[800โ small รท said โ.], wonderful free reading without pop-ups!
All the sounds, all the images were wiped out in the lightning. Even a person with high martial arts skills cannot withstand such a huge gathering of power. If there were no such hiding place, all of them would be buried in the Gu family.
Gu Changming recovered a little first, there was a rumbling roar in his ears, his eyes opened but he couldn't see the real thing, only mottled and weirdly colored lines were drawing, he struggled to stand up against the wall and go to see the situation of the others. As soon as the palm of his hand touched the wall, he realized that he still had strength, and fell to the ground softly again.
He knew very well that it would not work like this, and if he was like this, then the few people with poor physical strength would probably be even worse.
Gu Changming clenched his teeth, letting the remaining true qi flow slowly in his body, urging his limbs to return to normal, and then stood up against the wall again. He couldn't tell the difference between east and west, north and south, and he couldn't see where the others were. I wanted to open my mouth to call out my name, but my throat seemed to be blocked by a large ball of cotton wool, and I couldn't say a word.
What about the Phoenix? What about the fruit? What about willow bamboo snow! There are also Qu Jingshan, Xiao Hulu and Dai Mianshan, he put all the people who could get together, and finally met each other, but it was equivalent to giving the opponent a big bargain.
Gu Changming trembled his legs and took three steps forward with great difficulty, without touching anyone else or hearing anyone calling for help. He panicked, indescribably depressed, and felt difficult to breathe every time.
Suddenly, there was a clattering sound from overhead. Although Gu Changming couldn't see, he subconsciously raised his head to look. His shoulders were clenched by a tremendous force, and his feet lifted off the ground and rose into the air, and someone salvaged him out of the underground chamber alone.
Gu Changming didn't want to leave at all, but the strength of his whole body was really limited, and his shoulders were imprisoned, so it was not easy to get out. He blinked his eyes vigorously a few times, trying to recover his eyesight as soon as possible, but it was dark in front of him, and some kind of wrapping cloth was covering him, and even the last bit of light was cut off.
When the wrapping cloth pounced, with a faint aroma, even though Gu Changming was very experienced in holding his breath, he still couldn't control the effect of the medicine that fell directly on his face, and after a trance, he fell into a deep sleep, although his fists were clenched, he never let go.
Gu Changming didn't know how long he had been asleep, it was a long darkness, without any dreams, quiet as if it was permanent.
Until he was able to open his eyes on his own and found that his eyes could see, this discovery made him worried, I am afraid it was not as simple as being in a coma with a stick of incense. Under that kind of impact, it will take at least half a day to recover, according to his physique.
If he lies here for most of the day, then the lives of the rest of the people are in danger.
"Are you awake?" Someone heard him make a sound and walked slowly.
Gu Changming sat up suddenly: "Father! โ
Gu Wuduo changed his robe, and looked back to his usual demeanor, looking at him indifferently: "Do you know how long you have been sleeping?" โ
"Three-and-a-half to four hours." Gu Changming didn't really know, he just relied on his body's intuition.
"It's good, despite the hard hit, the ability to discern is not bad at all." Gu Wuduo smiled slightly and said, "When you saw me, you were a little scared? That's an expression you won't have after the age of five. โ
"Father, what about the others?" Gu Changming got up again, he was originally lying on a couch, his hands and feet were not bound, and he stood up easily.
"You've been injured like this, don't you care about your injuries first?" Gu Wuduo's palm pressed on his shoulder, and there was no force, but Gu Changming gritted his teeth, and he was pressed back inch by inch. He used to think that his martial arts were good, although he couldn't win against his father, at least he would not miss within a hundred moves.
At this moment, Gu Changming only understood that his father had left too much leeway, and he was never an opponent.
Fortunately, Gu Wuduo saw him sitting firmly, and quickly withdrew his hand: "You raise it first, and then take care of the life and death of others." โ
"Father, those people are none other than others." Gu Changming's chest was suppressed with a faint pain, but there was something that had to be said, "They are all my companions and my friends." โ
Gu Wuduo seemed to have heard some big joke, and raised an eyebrow to look down at him: "So you think Qu Jingshan is also your companion and friend?" โ
"Qu Jingshan was originally ordered to act, and his Qi Kunmen is also directly under the emperor's command, although his family has a big business and some ambitions over the years, it is the emperor who comes to decide whether his life and death are right or wrong, not us." Gu Changming's gaze met him directly, without the slightest fear, "Father, if you say that you are overstepping, why are you not." โ
Gu Wuduo raised one hand high, obviously angered by Gu Changming's words, and wanted to slap it over, but he held back it again, and smiled instead of being angry: "Are you accusing me?" โ
"Don't dare, my father has a mirror in his heart." Gu Changming waited for his father to withdraw his hand, and asked unrelentingly, "Are they still alive, right, they are all still alive, right?" โ
Gu Wuduo squinted at him: "Do you know why you are lying here with a good standing and almost unharmed?" โ
After Gu Changming woke up, he didn't have time to weigh the condition of his body, and after listening to his father's words, he re-activated the true qi in his body, and found that compared with before he was stunned, instead of regressing, it was stable and powerful, even exceeding his usual state. Surprised, he adjusted it again and found that it was correct.
