Sealing Sword

"The palace master hunts geese all day long, but today he was almost pecked in the eye."

In the inner hall, Helian Yugao was on top, flipping his fingers, the red wine was shaking in the glass luminous cup, reflecting the candlelight like human blood.

Hearing this, he put on the cold mask with one hand, and said: "For a moment, I was careless and wanted to try the puppy's weight, but I didn't expect it to be a wolf cub with claws."

The one who spoke before was the man sitting at the bottom, dressed in black and light armor, with a bamboo hat on his head, the black veil hanging down covered his face, only the silhouette could be seen faintly.

The man frowned and asked, "Since it's a wolf cub, why didn't you kill it early?"

He Lianyu smiled lightly: "Of course it is useful."

After a pause, he looked at the wine in the glass again. Although he hadn't drunk it, the color was already extremely beautiful, and said, "Wine from the Western Regions?"

"Master's new fine wine, I specially sent it to the palace master to taste."

"It's not like your master's style to be courteous for nothing."

The man smiled and said: "It is true that I have something to ask the Palace Master in detail, but this wine is not a reward for friendship."

The corner of Helian Yu's mouth under the mask tugged lightly: "Oh?"

The man said: "The previous incident of intercepting and killing Chu Xun failed. Now that he has returned to Tianjing, there may be endless troubles in the future... Master hopes that Palace Master can help us to eliminate this hidden danger."

He Lianyu raised his eyebrows: "If it is so easy for the emperor to kill the royal descendants, why doesn't your master come by himself? Burial Soul Palace is for killing people, not killing them, even if you want to hide everything... ...but it's not yet time."

The man's face froze under the veil, and he knew that this moody Burial Soul Palace Master was not a perfunctory fool. If he really got angry, the mere 30 people he brought would not be enough to watch.

Fortunately, He Lianyu didn't have the idea of ​​tearing his face apart now, so he gave a light warning and then changed the subject: "However, although this business can't be done, another business can be done."

The man borrowed the donkey from the slope and said: "What the palace master said is..."

He Lianyu didn't answer and asked instead: "The boy who was detained just now, do you know who he is?"

The man was stunned, just now he begged to see He Lianyu, was taken outside the practice room and waited for half an hour, just when he was a little impatient, he suddenly saw a change in the secret door, and subconsciously made people bow their bows and set arrows, but he just thought it was He Lianyu The "human sacrifices" who were arrested to practice Qigong rebelled, and they didn't think much about it.

Now that Helian Yu asked this question, it seems that he guessed wrong before.

After thinking for a moment, the man shook his head and said, "Please enlighten me, Palace Master."

He Lianyu said: "His name is Gu Xiao, he is the one who rescued Chu Xun this time and ruined the big thing."

As soon as the words came out, the man was startled for a moment, then suddenly became angry, and his voice suddenly became cold: "It's him?!"

"Lieutenant Lin, don't be in a hurry to tear him into pieces, just listen to me." The wine glass in Helian Yu's hand tilted slightly, and a line of blood like wine slowly spilled on the floor, "You never thought about him Boy, how can you have such abilities? Also, who is that woman who sent Chu Xun and the two of them to Mianfeng City?"

The man's expression froze, he untied his wristband and lifted up his sleeves, exposing the seven-inch incision on his arm, and said in a deep voice, "I led people to ambush them on the road, but that woman is strong in martial arts and experienced, and there is a team behind her secretly. Unidentified people who are very good at sneaking and reconnaissance helped, not only did we not keep her, but there were also casualties, and we were almost discovered."

"That woman is the master of this wolf cub." The wine glass in Helian Yu's hand was crushed in the palm of his hand, and it turned into powder and leaked from his fingers. .”

As soon as the word "Jinghong Dao" came out, the man's face changed drastically. He chewed on the name "Gu Jufang" for a while, and his eyes flashed with uncontrollable surprise: "It's Gu Zheng, the leader of the former Lieying. female?"

Helian Yu nodded and said: "Exactly."

He could understand why this person was so excited. "Liaoyingwei" was created by Gaozu as the emperor's dark guard.

Gu Zheng and his Lve Yingwei are indispensable to the country that Gaozu conquered.

21 years ago, Gu Zheng was executed by Ling Chi for his involvement in the Qin case, and Lve Ying Guard was also disbanded since then. Those "shadows" that once made countless officials and aristocratic families frightened disappeared from everyone and never disappeared.

It's not that no one has thought about cutting grass and roots, and it's not that no one has thought about recruiting subordinates, but no one has been able to find them.

However, if there is anyone in the world who can reorganize the Lve Shadow Guard, it must not be the royal family who has hurt them thoroughly, but the Jinghong knife they have followed all their lives.

Gu Zheng is dead, and although his daughter Gu Huafang was young at the time, she has not been inferior to her father over the years, but she lives up to her name, just like a flash in the pan, except for the wanderings in the rivers and lakes in the early years, she has disappeared since then any sound.

Until now.

The man couldn't sit still anymore, he got up and cupped his hands and said: "If the palace master can take down Gu Yaofang, it will be the best thing! The master has won Lve Yingwei, and he will definitely live up to the palace master's achievements today!"

"There's no need to talk about the scene." He Lianyu hooked his lips, "Gu Xiao is her apprentice, and this time it falls into my hands again. Gu Yaofang will definitely come to save her, but..."

The man impatiently asked: "But what?"

