The villain whitewashing strategy

The sound of the clock has just passed, who will knock on the door so late?

Just as Gu Xun was about to leave to open the door, he was held back by Xici, and his eyelashes slapped in the dim light, both comforting and seductive.

"Guest officer, it's me." The voice of the person outside the door was as low as possible, revealing obvious panic, it didn't seem like he was trying to harm someone... it seemed like he was begging for help!

Gu Xun opened the door step by step, and immediately pulled the man into the room, placing the folding fan on the man's neck.

The bone of the fan was so cold that the boy was almost shaking like a sieve.

"Purpose?" Asking the cliche question of who are you is boring, Gu Xun asked in a low voice when he saw the tea tray in the servant's hand.

"I, I'm a good, good person." The boy stammered, seeing that Gu Xun was not a good person, he asked for help from the extremely gentle-looking young man in white, "I, my brother is gone, I'm afraid, I I can't hold on for long. Xianjia, help me."

People don't look like bad guys, but their words are too old-fashioned, but they are enough to soften Xi Ci's heart, "Xiao Xun."

Although Gu Xun hesitated, he still let go.

The young fellow fell to his knees suddenly, tremblingly pushed the tea tray he had brought forward, kowtowed three times to Xici before saying, "The Immortal family is a good person at first glance, help, help Save us!"

After Gu Xun and Xici looked at each other, it seemed that Xilin really wasn't as calm as it appeared on the surface.

The little boy knelt down on the ground, faltering and faltering like he was very frightened, "Someone has been missing inexplicably in the city recently, all, all because of drinking this wine."

Xi Ci squatted down, opened the jug and smelled it, and suddenly smelled that it was wine brewed by ordinary people, but... it was Yan Wu!

Why did Yan Wu come to Xilin?Xuanhe has not returned so far, and it is also because of the wine he drank today, Xi Ci opened his mouth, and asked calmly, "Where did this wine come from?"

"No, I don't know." The boy stammered, Gu Xun's folding fan lightly tapped the back of his head, and his tone of voice was threatening, "I advise you to tell the truth."

"Don't kill me! Don't kill me! I said... from the palace."

"In the palace?"

"Yes. The name of this wine is 'Nanke', and it is extremely mellow. It was brought by a merchant who came to Xilin a few days ago. The merchant was probably related to the city lord. I went to the city to offer wine." The young man waited for a long time before he could speak quickly, "I heard that the city lord drank this wine and was drunk for three days, and praised 'there is no such fine wine in the world'. This reputation has spread, and the inn outside the city As long as the wine shop has a relationship in the palace, it will go into the palace through the relationship and get some out."

After the boy said it, Gu Xun just remembered that the teahouses and restaurants he saw during the day did indeed have the signboard "There is Nanke inside".

Is the body sealed underwater at the ferry related to this wine?

According to what this young man said, Nanke wine has been circulating in the city these few days. If there is really a problem with the wine, there should be many people who have suffered from it. It should have caused panic. Peaceful?

Xici thought for a while and asked, "What did you say about your brother just now?"

"My brother is a drunkard all day long. When he heard that the inn had such a good wine, he forced me to steal it. In the end, he drank it..."

"Just died?" Gu Xun spoke too bluntly, Xi Ci stood behind Gu Xun and tugged at his sleeve, signaling him not to talk nonsense.

The boy was reminded of the sad past, sobbing and saying, "At first I thought that my brother was just drunk, but I didn't expect that after three days of coma, he never woke up again... just went like that."

Sleep for three days?Gu Xun frowned slightly, and after meeting Xi Ci's eyes, he quickly understood what the other party was thinking—it was a dream.

Nanke wine is just like its name, it will make people addicted to it, and just sink to death.

So Xuanhe has not returned so far, is it also related to drinking Nanke wine in the afternoon?

If this is the case, it proves that this wine is not only useful to mortals, too many things collide, I don’t know if it’s just a coincidence, or the person is in a hurry and starts to use whatever means. Anyway, they can’t delay for a moment now, and they rushed to the West Linhuang immediately. city.

The blue bricks were warmed by the rain, and tick-tocks fell on the crisp branches. Rows of lights on the palace wall illuminated everything. The festive palace lanterns were filled with blood-colored red light. It was inexplicable in such an environment. It seemed a bit weird.

It's so quiet here.

It was as quiet as in a dream.Gu Xun, the guard of the west facing imperial city, had seen it in a dream. The hidden guards who knew how to make use of it, even the king of the west facing Xuanhe dared to buckle him privately, so he might not dare to touch them.

If you rush in rashly, you may lose more than you gain.

Someone will spy on them in the dead silence.

Almost subconsciously, Gu Xun took Xici's hand and protected him behind him.Xi Ci thought he was afraid, so he squeezed his palm to comfort him.

There are many ghosts hidden in the red wall, Gu Xun sensed their aura, they are people from Yanling, they are still safe for the time being.

If something really happened later, at least the safety of Xi Ci could be ensured.

Gu Xun turned around suddenly, and Xi Ci bumped into his arms. He embraced the person and asked without thinking, "Do you believe me?"

The light of the palace lantern made Xici Ruyu's complexion slightly drunk, he paused for a moment, then nodded slightly.

Gu Xun pursed his lips and smiled, staring at his beautiful eyes. When the young man lowered his voice, he was extremely scratchy, "It is impossible for such a huge barrier to be unsupported, but now the King of West Lin is like a walking dead. The real manipulator Or, possibly behind the scenes."

