"Yeah, long time no see."

Yu Ze was planning to kill the witness with a knife.

Turning around, she found Gu Xichao standing behind her.

So the originally cold pupils instantly melted, and small flowers bloomed.

He put the knife back into its sheath, and waved his hand with a smile.

There was a happy smile on the face covered with blood, as if he was not at the scene of a murder, but reunited with an old friend in a restaurant after a long absence

Gu Xichao was stunned, the weeping ax was buzzing in his hand, but it hadn't been thrown out for a long time.

——The happy look of that person does not seem to be fake.

Gu Xichao squinted his eyes and looked at him, and finally his eyes stayed in those eyes that were different from ordinary people.

The person in front of him gradually coincided with the person from three years ago.

"It's you?!"

Gu Xichao was shocked and angry.

"You finally remembered me."

Yu Ze's eyes were bent, and there was a little joy in his tone.

But Gu Xichao didn't see any joy in his eyes.

The muscles in the corners of his eyes twitched, staring at the corpse of Cai Xiang in front of him, his eyes were full of blood.

After finally grabbing a life-saving straw, it just — snapped — broke.

"You killed him?"

Gu Xichao gritted his teeth.

"Yes."

"Good! Good! Good!"

Gu Xichao laughed back angrily, three good words in a row, and when the last sound fell, the buzzing small ax had already been released from his hand, and roared towards Yu Ze with the momentum of splitting mountains and rocks!

Yu Ze did not retreat.

He stared at the whistling gray shadow, licked his lips excitedly, and held a beautiful saber in his right hand, reaching for the hovering hidden weapon.

Immediately.

Sparks splashed, and the treasure neighed.

The sound of metal rubbing pierced the night sky, hurting people's ears.

Yu Ze turned the back of his knife and hit back the small axe of God's Cry, and he was pressed back three steps, leaving an obvious mark on the stone bricks on the ground.

"Good stuff!"

He praised sincerely.

Gu Xichao didn't say a word, he threw the hidden weapon again, and at the same time drew out the soft sword around his waist with the other hand, and attacked Yu Ze straight!

As fast as the wind, as powerful as electricity.

Punctuality is like the still water flowing deep in the river, and the attack is like thunder in the clouds, which is unstoppable!

——Gu Xichao's swordsmanship is no worse than his talent.

Yu Ze ducked low and climbed up to the red pillar on the side with his toes.

"I killed your friend?"

"No."

The Weeping Ax changed course.

"Then I killed your father?"

"No."

Yu Ze twisted his waist, jumped off the red pillar, and slammed close to Gu Xichao, the scimitar in his hand infinitely approaching his neck.

"Why is that? After all, we still meet once, right?"

Yu Ze couldn't make a single blow, so he took a few steps back to distance himself from him.

"Because you broke my way!"

Gu Xichao almost gritted his teeth

The eyes looking at Yu Ze were bloodshot, filled with hatred and determination.

Both civil and military, learning and rich five cars.

But the phrase "from a lowly background" made his poor ten years go to waste.

Ups and downs for several years, struggling for several years.

The road that I finally walked out with blood in my mouth and tears was cut off abruptly!

At this time, let alone Yu Ze, a person who only met once, even the Heavenly King and Lao Tzu can kill him!

Gu Xichao gave a low laugh, and attacked desperately.

"Don't fight me anymore," Yu Ze's face turned serious, "I don't want to kill you, I can't take it anymore if I hit you again."

"Hey, I didn't want to kill this person. Someone cared for me to kill him. Why are you chasing me?"

Yu Ze dodged an attack and was a little irritable.

"Besides, I think you're pretty good at drawing, and your martial arts are not bad, so why hang yourself on this person who seeks power and usurps the throne?"

Seeking power and usurping the throne?

Gu Xichao's movements stopped, he held the sword in one hand, stared at Yu Ze, and it took him a while to digest these words completely.

"You said he... seeks power to usurp the throne?"

He slowly withdrew his hand and looked at the person in front of him with heavy eyes.

"Yeah, I came to follow him when I stepped on the spot before, and found something interesting."

Yu Ze kept playing with his knife with both hands, his voice was hoarse, and he looked at Gu Xichao quietly.

"Did you see that multi-treasure tree? Click on the tangled lotus pattern on the third floor, and then turn the blue and white porcelain vase on the second floor to the right three times, and then you will find a lot of good things."

Gu Xichao gave him a scrutinizing look, then turned her head and took a step forward.

However, the next moment, a little bit of fire appeared on the closed screen window, and at the same time, there was a faint noise.

It's the people from Xiangfu who came over.

"Take your time to find—"

Yu Ze walked to the window, his excited hands trembling slightly.

"The people in Xiangfu are not mob."

Gu Xichao frowned, and kindly reminded her.

"I know, but did I say that I'm the only one here?"

After finishing speaking, Yu Ze broke out through the window.

The next moment, the cold knife light slashed across, and the splashed blood instantly stained the window edge red.

There were killing sounds outside the room, and the light of fire, knife, and blood intertwined into one.

