Chapter 212 He's Missing



"You must master these thirty-six acupuncture points and attack the enemy when they are unprepared. Otherwise, you should strike first and seize the opportunity to defeat the enemy without bloodshed."

Sweeping away their previous carelessness, the five of them were now extremely alert, wishing they had more ears.

In the following days, Gu Lingze talked about other vital parts of the human body, such as joints, ganglia and sinuses.

Now they understood why Li Gaozhuo's veins bulged in pain that day, but when he came back to apply medicine, except for his face which was swollen like a pig's head, there was not even a trace of bruise on the rest of his body.

Li Gaozhuo also understood the three things Gu Lingze said that day, and none of them wronged him.

Since the first day of class, these people began to admire Gu Lingze from the bottom of their hearts, instead of just thinking that he was awesome.

They also haven't forgotten that Third Young Master Gu has more than just these abilities. Just the various mysterious methods he used in the battle in the palace that day were so mysterious that no one would believe it if they didn't see it with their own eyes.

Gu Lingze calculated that he had been here for six or seven days, and it was time to go home. However, when he thought about parting with Zhao Chengmo, he felt reluctant.

He thought of the famous saying that has been passed down through the ages, "If love between two people lasts for a long time, why should they be together day and night?" Thinking about it now, he felt that it was not right.

Why is it said that as long as two people truly love each other, they don’t have to care whether they can be together every day?

He clearly cared deeply and just wanted to see his lover's face every day.

"I'll wait for you at home." After saying that, Gu Lingze kissed Zhao Chengmo lightly on the lips, turned around and walked out without giving himself a chance to look back.

Zhao Chengmo felt the remaining warmth on his lips, and his eyes were filled with obscure emotions.

When Gu Lingze returned to the general's mansion, he saw Aunt Tao sitting in the main hall talking to Xie Qingwan.

"Lingze is back." They all knew that Gu Lingze went to Zhao Chengmo, so they were naturally not worried.

Mother Zhang brought him a cup of tea. Gu Lingze looked at the petitions in the two people's hands and asked, "Mom, what are you and Auntie looking at?" After saying that, he picked up the teacup and took a sip.

"Sister Tao asked me to help her choose a marriage for Mingyan."

puff--

"Cough, cough, cough." Gu Lingze wiped it randomly, "To, to whom?"

The two looked at him in confusion, "Give it to Mingyan, your brother Xu."

Gu Lingze felt a sharp pain on his forehead. He cleared his throat and asked tentatively, "Is it...Brother Xu who asked for it?"

Aunt Tao smiled and said, "How could that be possible? You don't even know him. He just reads books all day long. How could he think about these things?"

After saying that, he looked at Xie Qingwan and said, "Even if he doesn't worry about it, I, as a mother, can't help but pay attention. Fortunately, Mingyan has achieved fame now, so I want Madam to help me find a suitable lady or boy. If we can settle down soon, his father and I will feel at ease."

Gu Lingze frowned, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Xu Mingyan has indeed reached the age to get married.

Although the top scholar in the imperial examination does not hold a high position in the Hanlin Academy now, with his talent and the emperor's appreciation, it is only a matter of time before he becomes a close minister.

He was born with an outstanding and handsome appearance. On the day when the top scholar was paraded through the streets, he was so beautiful that he attracted countless girls and boys.

Xie Qingwan and Aunt Tao looked at Gu Lingze, who seemed to be hesitant to speak, and didn't understand why he had this attitude towards this matter. Just when they were about to ask him, they saw him stand up directly.

"Mom, Aunt Tao, I suddenly remembered something and need to go out for a while. I'll be back tonight to have dinner with you guys."

After saying that, he hurried out. Xie Qingwan and Aunt Tao looked at each other, shook their heads and smiled, not taking his abnormality to heart.

After leaving the General's Mansion, Gu Lingze went to Mu Tao Courtyard and went straight to Xu Mingyan.

"Brother Xu, we have known each other for such a long time, so I will just ask directly."

Unlike Gu Lingze who was anxious, Xu Mingyan was calm. He lowered his eyes and said, "Lingze, do you want to ask about Shulang and I?"

When Gu Lingze heard this, he felt that there was no need to ask any further.

Xu Mingyan appears to be a gentle person on the outside, but he is actually very difficult to get close to. If it wasn't someone he cared about, he would never address him in such an intimate way.

Gu Lingze exhaled deeply, "Today Aunt Tao went to the General's Mansion to ask my mother to choose a marriage for you. Brother Xu, what are you going to do?"

Xu Mingyan's fingertips turned pale as he held the book. "I will definitely get married, and I will give an explanation to my parents."

Gu Lingze understood what was said, but Huang Shulang, who had turned into his original form and was sunbathing on the roof, did not understand.

"Then I feel relieved."

Gu Lingze understood what the other party meant. He would marry Huang Shulang, but he would also give Aunt Tao a legitimate reason for her to accept it. This was exactly what Xu Mingyan meant.

But Huang Shulang thought that Xu Mingyan was going to marry someone else in order to give an explanation to his parents.

After Gu Lingze left, Huang Shulang rubbed the wet fur on his face with his little paws, then limped off the roof and ran away.

Two days later, Gu Lingze was studying the transmission mechanism of a landmine in the room when Xu Mingyan ran in with red eyes.

"Lingze, Shulang is missing."

Gu Lingze hurriedly came out from behind the desk and asked, "Did he go back to the mountains to play again?"

Xu Mingyan shook his head. "If he goes back, he will definitely tell me."

Before, Huang Shulang often went to various places to play. After all, he was a goblin who grew up in the mountains, and it was unrealistic to keep him in the downtown area for a long time.

But ever since he was injured, with Xu Mingyan taking care of him, he seldom went back to the mountain. Occasionally he would go and come back the same day, and would never make Xu Mingyan worry.

Gu Lingze frowned and asked, "Does he know that Aunt Tao is going to arrange a marriage for you?"

Xu Mingyan shook his head hesitantly, "He probably won't know."

Gu Lingze was a little embarrassed for a moment. If he was asked to find a demon that had killed people, it would not be a difficult task within a certain range.

But if you deliberately go looking for fairies with pure aura like Li Jin and Huang Shulang, it would be difficult to find them in a short time.

When he and Xu Mingyan arrived in the yard, he immediately drew talismans in the air and then quickly formed seals with his hands.

"Edict."

The two waited for three incense sticks, but there was no response at all.

Gu Lingze narrowed his eyes slightly. There were only two possibilities in this situation. One was that Huang Shulang didn't want to come back, and the other was that he couldn't come back.

No matter which situation it is, it would probably make Xu Mingyan extremely anxious.

Gu Lingze pursed his lips and decided to go look for it himself.

"Brother Xu, please wait at home first." After saying that, he took out a piece of talisman paper folded into a triangle from his sleeve, "If Huang Shulang comes back, you can burn it, and I will naturally be able to sense it."

Xu Mingyan also wanted to go along, but going would only slow down Gu Lingze, so he could only nod solemnly.
