Chapter 109: Countermeasures
Mama Li crossed her waist with one hand, pointed with one finger, scolded vigorously in the posture of a teapot, and even wanted to walk over and kick a few feet, but Leng Buding heard a familiar voice, and her movements immediately stiffened in place.
In the middle of summer, the sound was like a cold wind blowing into her bones.
She slowly lowered her hands, and finally looked carefully at the two people who came over, her two legs seemed to be drained of all their strength in an instant, and she suddenly collapsed to the ground, and was so frightened that she knelt on the ground and begged for mercy: "Fifth Miss, Seventh Miss, it was the slave who collided with you, it was the slave whose old eyes were yellow, please forgive the slave!" ”
"You want to skin me?" Gu Qianxue walked in front of her and looked down at her coldly.
"Don't dare, don't dare, the slave is just a momentary angry talk, how can he do such a rebellious thing to the master!" Mama Li kowtowed vigorously, her wrinkled forehead falling on the floor tiles of the garden, knocking crisply.
Gu Qianxue listened to such a panicked kowtow, and stood with her hands in her hands, her expression indifferent, without any emotion.
"Once, I knelt before you like this." She spoke, her tone ethereal, as if she was reminiscing about her childhood.
She was supposed to be the eldest daughter of the Gu family's big house, but her biological mother died early, and it was rumored in the family that she was a widow, and she was not treated well from then on, and was sent by the new stepmother to drive to the side house where people don't live, and Gu Wei, who was also unfavored, depended on each other.
Later, in a very cold winter, she was so hungry that she couldn't stand it, so she quietly ran to the kitchen, stole two steamed buns that were about to go spoiled, bumped into Mama Li on the way back, and was found to be carrying the steamed buns in her arms, and directly dragged her hair all the way over, and found her master to sue to ask for credit.
Because of a stealing word, in full view of everyone, she was punished by the family law, and smoked more than 20 whips, each whip seemed to be whipping her dignity, and finally she fell to the ground in her dying, and heard Mama Li say with extremely vicious contempt for her, the girls of the Gu family have never stolen anything, and they are really a cheap embryo!
At that moment, she wanted to stand up, she wanted to shout, she wanted to defend herself.
But she couldn't open her mouth, and was thrown back into the side house with wind and snow leaking like garbage by the family.
She lay in the thick snow, still stained red by the bloody wounds on her body, she looked at the gloomy sky, and felt a great hatred for this world.
She thought she would die in the winter of this year.
Later, someone carried her back from the snow......
"What are you thinking?"
Someone suddenly pushed her back, Gu Qianxue's thoughts immediately returned, she turned her head to look at Gu Yunying who was standing next to her, and immediately looked away.
Gu Yunying was confused by this inexplicable gaze: "What are you doing stupidly?" What are you going to do with this man? ”
Mama Li was excited, and kowtowed even harder: "Miss Seven, Miss Seven, Miss Seven!" Slaves are all obedient to orders, really not intentionally to make things difficult for you, you adults don't remember villains, let go of the minions! The children of the slave have left early, and only one young grandson remains, so you should have pity on me and my grandson, and spare the life of the slave! ”
When Gu Yunying heard this, she exaggeratedly wowed: "Your children are dead, is this considered a newspaper of the present world?" ”
Mama Li's wrinkled face twitched uncontrollably, but she didn't dare to refute anything, and even nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, the slave has been punished, Miss Seven, you can let the slave go." ”
"How old is your grandson?" Gu Qianxue asked.
"Seven years old! He just turned seven last month! Mama Li hurriedly replied, looking at her hopefully.
Gu Qianxue lowered her eyelids and said lightly: "Coincidentally, I lack a medicine in alchemy, a seven-year-old child's heart, if you can give me your grandson's heart, I will spare your life, otherwise I will kill you." ”
"Your life, or your grandson's heart, choose one."
Mama Li's eyes widened in shock: "Miss Seven, I'm ...... I can't ......."
"I can give you one night's time, don't think about running away, as a disciple of the Heavenly Sect, I have my own means of tracking."
Gu Qianxue put down this sentence, no longer paid attention to Mama Li's pleading, and walked quickly towards the big house.
Mama Li still didn't give up, turned her head and grabbed Gu Yunying's skirt, and cried loudly: "Fifth Miss, save the slave, the slave is just such a grandson!" ”
Gu Yunying was even more unmoved, pulled back the corner of her clothes more vigorously, and followed Gu Qianxue into the courtyard where the big house was located.
No matter how poignant the crying behind was, she didn't want to mix it up.
She has no memory of Gu Wei, nor is she a victim like Gu Qianxue, she has no position to intercede for Mama Li, and she is not qualified to forgive Gu Qianxue.
Forgiveness or not is the right of the victim, not the obligation of the bystander.
She walked up quickly, grabbed Gu Qianxue's shoulder very manfully, and said with a smile: "It's not that you don't want to retaliate, I see that you are very clever in this method." ”
Gu Qianxue turned her head sideways, not wanting to pay attention to her, but she didn't shake off the arm that was pressing on her shoulder: "That's just that she just provoked me." ”
"Hey, didn't you say you wouldn't go to the big house before, why did you go faster than me?"
Gu Qianxue glanced at her helplessly.
