Chapter 167: Gu Yuye Seeking Death (Two in One)
Having learned from the lessons of the last time and the time before that, Xu Fu deliberately chose to come during the day this time to avoid encountering this guy doing something he shouldn't do.
She thought she was foolproof, but she didn't expect that she would be rejected by Gu Fangchen just because she wanted to turn around.
Xu Fu paused and frowned, confirming that at this moment, she and Gu Fangchen were the only two people in the room.
It's not like Gu Fangchen sleeps without clothes, she's just wearing thin clothes, so why bother covering up...
This guy was so honest and rude to the little maid, and he played so wildly, so why is he being so shy now?
Unless, it was because he found out that it was him who came, not Xuexiang.
Thinking of this, Xu Fu's brows relaxed a little.
Gu Fangchen once said that he liked her. Although it was hard to tell whether his words were true or not, judging from the difference in his attitude, he did seem to be unwilling to offend her, the "unattainable, pure and innocent imperial teacher."
Her mind raced, thinking that he dared to be so presumptuous when they were talking about lovesickness in private, but she didn't dare to offend him when they met in real life.
It seemed like it was the same last time. She had clearly spoken, but Gu Fangchen only wanted the scriptures she had copied personally.
In other words...that day, Gu Fangchen really didn't realize it was him.
After Xu Fu returned that day, he naturally couldn't just pretend that nothing had happened. He even suspected that this guy was pretending...
After all, Gu Fangchen saw through her possession of Xuexiang for the first time, but it was a bit far-fetched that he couldn't recognize her later.
But now, Gu Fangchen's first reaction was not to play dumb, but to cover it up immediately.
Xu Fu felt slightly relieved. Although this person had coveted him, he still didn't dare to act presumptuously in front of a second-rank person.
Little did they know...
Gu Fangchen had been rehearsing for a long time in advance, just to show in front of the National Master that he could distinguish whether he recognized it or not.
To reduce the suspicion of "knowingly committing a crime".
However, after being rewarded by the eldest princess last night, Nineteen's body has become stronger after practicing the strong martial arts all day long, and he does have his own ideas.
Gu Fangchen closed his eyes. The moon shone brightly, and his mind suddenly became clear. He suppressed his reaction.
Alas, it is useful when the spiritual cultivation is high, and the control over the physical body is dozens of times that of ordinary people.
Without a legitimate reason, the plot of being drugged and possessed would never happen...especially if it had to be hidden from a top Shinto master like the Imperial Master.
Gu Fangchen's thoughts flashed through his mind, and he sat up and said with a smile:
"Master Imperial Master, do you have any clues to the causal line that the Six Star Lords have found?"
Xu Fu then turned around calmly and nodded:
"That's what I was going to tell you."
She told Gu Fangchen in detail about the situation of Cao Tianzhou of the "Sword Sect".
"Cao Tianzhou has been lingering on for three years, and I'm afraid he won't live long. The most urgent task is to go to the Demon Suppression Prison of the Dugu Family in Gusu Road, rescue Cao Tianzhou, and then use secret methods to sever the cause and effect."
"Otherwise, once he dies, this karma will re-enter the cycle of reincarnation, and the demonic cult may discover him and take advantage of him."
Gu Fangchen raised an eyebrow, secretly thinking that this time it happened to this person by chance...
In the game, although Cao Tianzhou is only a supporting character, he is quite popular because of his tragic heroic character.
Although he is barely alive, this guy can actually survive for another three years. He will wait for the players to rescue him, burn himself out, and kill Dugu Yue with one blow.
As for the truth of that year, it was also very simple.
Dugu Yue secretly sent someone to tell him that I had thrown your wife and daughter into the Demon-Suppressing Prison, and if you have the ability, go in and rescue them yourself.
Cao Tianzhou was an honest but stubborn man. After hearing the instructions, he went straight into the Demon-Suppressing Prison and was caught in the trap.
He has been imprisoned like this until today, and outsiders assume that he is dead.
As a result, he relied on the hatred and obsession in his heart to live and eat with demons and evil spirits in the Demon-Suppressing Prison and survived.
Gu Fangchen admired this guy, except that he was a little stupid.
Of course, Cao Tianzhou's fourth-grade peak cultivation seems strong, but the power of the Dugu family is no joke. Although the fourth-grade is strong, there are at least two of them in the family.
If Cao Tianzhou really wanted to force it, I'm afraid there would be no result...
Gu Fangchen organized the information in his mind and thought about it.
It is not difficult to rescue Cao Tianzhou. It just so happens that I have to go to Gusu Road this time.
Speaking of which, Gu Fangchen also has some connection with the Dugu family...