"Father lost the internal force to heal me?" Gu Changming should be sure, but this situation makes him judge.
"You're my only son, and I'm going to watch you die?" Gu Wuduo asked rhetorically again, "And your character, I know it very well, and all your reactions are also within my expectations." โ
Looking at the angle from which Gu Wuduo was standing, Gu Changming's eyebrows and eyes were like mountains and mountains, heroic and compelling, in front of a powerful opponent, he didn't see retreat, he didn't see panic, he couldn't help but secretly praise two sentences in his heart, worthy of being his Gu Wuduo's son.
"Father, I know it's hard to ask to see them, and I think at least one word is right to see if they're all alive." Gu Changming didn't have any bargaining chips in his hands, and all the situations fell to his father's side, he was a complete loser. Because of this, there is no worse situation, and he can try harder.
Every point earned is lucky.
"Alive, it is like this at the moment, and there is no guarantee in the future." Gu Wuduo was really relieved, instead of going-for-tat to the end, it was better to give Gu Changming a chance to breathe first. Only when Gu Changming saw the so-called hope could the two of them continue on the same path.
Gu Changming's tense back loosened slightly, for him, this was the biggest good news in a desperate situation.
"It's not just because you're my son that I spent my true energy to save you." Gu Wuduo didn't like to see the joy that couldn't be hidden from the corners of his eyebrows and eyes, what kind of people are they, they deserve to be like this!
"I know, because my father still wants to keep me and join forces to push the Nine Heavens Drum plan to the top." Gu Changming was very, very calm, his expression was in agreement with his heart, "Father shouldn't have talked to Phoenix yet, she is also one of the plans to stay, and she can't be harmed either, especially here." โ
Gu Changming deliberately tapped his temples twice, and looked at his father slightly provocatively. He had already thought very clearly just now, after the end of the road, all the countermeasures were the chances of getting back.
"What do you want to say?" Sure enough, even a cautious and cautious person like Gu Wuduo would be led by him to the rhythm.
"Phoenix listens to you or listens to me, presumably my father knows it very well." The corners of Gu Changming's mouth also curved, "Father will say that there are many ways to make people obedient and obedient, but among the many ways, most of them will hurt here." You know, she has suffered a lot of injuries over the years, and that kind of talent is the most fragile thing. Hu Min'er is so powerful, once her heart is dead, even Jin Luo Daxian can't save it. Phoenix is her daughter, and most of her personality is also rather broken than broken. โ
"Presumptuous!" Gu Wuduo swept all the porcelain bottles on the desk to the ground, and turned his head away violently.
Gu Changming calculated that he was not good at doing it to himself, and he would definitely go out to dissipate his qi, and he was waiting for this moment. He immediately got rid of the weak appearance just now, stood up energetically, and did not rush out, but first looked at the furnishings in the house, and then pushed the closed window, and pushed it twice, but did not move at all, for fear that it would be difficult to open it because it had been watered with molten iron outside.
He stared at the door of the room where his father had left again, and then he retreated to the edge of the bed, and sat down untouched again.
The door of the house was pushed open again, it was not Gu Wuduo's footsteps, this person's martial arts were much worse, his feet were weak, and it was difficult to take a step.
Gu Changming didn't get up, still staring at the door.
"Gu Changming, if you are not injured, come and help me, this is all your father's doing, and you are also responsible!" The shouting of Dai Guozi came from outside the door, and it really didn't look like he was hurt.
Gu Changming moved much faster this time, and in a blink of an eye, he came to the door, grabbed the fruit's arm with one hand, and brought the person in with his strength. Immediately disappointed, he found that there was only one fruit outside the door, and no one else.
"Don't look at it, just let me out." Dai Guozi snorted angrily, "I can't get out outside, I tried, those people's martial arts are too high." I was swept back before I could get to me. What's more, everyone else is in your father's hands, and we can't take it lightly. โ
Guozi walked to the table, poured himself a cup of tea and poured it down, and poured three cups in a row, Gu Changming saw the wounds on his face, as well as the tattered coat, and he didn't know how many injuries there were underneath: "How is your situation?" โ
"I can't die yet." Dai Guozi put down the teacup and looked at him seriously, "So you didn't compromise with your father, you still went all the way with us, right?" โ
