lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapters of the sealing knife!

When Gu Xiao walked out of the dungeon, it was already bright.

He has a kerchief in his hand, wiping the blade inch by inch, and the blood-stained knife returns to the bright, but the white kerchief is mottled red.

School Lieutenant Lin walked two steps ahead of him, only feeling that if there were thorns on his back, the atmosphere would not come out.

The living mouths in the dungeon have become dead.

School Wei Lin was naturally not the first time he saw a dead person, but for the first time he truly realized that death is a kind of relief.

Three hours, Gu Xiao dropped three hundred knives on the man. From skin to bone, he picked up the tendons and broke the veins, and cut a tall man into skin and bones. During this time, he kept repeating a question. Only one answer is repeated.

"Three years ago, he was the one who poured me mad medicine, threw me into the Weeping Blood Cave, and turned to ashes. I know this man... I asked him who ordered him and he said...' By the order of the palace lord, do what the king does.” Gu Xiao wiped off the last drop of blood from the Jinghong knife, and looked up at Xiaoli Lin’s back, “Master Lin, you have been in charge of torture for many years, and people have been tortured. At this point, you can't tell lies anyway, right?"

School Lieutenant Lin did not look back, but the chill behind his back fluttered. He managed to keep his voice from trembling: "Yes."

"Since he didn't tell lies, it's true..." Gu Xiao paused, "Duan Wang Chuyan, colluded with the soul burial palace and killed my master... right?"

"Yes, yes!"

The corners of Gu Xiao’s mouth moved: "Why? Our masters and disciples didn’t get into trouble with him. Since the case of Qin Gong, the king didn’t ask about the government. Why did we do these things?"

Lin Xiaowei gave a strong smile: "The king of Duan should have a promising future, but because he colluded with Qin Hebai to seek rebellion, he was completely ruined from the previous process, and there was no action on the surface, just because he secretly intended to be difficult."

Gu Xiao stared at him steadily. After a moment of silence, the sword was put into its sheath, and he even smiled slightly, agreeing: "It's hard to make a sense...that's right."

Lin Xiaowei's heart finally landed with a big stone. He slowed down and waited for Gu Xiao to catch up and walk side by side until a fork in the road, the two went their separate ways.

The smile on Gu Xiao's face slowly disappeared from the corner of his mouth after his back completely disappeared from the corner, murmured: "That's right."

He turned around in the bleak autumn wind, raising dust.

The sun came out of the sky, Chu Yao had used breakfast, and for the first time he didn't wait for the master to copy a wooden stick to chase him. He cleverly and consciously got on the plum blossom pile and started practicing, shaking up and down on the high and low piles. When the sweat soaked his clothes and hair, he didn't mean to stop, until he was suddenly pricked by a candied haws.

"Ayao, the next game is unstable, so I have to practice hard." Gu Xiao caught him with a smile, and put the candied fruit in Chu Yao's mouth. The young boy subconsciously licked the icing that was wrapped outside, and the sweet smell filled his mouth. He blinked like a puppy that gnawed at flesh and bones.

Gu Xiao put him down, squatted on the ground and looked at the sky, and sighed: "It's strange that the sun doesn't come out from the west, so the **** will go up too!"

Chu Yao's "Thank you" was suffocated alive, and angrily took a bite of the sugar hawthorn, Chew alive, chew, and eat.

He swallowed a mouthful of candied haws and looked up at Gu Xiao: "Master, are you in a bad mood?"

Gu Xiao raised her eyebrows: "Huh?"

"You look like you are about to cry." Chu Yao cautiously touched the corner of his eye with one hand, thinking about how to comfort people, but unfortunately he was spoiled since he was a child. After all, he had no choice but to Put the bite of the candied haws close to Gu Xiao's mouth, learning how he usually coaxes himself, "Master, take a bite, it's sweet."

Gu Xiao looked at him for a moment, then took Chu Yao's hand, opened his mouth and bit down all the way. In the blink of an eye, a candied hawthorn was left with bare bamboo sticks, and he exhaled, dozens of hawthorns. The seeds fell neatly on the sand.

"Well, it's sweet."

"..."

Chu Yao held the bamboo stick and looked at the hawthorn seeds on the ground. He was dumbfounded for a while, and even forgot to cry.

Gu Xiao looked at him and couldn't help laughing anymore.

When he laughed like this, Chu Yao finally recovered, his mouth was flat, but he did not cry unexpectedly. He threw the bamboo stick with his backhand, and it was in the middle of a plum blossom pile, although the wood was extremely shallow and swayed. Anyhow, it didn't fall.

"The head is good." Gu Xiao praised, poking his bun in the face, "I ate your candied haws, why don't you cry?"

