Chapter 77: Will He or Won’t He?
Gu Qingheng wasn’t sure if he was lucky or unlucky. Just as everyone was admiring flowers, he happened to encounter a martial arts dispute, which directly made the carriage stop.
What’s more, the other party was the kind that wouldn’t listen to reason.
Even though they saw a carriage stopped because of them, they didn’t intend to say anything about it. Instead, they continued to face each other with swords drawn, looking as if they wished the other party would die quickly.
They had no public decency at all!
Did they build this road?
Blocking the way like this, there was no possibility of passing!
Not only was Gu Qingheng’s carriage stopped, but another new carriage soon arrived behind him. However, the other party didn’t have Gu Qingheng’s angry mood. Instead, they avoided these martial artists, afraid of getting involved.
Undeniably, this was the normal reaction.
Because of Gu Yu’s influence, Gu Qingheng was not afraid of such matters at all, let alone turning around and leaving directly like other normal people.
In fact, he even felt an urge to go up and mediate…
“Young master, shall we take a detour and leave? If we continue to stay, I’m afraid the other party won’t finish immediately.”
As the coachman of the Gu family, under the leadership of Vice General Gu Qing, he was not as timid as other coachmen. He was just worried about disturbing Gu Qingheng’s enjoyment of the flowers.
This would make the young master unhappy, which would be a terrible thing for him, the coachman who was leading the way!
Although he knew that Gu Qingheng’s personality wouldn’t punish him, the coachman felt that he hadn’t fulfilled his duty, which made him feel extremely uncomfortable.
Nowadays, who in the capital didn’t know that working for the Gu family was more comfortable than working in the Imperial Palace.
In the Imperial Palace, one had to worry about being beheaded every day. Even if they were rewarded with valuable items, they had to have the life to spend them!
However, in the Gu Residence, the master had a good temper and was generous… Although mistakes would be severely punished, some minor mistakes were typically overlooked, making people feel as comfortable as if they were at home.
It was very difficult to find such a good master nowadays!
Therefore, as soon as there was a vacancy in the Gu family’s service, countless people would rack their brains to get into the mansion to work.
In this regard, the coachman was very fortunate that he had entered the Gu family a few years ago, otherwise, he probably wouldn’t be able to get in now!
Precisely because of this, he had to work harder and not fail his position as coachman.
“I’m not leaving. I, young master, must go through this road today. It’s just a few people fighting with knives and guns. I wasn’t even afraid when my sister chased me with a knife before, so why would I be afraid of these guys? Let the carriage continue forward, don’t be afraid!”
However, after hearing the coachman’s words, Gu Qingheng didn’t think so.
If it were in the past, when Gu Qingheng was still a delicate scholar, he naturally wouldn’t be so calm in front of these burly men whose arms were thicker than his waist.
But now…
Gu Qingheng looked down at his own strong arms and felt a wave of sorrow, thinking that his image of a delicate and handsome scholar was ruined!
With these muscles, he could be mistaken for a martial champion if he went out. At first glance, he didn’t look like a scholar at all, but rather like someone who practiced martial arts.
Fortunately, the Gu family members all had excellent looks. This allowed Gu Qingheng to remain sunny and handsome even with his bulkier physique, and he wouldn’t become ugly because of his muscles… However, in terms of personal preference, Gu Qingheng liked his previous delicate appearance.
Talented scholars and beautiful women, even on stage, there were slender handsome men and delicate women. There was no burly man acting as a talented scholar!!!
Thinking about these sad things, Gu Qingheng’s idea of dealing with the people blocking the road immediately dissipated. Now he just wanted to find a quiet place to lick his wounds.
His handsome male dream was shattered!
“Who are you people? We are handling business here. Please leave, unrelated persons!”
However, sometimes, things don’t go smoothly.
As Gu Qingheng’s carriage continued to move forward, someone quickly rushed over and directly blocked the carriage.
The tone was quite arrogant.
This made Gu Qingheng’s already unpleasant mood even more depressed, thinking that they were really forcing him to take action!
These bastards really deserved to be taught a lesson!
If they wanted to decide a winner, why didn’t they go to remote places like the mountains?
They insisted on dueling on a road where people passed by, as if they were loudly announcing for others to watch. It was too ostentatious!
“Wang Li, Zhou Da, you have harmed dozens of civilian women and killed hundreds of people. Today, for me to encounter you wicked and cruel people is heaven’s will, letting your lives stay here!”
However, just as Gu Qingheng was about to get out, a woman’s voice suddenly sounded.
Immediately after, a masked woman in white directly appeared in front of the carriage, causing Gu Qingheng to stop his action of getting out and quietly choose to observe the situation.
Since someone had already taken the initiative to deal with these people, it would be better for him not to go down and cause trouble.
He would wait!
However, looking at the woman’s figure, he felt it was somewhat familiar…
Why did he have this feeling?
“White Rakshasa, you venomous woman, compared to the people you killed, we are far behind! If you want to take our lives, it depends on whether you are worthy!”
After the masked woman appeared, the two groups of people who were fighting immediately separated. One side was particularly nervous, indicating that these were the bad guys mentioned by the masked woman.
Just from hearing the masked woman’s words, Gu Qingheng felt that this group of people had done all sorts of evil, and dying hundreds of times would still be a bargain for them!
However, it seemed that these people were still resisting, and he didn’t know if the masked woman in white could handle them alone.
Fine, he would wait and see. If the masked woman couldn’t win, then he would get out of the carriage to help.
If she could win… it would be dangerous if he rashly went down and might be accidentally injured.
“We are disciples under the Erhu Sect and have some grudges with the Simu Sect. Today, we are willing to join White Rakshasa…”
“No need, I am enough.”
Afterwards, when the other group voluntarily spoke and prepared to reinforce, the masked woman directly raised her hand to stop their words, and then with her other hand, she took out a small black box and aimed it at Wang Li and Zhou Da’s group.
The person who had just spoken didn’t say much either, but quickly retreated, not daring to stand in their original position.
In the martial world, who didn’t know the fierce reputation of White Rakshasa?
She was a being even more feared than the ghosts of the underworld. No one would want to be near the Rakshasa Woman, because they could be targeted at any moment for a fatal blow!
“Tang Sect’s Rainstorm Pear Blossom Needles, you can enjoy them in advance.”
After the other group retreated, the masked woman immediately activated the mechanism of the small box in her hand.
And when Gu Qingheng heard the name “Tang Sect,” his body couldn’t help but tremble. He suddenly thought that this masked woman in white couldn’t be his Sister Lian’er!
No, no, his Sister Lian’er couldn’t be this fierce!
