Chapter 33: Frivolous (nine)

Gu Xiao tossed and turned this night and could not fall asleep.
After three shifts, he simply got out of bed, listened to the movement next door, and turned over and jumped out of the window. After he went to the kitchen, he touched the bottle of wine and a pile of peanuts. After putting down the money, he returned to the yard and found it on the tree. This one can hide himself and keep an eye on the location of their room, nesting like a monkey.
This is a sweet-scented osmanthus tree. It is said that it has been hundreds of years old, and it is very thick and gratifying. Therefore, the store did not move it when it was under the market. As a lucky mascot, it has been safe and sound. Standing in the backyard.
Right now is the autumn season where osmanthus is blooming. The fragrant aroma between the nose and wings is lingering. It is almost intoxicating. Gu Xiao picked a few osmanthus and put it in a wine bottle. It is also a vassal and elegant. There is no taste in drinking.
I do n’t know how long it has been since Gu Xiao was a little bit confused, and suddenly heard a cat-like call coming under the tree: "Gu Xiao, are you here?",
Gu Xiao opened the flowering branches and saw a round child under the tree looking up, wearing a little thin body, trembling in the autumn wind night, sucking his nose from time to time.
Chu Yao whispered: "What are you doing on it?"
"Look at the scenery."
After hearing it, Chu Yao looked around. There was nothing to see except the old inn building and the bluestone floor covered with leaves: "What is the scenery here?"
Gu Xiao dragged his voice without good intentions: "The long-legged meatballs are pink and white, and they can still talk, is it a landscape?"
Chu Yao: "..."
He would run away as soon as he stomped his feet. Gu Xiao put the peanut rice plate between the branches. His feet were hooked to the branches. The whole person hung down like a bat. One hand fell over the hip flask to drink, but his long arm stretched out. This very heavy child hugged him.
Chu Yao was caught off guard and his feet were off the ground. Before he cried out, there was a flower in front of him. He was in Gu Xiao's arms. The young man hadn't swallowed a sip of wine. A pair of peach blossom eyes reflected osmanthus and moonlight. Blinking is like a flower blooming, the moon is round.
Chu Yao also forgot to struggle for a while, and the children liked the good-looking things, so he stretched his hand to touch his eyes, Gu Xiao did not hide, but blinked, his eyelashes brushed in the delicate palm, itchy. of.
He took the peanut dish and stuffed it into Chu Yao ’s mouth and asked,
Why do n’t you sleep here in the middle of the night?
"Sleep for a long time during the day, I can't sleep now." Chu Yao moved in his arms, "Why don't you sleep? Aunt Gu said that if you don't sleep well, you won't grow tall."
For the first time in my life, I heard someone call her Master's female bandit in this way. Gu Xiao was stunned and smiled: "That means a child, I have grown up."
Chu Yao bit the peanuts and said: "But today Aunt Gu said you are also a child."
"In the eyes of the elders, the children are not grown up." Gu Xiao feeds and feeds at the same time, and the drink is almost gone, and then his eyes narrowed. "What the are you looking for? Tell me, little Do n’t learn to hide your thoughts at a young age, because when you grow up, you will regret not cherishing the time you can now be honest. "
Chu Yao looked at him inexplicably, turning around in his small head, saying, "You are so powerful, can you come back to the palace with me and be my master?"
He knew from Chu Xun's mouth that his identity had been confessed, and now in Gu Xiao, he no longer struggled to cover up. Heard of his thrilling feats of supporting Chu Xun back to Jinshui City along the way. At that time, I wish I could directly pack this person back to the palace and become my own master.
Although the great Chu national strength is prosperous, there are countless internal and external problems under prosperity. Therefore, the Saints have very high requirements for their children and grandchildren. There must be a special master Ouchi to teach him martial arts.
But at his young age, he did not understand the difference between Ouchi masters and Jianghu knights, and only felt that what he saw with his own eyes and heard with his own ears was the best. During this time of escape, Chu Yao was blown up at ordinary times. The guards are all seen as embroidered pillows, only thinking that there is no one more powerful than this pair of mentors and apprentices.
However, Gu Gufang is always a little afraid of her, even though she is awesome, even in her instinct, she always thinks that Gu Lifang doesn't like him and Xun brother. The child was sensitive, and Chu Yao didn't think about fooling around in the past. Instead, he walked with his short legs to find Gu Xiao at night.
