In the blink of an eye, it is the end of winter, the Spring Festival is approaching, and the wedding date of Gu Yirou and Xuanyuanye is gradually approaching.

Gu Yirou, who was supposed to be immersed in love, has a thorn in her heart.

——Where did Gu Yizhao go?

She naturally hoped that Gu Yizhao was already dead, and there was no body left, so even Xuanyuanye couldn't find anyone.

But the system's long-distance obliteration failed, and she felt more and more that Gu Yizhao also had cards behind him, and the happiness in front of her was as fragile as foam.

Today, the system suddenly assigned her a task.

【Mission Release: Kill Xue Li】

[Task introduction: Mage Xue Li will become a key person who affects the fate of the host. After he enters the capital, use any method to kill him!It is recommended that the host seek help from his fiancé, Xuanyuan Ye! 】

[Warning: You must wait until it enters the capital before killing it!Otherwise, the host will be responsible for the consequences! 】

"...Who is Xue Li?"

Gu Yirou was stunned for a long time, unable to think why the system would assign her such a weird task. Obviously, the tasks assigned to her by the system in the past were all related to people she had contact with and had a bad relationship with.

But... I can't control that much anymore!

The system is a magic weapon with limited intelligence, but it is loyal to her, at least everything it does so far is for her good.

This Xue Li is likely to bring her bad luck. This person is probably related to Gu Yizhao. After all, the last mistress of Gu's mansion was surnamed "Xue"!

"Master, although you and I have never met, I'm sorry, this girl is very stingy, and no one can stand in front of me."

After finishing speaking, Gu Yirou called the hidden guard Xuanyuanye placed beside her, and asked the dark guard to hand over her letter to Xuanyuanye.

The secret guard moved quickly, and Xuanyuanye smiled after receiving the letter written by Gu Yirou.

"Since the fiancée of this palace wants to kill someone, there must be nothing wrong."

"Come here! Go to the gate of the capital and keep an eye on him at all times. After the man named Xue Li enters the capital, bring him over to see you immediately! I want to see who makes my fiancée so uneasy!"

……

In the Xuanzheng Hall of the Imperial Palace, the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty was reviewing the memorial and listening to the report of the president of the chamber of commerce.

"Your Majesty, I heard the report from Shi Dafu, the head of the Futao Caravan, that Master Xue Li has a pair of eyes and can occasionally see the death of others clearly."

Emperor Da Zhou finally raised his head, with a flash of interest in his eyes: "Oh?"

The president of the Chamber of Commerce continued: "This year, the number of strange borders has increased, and several villages and towns have been wiped out on the border of Daqi next door. The presence of Master Xue Li just happens to solve our problems."

Emperor Da Zhou showed a satisfied smile: "I have heard about Master Xue Li's deeds every day recently. I should introduce someone with such great ambitions as 'the world is hell, and hell is not empty. I will never become a Buddha'." .Now the enchantment in our country should also be strengthened, the national teacher is old, and is worried about finding a successor."

"However..." The president of the chamber of commerce suddenly showed embarrassment.

The Emperor of Great Zhou frowned: "But what? Don't talk about it, just say what you want."

The president of the Chamber of Commerce: "The identity of Master Xue Li is doubtful!"

Emperor Da Zhou narrowed his eyes: "Let's listen carefully."

The president of the Chamber of Commerce said solemnly: "The captain of the Futao caravan claimed that Master Xue Li set off from the capital two months ago. It means Master Xue Li was born in Liucheng! After carefully checking the local birth population, I found that a child named Xue Li disappeared in the Xue family a few years ago. Although he reported his disappearance, there has been no news. Duojishao. Your Majesty, what do you say..."

After thinking about it for a while, Emperor Da Zhou's face flashed with dismay.

Two months ago, it happened to be the day when the eldest son of the Gu family disappeared. That son was a well-known white-eyed wolf in the capital, even he had heard of it.

