Chapter 71 The Wife Disguised as a Woman

Although under Gu Xingzhai's death stare, Xiao Liu didn't dare to call out that "Master".

But he was still opened to a new world by Lin Xiaodong. He was a little dazed when he sat by the bonfire at night and nibbled birds. His eyes unconsciously moved back and forth between Gu Xingzhai and Lin Xiaodong, who were sitting side by side.

"So, you ran out in a fit of rage after arguing with a few senior brothers?" After hearing about Xiao Liu's experience, Lin Xiaodong couldn't help laughing, "It turned out that it came out too quickly and forgot to bring it around, I was so hungry that I could not help but laugh. To hunt birds in the wilderness?"

Xiao Liu didn't speak, but his earlobes were quietly red.

He secretly glanced at Lin Xiaodong, thinking that although the young man is a demon, he looks really good.

No wonder when the master took them to the kiln to catch the monsters, he didn't turn his eyes away, saying that these were all vulgar fans, and they were not one of the most powerful monsters he had ever seen. At that time, Xiao Liu thought that Master had too high a vision, but now it seems that it is true.

Lin Xiaodong wanted to ask again, but Gu Xingzhai had already handed the baked wings to him.

"Eat it while it's hot." The man said lightly.

There was still a trace of anger in his brows, probably because he suddenly heard the news of his master's death, and he didn't recover all of a sudden. Lin Xiaodong took the bamboo stick in his hand and asked, "Then let's go to the suburbs of Beijing next?"

"Go," Gu Xingzhai said in a hoarse voice under Xiao Liu's uneasy gaze, "Before I left, Master left all the juniors to me to take care of. Now that he has passed away, as a senior, I have to take this responsibility. Come."

"And you," he turned to look at Xiao Liu, who was sitting opposite, with a stern expression, "Running out without permission, and running so far alone, your senior brothers must have gone crazy. Remember to apologize to me, do you hear me?"

Xiao Liu lowered his head and said shyly, "Yes, Senior Brother Gu."

In fact, Lin Xiaodong really liked Xiao Liu's cleverness, but because he was injured just now, Gu Xingzhai ordered him to go back to the carriage to rest not long after he finished eating.

With a flat mouth, the young man snorted a little unhappily, then bent down and got into the carriage.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Liu couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Senior Brother Gu, how did you meet?"

Gu Xingzhai's dagger sharpening stopped.

He thought for a while, and the corners of his lips rose unconsciously: "I met him in my hometown. Three years ago, he was hunted and fled to the town. It was my father who took him in."

"Three years ago?" Xiaoliu is very sensitive to this time, "Isn't that the day when the dog eunuch called all the demon slayers to Beijing? But all the famous slayers have come to the capital, where else? Take your time to hunt down a little monster?"

Lin Xiaodong's mana is not strong, and Xiaoliu can feel it as soon as he meets him.

The succubus was not a monster known for its ferocity. If it wasn't for the young man with a handsome face that didn't look like a mortal, he wouldn't be able to judge whether the other party was a human or a demon for a while.

Hearing him say this, Gu Xingzhai's heart also flashed a trace of doubt: "Indeed. But there are other possibilities. For example, the person chasing Xiaodong is a wild Taoist priest who has no apprenticeship, or..."

"Or, that person is simply a lackey raised by the imperial court!" Xiao Liu said bitterly.

In the past, the demon slayer took pride in doing things for the official family; but in today's world, especially when the three years of turmoil have just subsided, if there are still demon slayers who dare to call themselves like this, it will be called and beaten by everyone. of.

"Senior Brother Gu, you have to be careful," Xiaoliu reminded, "If that person is really doing things for the imperial court, he will definitely report what happened in Qingxie Town to the emperor. At that time, those dog officials will seek longevity. It's not surprising that anything can be done."

Gu Xingzhai clenched the dagger in his hand: "...I know."

He has never asked Lin Xiaodong about what happened before he came to Qingxie Town. Now it seems that it is necessary to find out.

The next day, when Lin Xiaodong yawned and heard the man's words, he couldn't help but be taken aback: "Huh? The man who chased me three years ago?"

How could he know who the hunter was, and it was not written in the information, so he could only vaguely deal with it: "It should be someone from the government, but it was too dark at that time, and I was injured and was running away, so I didn't see them clearly. looks."

