Chapter 9: The Oolong Incident

Time flickered, five days passed, but Xue Thirteen was confused.

The true yuan in his body was still a trace away from being able to condense the second wisp and break through the realm of the peak of the martial arts one heaven, but Gu Meng and a few others never appeared, making Xue Thirteen puzzled, and he was very puzzled in his heart.

"There is still a trace to condense the second wisp of true yuan, but this last trace has not yet shown signs of forming. It seems that we need to find some external force. ”

Xue Thirteen thought about it in his heart, he understood that he had finally encountered a bottleneck, and there was no point in sitting dry.

There was a knock on the door, and Xue 13 sensed it slightly, and after confirming that it was Gu Laoba, he opened the door.

After Gu Lao Ba rushed in, he said excitedly and breathlessly: "Thirteenth Young Master, something big has happened, it's a big thing!"

Xue Shisan was confused when he heard this, and pointed to a teacup on the table, the tea in it was full, and the temperature was moderate, and motioned for Gu Lao Ba to take a sip of tea first, slow down, and speak slowly.

After drinking it all in one gulp, Gu Laoba's messy breathing calmed down slightly, revealing a mouthful of sparse big yellow teeth, and said, "Thirteenth Young Master, it's a big deal, haven't you always wanted to know the news of Young Master Meng and the three of them?"

Listening to Gu Laoba's narration, Xue Thirteen was directly stunned.

Those three gentlemen had been in their original room all along, and they were only found this morning, and they were already dying?

"You don't know, it's incredible. After the three young masters were carried out, they all lost weight several times, and their eyes were green with hunger. Supposedly, if it weren't for some snacks in your room, they would have starved to death. ”

Gu Laoba said.

The reason why Gu Meng and the others did not appear for nearly ten days was finally revealed at this moment.

It's just that this kind of result is something that Snow Thirteen couldn't even think of when he broke his head.

"What's going on, let's talk about it specifically. ”

Xue 13 said.

"I heard that he was an assassin, and his skills were very high, and he assassinated Young Master Meng twice. The first time, they were asked to lie in their room for four days, and the second time, until now. ”

"That method is really clever, the fierce young master and several people died in pain, and they couldn't find the slightest injury on their bodies, it was definitely the work of the master. ”

Gu Laoba said, making Xue Thirteen's face more and more solemn.

Suddenly, his heart moved, and he thought of an incident eight or nine days ago, that day, Gu Laoba said that the second lady Gu Ling'er went out and came back to teach Gu Yang, who was guarding the door, a lesson, because this person was drunk and dozed off during his duty.

In the evening, her maid Fluttershy goes out again and returns late at night.

It's just that when did the second young lady Gu Ling'er pay so much attention to the family's affairs.

"What is Gu Yang's origin?"

Xue Thirteen suddenly asked.

Gu Laoba was stunned, thought for a while, and then said: "Gu Yang used to be a man in the rivers and lakes, but he was later hunted down by the enemy, rescued by the great elder, brought back to the family, and has been guarding the door in the clan. ”

After hearing this, Xue Thirteen pondered for a moment.

"This is the Gu family, the masters are like clouds, and the Holy Martial City under the Gu family mountain gate is owned by the Gu family's forces. Who could be so bold as to dare to assassinate the children of the Gu family? With so many masters in the clan, how did he get in?"

Snow Thirteen seemed to be talking to herself.

After Gu Laoba heard this, his eyes widened, this guy is not afraid of death, but he is a shrewd villain, and his mind is very lively.

Thinking of Gu Yang that Xue Thirteen said just now, hearing his words at the moment, and then thinking of the assassin.

"Thirteenth Young Master, you mean...... Are the assassins against you? do you suspect ......?"

Xue Thirteen snorted coldly: "Go to my room, naturally you want to assassinate me." And the assassin who can enter the Gu family is obviously impossible, and no one has such courage, the only explanation is that the people of their own clan did it. But the only people who knew that I had left the original room were Gu Meng and you, so it was obviously not Gu Meng's assassin hired by them. ”

"Second Miss Gu Ling'er, why did she replace the guard Gu Yang that day, and why did her maid return late at night on the night of the assassination?"

"Gu Yang is my master's person, and the reason for replacing him is to avoid being leaked any clues, so as not to be found out after the master comes back. And her maid returned late at night, which was naturally convenient for bringing the Assassins into the clan. ”

"A few days ago, I asked you to report to me every day on the affairs of the clan, and nothing else was found, but now that I think about it, only the second lady Gu Ling'er and her maid Fluttershy behaved a little abnormally that day. Coincidentally, I bumped into their sisters again two days ago, and because of Master, the head of the family seemed to force them to come and apologize to me, but I was unconscious at the time, and you told me. ”

"Besides her, who else will send the assassin?"

Snow Thirteen said coldly.

This......

