Foreman Shi Dehui seemed to be very satisfied with Gu Xu's attitude.
He patted Gu Xu on the shoulder, said "Good job, Huzi", then turned and walked away.
Zhao Yan could hardly hold back the urge to laugh.
In order to hide her expression, she had to cover her face with her hands and pretend to cough twice.
“I didn’t expect you to be so talented in acting,” she commented to Gu Xu through divine voice transmission, “I’m very curious, if Master Shi knows that the famous wanted criminal Gu Xu had appeared in front of him and talked to him, what kind of expression would he have on his face?"
"I'm also curious," Gu Xu responded, imitating her tone." If Leader Shi knew that the future Lord of Dayan had bowed his head and saluted him, he would be so scared that his eyes would pop out."
Zhao Yan snorted and punched him twice. Down.
When this situation fell into the eyes of others, it became a pair of rough and tough comrades fighting with each other in their free time.
Then the two continued to move forward.
Occasionally, soldiers passed by them and took the initiative to greet them, shouting "Brother Huzi" and "Brother Bing".
Gu Xu didn't know them, but he talked to them without changing his expression, saying things like "The weather is nice today", "The situation is really tense recently", "I'm going to stand guard and won't talk to you." ” and other nonsense.
Soon the two arrived at the pass of the ancient Great Wall.
The gate is locked.
Gu Xu frowned slightly, took a step forward, and put his hand on the door knocker.
The moment he touched the door knocker, a golden light suddenly enveloped his body. He knew that this was the formation checking his identity.
He looked calm and accepted the inspection of the formation calmly.
Then, the golden beam fell on Zhao Yan again, sweeping from the top of her head to the tips of her toes.
After confirming that there was no problem with the identity of the two people, the heavy door slowly opened to both sides, revealing the world on the other side of the Great Wall before their eyes.
Beyond the gate, there are green trees and mountains.
For Zhao Yan, the other side of the door is her familiar home; but for Gu Xu, it is a completely unfamiliar country.
He took a deep breath and walked through the doorway first.
Zhao Yan followed him closely.
If they are the real "Chai Hu" and "Zhong Bing", then they need to stand upright here and play the role of "door gods".
But as two fugitives, as soon as they entered Youzhou, they invariably used their skills and rushed towards the more distant mountains and forests.
The ancient Changyuan and the white background golden dragon flag of the Daqi Dynasty fluttering in the wind on the wall were quickly left behind by them.
After running quickly for several miles, they stopped and removed the spells that disguised cause and effect.
Today’s action seemed to be too smooth, which made Gu XuSuspected that I was dreaming.
But then he thought about it, he and Zhao Yan both had the means to hide their whereabouts, and it was difficult for the government monks to find their exact location; and the Youzhou border was hundreds of miles long, with rugged terrain and large areas. It is almost impossible for the Qi court to cast a wide net and set up ambushes everywhere along the entire border. After all, both of them are not weak. Sending monks below the sixth level to catch them is basically equivalent to returning without success.
Besides, there are very few practitioners in Dahuang who understand the way of cause and effect, so it is difficult to be prepared for Gu Xu's disguise spell.
"Welcome to Dayan," Zhao Yan straightened her hair that was blown by the wind and looked up at Gu Xu, "a little further on, there is Shimen County. I can go there. I'll get you some barrier-breaking pills."
A ray of early morning light passed through the canopy, illuminating the area around her eyes. The moment when the morning sun overlaps with her childish hole, it is like the fireworks blooming on the Lantern Festival night, bright and beautiful.
Perhaps because she came to a familiar place, the worry on Zhao Yan's face disappeared and was quickly replaced by confidence.
"Thank you very much, Miss Zhao." Gu Xu responded with a smile.
While speaking, he felt that in his sea of
consciousness, the talisman named "Hui Lu" suddenly shone with light, and then a fiery power came like It gushes out from the talisman like spring water and merges into his meridians.
Gu Xu felt a little surprised.
He knew that this mysterious power originated from the worship and worship of "Hui Lu" by believers.
But the problem is that he is in Youzhou at the moment, far away from the headquarters of the Changshou Sect, and the Changshou Sect was wiped out by the Qi court a long time ago. The surviving "Huilu" believers now Very few.
"Could it be that I underestimated the influence of the Changshou Sect back then?" Gu Xu secretly guessed.
But at this time, he remembered that when he helped Zhao Yan awaken the power of blood, he had felt a close connection between the Karma Fire Sutra and the Nirvana Sutra.
His "Hui Lu" talisman also corresponded to Zhao Yan's "Holy Fire Totem".
So he boldly guessed that maybe the "Hui Lu" of the Changshou Sect was not a god made up out of thin air. She most likely had an unknown origin with the "Fire God" believed in by the Great Yan Kingdom.
