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

Gu Yue breathed a sigh of relief.

His tense nerves relaxed, and he suddenly felt that he had underestimated the wisdom of the ancients. If the safety was really not too high, this folding knife who seemed to admire Gu Xu would not let Gu Xu touch such a dangerous thing.

In other words, I am too concerned and therefore confused.

Gu Xu had already returned the musket to the folding knife and walked over.

"You're standing too close." He frowned slightly, "Didn't I tell you to stay away?"

"We share the same difficulties." Gu Yue said with a smile, "You just now... really looked very beautiful!"

Gu Xu's face turned red for a moment, and he shifted his gaze: "I am also very accurate in horseback archery. I will take you hunting some other day."

"Okay!" Gu Yue was very happy.

He also learned horse riding and archery during this period of time. Although his accuracy was not good, at least he could hit the target.

The two left the training ground and walked towards the research laboratory over there.

Gu Yue just saw that he was very skilled in holding the musket, and finally couldn't help asking: "Have you practiced using muskets like this in your previous life?"

"No." Gu Xu replied, "Today is the second time I have touched this kind of thing."

"But I see that you seem to be very skilled in using it." Gu Yue said, "Is this what is called talent?"

Gu Xu stopped and frowned slightly: "Maybe, when I got this thing, I had a familiar feeling."

This is the protagonist! Gu Yue sighed in his heart.

He couldn't help but think of Gu Xu's past life. Gu Xu had always been evasive about the details of his death in his past life, probably because he was afraid that he would feel bad about it. But wasn't he the same?

After Zhen Suhang brought such bad news, Gu Xu asked him several times about the details of his time travel, but he evaded the question every time.

It's really hard to say such things out loud.

That's all. Gu Yue thought, living a good life in this life is enough.

……

Outside Luoyang City, in a remote mansion.

The courtyard was desolate and dilapidated, and it looked like no one had lived there for a long time. The gate was tightly closed, and only two Lingfeng Pavilion guards stood in front of the main hall door.

Su Muying could hardly bear it any longer.

He had enjoyed a life of luxury and wealth, but when had he ever suffered such hardship? A tile on the roof was broken, and it was covered with simple straw. When it rained, water would drip down, making his bedding extremely damp.

The civil official's skin was delicate and could not bear such suffering. Su Muying developed patches of eczema on his body, which he scratched himself, causing unbearable pain and itching.

There was a lot of dust. The ground, which was rammed with earth and ash, had a layer of loose soil due to years of weathering, and it was impossible to sweep it clean.

It will be soon. He will leave this damn place soon and won’t have to endure it anymore!

Su Muying looked at the damp bedding with disgust.

Even when he was on tour in various places, he had never lived in such a bad place! But it was almost over. Wen Qing had found clues about the Chaozhen Army. He snatched the token from Gu Dashi. With only this elite team, no one dared to underestimate him!

He paced in circles anxiously until he heard footsteps outside the door.

Su Muying rushed to the door, unable to conceal the anxiety on his face.

There was the sound of a key unlocking the door, and Wen Qing pushed it open. Su Muying had already regrouped, trying to cover up her own gaffe, and asked in a deep voice, "How is it?"

Wen Qing looked very serious and presented the jade token in his hand.

Su Muying held it in his hand and had a bad feeling in his heart.

"Sir." Wen Qing said slowly, "This thing is fake. We have fallen into Gu Dashi's trap."

"What?!" Su Muying showed a furious look. He grabbed Wen Qing's collar and shouted angrily, "Explain it clearly!"

He didn't notice the hint of satisfaction in Wen Qing's eyes.

Wen Qing slowly grasped his wrist and said, "This jade token is just Gu Shen's waist token. I have already asked someone to find out... As for the news about the Chao Zhen Army that has been circulating in the martial arts world, after many investigations by Lingfeng Pavilion... it is probably a trick put up by Gu Xu."

Su Muying began to breathe heavily.

He let go of Wen Qing's collar and took several steps back. He kept exerting force on the jade token, and finally raised it high and smashed it to pieces!

The jade fragments scratched his face.

Wen Qing took a step back and looked at Su Muying, whose face was as hideous as a devil. Only pleasure surged in his heart.

The leader who is always high above everyone else, strategizing and treating everything as chess pieces, actually has such a side to him!

Wen Qing watched in silence as Su Muying went crazy and smashed the already dilapidated room into pieces.

The bunk bed that creaked when one turned over even slightly also collapsed on one side.

Su Muying was out of energy and was out of breath after just a while. He could no longer muster up any more strength. He suddenly turned his gaze to Wen Qing in front of the door, rushed over, and held his shoulders tightly with both hands: "It's you! You betrayed me, right?!"

Wen Qing raised his eyebrows, his eyes showing surprise: "Sir, why do you say that? ... Wen Qing would never dare to betray you. It was you who gave Wen Qing a life. Wen Qing also gave up everything to save you from Gu Xu's hands."

"You still remember? You still remember." Su Muying nodded repeatedly, bloodshot eyes, "If I knew what you were doing behind my back... Wen Qing, you know what the consequences would be."

Wen Qing showed compassion.

"Sir, Wen Qing... will stand by your side until death." He said softly.

Su Muying stared at him intently.

"There is still hope." Wen Qing said, "I have contacted all of your old subordinates, and some of them are still willing to help out of their old kindness. Your Excellency, the coronation ceremony will be held in a few days, and all the ministers will gather in the imperial city. We will have a chance."

"Okay, okay!" Su Muying looked a little excited. "Go and make arrangements immediately. Tell them that after the matter is done, I, Su Muying, will definitely not treat him unfairly... Appoint him as a general, the Great Protector of the Nation!"

"Okay." Wen Qing lowered his head obediently.

He slowly left the room and closed the door.

Su Muying walked back and forth in the room excitedly, but this excitement only lasted for a moment, and his eyes became cold again.

Wen Qing!

He must have betrayed me. How could things have come to this?

He rushed to the door again, but it could not be opened. He kicked the door twice, and the guard's panicked voice came from outside: "Master! Please be patient. People are searching for you everywhere outside. It's better for you not to come out."

"You two!" Su Muying roared.

He panted for a while, then tried to pull at the window again. He barely pushed the window open a crack, then it got stuck, but Su Muying could still see the faces of the two people outside the door.

It was his people, Su Muying breathed a sigh of relief: "You! Immediately contact the old subordinates of Lingfeng Pavilion who are trustworthy... Kill Wen Qing, immediately!"
