Chapter 721: Picking
Shangguan Ru was very drunk, and looked at the Dragon King with a smile, as if he understood and didn't seem to understand, "Where are you going to let me go?"
Gu Shenwei lowered his gaze, and immediately raised his eyes to look directly, "Go back to the country of incense, never take a step." β
"The Dragon King is going to put me under house arrest?" Shangguan Ru still had a smile on his face, as if the Dragon King was joking with her.
Gu Shenwei's expression was serious to the point of being a little cold, "If you think it's house arrest, even if it's it." β
"What if I don't want to go back?"
"I'm going to kill you tonight. β
Shangguan Ru laughed loudly, extremely happy, attracting the attention of many people, she suddenly made a bold move, grabbed Gu Shenwei's hand, and ran towards the outside of the camp.
The night was dark, but after getting used to it, it felt amazingly bright, it was not as clear as daytime, but a certain obscure white, like diluted milk, close at hand and relatively indistinguishable from far away.
Shangguan Ru stopped suddenly, let go of Gu Shenwei, bent over and vomited. After a while, he straightened his waist, turned his back to the Dragon King, took out a towel to wipe his mouth, turned around and smiled: "You are the first person to see me vomit, let's change places." β
"You should ......" Gu Shenwei wanted to persuade her to drink less, but he felt that he was not qualified to say such things.
Shangguan Ru ran deeper into the night, and Gu Shenwei followed closely behind.
She was tired, hiding on the grass, looking up at the starry sky, "Are you really the dragon king?"
Gu Shenwei stood a few steps away and was stunned when he heard this, "Yes, someone can look like me, but they can't imitate their every move." β
Shangguan Ru let out a long sigh and stretched out his hand to point to the Milky Way in the sky, "Look, the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl." β
"Hmm. Gu Shenwei didn't look up, the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl meet once a year, and they will never meet.
But Shangguan Ru thought in his heart that there was nothing to do with it, "Don't you think that the Cowherd took a big advantage, he was punished by the Queen Mother, but he changed from a mortal to an immortal, and he didn't even need to cultivate, and those monks and Taoists died of jealousy." β
"You're drunk. Gu Shenwei was a little annoyed because he couldn't keep up with her train of thought.
"You took me out to drink, aren't you allowed me to get drunk?" Shangguan Ru turned sideways, his right hand was on his head, and his face was full of happy smiles, "You haven't seen me when I'm even drunker, and Old Man Mu will tell you later." β
"He will return to the land of incense with you. β
"No, he doesn't like that place and prefers to venture with you. And once he recovers his strength, he will kill people everywhere, I can't stand it, so I'll leave the trouble to you. β
Gu Shen was very happy and the topic turned here again, "Many people in Xiaoyaohai voluntarily moved to the country of incense, it should be almost now, you can close the passage, I will order someone to destroy the passage in Wushan, and no longer use a single soldier of the country of incense." β
"You've never rested, have you?" Shangguan Ru's ability to divert the topic was almost comparable to Han Fen, and his expression was half joking and half serious.
"Of course I've rested, I'm not a ......"
"Now is the time to rest. Shangguan Ru interrupted him, "I understand what you mean, so you don't have to explain." If this is the last time we get together, I want to remember the stars in the sky, not the land of incense. β
Gu Shenwei suddenly found that the drunk person was actually himself, he spit out the wine in his stomach, but did not dispel the drunkenness in his blood, he insisted on talking about the country of incense, but he wanted to get her understanding.
This kind of behavior is meaningless, he wants to restore the true nature of the dragon king, but it turns out to be farther and farther away.
Gu Shenwei sat on the grass, his body stiff and slowly lay down. In summer, the weeds are thick and prickly, and it is uncomfortable to stick on his back, but when he lies down completely, he feels that this is the most comfortable bed in the world. The weeds were not completely subdued, and a force lifted him under him, like in the clouds.
Shangguan Ru lay down on his back again, stretched out his arms, and Gu Shenwei made the same pose, their fingertips half a foot apart.
"Will Boy Rain become a star in the sky?"
Shangguan Ru's question once again surprised Gu Shenwei, "No." He replied categorically.
"Your heart is so hard. β
"If Shangguan turns into stars when it rains, and sees us lying on the grass like this, you should fall from the sky and stone me to death, leaving you alone. β
"Haha, look at what you said. Shangguan Ru's laughter didn't last long, "I miss her so much." β
"We all have people we miss. β
"Who are you missing?"
"My father, who was very strict and indulgent to me, my mother, who was always sick, my two older brothers, who bullied me a lot, and my sister, who was the best person in the world to me. Gu Shenwei slowly clenched his fists and uprooted the two small clusters of weeds.
Shangguan Ru found herself pushing open the wrong door, but she decided to continue, "And that pair of Dapeng birds. β
"Well, they're like relatives to me. β
"IfβI mean ifβthe Demon Bird really exists, and it's your Roc Bird......"
"I'm not going to let anyone touch a finger on it. β
Shangguan Ru was silent for a while, "Remember, I told you that those old people want you to take away the demon bird?"
"Hmm. β
"They found the carcasses of some beasts, and the eyeballs were gone. β
"You don't want to mention the land of incense, but you want to discuss the Roc Bird?"