Hearing this, Gu Xingzhai's expression became even more solemn.

"From now on, whenever you go out, remember to bring your bamboo hat with you." He instructed worriedly, and personally helped Lin Xiaodong take off the white veil that was used to cover the hat, "When you reach the suburbs of Beijing, don't want one. People act casually, and if something happens, ask me or other junior brothers to follow along, and I will greet them well."

The system has the opposite view on this: "If this goes on like this, your remaining two good person cards will be lost. Gu Xingzhai has not made any movement here, and the remaining key character of the plot whose identity is currently unknown will not be available. Meeting, if you stay in one world for too long, it will affect the mission of the next world."

Lin Xiaodong didn't care about the points, but he was curious about what kind of impact it would have.

"Like?"

"There have been cases where the host fell in love with the key characters in the plot, so he deliberately delayed the progress of the task, and the settlement could not be completed," the system said, "Although a lot of energy was spent, the key is that he has not violated any regulations, so the headquarters has no way to do it. Punish him according to the rules."

"What about later?" Lin Xiaodong thought to himself, isn't that stupid, even if the delay can be delayed for a few years, everyone will die anyway.

"Later?" The system's voice paused, "Then he didn't know why, but suddenly one day he committed suicide/killed himself. His soul was automatically received by the headquarters, but the mission was judged to be incomplete, so the headquarters punished him accordingly. At the beginning, this incident was a big deal, so later the headquarters revised the rules. If the task is not completed after a certain period of time, the memory of the host in this world will be cleared before entering the next world to ensure that the same will not happen again in the future. Case."

Lin Xiaodong remembered the series of system prompts from the tablet every time he left the world, and finally understood, for what purpose the memory clearing function that felt that it had never really been activated was reserved.

"But I think," he said slowly, "this mission should be over soon."

"why?"

"I don't know other people, and I know very little about this era," Lin Xiaodong looked at Gu Xingzhai who was sitting in front of the car, and his eyes stayed on the man's grim side face for a few seconds, "But I know him. Master died in vain, do you think, whether it is Gu Xi from the previous world, or Gu Xingzhai from this world, are they the ones who can bear this kind of breath?"

"But if he can't bear it," the system raised his voice a little, "Is it possible that he is still going to learn from Jing Ke to assassinate the King of Qin?"

"I'm not sure," Lin Xiaodong said. "The key is to see how much this incident has stimulated him."

Obviously, the news of Master's death has ignited a man's inner anger, like a dynamite/drug barrel ready to go. It only needs a reason, a small spark, to completely subvert his apparent maintenance. calm.

They hurried for two days, and finally came to the outskirts of the capital in the evening of the second day.

Lin Xiaodong's buttocks were nearly split into eight petals in the carriage, and he had a new understanding of Xiaoliu's childishness - even in this era, a fourteen-year-old boy ran away from home in a fit of anger. Thousands of miles away, it is also a big event that is enough to shock people's attention.

The most coincidental thing is that the world is so big, and there are four or five roads to the north of Qingxie Town. He actually happened to bump into his senior brother in the wilderness... I have to say, this luck really people admire.

When queuing up to enter the city, Lin Xiaodong saw with sharp eyes that there was actually a portrait of himself on the city wall.

It not only showed his appearance when he was dressed as a woman, but also the appearance of him wearing a cloud-blue gown that night. Although both of them are very impressive... It is hard to describe, but the name is not wrong.

Next to the portrait, there is also a vertical row of dragons and phoenixes written in fonts: "Fifty gold reward".

"Fifty gold!" "Fifty gold?"

Lin Xiaodong and Xiaoliu gasped at the same time, but for different reasons.

Lin Xiaodong was eager to move because he was greedy for so much money, while Xiao Liu thought of his previous worries, exchanged a solemn look with Gu Xingzhai, and jumped out of the car to ask them what was going on.

"No," Gu Xingzhai grabbed him, "it's a critical period, do you see the man in blue standing over the city gate? His posture and eyes show that he is a trainer, and the surrounding The soldiers guarding the city are very respectful towards him. It is estimated that the imperial court specially sent him to check the pass. If you ask now, it will attract their attention."

