Chapter 135: Gu Xiyan asks Liu Xi for help
After returning to Cangdu, Lanshan Yucha has been very busy, almost nowhere to be seen, every time she asks where Lanshan Yucha goes, the housekeeper always talks about her perfunctory.
Gu Liuxi also learned smartly, and didn't ask again after that.
The housekeeper will let people make delicious pastries for her every day, the first two days are fine, and the Seven Princes' Mansion is also very novel, after more than two days, she is no longer interested, delicious pastries can no longer keep her heart, and she still has a task to do.
It was too boring in the Seventh Prince's Mansion, and Gu Liuxi was ready to go out for a walk.
Anyway, it's a guest, so you should ask the host as a courtesy.
The master was not at home, Gu Liuxi asked the housekeeper, and the housekeeper originally wanted to send someone to accompany her, but she politely refused.
Please, she has a mission on her body, how could she possibly have someone around to spy on her.
After politely rejecting the housekeeper, she went out on the street alone.
Familiar streets, bustling crowds.
Just like the first time I was here, nothing seems to have changed after a few months.
Standing on the bustling streets, Gu Liuxi suddenly missed Chi Heng a little, how to say that he was also her first friend in this world, which meant a lot to her.
What's more, Chi Zi has helped her a lot, and even escaped from prison because of Chi Zi's gang.
She was genuinely grateful to Chiko, and now that she's back, she doesn't know what happened to Chiko.
I wanted to go to him, but I suddenly found that I didn't know where his family lived after knowing him for so long.
Judging by his appearance, his family should be in Cangdu.
She might as well go and say hello first.
Gu Liuxi stopped a woman passing by and greeted politely, "This sister, do you know if there is a person named Chi Heng here?" ”
The woman shook her head, "I haven't heard of it." ”
"That's it! Thank you..."
Gu Liuxi asked several people in a row, but they all said that they had never heard of this name.
A kind uncle told her that Cangdu has a large population and a lot of outsiders, and it is not easy to find such a person, so let her go to the place where that person often goes.
Uncle's words reminded Gu Liuxi that Chi Zi would often go to Xinyue Restaurant to find her before, maybe the people there would know where Chi Zi lived.
After making up his mind, Gu Liuxi went to Xinyue Restaurant.
When I returned to this place again, I suddenly felt strange and familiar.
Walking into Xinyue Restaurant, the restaurant is still overcrowded.
The shopkeeper was busy walking around to greet customers, and the face of the shopkeeper was unfamiliar to her, not Xiaofang.
I remember the first time I came here, Xiao Fang showed a friendly smile to her, and explained to her what she was responsible for, although she would occasionally be lazy, but basically she was still a very funny person, in this restaurant, although everyone had a good relationship, but her relationship with Xiao Fang was particularly good.
Xiao Fang also took care of her at the beginning, but she didn't expect that even Xiao Fang was gone.
In the blink of an eye, things are already wrong.
Walking into the restaurant, the only familiar thing is the shopkeeper shouting loudly in front of the counter, the shopkeeper should be a newcomer, the work is not neat enough, and there are too many people to greet him, and the shopkeeper is so anxious that he is about to jump to his feet.
Seeing this situation, the corners of Gu Liuxi's lips couldn't help but curl up, revealing a smile.
Standing at the door and watching for a long time, the shopkeeper, who had been busy and reprimanded by the shopkeeper, finally discovered Gu Liuxi's existence.
"This guest officer, is it a tip or a meal?"
"Uh..."Gu Liuxi came back to her senses, the shopkeeper was already standing in front of her, maybe because she was always reprimanded by the shopkeeper, her little face was flushed, and she didn't look very old, "That... Let's eat first! ”
"Okay, guest officer, please."
The shopkeeper quickly led Gu Liuxi to an empty table, Gu Liuxi ordered two dishes and one soup, and did not ask for wine.
During the meal, Gu Liuxi kept looking around, but he didn't see Chi Heng's figure, and couldn't help but wonder if he didn't come today.
The meal finally came up, and Gu Liuxi left the shopkeeper who served the food, "By the way, let me ask you something, have you ever seen a man with honey-colored pupils come here to eat today?" His name is Chi Heng Water Pavilion. ”
Gu Liuxi thinks that Chi Heng has come here a lot of times, and everyone here should know him.
The shopkeeper shook his head, "Guest officer, I've only been here for half a month, and I've never seen the man with honey-colored eyes that the guest officer said, and I haven't heard the name Chi Heng Water Pavilion, guest officer, do you need me to go to the shopkeeper to ask you?" ”
"Uh... I don't need that yet, thank you! ”
Wanran refused the help of the shopkeeper, and after paying the bill after eating, Gu Liuxi went to find the shopkeeper in person.
The shopkeeper first looked at Gu Liuxi for a while, and felt that this person was very familiar, but he couldn't remember it all of a sudden, so he asked, "...... are you?"
Gu Liuxi blinked wisely and said playfully, "I haven't seen you for a few months, shopkeeper, you won't know me so soon." ”
At first, the shopkeeper really didn't recognize Gu Liuxi, but when he heard the tone and expression of her voice, the shopkeeper immediately remembered, and he pointed at Gu Liuxi in disbelief, "You are... Little ......"
