late night song

Chapter 127 Meeting in a narrow road

Gu Yuchu hid in the mountains and stayed in the cave where he often practiced martial arts.

The location here is excellent, and the exit of the academy is clearly visible. If Lejia Pengkang cannot resist the temptation and escapes from the control of the academy, she will know it immediately.

More importantly, she knew in her heart that the guards around Xiao Pengkang must be top-notch masters. She didn't need to be stupid enough to show off as a hero in the open, so she still kept silently in the dark, just in case. needs.

But it had only been half a month, and the situation in Sanxing Academy was calm, but there was an undercurrent in Yuquan Palace.

Mo Qian's belly was getting bigger day by day, and even an ordinary doctor could tell it was a boy by taking his pulse.

Emperor Dongqi Ming also knew this early. He estimated that the time was almost there. If the situation continued, Beiling's forces would penetrate even further, and it would be difficult to control them even if they took over.He did not tell Qi Jian, after all, he did not want him to interfere in such a shady matter. After all, Qi Jian had not yet ascended the throne, and he would never allow Dong Qi's new emperor to have any criticism or stain.

So he quietly ordered Mo Qian to poison Le Jia and return Yu.

When the news of Lejia Huanyu's death spread to Sanxing Academy, Hehe's domestic forces were eager to let Lejia Pengkang secretly return to the throne, so they ambush the killers on the road and get rid of them all, so that the Lejia royal family With no successor, he had to rely on the male fetus in Mo Qian's womb. In the end, Dong Qi supported Li Wei's puppet to overthrow the regime and drive away Beiling's forces.

But Le Jia Huanyu was not a piece of meat left to be slaughtered. Although he was poisoned, the miracle doctor Xuan Lai happened to stay in Qiongzhou and had the elixir hanging on him. He did not die immediately due to the poison, but he only lingered.

So, when he was dying, he ordered Mo Qian to be quietly placed under house arrest, spreading rumors about his death, but keeping his funeral secret. Then he drafted the edict of passing the throne in his own hand, and secretly sent someone to take Le Jiapengkang back to the court.

This is a race against time!
Under the dark night, three forces secretly attacked the foot of Qiyun Mountain.

In Sanxing Academy, Lejia Pengkang received two secret letters in one day.

One letter said: "The ruler of the country has passed away and will return to the court as soon as possible to ascend the throne."

Another letter said: "The king is well, please don't leave the academy even half a step."

This made Lejia Pengkang extremely flustered and didn't know what to do, but no matter what, when it came to his father's safety, he had to see it with his own eyes to feel at ease.

So, he decided to set off back to Qiongzhou immediately.

But what he didn't know was that these two letters were both Beiling's methods. Their purpose was nothing more than to confuse his mind and force him to break away from the protection of Sanxing Academy. After Dongqi attacked him, he pretended to rescue him. and completely surrendered to Beiling.

Things were progressing like Beiling's plan. Lejia Pengkang was ambushed as soon as he stepped down the mountain. Dongqi's secret guards were obviously well prepared. They disguised themselves as Beiling sergeants and killed the child.

The guards around Lejia Pengkang were weak and soon became overwhelmed.At this moment, Beiling's forces came out and the two sides were in a stalemate.He and his bodyguard saw the opportunity and took Lejia Pengkang away, but before they could escape for a while, they were caught up by the leaders of both sides.

He and his guards were defeated and vowed to protect him until the last moment.

Now, only two masters are left to snatch a young man.

Gu Yuchu watched from a distance. This skill was very familiar. One of them must be the mysterious person who fought with him at the inn that day, while the other one was a young boy, but his skill was amazing.

The mysterious man used all his moves to defeat the enemy, but it was difficult for the young man to resist. He took a few slaps and suffered serious internal injuries. However, he did not retreat, but faced the difficulties.

Just when the mysterious man was getting ready for the final blow, Gu Yuchu fired a cold arrow. Although it missed, it also disrupted his true energy, causing his meridians to go backwards. But after all, the mysterious man also had profound skills and restrained himself in time, only for a moment. Loss of [-]% of the internal energy.

Gu Yuchu took the opportunity to fly down and protect Lejia Pengkang, fighting side by side with the young man.

"It is not the behavior of a gentleman to stab someone in the dark." The mysterious man said coldly.

"Any gentleman who likes to be fooled will be fooled, but I am not." Gu Yuchu replied disdainfully, and then threw his sword to the young man beside him with a smile.

The boy next to her turned his face slightly, looked at her sideways, and took the weapon without hesitation.

Gu Yuchu twitched the corner of his mouth, pulled out the whip from his waist, and said to the frightened Lejia Pengkang sideways: "Go and find a safe place nearby."

Lejia Pengkang was very understanding and obediently withdrew from the battlefield and found a big tree to hide behind.After that, Gu Yuchu and the unknown young man immediately stood on a united front and spoke to the outside world in unison.

"Out of control."

The mysterious man squeezed out these four words through his teeth, and then took off his black cloak. Although he still wore a copper mask and couldn't see his true face clearly, the fierce eyes exposed also made the murderous aura rise in the woods. pole.

He struck out with all his strength, and his sword skills were superb. The peaks of his palms and the blades were intertwined, and they hit the two of them like huge waves rising up to the sky.

Gu Yuchu and the young man were not to be outdone. Although the first few moves were suppressed and it was difficult to find a breakthrough, the two cooperated tacitly and launched confrontations and flanking attacks.

