Ning Que pulled out the thorns in front of him, walked out of the flower garden, stood among the smooth stone lawns in the courtyard, looked at Gu Xi in the chair, and asked, "I don't seem to have offended you, why did you kill me?"

Gu Xi slowly stood up from the middle of the canopy, looked at him and smiled and said: "There are many things in this world that need a reason, and killing is of course no exception, but people like us kill people differently from cutting off the heads of prisoners in the imperial court, and it doesn't necessarily mean that you want to offend me, the reason why I want to kill you is just because in my opinion, you should die." ”

Ning Que slowly and seriously began to roll up his sleeves, looked at Gu Xi not far away, and asked with a calm expression: "I really don't know what reason I should die, and I ask the military advisor for advice." ”

The expression on Gu Xi's face was a little weird, his smile was mixed with some wonderful cowardly feelings, a few short beards trembled slightly in the cold wind, he looked at Ning Que and smiled: "Yushi Zhang Yiqi, those people were killed by Mr. Thirteen, right?"

Ning Que's fingers as he rolled up his sleeves paused slightly, shook his head and said, "I haven't heard of this person." ”

Gu Xi smiled and leaned back, gave a thumbs up and praised sincerely: "Mr. Thirteen kills people without leaving a trace, even if he tells a lie, his face does not change, you really shouldn't go to practice and should stand on top of the court, but ......"

As the word "however" came out, the smile on his face suddenly disappeared, and he was extremely cold: "Although Lin Ling and I didn't find any evidence, I know that you were making a move in the red sleeves that day, especially when you learned that Mr. Thirteen seemed to have murderous intent against my family's general, that was enough, and you already had a reason to die." ”

"Killing a person requires not only a reason, but also a benefit. Ning Que began to roll up the sleeve on his right arm, bowed his head and said, "I can't think of anything, as General Xiahou's most trusted subordinate, what benefits you can bring to you or General Xiahou by killing me, a disciple of my master, in Tuyang City." ”

When Ning Que left Chang'an City and entered the wasteland until he returned, he often used this identity to bully the other party when he used the master's personal disciple to describe himself in conversations with people, but today's situation is different.

He really couldn't understand that Gu Xi was determined to kill himself, wasn't the other party worried that the anger of the academy and the empire after the incident would directly burn himself and the general Xiahou who he swore allegiance to directly to ashes?

Gu Xi stroked his beard lightly and said slowly: "Killing a student on the second floor of the academy will naturally take a great risk, and you will naturally get great benefits, and the biggest benefit is that you will never threaten the general again." ”

Ning Que rolled up the sleeves of his right arm, and his fists hung down on the side of his legs, feeling the chill of the winter wind.

He looked at Gu Xi and shook his head and said, "This kind of benefit is far from enough. ”

Gu Xi suddenly squinted his eyes and said with emotion: "What did I follow the general for half my life......? Wouldn't I have to grow old with me, do you think I can endure this kind of thing?"

He looked at Ning Que's face, his eyes were cold and with a hint of madness that came from nowhere, and said quietly: "The general wants to return to old age, but I really don't want him to return to old age, but unfortunately I am not qualified to overturn the agreement between him and Mr. Big, so if you want to destroy this matter, what other way do you have than to kill Mr. Thirteen? Haotian is always so merciful, as the weakest world in the history of the academy, it seems that the most suitable ending is to die." ”

Ning Que realized at this time that this military advisor turned out to be a madman, his brows slowly furrowed, and he shook his head and said: "But have you thought about it, killing me Xiahou will not end well, everyone in the world knows that you are his most loyal dog, who would believe that this is your own opinion?"

Gu Xi gently put his palms together, sighed softly with some excitement, and said: "So this is the best time, Mr. Thirteen, you are so weak, and the world knows that Mr. Big has never killed anyone in his life, so after I kill you, I can still live, then I will always live, even if I live like a dog, all the way to Chang'an City, to the court and even in front of the master, to carry this matter for the general." ”

Hearing the other party say that the senior brother had never killed anyone in his life, Ning Que was slightly stunned, and immediately remembered the gentle demeanor of the senior brother on weekdays, thinking that it was about the truth, and listening to the second half of the other party's words, he couldn't help but laugh slightly, and said: "Although I don't want to boast, but just by virtue of your identity, you want to bear the charge of killing me, it's really wishful thinking." ”

Gu Xi shook his head and said with emotion: "As long as I live, I will sue the whole world, the thirteenth Mr. of the academy was killed by me, and it has nothing to do with the general, I even have a way to make the world believe that I am a person from the Xiling Temple, and the reason why I want to kill you is to frame General Xiahou, so as to make the academy break with the emperor!"

Ning Que looked at the satisfied look on his face, shook his head and said, "It seems that you are indeed crazy, although this scheme sounds like that, but who would believe that you are from the Xiling Temple?"

The weird smile appeared on Gu Xi's face again, and said, "A person like you, Mr. Thirteen, probably won't believe it, but His Majesty the Emperor will believe it, the Empress Mother will believe it, and the most important thing is that the master will believe it."