"However, it's easy to attract this bitch, but it takes a little effort to take her down. After all, she is from Lve Ying, and is used to lurking at night." He Lianyu sneered, "Therefore, I have to borrow Lieutenant Lin and your men Some people use it."

The man said: "As long as Gu Yaofang can be taken down, let the Palace Master order."

"It's easy to say." He Lianyu responded noncommittally, and lightly clapped his hands, "Come here."

A person from outside the palace bowed in, not daring to look up, and said, "Your subordinate is here! What is the palace master's order?"

"Bring me that young man who doesn't know how to live or die."

The man went out in response, and turned around after a while. The two guards behind him supported Gu Xiao with a halberd, and dragged him all the way into the hall, leaving bloodstains.

The halberd was withdrawn, and Gu Xiao lost his support and immediately fell to the ground. He barely supported his upper body with his right hand, and this action alone almost exhausted his accumulated strength.

"It's so pitiful." Helian Yuju looked at him condescendingly, "You look like a corpse just picked up from a mass grave."

Gu Xiao was trembling with pain, but he was stubborn and refused to show cowardice. Hearing this, he spat bloody saliva and said, "Why, seeing your young master's bones smell good, can't the beasts resist eating two mouthfuls?" ?”

Before he finished speaking, the man walked up to him and kicked him in the abdomen. Gu Xiao immediately rolled three feet away and hit the wall hard on his back. His internal organs were in pain, and he spit out blood when he opened his mouth, coughing more than.

The man said coldly: "When you are about to die, you have to keep your mouth shut!"

"Why do you need to be as knowledgeable as a dying person?" Helian Yu's voice sounded with a smile, "Left and right are just a few words of mercy, it doesn't matter if you let him go. If you can't listen to it, you might as well go to the back hall to see my new 'catch' Sacrifice' is also quite interesting."

These words meant chasing guests, the man left wisely, leaving only He Lianyu and Gu Xiao in the hall for a while.

He Lianyu walked slowly in front of Gu Xiao, knelt down and hooked his chin with a finger cuff, the sharp end almost pierced his jaw.

"I don't like your eyes very much." He murmured, "It's a pity that you haven't seen the most beautiful picture in the world, and it's not time to dig it out yet."

Gu Xiao couldn't say a whole sentence, so he could only "pooh" a mouthful of blood, but it was a pity that he turned his head to avoid it.

"The next time, I'll cut off your tongue." He Lianyu let go of his hand, "It's not that easy to provoke me to kill you. Gu Jufang hasn't seen your miserable situation with her own eyes, and you haven't Seeing her defeat with your own eyes, how can you easily close your eyes?"

Gu Xiao reluctantly swallowed the blood in her throat, and said, "What kind of hatred does my master have against you?"

He had asked this question once under Feiyun Peak, Helian Yu didn't respond back then, but now he gave him an answer.

"Resentment?" He Lianyu thought about it carefully, then suddenly smiled, "I have no grudges with her in the past, and I have no grudges in the near future, I... just hate her."

Gu Xiao frowned, and heard him continue: "You don't need a reason to hate or hate, sometimes when you meet for the first time, you can't wait for someone to die without a burial... Just like the first time I saw Gu Haofang , that’s what I thought.”

This was said plainly, but Gu Xiao felt cold behind his back when he heard it, and he scolded: "You crazy!"

He Lianyu said: "Do you know what a madman will do when he is angry?"

Gu Xiao sneered and said, "Come if you have the guts, I'm not afraid of you."

"Don't say it too early, after all, when I'm angry, I'm even afraid of myself." He Lianyu chuckled, and suddenly changed the subject, "Duanqing these years, how have you been?"

When Gu Xiao heard him mention his wife, her heart skipped a beat.

He Lianyu said to himself: "It should be bad. After all, he is a person who should have cultivated and retreated from the world a long time ago, but he is entangled in the world of mortals with Gu Huafang, a bitch. Die badly."

Gu Xiao said: "What do you mean?"

"I want to see Duan Qing, do you think he will come?" He Lianyu looked forward to it, and there was a little childlike excitement in his tone, "It would be best if he came, I want to treat Gu Gu in front of him." Chopped off every piece of flesh and bone on Huaifang's body, and then chopped off your limbs, making you wriggle in the blood like a bug... Heh, his expression at that time must be very interesting."

Gu Xiao's scalp tingled when he heard this, and he wanted to escape restlessly, but unfortunately he couldn't move at all.

"I want to take you to a place." He Lianyu said to him with a smile, "That place is called 'Weeping Blood Cave', and it is a place where I retreat. There is no water or food in it, but there are many corpses. If you If you are thirsty and hungry, find something fresh to eat, and you won’t starve to death.”

A mouthful of blood gushed into Gu Xiao's throat again, he couldn't speak, he could only stare at Helian Yu with his eyes, but unfortunately the other party was still wearing a mask, so he couldn't see his true face, so he could only firmly remember this A look of cruel pleasure.

"By the way, there are also 'human sacrifices' that I've fed with mad drugs. They don't recognize anyone, they hide anywhere, and they like to attack others the most. Be careful not to be caught by them, otherwise if they are eaten alive Blame me." He Lianyu reached out and touched the blood at the corner of his mouth, "For Duanqing's sake, I will give you a knife to defend yourself later, but don't think about courting death. Because you are really dead , I will also take your body to make a deal with Gu Yufang, if you don’t want to drag her down and let her efforts go to waste, just live well until then.”