At that time, he was a little puzzled that Gu's family gave birth to such a wonderful woman, but now that he thinks about it, it is an intriguing thing that the current headed mother of Gu's family has a very good reputation, but the original child is notorious.

If he remembered correctly, Gu Xiuwen's original wife, Mrs. Xue, was born in the Xue family in Liucheng.

Xue Li, who had been missing for many years, suddenly popped up and fled from the capital two months ago. Isn't the true identity of "Master Xue Li" clear?

The Emperor of Great Zhou said solemnly: "As long as it is a human being, it can be used by me. You just step back, and I will meet Master Xue Li in person. Don't disclose today's matter to anyone. Let the leader of the Futao Merchant Don't want to casually reveal Master Xue Li's experience..."

"Um...it seems to be too late, Your Majesty." The president of the chamber of commerce replied in cold sweat, "Some people in the chamber of commerce thought that Master Xue Li might be a wicked person with treacherous schemes, and the people in the Futao caravan were very angry. Argued all over with them and blew everything out."

Emperor Da Zhou frowned slightly, and soon relaxed it again.

"It's okay, just let them stop discussing it later. In the same way, whether it's something weird or something about Master Xue Li, don't disclose it to people outside the caravan, otherwise I will have to kill. "

Today, the enchantment in the Great Zhou Kingdom is built based on the "ignorance" of the people. It's fine for one or two people to know, but if too many people know, the enchantment will be broken, and strange things will flood in. ,The consequences could be disastrous.

The president of the Chamber of Commerce quickly kowtowed: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, because Master Xue Li's deeds are based on strangeness to eliminate weirdness, and he can be regarded as a person who has a close relationship with weirdness. Get things out of the way!"

"Hehe~ Then I will leave it to you." Emperor Da Zhou softened his tone, "Don't publicize the matter of Master Xue Li's entry to the capital. Before the master enters the capital, send someone to pick him up in a low-key manner."

Chamber of Commerce President: "Yes."

……

Not long after, Gu Yizhao received the emperor's edict personally sent by the president of the chamber of commerce.

"Master Xue Li, I am Bian Saixue, the president of the Great Zhou Chamber of Commerce. This edict is written by His Majesty. I wonder when Master Xue Li will be free to come to the palace to meet His Majesty?"

Gu Yizhao hooked the corners of his mouth, thinking that this day really came, he bowed his hands politely, put the imperial edict in his arms, and replied: "I'll be free in these two days."

"That's a very good relationship!" The president of the Chamber of Commerce was pleasantly surprised, so that he has fulfilled his mission when he came out this time.

Immediately afterwards, the president of the Chamber of Commerce said that he would send a carriage over to pick up Gu Yizhao in a low-key manner, but Gu Yizhao refused on the grounds that "the speed of the carriage is not as fast as the foot journey".

In fact, it does.

Even if Gu Yizhao lost his strange power, with the help of herbal medicine in the past two months, he can be regarded as a small success in practicing "Compassion and Purification of Demon Records". If he is tired, he can still let Feng Yeyue and Yin Jian lead him. It is the slower speed of the carriage.

The president of the chamber of commerce was shocked, thinking how Gu Yizhao could recover so quickly, he obviously needed to drink medicine not long ago to save his life, but now he can no longer even use the carriage.

After the president of the Chamber of Commerce returned, Yin Jian jumped out from the forest not far away, looking at Gu Yizhao with a little more shock in his eyes.

Originally, he thought that the other party would use some method to enter the capital, why did he not do it for so long, it turned out that the other party was waiting for the imperial edict of the Great Zhou Emperor?

Why, people won't go unless the emperor invites them?

He asked: "I don't know why Mr. Xue thinks that he will be invited by the Emperor of the Great Zhou?"

Gu Yizhao replied with a light smile: "The chamber of commerce monopolizes the secrets of weirdness and belongs directly to the emperor. My existence will naturally be known to the emperor. There will never be too many talents who can use weirdness."

Yin Jian nodded: "What you said is also reasonable. I'll pack up the package and go to Beijing with you."

