The happy life of a prodigal

The dancers dancing in the fence...

Assassins with blades in the moonlight...

The 'walking corpse' who is calm in the face of torture...

It's still the thorny rose who excels in lightness kungfu and is good at the way of poisonous Gu.

Therefore, when facing Liu Qing, Fang Xiu always felt that he lacked a sufficient sense of security.

Only in front of Liu Qing, there was never a lack of guards by his side.

However, today, in a strange foreign land, under the bright moonlight, Fang Xiu was alone, facing Liu Qing.

"Is it King Ning?"

Fang Xiu asked again.

He said this answer himself before, but after thinking about it, he felt that there were many unreasonable things.

He knew exactly what kind of person King Ning was.

It can be said that he is a loser, except that he is a little older than Kang Wang, he is useless, he can do everything, and he is the No.1 model for eating.

How could such a person come up with such a method without someone pointing him out?

Of course, this is only second, the most important thing is that the technique of poisonous Gu is not a multiplication formula, two seven one fourteen, three seven twenty one, which can be memorized by memorization and learned by just looking at it.

Fang Xiu once asked Liu Qing about the secret method of the Poison Gu technique out of curiosity, but he gave up completely after reading a few pages.

Let's not talk about raising Gu, planting Gu, just choosing the right insects to use as Gu insects, you may not be able to learn it in a year or two.

The technique of planting Gu is extremely complicated, and it is by no means something that can be learned in just a few days.

"Yes......"

Liu Qing said first, then paused, and said again: "Not really."

When Fang Xiu heard these contradictory words, a thoughtful expression appeared on his face.

Immediately afterwards, he seemed to think of something, looked at Liu Qing in surprise, and said, "Is that woman?"

There is no doubt that what Fang Xiu was talking about was the mysterious woman who claimed to be the saint of the Poison Gu Sect who had planted Gu worms for King Kang!

"is her......"

Liu Qing's answer was very short, but it shocked Fang Xiu.

After receiving this news, many confusions in the past have been solved.

"That woman used Gu to control King Ning, and then took advantage of King Ning's ability to enter and leave the palace, and transferred the Gu to the emperor, isn't that right?"

"Gu art is not as easy as you think, it's just that she disguised herself as King Ning."

Liu Qing looked at Fang Xiu and said.

After Fang Xiu heard this, he looked at Liu Qing, and his heart suddenly tightened.

At this moment, he hoped that King Ning was behind all of this.

After all, King Ning's purpose is very simple, he just wants to ascend the throne, there are not so many twists and turns.

As long as this goal is achieved, he will be very cautious in everything he does, especially when dealing with the emperor.

Regicide, patricide...

The two crimes that were cast aside by the whole world and written into the history books will definitely be infamous for thousands of years, King Ning will never easily bear them.

On this basis, the safety of the old emperor was guaranteed.

But......

The so-called saint of the Poison Gu Sect is different. So far, even if they helped King Kang take out the Gu insects, no one knows what the name of that woman is, and what is the purpose of doing everything...

"What is her purpose in doing this?"

Fang Xiu looked at Liu Qing and asked impatiently.

Know thyself, ever-victorious.

Only by knowing the opponent's purpose can we better target it.

Liu Qing, who has been always answering questions from just now, shook her head slightly when she heard this question.

"Prefer not to say?"

Fang Xiu knew that Liu Qing was also a member of the Poison Gu Sect, and also a figure at the level of a 'Saint', even though she had been unwilling to admit it.

"do not know."

Liu Qing's answer was as concise and clear as ever: "I have been away from the Poison Gu Sect for a long time, when I was still there, they just wanted to kill the emperor and rebuild the Poison Gu Sect.

What are they going to do now, you can only ask them..."

Chapter 5: No worries about food and clothing is the greatest happiness

When Fang Xiu heard this, a thoughtful expression appeared on his face.

After a while, he raised his eyes, looked at Liu Qing, and asked, "Why did you want to see the emperor in the first place?

What did the emperor tell you? "

When Liu Qing heard this question, she fell silent for the first time, without any response.

Seeing this, Fang Xiu knew that she didn't want to answer.

So, he waved his hand and said: "It's very late, go back and rest, these two days, you should take a good rest and heal your injury first.

In a few days, come back to Kyoto City with me. "

After finishing speaking, he turned and walked towards the inn.

Liu Qing stayed where she was, looked at Fang Xiu's back, paused for a moment, and followed.

Today's inn has become the foothold of Fang Xiu and his group in Linze Mansion, there are no other outsiders except the innkeeper and servants.

When I woke up the next day, as usual, Fang Ru must be the first to appear at the dinner table.

She is also a foodie, but this girl's attitude towards food is completely opposite to that of Zhao Yan.

She is used to being pampered. Although Zhao Yan likes to eat, she only eats the food she likes. When she meets something she doesn't like, she puts it aside without even looking at it.

Fang Ru is different, she should be used to living a hard life, and once lived without enough food.

Therefore, for food, there is an indescribable awe, which is expressed on the table.

Even if there is half of the cold steamed bun left, even if there is no food, she will definitely eat it.