The mysterious power he absorbed at this time probably came from the believers of Dayan's "Fire God".
Luojing City, Princess Mansion.
Princess Zhaoning Xiao Wanjun stood in the attic, staring at the map posted on the wall, frowning.
From the officials' reports, she learned that Gu Xu did appear in Jingxing as predicted by the fortune teller Mu Yunkai.
But she did not expect that Gu Xu could escape smoothly after being rounded up by several fifth and sixth realm monks.
"Zhao Yan, the daughter of the traitor Zhao Changying, suddenly appeared next to Gu Xu and rescued him," Zhu Qiuyi, the commander-in-chief of Hedong Province, told her, "She seems to have mastered something that can confuseMind, a magic weapon that hides your whereabouts. After they escaped, we lost track of them. "
"Zhao Yan" Princess Zhaoning muttered the name silently.
The sudden appearance of Zhao Yan was not unexpected. She had long suspected that Gu Xu and Zhao Yan had secretly formed an alliance and participated in the rebellion of Yan Guogong Zhao Changying. After all, the two of them stayed together for a long time on the day when Luo Jing City was destroyed.
If not, how could the father be? Gu Xu would be charged with "treason" without warning
But she didn't expect that after so many days, Zhao Yan was still in Daqi and had not returned to Youzhou.< /p>
In addition, according to the descriptions of the officials, Zhao Yan’s combat effectiveness seems to have improved to a higher level, and she can fight against the sixth realm monks without falling behind.
“It’s really a headache. . "Thinking of this, Princess Zhaoning sighed silently.
Gu Xu was already difficult to deal with. Now that Zhao Yan appeared, she felt even more anxious.
She turned and walked out of the attic and came to the main hall of the princess mansion.
A young woman wearing a light green skirt was already waiting here quietly.
This woman was tall and tall. She has a slender waist, skin as white as jade, and is as elegant as a chrysanthemum.
It is Shangguan Jin, the exorcist doctor.
Yesterday afternoon, Shangguan Jin visited the princess's house and expressed his apologies. He said in a tone of voice, "Your Royal Highness, Luo Sishou was seriously injured in the battle in the imperial city. He is still in bed recuperating and is temporarily unable to serve the imperial court.
"So, he specially sent me to your house to help as much as possible in arresting the traitors."
Shangguan Jin's words surprised Princess Zhaoning. different.
In the eyes of a mortal like her, a saintly and powerful man like Luo Chuan, the leader of the Exorcist Department, has always been an unfathomable, almost god-like existence. She never expected that he would be so seriously injured.
But she still accepted Shangguan Jin’s help without hesitation.
As the personal assistant trained by Luo Sishou, Shangguan Jin must be more familiar with the personnel and affairs within the Exorcism Department than she is.
"Your Highness, have you discovered the whereabouts of the traitor Gu Xu recently?" Shangguan Jin asked in a concerned tone as soon as he saw Princess Zhaoning.
Her voice is light and soft, giving people a feeling of spring breeze.
“Not yet,” Zhao Ning
The princess shook her head, “I have been thinking recently about where he and Zhao Yan will try to escape from, and how many we need to send. The monks will stay there in advance."
"Actually, I don't think we need to set up ambushes everywhere to surround them," Shangguan Jin thought for a moment and said.
"Why"
"Both of them are very good at hiding their whereabouts and have endless methods. If we want to arrest them, we will definitely consume a lot of resources and even spend a lot of money. A small price to pay.
“And it’s hard for us to tell what’s going on around them.Will there be other helpers from Youzhou? "
Hearing the word "price", Princess Zhaoning immediately thought of the blind fortune teller Mu Yunkai, and couldn't help but nodded slightly, deeply convinced.
"Then what good plan does Shangguan Langzhong have?"
"Since their destination must be Youzhou, then we can start directly from Youzhou," Shangguan Jin said seriously, "In the battle of Luojing, The leader of the thieves, Zhao Changying, was severely injured by the power of thunder and was unlikely to recover in a short time.
“Despite the fact that those Youzhou bandits are full of enthusiasm and want to join forces with us.
“But in fact, they must be very eager to get some breathing space.
“Furthermore, after experiencing a setback, there must be many people in Youzhou who are not of the same mind as Zhao Changying. These people are afraid of Daqi’s strength and may even consider surrendering to us in exchange for peace and security.< /p>
"Perhaps, we can try to negotiate with them, give them a little benefit, add a little bit of deterrence, and ask them to hand over Gu Xu.
"Gu Xu is not a native of Youzhou. Most likely, he was recruited by Zhao Changying just because of his outstanding talent.
