Chapter 228: Father and Son
On the night when the third young master escaped from the dungeon, Gu Shenwei was preparing to force Luo Ningcha to hand over the last plank by force.
In the second half of the night in midsummer, the insect chirping gradually stopped, Gu Shenwei put on a full set of night clothes, and was sitting on the bed thinking about how to do Luo Ning tea, when he suddenly heard a not very clear whistle in the distance, which was a signal for the stone castle killer to exchange news.
Gu Shenwei jumped out of the house, and the lotus girl who took turns to protect the young lady appeared almost at the same time as him, "You stay." Gu Shenwei said, jumped on the roof, and ran to the inner house.
The whistle quickly stopped, and it didn't wake up a few people, and there was not much reaction in the inner house, only those who were familiar with the killer rules and patiently observed could see black shadows passing by from time to time, all running in one direction.
It was at this time that Gu Shenwei knew that Shangguan Yun had escaped from prison, and it had been five days since he sent the wire saw, and the third young master didn't know what he was thinking, so he delayed for so long before acting.
Gu Shenwei temporarily changed his mind and sneaked all the way to the courtyard where Shangguan Fa lived, and Luo Ningcha, who was dreaming, never thought that he would escape a disaster because of this.
Gu Shenwei has been waiting for Shangguan Yun to make a move, which is more important than getting the "Book of No Dao".
The guards around Dubu King were not as strict as Gu Shenwei had imagined, and the whistle just now had some killers removed, but he still took every possible ambush before climbing up to a roof, shrinking into a shadow, merging with the ridge.
Did Shangguan Yun come directly to take revenge, or did he have another long-term plan, or even simply escape? Gu Shenwei had only met the third young master twice, and he didn't know much about him, but he was extremely sure that Shangguan Yun would choose the first plan.
The strength is all gone, and there is no better chance of revenge than at this time, Gu Shenwei hopes that Shangguan Yun can do it for him, at least to test the details of Shangguan Va.
If it was three years ago, Gu Shenwei would have killed the enemy with his own hands no matter what, but now he sees his revenge from the perspective of a killer, and is more willing to kill people by the safest means.
Gu Shenwei was engrossed in observing, but he still didn't keep an eye on Shangguan Yun's traces, and when he found the third young master, he didn't know how long the other party had been standing under the tree in the middle of the courtyard.
Shangguan Yun was still wearing old clothes from prison, holding on to the trunk of a tree with one hand, looking at the "hot room" where his father lived.
The killers in charge of the guards also discovered the abnormality, they would not ask, let alone shout and scream, the three of them, the narrow knives were unsheathed, fan-shaped, and slowly approached Shangguan Yun from behind.
Shangguan Yunwen didn't move at all, as if he didn't notice anything, until the killers were about to make a move within seven steps, he preemptively counterattacked.
Shangguan Yun stretched out his arms and turned around suddenly, bringing a gust of wind to roll up a few fallen leaves on the ground, and the dense leaves on the trees made a chaotic sound.
The killers were hit by the blades, flew upside down, fell heavily to the ground, and never got up again.
Although it was a little far away and the moonlight was not very bright, Gu Shenwei could still see at a glance that the killers were not dead, but just fainted, or were hit by the acupoint.
Shangguan Yun still didn't want to kill people, Gu Shenwei thought to himself, probably in the end, he would have to clean up the mess by himself.
This small battle alarmed many people, black shadows rushed from all directions, just a few steps away from Gu Shen, there were two killers, fortunately, their attention was on Shangguan Yun in the courtyard, and they didn't notice the lurkers who were close at hand.
"Stand down. There was an order in the hot room, it was the voice of the Dubu King, and the killers who surrounded him quickly retreated, as neat as when they came, and in the blink of an eye, only the two vengeful people in the courtyard and on the roof were left.
"Your heart is still so soft. ”
Dubu Wang pushed open the door, wearing the wide robe, his expression was majestic, but he had already shown a twilight color, Gu Shenwei had the impression that Shangguan Fa was extremely tall, even the last time they met, he seemed to be able to fill the whole house, and now, looking from afar, it was an ordinary old man with a scrawny and strong self-support.
Do it now, don't delay, don't talk nonsense, the killer on the roof really hopes to be able to control the avengers under the tree, and stuff this idea into his mind, but unfortunately, Shangguan Yun still spoke, his voice was full of hatred, but he was wasting the most precious opportunity.
"The parrot is dead. ”
"Parrot, man or bird?" Shangguan Fa looked a little impatient, as if a debater had been waiting for an opponent of equal strength for a long time, but after meeting him, the opponent's first sentence was not sharp, which greatly disappointed him.
"You don't remember her?"
"That woman? remember, how many years have you loved her son when she wanted to kill her father?"
"Not ever. Shangguan Yun's sleeves swelled like balloons, the leaves rattled again, and everything within a few steps of him seemed to be eager to float.
Dubu Wang did not retreat but advanced, and took a step forward, "It's just so murderous, it's not as good as the apprentice of Dongbao, don't you blush?"
Shangguan Yun made a move, and countless stones rushed towards the Dubu King under the coercion of the wind.