I have known her for four days, and in Fang Xiu's impression, she never seems to stop eating.

Even when she was going to the granary, she put a handful of roasted peanuts in her pocket, and would eat one from time to time.

"Brother, you're awake..."

Just as Fang Xiu walked down the stairs, Fang Ru found him, looked at him with a smile on his face.

Seeing this scene, Fang Xiu was inexplicably touched.

Although it was only a short period of four days, Fang Ru seemed to have known herself for a long time, and she didn't feel restrained at all when she called 'Brother'.

Even if you have experienced a lot of sophistication and put it on, it can always make people feel a little bit of comfort.

This time, Fang Xiu didn't talk about her again, but nodded, walked to her side, and asked, "Where are the others..."

"Miss Zhao is still resting in the house. Miss Liu went out just now. When I asked her what she was doing, she ignored me. Miss Xiu'er...she should still be sleeping."

Fang Xiu nodded after hearing this, feeling a little distressed.

When I was in Fangfu, Xiu'er was always the first to wake up every morning.

But now it was almost noon, and she was still sleeping.

It can be seen how many hardships they have experienced on the road from the capital to Linze Mansion.

Fang Xiu sighed, looked at Fang Ru beside him, thought for a while, and said: "In two days, I will return to the capital..."

Fang Ru was still gnawing on the fire, but when she heard this sentence, her hands stopped moving.

After spending so long in the market, Fang Ru can be said to be the most knowledgeable in the world among them.

With just one sentence, Fang Xiu's meaning can be heard.

The difference between 'I' and 'we' is just one word, but the meaning is thousands of miles apart.

She put down the fire in her hand, raised her eyes, looked at Fang Xiu, didn't make a fuss, didn't say anything, just asked: "Is it too dangerous for you to go back to the capital now?

Yesterday, I heard Miss Xiu'er say that the capital is full of soldiers now, as well as those policemen, and those who are in the department, they are all arresting people, especially those who have something to do with Fangfu. "

When Fang Xiu heard this, he glanced at her, and could tell that the concern in her eyes was not faked.

"That's why I'm going back."

He said so.

Fang Ru nodded first, then said nothing, picked up the fire, and continued to chew.

It's just that he gnawed halfway, but put it down again.

She looked at Fang Xiu, her expression changed a little, as if she had returned to the moment when they first met, that little pepper who was tougher on the outside and tougher on the inside.

"I really don't understand you guys. Those generals and ministers can't handle such a big matter as saving the emperor. Why do you guys have to take care of it.

Now that you have said so well and prepared so carefully, it is not certain what will happen when you arrive in the capital, it is better to wait..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Fang Xiu: "If I was imprisoned in the government office, would you try to rescue me?"

Fang Xiu looked at Fang Ru and asked.

Fang Ru didn't expect him to ask such a question, she was startled for a while, and then said casually: "It depends on the situation, if there are too many people guarding you, then I definitely won't.

Otherwise, don't you treat yourself as a meat bun and give it to the dog?

If there were fewer guards, maybe they would try it out. If they couldn’t be rescued, they could escape by themselves. There was no loss. If they were rescued, it would be equivalent to getting a long-term gold medal free from meals, and they would not have to worry about eating and drinking in the future... .”

When Fang Xiu heard this, he couldn't help laughing, and shook his head, not knowing what to say.

However, this kind of Fang Ru is like the Fang Ru in his own impression, and after knowing that he is Fang Xiu, Fang Ru seems to have put on a mask for himself.

"You told me this because you want to stop eating at our Fang's family in the future?"

Fang Xiu looked at Fang Ru, smiled, and said slightly teasingly.

Fang Ru curled her lips and said, "If you die in the capital, it's not certain whether the Fang family will survive in the future!

When the time comes, I will find my adoptive father by myself and tell him that the last thing you said before you died was never to avenge him.

That way, I can spend a little more time with my adoptive father. "

When Fang Xiu heard this, he really wanted to laugh, but he couldn't.

Because he knew that what Fang Ru said was not wrong, he knew nothing about the situation in the capital, and the only information he got was from Liu Qing.

As for whether Liu Qing is worthy of trust or not, it is still unknown until now.

If he returned to the capital and found that all this was actually a trap set by King Ning, then everything would be meaningless.

He shook his head, stopped thinking about these things, but looked at Fang Ru, and said, "People live in this world not only for the sake of food and clothing..."

Before he finished speaking, Fang Ru said angrily: "That's because you were born with no worries about food and clothing, unlike me, who are both 12 years old now, and the days when you have had enough to eat are less than [-] years old. one year.

I don't think as much as you big shots, I just want to have enough food every day, wear cotton clothes in winter, and have a place to rest in summer..."

Fang Xiu who said these words was speechless.

He was a little dazed, he didn't know when, he would become the Jin Hui Emperor who didn't eat minced meat.

He sighed, and said: "You are right... having no worries about food and clothing is the greatest kind of happiness in itself."

It's just...in the capital, in this temple, how many people don't understand this truth.

Chapter 561 I want to follow you!

In a blink of an eye, time flies.

Before I knew it, it was already two days later.
