Chapter Seventy-Eight: Outliers

Mingshu was about to speak, and the maid had already opened the curtain and came in, saying that Uncle Gu Jin was already waiting in the main hall.

After saying goodbye to the Shen family, Mingshu was led by the maid to the main hall.

Gu Jin is in his forties, thin and slender, and has the bearing of an ancient gentleman. Seeing Mingshu, a few smiles appeared on his serious and old-fashioned face, "What is the matter with Ling Ling?" Lunch over? ”

Ming Shu answered, and then took out the arrow wrapped in a handkerchief from the sleeve of the pipa, and said, "I pretended to be Xiao Langjun today and went to the Crane Book Society......"

I told Gu Jin carefully about the things along the way.

Gu Jin's expression was a little strange, and Mingshu couldn't tell what was wrong. I had to ask tentatively: "Uncle does you know about the Crane Bookstore?" ”

The other party shook his head, "I don't know, but it's just a little familiar." Only then did she quickly look at Mingshu, and saw that there was a piece of red on the little girl's face, which was covered by the flowers that were deliberately pasted, and she could see it when she looked closely.

"But there are other injuries? Please don't ask a doctor to see if the arrows are fed with poison. Gu Jin was very nervous.

Mingshu still shook her head and said, "It's not a big deal." She was still in a hurry to hand over the arrow to Gu Jin.

Mingshu continued: "Uncle, you don't know anything about this Crane Bookstore? "How can Gu Jin also be a member of the fourth grade, and there is a marquis, those people are so presumptuous, it is impossible for them to have no foundation.

Gu Jin hesitated for a moment, "I know, but the well water never interferes with the river water." He looked at Ming Shu hesitantly, and then looked away, "This matter is that you have misseen someone else's secret, and the other party naturally wants to kill people." Since you can return to Houfu alive, they are willing to spare your life. ”

Mingshu only felt a chill on her back, and Gu Jin almost said directly that the other party left her alive for the sake of the Gu family's face. Since the other party spared her life, she had to endure it and let the Gu family not offend those people.

If you see their secrets, you will be killed by them? If they don't kill, they give face?

Ming Shu bit her lip and raised her eyes to look directly at Gu Jin, "Uncle, please tell me, what kind of force is that group of people?" After a pause, "Your position can naturally be considered to endure it, I was injured, but I am also qualified to know who hurt me and hurt me!" ”

Gu Jin frowned a little unnaturally and said, "You have to know what these do?" A little girl, stay at home in the future, and my uncle will never let such a thing happen. ”

Mingshu only felt depressed, "According to my uncle's wishes, Mingshu can only stay at home." If no one comes to me, I am safe. If someone is harmed, just wait for someone to be killed without knowing it? ”

Gu Jin frowned violently, turned to Mingshu and said, "Where are you talking!" You are my niece, and you are the little lady from the Pingxi Hou Mansion, who can still let others bully you?! ”

As soon as he lowered his head, the little girl's eyebrows looked at him calmly, and her soft eyebrows and eyes revealed some clear stubbornness, quenched as cold and sharp as ice.

"Uncle, for example, today I went out alone. Even in the house, it is difficult to be watched all the time. Besides, sometimes, others may not be able to protect me. Mingshu lowered her eyes, "I just don't want to be confused, my uncle told me that I have a good bottom in my heart." ”

Gu Jin couldn't find a refutation for a while, and Ming Shu said again: "Uncle alone supports the glory and prominence of the entire Pingxi Hou Mansion, Ling Ling shouldn't trouble you because of this little thing." But I'm still afraid that I don't know anything......"

Gu Jin, who was about to speak, fell silent, his third brother Gu Cong was so amazing and brilliant, but now he only left a young girl.

A little girl without a father or mother will inevitably be scared and timid.

"I really don't know about this, I just know that I have something to do with Jinyiwei. If you have something to do with Jinyiwei, you have something to do with the royal family......"

Gu Jin also simply lowered the corners of his eyebrows, feeling melancholy and helpless. He looked at Mingshu and turned his face away.

Mingshu's heart shook and she bit her lip, "Thank you, uncle." ”

Gu Jin waved his hand.

……

When Gu Huali returned to the thatched hut behind Baozhang Temple, it was already dark. The stars are scarce, and the dead leaves are sassy.

Through the fence gate, Acho's snoring could be heard.

He opened the fence door, went to the window, and put it up. Leaning back, with one hand, he flipped in.

Only a few drops of blood remained on the windowsill.

After fumbling to light the oil lamp and dragging the wooden box of medicine out of the corner, he sat down with a sigh of relief.

In front of the candlelight, the cold sweat on his forehead was shining. Gu Huali locked his eyebrows as if he was customary, and his gaze fell on the wound intently.

Someone came in through the window, got down on one knee, and "was down...... Come on. ”

He nodded, threw the dagger at the man, and closed his eyes. The man came closer, Gu Huali's eyelashes blinked, but he forced himself to relax.

The dagger is passed through the spirits and then roasted on the fire. When it cooled down, the wound was opened.

The man's movements were crisp and neat, and without blinking, he picked out the scissors on his waist and abdomen, and then quickly removed the dirty blood and sprinkled it with hemostatic medicine.

But he frowned and said, "Lang Jun, this arrow is highly poisonous." "This poison is strange, and the strange thing is that the person in front of him has been able to survive until now.

There was no medicine to relieve pain, and the cold sweat on Gu Huali's forehead was smashed down. He was distracted, "Poison won't do me much. ”

Knowing that he couldn't ask anything more, the man didn't ask anymore. Bandaging the wound on his waist, he began to deal with the arrows on his arms again.

With such two arrows, I am afraid that others will be killed on the spot, which is really strange. And the craftsmanship of those people is not worse than them.

Liu Jiu couldn't help but say: "I don't know what those people are from, they are so powerful." ”

Gu Huali snorted and did not speak.

After a while, he said lightly: "If you know that it is powerful, you will have to pay more attention." ”

Liu Jiu decided to shut up.

He moved very well, Gu Huali's concentration was also very good, and the two wounds were bandaged very quickly.

But after the toss, it was already midnight. Liu Jiu said: "This poison is not simple to look at, and the antidote may take a few days...... Fortunately, Lang Jun has a unique physique, and it may be okay to delay it for a few days. ”

Gu Huali nodded, and Liu Jiu flew away from the windowsill again, only vaguely saying from afar: "I will come to see it once a day." ”

It wasn't until Liu Jiu's voice was gone that Gu Huali raised his injured hand, got up and went to the room.

I lay down for a long time, but I still can't sleep. The wound was hot at first, and then it hurt and itched, and it was uncomfortable to move a little.

In fact, he didn't know why he wasn't afraid of poisoning, as if he was born like this. But in fact, he has no memory before the age of six.

It's like it's been erased, blank and blank.

The first memory was in the abandoned courtyard of the Gu family. No one cared about him, and when he went out occasionally, he would be pointed at by the maids, and then they hid together and snickered.

Everyone seemed to look at him with mocking and pitying eyes. It was as if he was an anomaly, an anomaly who deserved to be ostracized.

…… He's an outlier?
