The Great Hero [Comprehensive Martial Arts]

After reprimanding Wu Gui, Chu Xiao's head, which was a little dizzy from the rage, gradually came to his senses.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, the situation is not necessarily as sinister as it seems on the surface.

For one thing, his family, Ah Cheng, is so powerful, how could he be tricked by that idiot Nan Wang?Secondly, as far as he knows, Acheng has more than the power of the city lord's mansion. Even if Acheng is not there and the old housekeeper is in charge, even if Nan Wang succeeds for a while, Baiyun City is not really powerless to deal with it. .

In short, the more Chu Xiao thought about it, the more he felt that this matter was strange.

Maybe Baiyun City is playing tricks and pretending to fool Nanwang.

However, doubts are doubts, and with the idea of ​​not being afraid of ten thousand but just in case, Chu Xiao simply issued another secret order, asking the guards to pay close attention to the situation in Baiyun City, especially the movement of the City Lord's Mansion.

If the City Lord's Mansion does not make any other moves, it means that he guessed correctly. If there is a big move...then let the dragon guards cooperate fully to relieve the danger of Baiyun City.

Putting aside the calculations in Chu Xiao's mind for the time being, on the other hand, Gong Jiu, who has always been arrogant and thinks that no one can match her intelligence and wisdom, only cheats others and no one else cheats herself, has finally realized that the tiger is falling. The miserable taste of Pingyang.

Ye Gucheng did not treat Gong Jiu badly in terms of basic necessities, food, housing, transportation, etc. In addition to the restricted range of activities due to the confinement of internal power, as a prisoner, or "a gift to meet", Gong Jiu was treated quite well.

If that's all, Gong Jiu is not intolerable.

After all, his endurance and adaptability have always been very good.

But the terrible thing is that Gong Jiu has a very special problem, which happens every once in a while. If he is not satisfied, it will be a thousand times more painful than not letting him eat, sleep and take a bath!

It's almost like life is worse than death!

Gong Jiu, who asked for a beating when he was sick and was rejected, and his knife was confiscated even when he wanted to stab himself to solve it, was in a bad mood.

Uncomfortable and wronged, I especially want to greet the eighteen generations of Ye Gucheng's ancestors.

But the able-bodied Ninth Young Master finally gave up the idea of ​​dying.

Because he was afraid that Ye Gucheng would be like the last time, when he was stimulated by the murderous aura and fell ill, he would be tied up into a rice dumpling and passed through the illness without moving.

Gong Jiu, who had experienced that taste once, expressed that she absolutely did not want to experience it again.

While scratching the bloodstains on his body with his nails, he comforted himself in the midst of bitterness. It doesn't matter if his tools were confiscated. Although he was a little bit aggrieved and worked hard, he could still move and be himself. Hands-on 'well-fed' Well!

More than half an hour later, after receiving the report from the attendant, and knowing that Gong Jiu had bruised himself all over again, Ye Gucheng calmly ordered the attendant not to call the doctor to treat him.

Anyway, with Gong Jiu's abnormal self-healing ability, the wound will heal itself in less than a day, and it will save the waste of medicinal materials.

In early March, Ye Gucheng arrived in the capital smoothly.

And not long before Ye Gucheng arrived, Chu Xiao finally found out the real situation of Baiyun City.

As he expected, nothing happened in Baiyun City. The so-called crisis is just an illusion. Even the people in the city who were 'infected with the disease' were actually the guards of the city lord's mansion who had taken the antidote in disguise. of.

Chu Xiao, who made a false alarm: ... you city people really know how to play.

While feeling very tired, Chu Xiao also vaguely sensed the intention behind Ye Gucheng's move.

He believes that Ye Gucheng has no intention of treason, but he is not afraid of thieves stealing, but he is afraid of thieves thinking about it. The descendants of the royal family of the previous dynasty have superb swordsmanship, a wealth that can rival the country's wealth, and there is a weakness on the surface. The superposition of factors is enough to make Nan Wang unscrupulous to 'woo' Ye Gucheng.

The situation is obviously not good for Ye Gucheng.

If Nan Wang really took advantage of his weakness, he would know that even if he was reluctant, Ye Gucheng would eventually be forced to be driven by him.

There is only one way to reverse the situation, and that is to remove the threat of King Nan.

But it is not an easy task to get rid of King Nan.

Like Emperor Qing, Ye Gucheng also had many concerns, so he could only lure Nan Wang to take the bait, collect criminal evidence, and then "righteously" get rid of Nan Wang.

If so...

Chu Xiao silently wrote down Nan Wang's black account again in his heart.

Hmph, in the future, he will definitely not let King Nan die too easily!

After finding out what happened, Chu Xiao revoked Wu Gui's original mission, transferred him to Lingnan, and started making preparations for closing the net in advance.

While waiting for Ye Gucheng, Chu Xiao was not idle.

While doing his best as a landlord, he enthusiastically entertained Hua Manlou who came to the capital to visit the five children of the Hua family. At the same time, he also controlled the dragon guards and quietly checked the officials in the middle of the capital, so as not to slip through the net when dealing with Nanwang and his henchmen. fish, leaving behind hidden dangers.

The former is an easy thing to do.

Huamanlou himself is a very easy-going person, and his appearance is very pleasing to the eye. Even if he just drinks tea with him and enjoys the flowers, Chu Xiao feels very happy.

As for his identity...

