Save my wife all over the world

Chapter 139 Swordsman and Demon Slayer (25)

================================

The heavy rain continued, and a ray of light suddenly lit up the sky, followed by a dull rumbling sound.

Gu Zhong put his hand on the latch of the wooden door, and slowly moved it away, the strong wind outside the house pushed the door open a crack impatiently.

A hand opened the door completely from the outside, and the rain and wind spilled into the house in large swaths, and the dry and tidy floor was wet with muddy water.

A man wearing a bamboo hat was standing at the door. It looked like a man. The brim of the hat was lowered to cover his face. On the coir raincoat on his body, the rainwater gathered into a small river and flowed down.

"Long time no see, Elder Gu."

He pulled up the bamboo hat with the other hand, and the light of the oil lamp managed to reflect half of his face.

Red-purple centipedes twisted and crawled all over his face, and the pitted skin seemed to have been burned by fire. This is a ghost face that can scare children into tears.

"Chucheng? Come in..."

Gu Zhong recognized the person, relaxed his mind, and gave way to a passage to surpass him.

Chu Cheng quickly got into the room, took off the bamboo hat and coir raincoat, and exposed his entire face.

——Half asura, half crown jade.

Ling Yan sighed silently in her heart. After the great battle that day, although Chu Cheng was rescued, after all, due to the trauma she suffered, she turned into this neither human nor ghost appearance.

"It's raining a lot today—are you eating?"

Chu Cheng picked up the teapot on the table and poured himself a cup of hot tea without hesitation, squinting his eyes comfortably.

"So what are you doing here on a rainy day?"

Gu Zhong reinserted the latch and sat back at the table.

"Can't it be that I miss you? Come here specially to visit?"

I don't know if it's because Chu Cheng's conversation with them is much more casual now because he has let go of the dignity and pride of the exorcist.

"If you have nothing to do, don't go to the Three Treasures Hall. The Great Master of Chu has a lot of opportunities every day, so how can you come here? Talk about business."

Ling Yan rolled his eyes at him.

"What kind of national teacher - my current ability is declining day by day, and I am almost inferior to ordinary people -"

Chu Cheng smiled wryly and laughed at himself.

Hearing his words, Ling Yan and Gu Zhong also fell silent.

The patriarch is dead, and the blood contract that accompanied it naturally no longer exists, and the power obtained from the blood contract naturally shouldn't exist either.

The Demon Transformers are gone, the great demons who continued the bloodline of the ancestors have also turned into ashes, and the Demon Eliminators should also dissipate. In this world, only the Demon Eliminator swordsmen and the original demons from the past will be left—not too much. many.

The once trampled laws were re-established, and a delicate balance was reached again.

But they believe that in the not-too-distant future, monsters will eventually be completely abandoned by the world and become the ashes of history, no longer existing in this world.

"So, what happened?"

After a while, Gu Zhong continued to ask.

With Chu Cheng saying this, the purpose of coming here must not be pure.

"I don't know if you have heard the news—the king wants to establish a new queen."

His expression became serious and dignified, and Chu Cheng spoke slowly.

"I just found out, is there any problem with this matter?"

Recalling the home letter that Bai Ri Lingyan told her, Gu Zhong now clearly remembers the news.

"The National Teacher's Office took on some internal duties, tailoring clothes for the new queen, and making witch clothes for the grand ceremony. However——"

Chu Cheng reached into his arms and took out a scroll.

The torrential rain wet his coat, and the scroll inevitably had some water stains on it.

"This damn rainstorm!"

Cursing in a low voice, Chu Cheng handed the scroll to Gu Zhong.

"Look at it."

After receiving the scroll, Gu Zhong and Ling Yan got together and slowly unfolded it.

This is a black and white ink picture of a woman undressing. The lines are concise and clear. The skills are not all superb, but they all have charm. It can be seen that the painter completed this painting in a very short period of time.

The woman in the painting does not show her face, only her smooth back is facing the viewer outside the painting. What is particularly striking is that there is a distinct line on her back waist and her slender fingertips, which are specially painted with cinnabar.

"This is?"

Gu Zhong tightened her hand holding the painting scroll, she raised her head and stared at Chu Cheng.

"The new queen."

Chu Cheng's answer was filled with deep worry.

"One of the disciples in the mansion happened to be there that day, and she felt that it was new and strange, and she also liked to paint, so she drew a group painting of the new queen's clothing after she came back.

I saw it, so I asked her to choose a new one and then make another pair—if nothing else happens, the new queen should be a demon, maybe she is the real possessed demon.

But now that the king is bewitched by it, and the demon master is getting weaker and weaker, I am afraid that he is not the opponent of this kind of monster, so I have to ask you to go out and try. "

Look at the red line on the woman's waist and the red on the fingertips.

A cluster of sparks flashed across Gu Zhong's thoughts, and she suddenly realized something.

Why can Xuanhu escape from death?Why can awaken the patriarch who was sealed in the underground of the king's capital?Why can I contact Gu Xuansheng?Why is the court controlled by the National Teacher's Office?Why is the queen possessed by a demon?

If she had been hiding in the palace with someone else's body from beginning to end, then everything would be explained.

"It's not like you don't know how bad Gu Zhong's health is after that day, so you still look for her?"

Ling Yan snatched the painting from Gu Zhong in dissatisfaction, and gave Chu Cheng a hard look.