Xiao Liu looked at the team that was getting closer and said anxiously: "Then what should we do? It's coming to us soon!"

Looking at Gu Xingzhai and Lin Xiaodong's motionless appearance, he was so anxious that sweat broke out on his forehead.

"Don't panic," Lin Xiaodong comforted him, "wait for me for a minute."

He got into the compartment and used [One-Click Dress Up] to change his outfit and appearance. Xiao Liu outside didn't know what he was messing with, and finally thought to himself: Well, Senior Brother Gu is here anyway, so he can escape with Lin Xiaodong. If there is a fight, he will be their queen.

"Don't think blindly," Gu Xingzhai tapped him on the head and scolded lightly, "Your sister-in-law is not a delicate flower who can't stand the wind and rain, don't think of him too simply."

It's not that only a strong force is a real strong man, the man thought silently, thinking that at the beginning, even he almost got Lin Xiaodong's words.

But Xiaoliu deserves to be the most ingenious among their brothers and sisters. His focus is actually: "Senior brother, why is it sister-in-law? What is the relationship between you two?"

Hearing what his senior brother said, Xiao Liu also felt relieved and began to tease him with ease.

Seeing the teasing smile on this stinky boy's face, Gu Xingzhai pulled the corners of his mouth expressionlessly and kicked him off the carriage-

"Ouch! Master, save me!"

Xiaoliu shouted loudly, and at this time the carriage also moved to the position of the city gate. The guards of the city glared at him impatiently: "What's the noise! ​​Brat, is this a place for you to make trouble?"

He angrily climbed into the carriage. At this time, Gu Xingzhai, who was tall and big, also attracted the attention of the man in blue. He came over and asked, "Who's in the carriage over there?"

"Yes..." Xiao Liu had never seen the world before, and stuttered nervously for a while, which made the man in blue's eyes even sharper.

"Get off!"

He rudely pushed Xiao Liu away, Gu Xingzhai's eyes narrowed, and he grabbed the man in blue by the wrist. The man in blue slammed with force, but was shocked to find that the man's five fingers didn't move at all. The surrounding officials saw the situation. No, they all held the swords in their hands and slowly surrounded them.

The atmosphere was tense.

But at this moment, a faint fragrant wind floated out from the carriage of the carriage, which shocked everyone around.

A slender and slender hand slowly lifted the curtain of the car under the unblinking gaze of everyone, revealing a pale and sad face that seemed ill, but could not hide the girl's natural beauty. The icy muscles and jade bones seemed transparent in the sunlight, and even the man in blue, who was just fierce and vicious, straightened his eyes.

"Xiang Gong, what's going on?" Lin Xiaodong said, and coughed a few times while covering his lips deliberately. The weak Liu Fufeng made Xiao Liu beside him look stupid.

Gu Xingzhai heard his "Xianggong", although he knew that Lin Xiaodong was only trying to disguise his identity, he still had a feeling of being touched by a feather across his heart. He calmed down, grabbed Lin Xiaodong's hand in the envious eyes of the guards and soldiers, and said with relief: "Don't worry, it's just a routine inspection by the official, and it will be fine soon."

"Is that so," Lin Xiaodong suddenly realized, turned around and smiled at those people, nodding and said, "Then I'll ask the officials to make it easier."

"It's easy to talk about." With this smile, he almost fascinated a bunch of big men, and immediately agreed.

With Lin Xiaodong's help, the three of them entered the capital very smoothly. But until he walked two streets away, Xiao Liu still couldn't react, and he couldn't help but turn his head frequently, wanting to take another look at that beautiful "Lin Daiyu".

Gu Xingzhai slapped him on the back of the head, and said coldly, "Remember to watch the road when driving, don't be distracted!"

Xiao Liu covered his head and said aggrievedly: "Mingming, you are also watching it yourself... I am too jealous, be careful that my sister will not be able to stand you in the future."

"Qi Xiaoliu!"

Lin Xiaodong couldn't help but stopped Gu Xingzhai, and he didn't even care about the title of "mistress": "Okay, what are you mad at with a child." What's more, he was right.

Of course, since Gu Xingzhai's old vinegar jar is not only fragrant, but also saves face, he still didn't say this last sentence in front of Xiao Liu.

