Chapter 38 – Are they using money to hit people these days?
After successfully ransacking Wen Guang Jiang, Gu Yu returned to sleep contentedly.
He woke up the next morning feeling refreshed and very happy.
Ultimately, it was all thanks to that box of silver notes.
This made Gu Yu even more eager to know if the benefits from the Tang Sect Leader would be more generous than Jiang Wen Guang’s.
As for Jiang Wen Guang’s claim that the sect leader didn’t have much money, Gu Yu didn’t believe it at all. In those novels and TV shows he had watched, were the sect leaders of any sect not rolling in wealth? Encountering a poor sect leader was as rare as winning five million in a lottery.
Even if he unfortunately encountered one, weren’t the Tang Sect’s unique hidden weapons and mechanisms right there?
Then, hehehe…
“Brother-in-law, can you eat properly! Just as I was about to pick up a dish, I saw you smiling so cunningly. Who are you planning to scheme against again?”
“Go away, go away. What do you mean by a cunning smile? With my handsome and elegant appearance, how could I possibly show that kind of expression?”
“If you don’t believe me, you can ask my sister… Never mind, you two are a couple, and you’ll definitely team up to bully me in the end.”
While eating breakfast, Gu Qingheng looked at Gu Yu sitting opposite him, smiling with ill intentions. He couldn’t help but sigh, thinking that if it were anyone else besides his brother-in-law, he would definitely be the perfect template for a villain!
And when Gu Qingheng spoke, Gu Yu, after recovering his senses and hearing these words, immediately took offense.
How could he, such an upright person, be like a villain!
His younger brother-in-law was slandering him!
“Hmph, you’re the one who’s in the wrong! Mengyao, do I look cunning when I smile?”
“No, Yu, you’re the most handsome.”
“Hehehe, wife, you’re the most beautiful too.”
“…”
As expected, upon seeing them showing affection again, Gu Qingheng twitched the corners of his mouth speechlessly, then lowered his head to quickly eat the food in his bowl, thinking that his sister and brother-in-law were getting more and more clingy.
This was still a public place! Being so affectionate, they should at least consider others!
However, ever since Gu Mengyao went to the battlefield, her personality had become much bolder than before.
Normally, at such times, Gu Mengyao would blush, and then tell Gu Yu that he couldn’t make such bold moves in front of so many people.
But now, she didn’t take it seriously, acting as if Gu Yu was the only one in her eyes, and not caring what others thought.
This wasn’t because Gu Mengyao had become bolder, but after repeatedly fighting on the battlefield, where she could lose her life at any moment, Gu Mengyao had come to terms with things.
Seize the day when life is good, and don’t let the golden goblet be empty.
She and her husband were sweet, what did it have to do with others!
Of course, some outrageous behavior was still not allowed. For example, when Gu Yu pressed his advantage and wanted a kiss, Gu Mengyao directly picked up a bamboo shoot with her chopsticks and sent it over, successfully shutting Gu Yu up.
Afterward, looking at Gu Mengyao’s smiling face, Gu Yu couldn’t say anything more and could only eat the food in his mouth, the corners of his mouth involuntarily turning upwards.
When Gu Qingheng, who had just looked up, saw this, he felt that he couldn’t eat this breakfast anymore!
He was bullying a single person!
“Miss, Master, there is someone asking to see you outside. He claims to be from the Tang Sect and is here on the sect leader’s orders to visit.”
“Let him in!”
While Gu Yu and the others were eating breakfast, Gu Da suddenly walked in from outside and stopped at Gu Yu’s table to report that someone was visiting. Gu Yu raised his eyebrows upon hearing this and immediately asked Gu Da to welcome the person in.
Even though Gu Yu’s group was staying at the inn, the person sent by the Tang Sect still chose to inform them and wait for Gu Yu’s consent before entering, clearly showing a friendly attitude.
And when the person came in, Gu Yu couldn’t help but laugh. It turned out to be an acquaintance.
It was Mi Shu, who had suddenly appeared at night while they were traveling.
That is, the unlucky guy who was kicked in the butt by Little Black.
“Heh heh, Brother Gu, we meet again! I told you before that it would be great if you came with me, so you wouldn’t have to come and invite me again now.”
“It’s you, huh? Does your butt still hurt?”
“…”
The other party was very familiar with him. With no threat from the black bear, Mi Shu stood in the inn lobby as if he were at leisure, not showing any of the embarrassment from that night.
However, upon hearing Gu Yu’s words, Mi Shu had a look of embarrassment on his face, appearing unwilling to recall his embarrassing past. Clearly, that kick from Little Black was unforgettable.
After Mi Shu recalled that painful night, he became much more honest.
“Brother Gu, I am here on the sect leader’s orders to escort you to the Tang Sect. You can leave after a short stay.”
“I’m afraid it’s not just a few of us, right!”
“This… there are indeed quite a few people. I hope you can bear with us.”
It seemed that Mi Shu wanted to trick Gu Yu into going first. Little did he know that Gu Yu had already guessed it. He didn’t fall for it at this time and instead said with a half-smile, making Mi Shu realize that he couldn’t play tricks with Gu Yu.