"I'll just go!"

"I agree with this matter."

This is the first time that Gu Zhong ignored Ling Yan's words.

"Gu Zhong! What did you promise me today?"

With her phoenix eyes widened, Ling Yan tried her best to put on a fierce expression, and turned to Gu Zhong to look at her.

"Ayan, it's okay."

Gu Zhong sighed lightly and smiled at her slightly.

"no!"

Ling Yan's energy rose, and the volume increased several times.

"Uh—please, both of you. It's raining heavily tonight and it's inconvenient to travel, so don't worry too much about it. There is still nearly a month before the Empress Dowager Ceremony. You——you can discuss it slowly.

I'm temporarily staying at the inn in the town for the past few days, and come to me anytime I have any results.

I'm bothering you today, so farewell! "

Sensing the faint smell of gunpowder in the air, in order to avoid being affected by accidental injury—after all, there has been such a lesson before, Chu Cheng decisively chose to leave.

He picked up the rain gear that was thrown on the ground, and fled in spite of the pouring rain outside the house.

"You can't go!"

The quarrel in the house continued.

Looking at Ling Yan's stubborn lips, Gu Zhong felt extremely headache, so he could only choose to block it with his lips again.

"Well—stay away from me, don't even try to get out of this door if you say anything this time!"

Pushing Gu Zhong away from her, Ling Yan stood up and said aggressively, which shows that she is determined this time.

"But Ah Yan, that monster may be the one I've been looking for for many years—"

Gu Zhong put on a pitiful look, staring at Ling Yan helplessly, trying to awaken the love deep in her soul.

Ling Yan was stunned for a moment, Gu Zhong had told her about the genocide hundreds of years ago.

The Patriarch was not supposed to find her tribe, but someone prophesied to it—that person is still alive, and most likely also became a demon.

It tried every means to kill Gu Zhong, from using the patriarch to Gu Xuansheng at the beginning, it used everything to the extreme.

Unfortunately, it is like a mouse in the gutter, hiding and hiding, without being seen.

Although the monsters in the world will eventually perish, as long as it exists for a day, Gu Zhong will not be absolutely safe, not to mention the life and death enmity between the two.

"Perhaps not?"

Ling Yan softened her tone, but still hesitated to veto it.

"Maybe it is? Even if there is a one in ten thousand possibility, I have to see it with my own eyes."

Gu Zhong's tone was firm, and he was also unwilling to take half a step back.

"All right, all right, you can go, but there are three rules!"

In the end, Ling Yan was defeated.

After all, this is what Gu Zhong cares most about. She can't use the banner of being good for Gu Zhong to deprive her of her choices and wishes.

"Ok?"

"First, I'm going too! Second, you're not allowed to get out of my sight! Third—you're not allowed to do anything! I'll be your thug. How about it?"

Ling Yan snapped her fingers, and counted one by one.

There is nothing wrong with this contract, it's just that Gu Zhong obediently acts as a mascot.

Gu Zhong opened his eyes wide and looked at her tangled up.

"What's the matter? Can you do it?"

The domineering question immediately chased him out, Ling Yan bent down, and stared at Gu Zhong with an oppressive attitude.

"Okay, listen to Madam."

Thoughts turned thousands of times, but Gu Zhong no longer hesitated, and responded with a warm voice with a smile.

"Really?"

Ling Yan narrowed her eyes and looked at her suspiciously, as if she didn't quite believe that the person in front of her would really be obedient.

"Really! I lied to you as a puppy, woof!"

Gu Zhong immediately made an exaggerated gesture and imitated a dog bark twice.

"Then pack up your things tomorrow and go to Chucheng again—the rain doesn't seem to stop tonight, I hope the river won't rise too high—I'm afraid you won't be able to go out—"

Ling Yan finally let go of this topic, and began to complain about the heavy rain.

-

In the middle of the night, the river pouring from the sky gradually turned into a stream, and the sound of falling on the ground and water surface became softer until it was completely silent.

The dark clouds dispersed from the night sky, and no one could see where they went.

The brilliance of the moonlight lovingly caresses this water town, illuminating a piece of sparkling light, which is warm and sweet when combined with the faint lights.

A person quietly stepped down from the bed, put on her shoes and socks, and coughed violently in a low voice. She cut off a stick of incense by the window and let the ash fall into the incense burner.

I lit the oil lamp, put down the handkerchief covering the corners of my lips, a bright blood color dazzled my eyes.

Ever since he killed the Patriarch, Gu Zhong knew that his time was numbered.Her longevity comes from the power of demons, and when the source is exhausted, her vitality is also cut off.

This time, in a sense, Xuanhu finally succeeded in killing her.

If the news from Chucheng is true, if so many coincidences are not coincidences, then now is the time to end it.

But just because it was probably Xuanhu, Ling Yan absolutely couldn't go with her—her soul was too weak to suffer any more serious injuries.

The Xuanhu who has been hiding in the palace for so long, the Xuanhu who has calculated countless people every step of the way, the Xuanhu who still has the power of a demon - what other cards can she show?What will be the consequences?Gu Zhong didn't know either.

Going this time, if she loses, she will just enter the next cycle; if she wins, everything will come to an end, but——

——Ayan can't get hurt anymore.

With such belief in mind, Gu Zhong packed his bag alone and ran towards the night without making a sound.

This time, she was still a bastard who missed appointments.
