Chapter 57 Assassination of the Man in Black
"Young master Gu? Young master Gu also left the house?" Chun Xia asked in surprise.

"That's right, let's go, don't make Brother Chang Geng wait too long, I will meet him on the street of Qingchengfang."

Lin Qingqian pulled Chun Xia forward, along the way, the streets were bustling, and various small stalls and hawkers kept shouting, making it extremely lively.

Arriving at the agreed place, Lin Qingqian looked around. There was a lot of people, but she couldn't see any familiar figure. She muttered suspiciously, "Huh? Why didn't you see Brother Chang Geng? Didn't we make an appointment to meet here at Sishi?"

"Could it be that Mr. Gu hasn't left the mansion yet?"

"I don't know, just wait and see."

As soon as the words fell, Chun Xia pointed behind Lin Qingqian and said, "Miss, look quickly, it's Young Master Gu, he's over there."

Lin Qingqian looked in the direction Chunxia pointed, and Gu Changgeng walked over, dressed in white clothes like snow, with a cold face.

"Brother Chang Geng, I thought you hadn't left the residence yet."

"I just went to one place first."

Lin Qingqian blinked her black and white eyes suspiciously, "Where did Brother Chang Geng go?"

Gu Changgeng's thin lips twitched slightly, swallowed the words as they reached his lips, and then said, "It's just a walk around, let's go, didn't you want to come and take a stroll when you left the mansion?"

After finally being able to leave the house for a trip, Lin Qingqian stopped asking, and said with a smile: "Okay, let's go. On the way here, I saw a person selling candied haws on that street. Let's go buy a bunch first."

Thinking of the sweet and sour taste, Lin Qingqian couldn't help swallowing.

Gu Changgeng nodded slightly, and walked forward behind her and Chunxia.

After walking a few steps, Gu Changgeng suddenly stopped, turned his head, and stared at the busy street behind him with a slight frown.

After walking for a while, Lin Qingqian realized that Gu Changgeng hadn't followed, turned around and shouted at him, "Brother Changgeng, why are you standing still and not leaving?"

Gu Changgeng withdrew his gaze, stepped up to follow, and said calmly: "It's okay, let's go."

After leaving the mansion, maybe it was superfluous, I always felt that someone was following behind me, but when I turned around, I couldn't see anything wrong.

Lin Qingqian bought candied haws, took a bite herself, and handed the other bunch to Gu Changgeng, "Brother Changgeng, you can eat it too, it's delicious."

Seeing that the two were eating with gusto, Gu Changgeng also took a bite, it was sweet and sour, not tasty, but Lin Qingqian seemed to like it very much, and she narrowed her eyes in satisfaction.

"Miss, look quickly, there is a sugar maker in front of you, it looks like it."

Lin Qingqian looked over, her eyes lit up immediately, and she said with a smile, "Come on, let's go over and let the master pinch one."

So from the street to the end of the street, Lin Qingqian's eyes were fixed on all kinds of food, and if she bought anything that was too late to eat, she let Chunxia and Gu Changgeng take it all.

"Miss, let's go to a jewelry or clothing store." Chun Xia said with a bitter face.

She was ashamed to say that if it wasn't for the brocade clothes on the young lady, surrounded by pearls and emerald greens, people in the street might mistakenly think that the young lady was locked up and starved for several days before she was released.

Lin Qingqian raised the corners of her mouth and said, "There is no such thing as good food in a clothing store and a jewelry store. Let's go shopping again. There is a dim sum shop in front that looks good..."

Just in time, I saw a group of people gathered in front of a restaurant, and heard the sound of gongs beating in the distance. A man full of air shouted: "Everyone, come and have a look, my lady is gentle and generous, she is as good as a fish and a wild goose. Today, I will throw a hydrangea ball again to find Mr. Ruyi." , all young masters who are not yet married, come and take a look..."

"It seems very interesting over there. Let's go, let's go and have a look in spring and summer."

Lin Qingqian had only watched the hydrangea ball to recruit relatives, and never thought that today she would encounter a live broadcast.

With a helpless expression on Gu Changgeng's handsome face, he silently followed behind Lin Qingqian, careful not to let her be squeezed by the crowd.

Upstairs stood a young woman in a red wedding gown. Although she was not as good as she said, she was still pretty and pleasant.

At a corner not far away, two men in black wearing bamboo hats looked at each other with a cold and fierce light in their eyes. His voice approached Gu Changgeng.

Lin Qingqian was excited to see it, she turned her head to Gu Changgeng and said, "Brother Changgeng, who do you think will catch this hydrangea ball?"

"I don't know."

"You..." Lin Qingqian paused suddenly.

The two men in black wearing bamboo hats on a sunny day made Lin Qingqian feel strange, and couldn't help but take a second look. Suddenly, a cold light flashed in the man's hand, she widened her eyes, and quickly pushed Gu Changgeng.

"Brother Chang Geng, be careful!"

Gu Changgeng was pushed and staggered a step, just in time to dodge the cold sword.

The man in black pierced the air with his sword, and then slashed the sword towards Gu Changgeng with his backhand. Gu Changgeng could barely dodge sideways, his arm and clothes were cut.

Another black-clothed man pressed forward step by step, and his sword was fierce. Gu Changgeng rolled on the ground a few times, dodging the fatal move in embarrassment, but was stabbed in the shoulder by the sword.

The blood stained the white clothes instantly.

The people who were watching the hydrangea recruiting relatives just now were scared and screamed and ran away.

Gu Changgeng clutched his wound, panting and knelt on the ground.

Seeing the two men in black raised their swords and slashed at him, Lin Qingqian panicked and shouted "Chun Xia!" The two of them picked up the wooden stool on the tea stand and threw it at him.

The man in black was caught off guard and was hit on the arm. He groaned in pain, and the sword in his hand fell to the ground with a "bang". Chun Xia threw the wooden stool and hit another man in black directly on the head. It made him take a few steps back.

Lin Qingqian gritted her teeth, dragged Chun Xia, who was still in shock, to help the injured Gu Changgeng, and said anxiously, "Run!"

Gu Changgeng turned pale, endured the pain, and was supported by Lin Qingqian to run forward.

Lin Qingqian ran forward desperately while looking back.

The two men in black quickly came to their senses and chased after them with their swords in hand. Lin Qingqian was so anxious that she was about to be overtaken.

Having no other choice, she stopped, took out the purse from Chunxia's hand to pay the bill from her sleeve just now, poured out all the money inside, threw it behind her hard, and shouted: "Someone threw money! Come on, everyone!" Pick up silver!"

A group of ordinary people flocked to pick up the silver, temporarily blocking the way of the man in black.

Seeing that Chunxia was stunned with fear, Lin Qingqian grabbed Gu Changgeng's arm and shouted loudly: "What are you doing stunned! Why don't you run!"

Chun Xia panicked and ran to catch up with Lin Qingqian.

The three of them ran forward like headless chickens. They didn't pay attention for a while, and ran to the empty street. Gu Changgeng tripped over a stone under his feet and fell to the ground.

Lin Qingqian hurriedly knelt down to help him, "Brother Chang Geng, are you okay? Hurry up, they're going to catch up, get up and run..."

Gu Changgeng looked back, panting, pushed away Lin Qingqian who was struggling to help him up, gritted his teeth, and said with difficulty: "Hurry up! You go first, I am injured, take me with you, we No one can go!"