Gu Yu wasn’t as harmless as he looked. Instead, the glittering eyes at this moment made Mi Shu’s heart skip a beat, thinking that the sect leader had probably kicked a steel plate this time.
“Forget it, there’s no point in telling you all this. I’ll go see your sect leader! Lead the way. I’ve worked hard for almost a month, all for this moment.”
However, Gu Yu didn’t make things difficult for Mi Shu. Seeing his distressed look, Gu Yu immediately said something that made Mi Shu breathe a sigh of relief, thinking that it was fortunate Gu Yu wasn’t a unreasonable person, otherwise he would have been unlucky today.
Afterward, Mi Shu didn’t delay. After Gu Yu and his group put down their bowls and chopsticks, they got into the carriage and quickly drove towards the Tang Sect.
On the way, Mi Shu kept trying to get close to Gu Yu, but Gu Yu deflected his advances with great skill, always steering the conversation back to the starting point. Mi Shu didn’t get much information and was instead asked a lot about the Tang Sect by Gu Yu.
Just as Mi Shu was feeling annoyed, the carriage suddenly stopped.
Then, they heard the sound of countless arrows flying, and both Gu Yu and Mi Shu, sitting in the carriage, were stunned. They didn’t expect… assassins to appear at this time.
They were already in Lianzhou, and it was on the street. Jiang Wen Guang still dared to make a move; he was truly desperate.
“Yu, are you okay!”
“I’m fine.”
Just then, the sound of wood breaking was heard. Gu Mengyao directly dismantled the carriage into two halves from the outside and immediately reached out to pull Gu Yu out of the carriage.
Then, Mi Shu, who saw this, jumped down with his mouth agape, followed by looking at Gu Mengyao with shocked eyes. He clearly couldn’t guess how a person could have such great strength!
Even in the Tang Sect, Mi Shu had never seen anyone as powerful as Gu Mengyao… However, it was rumored that the sect leader’s internal energy was very powerful, and he could smash rocks with one palm, but he had never made a move in front of others, so his true abilities were unknown.
As Mi Shu was thinking about these things, he quickly followed Gu Mengyao and Gu Yu forward, wanting to get away from the carriage.
Just a dozen steps away from the carriage, countless arrows shot toward the carriage, and some arrows even penetrated the wooden walls of the carriage, making Gu Yu involuntarily shrink his neck, thinking that these arrows were not to be underestimated!
The surrounding civilians who couldn’t dodge in time were innocently killed by the arrows.
“Gu Da, get my bow!”
“Yes.”
After Gu Mengyao took Gu Yu to a safe place, she spoke to Gu Da, who had appeared from nowhere, and then took the bow and arrows handed over by Gu Da. She turned her head to look at Gu Yu, preparing to tell him to stay put.
“Yu, swords and sabers have no eyes. It’s safer for you to stay here.”
“Okay, I know. Mengyao, you be careful too.”
Seeing that Gu Yu did not protest, Gu Mengyao smiled at him slightly, then quickly rushed out. After moving a certain distance forward, she found a shelter and hid.
Then, while aiming at the enemies, Gu Mengyao directly drew her bow and shot arrow after arrow with great precision into their foreheads, quickly reaping the lives of the enemy.
When Gu Yu saw how capable his little wife was, he felt very proud, thinking that Gu Yu’s woman was indeed different, a heroic woman who came with her own BGM!
This cool sexiness was simply irresistible!
“Gu… Brother Gu, is this your wife???”
“Yes, how is it? Isn’t she handsome?”
“Handsome! But are you not afraid of such a powerful woman beating you?”
“Why would my wife beat me? Hmph, let alone beating me, she pampers me all the time, which also makes me very helpless!”
Upon hearing Mi Shu’s question, Gu Yu couldn’t help but smile proudly.
Then, what came out of his mouth made Mi Shu directly raise his thumb, indicating that Gu Yu was truly amazing!
He could actually handle such a fierce wife; he was truly formidable!
After Gu Mengyao joined the battlefield, the situation immediately became one-sided. When Gu Mengyao shot the last arrow, she directly threw the bow aside, then drew her long saber from its sheath and charged toward the assassins.
Let’s not mention the bloody process. After Gu Mengyao killed the last assassin, the incident was considered over.
When Gu Mengyao swung her long saber towards the ground, the bloodstains on the blade scattered on the ground, making the guards beside her feel even more fearful.
On their journey, Gu Mengyao rarely made a move, and she always used her spear to pierce the enemy through and through, unlike her long saber, which was so ferocious.
“Who dares to commit evil here? Surrender quickly. Those who resist will be killed without mercy!”
Just as all the assassins were dealt with, a group of government soldiers appeared very ‘timely.’ They then drew their gleaming sabers and pointed them at Gu Mengyao and her guards, clearly intending to arrest them all.
“It was I, your grandfather, who was causing trouble here. What about it? Do you want to arrest me?”
When the officer leading the soldiers gave the order to arrest people, his head suddenly hurt. When he subconsciously reached out to grab the weapon, he found that it was a golden bar.
Are they using money to hit people these days?
…
Sob sob, it’s so uncomfortable to have a cold in the summer! My head is spinning.