Feng Yeyue said leisurely: "Then I will go too, but I have nothing to prepare."

"My brother and the village master's brother are both going to the capital? Then I will go too!" Liang Qiu'er widened her eyes, raised her hand and said, "Xiao Xue is my disciple, so my master must care about it!"

It's a pity that Liang Qiu'er's proposal was rejected by Yin Jian and Feng Yeyue just after it was published.

"No."

"You can't go."

Liang Qiu'er was a little wronged, and looked at Yin Jian and Feng Yeyue anxiously: "Why? You can all go to play, why can't I go?"

She is a girl from a poor place, how can she not yearn for the prosperity of Da Zhou's capital?Not to mention that Gu Yizhao and others went to the Great Zhou Palace!

If it is said that there are powerful and strange things that she can't handle in the capital of Great Zhou, that's fine, but there is clearly not even a strange thing in the territory of Great Zhou.

"Who told you that we are going to play?" Feng Yeyue shook her head with a smile, and said patiently, "Do you think that if there is no weirdness, we will not be in danger?"

Liang Qiu'er blinked and asked, "Isn't it?"

Yin Jiandao: "Of course not. The weirdness combined with us will also be suppressed. In other words, the two of us will change from weird people back to stronger people."

Liang Qiu'er took two steps back in surprise.

She is used to using the strange power, and she can't imagine what she will become after the strange power disappears.

In case of encountering strange or ulterior motives again, wouldn't there be no way to escape?

"However, Qiu'er, you also have an important mission on your shoulders, and I asked you to come out this time to investigate you." Yin Jian bent down, touched the top of the little girl's head, smiled like a brother, "We hope that when we are not in the cottage, you can guard the cottage with Guardian Right and the others. All matters in the cottage are based on you and Guardian Right."

This was Liang Qiuer's long-cherished wish.

She hopes that she can be as useful to the cottage as Yin Jian, and hopes to gain the trust of Yin Jian and the residents of the cottage. She will work hard to become a qualified guardian.

However, this is all for the future.

She was too young, and she was still a girl.

As far as she knew, there was no cottage that would let a girl take over the territory temporarily, even if she was an equal to another guardian.

She needs more and more preparations before she has the confidence to let herself sit in that position, even if it is only for a day and a half.

Seeing Liang Qiu'er's struggling expression, Gu Yizhao cupped his hands and said:

"Could it be that the master is troubled, worried that he will not be able to manage the cottage well?"

Liang Qiu'er, who had always been unwilling to show weakness in front of Gu Yizhao, nodded her head, her excessive inferiority complex made her even the slightest thought of being brave blow away like a weathered stone.

Gu Yizhao said sincerely: "Master, you are the master of Master Xue Li, so you are naturally different. You see, the owner of the cottage, your brother, and Master Xue Li all recognize you so much, Master, why should you belittle yourself? Are we not standing high enough?"

"of course not!"

Liang Qiu'er said anxiously, "In my opinion, you are the most capable people!"

In the beginning, she was still proud of being a "master", but as Gu Yizhao became more proficient in dealing with strange things, every time the other party called her "master", she would feel panicked.

Gu Yizhao smiled back: "Master, you also think that we are the most capable people, so why don't you want to admit that you are also the most capable people?"

After saying this, Liang Qiu'er felt that she had realized it.

Yes, the three most extraordinary people I think all have trust in me, so what I have to do now is not to prove that I can "do it", but how to "do better".

Being young is not a problem, let alone being a girl!

"I understand..." Liang Qiu'er clenched her fists, her eyes sparkled with a moving brilliance, "But I also have demands on you! You three have to come back, otherwise I won't forgive you!"

The three men looked at each other and smiled, and said in unison: "I promise to complete the task."

Everyone briefly went back to the cottage to pack some clothes. Before leaving, Liang Qiuer blushed and gave Gu Yizhao her most precious hibiscus butterfly hairpin.

