Chapter Forty-Three: The Killer

There is a bamboo forest in the west of Linze Palace, and the guards of the Vientiane tribe are standing on both sides of the bluestone path, and the two guards in front of the cyan stone arch are leaning against the white courtyard wall, their eyes vigilantly watching the movements around them.

"This way, please" Du Pingye and Jian Yu walked in front, Shangguan Gu and Gong Fuchen followed behind them, and the two guards supported Gao Dongzi, who looked drunk.

Although Linze Palace is in the imperial city, it is mainly used for the eight major tribes to live. A secluded courtyard at the end of the bamboo sea, Du Pingye originally wanted that no one would disturb him here, just enough to let Yun Ruowu rest. But unexpectedly, an assassin sneaked here, and for the sake of safety, he transferred all the guards accompanying him to the other courtyard.

Seeing that Elder Du personally brought people over, the guards on both sides of the bamboo forest path cheered up a hundred thousand points.

The guards on both sides of the path saluted respectfully.

About half an hour later, the breeze in the bamboo forest blew slowly, and a burst of coolness woke Gao Dongzi up. "Where is this? You...," he said, turning his head to look to the left and right, thinking he was going to escort himself to the cell.

"Hah, you're finally awake. It's not easy, you are the only one who enters the imperial city in such a drunken state. Gong Fuchen smiled evilly, he gently patted Gao Dongzi's robe, and smoothed out the folds.

Du Pingye glanced back at Gao Dongzi, who had come to his senses, and there was a hint of joy in his eyes, he was still worried about how Gao Dongzi, who was drunk and unconscious, how to treat Yun Ruowu. "It's good to wake up, this is Linze Palace in the imperial city, and we have an injured little brother who needs to bother Mr."

"No," the corners of Gao Dongzi's mouth moved slightly, and his forehead wrinkled slightly.

"What? Didn't the old man specifically tell you before he went out? Hearing Gao Dongzi's extremely reluctant tone, Shangguan Gu coughed dryly and reminded.

Gao Dongzi pondered for a moment, and let out an "oh", remembering that when he was eating wine in the room in the early morning, Gong Fuchen came to pass the word, saying that Shangguan Gu wanted to take him to the palace to treat a nobleman. He thought that he could see the beautiful women and wonderful people in the palace when he entered the palace, but at this moment, there was a bamboo forest in front of him, and it was getting colder and colder the more he walked.

"I remembered, I remembered. It is my duty to save people and heal the sick, as long as there is..."

"Don't worry, as long as you can wake him up, not to mention the ordinary peach blossom brew, it is the wine treasured in the palace, and I will not be stingy." A wicked smile appeared at the corner of Du Pingye's mouth, and he nodded and looked at Gao Dongzi.

"It's a deal!"

"It's a deal!"

When he heard that there was wine as a reward, he salivated and immediately agreed. Gao Dongzi was completely intoxicated, he strode forward, and walked side by side with Du Pingye along the bamboo forest path in the direction of the other courtyard.

Hearing footsteps approaching in the distance, the two Vientiane clan guards guarding the gate of the courtyard cautiously shouted, "Who is it? ”

"It's me," Du Pingye replied in a low voice, and he and everyone hurried through the courtyard gate towards the courtyard.

The two guards were respectfully guarding the door, "Du... Elder Du. The two of them lowered their heads nervously, and watched the footsteps of everyone out of the corner of their eyes.

Hearing Du Pingye's voice from the courtyard, Jian Mingyue, who was guarding the bed in the room, greeted the door, arched his hand, and said softly, "Meet Elder Du, Senior Brother." These three are..."

"This is the head of the Shangguan family, Master Shangguan." Jian Yu led Shangguan Gu and Gong Fuchen into the room slowly, and Du Pingye took Gao Dongzi straight to Yun Ruowu's bedside.

"It's him!" Gao Dongzi looked at the young man lying on the bed, who had been treated in Shangguan Mansion a few days ago, and he didn't know what happened to make his injuries even more serious.

"You know him?" Jian Yu looked at Gao Dongzi's complicated expression and asked in a low voice.

"Is he still saved?" Du Pingye glanced at Jian Yu behind him, and motioned for him to step aside for the time being, so as not to affect Gao Dongzi's rescue of Yun Ruowu.

Gao Dongzi pulled up the two cuffs, revealing the snow muscles and slowly came to Yun Ruowu's side, holding the chest and eyebrows with both hands. "It's not good, how do you take care of him? How could he be so badly injured? He turned his head, the corners of his forehead wrinkled slightly, and looked at Shangguan Gu and Gong Fuchen beside him.

Seeing Gao Dongzi's strange eyes, Gong Fuchen was afraid that there would be a misunderstanding between the Vientiane clan and the Remnant Sword Tower, so he hurriedly explained, "He ran out of the house the day after you finished your treatment, and I didn't know about such a serious injury." ”

"He fell from a cliff behind the palace into Zehai, and he must have been hit hard by the Assassins before he fell." Jian Yu coughed dryly, and said in a calm tone, without the slightest suspicion of the Shangguan family's meaning.

Shangguan Gu stood in the room with a straight face, Gong Fuchen was very frightened, and he was relieved when he heard Jian Yu's explanation, and let out a long breath of turbidity. "Find out who it is? He actually committed murder in the palace. ”

"Alright, you stand down first, I'm going to give him a needle." Gao Dongzi took out the medicine bag he was carrying from his waist, spread the cloth bag on Yun Ruowu's side, and waved his hand to signal everyone not to interfere with him here.

"This..."

Du Pingye was worried that an accident would happen, and he was about to ask to stay in the room, but he was pulled to the screen by Shangguan Lone behind him, "Brother Du, it's okay." ”

"Okay" Seeing this, Du Pingye looked at Shangguan Gu's calm appearance and nodded slightly.

The four people in the room walked behind the screen together and took their seats in turn, and everyone looked into the room from time to time through the gap in the screen.

After everyone retreated to the hall, Gao Dongzi took out the smallest silver needle from the medicine bag and quickly inserted it into several key points on Yun Ruowu's chest to remove the blood congestion between the heart and limbs.

"It's annoying, this guy fell off a cliff twice in a row." Gao Dongzi looked at Yun Ruowu's face was pale, sighed, and said lightly, "I really don't know if it's a big fate or a cliff jumping fate in my previous life!" As soon as he finished speaking, he took out two silver needles as thin as hairs and inserted them into several points on his head very quickly.

"Ahh Yun Ruowu was sealed in several key points on his body, his body instantly swelled with blood, a trace of blood oozed from the corner of his mouth, and he shouted out with a hideous face.

"Hey, I forgot to seal his dumb hole." Gao Dongzi shook his head, and threw out a silver needle in his right hand, and Yun Ruowu, who had just screamed, quieted down for a moment, but the blood veins around his body continued to expand.

Gao Dongzi stood up, turned his right hand in a circle, looked at Yun Ruowu with a hideous face but couldn't shout with a smug face, shook his head and whispered, "It's okay, you hold on." ”

Jian Yu, who was closest to the screen, swept the corner of his eye over Yun Ruowu on the bed, and found that something was wrong, he rushed in quickly, and said urgently, "Who are you?" It hurts the killer! ”

Hearing Jian Yu's reproach, Du Pingye, Shangguan Gu and the other two also hurried in, only to see Gao Dongzi with a smug face, shaking his head to admire Yun Ruowu's difficult struggle and the strange hideous look on his face.
