Chapter 7 Be a Gambler
What would you think if a stranger suddenly said to you in a serious way, "Child, I'm actually your own mother"?
Li Qiyu's "I am your senior sister" is essentially the same as this behavior.
Gu Chen looked at Li Qiyu with a strange expression, feeling sorry in his heart, such an amazing woman was actually sick.
Also, if it weren't for the illness and no injustice, who would dare to openly cut off the arm of a child of the Gao family with an understatement?
Li Qiyu saw his changing expression clearly, he was not annoyed, and said lazily: "Do you want to kill that Gao family ghost with your own hands in the future?" ”
Gao Jinhuan? Gu Chen was stunned, to be honest, he couldn't wait to beat Gao Duanhuan to the ground, but the reality is that no matter talent or family background, as Gao Duanhuan said, the gap between the two is one in the sky and the other is on the ground, and the distance between the two will only get bigger and bigger with time.
Even if he has never had such a strong ** in his heart, Gu Chen knows very well that this is a delusion at all.
He smiled bitterly: "Life is not always about everything you want to come true. ”
"Gao Cheng's life is just a lost dog, and after being ousted by the Qin family, he will only survive. The fifteen-year-old mid-level Demon Pattern Master is not very remarkable, a Crystal Guard of the Wave Realm can be killed, and such a Crystal Guard is all over the Empire. Li Qiyu snapped his fingers, threw out the cigarette butt at will, and said seriously: "Look, this is actually not difficult." ”
Gu Chen was speechless, and he was speechless.
The dignified Gao family was despised as a lost dog, and the fifteen-year-old Demon Pattern Master was thought that a Wave Realm Jingwei could be killed, but he didn't want to think about how many people would be attached to Gao Duhuan, and to kill Gao Duanhuan was to be the enemy of the entire Gao family.
This is too arrogant, even the most arrogant and domineering Wei family in the north may not dare to say this.
Only a sick person would dare to say that.
"Li Yitang gave you the sword of the world and passed on your sword technique of the world, then you are his apprentice and my junior brother." Li Qiyu took Xiaobai by the hand and stood in front of Gu Chen.
Gu Chen looked up at him, and she looked down at Gu Chen.
"Come with me to the Winter Lake Courtyard, and you will surpass him."
When she said this, her expression and posture were proud and awe-inspiring, like the first light that broke through the night, piercing the darkness in an instant.
When people are in their most desperate, they should never touch hope, because that hope can turn a person into a gambler. Man is desperate for this faint hope, and the flesh is thrown into the fire of this hope, turning it into an obsession, making it burn, gambling that it can dispel the darkness for light.
It may not be good to become a success, but there is nothing left if it fails.
But Gu Chen thought that if he could enter the Winter Lake Courtyard, then he would at least have a glimmer of hope - maybe it would be impossible to kill Gao Qianhuan, but maybe he would be able to seek justice in the Gao family one day.
He just needs justice.
Hope drives people mad like gamblers, but despair itself is nothing.
Gu Chen stared at Li Qiyu, looked at her thrillingly beautiful face, and slowly called out, "Senior sister." ”
Li Qiyu nodded slightly, stretched out his hand and opened it, his slender fingers grew tender green branches, which grew rapidly, and finally turned into five rattans and tied Gu Chen's limbs and head firmly.
Li Qiyu immediately turned over and got on the horse, took out a delicate silver wine jug from his waist, unscrewed the cap, raised his head and poured a big mouthful, wiped his lips, and handed it to Gu Chen from behind.
"Take a bite?"
Gu Chen has been drinking since he was a child, and the people of the Northland are fierce, and he should be able to drink at the age of eleven. Gu Chen unceremoniously took the flask and raised his head to take a big sip.
When the wine is entered, the throat and esophagus are swept like wildfire, like a knife cut, as if the stomach is about to be melted.
What a strong wine!
Gu Chen smacked his tongue, and felt more and more that Li Qiyu was an extraordinary woman, smoking elegant cigarettes, drinking violent wine, and doing wayward things, even if she didn't have that dazzling face, she could still attract attention.
"Where is your home?"
"Gu family, Zhongcheng Mansion Anning Road, it's easy to find."
"Drive!"
The horse stepped on the snow, the flying flakes were surging, the wind was whistling in his ears, Gu Chen was hugged by Li Qiyu in his arms, and felt the two soft balls rubbing against his back slightly, with amazing elasticity, and he couldn't help but blush.
Her hair was flying in the rush, crackling like a burning fire, often hitting Gu Chen's face, dragonflies and water, making Gu Chen's face itch, and her heart was also inexplicably itchy, mixed with the fragrance of faint tobacco and alcohol smell into her nose, which made people feel ape.
Gu Chen actually hallucinated that there seemed to be an angel behind him, even if he couldn't look back and see it, he still strongly felt that her surprise was too dangerous.
Li Qiyu's equestrian skills were very exquisite, and he barely slowed down during the whole process, and soon arrived at the door of Gu's house. The Gu family was already in chaos at the moment, and people came in and out from time to time, and Gu Chen also heard his father Gu Ancheng angrily scolding from the front yard,
"You know your mistakes but you don't know your mistakes!"
- Is my father back?
"The child is incompetent, he shouldn't let the second brother fight, ruining the future of the Gu family, Dad, please punish me!" It was the voice of the eldest brother Gu Yang.
"You don't know what you're doing wrong yet! The battle was originally life and death, Ah Xuan couldn't complain about anyone, and the Gu family couldn't complain about anyone! But you actually want Ah Chen to fight in his place, shame! ”
Gu Yang shouted unconvinced: "But Dad, the third brother doesn't ...... at all."
