In order to exterminate the Iron Mountain, the Central Plains side has been planning for a long time, and the public excuse is Wei Lingmiao's death.

Wei Song pointed his hatred at the Meng clan in Beicheng, but the Central Plains claimed that the instigator behind the scenes was the big-headed god, which was nothing, and the forces of all parties in the Western Regions often accused each other, mostly staying in words.

In late July of that year, less than two months after Wei Lingmiao was killed, 5,000 officers and soldiers from the Central Plains went to the battlefield, and 16 other Western Regions client states provided the same amount of military support.

Even at this time, the big head god still thinks that the war can't be fought, although there are 10,000 people in the Central Plains army, there are more than 5,000 people on the Iron Mountain side, and they are well nourished, waiting for work, including the killers and swordsmen of Jinpeng Castle, and it is a force that cannot be underestimated, and he thinks that he can explain clearly to the Central Plains that Iron Mountain has nothing to do with Wei Lingmiao's death.

At the critical moment, Shangguan angrily betrayed his father-in-law, and there are different opinions on the specific situation, some say that the two of them had a big quarrel, and the big head god was assassinated that night, and it is also said that the two did not quarrel at all, and discussed how to fight the enemy together during the day, so good that it was the same as the father and son, the eight young masters suddenly got into trouble, and a hundred killers rushed into the big tent and killed the big head god and the leader of the iron mountain.

In any case, one thing is certain, the big head god died at the hands of his son-in-law, perhaps not by Shangguan Nu himself, because it is rumored that the big head god was extremely brave, and he killed hundreds of enemies with iron spears before being hacked to death with a random knife.

As soon as the big-headed god died, the Iron Mountain camp was leaderless, either fleeing or surrendering, and the number one bandit gang that had been crisscrossing the Western Regions for more than ten years disappeared.

The details are always infinitely exaggerated, and Gu Shenwei believes that Shangguan Nu must have used the safest method to assassinate the big-headed god, and maybe he will be drugged in advance.

Iron Mountain fell, and suddenly, the Central Plains army had come to the border of Biyu City, which was the first time in many years, and many people suddenly understood that the bandits were actually the guardians of the city.

The Central Plains did not immediately withdraw its troops, and the purpose of the next step was not disclosed, Biyu City was in chaos, rumors about the army slaughtering the city were rampant, and some people even fled to the Shule Kingdom in the west with their families, and more people waited for the attitude of Jinpeng Castle.

Jinpeng Fort was surprisingly silent, as if this matter had nothing to do with him, and the residents under the mountain came to Shibao in groups to petition and inquire, but Dubu Wang just didn't speak, and for five days in a row, Biyu City suffered the feeling of imminent disaster.

Five days is enough for Gu Shenwei to do a lot of things, he knew a long time ago that Shangguan was angry and wanted to betray, and the Central Plains would exterminate Tieshan, and he thought about the consequences of the incident for a long time, so he reacted faster than everyone in the stone castle.

As soon as the news of the death of the big-headed god was confirmed, Luo Ningcha fell into a hysterical frenzy, crying from morning to night, breaking everything that could be moved, whipping every servant for a while, and begging everyone to protect her.

After causing a lot of trouble to Huan Nu and the Lotus Girl, Luo Ningcha still regarded the two of them as the most trusted people, forced them to swear to stay with her forever, and then ordered them to go to the Iron Mountain camp immediately to find the big head god who might still be alive.

The next day, more news came, the big head god turned out to have died at the hands of Shangguan Fu, Luo Ningcha was completely crushed by the news, did not make trouble or shout, hid in the bedroom, and even lowered her voice when she spoke, she pondered a strange idea, thinking that the whole incident was a conspiracy of Jinpeng Castle, and as soon as her father died, it would be her turn next.

Luo Ningcha did not allow the servants and killers rationed by the stone castle to enter the backyard again, and summoned all the people he brought from his mother's house to guard outside the house, while several personal maids and two killers stayed in the house, and every once in a while, Gu Shenwei and the lotus girl had to go out and jump on the roof to check to confirm that there was no assassin, so that the young lady could feel at ease for a while.

In fact, Luo Ningcha doesn't need to worry about her own safety, most people have forgotten her at all, and Jinpeng Castle's silence is not intentional, the second young lord Shangguan Tian, like everyone, was blinded by this unexpected news, panicked, and issued a number of contradictory orders one after another, one will declare Shangguan Nu a traitor, and the other will want to negotiate with the Central Plains through the eighth brother, the killers are supported back and forth, I don't know what the purpose is, it is the strategists of the White Courtyard who pressed these ridiculous plans, and did not let Jinpeng Castle show cowardice in front of outsiders.

Shangguan Tian's only reliable plan was to wait for his father's instructions.

Dubu Wang's divine skills have not yet recovered, but he has to personally solve the crisis in front of him, but he did not show up immediately, but watched coldly, and secretly arranged, that is, in the five days that he was a cold bystander, Jinpeng Castle was reluctant to speak out, and Gu Shenwei took the opportunity to solve a series of problems.

The first thing he did was to rescue Chu Nanping.

On the afternoon of the day when the news of the Eighth Young Lord Shangguan Nu defecting to the Central Plains came, Shen Liang's position as the sword master was deprived, he was Shangguan Nu's own uncle, and in the eyes of the second young lord Shangguan Tian, he was tantamount to a traitor planted in the castle by the Central Plains.

In the chaos, Shangguan Ru received the order to release the people, and went to the prison of the Washing Heart Courtyard with Huan Nu.

Gu Shenwei left Luoning Tea in the name of patrolling safety.