Speaking of which, Gu Xi, a military advisor who was accustomed to taking care of the general in the dark, looked up at the gray winter sky, showed a quiet smile on his face, and said with emotion: Because I am really a person from the Xiling Temple. ”

Ning Que didn't know what to say, he had been struggling between life and death since he was a child, and he thought that he had seen through the darkness and complexity of the world, but at this time, listening to Gu Xi's confession of his original true identity and the madness that he was now bursting out for Xiahou, he found that he still didn't have enough understanding of the complexity of this world.

He tightened the belt around his waist to make sure that it would not have the slightest effect on the battle later, then raised his head, looked at Gu Xi and asked, "But how can you be sure that you can kill me?"

Gu Xi looked at him with a playful eye and said, "Because you are the weakest person on the second floor of the academy." ”

Ning Que sighed helplessly, thinking that this title would probably follow him for many years.

He asked, "But my senior brother is now in Tuyang City. ”

Gu Xi responded: "You appeared in my mansion, Mr. Big naturally thought that you were here to kill me, how could he care?"

Ning Que said: "In the same way, can it be said that General Xiahou will not care about this matter?"

Gu Xi smiled and said: "That's right, so today is the best opportunity to kill you, in fact, I have been hesitating whether to kill you or not, and it just so happens that you are here, then I have to kill you." ”

Ning Que said: "For me, this is also the best opportunity to kill you, in fact, I have been hesitating to enter the mansion to kill you, but since you happen to want to kill me, then I have to kill you." ”

Gu Xi looked at him with interest and asked, "You now know why I want to kill you, but I still can't be sure, why do you have to kill me, can you ask Mr. Thirteen for advice?"

Ning Que looked at his face and remembered the oiled note.

The guy who wrote the oil note was already dead, and the oil note had been destroyed by him, but he remembered the names on the oil note clearly, and there were the words Guxi in the front position.

Many years ago, Gu Xi, the military advisor, was already the most loyal and insidious dog of General Xiahou, according to the information found by Xiao Heizi, as well as some Tianshu Department scrolls that Master Ning Que Tong Guò secretly saw, it all showed that this military advisor was the liaison between Xiahou and Xiling Temple.

Back then, it was this military advisor named Guxi who set a plan for Xiahou to destroy General Xuanwei's mansion for treason, and the villages where Yanjing was slaughtered were also the idea of this military advisor for Xiahou.

With these reasons, it was enough for Ning Que to kill him a thousand times.

However, at this time, in the face of Gu Xi's question, he did not give any explanation.

The two sleeves were already rolled up to the elbows, the forearm ** was in the cold wind, and the steady right hand reached behind to hold the handle of the knife, and pulled out the white long Pu knife with a bang, and the blade shone like frost in the cold wind.

Ning Que walked through the courtyard with steady steps and walked towards Guxi in front of the pine chair.

Gu Xi slowly narrowed his eyes, and his hands in the sleeves behind him trembled slightly, obviously not because of fear, but he didn't know what these flicking fingers were doing.

The bright blade slashed through the quiet courtyard, cut through the cold wind blowing outside the wall, and slashed between Gu Xi's squinting eyes!

Gu Xi's eyes narrowed more and more, and his gaze suddenly became like electricity, falling on Ning Que's left hand hanging beside him.

Ning Que had a bag between his left fingers.

There is a powerful talisman in the bag.

It was the rune left to him by Master Yan Se, in order to fight against Ye Hongyu in front of the Demon Sect Mountain Gate, he used up a powerful arm military master Gu Xi who faced Xiahou today, and he did not hesitate to use the second one.

However, the rune in the brocade wife ...... It didn't start!

Gu Xi's eyes narrowed into two slits, and the slits in his eyes were compelling.

Countless talismans with different breaths erupted from his sleeves behind him, instantly stirring the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi in the courtyard and shaking it, and countless extremely subtle Yuan Qi tears and controls the flow, lying between the two of them.

Gu Xi, a military advisor under General Xiahou who was known for his insidious stratagems...... It turned out to be a rare powerful talisman in the world!

Those milky white space flows, as if the black cracks appeared on the ground, and the vitality of heaven and earth is like flowing water, passing very quickly, Ning lacks the connection between mental power and the bag, ** disturbing the can't keep it smooth for a moment!

The slender Pu knife in his hand, in the seemingly transparent space, seemed to be stuck in a quagmire, difficult to move, although it was not far from Gu Xi's face, it seemed that it could never be approached.

As if sensing the chaos in the courtyard to the incredible talisman and the flow of heaven and earth vitality, the air above the mansion became solemn and depressed, and I don't know which cloud in which the dampness was crushed into snow and slowly fell to the ground.

A snowflake floated across Ning Que's eyelashes and landed on the back of his hand holding the handle of the knife trembling slightly, melting instantly.

The situation in the arena was extremely tense, and Ning Que's situation was extremely dangerous, but when the snowflake fell, his eyelashes didn't blink, and his eyes were still calm and focused.

(Uh-huh...... There's another chapter, uh-huh, where I cheer myself up. (To be continued)
