Chapter 215: Murder in the middle of the night

The spies sent by Lu Wang to blend into the greenhouse early in the morning really saw that Gu Tingcheng had a close relative visiting, and the update was the fastest

Their master, naturally, is Lu Zuo Zhaoyi's brother, and Lu Wang, the secretary of the military department.

Lu Ling saw a ghost because of Lu Zuo Zhaoyi's life that day, Lu Wang asked the Taoist priest to overdo the green smoke, and he also took leave to leave the barracks and returned home.

"Gu Tingcheng, see if you can be arrogant this time!" Lu Wang said fiercely, and glanced at each other with Lu Ling on the side.

"There is nowhere to find the iron shoes!" Lu Ling also sneered: "When I flipped Wangjia Village, I couldn't find Gu Qingcheng's relatives, but I didn't expect her weakness to be automatically sent to the door!" ”

"Gu Qingcheng is favored, red through half the sky, and Niangniang has given her a handle, let's kill her easily." Lu Wang said, "She herself is not afraid of death, but her relatives, she will scruples." Now those dusty relatives are afraid that they have washed their necks and are waiting for us! ”

Lu Zuo Zhaoyi has always been coerced by Gu Tingcheng, and now she quit her relatives in advance, and she said that she would return the letter after the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Lu Zuo Zhaoyi ostensibly promised to wait for the Mid-Autumn Festival, but the letter was in Gu Tingcheng's hands, where did she still have such patience?

And Lu Wang and his sister Lu Qingluo are sharing weal and woe, and they have already sent people to Yixintang Medical Lodge to blend into the refugee group, closely watching Gu Qingcheng's dynamics, hoping to find her weakness.

I couldn't find anyone who sent someone to her hometown, but now that I finally waited, would I let go of such an opportunity?

As long as her relatives are caught, Gu Qingcheng will obediently return the letters, and then destroy her.

When Lu Wang heard the report, he was naturally overjoyed, and immediately asked Lu Ling to secretly take people and go to Yixintang overnight to arrest Gu Qingcheng and her relatives.

It is also thanks to Gu Tingcheng that Gu Qingcheng is in the medical house tonight, if Grandpa Tie is alone in the medical house, they have just traveled a long way and slept to death, I am afraid that they would have already fallen into their way.

Because of the arrival of Grandpa Tie and them, Gu Qingcheng missed the master and the nurse so much that he could hardly close his eyes.

In the middle of the night, he heard the sound of dense footsteps running briskly far away from Yixintang, and Gu Tingcheng knew that something was wrong.

Such sneaky footsteps in the dark night, and listening to the footsteps is a light skill, it will never be the common people, it must be their own enemies.

Listening closely, there were as many as twenty or thirty people coming.

Tough with them, even if they add Grandpa Tie, Aunt Shangguan and Ah Qi, they are so good at martial arts that they can barely cope with it.

But there are so many ordinary people on the other side of the greenhouse, some old and some young, they grab some people casually, and they have to abandon their weapons and surrender.

His mind was racing, and he didn't turn on the light, so he quickly got up and touched Grandpa Tie and Aunt Shangguan's room.

Grandpa Tie and Aunt Shangguan are sleeping soundly.

Gu Tingcheng asked them to get up quietly, and let Feihong Feiyan quietly wake up the medical girls, and everyone took care of the Chengcheng's room and hid in the secret passage.

Gu Qingcheng was the last to enter the secret passage, and before entering, she released a ringing arrow from the back window.

The Ringing Arrow burst into a red flame in the air.

It was an emergency distress signal that Tuoba had left her.

The guards left behind before Tuoba were led by Ling Yun and had been secretly protecting in the bamboo forest, and since cutting down the bamboo forest to build a greenhouse, Ling Yun and the guards retreated to the back mountain farther away.

But as long as Yixintang was in danger, Gu Qingcheng fired an arrow, and they flew immediately.

Lu Ling, who was pretending to be a man in black, led a group of killers, and originally wanted to find out the terrain and then break into Yixintang to arrest people, but he didn't expect to see arrows shot inside.