"I asked you to eat." Chu Yao sniffed, then touched the corners of his mouth with his hands, "just smile."

"...A Yao, you deserve to be my personal disciple."

"Huh?"

"At a young age, I'm so glib, what can I do when I grow up?" Gu Xiao squeezed his face, "Fortunately, you are coaxing me from the master. If it is a little girl, I am afraid that the wife will be abducted. "

Chu Yao was filled with his fate for three years, and the sugar fillings were replaced with egg yolk cores. He shook his head into a rattle when he heard the words: "Don't want a wife, they care about the money!" /

Gu Xiao teased him: "Don't want a wife? What do you want?"

Chu Yao hugged his neck and didn't let go: "Master!"

Gu Xiao was taken aback, and then she patted her legs and laughed: "A candied haws will sell me to you. Master is too cheap, right?"

Chu Yao blushed with a real smile.

Gu Xiao didn’t go anywhere on this day, and spent a lot of patience with Chu Yao in the martial arts practice. He tested his skills from four aspects: mind, footwork, swordsmanship, and martial arts, a little bit bye. He explained to him the correction in a rotten manner, with words and deeds, and took the trouble to make Chu Yao feel embarrassed if he wanted to be lazy.

He just slumped on the ground like a dead dog during the break, raising his eyes to look at Gu Xiao, weak: "Master, can't we take it slowly in the future?"

Gu Xiao took a sip of water: "Today's things are finished today, how can there be so many things to mention in the future?"

Chu Yao continued to protest: "I'm still young..."

"You will grow up." After a pause, Gu Xiao said, "Soon."

Chu Yao lay on the ground and refused to get up: "Then you go and teach Brother Xun first! He has grown up!"

"He...he doesn't need me to teach anymore."

Chu Yao was still young, and he couldn't hear the meaning of his words. He just recalled the unsuspecting discussion last night, braced his neck and said: "Then let Brother Xun protect me!"

Gu Xiao paused when he wanted to pull him up: "A Yao."

When Chu Yao heard his voice turn cold, he was taken aback for a while, and he didn't dare to shame anymore, and got up, Gu Xiao's palm fell on his head, but instead of touching him, he stayed quietly.

He said blankly: "Master...Father?"

"There are too many things in the world that hurt others and yourself. No one can protect you forever, except yourself." Gu Xiao's voice was very soft, "People's hearts are changeable, so don't trust others too much. Think about it, you know?"

Chu Yao felt that there was some unfounded sadness in his words, but he didn't know how to refute, so he could only subconsciously nod his head and obediently pick up the wooden knife and put it on the stake.

Gu Xiao glanced at the evening sky, and turned around to see the silhouette standing silently under the promenade. The smoky embroidered cloak made a face paler, even rouge couldn't hide his fatigue.

"I have seen the princess in a humble position."

Princess Jing retracted her gaze on Chu Yao, took a deep look at Gu Xiao, and said: "No one has ever dared to say this to A Yao."

Gu Xiao knew that she was here, so Shi Cai's words were not just for Chu Yao. He smiled slightly: "The princess regards A Yao as a treasure in the palm of her heart, and naturally she is not willing to use these pickles to defile him. Eyes and ears, but now things are coming, he can't be an innocent child for a lifetime."

Princess Jing shook her head: "I won't tell him, not only because of this."

Gu Xiao raised her eyes and heard her continue: "The ignorant is not guilty. He only knows nothing, so he can survive."

The martial arts field has always been the private place of Gu Xiao and Chu Yao. The princess loves her son. She has long ordered that no one except herself and the prince can enter this place without authorization. Gu Xiao has also placed her credible people around. Now she has An acre of land for a good conversation.

Gu Xiao carefully savored the words of Princess Jing for a moment, and tasted a bit of bitterness from it.

He considered it for a while, and said: "The princess is too worried, the prince is the one who made great things, and Ayao is even more blessed."

"There have been people who have fallen short of their work since ancient times, and there are countless people who have a weak relationship. Sometimes the organs are exhausted, and it depends on God's mood." Princess Jing hooked her mouth, but couldn't see much smile. "The prince called me early this morning and asked me to stay in the mansion to do some housework. In recent days, there have been more turmoil, so I will go out less."

Gu Xiao knew in her heart that although King Jing did not anger the princess because of Princess Yuning, there would be estrangement in the end. Such an approach was already the safest way to deal with their relationship between husband and wife.

When Princess Jing saw that he didn't speak, she just smiled, meaninglessly, and said: "It's windy in the north, I'll send some clothes and hot soup."