In Chu Yao's memory, the night and night of the wind and rain were the warmth and dependence that I had never felt before.
Gu Xiao didn't answer, he broke his finger and said sentence by sentence: "You saved me and brother Xun, my grandfather and father and mother princess will definitely reward you! You are my master, what do you want? , No one dares to treat you badly, I, I listen to you ... "
"At a young age, you learned to lure?" Gu Xiao raised his eyelids around his arms. "But I don't love money. I'm horny. It's not as good as beauty to move my heart than gold and silver."
Chu Yao remembered the request that night, his face was a little reddish, and he whispered: "I have a lot of floats in my house ..."
"Okay, thank you for your kindness. I don't want to go with you." Gu Xiao touched his head. "You see me, no matter how big or small, the courage will always be bigger than the brain, maybe it will break out one day. A big disaster, it's not good to go back with you. "
Chu Yao recalled the nonsense of this guy. For a while, he couldn't find a reason to refute it. After a while, he suffocated a sentence: "You can learn the rules ..."
"Come on, if I learned the rules, would I still be Gu Xiao?" Gu Xiao sneered and squeezed his face, "Don't say, no drama."
Chu Yao: "... but I said I would repay you."
Gu Xiao shrugged: "You forgot me, it's the best reward."
Chu Yao didn't understand, and inexplicably didn't dare to ask, for a while he was wronged and his eyes were red.
"Ping Shui meets is already a fate. We can still meet in our identity. It is already a fate." Gu Xiao scraped his nose and fed another peanut, picking up the jug with a digression. "Taste Taste it? "
Chu Yao looked incredulously at this guy who took the children to drink.
Gu Xiao: "Not intoxicating, but also very fragrant, I don't believe you smell it."
Chu Yao hesitated to get over, there was not much residual wine in the pot, but the smell of osmanthus accounted for most of it. He sniffed for a while and raised his eyes: "Osmanthus?"
Gu Xiao handed over the hip flask: "Try it?"
It seemed that Chu Yao was going to stare at the hole in the hip flask. After all, he was still not curious. He took a sip of his hands and choked.
The little face blanched by the wind blushed red, eyes looked at Gu Xiao with watery eyes, his hands and feet were chased by inexplicable heat, and suddenly his bones were soft, and he fell into Gu Xiao's arms without saying anything.
Gu Xiao was taken aback by him. After catching it, he turned his eyelids and pulsed again, suddenly speechless.
The children and grandchildren of the emperor's family are actually a cup, this is really ...
He didn't realize how shameless he was to drink wine for the child, but he squeezed and poked the fat and chubby cheek for a while before he happily picked up the child and opened it toward his room. The window turned back.
Lying in bed, there was a hot meatball in his arms, Gu Xiao sucked his mouth, wrapped the two in a quilt, and became a sandwich spring roll, and turned to sleep with satisfaction.
It turned out to be a dreamless night.
Before the next day sunrise, Gu Lifang packed up her outfits and prepared to go on the road. She hired four carriages, two of which went sideways. One hour later, another one was sent to Yuzhou. After breakfast, she put Chu Xun, who was posing as a girl, into the carriage with Chu Yao who was still sleeping.
Gu Xiao smiled at the young man in red and green, and gave thumbs up to Gu Lifang: "Master, you, you are awesome! The bad-tempered mother-in-law bought a child-in-law to take the children, ha Haha ... I can laugh for a year! "
Chu Xun: "..."
Gu Lifang hummed, she changed her usual dress today, changed her dress color dress, her hair bun and hairpin, and only checked the color of her eyebrows and lips. A mean woman.
She didn't know where to hide Jinghong Dao, she pressed her fingers and counted: "You roll me home, and dare to provoke trouble, wait for me to interrupt your dog legs, three!"
Gu Xiao was cold between his legs, and quickly swear to the sky: "I must be obedient and leave immediately, otherwise I will let the old Gu family die!"
Chu Xun: "..."
Gu Lifang: "... you are looking for a fight, Bunny."
Not waiting for Gu Lifang to start, Gu Xiao quickly turned his horse and ran out of four or five feet in one breath before he turned back and said, "You, be careful."
