Chapter 317: Reunion
Gu Shenwei didn't move, and at the last moment, suspicion came to persuade him to dispel his thoughts, even Shangguan Ru might become part of the trap.
Three years ago, she was still a child who loved fantasy, but after three years of house arrest and falling out of favor, who knows what will become of her? In front of the gate of the Four Noble Heavens, she rode a tall horse, heroic and sassy, and the ambition of the past still seems to remain in her heart.
People with great ambitions are never afraid to change their current self.
Gu Shenwei was hesitating on the roof, and there was a noise in the water lily on the opposite side.
A group of black-clothed people with knives, at least more than fifty of them, surrounded the mansion, and a group of them were only a dozen steps away from Gu Shenwei and the lotus girl.
The female corpse on the rockery was found.
After the ambush circle was built, several men in black knocked on the courtyard door.
It was too far away, and the night was deep, Gu Shenwei and the lotus girl couldn't see the situation clearly, and there seemed to be some disputes, and in the end, the man in black still went in as he wished, and soon came out again, acting in a hurry, as if he had learned a little lesson.
But they still confirmed that the dragon king was not here, and beckoned their companions to evacuate.
It's already the fourth watch, and it's going to be dawn if you wait any longer.
The Dutch girl whispered, "I'll go over there and have a look." "Quietly disappeared into the night.
Gu Shenwei jumped to the ground, rushed through the street at a very fast speed, jumped onto the courtyard wall of the Water Lily Zhai, and observed it for a while, and found that the light in one room was on, reflecting a vague figure.
Another night suddenly came to his mind, it was still the height of summer, the fragrance of flowers was floating, he jumped into the courtyard, picked up a stone under the begonia tree and knocked on Shangguan Ru's window.
There was also a tree planted in the water lily house, and Gu Shenwei unknowingly came to the tree, picked up a small piece of frozen snow, popped it up gently, and hit the window of the lighted room.
There was no sleepy little head poking out of the window, and the figure reflected by the lonely lamp did not move at all, but the door gently opened a crack, adding a touch of weirdness and waking Gu Shenwei from his fantasy.
He waited for a moment before slowly approaching the door, listened for a while, and flashed in with a knife.
Shangguan Ru sat at the table with his cheeks propped up, his other hand swiped around on the table, staring boredly at the dancing candlelight, the look on his face was both childish and naughty, and the elegance and indifference of a girl, as if he didn't notice that there was an extra man in the room.
Gu Shenwei regretted his decision very much, although there were no traps here, but there was no scene that he imagined and secretly looked forward to, but he always had to say something, "I'll ...... it"
He didn't know what he was going to do.
"Xiao Chu and the little girl surnamed Tie are both here with me. ”
Gu Shenwei was so surprised that he couldn't speak, he thought it was just a lie to deceive the Dragon King into the net, but he didn't expect it to be true.
"You'll take them away later. Shangguan Ru still didn't look at him, as if there was a big secret hidden in the flickering candlelight, and asked her to keep looking, "The two of them are not familiar with Beicheng, and I don't worry about letting them go around." ”
"Thank you. Gu Shenwei spit out these two words with difficulty, and his heart was a lot easier.
"Hmm. Shangguan Ru replied lukewarmly, his gaze did not move a bit, and Gu Shenwei could only see sparks jumping from those two pitch-black eyes.
The two didn't speak for a while, and Shangguan Ru didn't call Chu Tie and the others out, she seemed to be thinking about her own thoughts, and the dragon king who made Biyucheng frightened was still no different from the previous Huan slave, and he was her henchman and minion, so she didn't need to pay special attention.
The anger in Gu Shenwei's heart gradually rose, raised his head slightly, and said coldly: "Call them out, I will repay you this favor, but don't have too high expectations." ”
"Because my surname is Shangguan, am I also your enemy?"
"That's right, you're my enemy, not only because of your surname, but also because you betrayed those two Roc birds, who are also my relatives. ”
Shangguan Ru seemed unmoved by this sentence, but her fingers scratching around the table stopped, and after a while, she said: "I have always wanted to apologize to you, and the red-capped roc that followed you is their child, I also want to apologize to it, I didn't know how cruel death was at that time, killing and poking brought happiness to my father, and it also brought me happiness at that time." But that's not the point, you have the right to revenge, you can do it now, I promise, no one will come out to stop it. ”
Gu Shenwei held the handle of the knife tightly, but the knife was like a rooted rock, and it couldn't move a bit, "I won't kill you today." He said, finally finding an excuse for himself, "As a reward for you handing over Chu Nanping and Tie Linglong." ”
Shangguan Ru suddenly turned his gaze, looked at her Huan Nu for the first time, the dragon king in the eyes of everyone, and showed a familiar smile, "Is this the real you? You used to be acting, right? Living in the enemy's castle and serving the enemy's daughter must be very uncomfortable." ”
This seems to be a blatant provocation, facing Shangguan Ru, Gu Shenwei gave birth to a real murderous intention in his heart for the first time, "I can bear it, because I know that it will pay off in the end." ”
Shangguan Ru had an apologetic look on her face for saying the wrong thing, she didn't understand why she would say such hurtful things, maybe she was obsessed with the trust she had given when she was young and ignorant, she gave Huan Nu the only opportunity in her life to trust others, but he became the strange man with a pale face in front of her.
