Chapter 25 The Killer in the Woods

When Gu Lingyan woke up in the morning, she saw Yang Qing's personal maid, Xi Ya, waiting outside the door, holding a large plate of heavy things in her hand.

"Second Miss, this is the key and account book that Aunt Qing asked me to send." Xi Ya's voice was trembling, she had seen the scene of Gu Lingyan running to find Yang Qing yesterday.

"You put them on my desk." Gu Lingyan said lightly.

"Yes." Xiya lowered her head, and carefully placed the things in her hands on Gu Lingyan's desk.Before leaving, she glanced at Gu Rongshu who was sitting by the dressing table in a daze, but she didn't dare to make a sound, and went straight to go out.

"Wait." Gu Lingyan called Xi Ya coldly.

Xiya stopped in her tracks.

"What's going on with your Aunt Qing now!"

"Back to the second lady, Aunt Qing had diarrhea all night last night, and she was lying in bed this morning and couldn't get up."

Gu Lingyan sneered in satisfaction, "Let's go!"

"Yes, Second Miss." Xiya turned around and left Gu Lingyan's room quickly.

Gu Lingyan and Gu Rongshu had breakfast in the room, she saw Gu Rongshu wolfing down his breakfast, and felt a pang of sadness in her heart.

Thinking about how Gu Rongshu got here all these years, the original owner Gu Lingyan died because of Yang Qing and Gu Lianshuang. If she hadn't transmigrated into this body, the original owner might have turned into a The ashes turned into fertilizer.

Gu Lingyan looked at the keys and ledger on the table, she called Hong Yu and asked her to find Steward Liu.

After a while, Steward Liu arrived at Gu Lingyan's room, and Gu Lingyan politely offered him his seat.

If Steward Liu hadn't saved her back then, her little life would have been lost, let alone the experience of studying art in Yulin Mountain in the past few years.

Gu Lingyan ordered Hongyu to hand over the key and ledger to Butler Liu, but Butler Liu didn't dare to take it.

"Isn't Aunt Qing always in charge of this house?" Butler Liu was full of doubts. Although he hated Aunt Qing very much, no matter what, she was the master of the house.

Gu Lingyan looked at Gu Rongshu who was sitting stupidly on the side, and she said angrily: "Then Yang Qing treats the eldest grandson of the general's mansion like this, do you dare to ask her if she is still qualified to be this family? I heard It is said that the income and expenditure of the General's Mansion have never been balanced. I don't think she can manage these accounts without knowing a single word. So, Steward Liu, please don't shirk. I know that you have been in the mansion for decades and have always been loyal. No one else can do it except you."

Butler Liu still had a worried look on his face, "But I'm not the master of the family, how can I be qualified?"

Gu Lingyan smiled indifferently: "There are no males in this family anymore, so there is no master or master, as long as they can live a smooth life, that's fine."

Liu Butler saw that he said so, so he didn't evade any more.

In fact, many years ago, he was in charge of these keys and ledgers, and it was later that Aunt Qing had to be in charge of the house, so he handed over the keys and ledgers to Aunt Qing.

After breakfast, the doorkeeper's servant came to report that someone was looking for him.

Gu Lingyan knew that it was Wang Mo who came to pick her up to help Yunniang diagnose her illness.

Before going out, she was worried about Qiuliu, fearing that Yang Qing would poison Gu Rongshu, so she left Hong Yu in the mansion to take care of Gu Rongshu.

Outside the gate of the mansion, the chic carriage was parked firmly.

Gu Lingyan held up her skirt and got on the carriage, only to see that Wang Mo was still looking at her with an extremely elegant appearance, with a slight smile on his lips, making people look like a spring breeze.

"Second Miss is not looking very well today!" Zhu Limo said with a faint smile, waving the jade fan in his hand.

Gu Lingyan snorted and laughed, "You are quite observant. Miss Ben encountered many troubles yesterday, so she didn't sleep well."

When Zhu Limo heard what Gu Lingyan said, his heart suddenly ached. Could it be that this little girl has been bullied?

Gu Lingyan was opening the cloth window at this time, looking out of the carriage, totally unaware of the cloudy change on Zhu Limo's face.

Just when the carriage was driving on a secluded path, suddenly the carriage shook violently, the tall and handsome horse raised its front hooves, and after a sharp neighing sound, the carriage began to roll over.