That was clearly a distress signal.

That is, they were exposed!

Is it Gu Qingcheng's vigilance, or is there any master in Yixintang?

Lu Ling said in his heart that even if Gu Qingcheng asked for help, there would still be a period of time when the rescuers arrived.

The opportunity is fleeting, he wants to take advantage of this short opportunity to bring people in and arrest Gu Qingcheng and her relatives first.

Wielding their silver swords, they forcibly split open the door of the Ichishindo and broke in.

I searched room to room, but I didn't see a single figure.

Could it be that they actually flew away?

At this time, the sound of strong and powerful footsteps had quickly spread from far to near, surrounding Yixintang.

Lu Ling knew that the rescuers were coming in an instant, so he stomped his feet and shouted: "Withdraw!" ”

He led the group of people who had just exited Yixin Hall, and in the compound, Ling Yun had already led someone to intercept them.

And Gu Tingcheng in the house also took Grandpa Tie and Shangguan Feixue Tie Dan Feihong Feiyan to kill them, and they should be combined inside and outside, but surrounded Lu Ling and them.

Lu Ling was very familiar with Tuoba's guards, and Ling Yun and the guards were in a hurry, and they didn't hide their faces, and Lu Ling recognized them as Tuoba's guards at a glance.

He never expected that Tuoba would send people nearby to protect Gu Qingcheng day and night.

Gu Tingcheng was Lingyun's savior, and he knew that Gu Tingcheng was not only the county lord of Anping, but the princess of Gaoyang.

The guards admired Gu Tingcheng from the bottom of their hearts, Ling Yun was the head of the guards, and his martial arts were the highest, in order to protect Gu Tingcheng, he actually killed him.

Lu Ling is also the head of the killers, and Ling Yun is on the same page with him.

After all, Lu Ling's martial arts were slightly better than Ling Yun, and Ling Yun soon showed his upper hand.

But he didn't care about his injury, he only wrapped around Lu Ling tightly, such a lifeless style of play, but not to be underestimated!

Lu Ling saw that Ling Yun was not only difficult, but the other guards who came to the rescue were also all strong in martial arts, and they actually killed the dead soldiers he brought, and there was not much left.

He was even more anxious!

Maybe Tuoba will arrive soon when he sees the signal flare, and as soon as they are exposed, the entire Lu family will definitely be finished!

Seeing that the situation was not good, he had no intention of fighting, and just wanted to flee quickly.

So he roared, and the wind swept away the fallen leaves ruthlessly, like a divine dragon swinging its tail and slashing Ling Yun fiercely, forcing Ling Yun back, and struggling with the killer to open a hole in the direction of the greenhouse.

Then he ran into the greenhouse and grabbed more than a dozen ordinary people sleeping on the ground, and one by one the killers put swords on the necks of the people to threaten them.

Lu Ling lowered his voice and shouted, "Quickly retreat, otherwise you will kill them!" ”

Ling Yun was injured in the chest and was bleeding profusely, but he was surrounded by guards to intercept him.

At this moment, he didn't know whether to retreat or not, and when he was hesitating, Lu Ling waved his knife quickly, and immediately slaughtered a person as a warning.

The common man was divided, and his head rolled to the ground like a turnip.

Immediately, his quick knife was put on the neck of a common man.

"Help! ……”

When the common people saw the swords that were shining brightly, and that they had killed a man, and that the head was rolling off and blood was flowing all over the ground, they immediately cried out in fright.

The other civilians, who were stabbed by their swords around their necks, also cried out in fright.

People ran for their lives, and the greenhouses were in chaos.

The people who fought on both sides stopped for a moment.

"A dog thief who sneaks in the middle of the night and doesn't dare to see people!" Ling Yun couldn't help but be angry: "You can't run away!" ”

The rest of the guards surrounded them again.