Gu Shenwei's joy only lasted for a moment, and he immediately understood that this was just a false move, the stone passed by Shangguan Fa, and crackled on the doors and windows, the momentum was amazing, but there was no real lethality.
Shangguan Fa looked at his son almost contemptuously, "In another month, you will lose the opportunity to kill me forever, aren't you impressed?"
In the face of his father's agitation, Shangguan Yun calmed down, his voice returned to its previous appearance, gentle and peaceful, with a little cynicism, Gu Shenwei could even imagine his mischievous smile with the corners of his mouth upturned, so he began to think about whether he should kill Dubu Wang by himself.
"There is always a chance, you can kill me all the time, aren't you soft-hearted?"
"It's my dream to have all ten children. ”
"Haha, 'Cross becomes king', do you still believe in Peng Xianren's nonsense?"
It turned out that Shangguan Va's superstition came from Peng Xianren, and Gu Shenwei remembered that Shangguan Yun had said that Dubu King had practiced martial arts with that dwarf, and he couldn't help but wonder more and more, why didn't Shangguan Fa kill Huan Nu? Letting go of a killer because of his daughter's few words is not like what Dubu King has always done.
"Peng Xianren is a liar, but fortune-telling is still very accurate. ”
"The eldest brother is dead, the fourth brother is also dead, and even the Peng Xianren who told your fortune is dead, haven't you woken up from your dream?"
"I know, it's okay, my son can still have another life, but that young man is ruthless, and I hope that one of my sons can be like him. ”
The father and son actually talked about Huan Nu, and Gu Shenwei's heartbeat accelerated slightly.
"Hey, son like a killer, the first thing to do is to kill you first and take the throne. ”
"Will the people of the Shangguan family be afraid of this kind of thing? I'm just afraid that my son is not ruthless enough to keep the title of Dubu King. ”
"So you're going to torture me and force me to be as cold-blooded and ruthless as you?" Shangguan Yun's voice became stern, and Gu Shenwei remembered that the appearance of the third young master at this time was almost exactly the same as the Dubu King opposite.
"That's right, among all the sons, you are the most like me, not only in appearance, but also in the same temperament as when I was young, so I indulged you in wandering the rivers and lakes, and guided you into the proud building, thinking that sooner or later you would continue to walk along my path, but unfortunately you are too addicted to a comfortable life, and you will really fall in love with a woman. ”
"You're not allowed to mention her!" Shangguan Yun's cuffs bulged again.
"Why not? The woman, called Parrot, isn't it? I began to think of her, her skin was as tender as water, she kept begging in my arms, it was a little fresh at first, and it was a little annoying to hear too much, and I taught her a lesson......"
The wind was so strong that even the killer lurking on the roof felt a gust of wind pass by.
But just as Gu Shenwei expected at the beginning, Shangguan Yun missed the best opportunity, maybe there was never the best time, Shangguan Yun chose to go straight to the door to challenge, instead of a cautious assassination, showing a desperate madness.
The four green faces suddenly appeared, as if they had come out of the wall, waved their knives in front of the Dubu King, and then disappeared.
Shangguan Yun really made a killing move, one move missed, and the second move was immediately issued, but he only moved his fingers, and was hit by the green face that fell from the sky.
The green man who had been hiding under the tree was a dead hand, but his knife was a little slower, and instead of cutting off his head, he only cut a deep scar on the enemy's chest, which was fatal to himself.
Shangguan Yun slapped his palm on Qingmian's face, his mask shattered, and the assassin was like a fallen leaf, his body leaned backwards, paused in the air for a moment, and fell heavily to the ground.
The blood on his chest was gushing out, Shangguan Yun's legs were weak, and he knelt on the ground, no one could kill Dubu Wang, even if he lost all his skills, he was protected by a loyal green face.
"You're the only one who has two chances to kill me. Shangguan Fa said coldly, his son was speechless, "You should be glad that my murderous intent has weakened due to my scattered efforts, and I don't want to kill as much as I used to." However, I am very happy to see that you have finally opened the killing ring, and I am disappointed to see that your martial arts have not improved, and you have been stabbed by the green face. Cherish your hard-won little life, go back to the dungeon to spend your life, and don't let me see you again. ”
Shangguan Yun shook twice, slowly fell down, and rested his head on the corpse of the green face.
Gu Shenwei waited for a long time, until Shangguan Fa retreated into the room, the killers had dealt with the scene, and when the night was about to end, he cautiously returned to the Eighth Young Master's main courtyard.
If you want to kill the Dubu King, you have to bypass those green noodles, and Gu Shenwei hasn't figured out a way yet.
It was Huan Nu's turn to "protect" Miss, but the lotus girl nodded at him, saying that she could hold on to another shift, she never asked Huan Nu what she did, and was the most ideal assistant.
Gu Shenwei began to think about whether to ask the Duhe girl to help before falling asleep, there is still a month, Dubu Wang will recover his strength, miss this golden opportunity, Gu Shenwei will not forgive himself, at least try once, if he can lure Dubu Wang out of the inner house...... His thoughts drifted farther and farther, and he remembered that when the eldest young master died, Shangguan Fan had appeared at the funeral, but the fourth young master did not get this kind of treatment.
Gu Shenwei slowly figured out a clue, what he lacked was a suitable bait.