"Shh......h
Gu Liuxi made a silent movement on his lips, and the shopkeeper immediately nodded understandingly.
The shopkeeper brought Gu Liuxi into the back wing room before asking, "Why are you here?" ”
"Oh, I'm here to ask, do you have any news of the pool, has he been here recently?" Gu Liuxi explained the intention.
The shopkeeper said, "You said that Chi Heng is a child!" He hasn't been here for a long time, he's been here a lot for drinks since you've left, he's rarely been here since you're gone, but he still comes once in a while, but I haven't seen him again in the last month. ”
Gu Liuxi's brows curled, "Then do you know where his family lives?" ”
The shopkeeper shook his head, "We are only responsible for the food and accommodation of the guests here, and we are not responsible for asking the guests where they come from, do you have any important things to do with him?" I'll tell him for you if I see him later. ”
"It's not an important thing, it's just that I haven't been back for a long time, and I want to get together with old friends." She didn't actually have anything to do, so she thought that she was an old friend after all, and when she came back, she naturally wanted to tell him, but she didn't expect that Chi Zi hadn't been here for more than a month.
"Konishi! Don't blame me for being too talkative, what the hell is going on in your family, do you know, the more you... No, after you left, a lot of things happened in Cangdu, and in the end they were all plastered with notices to arrest you, and later..."After all, the shopkeeper and Gu Liuxi can be regarded as half friends, so he told Gu Liuxi what happened when she was away.
It turned out that after she escaped from prison, the people of the Gu family issued a notice to arrest Gu Liuxi, and the matter was caused to the emperor, and later it was the national teacher and the prince who personally went out to settle the matter, I heard that the eldest lady of the Gu family was killed by evil ghosts, and the national teacher had brought the two evil ghosts to justice, which returned Gu Liuxi's innocence.
Notices are posted on the walls of the streets.
Saying goodbye to the shopkeeper, Gu Liuxi had nothing to do, so he wanted to look at the notices on the street.
Looking at the notice, Gu Liuxi felt a little sad, the national teacher finally gave her a clean slate, however, the shopkeeper also mentioned the current prince, she couldn't help but feel a little curious, she didn't know the prince, why did the prince help her!
It's a bit weird.
Gu Liuxi also felt guilty about Gu Xiyan's death, if she hadn't used the agitation method to provoke Gu Xiyan to go with her, Gu Xiyan would not have been killed by those two female ghosts, she knew that the back mountain was very dangerous, but she still went, so she had to pay half of the responsibility for Gu Xiyan's death.
Just as Gu Liuxi was feeling guilty, a sudden gust of wind blew and scraped off the notice in front of her, the original clarification notice was followed by a notice to arrest her, the notice said that Gu Liuxi, the second lady of the Gu family, lost her conscience, killed her sister and fled, if anyone in the know knows her clues, a reward of 10,000 taels of gold will be offered.
Seeing this notice, Gu Liuxi really couldn't smile bitterly, it turned out that her worth was actually worth 10,000 taels of gold, it seemed that the Gu family really wanted to kill her at that time!
If it weren't for Chi Heng's help at that time, maybe she would not be able to wash herself by jumping into the Yellow River now.
At this time, a whirlpool suddenly appeared on the notice.
In broad daylight, a man suddenly appeared on the wall.
Gu Liuxi's eyes were so frightened that her eyes straightened, because that person was none other than Gu Xiyan, who was killed by the two female ghosts.
Gu Xiyan appeared on the wall covered in blood, looking at Gu Liuxi with sad eyes, desperately reaching out to her, but because something behind her was pulling her body, she couldn't get out of the wall.
Gu Liuxi wanted to scream loudly, but her scream was stuck in her throat, and she couldn't make it, so she could only stare at her big copper bell-like eyes in vain, looking at Gu Xiyan, whose face was distorted, and her face turned pale.
"Gu Liuxi save me, save me...... I was killed by Gu Yanshi's slut, she killed me and imprisoned my soul in a terrible place, Liuxi, save me, save me... I'm in so much pain..."
Before Gu Xiyan's words were finished, a black shadow appeared behind her, Gu Liuxi was frightened, and she didn't see clearly what the black shadow was, she heard Gu Xiyan let out a terrible scream, and then disappeared, disappearing along with the black shadow.
The wind gently blew the sign on the wall, and the whirlpool above had returned to calm as if it had never appeared.
Gu Liuxi seemed to have been splashed with cold water on his head, from his head to the soles of his feet.
Suddenly, a hand was placed on Gu Liuxi's shoulder, and Gu Liuxi's pupils shrank suddenly.
"Konishi, what are you doing here?"
Looking back, it turned out to be two maids in the prince's mansion.
The two little maids saw Gu Liuxi's face so pale, so they said worriedly, "Xiaoxi, what's wrong with you, is there something uncomfortable, your face is so ugly?" ”
Gu Liuxi calmed down, shook his head and said, "When did you guys come?" ”
The two maidens replied, "We saw you standing here alone for a long time before we came." ”
Gu Liuxi asked suspiciously, "Have you seen anything?" ”
The two girls shook their heads.
Gu Liuxi's heart suddenly moved, why did she see those strange pictures and hear those strange words just now.
