At this moment, I saw that the swordsman Mei Aoran turned back from afar, and when he got closer, Qin Gu greeted him and said, "Brother Aoran, have you found it?"

"Are you?" Mei Aoran felt sad in her heart, but she still tried to stabilize her emotions.

Peng Yi hurriedly stepped forward and introduced: "Master, these two are the seniors of Qin Gu Qin, and the ...... of Mo Langyue Mo's son."

"King of Qingzhou...... Qin Qingzhou?" Zhemei swordsman Mei's eyes lit up proudly.

Qin Gu smiled and said, "It's just not talented." ”

Mei Aoran suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Qin Gu's arm, and said excitedly, "Oops...... Brother Qingzhou, our brothers dreamed of learning martial arts face-to-face, but you suddenly lost your trace on the rivers and lakes, and it was many years in a flash. Now that I see you, I only pity my senior brother and he ......" Speaking of senior brother Liu Duozhi, Mei Aoran couldn't help but look gloomy, with tears in her eyes. But wandering around the rivers and lakes, such a life-and-death thing is an unavoidable and commonplace thing. After Qin Gu's gentle words of persuasion, Mei Aoran was sad for a while and sighed.

After settling down the willow branches, Mei Aoran reunited with the man and woman who were restrained. But seeing that Mei proudly looked at the two of them for a long time, and then reached out and picked her fingers on the woman's face, and removed a human skin mask as thin as a cicada's wings from her face. Surprisingly, under this woman's face was a real man's face, and it had almost the same facial features as the one next to him, and the white face was angular and angular, and Mei Aoran couldn't guess their age for a while, but it seemed to be very young.

After looking at it for a long time, Mei Aoran suddenly said hatefully: "I don't have to bother to find out where you come from, so I will send you to the Netherworld to avenge my senior brother!"

One of them suddenly said, "Slow down......"

Mei snorted proudly: "What, there are still last words?"

The man smiled nonchalantly and said, "Have you ever heard of the Valley of the Kings?"

Mei sneered proudly: "Could it be that you are from the Valley of the Kings?"

The other person said with a proud expression: "If we weren't from the Valley of the Kings, how could we solve the willow branches with one palm?"

"Don't be too proud of yourself, as far as your martial arts skills are concerned, how can you succeed in a sneak attack if you don't have three people together?

"You're going to kill us, and see how the Valley of the Kings reacts?"

When the man said this, Mei Aoran suddenly hesitated. The Valley of the Kings has always been mysterious enough in the rivers and lakes, and it is unknown whether it is good or evil. Legend has it that in the past few decades, many of the outstanding characters have come from the Valley of the Kings. Moreover, it is also rumored in the rivers and lakes that it is effortless to seek revenge in the Valley of the Kings, and if you hide to the ends of the earth, they can find you and make you beheaded. Thinking of this, Mei Aoran really couldn't do it. He is not afraid of death, he is not afraid of the Valley of the Kings, but he can't help but consider the safety of a pair of disciples!

Mo Langyue looked at Mei Aoran and hesitated, so she stepped forward and said, "Don't worry, seniors, these two are not from the Valley of the Kings!"

But seeing that the faces of the two changed, they scolded angrily in unison: "Ignorant child......"

Mei Aoran was a little surprised, and said, "Can Master Mo be sure?"

"Yes!"

"Nonsense!"

Mo Langyue said lightly: "You are really not, the Valley of the Kings can't raise people like you." ”

The more Mei Aoran looked at it, the more she felt that there was something wrong with these two people, did the people in the Imperial Valley have such pus, and just now she was really blinded for a while, so she gritted her teeth and said: "Mo Gongzi's words are always believed, so you don't have to quibble anymore!"

After that, Mei proudly raised the knife and fell, without giving the two a chance to speak out.

After disposing of the bodies of the two men, the two men got together again. Qin Gu and Mo Langyue led them through the grove and headed directly north. After walking a short time, they saw a small hill, and when they came to a low-lying place, they saw a cave with a faint light shining through.

Several people entered the cave one by one, and they were greeted by three men in prison clothes, two old men and one young man, who were sitting around and roasting on the fire. There was also a large black pot on the fire rack, and the meat was boiling in the pot, and the aroma was overflowing.

Hearing the sound of entering the door, the gray-haired old man didn't reply: "It's Brother Qin and Mo Gongzi who are back!"

Mo Langyue took a step forward and said, "Master Gu, it's not just us ......."

At this time, the four people behind him happened to be crowded at the entrance of the cave, and the old man just got up and looked back. When he saw the person who came, the old man was stunned, and in a blink of an eye, he became extremely excited.

"Yan Xi!"

Listening to the familiar hoarse voice, Gu Yanxi's body trembled and hurriedly threw herself into the old man's arms, burying her head and sobbing in a low voice. "Daddy......"

The old woman and the young man beside the fire also stood up, and the old woman was also excited, crying and laughing, and stepped forward to hug Gu Yanxi.

"Yan Xi, my child!"

"Mother...... Big Brother ......."

Gu Yanxi also stretched out a hand to hug the old woman, and the family of four was so tightly crowded together, and the warmth flowed and infected the people around them, and also made their eyes wet. It took a long time for the four of them to calm down, and they sat down around the fire again.

Gu Ziqi watched everyone sit down, and then carefully looked at a pair of children. Yan Xi, a well-behaved and sensible daughter who is away from home, although she is happy and excited on her face, her eyebrows can hardly hide her tiredness, these days must have made her suffer. and his arrogant son Yan Jin, who likes to wander around, seems to be sensible and calm overnight, and his many days of prison life have also made him retreat from a flashy childish spirit. Gu Ziqi's eyes slowly swept over the wife beside him, but people in their forties were born early, which was all dragged down by him.

After being silent for a long time, Gu Ziqi suddenly sighed heavily, and said with a wry smile: "I didn't expect that I, Gu Ziqi, have been an official for more than 20 years, and I have done my duty for the country and the people, but now I have been framed and ended up like this......"

Mei was stunned when she heard this, and said, "My lord was really framed?"

"If it weren't for being framed, how could my Gu family fall into such a field?"

"If someone frames you, who will it be?"

Gu Ziqi lowered his head and thought about it, then shook his head again and said, "Since I was imprisoned, the old man has been thinking about who will frame me, but the old man can't think of a reason after thinking about it. The old man is low-key, and he has been working as an errand in the local area, and he was only transferred to Beijing three years ago. ”

"How can you be framed if you haven't offended anyone? It doesn't make sense, it must be someone who the adults have neglected!"

Gu Ziqi frowned, lowered his head and thought about it for a long time, but he didn't find any signs, so he sighed and said: "The old man really can't think of anyone who has a personal grudge with him, it's common for officialdom to have left-handed opinions, these shouldn't be reasons!"

Qin Gu shook his head and said, "However, as far as Lao Er knows, as soon as Master Gu returned to Beijing three years ago and took up the post of the left attendant of the Criminal Department, the first thing he did was to start investigating the Jindan case of that year, and soon after, the truth of the Jindan case was also revealed to the world. Back then, Xiao Sibai and Xiao Ge were indeed wrongfully killed, and even the seventy-eight members of the Xiao family, all of whom were wronged. The truth of this case can be revealed, and the Xiao family has a clean and loyal name, you have made great contributions! Did you plant today's cause at that time?"

Qin Gu's mention of Xiao Sibai reminded Gu Ziqi of the past and made everyone present silent. The Jin Dan case ten years ago really shocked the government and the opposition, and the Xiao family was wiped out because of this, which was really tragic.