……

"I stayed there for an hour, hid some of the important letters, and set fire to the house again."

Gu Xichao tickled the corner of his mouth, "I'm not someone who doesn't know political affairs. There were more than one killer that day, or more than one group. One group hit east and west, one group killed Cai Xiang, and one group just in case... Think about it carefully, the handwriting The only ones that big are those gentlemen in the court..."

"A year ago, half of the civil servants in the court jointly impeached Cai Jin and his close friends, saying that they were plotting to usurp the throne, but in the end it was not enough because of insufficient evidence. Cai Jin still had remnants in the court. ..."

Even people like Chu Liuxiang who didn't care much about the court knew about it.

"However, half a month later, Cai Jin's henchmen were executed by the officials for more than ten crimes including confiscating people's wealth and betraying officials."

Gu Xichao continued, his expression still calm, with a just right smile on his face, he didn't say it clearly, but everyone knew that this matter must have something to do with him.

Chu Liuxiang looked at him steadfastly, he had never realized so clearly like at this moment - the person in front of him was not so much a fox as he was a poisonous snake, he was calm, determined, and ruthless at the same time.

"But that's not what I want to talk about today. Do you know what I saw when I went out that day?"

"Mountain of corpses, sea of ​​blood."

The smile on the corner of Gu Xichao's mouth deepened, and he took a sip of tea.

"He stood in the middle, and there were at least a dozen corpses at his feet, all with their heads separated, and the clothes on his body were dripping with blood. Only then did I really believe what he said. There are really people—born with Likes to kill."

Gu Xichao suddenly lowered his voice, and said cogently: "A person who is born to be bloodthirsty - he should be a devil. Xichao heard that Xiangshuai never kills, so what should you do, Xiangshuai, when facing such a cruel person?" Woolen cloth?"

Chu Liuxiang left.

Sullen and struggling, as if his worldview had suffered a major shock.

Gu Xichao drank the last sip of tea.

Turn around and enter Yu Ze's room.

The tall and thin one was lying on the bed, hugging the pillow and breathing smoothly, sleeping soundly.

"Did you hear that?"

Gu Xichao pulled a stool over and sat down at the head of his bed.

Yu Ze didn't move.

"If you have the ability, you can sleep like this until night, and don't wake up when I bring in dinner and eat it in front of your face."

"I think you praised yourself in front of Chu Liuxiang, and I was clearly so friendly at the time because you wanted to fight me."

Yu Ze opened his eyes and muttered.

"Hey, do you think he will come back?"

"Isn't that what you mean?"

Gu Xichao raised her eyebrows.

"Since yesterday, you have been avoiding Chu Liuxiang. You have been awake and can't hear what you said just now. Since you didn't make a sound, isn't it a tacit consent? Why, regret it now?"

Yu Ze hugged the pillow and said nothing.

"You want to procrastinate and procrastinate for as long as you can. Every day you think about breaking up with him tomorrow, and then you think about tomorrow and today. In the end, it's hard for you to get out. It's better to talk about it as soon as possible."

There was a touch of contempt in Gu Xichao's eyes.

"normal friend……"

"Ah."

Yu Ze shut up.

"Chu Liuxiang got to know you first, and then confronted you with the Raksha ghost. He thought it was a rumor in the world, but it turned out that the rumor couldn't be more true. Both Yu Ze and the Raksha ghost are you—but the way is different. Don't conspire with each other, after the showdown, go or stay with him, if he doesn't look back after that, then make a clean break as soon as possible and stop the loss in time."

When Gu Xichao said this, his expression was cold, rational and calm like a god in a temple looking at the world with cold eyes. .

"Yes, you have always been crueler than me."

Yu Ze turned over and stared blankly at the beam, lazily.

"No, you are underestimating yourself."

Gu Xichao looked at the extremely presumptuous person lying on the bed, and not only remembered the surprise when he heard about his martial arts practice time after they got acquainted.

14 is old.

At this time, the muscles and bones have basically been finalized, and even a piece of raw jade has become rotten wood.

I started practicing martial arts at the age of 14, and I can practice like this now.

Either he is very talented, or he is ruthless to himself.

In this regard, the two do have some common language.

Gu Xichao looked at Yu Ze, and couldn't help but think of a year ago, in fact, he didn't tell Chu Liuxiang the full story.

After the second meeting, he still didn't know Yu Ze's name, and the two really got to know each other half a month after Cai Jin's death.

At that time, he stole the key evidence of Cai Jin's rebellion, and the plan of the court officials to use Cai Jin's rebellion to eliminate their party members was all in vain.

Gu Xichao paid close attention to the movements of the court, and contacted Yu Ze through clues on the third day after Cai Jin's death.

That was their third meeting, and Gu Xichao didn't really know Yu Ze's name until then.

He only made one request to Yu Ze and tried his best to chase him down.

Yu Ze was afraid that he would accidentally kill him, so he demanded all the money in advance, and then pursued him mercilessly.

The two chased after each other, and seven days later, Gu Xichao fell in front of a group of eunuchs who were out of the palace to buy blood, and a corner of the envelope was exposed in his arms.

