It was the second watch of the night, and Gu Shenwei returned to the mansion of the Kongtong faction in the city, and it was Huang Jinfu who stood at the door to greet him.

"Is your wrist better?" asked Gu Shenwei as he walked.

"Huh?" Huang Jinfu seemed to have woken up from a big dream, this day was full of incredible miracles for him, and he couldn't accept it all until now, "Okay...... It's better. ”

Huang Jinfu shook his hand, indicating that there was no problem.

"There will probably be guests coming later, just let him in, no need to report, and don't stop him. ”

"Yes......" Huang Jinfu replied blankly, swallowing his saliva, feeling that the bad luck of the day was still not over.

Zhou Yuqing stood in the middle of the courtyard, and the old fairy said that the Dragon King would come, and sure enough, he guessed it again, "The Dragon King ......"

"Please call me Gu Shenwei, this is my real name. ”

Directly addressing the other party's name seemed very blunt, which made Zhou Yuqing, who was familiar with the rules of the Central Plains, very uncomfortable, and coughed before saying, "Gu Jun, please, the family teacher has been waiting for a long time." ”

Zihe Zhenren sat cross-legged on the chair and closed her eyes to recuperate, Han Fen sat on the side and held her cheeks to watch, she couldn't find the whereabouts of Gu Shenwei and Huo Yun, so she had to stay here.

The real person opened his eyes and smiled: "From Kongtong Mountain to the capital, it is more difficult to see you than to see the emperor." ”

Gu Shenwei arched his hand and said: "There is Lao Zhenren suspense, the matter is very special, and I have to hide my whereabouts." ”

Gu Shenwei walked to Han Fen's side and gently knocked on her head, Han Fen's arm shook and almost fell off the chair, she just opened her eyes and fell asleep, looked up at Gu Shenwei, and said in a daze: "You're back, did you buy meat?"

"I bought it, but I can't eat it now. ”

Han Fen completely woke up at this time, gave up his chair, and stood aside to yawn and wipe his saliva.

Zhou Yuqing couldn't control the curiosity in his heart, stayed by the old immortal's side, kept staring at Gu Shenwei, and felt that this dragon king, who was more than ten years younger than himself, did have a bit of a different temperament, but to say that he once created an army to dominate the Western Regions with his own strength, it was a bit different, as a former king, he was serious enough, but he lacked the domineering and commanding nobility of life and death.

Maybe the Western Regions are different from the Central Plains, Zhou Yuqing thought, and his mind turned to what he wanted to know most: what was the Dragon King doing during the time he disappeared? Why did the old immortal stand so firmly on the side of the Dragon King?

Gu Shenwei sat down, "Where to start? It's better for a real person to ask questions." ”

The real person grinned, suddenly became depressed again, and touched the top of his bare head, "The last bit of hair, I don't know when it will grow, without it, how can I be an 'old fairy'? ”

Zhou Yuqing moved his steps awkwardly, raised his hand and touched his nose, worried that the changes of the old immortal would become deeper and deeper, and then he turned his mind to the Dragon King, "Those killers from the Western Regions, did you bring them? Lin Xiaoshan, as well as Chen Jinke, a disciple of this sect, are not in your hands?"

There are many questions, but these two are the most acute.

Gu Shenwei's gaze turned to the senior disciple of the Kongtong Sect, Zihe Zhenren spent a lot of energy to win his trust, but he was still unfamiliar with these two people, and his visit tonight was to resolve this strangeness.

"The killers of the Western Regions are from Jinpeng Fort in Biyu City, when King Dubu was killed six years ago, a small part remained in the fort and is still there, and the other part fled all over the place, some participated in the war in Biyu City, and some went into hiding. According to the information I received, about three years ago, when the war gradually subsided, the Jinpeng killers began to flow to the North Garden, and they rarely showed up in the grassland, so they disappeared. Until two months ago, they appeared in the northern part of the Central Plains and committed several crimes, all under the name of 'Dragon King'. ”

"I haven't heard of it. Zhou Yuqing said in surprise that the assassination he knew of had first taken place in a small city near the capital.

"Well, not many people know about it, and the locals don't know who the dragon king is, so the news doesn't spread widely. ”

Then the killers moved to the capital. ”

"That's right, they have done a few more cases outside the city, which have attracted the attention of the city, especially King Xiao and the concubine Pang Jing, they entrusted your faction Fan to solve this matter, and you all know the rest of the matter. I did come to the capital for Lin Xiaoshan, but unfortunately, I was one step late, and it was my fault. I'm still looking for the whereabouts of him and your faction Chen Jinke, and there are not many clues yet. ”

Fan Yongda went out with Zihe Zhenren last night, and he didn't come back after that, the old fairy didn't mention it, and Zhou Yuqing didn't ask.

The Dragon King gave a description, and Zhou Yuqing had a hard time judging whether these words were credible, except for removing his relationship with the killer from them, the Dragon King did not reveal more information.

"Dragon King...... Gu Jun has been living in seclusion in Kongtong Mountain for the past few years, but he knows a lot about the Central Plains and the Western Regions. ”

Gu Shenwei glanced at Zihe Zhenren, "Six years ago, Tu Gou introduced me to Kongtong Mountain, I think he should have made it very clear in his letter: I am not here to live in seclusion, but I just promise that no one will track down the Kongtong faction through me." ”

But the Kongtong faction was still implicated, and Zhou Yuqing was slightly angry in his heart, but Gu Shenwei's words were true, it was not him who led the disaster to the Kongtong faction, but the mysterious force that had not revealed his true face so far.

