Words must die [Comprehensive martial arts]

Knowing that Gu Shenyan's retreat breakthrough was imminent, the reaction of Lu Xiaofeng and others was no different from that of Zhui Ming. After being surprised, they all understood very well, and naturally had no objection to the retreat plan arranged by Zhui Ming.

That night, a group of people busily held a bonfire dinner in the open space in the valley, which could be regarded as a farewell to Gu Shenyan and others who were one step ahead.

On the second day, Gu Shenyan and others set off on their way home.

Because of the ghost ship, the journey was undoubtedly much easier than when they came. It only took more than half a month, and they returned to the small town on the edge of the desert smoothly.

"This trip to the desert is over."

The moment his feet stepped on the ground again, Zhui Ming couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "To be honest, I feel very kind even when I see a small grass by the roadside."

Although the campaign to encircle and suppress Shi Guanyin went very smoothly and encountered almost no twists and turns, it was not so easy and happy. After all, for the vast majority of people in the Central Plains, the boring and monotonous scenery in the desert and the overly dry climate are really frustrating. Difficult to adapt.

So Zhui Ming said that he never wants to go into the desert again in his life.

Wu Qing, who came to greet everyone after receiving the news, couldn't help laughing when he heard the words: "Although I don't want to pour cold water on you, it's really hard to realize your wish."

At least until the imperial court re-establishes the six doors, it is unlikely to be realized.

Since the incident of Jin Jiuling, since no suitable candidate could be found to take over the important post of chief arrester, the Holy Majesty decreed that the six doors were temporarily disbanded, and the personnel and responsibilities that originally belonged to the six doors were also temporarily merged into the Shenhou Mansion. .

So now, the Shenhou Mansion not only has to take over the cases related to the court, but also is responsible for apprehending those criminals who have committed crimes by force.

In order to avoid being hunted down, those people in the rivers and lakes usually run to places beyond the jurisdiction of the imperial court.

For example, the South China Sea Islands, or the desert outside the customs.

The imperial court had no way to deal with these people before, but it may not be possible in the future.

The reason why Zhuge Shenhou agreed to Ji Bingyan's conditions in the first place was not only for this action, but also for a longer-term future.

Although Shi Guanyin's conspiracy failed, it also sounded the alarm for the court.

For those powerful forces such as the Western Demon Cult, which are entrenched near the territory of Daqing, although the imperial court has no intention of exterminating them, it should also take precautions.

The main reason for the cooperation between the imperial court and Ji Bingyan is because the caravans under Ji Bingyan go to and from the desert all the year round, and they have a better understanding of the situation of the various forces in the desert.

Secondly, with the cover of the caravan, it will undoubtedly be much easier for the imperial court to send people into the desert to inquire about news or arrest fugitives in the future.

At that time, the experienced life chasers will definitely be the priority candidates.

Chasing life: "..."

Zhui Ming was slumped by the bucket of cold water, and he looked listless for a long time. It was not until he saw his favorite wine on the table during the meal that he regained his energy.

It can be seen that when Gu Shenyan and others went to the desert, the Wuqing who stayed here was not idle. The manpower sent by the Shenhou Mansion has now completely taken over this small town. Now patrolling soldiers can be seen everywhere, and this dilapidated and simple inn has also been repaired. Although it is still simple, it is obviously much cleaner than before.

Even the taste of the food has been improved several levels.

Although it was only the standard of ordinary home-cooked food, for Gu Shenyan and others who had eaten dry food for more than two months, this meal was already considered very good.

After drinking and eating, the few people just chatted about business.

Before that, Zhui Ming had only roughly talked about their experience and ruthlessness during this trip, and many details have not been explained. After all, the experience of the past two months cannot be finished in a short while.

For example, Du Huan and other fugitives who happened to meet at King Qiuci, or the destruction of Jamuka.

Chasing Life originally planned to bring the Wu family brothers and the lone thief back to the Central Plains by the way on the return journey, but later, in order to save time, and because the ship already carried too many people and supplies, it was really impossible to add a few more The reason for personally boarding the ship was not implemented in the end, so when he talked about this matter, he did not forget to tell Wu Qing to remember to bring these fugitives with him when the ghost ship went back to pick up other people.

Killing on the spot like Du Huan was done was just forced by the situation. When conditions permit, the pursuit of these fugitives is more inclined to follow the normal process.

It would be too cheap for those people just to die.

But the demise of Zamuhe is embarrassing.

Zhamuhe's power is not weak. Although it cannot be compared with such giants as the Western Demon Cult, it is still a powerful force in the desert. Compared with the Western Demon Cult, Zamuhe's behavior is obviously much more decent .

But such a hero died tragically under Shi Guanyin's conspiracy...

"Zamuhe's power has been completely wiped out, and among his many sons and daughters, only Heizhu escaped the catastrophe." Zhui Ming sighed: "After learning about this, if Xiangshuai hadn't stopped him in time, this girl would have almost escaped. He's about to kill himself."

Although everyone knows that Zamuhe's death was because he refused to compromise with Shi Guanyin, and then angered Shi Guanyin, which caused his death, but Heizhu got into the horns and thought that he was the culprit. Feel very self-blame and guilty for this.

"and many more--"

With a suspicious look on Wuqing's face, he couldn't help but ask, "Isn't Black Pearl a man?"

Speaking of this, the expression on Zhui Ming's face immediately became very strange, as if he couldn't help laughing, but also seemed to be gloating.

