Chapter 41: The Dead

Gu Du opened the door and came out, a crossbow arrow came silently, Gu Du took a step forward, and the crossbow arrow was nailed to the window lattice.

A man in black rushed over with a long sword and stabbed Gu Du in the chest. Gu Du turned sideways, and the horizontal knife took the palm as the axis, and suddenly turned around, slashing through the middle line of the man in black, and the man in black froze.

The horizontal knife turned back to its original position, Gu Du held the handle of the knife, and dragged it diagonally, and the man in black fell on his back.

Jin Lan was shocked again, Gu Du's knife movement just now was beyond the scope of martial arts, and when the horizontal knife rotated on the palm of his hand, it should be controlled with spiritual sense, otherwise it would not be able to achieve that kind of strength at all.

Another man in black rushed over, and before he could get close, Gu Du's horizontal knife took off his hand, piercing the opponent's throat like lightning, and then returned to Gu Du's hand, as if there was an invisible thread attached to the horizontal knife.

The third man in black was Feng Jiu, he was stunned for a moment, then crossed the guardrail and fell into the courtyard, he miscalculated, he never thought that Gu Du would be so powerful!

Gu Du followed and jumped into the courtyard, the horizontal knife took off his hand again, and spun and slashed towards Feng Jiu, who was about to escape, Feng Jiu swung his sword to open the horizontal knife, but the horizontal knife went around in a circle and returned to Gu Du's hand.

And Gu Du had already chased after Feng Jiu, and slashed at Feng Jiu's back, Feng Jiu rolled on the spot, and before he could stand up, Gu Du's knife slashed again, and Feng Jiu could only raise his sword to block.

With a 'zheng' sound, Feng Jiu's arm was numb, the sword was smashed down, and Gu Du's knife was on his neck.

Feng Jiu suddenly shouted, "Jin Lan! Kill him! ”

Gu Du was shocked, he knew that Jin Lan was behind him.

Jin Lan was stunned, and hurriedly took two steps back, his eyes were panicked, and Feng Jiu scolded: "Slut! You actually committed treason to the enemy! ”

Jin Lan suddenly came to his senses, Feng Jiu's arrangement was 'death', to achieve his goal at the cost of death, but Feng Jiu didn't expect Gu Du to be so powerful, and he didn't run away himself.

In fact, it is difficult to win the trust of others in death, but Gu Du likes her and cares about her, as long as Gu Du can believe it, it is enough, as for whether others believe it, it is no longer Jin Lan's problem, but it is transferred to Gu Du.

Jin Lan said: "Gu Du, kill him quickly!" Can't let him leave alive! ”

Gu Du hesitated for a moment, then took back the knife and took a step back.

Feng Jiu and Jin Lan were stunned at the same time, and then Feng Jiu rolled on the spot again, stood up and ran towards the courtyard wall.

Jin Lan exclaimed: "Gu Du! What are you doing here? ”

Feng Jiu had already run over the wall, and Jin Lan hurriedly said, "Chase after it!" Can't let him go back alive! ”

Gu Du looked at her and said, "If he goes back, you can't go back." ”

Jin Lan was stunned, looked at Gu Du in amazement, Gu Du said: "If he goes back alive, it will confirm your treason and defection to the enemy, and you won't think about leaving anymore, otherwise if you are caught by them, you will either die, or life is better than death." ”

"You bastard!" Jin Lan scolded angrily, she was not pretentious, but she didn't expect Gu Du to be like this.

Although Feng Jiu's intention was to accuse her of treason and defection to the enemy, so that she could stay by Gu Du's side, Gu Du used the same strategy, and it was more straightforward.

Jin Lan felt scared, Gu Du was no longer the young man in his impression, he had become more thoughtful and ruthless!

Gu Du walked towards Jin Lan, stopped in front of her, lowered his head and looked into her eyes and said, "The soul master said that if I can subdue you, you can stay." ”

Jin Lan was dazed, raised his hand and slapped Gu Du's mouth, now did Feng Jiu's death play a role, or did Gu Du use this assassination to kill her back?

Gu Du raised his hand, scratched his cheek with his fingers, and said with a smile: "I'm still worried about how to keep you, but they sent it to the door, and I have to thank them." ”

Jin Lan said with a dull gaze: "I am innocent. ”

She didn't know why she said this, maybe she wanted to refute Gu Du, or maybe she wanted to explain to herself, but in fact, she didn't know why such a sentence came out.

Gu Du smiled and said, "Go upstairs, I'll go to the front yard and let them report to the official." ”

Jin Lan stared at him for a moment, then turned around and entered the small building.

reported to the officer, the officers and soldiers came to see the situation, and carried the bodies of the two assassins away, Gu Du left the crossbow in his hand, in fact, he had always wanted a crossbow, but he was all detained by Wu Renxiong, and this time he finally got what he wanted.

Pushing open the door of the two maids, seeing the two little girls huddled on a couch, trembling, Gu Du smiled and said, "It's okay, don't be afraid, go to sleep." ”

The two little girls nodded stiffly together, Gu Du closed the door for them, and then returned to Jin Lan's room.

Jin Lan sat on the couch and looked at him and asked, "Are you trying to subdue me?" ”

Gu Du was stunned for a moment, then lost his smile, put the crossbow on the table, and said: "I just want to keep you, you are not my slave girl, what you don't want to do, I won't force you, I like you, I wrote a letter to you, but at that time, the soul master said to me, if you can't keep you, don't worry about it more, so I tore the letter again, but from that day on, I knew that I couldn't forget you." ”

After speaking, Gu Du turned around and left, and went back to his room.

Jin Lan sat on the couch for a long time, smiling with tears in his eyes, in fact, Gu Du knew everything, he just chose to say and not to say anything.

Early the next morning, Gu Du didn't say hello to Jin Lan, and went back to the palace directly, saw Chu Qin, and told him about last night's events, Chu Qin frowned.

Shangguan He reprimanded: "You're dizzy! This is obviously designed by them, otherwise how could it be so coincidental, they went to assassinate you as soon as you came back, Xiang Chongyang is already dead, who would hate you so much that you don't die? Is it necessary to take such a big risk and assassinate one of your child servants? ”

Gu Du said: "Senior sister is right, it won't be such a coincidence, but because of this, it also shows that there are still fine works in the palace, because Jin Lan didn't know that I was back, and as soon as I got home, I was always with her, and she had no way to inform others, unless there were fine works in the next person." ”

Shangguan He was stunned for a moment, and then reprimanded: "Don't tell me anything else!" Let me ask you, do you have to want that rebel? ”

Gu Du replied: "Yes, but she is no longer a rebel, and she has no way out." ”

Rexia's tears flowed down her eyes and she silently returned to her room.

Chu Qin stood up and said, "Gu Du, follow me to see the high priest." ”

Gu Duying said: "Yes." ”

Shangguan He stomped his foot angrily, walked into Lixia's room, and saw Lixia lying on the couch crying.

Shangguan He scolded: "Why are you so useless? Just know to cry! ”

Rexia choked up and replied, "What can I do?" He just likes Jin Lan, what can I do? ”

Shangguan He walked to the edge of the couch and sat down, sighed heavily, pondered for a while and said, "Okay, don't cry, what's the use of just crying?" ”

Lixia replied aggrievedly: "What else can I do if I don't cry?" ”