Gu Yunying was reluctant to move forward, and continued: "Don't be so cold, we are also sisters who share weal and woe. ”
"Huh." The corners of Gu Qianxue's mouth twitched.
"Speaking of which, after you returned to Xuantian Sect, didn't you get troubled by the Xie family?" Gu Yunying asked the question she had been puzzled about for a long time.
Gu Qianxue was silent for a while, and then smiled a little gloatingly: "The person who was troubled was not me, but Song Yuan." ”
"Xie Lianhua killed himself because of him, the head of the Xie family was so angry that he had to force him to marry Xie Lianhua, Song Yuan hid in Xuantian Sect, and he didn't know what method he used to escape, you can ask him later."
Gu Yunying rubbed her chin, she didn't expect Song Yuan's peach blossoms to be so strong.
Or rather, Xie Lianhua's resentment is so deep, he really didn't let him go.
As the two spoke, they walked into the courtyard occupied by the big house, and before they reached the patio, they heard a sound of impatient conversation.
"Mother, why hasn't Dad brought her back yet?"
"What's in a hurry, she became a disciple of Xuantian Sect, so she naturally wants to put on a show."
"What kind of score does she pose as a cheap embryo? My Gu family has raised her for so many years, she should have repaid us! ”
"You should be more attentive, don't deal with her like before, remember to say more good things, it's best to coax her to take you to the Seven Sects' Discussion Meeting."
Gu Yunying and Gu Qianxue are both well-qualified monks, and their realm is not bad among their peers, so the whispers of the mother and daughter in the courtyard all fell into their ears, and they were so clear.
"Your stepmother is very powerful, she can bend and stretch, has a lot of means, and has a clear goal." Gu Yunying commented politely.
Gu Qianxue was too lazy to look at her, and when the conversation in the courtyard became more and more energetic, she suddenly walked in, so that all the conversations stopped abruptly, and the women in the courtyard all turned pale, and looked at Gu Qianxue who walked in in in amazement.
Even when they saw Gu Yunying who was following closely behind, they all gasped.
Why, do these two look like evil stars who have come to collect debts?!
The eldest lady was the first to come back to her senses, pushed the two daughters standing beside her, and forced a smile on her face: "Xiaoqi, you are finally back, my mother really misses you to death, your two sisters are arguing to come out to meet you, come over and let us see, it looks more iconic than when you left." ”
Gu Qianxue clasped her hands in front of her chest, looked at her hypocritical smile indifferently, her eyes swept over Gu Lin and Gu Lang who were full of disgruntle, they were only one year younger than herself, and they grew up pampered at home, and they would not hide their emotions at all, and the disgust and contempt were unobstructed on their faces.
"You want me to take you to the Seven Sects Treatise?" Gu Qianxue said their purpose straight to the point, "Die of this heart, I can't afford to lose this face." ”
Gu Lin stood up suddenly, and glared at her angrily: "Gu Qianxue, don't be embarrassed, if it weren't for your luck and a good face, a waste with qualifications like you could enter the Xuantian Sect, why can't we become famous in one fell swoop in the Dao Society?" ”
"Poof!"
An abrupt sneer drew angry glances from Gu Lin and Gu Lang.
Gu Yunying covered her lips and smiled so much that her eyebrows and eyes were crooked: "I'm sorry, I didn't hold back, the main thing is that this is too ridiculous." ”
She originally just wanted to be a melon-eating crowd, but she never thought about it, but she heard such a laughing remark.
Should it be said that they are too ignorant, or is it because of Gu Qianxue and her as a reference, so they feel that Tianzong is nothing more than Erer?
"Gu Wei, you ......!" Gu Lang also wanted to stand up, but was stopped by the eldest lady in time.
Gu Qianxue held her forehead, even if she knew that the mother and daughter were arrogant, she didn't expect that she was so self-aware, what kind of place would the Seven Sects of the Dao be, and what kind of dragons and phoenixes could the righteous monks gather there, how could they be compared to the monks from a mere third-rate family?
"It's not impossible for you to go to the Dao Society, as long as you can make three moves."
Gu Qianxue said, took out her spirit sword "Innocent", and pulled a beautiful sword flower in the air.
As soon as Gu Lin saw the Innocent in her hand, her eyes immediately lit up, and she said, "If I make three moves, you still have to give me this spirit sword!" ”
"And life and death!" Gu Lang also hurriedly said his request.
"Yes," Gu Qianxue glanced at them lightly, and the corners of her mouth suddenly hooked an arc: "Life or death doesn't matter." ”
As soon as the words fell, Gu Lin took the lead in pulling out her spirit sword, wanting to attack Gu Qianxue by surprise, she stabbed straight towards Gu Qianxue, and saw her standing motionless, as if she was scared silly.
A cruel look flashed in her eyes, piercing Gu Qianxue's heart, and as soon as she made a move, it was a killing move.
Gu Yunying was looking at it vigorously, when a gust of wind suddenly came from behind her, and she suddenly summoned the spirit sword, blocked it with her backhand, and blocked Gu Lang's sneak attack from behind.
"It looks like you're blind." Gu Yunyingpi said with a smile.
Gu Lang smiled proudly: "I just said that I made three moves, and I didn't say who I was fighting against, I would have seen that you were unhappy for a long time, let me die!" ”
