An old man and a young man stood behind the outer gate, one left and one right hidden behind the mottled red lacquered wood pillars of the outer door, which looked to be a few years old, but they were a little out of place with the Forbidden Army Commander's Mansion, but they complemented this bamboo garden.

Gu Xing was a little hesitant at this time, he didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse, and subconsciously glanced at the old official's house. The old official's family could have sat in a precarious place, but the flying harrier biography added a few variables. Therefore, there is no way to take into account the suspicion of others, and it is necessary to use this trick to respond to all changes without change.

The sound of hurried footsteps stopped abruptly outside the door, and at this time, the sun was thin, and the afterglow of the late spring sunset was slowly scattered in the courtyard of the mountain stream, which had a unique charm. However, the three people in the courtyard were all preoccupied, and the scene of their joy just now vanished in the sudden sound of footsteps.

Knock knock! It's the sound of a heartbeat, but it's also the sound of a knock. The old official's family knows that the people who can come here alone are not more than five in the house, and there are already two people in the courtyard, so the remaining three people will inevitably be not good.

But maybe it's for Gu Boy? No matter who he came for, the bamboo garden of the second son of the Gao family was originally a forbidden place, and since he dared to come to the door rashly, he must have something to rely on. Of course, Gu Xing didn't know what the old official was thinking at this moment, he was just worried, worried that the Immortal Venerable would be found and that he would be exposed.

Thinking of this, the two of them clenched their fists tacitly, and a little bead of sweat oozed from the foreheads of the old and the young. This untimely state made Gao Qianzhan who was standing outside the wing room at this time secretly tighten his heart.

With a hurried knock on the door, there was a deathly silence inside and outside the Bamboo Garden. The people outside the courtyard did not knock on the door rashly, and the two people in the courtyard also walked slowly towards the outer door with almost indistinguishable steps.

A gust of night breeze blew, and the sunset had followed the pace of the setting sun, fading into the distance. It's an eternal truth, but it doesn't seem to have any beauty in it now, but it looks particularly glaring.

Maybe the person outside the door was about to lose his patience, and after another hurried "dong dong", a deep but gentle voice sounded outside the door, "Xiao Zhan, it's me." When the voice fell, both people in the courtyard were shocked.

Gao Qianzhan was about to run to the outer door when he heard this, but was stopped by the old official's hand and motion. At the same time, he said: "Miss, it's been such an hour, I don't know why I'm here?" Gu Xing's chill was even worse at this time, this woman was the commander of the contemporary forbidden army of the Gao family, who had blocked the road before, made it difficult in the hall, and was bound to put herself to death.

Just looking at the reaction of the old official's family, although he has breathed a sigh of relief, he has not let down his guard. That's why I asked. Outside the door, Gao Chengying paused for a moment, and said with a smile: "Father asked me to come and take Old Ge's apprentice to the front hall, and by the way, see if the second brother is sleeping peacefully?" ”

The old official seemed to be completely relieved, so he stepped forward to open the door. Gu Xing jumped back lightly, and didn't stop until he came to the side of the high-diving exhibition. When the old official's house opened, the scene in the courtyard was very different from just now.

Gao Chengying frowned slightly, just now he clearly felt that in addition to the old official's house, there was a not weak aura flowing, but why did it dissipate between breaths. And the kid from the Gu family next to the second brother doesn't look like a person with such skills, is there still one person in this courtyard?

Although Gao Chengying was suspicious, he didn't want to stay any longer, so he instructed the old official to let him take care of Gao Qianzhan, so he hooked his hand at Gu Xing and motioned him to follow.

Gu Xing felt that Gao Chengying had restrained his killing intent, and looked at himself with a smile, it seemed that something worth playing had happened, but it was not good to show it here in person. Then on the way to the outer hall, there must be some temptation, it is better to bring a high-diving exhibition, and it is easy to solve such an embarrassment.

Thinking of this, Gu Xingzhan smiled and asked Gao Qianzhan, "You can go with me, okay?" This is a sparse and ordinary question, but it seems to the two people in the courtyard to be extremely dangerous. The old official was the first to stand up and say: "Gongzi is tired of traveling and driving, and it is uncomfortable to bump again, so please take care of Gongzi by himself." ”

Gao Chengying thought that the old official's family would be accommodating, but he didn't expect this old fox to protect him like this, and directly asked Gu Xing to get out, but he made it clear that he was involved. Gao Qianzhan looked embarrassed, looking at the old official's family and hoping that he would agree.

But without waiting for the old official's family to continue to answer, Gao Chengying said aloud: "Second brother, you are so resting, Gu Gongzi, why don't you go with me?" Shall I please you? These words were sonorous and powerful, and the meaning of rejection and threat in the words was obvious, Gu Xing could only look at the high diving exhibition helplessly, and followed with heavy steps with his head pulled his head.

When Gao Chengying led Gu Xing out of the outer door of the Bamboo Garden, the old official's family immediately closed the door with lightning speed, Gao Chengying's face was as usual when he saw this, but Gu Xing sighed, looked back at the Bamboo Garden, and seemed to hear Gao Qianzhan's angry voice, but it was too late to say anything, so he could only speed up his pace to keep up.

Gao Chengying walked forward without looking back, keeping his distance while awake, and followed not far away. The two of them just went one after the other, and they didn't have any intention of talking. Rao is atmosphere is already extremely embarrassing, and let it be so. It was as if whoever spoke first would lose his life.