Gu Lifang rolled his eyes and didn't speak. Chu Xun held the child inconveniently and only smiled at him.
Gu Xiao ’s gaze paused on Chu Yao. It ’s a pity that he drank him a drink last night, so that he ca n’t even say goodbye right now, and he thought about it, the kid was crying very much. If he was awake today, he might be uncertain. Why cry again?
Thinking like this, the horseshoe stepped on the ground twice, and Gu Xiao finally turned around, whip the horse, and ride the dust.
He hummed Xiaoqu'er, and his heart was full of worries, and he couldn't help but want to look back, but he didn't.
Going all the way, he didn't walk fast, but he was very smooth. He didn't encounter any danger. He was as peaceful as countless ordinary days and nights.
He calculated the distance in his heart, and it would be about three or four days before he could return to Feiyun Peak. Duan Qingxi was quiet. It must not be boring to stay alone on the mountain. It is estimated that he was either watering flowers or grass, or meditating.
Gu Xiaozhuo was waiting for Master to come back, and he was probably going to eat a bamboo shoot fried meat, so he was thinking about how to find a talisman from the teacher ’s side, not to escape the punishment. He was a good guy for two days.
Just thinking about getting enchanted, there was a silver flash in front of him, and Gu Xiao was caught off guard. He could only hurry back and put his upper body on the horse ’s back, only to find that it was a slender and tough quirky silk thread with a snake shape at one end The silver hook is nailed into the tree, and one end is attached to a person's hand.
If he responds slowly, it is estimated that his head will be cut off by this line.
After being stopped, Gu Xiao thought that the gang of people in the Soul Palace had chased over, and looked up, and by the moonlight, he saw a man looking back.
The man in white clothes Sheng Xue, with a simple long sword in his back, a high beam of ink, and a silver mask with a carved cloud pattern on his face, had a clean and clean momentum. If he was a fierce shot, Gu Xiao almost thought that This is an immortal who does not eat fireworks.
With a flick of his hand, the silk thread was retracted, and he slowly formed a small ball and hung it around his waist. The voice of the man came out through the mask: "You go forward? What a coincidence, me too, you detour."
Gu Xiao laughed angrily: "Everyone in Dalu is walking, but it's just the same way. Do you go this way, I can't do it?"
"The same way?" The man chewed these two words and smiled slowly. "The people under the world are just a bunch of animals that are not as good as pigs and dogs. What are the qualifications to go with me? Young people, I am in a very good mood now. Well, before I change my mind, let's go. "
The young people were more contented, and Gu Xiao frowned, remembering Gu Lifang ’s instructions, and forced himself to suppress it. Without thinking about this madman who was not easy to deal with, he said: "The front is a chasm, the road is dead. , No traces, is your Excellency going the wrong way? "
What he said is true, there is a swamp in the front, and there are rift valleys in the back, which can be described as poor mountains and evil waters. It is not feasible for livestock to travel. Every time he and Master passed by lightly. Let the Feiyun Peak deep in the rift valley be hidden between the mountains and forests, so Gu Xiao's words are a reminder, and they also want to persuade this strange person.
The dark eyes of the man emerged from the hollow of the mask, and when he looked at him like a poisonous snake staring at his prey, he slowly smiled and said: "It's not wrong, but ..."
Before the words fell, he rose from the horse's back like a ghost shadow. Gu Xiao couldn't see his body at all. He only had a cold behind him and fell sideways to the ground, a blood spattered on his body. Body.
The white horse he was riding fell to the ground. There was a deep bone scar on the horse's neck. It seemed to have been cut by a sharp weapon. The blood was dripping, and the flesh rolled up.
Quick steps, spicy means!
The man in white stood in the pool of blood, did not mind that Ma Xue stained his moire satin boots, and only smiled gently: "The young man turned out to be Gu Lifang's apprentice."
Gu Xiaohan's hair stood upright, and the night breeze cooled his forehead cold sweat. He subconsciously grasped the handle of the knife, but there was always a feeling of powerlessness.
The man in front of him seemed to suddenly change from a fairy to a ghost.
His eyes slowly moved down, and suddenly his pupils shrank, and he fixed it on the man's hand—his left hand, holding a dagger.
