The Great Hero [Comprehensive Martial Arts]

The conversation has come to an end.

After making sure that no other useful information would be missed, Chu Xiao, who was crouching above the study, quietly got up and prepared to evacuate.

But at this moment, an extremely weak "worm cry" sounded suddenly, following the rhythm of three short and one long, repeated three times in succession.

After receiving the signal, Chu Xiao immediately lay down again.

Below, two figures came out of the study one by one. The one walking in front should be Prince Nan. Judging by his pace, he probably has a little foundation in martial arts, but he is not very good at it; Ordinary people with martial arts.

Due to the angle, Chu Xiao, who could only see the backs of the two, couldn't help feeling puzzled...these two seem to have nothing special about them, why did Wu Gui issue a message that would only be used in the most urgent situation? What about the signal?

Chu Xiao's doubts did not last long, because after a while, the answer was clearly in front of his eyes.

"It's getting dark, sir, if you don't want to stay overnight in the mansion tonight." When he walked to the center of the courtyard, Prince Nan, who had been turning his back to Chu Xiao, finally turned around, revealing his true face.

Chu Xiao: Σ(°△°|||)︴

who I am?where am iWhat did I see?

For a moment, Chu Xiao was completely blindsided. He was so dazed that he thought he was in the Forbidden City, and he almost blurted out "Brother Huang"—the face of the son of Prince Nan, who looked exactly like Emperor Qing exactly the same!

"...Master, master, you're back to your senses."

Wu Gui had already expected how Chu Xiao would react, so after Prince Nan Wang left the courtyard, he immediately sent a voice transmission to Chu Xiao: "Now is not the time to be dazed, what should I do next, you have to have someone Charter."

When Chu Xiao came back to his senses, his face instantly became extremely ugly.

charter?Heh, a prince's son who looks exactly like Emperor Qing and intends to rebel...

"Let's go, let's retreat first." Chu Xiao took a deep breath, suppressed the raging killing intent in his heart, and said through gritted teeth: "Immediately pass this news back to the capital, and when Brother Huang has a decision, I will definitely I want to kill Nan Wang and his son with my own hands."

He originally thought that Nan Wang's plan to rebel was only a matter of the past two years, but now it seems that this old man has been plotting this matter from the very beginning.

The poor late emperor still thought about that bit of brotherhood when he was alive!

Thinking of the late emperor who died of illness early due to being poisoned by the king of Nan, and thinking of the fact that before his death, the emperor did not forget to tell himself not to take revenge on the king of Nan because of his own personal hatred, Chu Xiao almost went mad with hatred.

On the way back to the inn, Wu Gui endured and endured, but in the end he couldn't hold back, and cautiously suggested: "Master, why don't you go back to Beijing with your subordinates."

He didn't dare to let Chu Xiao stay here any longer.

Naturally, Wu Gui is the clearest about his master's temperament.He knew that Chu Xiao was able to refrain from attacking Nan Wang Shizi just now. On the one hand, it was because he was too frightened and it was a little late to recover; on the king.

If Nan Wang was in the mansion at that time, Chu Xiao's violent temper would definitely explode on the spot.

"Am I that impatient?"

Chu Xiao glanced at Wu Gui coldly, and said angrily, "You can go with peace of mind. Before Brother Huang has made up his mind, I promise that I will never touch even half of King Nan's vellus hair, okay?"

Wu Gui: "All right, all right."

Although he failed to achieve his goal, this guarantee made Wu Gui feel at ease. After all, one of the greatest strengths of his master is to keep his promises. He will definitely do what he promised others, and he has never broken his promise.

Deeper, Wu Gui raised his head, glanced at the crescent moon hanging in the sky, and changed the subject: "By the way, it's already the end of the month, master, do you still have enough medicine? If it's not enough , I just happened to bring some more out this trip.”

"...No need, the medicine is still enough."

During the conversation, the two had passed through the dark and damp alley. Not far away, two lanterns that looked extraordinarily bright in the night appeared in Chu Xiao's field of vision. Shake from side to side.

Seeing those two warm shades of yellow, Chu Xiao's complexion softened a little, and his sanity gradually returned.

"Forget it, you'd better rest here for two days before leaving." He was so angry just now that he forgot to show compassion for his subordinates. Wu Gui just came all the way from the capital, so he probably hasn't recovered yet. , how can I set off for Beijing immediately.

Wu Gui was very moved but refused.

Of course, he also wanted to rest for two days, but the problems in Nanwang Mansion were too serious. In order to avoid more hidden dangers, he had to report back to Beijing as soon as possible.