"Hey, although there are many stars, they are monotonous. Well, let me think, think about happy things. By the way, the eighth sister-in-law...... Luo Ningcha came to me, so I have to talk to you about Cheng'er. β
"She loves stupid ideas, and she doesn't have a word of truth in her mouth. β
"But she's also beautiful, and I've never seen a man who has no interest in her. β
"We've been laid. Gu Shenwei said bluntly, feeling that this topic was not happy at all.
"I know, Xu Yanwei told me, of course it's not too straightforward, she probably thinks I don't understand. β
Xu Yanwei couldn't control his mouth. β
"She's a nice person, and she's very, very loyal to you. Shangguan Ru deliberately emphasized this point, "She is still very chivalrous, although she doesn't know martial arts, she is still a ...... Remember the girl. β
"Do you know what chivalry is?" Gu Shenwei was slightly disdainful, this would never be taught in Jinpeng Castle.
"Listen to what you told me. Shangguan Ru's eyes lit up, "When the road is uneven, he draws his sword to help, he knows that he can't do it, and he values righteousness more than his surname......
"You mean Xu Yanwei is nosy, right?"
"Hehe, aren't all knights nosy?"
The two chatted nonsense, neither of them knew what to say next, and the words flowed out of their mouths naturally. Shangguan Ru suddenly remembered Luo Ning Tea again, "Luo Ning Tea asked me to talk to you about Cheng'er, probably because I once said a word." β
"What?"
"When I was in Shibao, I once accidentally said that Cheng'er didn't look like a person from the Shangguan family, and Luo Ningcha was still very unhappy at the time, saying that the baby was like something, and it was like growing up. β
"She wanted to imply that the child was mine, so that I would be driven by her to help her fight for power. β
"When she saw King Dubu, she probably had something else to say. β
Luo Ningcha would definitely do such a thing, Gu Shenwei didn't care, but couldn't help asking, "You don't care at all?"
"What do you care about?"
"Ronin tea. β
"I live in a comfortable nest, and you hide in the enemy's house, and you will die at any moment, so I can't care. Shangguan Ru's tone was relaxed. She used to care, and it was only after she was abandoned by her family that she slowly changed her mind, but now, she had to be so calm with a sense of drunkenness.
"I approached you to follow Shangguan Fei at that time, not only to protect myself, but also to kill the two of you when necessary, Shangguan Yushi's vigilance against me was actually correct. β
Shangguan Ru turned around again and propped his head with his hands, looking at his silhouette, "I should be sad to be deceived by the most trusted person." But you never killed me and my brother, and you didn't do it when the time was best, and I'm a little proud. β
"Pride?"
"Pride I still changed your opinion a little. β
Gu Shenwei sat up suddenly, this was his biggest concern, "You are not the only one who has changed me, but no one has changed the real me, let me draw a clear line: Jinpeng Castle must perish, I once wanted to kill everyone in the castle, even every animal, but now I know that it is pointless to do so, I will kill the Dubu King, as well as the green face and assassins who are loyal to him." You don't need to try to change me anymore, I won't slaughter innocents, even if his surname is Shangguan. Do you think you have changed my opinion? Fang Wenshi, the old Khan King, the monk, Dugu Xian, everyone around me is qualified to say this. β
Shangguan Ru looked at him in surprise, and gradually showed a look of compassion, as if she was really possessed by Monk Fayan, "You are lying. β
"Hmph. Gu Shenwei stood up, lying on the grass was very comfortable, but standing made him feel more at ease, "Don't think you really know me." β
Shangguan Ru also stood up, laughed, and cried, then wiped away his tears and said in an aggressive tone: "Didn't you lie when you assassinated my future husband? When Xiaoyaohai took me and my brother in, didn't you lie? When you persuaded me to stay in the country of incense, didn't you lie? You...... Didn't you lie?"
She pointed to her lips, and in her heart she didn't believe what the Dragon King said, only the fleeting passion in the camp of the close attendants.
The two glared angrily, like enemies about to fight a duel.
"So you're my obstacle, so you have to get out of here and never show up again. Gu Shenwei despised his weakness, he should have cut off the emotions in his heart more coldly and directly, but he still became entangled.
"Do you think my purpose is just to protect the innocents of the Stone Castle and the Shangguan family?" Shangguan Ru asked loudly like an enraged little beast, his body tensed tightly.
"King Dubu must die if he follows Guan Yun. "Gu Shenwei will not give an inch.
"Okay. Shangguan Ru softened first, "Let's make it clear, I have hurt you, but I have also helped you a lot, especially in the battle of Xiaohai, if it weren't for the female soldiers I trained, you would be defeated." β
"I haven't forgotten. Gu Shenwei's voice also softened, Shangguan Ru saved him more than once.
"Can I ask for something in return?"
Gu Shen hesitated for a moment, "Yes, as long as I can do it." β
"Of course you can. β
"Say it. β
"You killed my husband, drove me back to the remote country of incense, and told me so many lies, so ......" Shangguan Ru felt very bold, but there were still some things that he couldn't say.
Gu Shenwei walked over in two steps, with anger and **.