The guards were about to raise their swords to capture the black-clad masked killers, when Lu Ling's butcher's knife was raised again, seeing that another innocent person's life was hanging by a thread, being slaughtered by the villains.

Gu Qingcheng suddenly shouted, "Wait! ”

Ling Yun said in a low voice: "County Lord, don't let the tiger return to the mountain!" ”

Gu Qingcheng glanced at Ling Yunren's wound, and suddenly took out a needle to stop the bleeding for him.

looked at the person who raised the knife as the leader, and said awe-inspiringly: "Let the people go, let's go!" ”

After a pause, he warned coldly: "If you dare to hurt them in the slightest, this is your burial place!" ”

Ling Yun and the guards didn't dare to push the murderer too hard.

Lu Ling's knife was still on the neck of the common man, and the rest of the killers also grabbed the common people and retreated, until they thought that they would not dare to catch up with Gu Qingcheng, so they abandoned the common people and fled.

Lu Ling escaped from Yixintang with the surviving killer.

Those killers thought they had finally escaped, but they all fell victim to the poison darts that Lu Ling unexpectedly fired.

"Why? ......" They stared at Lu Ling as they fell to the ground.

"Dead people don't reveal secrets!" Lu Ling said coldly.

He quickly wiped their necks one by one, confirming that the killers were completely dead, and he was relieved.

Maybe Tuoba will lead his troops to kill in a blink of an eye, and when the time comes, it will be difficult for him to escape with these injured killers.

Only by killing them, he alone, will it be easy to get out.

He killed the dead soldiers raised by Lu Wang, immediately took off his night clothes, wiped the blood from his sword, and was about to leave.

Suddenly, the sound of hurricane-like horses' hooves was heard, and it was Tuoba who was rushing towards Yixintang with a large number of people and horses.

Lu Ling was shocked and quickly fled.

I was also secretly glad that I had just made a decision, otherwise I would not have been able to escape with these injured people.

He was agile and strong in martial arts, and before Tuoba's men and horses were about to start encircling the vicinity of Yixintang, he fled and quietly sneaked back to Lufu.

Such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity was still missed, not only did he not catch Gu Qingcheng's relatives, but he also stole chickens and rice, and lost those dead soldiers who had worked so hard to cultivate.

"Is it Tuoba?" Lu Wang only gritted his teeth with hatred: "When did Tuoba hook up with Gu Qingcheng?!" ”

"At the birthday banquet of the ancestors, they were kind to me, and I could see that they had a problem." Lu Ling said angrily.

Lu Wang slammed on the table again, gritted his teeth and said: "No wonder, Gu Qingcheng is so determined to quit Yu'er, it turns out that they have already hooked up and become adulterous!" ”

"Big brother, do you want to tell Yu'er about this?" Lu Ling frowned and asked.

Lu Wang thought for a long time, shook his head slightly, and said, "Don't be anxious." ”

“…… Why? Lu Ling asked puzzled.

"Yu Er is infatuated with that Gu Chengcheng, and now tell him that it will only make Yu Er and Tuoba Sandpiper fight, and at that time, it will be the king of Dongping who will benefit." Lu Wang's old plan is calculated.

Lu Ling said indignantly:

However, Tuoba was so nervous about Gu Chengcheng that not only did he send guards to guard the neighborhood day and night, but as soon as he received the signal flare, he also brought people to Pegasus.

From this point of view, their adultery did not happen overnight! Thinking about it, I am afraid that if it is Gu Tingcheng or Yu'er's doll relatives, they will hook up and commit adultery.

This polar wolf doesn't take King Nan'an, the Eighth Emperor Uncle, in his eyes at all! ”

Lu Wang thought about it for a long time, and then sighed: "That's it, Gu Tingcheng is red-faced, not only hooking up with Tuoba, but also seducing Your Majesty." Don't be such a demon! Can't let the love of children affect Yu'er's good future, Yu'er and her doll kiss, it's good to leave early! ”

Here, Gu Qingcheng could only let people bury the people who were killed, and when they wanted to compensate their families, they refused to ask for it.

said that these were all accidents, and the county lord could not be blamed.