She left after speaking, leaving only a smoky back in Gu Xiao's eyes, like a stream gurgling in the mist, not clear, but quietly flowing around the corner of the mountain pass, moisturizing the grass, trees, earth and rocks .

A gust of wind blew over, and Gu Xiao's expression instantly changed.

At three quarters, Wan Lai's voice is superb.

Yongchang Alley used to be a beggar’s alley. The house inside was in disrepair for a long time, and many homeless beggars lived in it. Unfortunately, last year, a flood caused a fire. Although most of the people escaped, they still appeared. Death and injury, since then, there have been rumors that this place is haunted, even if pedestrians pass by during the day, they will subconsciously detour, even if they do not believe in ghosts and gods, they do not intend to get bad luck.

However, Gu Xiao has been waiting here for half an hour.

He was dressed in black and almost blended with the night, his legs clamped a crumbling roof beam, people were like a gecko clinging to the shadows, wild cats came and went on the ruined wall, rats in the dirt The **** pile was snarling, spiders had formed a net, and he did not alarm any creatures, even the cold wind poured in from the broken doors and windows, but only the dust from his body was blown off.

School Lieutenant Lin entered the house with this gust of wind. After he entered the door, he blew the fire fold. The light of the fire was barely enough for him to see. Everything in the room was projected on the wall. Lieutenant Lin again Picking up a few pebbles and throwing them at the dead corner of his brother, there were clear beating sounds one after another.

He breathed a sigh of relief, and stood behind a pillar, not only not revealing himself, but also able to hide the fire from being noticed by outsiders.

Gu Xiao frowned. He came to meet Ruan Feiyu as scheduled, but he didn't expect to wait for Xiaoli Lin first, and it seemed that he was waiting for someone to observe the situation of the other party.

With a turn of his mind, Gu Xiao lowered his breath to the lightest level, and waited for a stick of incense before the third person finally entered here.

It was a tall man, wearing autumn clothes and cotton shoes that fit the season, his appearance was extremely ordinary, but when he spoke, Gu Xiao's pupils shrank!

Although the man spoke in Mandarin, he had a northern accent. He saluted Xiaoli Lin and said in a low voice: "My lord, General'Hutar' sent his subordinates to deliver the letter!"

Hutar, the general of the northern barbarian tribe, is also a member of the barbarian royal family. He is one of the most important players in the next great sweat. He is violent and greedy, and his soldiers are vicious and vicious. He led his army to fight with the northern frontier army, almost He committed the crime of massacre, but fortunately he was guarded by the border soldiers and civilians.

However, Hutar was ordered to be stationed permanently on the border of northern Xinjiang, and the military commanders of Great Chu were all very concerned about this person. Seeing that the two countries are preparing for peace talks, how could he send someone to send a letter to Lieutenant Lin?

Gu Xiao held her breath and did not move.

Lieutenant Lin took the parchment paper, and after it was smoked and roasted on the fold, he carefully read it, and his frowned brows slowly loosened: "Okay! Since the general is sincere, I will inform the prince as soon as possible. I will reply to you within two days!"

While speaking, he cautiously put the parchment in his arms, and said: "Have you ever encountered any trouble along the way?"

"Don't worry, my lord, everything is going well." The man said: "The Northern Barbarian Front Army has been converted into a caravan and guards and easy-to-go talk missions. They will arrive at the Shocking Pass in the near future. By then, the gates will be opened. Plan, wait for the border war to come together..."

Lin Xiaowei smiled coldly: "When the war comes together, the prince will never miss his appointment and upset the situation in Tianjing!"

The man asked: "The general asks his subordinates to speak, how sure is the prince?"

"The emperor is powerless now. Among the princes, the only ones with military power are the prince and the prince. When the war comes, the prince will unite the manpower to push the prince to lead the army out of Beijing to guard the border. Controlling the royal family, why worry about not being able to achieve great things?"

"Although King Duan does not have a weapon in his hand, he has a close relationship with the generals and cannot be ignored!"

"Don't worry, the prince has prepared a good knife for Duan Wang, he will kill him at any time..."

"..."

Gu Xiao put these words into his ears without missing a word, not even slapped his breath, only his eyes were as cold as a blade.

The two people below also know the truth of the long story. After quickly exchanging information between the two sides, they left the place for the next contact.

Gu Xiao finally moved.

School Lieutenant Lin walked in front, carefully pushed the door halfway open, and confirmed that there was no one outside. He raised his hand to signal the person behind him to take the first step, but he did not see the person coming forward. Instead, a gust of wind blew in. Swept out with a faint smell of blood.

His hand paused in the air, and his mind hadn't reacted yet, and his body had instinctively shot out of the door, like a flying arrow.

