Chapter 444: Sacrifice
The cold wind is cold, the white silk is fluttering, and the separation between life and death is ethereal.
Alone, alone, who laughs with the mortal world
In the Divine Weapon Pavilion, the sound of crying came slowly, and the death of Bai Fengkui, the master of the Divine Soldier Pavilion, was already a shock to the entire capital, and the whole country mourned.
When Gu Yixuan came back this time, he was approaching the women's wall, and he saw a group of plain clothes wearing linen and filial piety on the wall.
Tears dripped from the corners of his eyes, silently, but the words were desolate and lonely.
Gu Yixuan got out of the carriage, and everyone on the women's wall saw his figure, and their eyes showed joy, and then a wave of sorrow surged up.
"The Young Pavilion Master is back!
The heavy door was slowly lowered, and the door frame smashed to the ground with a muffled sound, just like at that time, the bad news hammered into Gu Yixuan's heart.
With heavy steps, Gu Yixuan slowly stepped into the Divine Weapon Pavilion. The oppressive breath made him unable to breathe comfortably, and he looked up at the beams of the room wrapped in white silk, and his heart was sad.
Lin Feng and the others followed behind Gu Yixuan without saying a word. They all understand that Gu Yixuan is now in a time of sorrow, and he needs to be quiet alone.
"Young Pavilion Master. When the attendants saw Gu Yixuan, they saluted him one after another.
Everyone lined up neatly on both sides, leaving a path for Gu Yixuan, leading straight to the main hall, where Bai Fengkui's spirit card was standing.
When he came to the door, Gu Yixuan suddenly stopped. The coffin in front of him lay quietly in the center of the hall, and a cool breeze gently blew, bringing up the white silk fluttering.
In front of the coffin, Bai Fengkui's spirit card was standing on the table.
Bai Fengkui, the third-generation Divine Weapon Pavilion Master, had these words neatly engraved on the spirit card, which made Gu Yixuan's eyes hurt a little.
Mother. Gu Yixuan opened his mouth and wanted to call out these two words, but the words reached his lips and could not be revealed.
People seem to be out of control, and they can't speak at all.
The attendants bowed their heads and knelt upright in front of the spiritual seat, and the maids on the side handed a futon and placed it next to the coffin.
It was a futon for himself, Gu Yixuan saw it in his eyes, and he knew it in his heart.
"Mother. For a long time, the words that had been brewing in his heart slowly spit out, raised his feet and stepped into the threshold, knelt down on the futon, and kowtowed towards Bai Fengkui's spiritual position.
"Yixuan, the festival mourns and changes. Qi Musheng and the others bowed towards the spiritual position, saw the sad look on Gu Yixuan's face, and comforted softly.
"Young Pavilion Master. Miss Fu Jia, Fu Huaisang, Lord Yang of the Ministry of Officials, and Lord Shen of the Criminal Department are here. As soon as the attendant finished speaking, he saw three familiar figures being led in by the attendant.
Gu Yixuan took a deep breath, pressed down the surging tide in his heart, got up, and looked ahead.
"Shenwu Jun. Fu Huaisang walked between the two and stepped forward to salute Gu Yixuan.
"The matter of the White Pavilion Lord is indeed sad and lamentable. "The three of them had actually come to pay their respects once before, and today when they heard that Gu Yixuan was back, they came to visit again.
After all, Gu Yixuan has a lot of friendship with them. The pain of losing a loved one, Fu Huaisang and Yang Ming have a deep understanding of it, and they understand the pain.
"Your kindness, Gu Mou is clear and grateful. Gu Yixuan nodded to everyone in front of him and thanked him, then paused for a moment and said to Luo Linxuan: "What is the reason for my mother's death, please tell Senior Brother Luo." ”
"Qinglongjun was invited by me halfway, and I may not know all about the beginning and end of this matter, so let me explain it to you. Qi Musheng told Gu Yixuan the whole thing from beginning to end.
"Thank you, Second Brother Qi. During listening to Qi Musheng's narration, Gu Yixuan had already sorted out the ins and outs of the future. After Qi Musheng finished speaking, he bowed his head slightly and thanked him.
No wonder in the palace just now, the emperor would say that he couldn't live with his mother, because of the secret letter.
"The secret letter I just mentioned, Second Brother Qi, can you give Yi Xuan a look?" Since it is a list that his mother wants to save with her life, he naturally wants to take a look.
Qi Musheng nodded, took out the secret letter from his arms, and handed it to Gu Yixuan.
"Most of the people on this list are reasonable, but a few of them are beyond my expectations. Looking at the names of Fang Qian and Han Feiyang written in black ink on the letterhead, Gu Yixuan nodded, but when his eyes swept over the names below, Gu Yixuan was extremely puzzled.
Fu Huaisang, Shen Xinci, and... Looking up at the three people in front of him, Gu Yixuan's face was embarrassed, Shen Wei and Yang Ming....
Why? Gu Yixuan looked at Qi Musheng, but saw that he also had a serious face.
"Second Brother Qi, has this list been replaced?" folded the secret letter and put it in the envelope, and when Gu Yixuan handed it back to Qi Musheng, he whispered in his ear and asked in a volume that no one else could hear.
"This secret letter was found in the hidden place of the White Pavilion Lord's cuff, so it should not be fake. Qi Musheng replied.
Gu Yixuan pondered for a moment, and finally nodded silently.
"If that is the case, let us clear up the list of people one by one. However, the order of cleaning up should be adjusted. Gu Yixuan said.
"How?"
