Chapter 589: Hold on (1st Shift)
Seeing that Zhou Gu was still in the mood to comfort him, the King of Nanchu felt that Su Rong's vision was really good, obviously he was still a teenager, and he was still a few years old before he reached the age of the crown, but he acted safely, and he tossed him for so long, and he was unharmed, and he was worthy of being cultivated by the prince of Great Wei, the prince and the old protector.
Cheap him.
He said to Zhou Gu: "Although in addition to raising 50,000 soldiers and horses privately in Xiling, I have not cultivated my own forces, because the time is too short, cultivating forces, plus privately raising soldiers and horses, I can only choose one to do, so as not to be greedy and chew too much, and I can't do anything well, so that I will leak the news." Therefore, Lone chose to raise soldiers and horses privately with Yexiang, and then support Yeguixue to make him grow, just to use the power of Yexiangfu, as long as Yexiangfu can compete with the Nangong family, it will be a success. But alas, the time is too short, in just five years, Ye Guixue can subdue 50,000 soldiers and horses in Xijing under the disturbance of the Nangong family, which is almost useless, and no matter how much, the Night Phase Mansion is also tired of coping, after all, the Nangong family is too deeply rooted and entrenched for too long, in this land, the Nangong family has to start earlier than the Nanchu royal family. ”
Zhou Gu nodded.
The king of Nanchu said again: "However, it is not that Lone has done nothing, he has installed some people in the Nangong family, and he has also rebelled against some people. It's just that what Gu has done, under the dispatch of the Nangong family, is insignificant, a drop in the bucket, and it is difficult to resist. ”
Zhou Gu sighed and stretched out his hand to hug the king of Nanchu, "Father-in-law, it's not easy for you, after we get through this difficulty, when we see Xiao Qi, you can throw Nanchu to her and make her tired." ”
The king of Nanchu was suddenly hugged by him, his body stiffened, and the corners of his mouth moved for a while, before he reprimanded him, "You kid, what are you doing suddenly holding me?" Scare me, scare me to death, see how you explain it to my daughter. ”
Zhou Gu smiled, "Hasn't anyone hugged you?" Seeing that you are stiff, I am not scaring you, but I am giving you a little bit of trust in Xiao Qi, so that you can cheer up, it's not a big deal. ”
The corners of the king of Nanchu's mouth twitched, and he said stiffly: "It's not to throw it to her, and you, do you think my prince of Nanchu is so good?" If you don't do well, there will be many people who will criticize you and compare you with the snow returning at night, if you can't compare, you will be ridiculed for the rest of your life. ”
Zhou Gu rolled his eyes, "I will definitely be able to do a good job and let everyone praise me in the future." ”
The king of Nanchu was amused, "Okay, it's a good thing that you have ambitions." ”
Zhou Gu originally wanted to hug him for a while, but when he heard the movement of grass and trees in the distance, he scolded in a low voice, "Damn, I found it again so soon." ”
He picked up his sword and said to Zhang Yun, who had been silently watching the two of them on the side: "Old rules, Brother Zhang Yun, my father-in-law will be entrusted to you to take care of." ”
Zhang Yun sat up straight, he had already lost his temper, "You just have to go." ”
Round after round of killing, day after day of hiding, as a large number of killers from the Nangong family entered the Valley of the Dead in Wanren Mountain, the secret guards around Zhou Gu and Zhang Yun fell one after another.
Midnight and Liuying were seriously injured, Feng Yue also had minor injuries, and Zhou Gu was naturally also injured, and there were only two people who looked good, that is, the King of Southern Chu and Zhang Yun, who had been protected from anyone else.
After Zhang Yun was solved in the new round of killings on this day, he asked Zhou Gu, "Brother Zhou, how many days have passed since the news came out from Fengyue?" ”
"Five days." Zhou Gu glanced at him, and while tearing off the clothes on his arm to check the sword wound, he said, "You won't have a bad memory, will you?" ”
"I'll just make sure with you." Zhang Yun sighed, "It's really like a year." ”
He saw that the wound on Zhou Gu's arm was deeply wounded, and took the initiative to take care of the work of bandaging him, and after applying the medicinal powder, he saw Zhou Gu take out the good medicine and pour one from the bottle and swallow it, he sighed, "Brother Zhou, you have the foresight, if we didn't take these good medicines at that time and make them into life-saving pills, we wouldn't be able to last so long." ”
At the very least, the Dark Guards will be able to reduce the number of fallen men.