"Shut up!"
When they were arguing, they suddenly heard the sound of horses, and the father and son of the Gu family turned their heads to look, and saw a beautiful woman who was close to the demon tightening the horse rope, and the front hooves of the white horse under her were raised, neighing with joy. In front of the woman, Gu Chen, the third son of the Gu family, was covered in blood and was seriously injured.
The two of them changed color in unison, and Gu Ancheng exclaimed, "Ah Chen!" Hurriedly stepped forward to hold the crumbling Gu Chen.
Gu Ancheng heard the news that the Gu family had been robbed and that the legs of the second son Gu Xuan had been abolished this morning, and he hurried back to the mansion in a panic, and heard Gu Chen's anger and went to chase after the Gao family brothers, and immediately sent everyone in the Gu family to chase after him, not wanting Gu Chen to be sent back by Li Qiyu, and his injuries were severe.
He immediately arranged for a private doctor to treat Gu Chen urgently, and then asked Uncle Chuan to send Gu Chen to the hospital. Thank you so much for saving Chen's life. ”
Li Qiyu was not polite, and said directly: "I have something to tell you." ”
……
……
"What, take Ah Chen into the Winter Lake Courtyard?!"
Gu Ancheng looked at Li Qiyu in surprise, he originally thought that what Li Qiyu wanted to say to him was nothing more than to ask for some thanks, but he didn't want Li Qiyu to throw out a message that shocked him extremely much.
Gu Chen not only wasted Gao Zhaolong's hands, but also met Li Qiyu, a "nobleman", and wanted to admit him to Donghu Courtyard without exception.
"Miss Li, I know Ah Chen's talent, he ...... Enough to enter the Winter Lake Courtyard? ”
"Actually, he himself has agreed." Li Qiyu said lightly: "Gu family master, I just came to inform you of this matter. As for the rest, it has nothing to do with you. ”
She didn't care about the world at all when she spoke, but Gu Chen's entry into the Winter Lake Courtyard was simply a send-off for the Gu family, Gu Ancheng couldn't wait for this to be true, so he didn't mind Li Qiyu's attitude, and laughed loudly: "Since this is the case, I will trouble Miss Li to take care of Achen in the future." ”
Li Qiyu shook his head and said, "It's me who wants to thank the head of the Gu family for taking care of my junior brother for so many years." ”
After speaking, she turned around and left, her demeanor was dashing, but Gu Ancheng's face changed slightly, staring at the back of Li Qiyu leaving, frowning and groaning for a long time.
……
Li Qiyu left Gu's house directly, came to the hospital where Gu Chen lived, and quickly found Gu Chen's ward.
There was no one in the ward, and Gu Chen should be undergoing surgery now. Li Qiyu found a stool and sat down, flipped through the free magazines of the bedside hospital, took out the wine jug by the way, and drank the wine unhurriedly.
I don't know how long later, a noisy sound came, and the movement was quite loud, and more than a dozen people from the Gu family pushed Gu Chen and carried him to the bed. From beginning to end, Li Qiyu didn't look up, reading and drinking intently, until she finished the last page of the book, then slowly looked up and asked, "How?" ”
Gu Chen shook his head a little tiredly: "It's not a big deal, it's all hard injuries, it looks strict, but there will be no permanent damage, it's just that the anesthesia hasn't passed yet, and I can't move." ”
Li Qiyu nodded and said, "Where have you seen Li Yitang?" ”
Gu Chen remembered Wei Junye's warning, glanced back and forth at the Gu family in the room, and said to them: "You guys go out, I have something to talk to my senior sister about alone." ”
After everyone in the Gu family left, Gu Chen said to Li Qiyu extremely strictly: "Senior sister, I shouldn't have said it, but you are my senior sister, and more importantly, you saved my life." So I sued you, don't let anyone else know, and don't be found out that you have been there, otherwise my family will be in trouble. ”
Li Qiyu frowned: "Someone threatened you not to say?" ”
"Well, the people of the Wei family should be involved in military secrets."
Gu Chen then told Li Qiyu about the whole process one by one, Li Qiyu listened carefully, and after listening, he couldn't wait to stand up, and disappeared without a trace with a sentence of "come back another day".
She seemed to be very anxious, and Gu Chen suddenly remembered that this seemed to be the first time he saw Li Qiyu's expression of caring about someone.
Half a month later, Gu Chen was discharged from the hospital, and Li Qiyu appeared again when he was recuperating at home. Her eyebrows and eyes were a little tired, as if she hadn't slept in months.
Gu Chen knew that she must have gone to that snowfield, and asked, "Have you found Master?" ”
Li Qiyu shook his head and said with a headache: "Old loach ......"
Gu Chen opened his mouth, hesitated for a while, and finally said, "Senior sister, I think Master may ...... It's gone. ”
"No, he's not going to die." Li Qiyu said: "The world is ...... There could be no one to kill him. ”
Gu Chen looked at Li Qiyu in amazement, because when she said this, her expression was not a little worried and sad, she was not comforting herself at all, but she was very serious and determined, she firmly believed that Li Yitang would not die, and believed in this cognition as if she believed in the truth.
Who gave her such confidence?
When he was stunned, Li Qiyu suddenly remembered and said calmly: "By the way, I met Wei Chongxue there." ”
Bang!
With a sharp breaking sound, the glass slipped from Gu Chen's hand and smashed to the ground and fell apart!
Gu Chen's face was like earth, his whole person stiffened, and he looked at Li Qiyu in horror!
Wei Chongxue, one of the three brothers of the Wei family, is the chief of the general staff of the entire Northland Military Department.