The words of analysis sounded like ambiguous whispers, and Xici didn't know if Gu Xun did it on purpose, so he nodded slightly, half-distracted, to express his agreement with his thoughts.

It was clearly the moment of urgency, but he was inexplicably distracted and focused on the intimate touch of his hands.

The boy's palm was strong and warm.

"The city lord has a black cat, which should be a hole in the enchantment here." Gu Xun continued, "Maybe it can help us find Xuanhe."

Gu Xun observed Xi Ci's expression, but in the end he didn't see any surprise or doubt, and his heart felt like a stone sank.

He said he believed him, so he didn't ask any more questions.

Xici closed his eyes, sensed the atmosphere around him, and realized that there was indeed an extremely strong evil spirit flowing somewhere.

"Changle Palace."

Changle Palace is the bedroom of the King Xilin, and logically there should be many people guarding the outside of the palace, but at the moment it is extremely depressed, and only a dim light can be vaguely seen inside.

Just as Xici was about to incarnate, Gu Xun grabbed him first, and whispered, "I suspect that the king of Xilin might be a puppet. That person should know we're here." Gu Xun looked around vigilantly before continuing. , "I'll go down and have a look first, you stay here and keep watch for me."

"Do not--"

Gu Xun naturally knew that Xici would retort, and before he could say anything, he put his index finger on Xici's lips to silence him.

"Don't talk," Gu Xun deliberately said, "You will be found out."

He blocked the mouths of others, but he had endless words to say, "I'll go in and look for you, and I'll definitely bring you back that red-headed bird intact."

Xici looked at him, feeling inexplicably that there was something in his eyes that attracted people to fall desperately...

For the first time, Gu Xun's slightly flushed pupils showed warmth that was not murderous. He softly comforted Xici, who was temporarily confused, "You must be safe and sound to protect the world you want to protect."

The breakthrough point of the enchantment is here, and Changle Palace will be the safest place in the entire enchantment.

If the king of Xilin can hold Xuanhe, maybe he can also deal with Xici.Gu Xun didn't dare to take the risk.

He lured Xi Ci here, and he went to bear the risk for him.

Gu Xun carried him to the side hall and settled him down.In a moment, many black shadows appeared in the red wall.

The black shadows tugged to appear from between the walls, and finally knelt on one knee to wait for Gu Xun's orders.

"Protect him." Gu Xun only said this. When he got up, he turned back to his original body. After setting up a strong barrier in this side hall, he took the inch-long ten thousand-sounding bone bell and went to the main hall.

Only one faint lamp was lit in the glorious main hall, which dimly illuminated the golden throne.The flickering light is like a struggle on the verge of death.

Like the man sitting on the throne.

Sensing the sound of footsteps, a ghostly green light flashed in the eyes of the black cat in the man's arms, and it fled away after screaming.

When the cat moved, the air it brought blew out the lamp. Gu Xun raised his finger to light it up again, and by the way—black shadows began to emerge from the walls of the hall...

The engulfing breath in the air was too heavy, as if it wanted to crush the dead body in the center of the hall into powder.

Xilin Wang looked at Gu Xun with empty eyes like rotten wood, and reluctantly turned around, and a dull voice came from his abdomen, "Who are you?"

"Guess." The Demon Lord's body is tall and straight, his black robe is hanging down, and every step he takes, he approached with evil spirit. When he reached the throne, Gu Xun stepped on the high hall with one leg bent, his elbows on his knees, and looked at him. With the dead body in front of him, he saw the anger in that person's eyes ignited, and suddenly smiled, "Did you kill him?"

You guessed it.The flicker of panic in the man's eyes was caught by Gu Xun just right.

This person is Yan Wu, or in other words... Yan Wu lived in this body—the original Xilin King, whose body had already begun to show cracks due to his death for too long.

His big body dwells in it, and if he is not careful, he will explode. Every movement is sluggish and cautious.

"Damn him!" The pent-up anger in his chest seemed to surge out, Yan Wu effortlessly turned his dead fish-like eyes, and there was a little emotion from them—resentment.

The king of Xilin forced his general to death. If the master hadn't kept him trapped in Xilin, he would have killed the king of Xilin a long time ago.

"Of course." Gu Xun raised his eyebrows in agreement, recalling the stories he heard in the Marriage Temple, he somehow understood Yan Wu's emotions, he smiled persuasively, "You want to help him avenge, how can you kill a person?" enough?"

"Not enough... Not enough... One hundred pairs... One hundred pairs..." Yan Wu was hooked by Gu Xun, muttering, and it took him a long time to realize that Gu Xun was quoting him, and suddenly roared angrily, too Out of anger, a terrible crack appeared at the corner of his mouth, "What do you want to do?!"

"I should ask you this question." Gu Xun's eyes darkened, "What is a hundred pairs? What did Chu Mingxiu tell you before he died?"

Gu Xun is challenging Yan Wu's bottom line. Yan Wu's body is trapped in Xilin Wang's body. If he stands up and fights with him, he will definitely be exposed.

and so……

Yan Wu's resentful eyes were nailed to Gu Xun's body like a nail, as if to penetrate him, suddenly a black shadow leaped behind him, accompanied by a miserable meow, Gu Xun only felt that the back of his bare/exposed hand was covered by the black shadow. The cat scratched hard, and the scratch immediately oozes fine drops of blood. After he evoked a successful smile, he watched soberly that everything in front of him turned into a dream created by Nanke wine...