While promising Wu Gui that he would not tamper with Nanwang, Chu Xiao was also cautious.

He only promised that he would not touch Nan Wang, but he did not promise that he would not touch Nan Wang Shizi. After all, even if all the personal grievances were put aside, he could not tolerate Nan Wang Shizi continuing to waste money with that face that was exactly like his brother's. .

Chu Xiao seriously formulated a disfigurement plan.

#Thanks to Situ Jing who provided him with inspiration#

Prince Nan probably also knew that his face was not visible, so he seldom went out during the day, and even when he went out to have fun at night, he never forgot to put on a mask, pretending to be an ordinary rich man.

This provided Chu Xiao with a lot of convenience.

It was night, and the Prince Nan who couldn't bear the loneliness really slipped out of the mansion again.

In Wuyang City of Nuo Da, there are many places where you can have fun, but the children of the rich and powerful who really have the means often only choose one place to go, and that is the Happy Building in the west of the city-this is a place dedicated to the rich and powerful. On the surface, the place is just a teahouse, but inside, there are all kinds of businesses.

Casinos, brothels, underground auctions, martial arts arenas, as long as people can think of entertainment methods, there are everything here.

High-end entertainment venues like this often have extremely strict entry requirements. If you are not a regular customer, if you want to step into the gate, you not only need to pay a high entrance fee, but also have an old customer as an intermediary to lead the way in person.

In order to save money and trouble, Chu Xiao resolutely gave up his plan to follow up.

He chose to sit on the sidelines.

There is a large garden near the tea house. There is also a small night market in the garden. It is said that it was funded and built by Nan Wang. It is provided for free for wealthy businessmen who pursue elegance. By the way, it can also be used by ordinary people who cannot afford to open stores Provide a livelihood.

Nan Wang's move was originally to gain some good reputation among the people.

It's a pity that there are only a very small number of people who are willing to buy it.

In the end, most of the people who really set up business here are those with power and support behind them. Ordinary people would rather continue to set up a small stall on the street than come here to do business.

When the lights came on, there were still many leisurely and elegant pedestrians wandering in the garden, and Chu Xiao who was among them was not so conspicuous.

Because he had a premonition that a "protracted battle" was about to be fought, when Chu Xiao passed by the night market, he bought a lot of snacks and dried fruits, planning to pass the time with these things.

He found a high platform where the Happy Building could be seen, then casually leaned against the railing, took out a bag of melon seeds and started to lick them.

The melon seeds were a bit greasy after eating too much, so Chu Xiao casually touched them, and took out another bag of fried chestnuts with sugar that was still warm.

He bought these chestnuts from an old lady who seemed to be over [-] years old when he passed by a path just now. To be honest, the price is a bit expensive. If he didn't think it was not easy for the old man to make money, he would not have paid for it.

Chu Xiao casually took out a chestnut from his bag, then casually lowered his head... Huh?

Under the high platform, the white-clothed swordsman walking alone in the forest path looked back indifferently. When he saw the familiar face of the young man, a hint of surprise seemed to flash in his eyes.

This is really, it is fate to meet thousands of miles away =v=

Chu Xiao's eyes lit up, and he quickly stuffed the peeled chestnut into his mouth, then jumped off the high platform and ran to Ye Gucheng.

"Coincidentally, it turns out that you, the city lord, also like to go out for a walk at night!"

Facing the joyful eyes of the young man, Ye Gucheng was slightly taken aback, then nodded involuntarily.

Ever since he rejected Chu Xiao, Ye Gucheng has not met with him for several days. Under such circumstances, even though Ye Gucheng didn't take this matter to heart, he would inevitably take it for granted that Chu Xiao was doing it on purpose. avoid yourself.

But now it seems...

Chu Xiao: "Then do you plan to continue to visit the garden or go back to the inn? How about we get together!"

It's rare to have an excuse to get close to a beauty. Of course, Chu Xiao doesn't want to miss it. As for the son of the Southern Prince, it probably won't be finished in a while.

He's called a flirtatious man, and he's not mistaken about his office work, so he's just ungrateful for sex (*/ω＼*)

Ye Gucheng: "You—"

Chu Xiao: (p≧w≦q) Hurry up and agree!

"--poisoned."

Seeing someone whose face was already black and blue but still unconscious, Ye Gucheng reminded him subtly.Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, someone rolled his eyes and fell straight towards him.

Ye Gucheng: "..."
