actually found and brought up by him at the bottom of the well.
He jumped down, didn't care about resting, and the long knife flew straight towards Xiao Gu, "Twelfth sister, I'm sorry." ”
The language murmured, but the strength of the hand was absolutely ruthless, and the white blade was about to reach the neck between the flickering of the cold light, and was suddenly interrupted by a feather arrow flying in the air——(To be continued......)