"Ahem." He cleared his throat, drank another cup of tea, and assumed the posture of preparing for a long talk, before telling the whole story.

It is strange to say that the "son" that the well-known king of the desert favored the most turned out to be a daughter.

It's just because she wears men's clothing all the year round, and she doesn't look like a girl in her words and deeds at all, that's why she was misunderstood, and she has never been exposed.

According to the three daughters of Su Rongrong, Shi Guanyin didn't discover the true gender of Heizhu at first, and planned to use her beauty to lure Heizhu, so that Heizhu also became a slave under her skirt.

The result is of course a failure.

Shi Guanyin was very frustrated by this, and later even tried to force the overlord to fight, only to find out that the opponent turned out to be a woman after stripping her clothes.

It was quite a joke.

There is also Chu Liuxiang, a romantic vagabond with countless confidante, she didn't know the true gender of the black pearl until Su Rongrong and the three daughters told her.

So it's no wonder that Black Pearl made that seemingly ungrateful act of 'retaliation' before.

After all, when Chu Liuxiang rescued Hei Zhuzhu from the casino, he treated him like a man, so his behavior was unavoidably offensive.

As for Hei Zhuzhu, it is also reasonable for a girl to want revenge after being taken advantage of by others.

She kidnapped the three daughters of Su Rongrong, on the one hand to avenge Chu Liuxiang, and on the other hand, to 'rescue' these three girls who were deceived by lust.

Before being taken away by Shi Guanyin, Heizhu had always treated the three daughters of Su Rongrong very tenderly and cared for them, and the four even became good friends.

In fact, if there hadn't been an accident on the way, Black Pearl originally planned to escort the three daughters of Su Rongrong back to the Central Plains after leaving them to play in the desert for a period of time.

……

When she learned the truth, the expression on Chu Liuxiang's face was indescribably wonderful.

After that, Hu Tiehua laughed at him severely.

Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, the grievances between the two will naturally disappear. Chu Liuxiang himself is a kind and soft-hearted person, and because of the three daughters of Su Rongrong, it is inevitable to treat Heizhu who has suffered a sudden calamity and family ruin. I will feel sorry for you.

After only a few days of getting along, the relationship between the two became intimate with the naked eye, and there were some vague signs of ambiguity.

"Looking at that posture, Black Pearl might stay with Miss Su and the others all the time."

Zhui Ming smiled and said, "I just don't know if Xiang Shuai can bear it."

Although Chu Liuxiang has always said that he only treats the three daughters of Su Rongrong as younger sisters, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the three daughters of Su Rongrong have affection for Chu Liuxiang.

Now there is another black pearl, this is a blessing for everyone, not something ordinary people can bear.

"Oh?" Wu Qing raised his eyebrows, gave Zhui Ming a meaningful glance, and suddenly asked: "Why can't you learn from others? When will you bring a confidante to introduce me to Uncle Shi? "

As the oldest of their four senior brothers, in the past two years, Zhuge Shenhou has been worrying about his life-seeking marriage.

I was afraid that I would not be able to find a partner after my life, and I would be a bachelor for the rest of my life.

Even with ruthless iron hands and cold blood, he was abused.

In order to listen to less nagging, the three of them can only hope that Zhui Ming can get out of the order as soon as possible.

Caught off guard by the 'marriage' chaser: "..."

It was very frustrating.

Who can understand the pain of older bachelors.jpg

Gu Shenyan, who is also an older bachelor and has never been single in three lifetimes: I understand.

Gu Shenyan, who had also been urged to get married by his elders, stood up very sympathetically, and changed the topic: "By the way, there is something I need to ask Sheng Tutou to convey on your behalf."

"This trip to the desert has inspired me a lot. I plan to go back to the south of the Yangtze River to retreat for a while. It was originally agreed that I will go to the capital to visit Shenhou with Yidianhong after this matter is over. I am afraid that it will need to be postponed for a while."

"So I ask Sheng Butou to apologize to Shenhou on my behalf."

"Boss Gu is polite." As expected, Wuqing was distracted by his words, and hurriedly said: "Retreating and breaking through is the most important thing. It doesn't matter if you postpone the visit for a while. Why is there an apology?"

When dealing with martial arts masters like Gu Shenyan, who have no objection to the imperial court and have a bright future, the whole Shenhou Mansion focuses on making friends and wooing them.

Zhuge Shenhou even said that as long as he can win Gu Shenyan to the court, no matter what price he pays, it will be worth it.

So such a trivial matter, Zhuge Shenhou will definitely not mind.

Gu Shenyan naturally knew the reason for this, but he spoke at this time, not only to help Zhui Ming out of the siege, but also to express his position to Zhuge Shenhou with a ruthless mouth.

"That being said, Gu missed the appointment first, so he should apologize to Lord Zhuge."

He turned his head and glanced at Dianhong, then smiled and said: "Furthermore, since I am going to work in the Shenhou Mansion in the future, as the boss, I can't ask him to be in front of his future boss because of me." What a bad impression."

This is not so much a statement to Zhuge Shenhou, but rather a statement to the court.

Yidianhong is still his, but he will work for the court in the future.

This also means that the friendly relationship between him and the court will continue.

Hearing the meaning behind Gu Shenyan's words, Wuqing couldn't help showing a smile on his face. He silently raised his teacup to respect Gu Shenyan, and Gu Shenyan also tacitly raised his teacup in return. It goes without saying.
