Start by summoning Black Death Mou

Chapter 195 Kaomoji

While thinking about this, Gu Yu wrapped the silk thread around the neck of the warrior surnamed Yue.

The martial artist was about to shout, when he felt the sharpness on his neck, he closed his mouth immediately.

Gu Yu smiled and said:
"Uncle, in front of me, you'd better be more polite, otherwise... your head will fall off."

"you……"

Yue's identity as a martial artist trembled, but his life was under the control of others, so he couldn't say anything, so he could only stare at Gu Yu.

On the other hand, King Bian coughed twice and said:

"This... Zhen... Miss Zhen..."

"My surname is Gu now."

"Okay, Ms. Gu, Yue Qing is just outspoken, and asked Ms. Gu to spare his life. Now I am waiting in this strange and unpredictable place. One more person means more strength, doesn't it?"

King Bian spoke softly, both his attitude and words made people feel comfortable.

Although Gu Yu is not someone who cares about these things, since everyone has already given in, Gu Yu is not really crazy enough to kill Yue Qing.

Lifting his fingers slightly, the silk thread wrapped around Yue Qing's neck was removed, Gu Yu squinted his eyes and smiled:
"Uncle, be more careful next time, or I will cut your body into five pieces."

"you……"

"Yue Qing!"

The strong man named Yue Qing was about to say something angrily, but Wang Bian at the side stopped him in time.

Yue Qing said rather displeased:

"Your Highness, this person is so rude. If Your Highness lets her wait with me, I'm afraid she will be wronged."

"If you are wronged, then you will be wronged..." Bian Wang said indifferently, and then asked Gu Yu:

"Miss Gu, let's take the liberty to ask, do you know how you got here?"

"I don't know, I came here in a daze. I also want to ask you, one of you is in Ningzhou and the other is in Bianzhou. Why did you all come here?"

Gu Yu blinked and asked.

She spoke casually, and she didn't pretend to be knowledgeable and reasonable in front of Zhang Shouchen at all, which made Zhang Shouchen on the side even more stunned.

Regardless of why Gu Yu's head fell to the ground, Zhang Shouchen was in a daze for a long time just because of this change in attitude.

Now Zhang Shouchen could see clearly that everything that Gu Yu showed to him before was just a disguise, but he didn't know why she did it.

After listening to Gu Yu's words, King Bian pondered, and then Liu Yuan took this opportunity to ask Gu Yu:
"Zhen...Miss Gu, I still want to ask why you are here? Where did you go after the accident happened in the Zhen family?"

"This one, you guessed it."

Gu Yu asked back with a smile, making the corner of Liu Yuan's mouth twitch.

Guess?
If Liu Yuan can guess it, why not ask Gu Yu?

Seeing Gu Yu looking at him with a playful expression, Liu Yuan shook his head helplessly, and stopped asking, but looked at Zhang Shouchen at the side, and asked:

"This young hero is...?"

Zhang Shouchen, who had weak legs, stood up straight while supporting the wall:
"I'm... I'm Zhang Shouchen, Juexin Medical Palace, I met Liu Butou, and...His Royal Highness King Bian."

After Gu Yu's intimidation just now, Zhang Shouchen's mentality was a little bit better at the moment. He did not expose Gu Yu's identity, but tried his best to return to his usual salute to several people.

Liu Yuan frowned: "A disciple of Juexin Medical Palace?"

"Juexin Medical Palace..." Bian Wang pondered, then suddenly raised his head and asked: "Zhang Shaoxia will appear here, but because of the great epidemic in Yuezhou?"

"Exactly, Your Highness...do you know about Yuezhou?"

Zhang Shouchen asked in doubt.

Liu Yuan on the side frowned even tighter: "Yuezhou...Yuezhou..."

"That's right, this must be where my brother made it."

But King Bian confirmed something at this moment, and said very firmly.

Everyone looked at him, and King Bian replied:

"Bianzhou, Ningzhou, and Yuezhou... These three states are centered on the imperial city, and they are located in the north, south, and west. If we can meet people from Shuzhou in the east and people from the capital of Zhongzhou, then we will wait for you." At once……"

"Your Highness!!"

Before King Bian finished speaking, another voice came from afar.

Gu Yu turned his head to look, but saw Zheng Hong in the distance walking over with a Pinghu Sibutou wearing a strange treasure on his head.

Zheng Hong, who rushed over quickly, was stunned when he saw Gu Yu and Zhang Shouchen, but he didn't immediately ask their identities, but directly said to Wang Bian:

"Your Highness! This is Zhu Tuzhu, the guardian envoy of Pinghu Division. He...he is from Jingzhou!"

As soon as Bian Wang heard this, the doubts he still had at first dissipated in an instant, and turned into convictions.

