Chapter 132

Hadili bowed his head to Hu Xiuwu for the people of Gumo, proving that he was indeed a virtuous king who loved his people like a son, as recorded in the history books.

If this is replaced by King Qiuci, only people ask him, he will not ask for people for the sake of the people, whether it is to reform the official system, or to follow the tactics of Gao Gu, improve the blacksmith workshop, and meet the needs of Jingjue, all for the sake of Consolidate your own position and power.

If one day Jingjue only needs people not to use weapons, he will not resist the queen of Jingjue like Hadili.

As for the reason why Hadili asked Hu Xiuwu, it was a beautiful misunderstanding.

Hadili was shocked by the special effects of the snake god, and overestimated the situation of the snake god. He is now unable to protect himself and has no way to interfere in the real world.
As long as the Queen Jingjue can find a way to get out of the ghost cave, then there is no need to consider the problem of the snake god.

But Hu Xiuwu did not explain this misunderstanding. This is the basis of his cooperation with Hadili. Now Hadili asked him for help first. He turned against the customer and became the one who took the initiative. Let’s go ahead and misunderstand first.

In addition, Hu Xiuwu also wanted to return to the modern age quickly, so he answered cheerfully:

"Okay, I agree to your request, and I will help you deal with the Queen Jingjue."

Hu Xiuwu took out the remaining bearing steel balls from the ghost tomb and put them on the table.
"As the sincerity of the alliance, these wrought irons will be handed over to Prince Hadili."

"However, dealing with the Queen Jingjue requires a lot of calculation, and I can't take it lightly."

Hadili remembered the terrifying aura of Queen Jingjue, who severely injured him with a single blow, and agreed with him with a lingering fear:

"Yes, I also need time to heal my wounds, and I also need to find a skilled craftsman to forge two new short knives from these precious irons."

Hu Xiuwu hesitated, even if Hadili could use these steel balls to create a sharp blade, it was just a mortal weapon.

But looking at Hadili's excited expression, let him be happier for a while, and then think of a way.

Hu Xiuwu was able to agree to form an alliance, Hadili was very happy, and planned to let Hu Xiuwu and Chen Duo stay in his mansion. They had a good talk in the evening, but Hu Xiuwu declined. Farewell, that's not his style.

Hadil asked the attendant to bring Gao Yue back. After Gao Yue came back, his hair was full of moisture and his face was rosy, but he didn't have much alcohol on his body. It seemed that he still did not lose his vigilance.

However, he looked a lot more relaxed, no longer had the same bitter expression as before, and he didn't know how Hadili's people entertained him.

Truth be told, he wanted to try.

Hadili personally sent them out of the mansion. After the three of Hu Xiuwu left, Zu Mugetti no longer maintained his mind, so he no longer had to maintain a state of mind like a mirror. She looked up at her husband:

"Hadili, do you really think these two children can help you?"

In front of his beloved wife, Hadili no longer concealed his thoughts:

"I don't know either, but I have no other choice. Gu Mo can't bear the exploitation of Queen Jingjue."

······
When Hu Xiuwu and the others walked back, it was already late, and everyone in Yancheng who had some spare money had already lit the lights, while the poor people could only rest or do some exercise that could be done without lights to pass the time.

Along the way, Gao Yue practiced the principle that silence is golden. He didn't ask Hu Xiuwu anything, just took them back to Gao's residence.

When they returned to Gao's residence, they found that there was a little yellow light at the gate, reflecting a resentful face.

Holding an oil lamp, Gao Lu stood in front of the gate of Gao's house like a resentful spirit.

Gao Yue said in surprise: "Alu, what are you doing standing at the door?"

what to do?Of course I'm waiting for you, I ran for a day to find you, you know!

Gao Lu stared at Gao Yue for a long time. If the resentment could be turned into reality, Gao Yue would have been smeared by his nephew with resentment.

Looking at Gao Yue's blushing face, and his usual lack of expression, he seemed very happy today, and from time to time he played with Chen Duo, who was playing with the pendant around his neck.

Gao Lu has accumulated countless complaints and wants to vent:

I've been running for so long and I'm tired and worried about you, why do you all look so happy!
Gao Yue was a little hairy when his nephew looked at him, so he could only speak awkwardly:

"What's the matter, Alu, why are you looking at me like this?"