The ruby ​​swallowtail butterflies on the hibiscus butterfly hairpin are lifelike, as if they are perched on several golden hibiscus flowers, which is very gratifying.

"This is a birthday present made for me by my elder brother and the elder brother of the Walled Master. I will give it to you."

A young girl is willing to pass on the gifts from the two most important people to herself. Feeling the heavy heart, Gu Yizhao frowned and said:

"Such a precious thing, the disciple is ashamed to accept it, and it is enough for the master to have this kind of heart."

"If you take me as your master, you will accept it! You have been my disciple for so long, and I didn't even give you a gift. It is really unreasonable."

Seeing that Gu Yizhao still didn't intend to reach out, Liang Qiu'er stomped her feet angrily, threw the hairpin into the other's arms, and scolded, "This has no other meaning, it's really just a gift from my master to my disciple!"

Before she finished speaking, Liang Qiu'er covered her face and ran back to the boudoir, and locked the door, expressing that she did not support returning the gift.

Gu Yizhao blinked, carefully put away the gift, and cupped his hands towards the courtyard where Liang Qiu'er lived.

Looking at this scene, Liang Qiu'er felt happy at first, but when she turned her head, she propped her face with her chin, her brows and eyes were a little lonely.

Why can't she see that both her brother and the village master's brother "love" this disciple who came suddenly?

These days, when people are in dire straits, it is not uncommon for two men to form a "brotherhood agreement", but it is very rare for three men to have a relationship where they are constantly cutting things off.

"Brother Zhaizhu has never meant anything to me, and he will scold me because of him, but he is my favorite disciple... Forget it, I will send out the hairpin today. If you want to fight, you should fight hard to win or lose." .”

"Hmph~ After all, you will always be my elder brother, the elder brother of the Walled Master, and my disciples! I will still be the one who wins!"

Instead of saying that Liang Qiuer gave away her hairpin, it would be better to say that she gave away her first love.

……

In this way, Gu Yizhao finally finished the task of hunting Weird to make himself famous in Da Zhou, and went to Beijing with Yin Jian, Feng Yeyue, and the best young men in the other three cottages.

There is a stone tablet in the border of Great Zhou, as soon as he stepped into it, Gu Yizhao felt strangely weak, and so did Feng Yeyue.

Yin Jian is in the best condition.

His power does not come from strangeness, but from the chaotic space held by him. Even after entering Dazhou, the chaotic spiritual power in his body is still not affected.

Feng Yeyue is also okay, she has her own set of soul cultivation methods, and the foundation of the original body is quite solid, and after losing the strange power, she can still toss back and forth freely on the tall trees as before.

But Gu Yizhao was different, his body was severely poisoned by various poisons, and after his cunning was suppressed, most of the zhenqi he had cultivated with great difficulty immediately dissipated.

After all, the time for him to travel back to recuperate is too short. Currently, his physical condition is better than ordinary people, but the accumulated old injuries have not completely disappeared from his body.

Because Yin Jian was in the best condition, he took the initiative to shoulder the task of carrying people when Gu Yizhao was exhausted.

"If you don't mind, come on my back. Remember to hold on to my neck, otherwise I'm afraid you will be thrown... Also, I will definitely sweat along the way, if you feel uncomfortable , please bear with it."

Yin Jian thought that he was not a rough person. On the contrary, compared with the situation where most of the men here don't take a bath often and don't take care of themselves, he is already very refined.

However, as soon as he saw Gu Yizhao's breezy appearance, he couldn't help but feel ashamed from the bottom of his heart.

——After all, I am still a clumsy man, not like a rich and noble man from a serious background in ancient times, even his clothes are covered with a fresh and pleasant fragrance.

But how could Gu Yizhao despise him?On the contrary, it is simply a great benefit.

He can justly bury his head on his lover's shoulder, and carefully sniff the sunny rosin.

However, on Yin Jian's shoulders, Gu Yizhao will not indulge in enjoyment blindly, but will work hard to recover his physical strength in order to reduce his lover's hard work, and then hurry on his own way after recovery.

