Chapter 140: Darkness and Clarity
The two helpers who led the way looked apologetic, and their mouths continued to pay no. And the four people who came this way, except for Gu Xing, who was hungry, the other three didn't seem to care. In this way, it seems that Gu Xing is a little childish.
Just as Gu Xing was about to raise his feet and walk to the courtyard gate, a gang member stumbled over from a distance, and one stumbled and fell at Mo Ye's feet, still holding Mo Ye's clothes and shaking. He muttered, "Dead people, so many dead heads." ”
Gu Xing, who was already raising his feet, became interested when he heard the words, took back the front feet that had not fallen, trotted to the gang, pulled him up, and asked expectantly, "What's going on, where is there a dead man's head to take me to see." ”
The gang was obviously scared stupid, it stands to reason that the dry land of Yuelou is all murderous and over-the-top, and there is no reason to be scared of the dead and crazy, unless Mo Ye thinks about it in his heart, so he instructed the gang on the left to lead the way, "Send someone to investigate the truth first, if there is a clue, report it immediately." ”
The left side helped the crowd to lead the way with fists, and Gu Xing was about to follow, but he was picked up by Mo Ye like a chick, and walked quickly to the outer courtyard, "The landlord is still waiting, don't let him wait too long." ”
After speaking, he threw Gu Xing to the ground, turned his head to the right side and led the way, and ordered, "Take these two girls down and take care of them." There was a chill in his words, which made the smiling gang change his face in an instant.
Because Mo Ye saw just now, this gang member has been looking at these two Yi Chu carefully, I am afraid that they have been confused by the beauty of the two, if they don't say anything and wake up, something goes wrong, it will be difficult to clean up.
The gang raised his hand and gave him a mouthful, and then he reluctantly said, "My subordinates, I'll do it." After speaking, he picked up the rope that had fallen to the ground and was already covered with dust, as if he wanted to perform hard in front of Mo Ye, and pulled it hard in front of him.
Na Siyan was originally relying on Chu Nanshuang, but he was dragged by this and almost fell to the ground. Mo Ye didn't know what he thought, so he quickly stepped forward and picked up Chu Nanshuang, and said coldly to the gang, "Lead the way." ”
Gu Xing only recovered from the confusion of falling to the ground at this time, but when he saw that Mo Ye left him and left with the two of them, he was angry. Although I don't know what the status of this senior is in the building, if he can win it over, it will naturally be a good thing.
But biquxxbiz is a co-opter, and he doesn't want to see himself like this, and I'm afraid it's not a master to mess with. At this moment, a gentle male voice came from the second floor, "Come back, come up." ”
Gu Xing was shocked suddenly, and said secretly in his heart, "It seems that he can't hide, I don't know if he has noticed it when he is so eager to see me." ”
Gu Xing looked up, but there was not a single figure, but he still didn't dare to slack off, so he got up and ran towards the mysterious two-story building quickly. In the face of the huge difference in strength between the clouds and mud, in addition to forbearance, he can only grovel to flattery.
Who has not buried his revenge deeply, but he does not dare to slack off for a moment. This is the first step taken by Gu Xing, and it is also the first step to complete his fate. He needs to understand this man in order to kill this man completely.
But when Gu Xing knocked on the door that had never been touched before, the gentle male voice inside the door sounded again, "Come in." His voice was too gentle, but it was not like what he had spoken at that night, in that house, at that moment fourteen years ago.
Gu Xing's mind was entangled by chaotic thoughts, and he suddenly felt a burning sensation in his heart, and the spiritual platform slowly calmed down and regained his clarity. Gu Xing secretly sighed, patted the token on his chest, pushed the door and walked in.
is also like a deferential and humble helper, after walking into this door, he turned around and gently concealed it, before he turned around and knelt on the ground, clenched his fists and said loudly, "My subordinate Lone Star has failed to complete the landlord's order, please surrender." ”
He walked from the downstairs to the sixty-eight steps upstairs, pondering his words at every step. If you keep your mouth shut, you may make this person suspicious, and if you are open, you are afraid that this person will be suspicious. It's better to tell the truth, and come cooler.
Nalan was still wiping the long sword, and Gu Xing had already seen it the moment he entered the door, but his palm was clenched and then relaxed, and it was also in an instant. Now Gu Xing, with his eyebrows lowered and his eyes pleased, hung his head in despair, as if waiting for the long sword to cross his throat.
The man who wiped the long sword had long silver-white hair, unstained in dust, and was dressed in white, not stained with any dust. He was still in no hurry, not in a hurry, not in a hurry, he put away the long sword, gently tore off a silver hair, wrapped it around his index finger, and looked at it carefully.
Gu Xing didn't dare to raise his head, he didn't know how Nalan would hold him accountable, he was afraid that if he raised his head, he would die here. This pair of mortal enemies was so close at this time. It's just that one person has reached the heavens, and the other is just a low-level martial artist who does not enter the stream.
Nalan used his silver-haired hand to pick up the glow-in-the-dark cup on the table, filled with red wine, swaying slightly as soon as he picked it up. Nalan took a shallow sip, he had almost no feelings for the person in front of him, and he didn't have much intersection except to help him break through the border.
But he asked Mono to find it yesterday, but he just wanted to give it a try, he wanted to protect him and cultivate him, maybe it was just a whim. After all, he is only in his early thirties, he is strong and strong, and he still has a lot of time and energy to spend on killing and planning, and it is not the time to find a successor.
