Chapter 34: The Storm is Coming

Murong Ze got the news that since Yu Wenhan appeared openly on the day of his fortieth birthday from ancient times, he began to secretly contact people from all walks of life in private, and he was very busy. The same is true of Yuwen Tuo on the other side, but he has been secretly starting since the day he came to Shifang City, and the two brothers are now unscrupulous.

The two of them did not expect this move in the first place, so it is not surprising. And who the two sides have met is what they need to pay attention to. Lu Qianmo took the list in Murong Ze's hands and read them one by one, there are not many people in the rivers and lakes who have met with the two Yuwen brothers, mainly the forces of the Northern Desert, except for Gu Lianyi, the second-in-command of Green Water Fiber. This made Lu Qianmo secretly breathe a sigh of relief, but she always felt that there seemed to be something suspicious about this list, but she couldn't say anything wrong for a while.

Seeing that the other party has never taken his eyes off since he took over the list. Murong Ze couldn't help but ask, "Is there anything wrong with this list?" After all, he had also looked at the list and found nothing unusual.

Hearing Murong Ze's words, Lu Qianmo pursed her lips and shook her head slightly, "I always feel that there is something wrong, but I can't say it." Let me look at it a little longer. ”

Murong Ze knew Lu Qianmo's temperament, and it was impossible to persuade her not to think about it for the time being at this time, so he sat aside and drank tea with peace of mind.

Time passed minute by minute, Lu Qianmozai carefully read the list no less than ten times, and finally found something abnormal.

"This list is incomplete."

Murong Ze's eyebrows raised slightly, "Why do you say that?" ”

Lu Qianmo put down the list, poured himself a glass of warm water and drank it, and then explained: "Last night, I arrived outside Yuwen Han's Mansion at about the end of the year, and as soon as I arrived, I saw Yun Moxi and Yu Wenhan coming out one after the other. However, if you look at the time on this list, Yu Wenhan did not meet anyone during the entire period. ”

"Are you saying that Yu Wenhan must have met someone during the period, and their conversation was overheard by Yun Moxi."

"Yes. If someone hadn't discovered something, Yuwen Han would not have been a killer. ”

Murong Ze looked at the list again, and there was indeed no record of who Yu Wenhan saw at the time. "But it's also possible that Yu Wenhan was overheard by Yun Moxi when he arranged some ulterior tasks for his subordinates."

"Your guess is not impossible. Just in case, this matter still needs to be checked. What Murong said did make sense, but her intuition told her that things must not be so simple.

"I'll tell someone to check it."

……

Today is the day when the Wind Howling Sword Village holds the Sword Exhibition Conference, and some people from the rivers and lakes who have not been invited to participate in the 40th birthday of Gu Wei have come to Shifang City, and most of them have come for this. Therefore, there are far more people in the rivers and lakes gathered in the Wind Howling Sword Village today than yesterday's birthday banquet.

In addition to the hundred guards who had to stay inside the Sword Village, Gu Wei deployed all the other guards to the scene to maintain order and security, and the Shifang City Taishou dispatched nearly 200 soldiers to assist.

Today's weapons on display are mainly swords and others, totaling more than 1,000 pieces. The dazzling array of weapons dazzles the people in it.

With such a grand occasion, not only did there not see a trace of a smile on the face of the owner of the Wind Howling Sword Village, but his face was full of sadness, and he sighed. Yesterday, his beloved wife, who was poisoned and couldn't wake up, suddenly woke up with poison, which was originally a joyous and crying thing, but the other party told him an extremely shocking and headache thing, which made him upset and overwhelmed.

His beloved wife told him that there had been a lot of people from the Demon Sect gathered inside and outside Shifang City, and they were probably coming for the people from all walks of life who had come to attend his birthday banquet. If this is the case, and the people in the rivers and lakes are killed by the hands of the Demon Sect because of this, then wouldn't he have become a sinner through the ages, and death is not enough to apologize.

Besides, the people in the Demon Sect may not necessarily let go of the people of the Wind Howling Sword Village, it is very likely that they are also here for the Creation Sword, he doesn't dare to imagine what will happen to his wife and children, and his disciples? I dare not imagine that the Wind Howling Sword Village has stood for more than 800 years, but it may end in his own hands, how will he have the face to meet the ancestors and ancestors of the past dynasties?

Ever since he got the news, he had thought about issuing a notice to cancel today's Sword Exhibition and Conference, and not to gather everyone here to facilitate the Demon Sect's attack, but in this case, he was worried that the Wind Howling Sword Village would become the only target of the Demon Sect's attack. If everyone gathers together, maybe the chances of fighting the Demon Sect will be greatly improved.

Although he was also very ashamed of his thoughts, he did not want Wind Howling Sword Zhuang to bear the attack of the Demon Sect alone. As a result, the Sword Exhibition Conference was held as scheduled.

"Sir."

The woman's call pulled Gu Wei's divine consciousness back. Gu Wei was surprised to see his beloved wife appear in front of her, she was still so calm and calm, without the slightest fear and worry about facing the crisis.