School Lieutenant Lin moved quickly. He jumped out three feet with this breath. He couldn't stand still, and he couldn't wait to look back at the situation in the room.

There was no one at the door, but his body suddenly slammed into a wall of flesh.

The disappeared person appeared in front of Xiaowei Lin again, his eyes widened, staring at him firmly.

Xiaowei Lin has licked blood with a knife for several years, and it is natural to see that this person is dead, the very thin incision on the neck has a line of meat, and the body still has residual heat.

But how can the dead move?

School Lieutenant Lin just thought of this, and a strong force hit him through the body of the dead man, and his unsteady steps abruptly left the ground. He was beaten back to the broken house behind him along with the corpse. The strength and angle were both accurate, and two people fell to the ground one dead and one alive, without touching the door frame or overturning debris and making abnormal noises.

As soon as Lieutenant Lin pushed the dead person away from him, a cold knife pointed into the entrance.

"Say one more sentence and cut your tongue."

Gu Xiao stepped on his abdomen, Xiao Wei Lin's pupils tightened, but there was a blade in his mouth, and his words were vague: "You... Gu... Ah!"

The force went down and pressed the dantian, and the pain spread instantly, Xiaowei Lin trembled all over, the blade opened his lips, and his mouth was bleeding suddenly.

The scream was short and low, and he didn't dare to make a second sound, because after the blade left his mouth, it had been aimed at one of his eyes.

The number of lives killed in his life is not as great as the fear of life and death at this moment. Lieutenant Lin didn't think about resisting, but Gu Xiao shot too fast and caught off guard. He missed the opportunity in front of Jinghong Dao, just lost Stay alive.

School Lieutenant Lin tried to suppress his own tone not to be too embarrassed: "Gu Xiao, why are you here?!"

"Why Master Lin is here, why am I here." Gu Xiao smiled slightly, "If it weren't, how would you know that the prince's picture is so big? But standing so high, wouldn't you be afraid of falling worse? "

School Lieutenant Lin saw him, and his heart was cold, knowing that the secret conversation just now was heard by this person, and now it is futile to deny the sophistry, so he has to change his tone: "Since you know it is the lord's Order, you should know how to do it! Now you are doing this, is it ungrateful to the prince?"

"Master Lin is right, of course I know..." Gu Xiao's eyes drooped slightly, and the corners of his mouth slowly fell back. "Wang Er, etc. colluded with He Lianyu and caused the death of my teacher, and I will bear your pretense. Good people mistake me for misfortune, Shuidong cited the thief as a righteousness?"

School Lieutenant Lin shook all over, and the tip of the knife almost touched his eyeballs.

"In those days, today's love, Gu Xiao listened to the adult's explanation, never dared to interrupt, but..." He leaned slightly, and the blade slowly fell on Lieutenant Lin’s hand. "If an adult cheats a word again, he will cut the adult's bones at the bottom, starting with the fingers... How many bones are there in life, would the adults be interested to count them down tonight?"

"You—you dog thief! You are a tiger, if you commit a mess, you should be slashed...ah!"

As soon as the scream was exited, a piece of moldy rotten wood was pressed back into his mouth, and a small **** fingertip appeared on the ground.

Gu Xiao took away the piece of wood and said lightly: "The first piece."

School Wei Lin didn’t know how many people had been tortured over the years, but he was tortured for the first time. With ten fingers connected to his heart, he trembled with pain and stared at Gu Xiao, “You...when did you know? It's us..."

"I asked you, not you." The blade fell on the second knuckle, and Gu Xiao's voice turned cold. "Say everything you know, don't miss a word, otherwise... …"

School Lieutenant Lin was also stubborn, enduring the pain and said: "Otherwise, what can you do?"

Gu Xiao turned his head to avoid a **** saliva, and even smiled: "Master Lin is so stubborn and loyal. I can't take you whatsoever, but... dignified Nanru, can't he take you whatsoever? Like?"

School Wei Lin's face changed instantly!

Gu Xiao didn't look back, and said lightly: "Master Ruan, you asked me to come here to play on stage and kill with a knife. Now that the show has been watched, the human flesh is under the knife. If you don't show up again, you can There is no patience to stay alive."

As soon as his voice fell, the door behind him was pushed open again.

Lieutenant Lin put up his upper body laboriously and looked over Gu Xiao's shoulders, and saw that he was a seemingly thin middle-aged man, with elegant and cold brows, and a dark brocade-patterned scribes robe that was not covered by flesh and blood. Support it, just like resting on a withered tree trunk.

This is unintentionally a humble person, but Xiaowei Lin saw him, but he was more frightened than seeing Gu Xiao suddenly attacked, as if he had seen a ghost!

Ruan Feiyu!