He said solemnly:
"Have the people from Jingzhou really come? If that's the case...my brother's arrangements should have come to an end."

"Hey, what do you know? Just tell me quickly."

Hearing what King Bian said, Gu Yu couldn't help urging.

As a subordinate of King Bian, although Yue Qing would not provoke Gu Yu because of King Bian's order, he would fight for his master's injustice.

He frowned and said:

"No matter how you say it, Your Highness is still a prince, can you..."

"Do you want to die?"

Gu Yu's face turned cold in an instant, and the speed of this face change shocked everyone around him.

Yue Qing hesitated when he heard the words, and then his face was full of anger. He was about to speak, but King Bian stopped him in time and said:

"Yue Qing, it's alright, there is no such thing as His Royal Highness Bian Wang at this time, Miss Gu said bluntly, whatever she wants to say is her business, don't worry about it."

"But, Your Highness..."

"Or, do you really want to die?"

Bian Wang interrupted Yue Qing who wanted to say something.

Yue Qing was stunned, he glanced at Bian Wang who had a worried expression on his face, then at Gu Yu who had slightly raised the corners of his mouth, and stopped talking immediately.

Hearing what King Bian said, Gu Yu approached King Bian curiously and asked:

"You are stronger than this brat, can you see that I have the ability to kill you all?"

"...Miss Gu is serious, I just...see 'farther', let's not mention this, since Miss Gu asked me what I know, then I will not hide it now, yes, I do know a lot.

"I'm also very clear about my brother's arrangement in the four states, and if I'm right, the means arranged by the emperor's brother in the four states are all for this place."

"So what exactly is this place?"

Gu Yu asked curiously.

King Bian paused, and said word by word:
"This is the imperial brother's... Immortal Kingdom."

……

Capital Gufu.

Outside the small courtyard of the Gu family, Gu Chen, who was looking at the pencil in his hand, suddenly heard Gu Chengye's voice from outside:
"Ning Shun, do you have time today?"

"?"

Gu Chengye's arrival surprised Gu Chen.

In the past, it was either Gu Qiyuan or Zhao Muqiu who came to look for Gu Chen, why did Gu Chengye have time to look for him today?
Although he was puzzled in his heart, Gu Chen did not delay.

He put down the pencil in his hand and greeted Gu Chengye who came in.

"Father, why do you have time to come to my small courtyard today?"

Gu Chen asked with a smile on his face.

Gu Chengye replied:
"There is something I forgot, you should clean up first, and go to Pinghu Division with me later."

"Pinghu Division?"

Gu Chen frowned: "What are you doing there?"

"You go to ask for a prophecy, this is something that the prime minister told you."

Gu Chengye was speaking, but Gu Chen couldn't help being stunned by these words:

"prophecy?"

prophecy?There is such a thing in this world?Why has Gu Chen never heard of it before?

Seeing Gu Chen's astonished look, Gu Chengye couldn't help laughing and said:
"I haven't heard of it. In fact, I haven't heard of it before the prime minister told me about it... Okay, clean up first, and I'll tell you on the way."

Gu Chengye looked a little anxious, but Gu Chen didn't delay, his curiosity about the prophecy made Gu Chen move a lot faster.

He quickly put on his coat, and went out with Gu Chengye with Jiebiao Danxi.

After getting into the carriage, Gu Chen asked Gu Chengye again:
"What's the matter with this prophecy?"

Gu Chengye said:
"There is a strange treasure in the Pinghu Division, called the Heavenly Secret Jade Box. Thinking about what to do in front of it, it will spit out a note. There will be some predictions about the future on the note. Sometimes it is accurate, sometimes it is not accurate. What I want to show you today is the jade box of that day."

Gu Chengye told the function of the Heavenly Secret Jade Box, Gu Chen felt a little funny, and said:
"Father, since there are accurate predictions and inaccurate ones, how do you judge which one is accurate? Which one is inaccurate?"

"Simple, predict a few more times, and then find similarities, that is basically an accurate prediction."

"..."

Gu Chen fell silent.

Gu Chengye's method... can't be said to be completely useless.

Just hearing what Gu Chengye said, Gu Chen doubted the accuracy of this prophecy, after all, predicting the future is a bit illusory.

No one can accurately say what will happen in the future, even if you really know, but from the moment you know, the future is likely to change.

Gu Chen doesn't know if there is a theory of destiny in this world, but Gu Chen doesn't believe it anyway, and he is even more skeptical about this prophecy.

It's just that Gu Chengye seems to believe in this prophecy. Seeing Gu Chen's dubious look, Gu Chengye smiled and said:
"I know you don't believe it. In fact, I didn't believe it at first, but the Prime Minister believed it, and if it wasn't for the prophecy of the jade box, I wouldn't have met you."