Gu Wei frowned, and said angrily: "Didn't I let you and Fu'er leave first?" How did you come back? ”

Yang Xiaowan smiled, "Don't worry, I have asked Jianming to take Fu'er away, and I will not leave alone." ”

Gu Wei got up, hugged his wife into his arms, and said fondly: "Silly Xiao'er, you can be safe is what I want to see." ”

Yang Xiao gently wrapped her hand around her husband and comforted: "And I hope that you and I will work together and never give up." ”

Hearing this, Gu Wei hugged Yang Xiao tighter, as if he wanted to rub it into his body and protect it. "Xiao'er, why are you doing this?"

Yang Xiao smiled happily: "This is my choice." I am the greatest luck to meet you in this life, and I am willing to live and die with you. My only regret is that I won't be able to see my sister and Huohuo again, but I'm sure Fu'er will make up for it. ”

"If you have regrets, make up for them!" Coolup's voice and the sound of the door opening came together.

Gu Wei and Yang Xiao looked at their daughter together, "Fu'er, why are you back?" ”

Gu Yifu didn't answer and asked, "How can you leave Fu'er alone?" ”

"Where's the sword? I can't do that. Gu Wei Gu Yifu came alone and asked.

"He was knocked unconscious by me and hid in the woods behind."

"You ......"

Gu Yifu saw that his father was really angry, so his attitude was also very tough, "I won't leave anyway!" "I'm not going to leave you alone.

"When will you ever hear the word of your father?" Gu Wei was even more angry when he saw this.

"I won't listen to this matter anyway."

"You ......"

"Master, don't be angry yet." Yang Xiao saw that Gu Wei was angry, and persuaded him. Then he said to his daughter, "Fu'er, be obedient." ”

"Mother, Fu'er don't go. I'm going to stay and help you, and how do you know we're going to lose? ”

"We won't necessarily lose, but for your safety, it's better for you to leave first."

"Mother, you let Fu'er go first, but have you thought about Fu'er's feelings? How can I put my parents in danger and run away first, how can you give Fu'er the courage to live in the future? ”

When Yang Xiao heard this, she couldn't hold back her tears. "Fuer......"

Seeing this, Gu Yifu hugged his mother and said, "Mother, let me stay and help you, okay?" ”

"Mother, I know you have filial piety, but ......"

"Mother, don't be. Our top priority is to find a way to resist the attack of the Demon Sect, instead of wasting time here, born as a descendant of the ancient family, I have the obligation to protect the Wind Howling Sword Village, protect the Creation Sword, and protect my father. ”

Yang Xiao and Gu Wei were both shocked by Gu Yifu's words, and at this moment they realized that their daughter had grown up. Although they couldn't bear it, the two finally decided to respect their daughter's choice.

Seeing that her father and mother no longer insisted, Gu Yifu was very happy, but she also understood her responsibility at this moment, she wanted to protect the Wind Howling Sword Village and her loved ones.

"Dad, I think we should tell the people outside about the Demon Sect, so that everyone can be prepared to fight the Demon Sect together." Kuifu suggested.

Gu Wei was embarrassed, how could he have the face to tell his wife and daughter about his selfishness.

Seeing this, Yang Xiao stepped forward to hold her husband's hand, and then smiled at him, "Master, what you did before was all for the sake of Wind Howling Sword Village, for me and Fu'er, I can understand you." ”

Gu Wei didn't expect his wife to be able to see through his selfishness, and he was a little embarrassed, "Xiao'er." ”

"However, I think Fu'er is right. Let's not talk about the morality of the rivers and lakes, let everyone know in advance and be prepared, and the chance of repelling the Demon Sect will be greater. ”

"But when they found out about it, how many people were willing to stay."

"If you had announced yesterday that the Sword Exhibition would have been cancelled due to the Demon Cult, I don't think there would have been many people who would have come to help us. However, they are already in the midst of it today, and knowing this, some will definitely be the first to leave, but I believe that some others will also be willing to stay and fight against the Demon Cult together. Even if no one wants to, this move is only for us to live with peace of mind in the future. ”

"Mother, do you mean that my father knew about this yesterday, but deliberately let the Sword Exhibition be held as scheduled?" Coolup couldn't believe what she heard, in her heart her father had always been an upright man, and she didn't believe that he would put the lives of thousands of people out there in danger for his own selfishness.

…… Faced with his daughter's questions, Gu Wei was speechless.

"Fu'er, your father is also for us, for the sake of the Wind Howling Sword Village."

Of course, she understood her father's original intention, but when she thought of the justice and right and wrong that her father taught her since she was a child, she just didn't want to believe that her father did it.

Although Gu Yifu was surprised and disagreed with what her father had done, she knew that this was not the time to care. Besides, the other party is to protect her father, although she doesn't agree, she has no qualifications, and she can't care about anything.

Besides, they still have a big war to fight at the moment, "Dad, what are you going to do now?" ”

Gu Wei didn't expect that his daughter didn't have too much shame and disappointment after knowing about it, at least not on the surface. Whatever the reason, he was pleased.

"Fu'er, you are here to protect your mother. The Genesis Sword is guarded by eighteen sword souls, so don't worry about it for the time being. Leave the affairs outside to me, and the Father will not let you down. "I will do everything in my power to keep you safe, even if you lose your life.

"Sir, take care." Yang Xiao instructed.

Gu Wei looked at his wife affectionately, then at his daughter, and then resolutely left.

Gu Yifu looked at the back of her father's departure, pursed her lips and said nothing, she believed that his father would still be the hero in her heart.