"However," Xiao Liu said curiously, and changed his name very obediently, "Young Master Lin, how did you do it? It's the first time I've seen a succubus that can change its appearance at will."

"You haven't seen it, it doesn't mean you haven't." Lin Xiaodong coughed dryly and asked another topic, "By the way, isn't your division in the suburbs of Beijing? Why do you have to make a special trip to the city?"

"It's convenient to inquire about news in the city, and even though the master is gone, his old man still has some acquaintances in the capital." Gu Xingzhai said solemnly, "I want to ask them what happened during my absence. What's up."

They landed at the inn and sold the carriage to a merchant. Gu Xingzhai wrote a letter to several other juniors, explaining their current situation and asking them not to worry about Xiaoliu's safety. It's good to meet in the capital together to discuss what to do next.

Fortunately, within a few days, the juniors and brothers in the suburbs of Beijing replied to him.

The letter said that Senior Brother Gu should take care of Xiao Liu first, and they will arrive in a few days.

"Young Master Lin," Xiao Liu sneaked up to Lin Xiaodong to remind him after he knew about it, "Because of Master's affairs, my senior brothers are very prejudiced against Yaomei, although Senior Brother Gu protects him. you, but you better be careful."

Lin Xiaodong looked at his trembling legs in fear, and couldn't help but said, "I think you should be the one who should be careful? Are your senior brothers more fierce than Gu Xingzhai?"

"It's more than fierce!" Xiao Liu, who was pierced by his heart, said with a sad face, "They are simply devils! When Master was still there, whenever I was not serious in my practice, they would use sticks to slap my ass. Blue one and one purple one! Also, when Senior Brother Gu hits them, he is more ruthless, but Senior Brother Gu has never hit me!"

"Is that so..." Lin Xiaodong thought thoughtfully.

That night, lying on the bed of the inn, Gu Xingzhai was closing his eyes and preparing to fall asleep when he suddenly heard someone whispering: "I heard that your junior brothers were beaten up by you since childhood?"

Gu Xingzhai's eyelids trembled, and he opened his eyes helplessly: "Xiao Liu sued you?"

Lin Xiaodong snorted.

The young man lay on his side beside him, and said something inexplicably: "It seems that you do have a hobby of spanking."

"What?" Gu Xingzhai had never felt so wronged, "When did I spank you?"

"I dreamed," Lin Xiaodong said confidently, "you hit me in the last life, and you pressed me on your leg, it hurts."

Gu Xingzhai: "..."

He never thought that one day he would be accused of an unwarranted crime because of a nightmare.

"That must be because you didn't listen to me." The dead of night was a good time to talk about private topics. Gu Xingzhai simply gave up and continued Lin Xiaodong's words, "Otherwise, how could I have the heart to beat you? Too much, it's not a big deal to hit twice..." The man's voice became lower and lower.

"What did you say!?"

Lin Xiaodong's eyes widened, and he turned over and sat up in anger: "Gu, can you say it again?"

The old god Gu Xingzhai was lying there on the ground, and said cheekily: "You call me husband again, and I'll say it."

"You want your face or not!"

"don't want."

Just as Lin Xiaodong shouted "Xiang Gong" at the gate of the city that day, Gu Xingzhai thought that he could remember it for a lifetime.

Half an hour later, Xiao Liu, who was snoring loudly in the room, was awakened by the movement from the next door. He sat up abruptly, listened for a while, and found that the sound was like a human slap slapped on something, mixed with the low whimper of the young man, something like "don't hit", "slow down", etc. of.

Xiao Liu thought in a panic, could it be that Senior Brother Gu's doting on Young Master Lin was just a disguise on the surface, but in fact he was just greedy for the succubus's face, but he disciplined him very strictly in private?

Hearing the young man cry so badly, it even gave people a feeling of being out of breath, and Xiao Liu couldn't bear it.

He thought about what the master had taught them back then, regardless of his heart, and decided that even if he made Senior Brother Gu angry, he would bravely stand up and say a word for Lin Xiaodong.

He gently got out of bed and walked to the closed door next door, feeling the beating heart in his heart, and clenched his fists fiercely--

Come on, Little Six, you can do it!

It's up to you to save Young Master Lin from the fire and water!