At this time, a little twilight had fallen, and the afterglow was slowly swallowed behind Gu Xing, and the pitch-black monster was opening its equally pitch-black bloody mouth, biting at the last bit of light. Finally, this already deep bluestone road was shrouded in darkness. At this time, on the bluestone pavement, there was only a heavy echo, and there was no light.

When the two walked out of the dim bamboo forest, Gu Xing finally couldn't hold back the doubts in his heart and asked, "Where is this?" "Knowingly asked." Gao Chengying said without looking back.

Gu Xing didn't expect her to answer immediately, nor did he expect her to answer so simply. Just like that day outside the city, this person mixed in a team of red armor sneak attack, there was no superfluous words, only the aura of slaughter diffused.

At this time, Gu Xing felt the familiar breath again, the kind of cold that was about to overflow out of the body and break into the bone marrow. Gu Xingzhi knew that his words might annoy the people in front of him, so he thought about it again and again, and then asked, "Dare to ask Commander Gao, can the investigation have a result?" ”

Gao Chengyingmei thought that Gu Xing asked so straightforwardly, and after a slight pause, he said unhurriedly: "Are you scared?" Gu Xing did not answer directly, but said a sharpened answer: "You always have to come when you should come, and it's useless if you shouldn't have time." ”

Gao Chengying seemed to be a little impressed by Gu Xing's words, suddenly stopped, turned to stare at Gu Xing, and didn't take his eyes off for a long time. Gu Xing was a little stunned by this suddenness, so he simply lowered his head and did not look at the other party to avoid this confrontational look.

Gao Chengying saw that Gu Xing didn't dare to look at herself, so she laughed loudly: "But your heart is empty? Gu Xing raised his head and glared back angrily when he heard this, but he didn't say a word. Gao Chengyingmei expected that the person in front of him would act like this, so she withdrew her gaze, turned around and continued to walk forward, and said calmly: "I know that Xiaozhan is interested in you, but you shouldn't get too close to her, it won't do you any good." ”

Gu Xing was a little embarrassed by this sudden words, so he could only divert the topic and say, "Commander Gao, I don't quite understand what you mean. I don't know if my master is okay, but I hope you will tell me a thing or two. ”

Gao Chengying sneered, and didn't answer anymore, but just quickened his pace, as if he wanted to distance himself from Gu Xing. Just walked quickly, chased after it, and soon came to the door of the outer hall. Gao Chengying motioned for Gu Xing to wait outside the hall, but Gu Xing didn't mean to go in rashly, so he simply leaned against the pillar of the porch outside the door, closed his eyes and recuperated.

Gao Chengying walked into the outer hall and vaguely heard what she said to the people in the hall, and heard a familiar voice say: "Wake up, come in, the head of the Gao family has something to ask you." ”

When Gu Xing walked into the outer hall, there were a few more people in the hall than before, these people Gu Xing had never seen before, but they didn't look like people in the rivers and lakes, but like officials and guests.

Seeing that Gu woke up, the person on the left suddenly got up and clenched his fists and said: "According to the order of the lord of the building, the two people who have been in the city in a few days are my people from Mingyue Tower, and Elder Ge also knows about this, and I also ask Commander Gao not to continue to pursue it." ”

As soon as the words fell, another Taoist dressed in brocade and silk and holding a dust whisk also got up and said: "The lord of the country let the poor Dao bring a sentence, just when the two countries are at war and employing people, we must not lose the hearts of the people because of suspicion. ”

After listening to the words of the two, the faces of the people in the hall sank like water. And Gao Chengying smiled, hugged his fists and said in return: "Please bring a word, I, Gao Chengying, have done my duty, as for the result, I will not delve into it." ”

The two smiled and clasped their fists, saluted and turned to leave. Seeing this scene, Gu Xing's heart, which was already hanging in his throat, landed safely. Ge Lao still looked scheming, and he didn't see any mood swings.

After the people in the hall saw the two of them walking out of the door, they slowly said to Gao Chengying: "Chengying, there is no need to investigate this matter again." Gao Chengying clenched his fists in agreement, but just turned his head to look at Gu Xing, revealing a meaningful smile.

When Ge Lao saw this, he got up and said goodbye, but he didn't expect the people in the hall to let the two of them leave, and said with a smile: "Ge Lao is slow, the misunderstanding has been cleared at this time, but there is still something to trouble you in two days, so please stay in the cold house for a few more days, so that I can do my landlord's friendship." ”

Ge Lao's face was embarrassed, and he wanted to say something, but Gao Chengying said: "Ge Lao doesn't need to worry, this matter is related to the country, and please sit in the mansion so that I can rest assured." ”

When Ge Lao heard this, he could only accept it, and the people in the hall saw that Ge Lao no longer shirked, and his face was happy, so he motioned to the servants to take the two of them down to rest. After Teacher Ge walked out of the outer hall gate, Gao Chengying asked puzzledly: "Father, since it's already over, why do you want to keep the two of you?" ”

"Cheng Ying didn't know, there was a big event in two days, and Ge Lao couldn't do it. In addition, I am quite interested in this Gu Xing, and I can stay for a few more days to find out my identity, so as not to cause chaos in the future. ”

"Father is suspicious of the lord of the country and Mingyue Lou to protect his life?" "These two people just entered the city at this time, and let the lord of the country and Mingyue Lou move the people, which has to make people suspicious!"

Gao Chengying nodded heavily, and with a wave of his hand, a red armor walked in quickly. Gao Chengying whispered a few words beside this person, and the man hugged his fists and left. At this time, the two people in the hall, after looking at each other, both showed a playful smile.