"Youzhou people may swear to protect the children of the Zhao family. But he would never fight for an outsider like Gu Xu. ”
Princess Zhaoning narrowed her eyes slightly and pondered for a long time.
She knew that the confidence that Youzhou dared to rebel lies in the fact that Zhao Changying broke through the eighth realm and became the "true king".
But Zhao Changying is still seriously injured.
Except for Zhao Changying, the strongest monk in Youzhou is only at the sixth level.
Under such circumstances, facing Da Qi's intimidation, will they still fight to the death to protect Gu Xu?
"What you said makes sense," Princess Zhaoning nodded slowly after being silent for a while. Said, “Just do as you say. ”
While speaking, Mu Yunkai’s bleeding eyes came to her mind again.
The power Gu Xu showed during his escape has far exceeded hers. Unexpected.
She felt that perhaps by following Shangguan Jin's suggestion, the Da Qi court could reduce some unnecessary losses.
After receiving Princess Zhaoning's response, Shangguan Jin bowed. She resigned.
She walked through the courtyard, walked out of the mansion, and came to the street paved with bluestones.
She stopped in the middle of the road, raised her head, and her eyes drifted to the northeast involuntarily. Square. The sunlight poured down, covering her whole body in a dull golden halo.
"Fellow Daoist Gu, are you okay?" She said silently, "Please forgive me for my limited ability. I can only help you so much. ”
On this day, when Gu Xu was crossing the border of Youzhou, Shi Lei suddenly discovered that his daughter had slipped away from home quietly.
Disappeared with her, the Kunwu knife that she couldn't put down.
Shi Lei suddenly felt as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.
He immediately mobilized all his contacts in Luojing City to search everywhere for traces of Shi Xiaohan.
Finally, he saw his disobedient daughter in an alley in the northern suburbs of Luojing City
The petite girl was holding a huge knife box and looking at the wall. He was stunned by a wanted notice.
Shi Lei strode forward and grabbed her sleeves.
"Come home with me quickly," he said, "Your identity is sensitive, staying here will only make people suspicious."
Shi Xiaohan immediately turned around and turned his back. Facing him, he waved his arms at the same time, trying to break free from
his hand.
Shi Lei couldn't help but sigh silently, this girl's strength was really increasing day by day along with her appetite. He had to use his true energy to barely maintain the majesty of a father and avoid being easily thrown away by her.
Seeing Shi Xiaohan's pursed lips and stubborn expression, Shi Lei sighed, lowered his voice, and said in her ear, "Now Gu Xu's whereabouts are unknown and he is in danger. With your current cultivation level, even if Even if we can find him, we won't be able to help him. It will only become a burden to him."
As if being hurt by Shi Lei's words, Shi Xiaohan suddenly felt a sore nose and shed two tears. Rolling out of his eyes in disappointment.
"It was you who hurt him," she said with a trembling voice.
That day, Princess Zhaoning and the fortune teller Mu Yunkai came to the Shi family's mansion. She stayed in her room and heard all the conversations between the two people and her father.
And last night, she accidentally turned over the government documents on her father's desk and saw several officials from the fifth and sixth realms besieging Gu Xu in Jingxing. She also saw Gu Xu. He was seriously injured and escaped death.
"Father and his former fiancé are already on opposite sides."
"Father gave information to the court, which caused Gu Xu to be forced into a desperate situation and almost died."
Even though Shi Xiaohan had always been ignorant of world affairs and had simple thoughts, he now realized this cruel fact.
As a girl who grew up in a greenhouse, the world in Shi Xiaohan's eyes has always been black and white.
Her father loves her and Gu Xu takes care of her. Both of them are good people and they are the ones she wants to protect when she becomes stronger.
As for the bad guys, they are naturally the ghosts who slaughter the human race.
But now, this black and white orderly world suddenly collapsed.
Gu Xu was being hunted by the Da Qi court, and his father was giving clues to the court.
She found it difficult to accept, and on impulse, before dawn, she held the Kunwu knife and planned to run away from home.
She originally wanted to go to Gu Xu.
But after walking for a while in a daze, she suddenly realized that Gu Xu was running around with a magic weapon that could travel through space. Even the many powerful men sent by the imperial court could not find him, let alone a weak and powerless third-level monk like himself.
So, she stopped in front of Gu Xu's wanted notice and stood blankly for a long time.
Hearing her words, Shi Lei sighed again and whispered, "You should have heard that the Qingzhou Lu family committed treason and was executed by the nine tribes."
Shi Xiaohan said weakly "Hmm" said. After Gu Xu went to Lu's haunted house to solve the problem, she did go to find out more about it.
"If I don't do this, our Shi family will probably become the next Qingzhou Lu family." Shi Lei paused for a moment and then continued.