"In the Central Plains, there are a few people who collect information for me, Lin Xiaoshan doesn't count, I have never bothered him. Qin Yeming went out to the mountain once a year to collect information, and I originally wanted to take another two or three years before I started the operation, but the situation forced me to go out of the mountain in advance, and I think this is also one of the purposes of the killer master. ”

"Action, what does this mean?" Zhou Yuqing was very concerned about this.

Gu Shenwei glanced at Zihe Zhenren again, becoming more and more interested in this ancient old man, and then said flatly: "I want revenge, it has always been like this." ”

"Who is your enemy?" Zhou Yuqing's voice involuntarily became stern.

"This is one of the things I've been investigating for a couple of years, and there's progress, but I haven't finalized it yet. ”

"But they're all from the palace, right?"

"Mostly. Gu Shenwei didn't deny it, but he didn't name him either.

"Hmph. Zhou Yuqing no longer had any other questions, but he was even more worried in his heart, "Master, does the Kongtong Sect have to wade into this messy water? ”

"What?" Zihe Zhenren seemed to have really fallen asleep, his expression was as confused as Han Fen just now, "Ah, you also have questions about being a teacher, I think--let Gu Shenwei ask, maybe his doubts are similar to yours." ”

Zhou Yuqing knew that his task was completed, took a step back, and quickly made a preliminary judgment on Gu Shenwei: this is a person who is outspoken but also good at concealment, as if he has told many secrets, but in fact, the most important details are hidden, and he must be cautious and cautious in dealing with him.

Zhou Yuqing wanted to avoid him, although he only had a two-sided relationship and had no in-depth contact, the senior disciple of the Kongtong Sect, who was very experienced in seeing people, felt a certain paranoia from Gu Shenwei, especially the casual tone of this person when he talked about revenge, which seemed to indicate that he had a plan, and it would not be easily leaked, nor would it be changed because of anyone.

"Wait, I have one more question. Zhou Yuqing took another step, and after obtaining consent from the old immortal, he said: "I have heard for a long time that Gu Jun has a divine sword blade that is unparalleled in the world, I wonder if you can see it?"

Gu Shenwei thought for a while, untied the narrow knife on his waist, pulled out the knife from its sheath, and placed it on the table, which happened to be clearly illuminated by the light.

Han Fen also came up and looked carefully at the knife she was very familiar with, "Well, it needs to be sharpened." ”

Zhou Yuqing didn't care about this, he recognized that this was the knife that Gu Shenwei stabbed Luo Shaoxiong that morning, but-"This is an ordinary knife." ”

"Hmm. Gu Shenwei put away the knife, "The Wufeng knife was given away by me, and it is not in my hand." ”

He pulled out his knife just to confirm this matter, Zhou Yuqing stepped back again, and added another item to Gu Shenwei's judgment: This is a person who does not hesitate to give away the most cherished personal weapon in the martial arts, it must be to achieve some kind of purpose.

Thinking of the rumors that the Dragon King had inexplicably left Biyu City, leading to a war among his subordinates for several years, Zhou Yuqing was more sure of his judgment.

Gu Shenwei turned to Zihe Zhenren, "My question is indeed very similar to that of Zhou Jianmen, Zhenren allowed me to hide in Kongtong Mountain, I am very grateful, but Zhenren's enthusiasm is indeed beyond my expectations." ”

The real person seemed to take this sentence as a compliment, and looked up and asked Han Fen: "Aren't there many people who can make Gu Shen exceed expectations?"

Han Fen shook his head firmly, "No, it's just you." ”

The real person smiled happily, his short hair was scattered, there was no fairy spirit, but it was a little weird, "This is a long story, I'll try to keep it short." When I heard about the assassination in the palace, I thought that the death of Prince Xiao was just an add-on, and the real target of the killer was that unknown nobleman. But you are a person who wants to take revenge, and you wiped out Jinpeng Fort in the Western Regions with great fanfare, why are you silent this time? Forget about secrecy in the palace, there is no need for Gu Shenwei to keep it secret. ”

The person who nodded the most diligently was not Gu Shenwei, but Zhou Yuqing, and the old fairy's analysis was very reasonable.

The real person's brows furrowed again, he didn't like to explain, it would require organizing the language and consuming what little brain power he had left, "The main messenger of the palace assassination is not you, naturally there is another person, this person deceived Fan Yongda, kidnapped Chen Jinke, and tried his best to pull the Kongtong faction into this conspiracy, what choice can I have? The Kongtong faction is unprepared for this crisis, I know some old guys, at most they can delay the disaster, but they can't eliminate the suspicions of the rivers and lakes and the court." So I only have one way to go, since the person who was framed together is the Dragon King, the Kongtong faction has to join forces with the Dragon King, and the Dragon King has been paying attention to these things, and is much more prepared than us. Anyway, I want to take advantage of you, don't you mind?"

"I don't mind, since it's a team, we have to have the value of using each other, and the real person is the partner I expected. ”

The real person turned his head and said to the apprentice: "Hear, we are partners with Gu Shenwei, if you disobey my orders again, I will beat your ass." ”

Zhou Yuqing blushed, he hadn't fully accepted the old immortal's decision, because the conversation between the two people was too straightforward, lacking the respect of the rules of the rivers and lakes, it seemed very informal, and there was also the issue of revenge for Gu Shenwei, which would be a bigger trouble sooner or later, but he still said in a low voice: "Yes, the disciple doesn't dare anymore." ”

Gu Shenwei suddenly got up, holding a knife in his right hand, "The guest is here." ”

Zihe Zhenren sighed, "Alas, they said that there would be an explanation tomorrow, but they just didn't want to wait." ”

Huang Jinfu stood at the door in despair, he obeyed Gu Shenwei's instructions and did not stop the visitors, but he was still frightened.