"Oh? What do you mean by that?"

Gu Chengye smiled, took out a note from his pocket, and handed it to Gu Chen:
"It is because of this prophecy that I want to help you."

Gu Chen took the note from Gu Chengye's hand suspiciously, and opened it to read.

There are eight large characters on it.

Those who help the dust live, those who oppose the dust die.

"..."

Seeing these somewhat arrogant words, Gu Chen calmed down. He stared blankly at the words on the note, recalled everything when he and Gu Chengye first met, and suddenly understood something.

When Gu Chengye went to Dan'an City, he almost spared no effort to help Gu Chen.

He was accepted as a adopted son, and the property of the Gu family in Dan'an City was handed over to him.

For an illegitimate child of a branch family, this kind of treatment is obviously unreasonable, but Gu Chengye just did this, and he hasn't told Gu Chen what he wants in return.

Even after this, Gu Jixiu personally took Gu Chen's name, making Gu Chen's identity jump three levels in a row.

From an illegitimate child with a low status to the young master Ning Shun who was favored by the prime minister.

Whether it's the Gu family in Ningzhou or the Gu family in Beijing, they all treat Gu Chen very politely.

Gu Chen had never figured out what was going on, but today the truth came to light.

It was because of this prophecy.

Thinking of this, Gu Chen became a little curious about the prophecy.

The content of this prophecy cannot be wrong. After all, Gu Chen had already summoned Hei Si Mou. If Gu Chengye was really against Gu Chen, then I believe that Gu Chengye would die there before he left Dan'an.

So from this point of view, the content of this note is quite correct.

If you help Gu Chen, you will survive. On the contrary, if you fight against Gu Chen, you will die faster than anyone else.

Gu Chen was looking at the note, and Gu Chengye was also looking at Gu Chen's expression.

After a while, Gu Chen noticed Gu Chengye's gaze, smiled and handed the note back:
"Do you believe this prophecy? If you hadn't helped me then, I wouldn't have done anything against you."

It's one thing for Gu Chen to be able to kill Gu Chengye, but another to admit it in front of Gu Chengye.

At this moment, Gu Chen still had to pretend.

Gu Chengye put away the note and said:

"Cheng believes it, I believe it, and judging from my original choice, at least I didn't make a wrong choice, Ning Shun, you are indeed very good, no one can get to where you are today in just one year. "

"That's still thanks to the care of the foster father and the prime minister."

Gu Chen replied politely.

Gu Chen was able to change from an illegitimate child who was not seen by anyone to Gu Ningshun who can freely enter and leave the palace in just over a year. strength.

Without these two people, Gu Chen might be able to reach the current level, but it would definitely take more time than this.

Gu Chengye smiled and said:
"Even if we take care of it, it is your ability, which proves that this prophecy still has some merits."

"makes sense."

Gu Chengye has said so, if Gu Chen is more humble, he will not give the other side face.

He responded with a smile, and became somewhat interested in the jade box of heavenly secrets that could make predictions.

But with a smile, the smile on Gu Chen's face suddenly disappeared. He seemed to have remembered something, and suddenly turned his head and asked:

"...Father, when did this prophecy happen?"

"Huh? When?"

Gu Chengye thought about it carefully, and said:
"Before I left the capital, when I went to work for the Gu family in Ningzhou, was there a problem?"

"No...no problem, when foster father went to Ningzhou, he probably didn't go to Dan'an right away, right?"

"No, in order to find the meaning of the word 'dust', I stayed in Dan'an City for a while, and then I went to Dan'an for the examination, and then I met you."

Gu Chengye recalled and said.

After Gu Chen heard Gu Chengye's words, he felt a little chilly in his body.

His breathing became slightly rapid, and the thoughts in his head were running at a high speed.

The prophecy was obtained by Gu Chengye when he was in the capital, and even without counting the distance between the capital and Ningzhou, Gu Chengye stayed in Ningzhou for at least half a month.

When Gu Chen traveled back then, to the time when Gu's family was wiped out, and then to seeing Gu Chengye, the period of time probably didn't even last a week.

In other words... the prophecy that Gu Chengye sought was before Gu Chen came here through time travel.

But at that time, Gu Chen was really just an illegitimate child who was disliked by no one and had no rights in his hands!

Anyone can bully, even if Gu Chen hadn't come here through time travel, Gu Chen would have died at that time and couldn't die anymore!

How can such a person live up to the prophecy that "those who help the dust live, and those who oppose the dust die"? !
So either the prophecy was wrong and the person Gu Chengye was looking for was not Gu Chen at all, or...

It was that day that the secret jade box even counted Gu Chen's time travel.