"After Yixuan thinks clearly, how about you decide with Second Brother Qi?" Gu Yixuan's suggestion made Qi Musheng nod.
"Brother Gu, what to do next, you just have to arrange, we promise to be with you!" No matter what Gu Yixuan wants to do, Lin Feng will definitely support it.
"There's no hurry. Gu Yixuan looked at him and shook his head slightly: "There are many things now, waiting for Gu to take care of them, and after these are properly handled, I will make the next step." "The Divine Weapon Pavilion is in chaos now, and without Bai Fengkui, it is up to him to pick up a heavy burden.
"By the way, why didn't you see Elder Qi?" Gu Yixuan looked left and right, this old butler of the Divine Weapon Pavilion, he hadn't seen him since he came back, which really surprised Gu Yixuan.
"The young pavilion master, Qi Lao and Sister Red Tears all went with the pavilion master. The little maid standing on the side stepped forward and replied to Gu Yixuan.
The already heavy heart fell a heavy blow again. Unexpectedly, even Qi Lao went.
Han Feiyang... The enmity between you and my Divine Weapon Pavilion should be incompatible.
The fists were clenched, and a pair of eagle falcon eyes were covered with a chill.
"Oh yes. Behind him, Qi Musheng's voice made Gu Yixuan turn around.
"Second Brother Qi thought of something?" Gu Yixuan asked.
"Now that you're back, go and see the old girl. ”
Senior Sister?Gu Yixuan was puzzled: "What happened to Senior Sister Xi?" looked up at Luo Linxuan, but saw him hanging his head with a look of guilt.
An inexplicable feeling of uneasiness appeared in my heart: "What happened?"
His voice was low, and he was slightly angry.
"The former girl, her meridians are all broken, and her body is completely wasted..."As soon as Qi Musheng's words came out, Gu Yixuan's heart was suddenly shocked.
"How so?" asked urgently.
"Such a big thing, why didn't you say it earlier?!" Banxia was also stunned, and pulled Qi Musheng and walked towards the outside of the Divine Soldier Pavilion, and said as he walked: "Gu boy!
There is a half summer, even if it can't be treated for a while, I can help find some good methods.
Gu Yixuan also let him go. Although he was also worried about his senior sister's condition, the things in the Divine Weapon Pavilion were too complicated at the moment, and he couldn't pull away for a while.
"Senior Brother Luo, looking at your expression, it seems that the matter of Senior Sister in the past has something to do with you. Gu Yixuan has always been observant, and when he mentioned Xi Fengling's injury, how could Luo Linxuan's demeanor be ignored.
Luo Linxuan sighed and said, "Senior Sister Xi's injuries are caused by me. I... Shame on her. With that, he informed Gu Yixuan of Gong Wuji and Xingze's trip.
"Gong Wuji?is the half-demon prince born to a person of the demon clan in that Gong Clan's dynasty?!" Fu Huaisang and the three of them heard what happened clearly, that Gong Wuji, wasn't he expelled from the Gong Clan's palace a long time ago?
"Yes, it's the half-demon prince. His strength is not weak, Senior Brother Gu, I am worried that he will be unfavorable to Da Rui and His Royal Highness the Second Prince. Luo Linxuan's worries are exactly what Gu Yixuan is worried about.
Gong Wuji is not an ordinary person, he has the blood of the demon clan, he is extremely powerful, even a person who cultivates the truth, he has not been a Taoist for more than ten years, and he is not his opponent.
knew before that Xing Ze intended to find him back to take Gong Yuliu's place.
It is also unbelievable to say that after the mother of Gong Wuji, he was forced to death by Xingze's envoys, and he was also expelled from the palace because of Xingze's conspiracy. Now that Xing Ze is looking for him, he can successfully lure him back, which really makes Gu Yixuan curious, what means did this Xing Ze use.
"Xingze is a treacherous and cunning person, and the city government is also extremely deep. Gong Yuliu was unwilling to conspire with him for a long time, so he would ally with Gu. Gu Yixuan turned his back and thought carefully. Now that Gong Wuji has responded to Xingze's wooing, things have become a little tricky.
Nanling Kingdom was originally under Xingze's control, although Gong Yuliu had tried his best to hold the royal power in his hands all these years, he was still invincible to Xingze's order.
Gong Wuji's return is tantamount to knocking Gong Yuliu into a desperate situation. If he can't find a way to stabilize his position as the Nanling Sovereign, I'm afraid his life will not be guaranteed.
At that time, Nanling Kingdom fell into the hands of Gong Wuji, so Qi Musheng would have one less powerful help, and when facing Qi Yuheng, he would be weaker.
"Brother Lin, Gu needs a favor from you. Gu Yixuan faced Lin Feng.
"Whatever you want me to do, just say it. "The person in front of him please, Lin Feng will never refuse.
"Help me go to the place where Gong Yuliu flows, and ask him to go to the Divine Weapon Pavilion for a while. Gu Yixuan wrote a letter and handed it to Lin Feng: "This letter, after you see him, I will hand it over to him." ”
Lin Feng took the letter and carefully took it into his arms: "Don't worry, such a small errand is not a problem." ”
"Brother Lin. Seeing that Lin Feng was about to turn around and leave, Gu Yixuan hurriedly called him back.
"What?" looked back at Gu Yixuan: "But what else did you forget?"
"Oh, that's it, I'll talk to you when you come back. He wanted to talk to him about Ah Wu, but he couldn't help it, now was not the time to talk about it.
"Then I'm leaving. Gu Yixuan nodded and let him go.