Moreover, the qualifications of the people in front of him cannot afford the word "successor". But he was faintly worried, because this kid in his early fourteens had the shadow of him entering the rivers and lakes at the beginning of the year, so he left him.
In fact, it's just an excuse, Nalan sent Gu Xing to Longshou County, originally to let him go to death, and specially instructed the old man, but he wanted to see if the other three had different intentions. Now, only he is back, Longshou County has been in chaos, although it has not been successful, but it has found another way, which can be regarded as a great achievement.
So he pursed his lips and smiled, looked at the young man kneeling on the ground, and didn't say a word. At this time, Gu Xing's heart was already full of revenge and anger, but he had to suppress it desperately, so that the people in front of him could not detect it.
Finally, after a long silence, Nalan spoke, "I know all those things, get up." ”
Gu Xing didn't dare to delay for a moment, and hurriedly got up. It's just that I knelt for a long time, and I was extremely hungry, and I suddenly felt a little dizzy. pinched his thigh the moment he got up. This casual small action did not escape Nalan's eyes.
It's just that one person did it intentionally, and one person unintentionally broke it.
Nalan picked up another glow-in-the-dark cup, poured half of the wine in the cup into the cup, and handed it to Gu Xing, "Come, drink it, you will feel better." At this time, Gu Xing, who was already sweat-stained in his palms, wiped his hands on both sides of his shirt before carefully taking it, staring at the red in the cup, but refusing to drink it immediately.
"You're worried that I'm poisoning the wine," Nalan quipped suddenly. It was a dignified and somewhat cold air, but after this sentence, it seemed a little mischievous and angry.
After Gu Xing heard this, he didn't hesitate any longer, and raised his glass and drank it. A burst of brain-pounding stamina immediately came up to his throat, and Gu Xing, who was choking, coughed again and again. Seeing this, Nalan burst into laughter. Xu has never seen anyone drink alcohol and will kick back, I think it's funny.
Nalan wanted to continue to persuade him to drink, but suddenly an indifferent voice sounded outside the door, "Landlord, I don't know if Lone Star has not reported it, and he also caught two memories by the way." ”
The person who spoke was Mo Ye, he was carrying Chu Nanshuang and leaving, why did he appear here so soon and he spoke coldly, and he was not half polite to this Mingyue Mansion Lord. There was no hint of credit between the words, but he threw all the credit to himself, and he couldn't figure it out.
Gu Xing held the wine glass in both hands, lowered his head, and did not dare to cross the slightest. And Nalan heard the words of the person outside the door, and after thinking for a long time, he said faintly, "Do you always have to spoil my interest at a critical time, you can handle such a small matter with full authority, and there is no need to report it." ”
The person outside the door didn't mean to push the door in, but snorted coldly, and then turned over and went downstairs. Nalan seemed a little annoyed, but he couldn't say it, he just sneered a few times, and then stopped talking.
At this time, Gu Xing was holding the luminous cup, not putting it, not putting it down, and froze on the spot. Nalan had already lost interest in the kid in front of him, and suddenly thought of something, so he continued, "Yi Chu will leave it to that person to deal with, you go and see what happened to the noodle stall at the West City Gate just now." ”
When Gu Xing heard this, he carefully put down the luminous cup, clenched his fists and led away. After Gu Xing walked out of the second floor, Nalan walked to the wall directly opposite the table and knocked on it.
Suddenly, a pleasant female voice sounded from behind the wall, "Master, what do you command?"
Nalan Xu was a little unhappy when he was ridiculed just now, but after hearing the woman's words, he regained his gentle voice, "The people in the bureau have returned, you can get out." With that, there was a long silence behind the wall.
After about half a stick of incense, the woman said leisurely, "Master has decided."
Nalan didn't hesitate at the moment, he was still tender, "Go ahead, don't forget the things I assigned." I don't know what this woman is important to Nalan, and she is reluctant to even speak in a heavier tone, for fear of annoying the woman.
And the person behind the wall, a moment after Nalan finished speaking, opened an opening out of thin air from the originally airtight wall and slowly drilled out.
The woman looked to be no more than thirteen or fourteen years old, but she was already slim to the ground, and her long shawl hair was black and shiny, like the night dotted with stars. A cold face, but it looks a little like Nalan. It's just that that pretty face is too special, and with that jade palm that is less than two inches, it can be completely covered without revealing anything.
A pair of bright eyes, sparkling, lovable. And the delicate tip of the nose, a little more too proud, a little less too delicate, so appropriate, as if it had been accurately calculated. There are also the bright teeth under the lips of the light opening of the vermilion, such as the extreme north, the precious shells under the frost and snow, reflecting the brightness that enters through the window.
If it is said that this face is already a country and a city, then this graceful figure is even more flattering. It's not as pretentious as that Siyan, but it's a little more playful and cute than her. From time to time, Chu Nanshuang was as cold as ice, but he was noble and graceful from his bones.
The upright posture is actually more than that of the seven-foot man, and the thin armor is more heroic and cool. There is also a sword hanging from the waist, the short knife is pinned to the left waist, the scabbard is covered with python patterns, but it is not hideous, and there are dark purple gems embellished on it, which adds a bit of majestic atmosphere.
The handle of the knife is not an ordinary style, I don't know which good craftsman made it into a red bird's beak, and a bright red bead is embellished on it, making the whole short knife unforgettable. And the long sword looks ordinary, except for the scabbard wrapped with red rope, only the hilt is engraved with the word "Ling", and there is nothing special.
Compared to the short knife, it pales in comparison.