Gu Tingcheng was even more sad, and after appeasing the people, he and Grandpa Tie left the greenhouse and returned to Yixintang.

While ordering the doctor to heal the wounded guards, he saw Lingyun standing outside the pass with his injuries waiting for Tuoba's arrival.

Gu Tingcheng persuaded: "Lingyun, you are already injured, you should hurry in, and I will stitch up your wound first." ”

Ling Yun shook his head: "The county lord has stopped the bleeding for his subordinates, and the wound is no longer serious." The subordinates were derelict in their duties and failed to catch the murderers, so they had to wait for His Royal Highness King Gaoyang to come and deal with them. ”

"Don't have a tendon, we can go to the house and wait for Your Highness while healing." Gu Qingcheng said, "Besides, you are not derelict in your duty, at the very least, you drove away the murderer." ”

Seeing that Ling Yun was still immovable, Gu Qingcheng feigned anger and said, "Don't you listen to the words of this county lord?" ”

Only then did Ling Yun say respectfully: "No, county lord." ”

He still carefully left the uninjured guards to wait for King Gaoyang outside, and he followed Gu Chengcheng into the inner hall to heal his injuries.

And Tuoba really heard the signal flare from Yixintang, and with a monstrous rage, he led Zhan Ying and them to gallop over.

While he was still on the road, he saw Lu Ling's murderous dead soldiers.

Tuoba asked people to surround the vicinity and search, and asked people to check who the dead were, and then he led people straight to Yixintang in a hurry.

Tuoba Pegasus came to Yixintang, and when he saw the guards right away, he shouted and asked, "How is the county lord?!" ”

"Don't worry, the general, the county lord is fine!" The guards immediately reported it.

Tuoba ran non-stop until he reached the door of the lobby of Yixintang before he leaped down and plunged directly into it.

Gu Qingcheng had just stitched up the wound of Ling Yun who was lying on the bed, and his hands were covered with blood.

Tuoba couldn't see the other people in the room at all, only Gu Qingcheng with blood on his hands.

He helped Gu Qingcheng, stared at her tightly, and asked with a pale face, "Didn't you say it's okay?" How is the blood of one hand?! ”

"I'm really fine." Gu Qingcheng smiled lightly, raised his eyes to look at Ling Yun lying on the hospital bed, and signaled that the blood on his hand was Ling Yun's.

Tuoba turned on the light, looked up and down, and saw that she was indeed safe and sound, and the blood on her hands was not hers, so he hugged her into his arms as if no one was around, and sighed heavily: "I'm scared to death!" ”

Gu Qingcheng saw that Tuoba was so nervous, there were so many people in the house!

She was a little embarrassed.

Gently push him away.

Only then did Tuoba see that there were other people in the room besides Ling Yun.

Gu Qingcheng then introduced him to Tuoba: "Come on, I've seen my Grandpa Tie and Aunt Shangguan." ”

In fact, as early as Grandpa Tie and Aunt Shangguan came to Yixintang, Tuoba received a report, and he also knew that Gu Tingcheng's relatives in Butterfly Valley had come out.

Tuoba hurriedly met his seniors with the etiquette of a junior: "I've seen Grandpa Tie, I've seen Aunt Shangguan." ”

Grandpa Tie and Aunt Shangguan saw that Gu Tingcheng was so intimate with the people who came, and everyone who came was a dragon and a phoenix, and the instruments were extraordinary, so they must not be ordinary people.

"Little Allure, this is ......" Grandpa Tie seemed to understand in his heart.

"Grandpa Tie, Aunt Shangguan, this is General Gaoyang Wang Feiying." Gu Qingcheng hurriedly introduced them.

“…… Oh, it's the general of Gaoyang Wang Feiying, who has admired His Highness's prestige for a long time, it should be our gift to His Highness! After Grandpa Tie was slightly stunned, he hurriedly saw Tuoba, "I have seen His Royal Highness King Gaoyang." ”

"I've seen His Royal Highness King Gaoyang." Shangguan Feixue also hurriedly saluted.