Gu Yuchu's whip was like a dragon, and it tied the wrist of the mysterious man holding the sword. The young man raised the sword and pressed hard, but because his internal strength was not strong enough, he was unable to take away his weapon.

The mysterious man grabbed the tail of the whip with his backhand. Gu Yuchu turned his wrist with one hand to fix the whip in his hand, and then quickly spun and flipped on the spot. The tail of the whip rubbed against the mysterious man's palm until it broke free from his hand.

She whipped out again, and the mysterious man's cheek was scratched.

This angered him even more. He raised the knife and stabbed her in the abdomen. Fortunately, he dodged in time. Gu Yuchu only had some skin scratches on her waist, but it did not touch the ghostly palm.

Gu Yuchu took a few steps back and was about to hit the thick tree trunk behind him. Seeing this, the young man flew to block in front of the tree. Gu Yuchu leaned on the human cushion and didn't feel much pain. He only heard a muffled cry from someone behind him.

She spit out blood, and before she could thank her, the mysterious man came flying down with a knife. The two of them dodged, and the tree trunk behind them was already split into two pieces.

Having already gained the upper hand in the battle, the mysterious man did not hesitate to fight, but ran towards Lejia Pengkang. But when he was just one step away from restraining the target, Gu Yuchu's whip quickly locked his waist and abdomen, and she and The two young men worked together to pull him back, and just barely managed to withstand the mysterious man's deep internal strength.

"Give me the sword."

Gu Yuchu rolled his eyes, turned around and said to the young man.

The young man did not hesitate, immediately took the whip and handed over the long sword.She skillfully used Meng Xiuran's unique skill "Seven Swords of Jiangnan", and with the cooperation of the young man, after five or six rounds, the advantage of the mysterious man was completely broken. He was stabbed in the shoulder, the wound was deep, and there was a lot of blood.

"What did you do earlier?!" The young man saw this and scolded.

Gu Yuchu smiled slightly, how could he use this trick so easily.Besides, she had already tested the young man's martial arts skills to a great extent, so that after working together to deal with the mysterious man, she would know how to deal with him.

The mysterious man refused to admit defeat and continued to counterattack, but he was held hostage by two people.

Just when Gu Yuchu reached out to take off his mask, Lejia Pengkang stomped behind him at some point and inserted a dagger into his lower back.

The mysterious man bent one knee in pain, and just like that, he actually dodged Gu Yuchu's outstretched hand.At the critical moment, he made a desperate move, broke free from the hostage, gave up his goal, and fled.

Seeing that the crisis was over, Gu Yuchu bent down and touched Lejia Pengkang's head to comfort him who was slightly shivering.

"Don't be afraid."

"I'm not afraid!"

Lejia Pengkang was very tough-talking. Although he also shot well, this was the first time he hurt someone.

"Okay, come with me." Gu Yuchu narrowed his eyes, took his arm and left.

"and many more!"

The young man looked at them so closely with cold eyes and quickly blocked their way.

"You can't beat me, why bother." Gu Yuchu looked at him with a half-smile.

"Self-righteous!" The young man snorted.

"How about we ask him what he means, whether he wants to go with me or you." Gu Yuchu tapped his chin at Le Jia Pengkang, who had not yet come out of his shock.

Naturally, Lejia Pengkang quickly grabbed Gu Yuchu's arm and hid behind her.

"Give it up."

Gu Yuchu shook his shoulders and teased the young man, then dragged Lejia Pengkang and left in a swaggering manner.

"Rogue!" The young man was very self-aware and did not chase her. He just held his arms and cursed behind her, sighing.

Gu Yuchu suddenly turned around and looked at him suspiciously.

She clearly remembered that when she was very young, her younger brother was young and ignorant, and learned this stupid curse word from other people's young masters. Regardless of his father's scolding, he couldn't help but make milky noises when she bullied him. It sounds so cute when I think about it.

She didn't pay attention to him during the fight, but now she looked carefully, she saw that this boy was not much older than Lejia Pengkang, and there was an indescribable kindness between his eyebrows, and his gestures made her feel very familiar.

"Repented?" The young man looked surprised.

"How old are you this year?" she asked, frowning.

"Do you want to take care of it?" The young man was very impatient.

"Say quickly! Are you eighteen?"

"No." The young man replied simply.

Gu Yuchu didn't care about etiquette and rushed up to grab his arm, wanting to be more direct and see if there was a birthmark on his left arm.

"What on earth do you want to do?" The young man seemed to know what she was doing and hurriedly put his hands behind his back.

"You really aren't?"

"No."

"Then what's your name? Where is your home?"

"If you give him to me, I will tell you." The young man meant Lejia Pengkang and began to bargain.

"My name is Yuchi Yuchu." Gu Yuchu said his name word by word, his eyes full of inquiry and expectation.

"Nice to meet you. I'm Shuyuan, I'm twenty this year." The young man clasped his fists and replied politely.

"Happy to meet."

Gu Yuchu was in a trance, his eyes full of loss, and he said softly.Then she smiled at the young man, her bitterness palpable, then turned around and left with Lejia Pengkang.

But before she took two steps, she turned back and shouted to him: "If you need help from me in the future, go to Suo Xing Palace on Chenglu Street."

The young man looked at her back, his brows furrowed and his eyes slightly red.

In his mind, the figure that sometimes chased and played with him when he was young, and sometimes gently fed him sweets gradually became clearer. The joyful laughter seemed to be lingering in his ears. He wanted to call out to this figure who was walking further and further away. He told her from behind that his real name was Yuchi Jingheng, and he was the only biological brother she was looking for.
