Chapter 497: Throwing Yourself into the Net
When he saw clearly that the person standing at the front was actually Guo Shixun, the master of the Civil Engineering Hall of the Loyalty League, Gongyu couldn't help but close his eyes in annoyance, and secretly scolded himself for being blinded by lard, which was simply stupid!
Since he had already guessed that Zheng Yong was planning to betray his people, and he had already expected that this traitorous eunuch would make people make a fuss in the secret passage, why would he choose to take this secret passage arranged by Zheng Yong a long time ago, and run to the territory of the Loyal and Righteous League to cast himself in the net? !
But now that I have come to my senses, it is too late to regret it!
Gongyu Sayan sighed secretly, then slowly opened his eyes, slowly got up from the snow, and walked over to help his brother Gongyu Sarong up.
Those of the Loyal Alliance still stood motionless, obviously waiting for their leader, Guo Shixun, to give the order to act.
But Guo Shixun always looked at the two brothers expressionlessly and didn't say a word.
In fact, the shock in the heart of the hall master at this moment was no less than that of the two brothers who had fallen into the siege.
Originally, according to the design of the chief steward Zheng Yong, whether these Beirong assassins succeed or not, Duxiaoqiong will try their best to cover Gongyu Sarong's escape, and will also leave Gongyu Sayan to those inner guards to solve.
Therefore, what Guo Shixun had to do was to lead people to guard the exit of this secret passage and capture Gongyu Sa Rongsheng alive in one fell swoop.
In this way, he, the master of the Civil Engineering Hall, has become a great hero in capturing the Beirong assassins, and his status in the alliance is naturally incomparable, so he has more strength to find an opportunity to overthrow Xue Youyou and seize the position of the alliance leader.
And another advantage of this move is that if Duxiaoqiong can escape from the palace, he will definitely try to save his beloved apprentice Gongyu Sarong. Of course, there is also the Tianxiang Sect Leader Feng Yan, who has also been thinking about getting Gongyu Sarong.
When the time comes, maybe you can borrow the hands of these two sect leaders to directly get rid of the snow and you.
Anyway, as long as there is chaos in the Loyalty Alliance, he, the master of the Civil Engineering Hall, can take the opportunity to fish in troubled waters and create all kinds of incidents in order to achieve his own goals.
But now, I don't know what went wrong, things didn't develop as expected, and the two Gongyu brothers actually escaped together.
In that case, the situation is very bad!
Although Gongyu Sarong also served as a spy of the northerners, and lurked in Dayu for a long time, this person has never stayed in the Loyalty Alliance, and he has never seen Guo Shixun, so of course he does not pose any threat to him.
But Gongyu Sayan is not. As Zuo Yusong's personal guard, he was already familiar with Guo Shixun.
And what is particularly terrifying is that he is likely to have learned the details of Guo Shixun from Zheng Yong a long time ago.
Out of revenge, this guy will definitely bite out Guo Shixun, who betrayed their brother to the Loyalty League, without hesitation in front of Xue Youyou.
And with the shrewdness and arbitrariness of the woman Xue Youyou, most of them would choose to believe Gongyu Sayan's words, and then order the torture hall to detain and torture him, the master of the civil engineering hall who was accused of serving Zheng Yong and also colluded with the Beirong assassins......
Thinking of this, Guo Shixun couldn't help but shudder. On a cold day, a dense layer of sweat appeared on his fat head.
Secretly in his heart, he had already made up his mind, no matter what, he must get rid of Gongyu Sayan immediately. Even if you can't catch Gongyu Sarong alive because of this, you can't let Gongyu Sayan have any chance to speak!
"Brothers, come on, you must not let go of these bitch Beirong assassins!"
With an earth-shattering roar, Guo Shixun had already taken the lead in rushing towards the two Gongyu brothers.
Among the people of the Loyal and Righteous Alliance who surrounded them, there were already a few who were Guo Shixun's cronies. At this moment, when they heard the order of his hall master, they immediately shouted along, and at the same time, they waved the blades in their hands and rushed forward after them.
