Help! I just woke up and was stabbed by a big kid

Gu Xu was not surprised because Tang Wuling had also "specifically" told him that Gu Yue appeared near Yunxi and seemed to be looking for something in Prince Shen's mansion.

"Nothing else. His Majesty doesn't seem to have high hopes for the Chaozhen Army." Shen Wumou said, "Perhaps he has sent out other Hidden Dragon Guard teams to investigate. Our teams don't communicate with each other."

Gu Xu turned and left.

Shen Wumou shouted from behind: "Young Master! Please put my arms and legs back on! It hurts so much! I won't commit suicide!"

The door of the hut was closed, and Gu Xu walked towards the room opposite where Lu Wushuang was imprisoned.

When the door opened, Lu Wushuang looked much calmer than Shen Wumou.

He raised his eyes and looked at Gu Xu: "Did you torture Shen Wumou?"

Wu Feng, who was following behind, quickly said, "No, he was just yelling nonsense."

Lu Wushuang nodded and looked at Gu Xu, as if judging something.

As soon as Gu Xu sat down, Lu Wushuang spoke: "If I'm not mistaken, you are Gu Xu?"

Gu Xu nodded.

"...If that's true." Lu Wushuang took a breath, "Young Master, do you want to ask about Gu Dashi?"

"Tell me, what happened that day." Gu Xu nodded.

Lu Wushuang said: "I have some guesses about what Master Gu came to Yunxi for, but Shen Wumou and I didn't discuss anything, so I don't know his purpose."

Lu Wushuang recounted in detail what happened on the day Gu Yue was shot by an arrow and fell off the cliff, which was basically the same as what Shen Wumou said.

After hearing this, Gu Xu frowned slightly.

These people all told the same story, so they were not lying. No one saw where Shi San and his companions went, and no one saw the assassin who shot the arrow.

Lu Wushuang was silent for a while, then took the initiative to speak: "Young Master. In my humble opinion, Master Gu is a very wise man."

Gu Xu looked at him, not understanding what he meant.

"I have wasted so many years in Yunxi, not because I am not ambitious enough, but because someone above me is suppressing me." Lu Wushuang suddenly said, "However, although I am not good at scheming, I have always been very good at judging people. When Mr. Gu wrote to me again to ask for a deal after he escaped, I already felt something was wrong."

"Tell me about it." Gu Xu said.

"Because I felt something was fishy, ​​I carefully observed Mr. Gu's demeanor that day." Lu Wushuang said, "If I'm not mistaken... asking us to meet in that designated valley was actually Mr. Gu's plan, right? He wanted to use the terrain to do something, such as..."

Lu Wushuang stared at Gu Xu's expression, hesitated for a while, and said, "Faked death?"

Gu Xu's eyelashes twitched.

Lu Wushuang said: "Young Master, am I right?"

Gu Xu did not answer.

The atmosphere was silent for a while. Lu Wushuang swallowed and said, "In fact, everyone was attracted by the Chaozhen Army token that day, except me. So I noticed some things, which may be helpful to my young master."

Gu Xu looked at him coldly.

Lu Wushuang said with a stiff upper lip: "I will tell you everything exactly, but the condition is... please, young master, spare my life and Shen Wumou's life."

He smiled and said, "No one wants to die, right?"

"Are you qualified to negotiate with me?" Gu Xu finally spoke, his tone somewhat cold.

"Haha, I don't dare to negotiate, but I'm just making a bold deal. After all, the young master really needs this information." Lu Wushuang smiled apologetically: "Believe me, this information will definitely be useful... and it's useless to take our lives, right? Lord Shen messed up the matter, he will definitely not dare to return to the capital, and he will not show up in the subsequent fight; and I am just a small leader of Yunxi. If the fire doesn't reach here, I will naturally not show up..."

Gu Xu looked at him for a while and said, "Go ahead."

Lu Wushuang immediately said, "That day, my attention was on Master Gu, and I didn't look at the token. When the arrow was shot, Master Gu was not panicked at all, and he didn't try to dodge. It was not until he was hit that he showed some panic and blood came out of his mouth."

Lu Wushuang tried to recall: "At that time, everyone rushed to grab the token. Master Gu lost his balance and fell off the cliff. However, he must have known that there was a cliff behind him, because after being surrounded by both sides, he did not retreat even a single step. In addition, I saw a strip of cloth tied to a small tree on the edge of the cliff."

Gu Xu said nothing.

Lu Wushuang continued, "Oh! Also, the token was taken away by the masked man. Only two of us were left, so we definitely had no power to resist."

"Yeah." Gu Xu responded indifferently.

"Also... Boss Gu said that the Western Hu man next to him was Young Master's spy. Also, while we were running for our lives, we saw the remnants of those masked men who seemed to be chasing someone in the mountains, but they were very far away and didn't dare to get close, so we didn't know who they were."

"Caught?" Gu Xu finally raised his eyes.

"It should be. In my opinion, the martial arts skills of the three people being chased are not very high." Lu Wushuang said.

"...What do you think about the identity of the masked man?" Gu Xu asked.

"Well... they don't have any accents, they speak standard Mandarin, and they are masked tightly, so it's really hard to guess." Lu Wushuang said: "But I can be sure that they are not members of the Hidden Dragon Guard. Their sword techniques are completely different."

He continued, "I can tell that Lord Gu is trying to get some information from you by bringing up the Crown Prince's succession to the throne. But the other party seems to be dismissive of it. I guess he is not from the royal family."

Gu Xu stroked the ring on his hand and was silent for a moment.

Lu Wushuang thought of something else and added hastily, "Perhaps we can start with the person who leaked the news. Not everyone knows about the meeting between Lord Gu and the Hidden Dragon Guards. I can provide a list of suspects and perhaps we can follow the clues and find clues about the person behind the scenes."

Gu Xu stood up and said, "Let Lu Wushuang settle down. If you remember anything, tell me immediately."

Lu Wushuang was overjoyed: "Okay! I will do my best!"

……

The rumor reached the capital first.

Zhen Suhang looked at the report in his hand and was horrified: "Boss Gu is dead?"

The editor-in-chief said: "That's what's being spread outside, but our people are still investigating who is spreading it and where it came from."

Zhen Suhang scratched his head in distress: "But Boss Gu hasn't sent back any news yet. Did his plan succeed? Should we spread the news now?"

The editor-in-chief also looked embarrassed.

Zhen Suhang wanted to write to Wumen to inquire about the situation, but he didn't dare to.

The editor-in-chief said, "Since Boss Gu has given the order, why don't we spread some wind and guide them?"

Zhen Suhang frowned.

The editor-in-chief continued, "In the end, Boss Gu's request was to clear Little Uncle's name."

"That's right... then..." Zhen Suhang was about to give an order when someone came in from outside.

It was the gatekeeper at the headquarters. He said, "Boss, someone is looking for you outside. He wants to sell you a big piece of news..."