When the sword master fell off the horse, the attitude of the executioner immediately became different, and he flattered the ten princes even more than the most slippery servant.

Before entering the torture room, Gu Shenwei heard a familiar voice, "Hey, what's wrong today, don't come to wait for the uncle, my whole body is itchy, Xiao Chu, are you itching?"

"Not itchy, a little hungry. ”

"I'm laughing at them, can't you cooperate?"

"Oh, then I'm a little itchy, but I don't want to be tortured again. ”

"Do you want to confess?"

"I don't confess, and I don't want to be beaten. ”

Xu Xiaoyi turned out to be here, Gu Shenwei immediately understood, Shen Liang deliberately hid the news, he wanted to wait until the last moment to throw him out, but he didn't expect that something happened in the middle, and he was imprisoned first.

A pair of good friends have been tortured to the point that they don't look like people, Xu Xiaoyi's eyes are swollen into a slit, and he didn't even recognize Brother Huan at first, in just a few days, the scars on Chu Nanping's body are no less than those of the killer.

The first thing Xu Xiaoyi said when he recognized Brother Huan was, "I didn't say anything, and neither did Xiao Chu." ”

"I know. Gu Shen wanted to wrap the two of them in a cloak, personally drove them down the mountain, and entrusted them to the most trusted person.

Xu Xiaoyi persisted for a few days, and finally relaxed, and fell asleep in the car, before going to bed, he asked Chu Nanping, "We are friends of life and death, do you still want to kill me?"

Chu Nanping thought seriously for a while, "According to the ruthless swordsmanship, the more painful it is to kill you, the more complete the break, the better it is for practicing swordsmanship, if Yang Huan is willing to practice swordsmanship, I still have to kill you." ”

Such ruthless words, fortunately, Xu Xiaoyi didn't hear it, Xiao Chu was still analyzing his feelings, and he was already asleep.

It was late at night when Gu Shenwei returned to the stone castle, Luo Ningcha hadn't seen him for a few hours, and he was already about to go crazy, either suspecting that he was plotted by the enemy, or thinking that he had betrayed Mrs. Meng, and wept bitterly in front of many maids, reprimanding Huan Nu for being ungrateful, and then welcoming him back with ecstasy.

Gu Shenwei said a lot of insincere words to comfort her, and when she finally quieted down, she motioned for the maids to retreat, leaving only the lotus girl and the green girl.

At such a sad moment, Luo Ningcha did not forget to wear a veil and sit behind the screen, Gu Shenwei could only see a faint figure.

"Miss, now is not the time to be sad, we have to find a way to protect ourselves. ”

"What else can be done? You said that a woman's status comes from her father and her husband, but my husband killed my father, and I have nothing but to be slaughtered. It's all your fault, teaching me messy things, offending all the people in the fort, everyone wants me to die, and no one will protect me. Luo Ningcha had not fully regained his senses, and his voice was full of anger, ready to "offend" the last few people around him.

"That's why we've got to figure it out. Gu Shenwei remained patient.

"You have a way!" Luo Ningcha almost shouted this sentence, suddenly stood up, and continued in an unprecedentedly soft tone, "You have a way, don't you?" Huan Nu, good Huan Nu, tell me quickly, I will reward you with all the treasures." ”

"It is imperative to obtain the understanding of Madame Meng, who has the power in her hands and can decide the life and death of the young lady. ”

"Yes, you go and tell Madame that I am willing to apologize, and it is okay to apologize in public. ”

"I can go and say, but Mademoiselle must hand over the plank first. ”

If you change people, you will always think that the wooden board is the only bargaining chip in your hand, and handing it over is equivalent to waiting to be killed, Luo Ningcha's mind was already completely confused, and he was defenseless at all, so he hurriedly agreed, "In Lao Zhangna, I let him hide in the stable." ”

Luo Ningcha's mind was high and low, Gu Shenwei was surprised by her again, the groom Lao Zhang was a servant in the stone castle, who would have thought that the wooden board would be handed over to him? And it was unbelievable that Lao Zhang could be trusted by the young lady.

"I'll be right back. Gu Shenwei exchanged glances with the lotus girl and asked her to stay.

In the middle of the night, Lao Zhang still didn't sleep, he stayed in the stable alone, taking care of the only two remaining horses, and the other horses were taken away by the eighth young master, I don't know if there is a chance to come back.

"Lao Zhang, I'll pick up what Miss handed over to you. "Lao Zhang once helped him, and in Gu Shenwei's eyes, he was one of the few good people in the stone castle, so he didn't want to use martial arts to force him, so he tried to be as polite as possible.

The old man did not raise his head or speak, but reached out and touched the manger for a while, and handed over the last plank.

Gu Shenwei took the plank and said, "Thank you." ”

The wooden board was wrapped in several layers, the outermost part was yellow silk, and the inside was linen, soft paper, and silk handkerchief.

Gu Shenwei's heart moved, stared at Lao Zhang for a while, put the wooden board in his arms, and returned a few layers of silk cloth, "I don't need these things." ”

Lao Zhang didn't say a word, snatched it at a very fast speed, put away the silk handkerchief, and threw other things aside.

"Have you seen the real face of the young lady?"

"Be nosy. Lao Zhang struggled to stir the hay, speaking viciously, but his face was red, and he couldn't even hide the night, "It was an accident, the young grandmother wants to ride a horse, I ...... You're nosy. ”

Gu Shenwei's heart was even more geneatic, he not only thought of a way to save himself for Luo Ningcha, but also filled in an important link for the plan he had been conceiving.
