Summon Qunhao

Chapter 56 [Gold Leaf]

If it is said that the death of Yu Xuansu and Fei Lian the day before, it only caused some inconspicuous ripples in Chang'an City.

Then Zhu Tang's death completely set off an uproar.

Zhu Tang, the current head of the Zhu family in Chang'an, an important figure in Chang'an city, died last night.

The people who killed him were White-haired Ghost and Wuming, two little people who gained some notoriety because of killing Yu Xuansu and Fei Lian.

But they have completely gained fame now, because everyone knows that they killed Zhu Tang. With the power of the two of them, they attacked and killed Zhu's family overnight. Land, come to get the head.

Such a feat can be traced back to 130 years ago, when the sword demon Ximen wiped out the whole family of the Yang family with one sword.

These are two amazing young men.

And more importantly, these two young people are the swordsmen of the Gu family.

The deaths of Yu Xuansu and Fei Lian were just appetizers, and Zhu Tang's death was the Gu family's most powerful voice against Chang'an City. It conveyed a message, that is, the Gu family should not be violated.

Many people who have not finished or almost finished are secretly glad. Originally, they thought that the ultimate victor in this storm in Chang'an was undoubtedly the Yang family, but now it seems that it is still unknown who will win the battle. On the surface Look, the balance of victory seems to be tipping towards the Gu family again.

In addition to these turbulent undercurrents, there is also a group of people who bet a lot of money in the big game last night, and some families are happy and some are sad.

Sell ​​gold upstairs.

In addition to the counter that deals with gambling, there is also an elegant seat for gamblers to rest. Beside one of the tables, a slightly drunk gambler is loudly proclaiming to the people around him that he was in the Zhu Mansion last night. Seeing and hearing outside.

"...Just listening to the white-haired ghost say 'Zhao Keman Huying', he pulled out a knife light like moonlight, and the head of the man holding the knife shot up into the sky, and the white-haired ghost went straight into it. In the Zhu Mansion, you can hear him chanting 'kill a man in ten steps, never stay a thousand miles away'!"

"It's a good way to kill a person in ten steps, and you don't stay behind for thousands of miles. This white-haired ghost is really unrestrained!" The gambler next to him heard his blood boil, and wished he could turn into the white-haired ghost and go straight into the Zhu Mansion, and kill one person in ten steps. Chic artistic conception.

"It's a pity, it's a pity, I didn't go with brother Zijin last night, hey, brother Zijin, talk quickly, what will happen after that?"

"Yes, yes, speak quickly!" The others urged again and again.

"Come on, wait for me to have a sip of wine. In fact, you don't have to be too sorry. In a few days, brother Huang Kang will compile the grand occasion of last night into a book, and then everyone will have a chance to feast their eyes on it." Brother took a sip of wine and sighed, "It's just that I still can't see the white-haired ghost. I sent ten invitations to Tingyu Tower this morning, but I didn't get a reply. What a pity, what a pity, if I can meet the white-haired ghost It's a joy in life to have a drink with ghosts!"

When he said this, a young man couldn't help but look back at the counter where the gambling game was being handled, and then smiled a little strangely, thinking secretly, if he knew that the white-haired ghost was by his side , but completely unrecognizable, how does it feel?

This person was naturally Gu Yue'an.

He returned to Tingyu Building with Xie Yuliu last night, and immediately went back to his room to rest. After all, he also suffered serious internal injuries, but he was not very willing to use his practice points, so he slept overnight to see.

When he woke up the next day, although his body was still a little strange, the ruptured wounds on the surface of his body were almost healed.

After washing his face and drawing his knife, he went out to buy breakfast.

By the way, Gu Yue'an also came to the Gold Sales Building to collect the winning money.

That's right, he also placed a bet that he and Xie Yuliu could complete Hades Post.

Probably from the time when he was recruiting relatives in the martial arts competition in Chen Gongfu, he had the habit of betting on himself to win in advance.

It's not that he's short of money, it's just that he's looking for a bit of illusory luck, or some sort of ritual.

It's like betting on yourself to win, you will definitely succeed.

People who lick blood on the edge of a knife all the year round are always superstitious. Gu Yue'an always scoffed at this kind of description before, and insisted that if a person can face death directly, then it is impossible for him to be timid enough to rely on others. Something ethereal to boost confidence.

But this is not the case, the closer one is to death, the more one needs something invisible and intangible as a backing.

Although Gu Yue'an didn't need these things as a backing, but once the habit was formed, there was no way to change it.

Habit is sometimes a kind of superstition.

Just like the killer in a certain novel that Gu Yuean once read, before accepting an order to kill someone, he would always buy a lottery ticket. If the amount won was large enough, he would accept the order, no matter how difficult the order was , because he is lucky enough to be unscrupulous, if the amount in the winning is small, he will give up.

Confidence is a very important thing.

However, after what happened last night, Gu Yue'an's confidence has reached an extremely high level, he doesn't need any foreign objects at all.

Just get used to it.

Putting the heavy ten pieces of gold leaves specially made by Shenji, the No. 10 Bank in the World, which represented [-] taels of silver, into her bosom, Gu Yuean returned to Tingyu Tower.

When they returned to the small courtyard, Xie Yuliu also got up and was standing in the gazebo, not knowing whether he was admiring the residual lotus or just in a daze.

Gu Yue'an walked straight over, took out five gold leaves from her arms, put them in front of him, and said, "Your portion."

Xie Yuliu looked at him suspiciously, not knowing why.

"Yesterday I bet that we can win, and we can succeed in the end, and you have put in a lot of effort." Gu Yue'an explained, and then said without waiting for Xie Yuliu's rebuttal, "Even if you don't need the money now, there will always be somewhere in the future What you want to use is... a little apology from me?"

Xie Yuliu looked at him.

In fact, it should be said that Xie Yuliu recognized him when the knife was launched last night. After all, he had fought against him before, so it would be a bit fake not to recognize him again.

Later, Xie Yuliu didn't say anything, and he had been concentrating on fighting side by side with Gu Yue'an. In the end, he didn't leave, but drew his sword. Apart from the swordsman's dignity, he didn't care too much about the grievances between Gu Yue'an and him. This kind of demeanor is admirable enough.

Therefore, Gu Yue'an felt more and more guilty. Although there was no way to do it at the beginning, it almost ruined someone else's life.

"Back then..." Gu Yue'an glanced at Xie Yuliu's right hand.

"A sword has no eyes." Xie Yuliu interrupted him first.

"You don't blame me?"

Xie Yuliu also glanced at his right hand and said, "One day, we will fight again."

After finishing speaking, he got up and left, but Jin Yezi accepted it.
