A scholar’s ​​path to becoming a god

Gu Xingzhou stood in front of them with a sword: "Let them go."

"It was her brother just now, who are you to her?" The regent drew his sword and confronted Gu Xingzhou.

"Her husband." Gu Xingzhou said calmly.

Qi Heyi was stunned and rubbed his ears.

What did he hear? Is his ear broken?

The regent looked at her coldly: "What, do you want to rob someone? She has eaten my mother-in-law poison. As long as I give my order, she will die immediately."

"Antidote." Gu Xingzhou looked at the regent coldly.

The regent raised his eyebrows: "There is no antidote. The king's dead soldiers, if the king wants them to die, they must die."

At this moment, Sheng Zhiyu suddenly pulled out a short knife from his sleeve and stabbed the regent.

"Seeking death!" The regent knocked Sheng Zhiyu away with a blow from his palm.

Sheng Zhiyu fell to the ground and spit out a mouthful of blood, but suddenly he seemed to be a different person: "Your Majesty, don't kill me!"

The regent was extremely irritable and directly activated the Gu insect.

"Yu'er!" Gu Xingzhou felt like he was about to stop breathing. He could no longer care about the regent and ran towards Sheng Zhiyu.

Sheng Zhiyu held his stomach in pain. The skin on her face began to peel off, revealing Yang Liu's face.

Immediately afterwards, Yangliu's face also fell off, revealing another face...

Qi Heyi looked at all this in surprise, and Gu Xingzhou was also stunned.

"You are so cruel..." Yang Liu's stomach burst open and she stopped breathing in extreme pain.

There is only one card left on the ground.

"My lord, thank you very much!"

A figure quickly picked up the tarot cards, and it turned out to be Sheng Zhiyu riding on a giant cow cat.

"Are you kidding me?" The regent looked at the man and the cat with sinister eyes.

"Senior, come up quickly!" Sheng Zhiyu stretched out his hand towards Gu Xingzhou.

Gu Xingzhou held her hand and used his strength to jump onto the cat's back.

The guard had never seen such a big cow cat before. For a moment, he was afraid that it was a monster and did not dare to step forward.

The cow cat took the opportunity to grab Qi Heyi, and the three men and the cat quickly disappeared from the sight of the regent.

"Damn it, I will never let you go!" The regent realized that he had been tricked by Sheng Zhiyu, and his face was livid with anger.

Sheng Zhiyu and the other three rode the cow cat for a long time before stopping in a wilderness.

The cow cat spit out the Qi Heyi in its mouth, and the whole cat returned to its normal size.

"Senior, what on earth is going on?" Qi Heyi was dizzy, with stars in his eyes.

Sheng Zhiyu smiled slightly: "Thanks to Yangliu for taking the initiative to deliver it, otherwise I wouldn't know how to start."

It turns out that Yangliu is not Yangliu. She was originally a brothel girl. Because she was jealous of the beauty of the number one, she made a deal with the monster and became a painted ghost.

As long as there is a woman whose status exceeds hers, she will kill the woman and replace her with that woman's skin.

Therefore, everyone thinks that the second-place flower will die, and no one doubts the first-place finisher.

This time Yang Liu deceived Sheng Zhiyu into a secluded corner of Shangshu Mansion, and wanted to push Sheng Zhiyu into the lotus pond, and wanted to pretend to be Sheng Zhiyu and climb up to the regent.

She didn't expect that Sheng Zhiyu would become a guest and exchange points for "obedient insects" to be placed on her, thereby controlling Yangliu.

This obedient creature spent 500 points and could only use it three times. She was still a little distressed.

"Why didn't you discuss it with us earlier?" Gu Xingzhou said with a dark face.

"Well... I actually want you to anger the regent and make him kill Yangliu. Only when Yangliu dies can we get this card." Sheng Zhiyu said embarrassedly, "I'm sorry for making you worry."

"Um...senior, why did you say you were my senior's...husband?" Qi Heyi realized something was wrong, no matter how stupid he was, "Besides, I heard you called her Yu'er?"

Sheng Zhiyu wanted to sew her mouth shut: "Of course it was to deceive the regent."

Qi Heyi expressed doubts.

"If you just want Yang Liu to die, you can kill her on the spot. There is no need to take the risk." Gu Xingzhou also cooperated with her to change the topic.

Sheng Zhiyu smiled slightly: "So, I must have my reasons. The second card, the clue lies with the Regent."

"What did you do?" Gu Xingzhou looked at her.

Sheng Zhiyu said: "Why do you think Yang Liu woke up in the end? Why didn't the regent catch up in the end?"

Gu Xingzhou understood what she meant: "The obedient insect has come to the regent."

"Senior sister, you are so smart!" Qi Heyi sighed sincerely, "You can leave this game now!"

Sheng Zhiyu looked at the tarot card in his hand. On it were children riding a horse, praising the vitality brought by the sun and accepting the energy given to him by the sun.

Sheng Zhiyu checked the game interface and saw the option to exit: "I can't leave yet. The three of us have to complete the game together."

"What are you going to do next?" Gu Xingzhou asked.

Sheng Zhiyu said: "The regent is unfathomable. I don't know how long the obedient insect can control him. For the current plan, I have to kill him to avoid long nights and dreams."

"You mean to kill him tonight?" Qi Heyi opened his eyes wide, "Senior sister, you are so cruel."

"I don't need to do it myself. He still has an obedient person in him." Sheng Zhiyu said, "Since he wants to kill me, I have to carefully plan his death method to maximize the value of his death."

Qi Heyi shuddered, and he suddenly realized that Sheng Zhiyu was also very cruel: "Senior sister, I will never fight against you in this life."

Gu Xingzhou looked at his useless look and sneered.

In his opinion, even if Sheng Zhiyu is a poisonous flower, he has made up his mind: "Have you figured out how to deal with the regent?"

Sheng Zhiyu nodded: "I've probably thought about it. Let's go back to the inn now. It's just that we can't ride the cow anymore. It's a bit conspicuous. Can you ride a horse?"

"I can, I can, my father took me riding in England! Senior sister, I can take you." Qi Heyi is also a young man.

With that said, he bought a docile little mare and came out.

Gu Xingzhou also exchanged for a tall horse: "Is this what you want to ride?"

Qi Heyi's face turned red: "Isn't it because we don't have enough points?"

Gu Xingzhou got on his horse while walking on the flowing water, and then scooped Sheng Zhiyu into his arms: "Let's go."

"Senior, you don't follow martial ethics!" Qi Heyi immediately got on his horse and chased after him on his docile little mare.

Sheng Zhiyu sat in Gu Xingzhou's arms, a little confused, she hadn't reacted yet.

Gu Xingzhou held her waist with one hand and controlled the horse with the other, making the ride very smooth. Unlike Qi Heyi behind him, who was about to be knocked to death by himself.

Sheng Zhiyu coughed and diverted his attention: "Senior, your riding skills are pretty good."

Gu Xingzhou hugged Sheng Zhiyu's arm tightly, lowered his head and whispered in her ear: "Is it just the skill of riding a horse?"