Hu Xiuwu and Chen Duo were standing aside, they couldn't let outsiders see the joke, Gao Lu sighed and said helplessly:

"It's nothing, my uncle told me to wait for you here."

Gao Lu looked at Hu Xiuwu and said calmly, "Sir, my uncle wants to see you."

It's so late, why does Gao Gu want to see me?

Although it was strange why Gao Gu suddenly wanted to see him so late, Hu Xiuwu said happily:

"Okay, it just so happens that I have something to tell him too."

Hu Xiuwu asked Chen Duo to rest first, while he followed Gao Lu to find Gao Gu.

Gao Gu's room was brightly lit, and several oil lamps were lit, making the room as bright as day. When Hu Xiuwu and the others arrived, Gao Gu was looking at a map of the Western Regions by candlelight.

He was immersed in his own thoughts and did not notice the arrival of Gao Lu and Hu Xiuwu at all.

It's like you are addicted to the game, when your mother calls you to eat, you look in a trance, if you answer later, you will get a big mouth that you like to eat.

Gao Lu naturally did not dare to do this to Gao Gu. After he put the oil lamp in his hand on the lamp stand beside him, he could only raise the tone of his voice, trying to wake up the contemplative Gao Gu:

"Uncle! Uncle! Mr. Shugo is here."

Gao Lu called twice, and finally let Gao Gu's eyes move away from the map. Because he was so fascinated, Gao Gu didn't even recognize who Hu Xiuwu was when he saw Hu Xiuwu.

After blinking his eyes twice, Gao Gu just woke up like a dream and said apologetically to Hu Xiuwu:
"I'm really sorry, I was too obsessed with things just now and didn't notice your arrival."

"Lin Heng, you go to rest first, I have some things to talk to Mr. Xiuwu."

"Here!"

After Gao Lu bowed and saluted, he simply left Gao Gu's room. Before leaving, he closed the door of the room to give them a private space.

Gao Gu was not in a hurry to speak, but instead smiled and spread his hands to the position opposite him, motioning Hu Xiuwu to sit opposite him, and then said leisurely:

"I got a piece of news today that Queen Jing Jue ordered three people to be wanted."

"One of them looks exactly like you."

Hu Xiuwu said calmly, "Yes."

Hu Xiuwu's calm response exceeded Gao Gu's expectations. During his journey to the Western Regions, Gao Gu had secretly observed Hu Xiuwu and Chen Duo, and had a general understanding of their personalities.

Chen Duo has a cold temper. Except for Hu Xiuwu, he doesn't care much about other things. Hu Xiuwu looks a little warmer than Chen Duo. In fact, his personality is also very cold, but compared with Chen Duo, he still has some human taste.

In addition, although the two of them are very smart, they have no shrewdness, and most things are written on their faces.

According to Hu Xiuwu's previous character, he should be surprised when he suddenly heard that he was wanted, but now he has no expression after hearing about it.

Gao Gu conjectured: Before me, someone had told Xiu Wu about this matter, was it Hadili, the prince of Gumo?
Gao Lu ran outside for a day, and of course it was not without success, although Prince Gumo's subordinates did not reveal to him the whereabouts of Hu Xiuwu.

But Hu Xiuwu and Chen Duo have such obvious characteristics, and naturally someone saw them in the market. Gao Lu relied on money and Gao Gu's reputation, and finally found out their whereabouts.

Just when he arrived, Hu Xiuwu, Chen Duo and Gao Yue had already entered the residence of Prince Gumo, and the soldiers of Gumo stopped him at the door, not allowing him to enter, nor helping him spread the news.

Gao Yue stood at the door of Prince Gumo's mansion, thinking for a moment that he didn't want to break through the festival, but first came back to Gao Gu. After Gao Gu heard that they had entered Prince Gumo's mansion, he didn't rush to call Hu Xiuwu and Chen Duo back. .

He just instructed Gao Lu to wait at the door for Hu Xiuwu and the others to come back, and then bring Hu Xiuwu to see him as soon as possible.

wrong,

Just thinking of this, Gao Gu suddenly realized that something was wrong:
King Zeluo of Qiuci has not posted a notice yet. According to the information from Gaolu, I heard that Prince Gumo has not left Qiuci for several months, and no one from Gumo has come to see him. Where did he get it? information?

unless······
Gao Gu looked at Hu Xiuwu with bright eyes: "Prince Gumo is the third person who is wanted! The assassin who killed Queen Jing Jue!"