Seeing this scene, Gongyu Sarong hurriedly said to his brother in a hurry: "Big brother, I'll block them, you quickly escape from the secret passage!"
In fact, Gongyu Sayan has also been thinking about escaping.
In his opinion, escaping directly into the secret passage is indeed the easiest and easiest way to escape.
But the exit at the other end of this secret passage is inside the city. Once you escape into the city, if you want to get out of the city, I am afraid it will be difficult to climb to the sky, and in the end, you will still not be able to escape the fate of being caught in the urn.
Therefore, it is absolutely impossible to escape through a secret passage.
Then there was only one way left, to break out.
At present, the bamboo forest where they are located is not large, and after leaving the bamboo forest, where should they flee?
To the north, it is Jingyang City, and to the south, it is the general rudder of the Loyalty League, which is equivalent to throwing itself into the net.
To the west, there is a wilderness, and to the east, there are deep mountains and dense forests.
Yes, only by fleeing eastward can it be possible to hide traces in the snowy night, avoid the search of the Loyal and Righteous League, and then find a way out to escape back to Darong.
Although he had already thought of an escape route, Gongyu Sayan had been hesitating and did not take action immediately.
Because in his calculations, his brother Gongyu Sarong was not included.
Gongyu Sarong's leg injury was extremely serious, and it was very difficult to walk, let alone flee with his life.
However, after the two of them experienced several life and death disasters together, Gongyu Sayan really couldn't do anything to abandon this brother and run for his life alone.
But he also knows very well that if he stays, there will only be one result, and that is to die with his brother.
Just when Gongyu Sayan was still hesitating, he suddenly heard Gongyu Sarong say that he would let him escape first, and in an instant, the idea of saving his life finally prevailed.
"Sassa, don't resist, let them capture you alive. I'll come back and save you!"
After whispering a word of advice to his brother, he quickly turned around and began to break through to the east.
And Gongyu Sarong also let out a loud shout, and swung his sword to meet Guo Shixun, who had already rushed over.
Seeing that the opponent was scarred, it was obviously the end of the crossbow, but Guo Shixun did not dare to be careless.
Because he knew that his martial arts were indeed above Gongyu Sayan, but this Gongyu Sarong's martial arts were much higher than his brother's.
And at this moment, in order to cover his brother's escape, this former deputy pavilion master of the Broken Sword Pavilion was still fighting the trapped beasts, and it was completely a desperate fight.
The more times like this, the more dangerous and abnormal it becomes.
And he, Guo Shixun, still wants to capture the enemy and make meritorious contributions, and seize the coveted position of the alliance leader, there is really no need to fight with this guy who doesn't want to die here.
Seeing Gongyu Sarong swinging a sword towards him, Guo Shixun did not advance but retreated, dodging and dodging.
Then, he shamelessly hid behind the other members of the Loyal Alliance, and although he was shouting and shouting, the people kept retreating without a trace.
After he retreated to what he thought was a safe distance, he looked around, only to find that Gongyu was gone.
Guo Shixun's heart couldn't help but be annoyed, and it was always extremely uneasy to see Gongyu Sayan die with his own eyes. If this guy is caught by someone else, he will still pose a great threat to himself.
But the matter has come to this point, no matter how annoyed it is, it is better to seize this opportunity in front of you first.
He immediately shouted: "Brothers, take this Beijung assassin alive!"
At this time, Gongyu Sarong also knew that his brother had successfully escaped, and he still remembered the words left by his brother before leaving, gave up resistance, saved his life, and waited for rescue.
Therefore, when he heard Guo Shixun express his intention to capture him alive, he simply threw the long sword in his hand to the ground and took the initiative to disarm and surrender.
Seeing this, those loyal to the Alliance all stopped attacking.
In this way, the two sides can be said to hit it off and are happy.
Guo Shixun immediately ordered someone to tie up Gongyu Sarong.
Then, he called his cronies aside and ordered them to immediately take people to chase Gongyu Sayan, and after catching up, he didn't leave a living mouth, just bring his head back.
After those cronies left with more than a dozen people, Guo Shixun took the rest of the people, escorted Gongyu and returned to the helm of the Loyalty and Righteousness League with pride.