"You are the elders of Allure, so you don't have to see this king." Tuoba hurriedly reached out and told them to get up.

In this way, Grandpa Tie and Shangguan Feixue both knew it.

They glanced at each other, and the smile on their faces seemed to be a little tangled, a little bitter, and it was an expression that Gu Qingcheng couldn't understand.

Seeing that Gu Qingcheng was really safe and sound, Tuoba was also relieved.

Ling Yun, who had just stitched up his wound, turned over and got out of bed, knelt in front of Tuoba and arched his hand: "General Gaoyang Wang, his subordinates are derelict in their duties, but His Highness punishes him. ”

When Tuoba saw Ling Yun's wounds, he knew that Ling Yun had done his best.

So he helped him up and said warmly: "The county lord is safe and sound, you have not been derelict in your duty, and this king knows that you have done your best." ”

At this time, Zhan Ying came, and the killers who were killed on the road seemed to have been killed by their companions.

They weren't the killers who chased down Tuoba in the first place, they all seemed to be dead soldiers who had been raised by others.

But there is no evidence of death, and there is no trace.

They fell silent for a moment.

"Little Allure, who do you think those killers are?" Grandpa Tie asked Gu Qingcheng with a solemn face.

"Lao Tie," Shangguan Feixue didn't wait for Gu Chengcheng to answer, and already said, "That must be the enemy who wants to put Allure to death!" ”

"Grandpa Tie, Aunt Shangguan, as soon as you came out, so many killers came." Gu Qingcheng muttered, "They came prepared, probably coming at you, trying to catch you and blackmail me!" ”

"Stealing chickens doesn't make rice, how can we catch them if they want to!" Shangguan Feixue said hatefully.

Grandpa Tie said worriedly: "Little Allure City, if we become your constraints, let's leave and go back to Butterfly Valley, don't burden you." ”

"Lao Tie, we are not ordinary people," Shangguan Feixue shook his head instead: "There are so many bad people who want to harm Allure, she is alone, we should stay, at least we are here, and we can help her!" ”

Tuoba saw that Grandpa Tie and Aunt Shangguan were so worried about Allure, so he comforted: "Grandpa Tie, Aunt Shangguan, don't worry, this king will definitely send more people to ensure the safety of Allure." ”

Gu Tingcheng also smiled and said: "Actually, Aunt Shangguan is right, with you here, there are more helpers in Allure." ”

Shangguan Feixue just said that Allure is lonely, but now that I think about it, with His Royal Highness King Gaoyang, Allure is not fighting alone.

Looking at King Gao Yang, he smiled a little embarrassedly.

Grandpa Tie was still worried: "The enemy is dark and I am clear, and I can't prevent it." King Gaoyang, Xiao Chengcheng, can't you think of who is behind this scene? ”

"There are too many people who want to put the city to death." Gu Qingcheng smiled bitterly, "For a while, I really don't know who it is." ”

Grandpa Tie and Aunt Shangguan were even more worried.

Tuoba kept frowning and groaning, but at this time he said to Ling Yun: "Ling Yun, you tell all the speeches about the process of your fight. Especially the leader you are playing against, take his time to unleash his moves. ”

"No!" Lingyun promised.

1510 slowly rehearsed his moves to fight with the leader.

When Ling Yun practiced that man's last fierce move to sweep away the leaves like a dragon swinging its tail and hurting him, Tuoba Huo Ran said: "Return to the dragon and slash!" ”

"Back to the dragon?" Ling Yun also suddenly realized: "Your Highness's meaning is ......"

Ling Yun didn't dare to say the name of the suspicious person.

"Lu Ling!" Tuoba said coldly.

