Chapter 237 Jin丨Exclusive publication by Jiang Wenxue
Daxing has always had the custom of "long-term mourning without burial", and the time of death may be several years different from the time of burial. Although Zhao Ji's death has not been announced, everyone tacitly considers him dead. In addition, many people have died recently, and the people have consciously reduced their entertainment, and the streets have become much emptier.
Gong Jiu thought the car was too slow, so he rode to Bujiezhai. After running two blocks, he met a beggar wearing brocade clothes.
He couldn't help but look at him a few more times. The beggar's hair was too messy and he couldn't see his face clearly, but the clothes he was wearing looked more and more familiar.
"Stop." The beggar said, "Turn around and go outside the city."
The horse's hooves stomped a few times on the bluestone road. The young man in the moon-white robe looked down at him with a stern look, "Who are you?"
"Yu Qi."
Thanks to Yu Qi's superb disguise skills, few people know his appearance and name. In addition, the familiar clothes he wore outside made it unlikely that someone would impersonate him.
In Gong Jiu's heart, Yu Qi was shameless, cunning, and insidious. He was good at disguise and even better at sowing discord. He didn't know where his elder brother dug him out.
Yu Qi had been working for his elder brother for almost half a year. Apart from annoying him, he had never done anything serious. Presumably his elder brother knew better than him that it was difficult to recruit such a person.
Gong Jiu looked at him and had to admit that Yu Qi's disguise was impeccable.
The beggar in front of him was nothing like him when he disguised himself as himself or his brother. He was not pretending to be so now. His hair was messy and his face was not clear, but his temperament was very unique, with a deep and unpredictable feeling.
Yu Qi approached slowly. Gong Jiu thought he was going to say something to him. The next moment, Yu Qi jumped on the horse without any warning and sat behind him.
It was really unpredictable!
Thinking of the mud on Yu Qi, Gong Jiu felt uncomfortable all over. He gritted
his teeth and said, "Get out!" Yu Qi grabbed his wrist and said lightly, "Go outside the city."
Xue Chen: [God has his own way.]
System: [What?]
Gong Jiu tried to fight him, but Yu Qi was prepared. He controlled him skillfully and did not make him feel uncomfortable, but it was difficult for him to escape.
Yu Qi pinched the pulse point on his wrist, held the reins with one hand, and turned the direction.
Gong Jiu said with a cold face: "You should at least tell me the cause and effect."
"Fang Yingkan colluded with the people of the Western Luosha Sect, Xue Chen was caught on the spot, and now we go to invite Yu Luosha."
Gong Jiu's heart moved: "Yu Luosha?"
Yu Qi: "He should have heard the news and led his subordinates to the Central Plains, but he didn't expect the change to come so quickly, so he is still waiting and watching."
There was no emotional fluctuation in the two consecutive long sentences.
Gong Jiu figured out where the sense of disharmony came from.
Yu Qi didn't make any superfluous movements. For example, the changes in the center of gravity of the body, the changes in the fingers and facial muscles, even the frequency of blinking and breathing have not changed, it's simply not like a living person.
Medicine man? Living dead? Or some other secret technique?
Gong Jiu squeezed Yu Qi's hand tentatively.
Yu Qi: "Are you sick?"
Gong Jiu was not a person who particularly cared about his face, not to mention that there were only the two of them now, with no outsiders around. "I am indeed sick, don't you know? I think your disguise skills are just so-so."
Xue Chen remembered the time on the Nameless Island. In order to deceive the old man and the beef soup, he mixed the herbs, created an embarrassing smell, and was whipped for no reason.
He found a piece of cloth and stuffed it hard into Fang Yingkan's mouth.
Compared to the original body that he had experienced personally, Yu Qi did not feel anything. Even though the disguise skills that he relied on for survival were belittled by others, he still had no waves in his heart and said calmly: "It makes sense."
Gong Jiu snorted coldly, gave up the struggle, and resigned himself to his fate.
Worried about the possibility of another dispute and that it would be difficult to leave the capital, Yu Luocha did not take his subordinates into the city, but slept in the deserted mountains.
He lived in a huge carriage, followed by twelve followers. Every day, his subordinates would bring him water and fresh food, including oil, salt, rice, noodles, meat, milk, eggs, vegetables, fine wine and delicacies. The stove for cooking had already been built, and there was plenty of firewood. There were two huge water tanks next to it, one for making tea and cooking, and the other for washing clothes and cleaning. It was no worse than being in the desert.
Therefore, Yu Luocha was very patient and not in a hurry at all.
"How many days has it been? Has there been a letter from Wanmei Villa?" Yu Luocha leaned on the couch, glanced at the sky, and put down the book in his hand.
The maid beside him opened the incense burner and replaced the incense with new ones. "Today is the fourth day. Calculating the time, the young master should be home soon. The letter was sent today, and it will take some time to arrive."
Yu Luosha wanted to say something else, but suddenly heard a voice outside. She raised her hand to signal the maid to keep quiet.
Through the thin red gauze curtain, Yu Luosha saw two people riding a horse through the dense forest and stopped not far away.
The Luosha sect members whispered outside the carriage: "Master, the prince of Taiping is here."
"Let him come."
"He wants you to go out and see him in person."
Yu Luosha turned sideways to look outside. The young man in white was tall and straight, and in a trance, he looked a bit like his son whom he had not seen for a long time.
And the man standing next to the prince, dressed in shabby clothes, why does he look so familiar? I feel like I've seen him somewhere before?
The subordinate said in the Western dialect: "Should we chase them away?"
Yu Luosha: "No need."
He had just arranged for his men to enter the city for a few days, and the prince of Taiping had already found this place. I'm afraid he had been targeted for a long time.