The apology is fleeting, she is proud, even if she is forced to get used to women's clothes, even if she has hardly touched a real knife for more than three years, she is still proud, "This is exactly what I want to say to you, you can take revenge, but your revenge must be limited, I will not allow you to kill innocents indiscriminately, not all people with the surname Shangguan are guilty." ”
Gu Shen laughed angrily, three years of house arrest has probably solidified this girl's temperament forever at the age of fourteen, she still thinks that she is the tenth son, and he is a close Huan slave, "I forgot, you have also been practicing Wudao Divine Skill, I hope your kung fu has not fallen, and when you fight to the death, I also have an opponent." ”
Hearing the dragon king's ridicule, Shangguan Ru's eyes showed a trace of compassion, it was difficult to say who this mercy was for, "I won't kill, I won't kill anyone, I've tasted enough of the pain caused by killing, I just hope that one day you can also understand this truth, not now, your revenge is not over, but I don't want you to go too far." ”
"No one can stop me. Gu Shenwei unconsciously raised his voice, and his face became grim, this was exactly the awe-inspiring demeanor of the swordsmen of the Great Snow Mountain, "The road of revenge is endless, and only death can end this." ”
The man in front of her was terrifying and strange, Shangguan Ru couldn't believe that he was the same person as Huan Nu, but the pride and ambition in her heart were also aroused, she couldn't kill anyone, but she wouldn't bow to any threat because of this, so she stood up and said in an almost cold tone: "I will prove to you that there is another way in the world." ”
The two of them glared angrily, and the red light of the fire danced in their eyes, as if it would erupt at any moment.
Shangguan Ru couldn't help laughing at first, this was not the Huan slave she was familiar with, but it was a more interesting character, how many years, she had never been so happy in her heart.
Gu Shenwei was annoyed by her abnormal behavior, "Don't you believe that I will kill you?"
This is a stupid question, Gu Shenwei regretted it when he said it, many years ago, he understood the ridiculousness of false words and intimidation, and he didn't expect to blurt it out at the most inappropriate moment.
"Believe. Shangguan Ru stopped laughing, but there was a smile on her face, which made her more like three years ago, "You are the Dragon King, kill people without blinking, I am waiting for you to do it." Take your people away and tell them to stop breaking into the Stone Fort, I don't remember doing such a reckless stupid thing at our age. ”
Shangguan Ru was only two or three years older than Chu Tie and the others, but her tone of voice was like an experienced veteran of the rivers and lakes, and Gu Shenwei remembered very clearly that she had done a lot of stupid things, many times more than these two teenagers.
Gu Shenwei's pale and stiff face shook a few times, it was that he was barely holding back a smile, looking a little weird, he quickly adjusted his mood, "How could Mrs. Meng allow you to take the two of them down the mountain?"
"Let the two of them tell you. ”
There was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and before anyone appeared, Shangguan Ru quickly added, "Thank you, help me solve a big problem." ”
Gu Shenwei wanted to ask, if Meng Mingshi hadn't died at the gate of Jinpeng Castle, what would she do?
A maid came in with Chu Nanping and Tie Linglong, and Gu Shenwei could only swallow the words back.
The appearance of the two is very strange, Tie Linglong is wearing the costume of the manservant of Jinpeng Castle, if it weren't for the green eyes, there is still a little resemblance to Shangguan Ru when he was a child, but Chu Nanping is wearing a girl's clothes, which actually fits very well, Gu Shenwei almost didn't recognize it at first sight.
Chu Nanping was cramped and uneasy, feeling ashamed of his appearance.
Tie Linglong didn't care, and when she saw the Dragon King, she immediately exclaimed, and then lowered her voice, "Dragon King, I knew you would come." ”
Gu Shenwei wanted to reprimand the two of them fiercely, but now was not the time, he just ordered: "Follow me." ”
Tie Linglong shouted in a low voice, but when she saw Shangguan Ru sitting at the table and not moving, she became surprised and disappointed again, "Sister Ru won't come with us?"
"Nope. Shangguan Ru smiled and said, "This is my home, and besides, I am an enemy of the Dragon King. ”
"Enemy?" Tie Linglong became more and more surprised, "How is it possible? The Dragon King is not here to find you......
"Let's go. Gu Shenwei took the lead out of the house, and Chu Nanping followed.
Tie Linglong looked left and right, hurriedly threw down the sentence "I will persuade the Dragon King to change his mind", and left with him.
As soon as he jumped out of the courtyard wall, Chu Nanping immediately ripped off the flower ornament on his head, and was about to throw it away, but was snatched away by Tie Linglong, who caught up later, "Don't throw it around, do you want to leave a clue?"
The lotus girl did not appear, and Gu Shenwei knew that she was nearby, so he did not look for her, and quickly withdrew from Beicheng with the two of them.
Beicheng was heavily guarded, and if it weren't for Gu Shen to lead the way for someone who was familiar with the situation, it would indeed be difficult for the two of them to escape safely.
The three of them remained silent along the way, Tie Linglong was anxious to tell about his adventure with Chu Nanping, but Gu Shenwei was in no mood to listen, when he returned to the Dragon King's Mansion, the morning light on the horizon was slightly dewed, and the cover of the night was lost, and the boundary between the north and south cities was completely revealed, and no one could fly around.
Shangguan Ru's words were right, Gu Shenwei thought about it, they were enemies, he always knew it, but sometimes he didn't want to accept it.