Zhou Gu raised his eyebrows, "There is no useless work in this world. ”
After Zhang Yun finished bandaging, he raised his arm, and seeing that the sky was getting darker, he breathed a sigh of relief, "I like the dark sky now." ”
Because in the dark night, this Valley of the Dead in Ten Thousand Mountains is even darker and you can't see your five fingers, which is easy to hide, unlike during the day, no matter where you hide, you will be found quickly, and the traces can't be hidden. When it was dark, it was when they could find a place to breathe, and even if they were found by those mad dogs with torches, it was much more difficult to find than during the day.
"Tomorrow I will come, and you will take care of the king." Zhang Yundao.
Zhou Gu glanced at him, "Come on, even if I hurt an arm, I'm better than you, it's still me!" ”
Zhang Yun choked.
In the middle of the night, suddenly there was a sound of footsteps in all directions, very urgent, and it seemed that many people were looking for them.
Zhou Gu's face changed, and he stood up, "King Liu'an's men and horses have found here." ”
Zhang Yun's face also changed, "What should we do?" ”
Zhou Gu clenched his fists and didn't say a word.
Zhang Yun was also silent.
What else can be done now? Kill? I'm afraid that if they can't fight hard, 50,000 horses and wheel battles will also kill them to death. Escape? If you can't escape, this place has long been sealed by soldiers and horses, it's just a jar, people can come in, but you can't get out.
Feng Yue came over at this time and said to Zhou Gu, "Fourth son, there is another way. ”
"What's the method?" Advisor Zhou.
Fengyue gritted her teeth and said: "My subordinates found a stone cave halfway up the Wanren Mountain, which can hold more than a dozen people. You and Zhang Sangongzi take the king away, and we will set fire to the mountain. ”
Zhou Gu was suddenly shocked, "No." ”
Now that they are combined, there are hundreds of secret guards, and the cave can only hold a dozen people, doesn't it mean that these hundreds of secret guards will have to be burned to death along with them?
"There's no other way." Fengyue said: "Compared with killing all of them and dying, it is cheaper to stay with King Liu'an, isn't it better to be buried together?" ”
He looked at Zhou Gu, "I know that the fourth prince can't bear it, but the most important thing is that you and Wang Shang and Zhang Yungongzi are alive." The rest of us are not afraid of death. ”
Zhou Gu still shook his head, "No, let's hold on a little longer, and we will definitely be able to wait for Xiao Qi to come to the rescue." ”
"I can't hold it." Feng Yue said: "There are only a few hundred steps left, as long as we kill, we won't even be able to walk." Take advantage of the fact that now, you can still hurry up and climb halfway up the mountain. ”
Zhou Gu shook his head and said in a resolute tone, "No, whether it is my secret guard, or the king's secret guard, or Brother Zhang Yun's secret guard, and you, Xiao Qi has been frugal since he was a child and deceived the eldest lady to take the dowry and silver to raise you for so many years, and you can't just end up together." ”
His face was cold, and he said coldly: "Fengyue, dispel your thoughts, listen to me, even if you fight and kill and the blood runs dry, you can't set yourself on fire." ”
Once the fire is set on fire, the mountains and forests here are luxuriant, and it is winter, and there is no snow recently, and it is very dry, and they all have to die.
Fengyue was a little anxious, "The fourth son, those who become big things are not informal." ”
"That's not going to work either." Zhou Gu said angrily: "How do you know that the cave on the cliff is safe?" Did you know that if you set it on fire, the whole mountain will burn up, and the people hiding in the cave halfway up the mountain will be safe? Whether it is smoked or roasted by fire, it can be smoked to death. In case Xiao Qi comes, she wants to save us, but she is helpless. ”
Feng Yue's face turned pale when she heard this, she didn't expect this, she was shocked, and lowered her head, "It's because my subordinates didn't think it through." ”