It is crooked like a crescent, like an iron hook, and the knife handle is engraved with a lifelike prajna flower.
Gu Xiao ’s unnamed fire ignited at this moment, and his whole body blood boiled after cooling rapidly, almost gritted his teeth and asked: "Are you ... a person in the Soul Palace?"
The man gently pulled the dagger, threw out some blood beads, shook his head, and explained with a good temper: "No, the Soul Palace is mine."
Gu Xiao was shocked. He looked at the man. His cold sweat had soaked his clothes, and his mouth did not show timidity: "You are the master of the Burial Soul Palace? Then, the twenty-five lives of Baihua Village, did you do it? "
The man recalled and said, "It seems that this is the case. If it wasn't for the woman's face when she was too noisy, let me cut her tongue, and I won't remember."
"What ... do you have any grudges against them?"
The man shook his finger: "No, no, I have no grievances with them, but they should not meet your three apprentices."
"What kind of hatred do you have with my master?" Gu Xiao finally couldn't hold back his anger. The long sword came out of the sheath and brought up a moonlight, and went away, taking the man's neck straight.
This knife is "Bai Hong", one of the most overbearing tricks in Jinghong's sword technique. He pours into 80% of the internal force on Gu Xiao's body, and thought that even if he couldn't kill him, he could hurt him.
However, the man's left hand is still playing with a dagger, his right hand is flexed on the side of the neck, the blade is suddenly deflected, and his flexed claw hits him in a blink of an eye. It was actually three fingerprints ripped open by a living bodysuit!
"The response was not bad, it was really a martial art of trembling, and I heard that my master was broken, and I planned to go back and find you." The dagger pressed against his chin, and the man looked at him carefully, suddenly He smiled again, "You don't look like your master or him, I'm very happy."
Gu Xiao gritted his teeth, turned his long knife, swayed his dagger, withdrew and retreated, suddenly reaching for a bamboo flute in his waist.
This is what Gu Lifang gave him, but Gu Xiao will not sing, but at the moment, he just injects a force and blows a broken sound. This sound splits the bamboo tube, which is far away from the sky and shocks countless birds and beasts in the forest!
Men's playful movements.
After Gu Xiao blows this, there is some breath in his chest. He already understands that the madman is going to Feiyun Yunfeng, and the master is not here. He only hopes that the lady can hear the warning and quickly hide.
"It's as disgusting as your Master." The man snorted, but no longer ignored him, flew forward, Gu Xiao was terrified, and quickly crossed the knife to stop.
Not to kill or to hurt, use all your strengths, just thinking about stopping this person for a while.
It's a pity that I couldn't.
The man was still exploring his martial arts before, but he was impatient right now, grabbing his right wrist with one hand, forcing the long knife to release his hand, and the bone was almost crushed like a severe pain!
He gritted his teeth without saying a word, but the man looked forward for a while, and suddenly said: "He has an accident."
Gu Xiao was stunned, and inexplicable fear rushed behind him.
"He was either absent, or he was caught by something, otherwise he would come to rescue you when he heard your whistle." The man pinched his veins and thought for a while, "Well, I want to come now. , It should be useless, it is better ... "
Gu Xiao, who was cold and sweating, understood his unspoken words. As soon as he gritted his teeth, he slapped his left hand back to his giant Que point, but the man shot him as expected, and hit him with a palm, and he flew out. He coughed a lot of blood on the ground and couldn't get up.
"Are you sure you are dead?" The man squatted down beside him, and the silver mask was more chilly under the moonlight. "Relax, I won't kill you, come back with me."
He knocked a few words on the fallen white horse with a dagger, picked Gu Xiao back to himself immediately, then turned his head to look at the direction of Feiyunfeng, shook his head regretfully, and drove away.
An hour later, the head of the disheveled hair came from the forest, staggering, his face pale as paper, and there were still blood stains on his lips.
He was a little unstable, but he walked quickly. When he arrived here, he could not control his breathing. He supported the big tree with his hand. His eyes quickly swept across his eyes, and the blood stains on the ground and the scars on the tree were brought into his eyes. Finally, he walked up to the breathless white horse.
There was only a sentence engraved on it, as if the old friend who hadn't seen in many years happily said hello, but it made people feel cold and cold
After a long time, is Junshangan safe?