To be honest, when confessing to Hua Manlou, Chu Xiao was quite apprehensive in his heart, for fear that Hua Manlou would get upset because of this.

But in fact, after learning of Chu Xiao's true identity, Hua Manlou not only understood Chu Xiao's behavior of concealing his identity very well, but also explained Chu Xiao in turn, persuading him not to feel guilty about it.

Chu Xiao was particularly moved, so he gave Hua Manlou a pure and friendly hug.

Chu Xiao swore, that was really a pure hug!

A hug between friends!

So Fifth Brother Hua, can you stop staring at me with those anti-disciple eyes qaq~

Hua Yunxi said that this might be a bit difficult.

There is no way, Hua Yunxi will definitely not think too much about putting it aside, but who made him accidentally listen to it when Chu Xiao was chatting with Hua Manlou?

Ever since she learned that Chu Xiao was the killer Zhu Xiao who caused a lot of trouble because of being with Ye Gucheng some time ago, Hua Yunxi couldn't control her sense of crisis.

His younger brother is so nice, what if Chu Xiao falls in love with Qi Tong?

Chu Xiao: "..."

I especially want to give Hua Yunxi a heartfelt advice, too much brain supplement is also a disease, big brother!

Although Huamanlou is indeed a very attractive person in terms of appearance and personality, but in the eyes of Chu Xiao, who is a beauty in the eyes of lovers, he is certainly not as good as Ye Gucheng.

Besides, how could a good man like him who is quite dedicated to feelings be able to empathize with someone else?

However, no matter how Chu Xiao explained it, or how Hua Manlou persuaded him dumbfoundedly, Hua Yunxi just couldn't let it go, and persisted in implementing the 'third party' policy.

Chu Xiao asked Huamanlou to go shopping, Huayunxi accompanied him all the way, and asked Huamanlou to enter the palace to enjoy the flowers, and Huayunxi also made a detour to intervene in the name of meeting Emperor Qing. In short, Wherever there are Chu Xiao and Huamanlou, there is Huayunxi.

It's just annoying.

The troubled Chu Xiaofan was aroused with a rebellious mentality.

He has always adopted a simple and rough style of behavior, under the banner that physical communication between friends is normal, he hooked up with Hua Manlou in various ways, causing Hua Yunxi to jump repeatedly——

But no matter how anxious Hua Yunxi was, it was useless, even Hua Manlou uncharacteristically ignored him.

Perhaps it was because Chu Xiao was several years younger than himself, Huamanlou always treated him with a kind of pampering like an elder brother to a younger brother, even if Chu Xiao's obvious "revenge" against Hua Yunxi, in Huamanlou From Lou's point of view, it was nothing more than childish venting of being wronged.

And strictly speaking, Fifth Brother was at fault in this matter, so he should be taught a lesson.

Under Hua Manlou's intentional connivance, Chu Xiao vented the resentment accumulated in his heart very freely, and then expressed his willingness to forgive Hua Yunxi with great generosity, and shook hands with the other party to make peace.

Hua Yunxi answered dumbfounded, and then praised Chu Xiao.

In fact, he was just a little concerned and confused when he first came into contact with Chu Xiao. After all, Chu Xiao's status is unusual, and he was not familiar with the other's personality before, so he would inevitably feel wary.

After getting a general understanding of Chu Xiao, he gradually let go of his guard.

He originally planned to find an opportunity to 'resolve the conflict' with Chu Xiao, but he didn't expect Chu Xiao to suddenly lose his temper and make such a fuss.

Hua Yunxi knew she was wrong, so she cooperated honestly and let Chu Xiao toss about it.

To be honest, Chu Xiao's petty revenge was really childish in Hua Yunxi's opinion, and he almost laughed out loud several times. Fortunately, this farce ended in time, otherwise he might not be able to hold on for long.

Holding back a smile is also a very hard thing.

Sighing in her heart, Hua Yunxi couldn't help teasing Chu Xiao again.

"Although I made a mistake in this matter, if you hadn't been staring at Qitong, I wouldn't have misunderstood you."

Well, Qitong's friends are really interesting, all of them are like Lu Xiaofeng, people can't help but want to play tricks on them.

Hearing Hua Yunxi's words, Chu Xiao immediately became embarrassed, and argued in a somewhat hypocritical tone: "Everyone has a love for beauty, Qitong is good-looking, so it's normal for me to look more often. "

"Oh?"

Hua Yunxi raised his eyebrows, gave a chuckle with unknown meaning, and then suddenly turned around: "I heard that Baiyun City Lord is not only unparalleled in swordsmanship, but also has a very good appearance, no wonder you can fall in love with him. "

This is what it says...

Chu Xiao blinked, pretended to be embarrassed on purpose, and sighed: "You are right in saying that, after all, Ah Cheng is good in every way, and he is full of strengths all over his body, so there is nothing I don't like. .”

Alas--

Hua Yunxi shivered silently when she was suddenly shown off.

It's so nasty.

Forget it, forget it, let's not tease Chu Xiao with this topic, because if the goal of the province is not achieved, he will suffer internal injuries first.

If Hua Yunxi could hear Hua Yunxi's inner voice, Hua Manlou, who was quietly watching from the sidelines, would sympathetically remind him that it was already too late.

But in the next second, without reminding, Hua Yunxi realized this by himself.

When that familiar figure came from a distance, Chu Xiao jumped up and rushed over as if flying.

"Acheng!"