Gu Laoba was dumbfounded when he heard this, he became more and more in awe of the young man in front of him, and he actually analyzed the matter in an orderly manner after a little thought.

Is this still a fifteen-year-old boy? What a terrible mind?

"Yes...... But why didn't they find out that they had hit the wrong person twice?"

Gu Laoba asked.

Xue Thirteen sneered: "If you want to assassinate me, you must bear the wrath of my master." She Gu Ling'er probably didn't dare to say it explicitly, so she didn't explain it clearly, so she made such an oolong incident. ”

Gu Laoba thought about it, felt that it made sense, and nodded secretly.

"Do you know who the Assassin is?"

Snow Thirteen asked in a deep voice.

"Listen...... I heard that the Nine Elders suspected that they were the killers of the Black Building, and only their people could hurt people invisibly, silently, without alarming the family masters. ”

Hearing this, a cold light flashed in Xue Thirteen's eyes: "Killer?"

Originally, I thought that Gu Ling'er was just a little more coquettish and domineering, but I didn't expect that her mind was so vicious that she actually hired a killer. Do you want someone to beat me up and give me a fatal blow after I have suffered so much?"

Invisibly, Xue Thirteen's body exuded a cold aura, which made Gu Laoba beside him tremble.

Good...... What a terrible killing machine!

Gu Laoba said secretly in his heart, looking at Xue Thirteen's gaze, full of fear.

"However, she also indirectly bought me some time, otherwise I would have been in a difficult situation these days. ”

"I'm very curious, I don't know what the second young lady Gu Ling'er will have when she knows about this matter. What would be the mood of the idiot Ninth Elder who was guarding the short to know that it was the Second Young Miss who had harmed his precious grandson like this. ”

"Gu Laoba, how much silver do you have in total?"

Snow 13 asked.

Yes?

This guy didn't expect Xue Thirteen's train of thought to jump suddenly, and he didn't react for a while, and after Xue Thirteen asked again, he said in a hesitant manner:

"The slave has worked hard for most of his life, saving money and saving money, and he has only saved a total of ...... Five thousand taels. ”

"Five thousand taels? Ordinary people have never seen so much silver in their lives, and you are still too little of a minion?"

Xue Thirteen couldn't help laughing and scolded, it seems that this guy usually eats a lot of oil and water, but Xue Thirteen doesn't bother to care about these, anyway, it's all the Gu family's silver, and it has nothing to do with him.

"Take all your money and come down with me. That straw bale nine elder should be distressing about his grandson now, he won't pay attention to me here, and the guards should have been transferred a lot indiscriminately, you should have a way. ”

"Ah, Thirteenth Young Master, you want to leave the Gu family, but the Gu family is huge, even if you leave the family, you can't escape. ”

"Don't talk nonsense, I don't know this, if you want your little life, just do it. ”

Snow Thirteen commanded.

......

Gu Laoba usually has a lot of ways, and it didn't take long for him to get ready.

Xue Thirteen disguised himself as a miscellaneous disciple and was taken out of the family by Gu Laoba.

"Young Master, where are you going?"

Walking on the way down the mountain, Gu Laoba asked with a sad face.

The Gu family is located on the top of Tianwu Mountain, which is a mountain peak with the strongest power of heaven and earth within a radius of thousands of miles.

After coming to this world, this was the first time Xue Thirteen had gone out, looking at the lush forests around him, listening to the birds, beasts and insects, he was in a good mood.

"I need a hundred-year-old ginseng, a phoenix snow chicken, a yellow essence that is more than 50 years old, and blue silver grass, anchovy flowers, ......"

Xue Shisanyi said a lot of medicinal herb names in a row, which made Gu Laoba's heart tremble.

"Young master, these other medicinal materials are easy to say, but hundred-year-old ginseng and yellow essence more than fifty years old are not easy to buy......

Gu Laoba said with a bitter face.

"The Shengwu City under the Gu Family Mountain is one of the few top cities in the Yan Kingdom, will there be no such thing as a hundred-year-old ginseng? Don't feel sorry for your little money, as long as you do things for me, your benefits will be indispensable in the future, that is, it is not impossible to turn your five thousand taels of silver into gold. ”

Xue 13 sneered, ignoring Gu Laoba's reaction, and walked on his own.

When Gu Laoba heard this, his body shook violently, and a pair of small eyes suddenly lit up.

"Also, if I'm not mistaken, the toxin of the Ten Day Intestine Breaking Pill in your body is about to expire, without my antidote, after the sun rises tomorrow morning, within a quarter of an hour, you will be able to protect your liver and intestines, and you can't die again. ”

Xue Thirteen's voice floated in, making Gu Laoba tremble.

"Thirteenth Young Master, ...... you"

"I only have one poison on me, and I gave it to you, but there is no antidote. This time, I originally planned to buy the medicinal materials for you to refine the antidote, but if you are really reluctant to spend money, then forget it. ”