In the end, the crowd hurried and hurried, and it took less than half a month to successfully arrive at the capital, which was much faster than a horse-drawn carriage.

After everyone entered Beijing, they thought that they would not encounter obstacles if they had presented the relevant identification certificates.

But they never thought that as soon as they entered the capital, before everyone had time to appreciate the prosperous scene of the capital decorated with lanterns and festoons a few years ago, a few soldiers stopped them.

"Who are you? What are you doing here?"

Perhaps Gu Yizhao's clothes were so good that even the nobles couldn't match them. Even when these soldiers were interrogating, their tone was obviously slowed down, with a bit of sternness.

Gu Yizhao knew that such links would not be set up on the way to Beijing, but years ago was when there were the most thieves and robbers, so it was normal to be strict.

He replied politely: "Xue Li is a monk, and the two behind me are laymen from the same sect as me, and the three behind me are my servants and guards. "

In the end, none of the people shaved their hair. Instead of forcing them to say what sect they were from, they could easily finish the job by saying "children of lay people".

At this time, Yin Jian and Feng Yeyue also changed into a set of monk clothes and cassock respectively, but compared with Gu Yizhao's attire, they seemed too low-key.

The expressions of the soldiers suddenly became weird, and they looked at Gu Yizhao from top to bottom, in disbelief: "You are Xue Li?"

"Yes, Xue Li is here."

Seeing the guilty look in the eyes of these soldiers, Gu Yizhao knew that he had encountered difficulties.

This difficulty must come from Xuanyuan Ye.

Except for people related to Gu Yirou, not many irrelevant people will know his identity, because "Xue Li" is inseparable from the strangeness.

As for the emperor, it is even more impossible to use such dirty methods to conduct unnecessary tests.

I'm afraid that the top villain system has issued a mission, intending to make him die silently in the capital.

It's a pity that this time, Gu Yirou's system made a bad move.

Unrelated people shouldn't know his identity, and even the emperor personally invited him. Xuanyuanye is a prince, what qualifications does he have to send someone to block him?

"You, you come with us!"

The soldier's tone immediately became serious.

Gu Yizhao took the time to say: "Oh~ dare I ask why? I just entered Beijing, but where did I violate the rules?"

With a cold face, the soldier grabbed Gu Yizhao's sleeve, and the excellent texture of the monk's robe was heard, which made the soldier's struggle look even heavier.

——If you catch a monk who looks extraordinary, will you really not suffer retribution from the Buddha?

"You seem to be involved in the disappearance of an important person. It just so happens that our Ninth Prince is in charge of this case. Please come back with us! Otherwise, don't blame us for being rude!"

Hearing this, a sarcastic sneer flashed in Gu Yizhao's eyes, Feng Yeyue hooked the corners of his mouth meaningfully, and several dangerous looks flashed in Yin Jian's eyes.

Gu Yizhao took the time to say: "Naturally, His Royal Highness Ninth Prince is in charge of the case, so I naturally have to cooperate with you, so let this benefactor lead the way. If His Royal Highness Ninth Prince can't wait, I'm afraid he will be held accountable."

Seeing Gu Yizhao's cooperation, the soldiers breathed a sigh of relief, and they did not dare to put the shackles on Gu Yizhao's body, but they were still afraid of running away, so they surrounded them.

In the final analysis, the Ninth Prince was brutal but deeply loved by His Majesty. As soldiers, they had no choice but to think about their own safety.

Not to mention arresting a noble-looking monk without knowing the truth, they had to bite the bullet and arrest an innocent person as a scapegoat today.

But others didn't know that Gu Yizhao's entry into Beijing was closely watched by the Emperor of Zhou.

Just as Gu Yizhao and the others were taken away in this room, the head guard in front of the hall with quick legs reported the matter to the other side.

"What are you talking about? Master Xue Li, whom I invited, was taken away by someone sent by my Ninth Prince?"

A look of serious thought flashed in the dark eyes of Emperor Da Zhou.