"Lu Ling?" Although Gu Tingcheng was a little stunned, he was also expected, "Che Cavalry General Lu Ling, Lu Zuo Zhaoyi's younger brother? ”

"Returning to the dragon is Lu Ling's mastery." Tuoba bowed slightly: "The dragon saw the head but not the tail, and he was killed when he looked back!" ”

"I have heard that Lu Zuo Zhaoyi's younger brother Lu Ling is strong in martial arts, and even Ling Yun was severely injured by him, and he really deserves his reputation." Gu Qingcheng also nodded.

"People who act behind the scenes usually hide their martial arts, but at critical moments, they can't help but use their true martial arts." Tuoba analyzed, "It seems that at that time, Lu Ling was in a hurry to escape. ”

Gu Qingcheng nodded and said: "Lu Ling, they didn't know that you sent someone to protect them, but when they saw me firing a signal flare, and seeing Ling Yun and them rushing over so quickly, they were probably afraid that you would also hear the letter and rush over, so they hurriedly retreated." ”

Ling Yun also thought back to the figure of the black-clothed masked man, nodded and said, "Thinking about it this way, the figure and accent of the leader are indeed like the chariot general Lu Ling. Although, he deliberately lowered his voice at that time. ”

"Return to the dragon and kill with one move." Tuoba looked at the wound on Ling Yun's chest, "You were just stabbed by him, and you can't die, you're already lucky!" ”

Ling Yun suddenly regretted it: "But he is incompetent, and he failed to catch the general of the chariot on the spot, and he can't be convicted of his crimes!" ”

"Now that the fox's tail is exposed, there's always a chance to catch him!" Tuoba said coldly.

After a pause, he sneered again: "Lu Ling has taken leave from General Ben in the past two days, saying that his sister Lu Zuo Zhaoyi is in poor health and wants to visit the palace. And Grandpa Tie and Aunt Shangguan happened to come out at this time, which also happened to give him the opportunity to commit murder! ”

Gu Tingcheng thought that Lu Zuo Zhaoyi couldn't wait to get the letter back, and also smiled lightly: "Lu Zuo Zhaoyi is afraid that he is already an ant on a hot pot now, and he can't wait to put Allure to death!" ”

"Either way, it's not safe here." Tuoba said to Gu Qingcheng, "The killer can't be guarded, you have to be more careful in the future, and if there is danger, send me a flare immediately." ”

Gu Tingcheng nodded silently: "Don't worry, Allure is a nine-life cat and will not die easily." ”

Tuoba asked Lingyun to increase his manpower, and arranged for people to secretly guard near Yixin Hall as usual, and in the end, he left with a dignified face.

After Gu Qingcheng sent Tuoba away, he returned to the inner hall, and Grandpa Tie asked, "King Gaoyang is gone?" ”

Gu Qingcheng nodded, and couldn't help but smile sweetly on his face.

Shangguan Feixue and Grandpa Tie looked at each other, their faces quite solemn.

Shangguan Feixue asked straight to the point: "...... Allure, are you with King Gaoyang? ”

Gu Qingcheng nodded a little shyly: "Yes, we are already in one place." ”

The expressions on the faces of Grandpa Tie and Shangguan Feixue became even more weird.

"Grandpa Tie, Aunt Shangguan, don't you like King Gaoyang?" Gu Qingcheng looked at their solemn and complicated faces and asked in a shallow voice.

“…… Oh no, the people that Little Allure likes, how could we not like it. Grandpa Tie hurriedly laughed.

"That's right, we're just worried about the King of Gaoyang, whether he will be as good to Allure as ever in the future." Shangguan Feixue also forced a smile and said.

It turned out that Grandpa Tie and Aunt Shangguan were worried that Tuoba would not treat them well.

"Grandpa Tie, Aunt Shangguan, don't worry. Tuoba was really nice to me. Gu Tingcheng hurriedly comforted them, "In this life, Allure is determined to follow him." ”

In fact, their fate is not limited to this life?

It's just that I can't explain too much to Grandpa Tie and Aunt Shangguan.

Gu Qingcheng then asked them to take care of themselves and Tie Dan carefully.

And they all went to sleep.

In fact, at this time, it was almost dawn.