At this moment, Gu Lingyan only felt a tightness in her waist, and then she was carried by Zhu Limo's slender arms and rushed out of the roof of the carriage, and then slowly landed on the ground.

After a loud bang, the horse rolled over.

Seeing that Fuyun jumped out of the carriage at some point, Gu Lingyan rushed to Zhu Limo, clasped his hands and asked, "My lord, are you alright?"

Zhu Limo frowned and shook his head: "I'm fine, what happened?"

Fuyun looked sideways at the horse that rolled on the ground, and said: "The horse's belly has been stabbed by a sword, it seems that someone has cast a dark sword." After saying that, Fuyun looked towards the surrounding woods.

Gu Lingyan also looked around, and saw dense forests on both sides, and the trail in the middle was very easy to get caught.

Zhu Limo quietly moved his steps, putting Gu Lingyan between him and Fuyun.

Gu Lingyan felt his action, and felt an inexplicable warmth in his heart.She didn't expect this stingy iron cock to know how to protect him.

Under the golden sunlight, Zhu Limo's star-like eyes were frowned, and he looked at the woods on both sides.

There was silence all around, only the sound of the breeze blowing the leaves, coupled with a few birdsong and insects, it seemed that the air was stagnant.

Gu Lingyan was wondering in his mind, who is this killer targeting?
She, or him?
If it was her, it must be Yang Qing, because now the person who wants to kill her the most is Yang Qing.

Shhhhhhhhh

Suddenly, a violent arrow rain hit them.

Zhu Limo raised his slender arms, stretched out the purple robe on his body, and all the arrows surrounding him were drawn into the robe, and he turned around beautifully, and the arrows in the robe flew back and forth one by one with great force. direction to shoot.

At this time, only screams were heard in the woods.

The rain of arrows was still fierce, Gu Lingyan and Fuyun waved their hands to block the arrows.

Gu Lingyan did not expect that Fuyun was also a master, and his internal strength was also superior to hers.

She had a feeling that this Wang Mo was not simple.

After a quarter of an hour, the rain of arrows stopped, the air stagnated again, and the surrounding area was dead silent.

After a while, they all heard someone in the woods shouting a word: "Zhe!"

Immediately afterwards, the figure in the woods swayed, and soon disappeared.

Fuyun looked at those people who had disappeared, and asked Zhu Limo, "Young master, they ran away, should we go after them?"

Zhuli Moyu shook his fan and said, "Don't chase after me."

Gu Lingyan looked up at his calm expression. Under the sunlight, his stunning figure existed like a god.

Her heart suddenly beat wildly.

What's wrong with this?
"Let's go!" Zhuli Moyu put away his fan, put his hands behind his back, and walked up the path leisurely.

Gu Lingyan and Fuyun followed closely behind.

Fu Yun carefully looked at the arrow in his hand while walking, after watching for a while, he caught up with Zhu Limo, and said to Zhu Limo: "My lord, there is a word 'wind' engraved on this arrow."

Zhu Limo paused, his handsome eyes fell on the arrow in Fuyun's hand.

"The wind can make people from the Fenglei Hall attack, and it seems that it is coming for me." Zhu Limo looked away, and walked again with shaky steps.

Gu Lingyan thought that these killers were all after her, but it turned out that they were after Wang Mo.

She took a step forward, took the arrow in Fuyun's hand, and asked, "What kind of underworld organization is Fengleitang?"

"Underworld?" Fu Yun expressed his incomprehension to this new word.

Gu Lingyan smiled inwardly, remembering that the gangs of the ancients were not called gangsters, they were usually called gangs or religions.

"I mean, what does Fenglei Hall do?" Gu Lingyan didn't want to explain the underworld to Fuyun.

Fuyun said: "Fengleitang is a very powerful evil sect in Tianchen Kingdom. It specializes in killing people and stealing goods. Its methods are cruel and it does all kinds of evil."

"So bad?" Gu Lingyan asked Zhu Limo again, "Then who did you offend? You actually sent so many people to kill you."

Zhu Limo shook his head and said flatly, "I don't know."

I don't know?Gu Lingyan saw a complex expression on his handsome face when he said these two words.

Generally, if you have offended someone, you will always know something, how could you not know it at all, it seems that this Wang Mo hides it quite deeply.
