Chapter 43: Attacked
As soon as the picture of the white-clothed Shengxue vaguely appeared in his mind, Zhao Qinhe's mind suddenly became chaotic again.
'Does it even matter if you think about it!'
Feeling his state, Yi Jin automatically operated through internal strength, and a brilliant atmosphere rose in the consciousness of Lingtai, instantly completely dispersing the phantom that became clearer and clearer, and his originally faint heart instantly calmed down.
"Hey, hey, what's wrong with you?" Gu Fangzhou beckoned with his hand in front of Zhao Qinhe's eyes and asked.
"No, it's nothing, it's just that I'm thinking about something too much. Zhao Qinhe said with a smile.
"By the way, who is the man in white just now, I think you seem to be a little scared of him, do you know him?" Zhao Qinhe asked.
"Afraid, just kidding, who am I, Gu Fangzhou, I can't write the word 'afraid' since I was a child. Gu Fangzhou's head shook like a rattle, and he quickly denied it, of course, if he could restrain the throbbing look on his face, the credibility might be a little higher.
Seeing his expression, Zhao Qinhe already knew it.
But before he could ask any more questions, Gu Fangzhou took the lead in opening his mouth and diverting the topic.
"Let's not mention those inconsequential passers-by, in this way, since Qinhe is the first time you have come to this Xuzhou City, then brother, I will do my best to take you to the most famous place in Xuzhou City to see and see. ”
Gu Fangzhou said as he spoke, and at the same time, regardless of Zhao Qinhe's opinion, he directly pulled him in the opposite direction to the river embankment.
Although Zhao Qinhe still had a lot of questions, Gu Fangzhou didn't give him a chance to speak at all, so he had to leave with him.
The two walked for a while, and finally stopped in front of a very large and decorated building.
"That's what you call a good place?"
Zhao Qinhe stood in front of the door of the building, looked up at the three big characters 'Yicui Building' written on the plaque of the gate, and asked with a strange face.
"Of course, this is the largest and most famous green building in Xuzhou City, and I don't know how many rich sons, knights and students patronize here. Gu Fangzhou on the side said as a matter of course, and at the same time looked inside through the door with fiery eyes.
Just when the two of them stayed in front of the gate of Yicui Building, on the roof of a building in the corner not far away, a shadow was sneakily hiding, poking its head out from time to time, staring at the two angrily.
She watched the two of them standing at the door of Yicuilou / talking, her eyes were full of anger, her face was flushed, red all the way to the roots of her hair, her nose was wide open due to the excitement in her heart, beads of sweat appeared on her forehead, a deep wrinkle from her tight/biting lip, and the hand holding the sword continued to exert force because of anger, making a 'click' sound.
"Don't go in, if you go in, I won't castrate you." The shadow whispered to herself through gritted teeth.
On the other side, Zhao Qinhe looked at Yi Cuilou and said speechlessly, "Isn't this just a brothel, even if it is famous, it is just a brothel!"
"Eh, you're wrong, brother, this Yicuilou is not a brothel, it's a green building, you must not compare it with other brothels that don't enter the stream and only do the skin business, it is not known how many times noble. Gu Fangzhou heard his words and hurriedly explained.
"Noble, is it?" said Zhao Qinhe noncommittally.
"Forget it, hearing is false, seeing is believing. You can feel it for yourself, let's go, let's go, I'll ask you, okay. As he spoke, he made a gesture to pull Zhao Qinhe in.
But they had barely taken a few steps when they suddenly felt a shadow loom over them, and a sound of breaking wind sounded behind them.
Enemy!
The two of them turned around at the same time, only to see a figure rushing towards them from the roof of the opposite house, and the figure was extremely fast, and there were few afterimages left.
The figure was in mid-air, and suddenly the long sword came out of its sheath, and the pure white scabbard swept through Zhao Qinhe's eyes, and the cold blade of the sword shone its own light in the air.
The long sword stabbed out, and the sharp sword light brought a vast white practice in the air, and a brilliant sword light filled their eyes.
The sword light was differentiated, and as the figure came with a sword, the criss-crossing sword qi blocked the four directions.
"You bad man, give me death!"
In the midst of the dazzling sword, a coquettish cry full of anger and resentment came from the figure.
After taking a closer look, Zhao Qinhe realized that the person who attacked was actually a woman.
Under the influence of the brilliant sword light, Zhao Qinhe did not clearly see the appearance of the attacker, but according to the voice she made before, it should be a young woman.
'Negative man?'
Zhao Qinhe frowned when he heard this, and his mind turned sharply.
The hand that was originally pressed on the hilt of the sword slowly let go, because he found that although the sword light was enveloping him, he felt that he was not locked by the sword intent, and as long as he wanted to, he could easily get out of the attack range of the sword momentum.
'I'm not targeted, that means...
Zhao Qinhe looked at Gu Fangzhou, who was holding the handle of the knife beside him with a different color, and guessed in a blink of an eye.
He showed a hint of a smile, and in Gu Fangzhou's surprised gaze, he jumped lightly to the side, and effortlessly broke away from the blockade of that sword qi.
Zhao Qinhe held the long sword and watched the events in front of him with a leisurely expression.
In the words of resentment, a sword was cold and light in the sky.
The girl holding the long sword stabbed towards Gu Fangzhou with a resolute face, but Gu Fangzhou, who was the target of the sword light attack, strangely did not make the slightest action to resist.
Just as the blade of the sword was about to pierce Gu Fangzhou's throat, he suddenly opened his voice.
"Murder of my husband!!"
The voice was not loud, and the tone was very flat, without the slightest fluctuation.
But when this sound came out, the long sword that was still with a decisive aura suddenly stopped, and the sword blade was only less than half an inch away from Gu Fangzhou's throat, if it was a few points slower, there was no doubt that the sword blade would be inserted from Gu Fangzhou's throat.
Gu Fangzhou looked at the sword blade that was close to his throat, and suddenly felt that his mouth was dry, but he didn't even dare to swallow his saliva.
"Yiyi, why are you here? ”
Gu Fangzhou took a few steps back slightly, a little farther away from the sword blade, then licked his dry lips, and said with a forced smile.
In front of him, a cute girl wearing an auspicious cloud pattern phoenix fairy skirt and long braids was holding a long sword and pointing at him with a resentful expression.
"I haven't seen you for so long, don't you have to treat me like this as soon as we meet, anyway, we are also an unmarried couple who are childhood sweethearts. Gu Fangzhou pinched the blade of the long sword with his fingers, moved it aside, and said.
"Fiancée, are you embarrassed to say this, do you say that there will be a fiancé in this world who runs away from home in order to hide from his fiancée, my young master Gu. The girl named Yiyi said with a sneer.
Zhao Qinhe, who was on the side, heard the conversation between them, and had to shake his head, after all, it is difficult for a Qing official to decide family affairs, and this kind of emotional dispute must not be interfered with.
