[Rat and cat derivative Gu Zhuo] The old moon is wrong

Chang'an on the eighth day of February

On the morning of the sixth day of the lunar new year, four carrier pigeons flew out from Luoyang. One lost its way in the gray cold dark sky, and the other one’s wings were frozen by the cold wind and snow, and it fell to death in the poor mountains on the border of Guanluo. Arrived in Chang'an.I flew to Chang'an before dawn on the eighth day of February.

Gu Jianhun, who got up at dawn, opened the door and saw two chubby and cute pigeons squatting obediently on the tree, Gu Jianhun lightly jumped, and fell to the ground in a blink of an eye; holding two pigeons in his hand; talking to himself Thinking carefully: "I haven't eaten pigeon meat for a long time; should I braise it in brown sauce or fry it?"

"That's a carrier pigeon that is one in a thousand, not for eating meat." Gu Jianhun turned his head and saw Zhuo Donglai leaning against the door in a cloak.

"It's so early today, don't tell me...you've been waiting for these two pigeons?"

"Maybe there were more than two." Taking the pigeon from Gu Jianhun's hand, Zhuo Donglai took off the bamboo scroll tied to the pigeon's leg; the words inside made Zhuo Donglai frowned.

"What's wrong?" Gu Jianhun asked, every time Zhuo Donglai frowned, it meant that something was out of his control.

"It's nothing." Zhuo Donglai turned and went back to the room.

"Since I believe you took it away, can I roast these two pigeons? Anyway, sooner or later they will..."

Zhuo Donglai's gentle smile interrupted Gu Jianhun's words. Seeing Gu Jianhun's silence, Zhuo Donglai nodded in satisfaction.Gu Jianhun hugged the pigeon in his arms, looking like an abandoned dog: "It's scary to come from the east..."

After a while, Zhuo Donglai changed his clothes and went out.

"You want to go out?" Looking at Zhuo Donglai who was dressed neatly, he looked up at the dimly lit sky, he had never gone out so early before; Gu Jianhun asked in confusion.

"Yes. I have something to ask the head of the family." Zhuo Donglai said naturally, not realizing that he had revealed his whereabouts to him.

Zhuo Donglai's words made Gu Jianhun smile happily, this was the first time he responded to his inquiry: "Then be careful."

"En." Suddenly realizing that he was responding to Gu Jianhun's words, Zhuo Donglai waved the whip in his hand displeased, turned and left, ignoring the idiot-smiling man.

Just after Zhuo Donglai left, Gu Jianhun also changed into a suit of clothes and left the small courtyard.

"Hey! It's really rare, Mr. Zhuo Da, it's so early." Before seeing Sima Chaoqun, he met someone who didn't want to meet in the corridor, Wu Wan stopped Zhuo Donglai's pace with a mocking face.

Zhuo Donglai nodded slightly at her and ignored her.Impeccable politeness, but no respect at all; Wu Wan gritted her teeth angrily, and reached out her hand to stop Zhuo Donglai: "My husband is having dinner, Mr. Zhuo came at an untimely time."

"Get out of the way." The plain tone seemed to dismiss a servant, and it also made Wu Wan's face pale.

"Zhuo Donglai, you are presumptuous!"

"Presumptuous?" Zhuo Donglai looked at the woman in front of him slightly for the first time.

Wu Wan approached Zhuo Donglai, and whispered: "I miss other people's husbands all day long, why? I still want to warm the banquet for Sima!"

"You know, you don't look like the wife of the bodyguard at all; the shrews on the street are three points better than you." Zhuo Dong looked outside the corridor, and the snow seemed to be falling again.

"You..." Wu Wan was extremely angry, she raised her hand and waved it at Zhuo Donglai's face; but Zhuo Donglai easily blocked it.

"Not killing you is not because I dare not, but because you are not worthy." Swinging Wu Wan's hand away, Zhuo Donglai nodded politely at Wu Wan, turned and walked towards the dining room.

Wu Wan clutched her arm, never expecting that Zhuo Donglai would use force against her.The feeling of numbness in the arm made Wu Wan's forehead covered with a thin layer of sweat. She rolled up her sleeves, and there was no imagined bruise on her white as lotus root arm.But all this made people gnash their teeth with hatred: "Zhuo Donglai... I will make you pay the price someday."

After entering the dining room, Sima was slightly taken aback; Zhuo Donglai had never been here at this time.Without Sima making a sound, Zhuo Donglai took the initiative to say: "Cai Chong is dead."

"Cai Chong? The one who became the hall master after betraying Zhu Meng in Luoyang?"

Zhuo Donglai nodded calmly: "Yang Jian died here. The other two died in our raid. Now there is not even one of the Four King Kongs under Zhu Meng."

Sima was enjoying his charcoal-roasted beef at this time, and this was also the time when he was most energetic and clear-headed.Sima asked, "When did Cai Chong die?"

"Yesterday morning. I just received the news of his death an hour ago." Zhuo Donglai's subordinate had an expert in training pigeons, and the people he sent to Luoyang to inquire about the news usually brought one or two pigeons with him.With the current information transfer, there is absolutely no method faster than this method.