If it's the former, it's okay, but if it's the latter...

"Ning Shun?"

"what?"

Gu Chen, who was in deep thought, heard Gu Chengye's voice, he raised his head to look at Gu Chengye without realizing it, but saw Gu Chengye asked worriedly:

"What's wrong with you? You don't look good, are you feeling unwell?"

"No...it's okay, probably...didn't sleep well last night..."

"That's it... then you can take a rest, we are still some distance away from Pinghu Division."

Gu Chengye didn't ask any more questions, although Gu Chen didn't look like he didn't have a good rest, but since he said so, Gu Chengye chose to believe it.

He softly persuaded Gu Chen to have a good rest, and then stopped talking.

Gu Chen nodded, sat aside and closed his eyes, looking like he was resting, but his mind was already in a mess.

Gu Chengye's behavior, as well as the things he has experienced all the time, made Gu Chen realize that the prediction made by the Tianji Jade Box is very likely to be correct.

But it was precisely because of this that Gu Chen felt terrified.

Because if the Tianji jade box is correct, then it knew of Gu Chen's existence long before Gu Chen crossed over, knew that Gu Chen would become Gu Chen, knew that Gu Chen would summon a strong man.

He also knew that Gu Chen had the power to kill all those who visited Gu's family at that time.

The significance of this is frightening, it means that everything Gu Chen is experiencing now may be under the prediction of the jade box that day.

So is Gu Chen acting for himself, or following the trajectory predicted by the jade box of secrets?

Did the Tianji Jade Box really see the future and tell Gu Chengye these things, or did the Tianji Jade Box predict Gu Chen's future first?
When it comes to time, time travel, and the future, Gu Chen becomes extremely nervous.

But at the same time, Gu Chen still had some expectations in his heart.

He was looking forward to the secret jade box to give him an answer, and even hoped that the jade box of secrets would allow him to return to his own world.

After all, Gu Chen still doesn't like this world, even though he now has great power and power.

But the precarious life, the weird and unpredictable power system, and Emperor Qi'an who made people unable to see the means clearly made Gu Chen feel uneasy.

Gu Chen still wanted to go back, back to the prosperous world where he had his real family, and he didn't have to worry about being killed at any time, and he didn't have to worry about encountering weird disasters.

He misses everything about modern society.

So if the Heavenly Secret Jade Box is really powerful, then Gu Chen may be able to find a way to return to the real world from it.

Gu Chen was looking forward to it.

Nervousness, fear and anticipation were mixed together. Amid wild thoughts, Gu Chengye stopped the carriage and said to Gu Chen:
"We're here, you don't have to worry about anything from now on, just listen to me."

"Ah."

Gu Chen nodded, and got out of the carriage with Gu Chengye.

Gu Chengye seems to have been here many times, and he is already familiar with this place.

He skillfully handed over the jade token to the guards, and under the guidance of the guards, he walked through the gates one after another, and finally came to the place where the strange treasures were stored inside the Tiangong Workshop.

Then the guard stopped in front of a door and said to the two behind him:

"You should all be aware of the rules. Only one person can enter at a time, and you can only stay for a stick of incense at most. After the time of a stick of incense is over, you have to exit no matter what."

"We all understand the rules, okay Ning Shun, you go in."

Gu Chengye patted Gu Chen's shoulder and said with a soft smile.

With a serious expression on his face, Gu Chen nodded to Gu Chengye, walked into the room in front of him where the secret jade box was stored.

In the empty room, a sapphire square box was placed on the only platform in the room.

That should be the Heavenly Mystery Jade Box.

Gu Chen recalled what Gu Chengye had taught him, walked up to the Heavenly Secret Jade Box, and thought about what he needed to know in a complicated mood.

Gu Chengye told Gu Chen that if he wanted the Heavenly Secret Jade Box to give him a prediction, he had to close his eyes and think about what he wanted to know.

After waiting for a while, the jade box popped out of the inner box, and the note inside the box was a prediction of the future.

Gu Chen did so, but what Gu Chen didn't expect was that he had just closed his eyes, and before he could think about what he wanted to know, the jade box in front of him popped out of his inner box with a bang.

Inside the box, there is a thin note.

"?"

Gu Chen who heard the voice was stunned, he was a little surprised why this was different from what Gu Chengye said.

But after thinking about it, Gu Chen still stretched out his hand to pick up the note to see what it said.

As a result, at the first sight, Gu Chen's heart stopped beating for half a beat.

"Yo, it's finally here? Welcome! (*｀*)ノ!"

"?"

Gu Chen rubbed his eyes, he looked at the clearly punctuated font on it, and the emoji at the end, convinced that it was not his hallucination.

The ones on it... are indeed kaomoji.