Take it out, it is full of evidence of Cai Jin's rebellion.

But even so, the emperor still had doubts about him until Yu Ze broke into the palace in the middle of the night and almost cut off Gu Xichao's forearm with a single knife.

Amidst the shouts of "catch the assassin", the emperor finally believed his words.

It is better to please the emperor than to please anyone in this world.

After rolling around in the world for several years, Gu Xichao finally hid his literati arrogance, practiced for many years, and now he has finally acquired a good fortune.

Gu Xichao bowed deeply.

Weeping, earnestly.

The man in the bright yellow robe gave an order.

The cheap status that had suppressed him for many years was removed in such a light manner.

The turbid air that had been smoldering in my heart for many years was completely discharged in an instant.

Gu Xichao knelt on the ground in a daze, listening to the emperor's commendation to him—the Tanhua who passed the exam that year counted again.

Dream come true.

A burst of ecstasy swept over, but after the ecstasy, there was a burst of deep absurdity and ridiculousness.

It turns out that Han Chuang has studied hard for many years, and what he craves with all his strength depends on the likes and dislikes of the person in front of him.

But why?

In this case, why should I study hard for many years?

Gu Xichao stared at the floor tiles in front of him, thinking about it, he couldn't help laughing out loud.

The emperor's voice came from above his head, with a sense of aloofness.

When he asked what award he wanted.

Gu Xichao raised his head slightly, secretly sizing up the emperor in front of him.

In the past, Cai Jin would definitely be by his side, a word, a painting, and a few sweet words could make the lord of the world laugh. At this time, he can get whatever he wants.

Even if it is power, the lord of the world will give it to him indifferently.

Ah.

Gu Xichao slightly hooked the corner of his mouth, he bowed deeply again, and uttered the most daring sentence in his life.

——He wants to be a prince and a tutor.

He had never been so awake for a moment as he is now.

Gu Xichao's heart is higher than the sky, and his talent is indeed worthy of his heart.

——It is not what he wants to spend half his life in an idle job; it is not what he wants to be loyal to the emperor in front of him-slavery and squandering his talents.

Now that the prince is young, it is time to teach him.

There was a faint excitement in Gu Xichao's heart.

Learn literary and martial arts, goods and the emperor's family.

——In this world, there is nothing more exciting for scholars than teaching a wise emperor through the ages!

……

When Gu Xichao went out in a daze, Yu Ze was sitting on the ridge of the roof drinking, with the bright moon hanging behind him, round and round.

He saw him and held out his hand to say hello.

Gu Xichao didn't know what he was thinking at the time, he didn't go to treat the wound, and accompanied the lunatic in front of him, the two of them drank all night on the roof covered in blood.

Yu Ze is relatively dark in terms of hands and heart among the Jianghu people, and his literary talent is simply outstanding among the crowd of "reckless men" who do not take academic achievement as their ultimate goal.

The two have quite a common topic. From this point of view, it is quite natural that the two can become one of the few friends of each other, so natural that it is only a few lines of poetry.

That day, the two sipped wine and sang a poem, and after talking to the moon for half a night, they finally reached a deep revolutionary friendship because of the burning knife, the blood all over their bodies, and the affection of desperately chasing and killing them for many days.

Since then began a rather long period of embarrassing career.

The friendship between the two has also been deepened in this uninterrupted embarrassment, to the point that Gu Xichao originally tried every means to use everything around him, but now he only occasionally uses each other with Yu Ze, and Yu Ze is also quite generous to Gu Xichao. Gu Gu made a [-]% discount and tripled Gu Xichao's worth with him. Of course, if someone still wanted to kill Gu Xichao in the face of such a high price, then it would be useless not to kill Gu Xichao.

Thinking of this, Gu Xichao asked a question out of nowhere.

"How did you deal with the order to kill Chu Liuxiang?"

"Uh……"

Yu Ze's eyes flickered.

"There are very few people chasing him..."

"But if there is one... I usually check the identity of the employer to see if there is any order to kill the employer. If there is, I will accept it. If there is no... just hire myself..."

Gu Xichao's expression became numb.

After talking about this paragraph, there is only one central idea - to kill the employer, whoever kills Chu Liuxiang, I will kill him.

As for hiring yourself...

"Yu Ze," Gu Xichao couldn't help but said, "If I remember correctly, part of the bounty will be used as a handling fee for posting the bounty in Xuanshui Building, right?"

Doesn't that mean you lose money instead?

"Yeah," Yu Ze said indifferently, "[-]% was used as a handling fee, but Wen Yue used all the money to buy snacks for me in the end, so it's not a loss."

"Well, if I hadn't acted on my own for fear of being discovered by Wen Yue, I wouldn't have done such a stupid thing as hiding my identity and hiring myself."

Yu Ze sighed.

If you do this, won't Wen Yue find out?He is not stupid.

Facing this kind of coquettish manipulation, Gu Xichao was completely speechless, the corners of his eyebrows twitched, and finally gave up discussing with Yu Ze about his first love that died without a cause.