"I seem to have heard that Cai Chong has completely controlled the Lion Hall. How could he die suddenly? A person like him shouldn't die so quickly."

"If a sword is stabbed in the heart, no matter what, everyone will die very quickly."

"But it's not easy to stab a sword into his heart. Whose sword is that sword?" Sima asked curiously.

Zhuo Donglai said calmly, "Gao Jianfei."

"It's him!" Sima cut off a large piece of beef with his machete, "Has he arrived in Luoyang?"

"Probably just arrived the day before yesterday." Seeing Sima chewing the beef, Zhuo Donglai subconsciously thought that Gu Jianhun seemed to like meat very much. Could it be that eating a lot of meat can make people grow stronger?Only then did Zhuo Donglai realize that Zhu Meng, Sima, and Gu Jianhun were all stronger than him...should he also learn from them?Realizing that he was distracted during the discussion, Zhuo Donglai hurriedly concentrated...

Unaware of Zhuo Donglai's distraction, Sima chewed slowly until the fresh aroma of the beef had completely melted into his palate before opening his mouth: "With Gao Jianfei's swordsmanship, Cai Chong is certainly no match, but since Cai Chong has already controlled the lion Tang. There should be good guards within fifty paces around you."

"It is said that it was on a street at that time. At that time, the street was not only full of children of the Lion Hall, but also a dozen killers who were bought by him at a high price. It is more dangerous than a sheep walking into a pack of wolves."

"But Xiao Gao has gone?"

"That's right, Xiao Gao went there alone. Alone, with a sword in his hand, he walked up that street like an old woman carrying a basket to buy vegetables."

"and then?"

"Then he stabbed Cai Chong's heart with that sword, pierced it in the front chest, and pierced it out in the back."

"Why did Cai Chong let him get close? Why didn't he order to kill him first?"

"I've thought about this too. I think the most important reason is that Cai Chong not only wants to use Xiao Gao to trap and kill Zhu Meng, but also doesn't attach much importance to him. He must think that he would never dare to make a move under such circumstances."

"Then Cai Chong's death is not wronged at all," Sima said coldly, "Anyone who underestimates his opponent deserves to die." Cai Chong not only underestimated Xiao Gao's speed and martial arts, but also his personality and courage.Sima suddenly sighed again, and said regretfully, "But Xiao Gao must be dead too. He must have been determined to die when he left. Zhu Meng is really lucky to have him as a friend."

"It is true that there are not many people like this now. If one dies, one will be lost. But there are still not many people."

"Xiao Gao is not dead yet?"

Zhuo Donglai said indifferently: "Now he may be living a much happier life than most people in the world."

Sima looked surprised: "Why?"

"Because he didn't make friends. Zhu Meng didn't let him go all out alone."

"Did Zhu Meng go too?" Sima was even more surprised: "He watched Cai Chong take all his people away, but he hid himself like a wild dog. At that time, how could he have the guts to break into the house?" where to go?"

"At first, I also thought he was finished. We smashed his outer hard shell like a walnut under a hammer. The remaining walnut kernels can be bitten by even a toothless child."

"Is his hard shell growing back now?"

"Seems to be."

"How did it grow?"

Zhuo Donglai had deep thoughts in his eyes, and after a long silence, he slowly said: "Some trees seem to be completely dead in winter, but when spring comes, after receiving the nourishment of spring, wind, rain, water, heating and sunshine, they suddenly become green again. With vitality, green shoots sprouted and new leaves grew." His voice seemed far away: "Some friends have the same influence on people as spring, wind, rain, water, heating and sunshine. For Zhu Meng, Gao Jianfei That's the kind of friend."

Sima Chaoqun sighed lightly: "He is indeed, no matter who he is."

Zhuo Donglai suddenly fell silent, and his normally bright eyes suddenly showed an expression that no one could understand or explain, and the sharpness in his eyes gradually dimmed.

But Sima Chaoqun didn't seem to notice, and went on to say, "Cai Chong ambushes on that street, most of them are Zhu Meng's former subordinates. Seeing Zhu Meng suddenly regain his former glory, he will definitely be shocked by his aura. , not to mention that Cai Chong has already died under Xiao Gao's sword. As long as Zhu Meng shows up, most of these people will not dare to make a move, because Zhu Meng still has a lot of energy."

Zhuo Donglai remained silent.

Sima said: "Those people hired by Cai Chong at a high price will certainly not sell. They are all valuable people. If Cai Chong can buy them, Zhu Meng can also buy them." Sima's voice was full of disdain: "A If people have value, they are worthless, not even a penny."

Knowing what Sima meant, Zhuo Donglai kept his mouth shut. It seemed that Sima still cared about buying Muji and others.

"It's because Cai Chong forgot these two points that Zhu Meng and Xiao Gao can live until now." Sima let out a sigh, obviously satisfied with his deduction.

Zhuo Donglai didn't respond at all, Sima couldn't help but ask him after waiting for a while, "Don't you have any opinions at all?"
