Chapter 39 Give Me a Knife
Liu Yuan hugged Gu Chen and ran towards the yamen at high speed. Because Gu Chen was still young, sickly, and light, Liu Yuan took him to run without any effort, and the speed did not slow down compared to usual.

But even so, Liu Yuan was still chased by the two people behind him.

After all, Liu Yuan's martial arts has not yet reached the strength of the title level, and although the two behind him have no titles, in Gu Chen's view, they are already close to the peak of the title level.

In terms of fantasy, it is probably at the level of a half-step master.

"Liu Butou, run over there."

Seeing that Liu Yuan was about to be chased, Gu Chen pointed to an alley not far away.

Without hesitation, Liu Yuan reversed his footsteps and dodged into the alley.

The interior of the alley extends in all directions, and it is very easy for non-locals to get lost walking here. It just so happens that Liu Yuan has lived here for more than ten years, and he has been to this alley more than once. If he is here, he wants to get rid of the two behind him. Nothing difficult.

only…

"Cough cough..."

On the way to run, Gu Chen couldn't help coughing a few times, Liu Yuan was startled, his steps slowed down instantly and asked:

"Is the wound involved?"

"It's okay... Liu Butou doesn't need to worry about me, cough..."

As Gu Chen spoke, he coughed and then stopped. From the perspective of outsiders, it seemed like he was suppressing his own pain.

This performance really made Liu Yuan struggle a bit, he gritted his teeth and said to Gu Chen:

"Young Master Gu, be patient for a while longer!"

After speaking, Liu Yuan started to run at full speed again, shuttled in the alley, trying to get rid of the few people who were chasing him.

Gu Chen looked resolute on the surface, but in fact his heart was full of playfulness.

Gu Chen has already investigated Liu Yuan's situation. Fortunately, Liu Yuan doesn't like men, he has no such interest.

The reason why he has such an attitude towards Gu Chen is because Liu Yuan used to have a younger sister who died of illness.

According to the information from the film investigation, Liu Yuan's younger sister died when Liu Yuan was 16 years old. At that time, Liu Yuan's younger sister was 13 years old, the same age as Gu Chen.

Before Liu Yuan's younger sister passed away, his younger sister's behavior was mostly similar to Gu Chen's, she smiled kindly at everyone, her delicate body would often cough, and sometimes she would even cough up blood.

This continued until her death.

Based on the analysis of these situations, it is not difficult to guess the reason why Liu Yuan has such an attitude towards Gu Chen.

He obviously saw the shadow of his sister in Gu Chen, out of his own instinct and the guilt of not being able to take good care of his sister, he took such care of Gu Chen.

This is a good thing for Gu Chen. Liu Yuan, who has such shortcomings, is easily controlled by Gu Chen, and it is easier to protect Gu Chen desperately, just like he is doing now.

Liu Yuan took Gu Chen back and forth in the alley, trying to escape the pursuit of those two people

However, what Liu Yuan didn't expect was that even though he had tried his best to circle the alley, he was still blocked at the exit of the alley by one of them in the end.

In the narrow alley, two guards brought by a middle-aged man blocked Liu Yuan's way one after the other. Seeing this, Liu Yuan felt gloomy. He put Gu Chen down to protect him, and drew out the long knife at his waist to look at the two. man, said:
"You two...you should be very clear that what you want is not in our hands."

Gu Chen said that Jade Guanyin has been lost, Liu Yuan believed in Gu Chen, and Zheng Hong also believed in Gu Chen on this point. After all, Gu Chen didn't know the particularity of Jade Guanyin, so he had no reason to hide it.

And if Gu Chen really concealed something, the black-robed man from last time would not let him go so easily.

Now that the jade pendant is no longer on Gu Chen, it doesn't make sense for these people to continue chasing the two of them.

"It's up to you, not what you say."

Among the two pursuers, one of them said coldly.

Another person echoed the same voice: "That's right, give me the kid next to you, and we promise not to kill you."

"... "

Liu Yuan clenched the knife in his hand, feeling even more gloomy in his heart.

If you want to hand over Gu Chen, Liu Yuan will definitely not do this, but if you really want to fight, you are definitely not the opponent of the two of them, let alone protect Gu Chen...

Liu Yuan was struggling in his heart, but suddenly felt someone tugging on his clothes, looking back, it was Gu Chen, who was pale but had firm eyes, looking straight at him, and asked word by word:
"Liu Butou, can I trust you?"

"what?"

Liu Yuan didn't understand why Gu Chen asked such a question at this time, before waiting for an answer, he heard Gu Chen continue to ask:

"And... can you trust me?"

"I…"

Liu Butou didn't know the meaning of Gu Chen's asking these questions. Liu Yuan naturally trusted Gu Chen. Although he hadn't met him a few times, this sick and kind boy like his sister had already gained his trust.

But now is not the time to discuss these issues. Now that the enemy is in front of us, isn't it a bit inappropriate to discuss the issue of trust?
Liu Yuan didn't know what to say, but soon he heard Gu Chen say:
"If Butou Liu trusts me, please give me a short knife, and I will deal with one of them."

"what?!"

Liu Yuan was taken aback, his first reaction when he heard this sentence was to refuse.

Are you kidding me? Gu Chen's body is weak and his old injuries haven't healed. He coughs non-stop after doing some strenuous exercise. Even if he did master some special inner breath exercises, they are only for health preservation and not suitable at all. fighting.

But now he wants to take the initiative to fight with others, isn't this like throwing himself into a trap!
"There's no time, Catcher Liu, you can only choose to trust me now, otherwise...we're all going to die here today!"

Gu Chen didn't give Liu Yuan time to react at all, he looked at the few people who were slowly approaching, and spoke very fast.

Liu Yuan looked at Gu Chen, looked at the pair of eyes showing a firm gaze, the figure of the deceased sister in sight overlapped with the person in front of him.

Opening his mouth, Liu Yuan could no longer utter the words of refusal. He gritted his teeth and took out the spare dagger in his arms and handed it to Gu Chen, saying:

"Okay, I believe you!"

Holding the spare short knife in his hand, Gu Chen weighed the weight of the short knife, then pulled out the short knife and threw the scabbard aside, standing behind Liu Yuan with both hands holding the knife, facing one of the enemies.

While paying attention to Gu Chen's movements, Liu Yuan looked at the enemy directly opposite. The two faced each other with their backs facing each other.

"Ah."

The person directly opposite Gu Chen let out a mocking laugh.

Warriors in this world are very scientific in a certain sense. Most of their internal energy is exercised through physical changes. Only a small number of health-preserving exercises can directly cultivate internal energy.

But this kind of health preservation method is not suitable for fighting.

Therefore, the stronger the warrior, the more obvious the muscles on his body. Basically, the general strength of a person can be seen clearly from the outside of a person.

But right now, Gu Chen's body is fragile at first glance, and the arms that are exposed are even whiter and slender than his daughter's, how can such a person have such a strong strength.

It's no wonder that the enemy in front of him laughed at Gu Chen, because Gu Chen really didn't look like a martial arts practitioner.