The power of Luosha Cult is in the Western Regions. They came to the Central Plains just to see if they can get a share of the pie, not to make enemies. What's wrong with letting the younger generation go?
"Your Highness, I am sorry for not welcoming you in person." Yu Luosha's face was still covered with gray mist. Although he lowered his attitude, he could not hide his arrogance. "What are you two doing here in this wilderness?"
There are many people in this world who can release their inner strength, but few can make it thick enough to cover their faces, and even fewer can keep it going.
He is really Yu Luosha.
Yu Qi did not lie to him.
It seems that Yu Luosha has stayed here for some time, but he didn't know it at all.
"Why is the leader of Luosha Sect here?"
"Can't I come here? Or, what law did I violate by coming from the Western Regions? I have all kinds of documents here, would you like to check it out, Prince?" Yu Luosha was prepared.
Gong Jiu said coldly: "What Master Yu said is not within my responsibility. If you are anxious to prove your innocence, you can go to the Jingzhao Yin Yamen. I came here this time just to ask Master Yu to come, you should know what I mean."
The atmosphere gradually became tense, and the people of Luosha put down what they were doing and looked over.
"Godfather." The background board spoke.
Gong Jiu's eyebrows jumped, and he felt something was wrong.
Yu Luocha finally remembered where the familiar feeling came from. He pretended to have recognized him a long time ago and snorted, "You still recognize my adoptive father?"
Yu Qi: "I didn't lose my memory."
The past interactions with Yu Qi came to his mind. Yu Luocha had to admit that since Yu Qi left, there were fewer troubles. His mood was stable and he felt twenty years younger.
After reuniting with Yu Qi, he became twenty years older.
The gray mist shrouded Yu Luosha, and her expression could not be seen clearly. Her voice was also terribly flat. "Why are you with the prince of Taiping? Have you done all the things I asked you to do? You have been away from home for so long and there is no trace of you. You don't even know to write to your family."
Yu Qi randomly picked a question to answer, "I did it. I have been monitoring Ximen Chuxue."
Monitoring Ximen Chuxue? Why did Luosha Cult monitor Ximen Chuxue?
Ximen Chuxue came to the capital. Is it related to Luosha Cult? He came to challenge him to a duel. Could it be that Yu Qi was behind it?
Gong Jiu felt that this trip was not in vain, but he didn't know what role his elder brother played in it.
Compared with Gong Jiu's brainstorming, Yu Luosha's eyes went dark.
He has been hiding it for so many years, is he finally unable to hide it?
Well, Fubuki is no longer a weak child, he has practiced sword for many years, his heart is firm, and he has the ability to protect himself.
Finally, he doesn't have to hide anymore, and Fubuki and he can be an upright father and son... I'm actually looking forward to it.
But this is not a reason for Yuqi to stab Luozi!
Those who know that Yuqi has no feelings, those who don't think he is deliberately going against them.
It's only been a few days since he left, has Yuqi lost his ability to judge emotions?
Looking at his current state, has he still been able to understand people's hearts after coming to Central Plains?
Yu Qi seemed unaware of the undercurrents around him, and said calmly: "Fang Yingkan has been arrested, and you are needed to testify."
Yu Luocha: "What if I don't go?"
Yu Qi nodded to Gong Jiu, "I will go with him to arrest you."
Yu Luocha knew that he was not afraid, so he saved the threat. He said to Fang Yingkan, "It's really outrageous that this child is so dirty. Can you wait for a moment and let him take a shower and change clothes first?"
Gong Jiu: "Whatever."
Yu Luocha raised his hand to grab Yu Qi, but Yu Qi reacted quickly and retreated far away in an instant.
"I haven't seen you for a few months, but your lightness skills have improved." Yu Luocha suppressed his anger, "Xiao Qi, come here, your godfather will take you to take care of it."
Xue Chen: [What do you mean take care of it? It's obvious that you want to hit me! 】
System:【You deserve it.】
Xue Chen:【Xiao Qi has no feelings, and he has not thought about other people. It just happened unconsciously.】
System:【Then why are you hiding? Go with him.】
Yu Qi used all his skills to click on some messy things. In addition to the full level of Qinggong and the third level of internal force passed down by Yuan Feishuang, he basically has no combat ability.
Xue Chen:【Xiao Qi is the one who got beaten, and it’s my brother who is embarrassed. I did this for his own good. Who makes me a good brother?】
The system took advantage of the fact that he couldn’t see and rolled its eyes wildly in his mind.
Yu Qi hid behind Gong Jiu and poked him with his hand, "You go with me."
Gong Jiu gritted his teeth: "Are you a child? Do you need someone to accompany you to take a bath?"
Yu Qi: "My clothes are dirty."
Gong Jiu sneered: "Oh, why are my clothes dirty, don't you know?"
"I got them on you." Yu Qi asked, "So do you want to come with me?"
Gong Jiu gritted his teeth, "I'll go with you." Yu
Luosha's anger after being disobeyed dissipated. Xiao Qi really didn't target him, but just left his teachings and grew a little crooked.
Yu Qi forced Gong Jiu to go to the same car, washed himself simply, and changed into new clothes.
Yu Qi changed into a purple silk dress, which was very Western style. Her long hair dripping with water was loose. Although her appearance was bold and gorgeous, she didn't look angry at all, and was as low-key as a stone on the side of the road.
Gong Jiu: "Is this your own face?"
Yu Qi: "No. I never use my own face."
Gong Jiu: "Why?"
Yu Qi picked up a cotton towel to wipe his hair and answered casually: "I'm afraid of being disguised."