Ning Caiyong and Ning Songjun's father was the head of Jiange, and their mother, who died young, was named Dugu Ping. She was from the Dugu family of Gusu Road and was Dugu Yue's half-sister.
Otherwise, why do we say that the relationships between big sects and big families are often complicated, with people of the same blood and relatives, and the relationships are very chaotic?
This is also why Ning Caiyong gave birth to a child in Gusu Road.
She was the legitimate granddaughter of the Dugu family in Gusudao. At that time, Gu Yuye was still fighting with Qing Man on the battlefield and could not come back, leaving Ning Caiyong alone in the palace to give birth. Jiange was too far away, so she was taken in by the Dugu family to be taken care of.
Unexpectedly, an accident happened on the way and they encountered an evil spirit causing trouble, causing Ning Caiyong to give birth prematurely.
Although the mother and child were safe, the evil cult took advantage of the chaos to swap the children, which led to today's dispute over the true and false prince.
If we want to investigate what happened back then, we really have to start from Gusu Road.
Gu Fangchen narrowed his eyes and said seriously:
"In that case, I'll just go to Gusu. Master Guoshi, please pick a wrong target and have the Blood Robe Guards capture him to attract the attention of the Demon Cult."
This was originally the plan they had made early on. Xu Fu nodded and heard Gu Fangchen say:
"Master Imperial Master, if this is accomplished, it will bring peace to the world, and we will be one step closer to achieving genuine value..."
He raised his head, sighed and said:
"Although it is my honor to serve the Imperial Master, rescuing people from the Dugu family is not an easy task."
Both explicitly and implicitly, they hint at the need for a little sweetness.
Xu Fu: “…”
I knew this guy wouldn't be serious for long.
The Imperial Master looked at Gu Fangchen's scorching gaze, and somehow thought of the scaleless monster python he felt in his palm with his eyes closed that night... A feeling of anger and shame rose in his heart again.
Although she really wanted to say that the sweet taste had already been given and that she shouldn't dream of anything more extreme, that would expose the truth about her possession at that time.
Therefore, Xu Fu could only snort coldly:
"What unreasonable request do you have?"
Gu Fangchen chuckled and rubbed his hands:
"Master Imperial Master's brilliant plan..."
Xu Fu took a deep breath, bit his lip, and said, "Tell me, what do you want this time?"
Gu Fangchen looked at Xu Fu with a burning gaze and said:
"I want..."
"The Shinto visualization diagram of the Way of Heaven's Fate."
?
A question mark popped up in Xu Fu's mind.
Gu Fangchen wanted to keep a little maidservant by his side every day as a substitute, which was so... unbearable.
She had already prepared herself for Gu Fangchen to make some excessive demands, but this guy said he was the Imperial Master Xinyue, but in reality, his intentions were either the scriptures or the visualization diagrams!
Is she not even as good as these things?
The Imperial Master obviously didn't know that when a man speaks without restraint but acts with discretion, he must be up to something big...
Gu Fangchen blinked and said carefully:
"The visualization diagrams of each sect are a secret inheritance. If the Imperial Master is unwilling..."
Xu Fu suppressed the inexplicable resentment in his heart and said calmly:
"The Way of Heaven's Fate is quite special. We don't have any strict rules other than pursuing Heaven's Fate. If you want it, I'll pass it on to you when you come back."
But the inheritance of the visualization diagram is indeed secret, so she couldn't pass it on to Gu Fangchen in public through possession.
Gu Fangchen must go to the Canliao Pillar and use his true body...
Gu Fangchen suddenly smiled and raised his little finger:
"Then it's a deal."
Xu Fu was stunned and listened to Gu Fangchen's explanation:
"This is a secular ceremony, a pinky promise signifies the contract."
Xu Fu had never lived among the common people, so he naturally didn't understand these things. Seeing that he looked very serious, he followed his example and stretched out his hand, and they both hooked their little fingers and shook them.
They separated immediately after the contact, and Gu Fangchen didn't seem to have any intention of taking advantage.
Xu Fu nodded secretly. As expected... he should have come during the day. It would be much safer this way.
Then, with the thought that "it is safe during the day", he left Xuexiang's body.
Xuexiang looked a little dazed, and she found herself at the bedside of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince without knowing when, and she was suddenly confused.
Before she could react, Gu Fangchen pulled her over and kissed her twice.
Xuexiang suddenly felt dizzy, her face flushed almost red, and she forgot how she got here.
Although the prince had asked her to do more extreme things, this was her first time kissing her...
Xuexiang was not a peerless master like the eldest princess. The little maid became soft at the touch of a finger, and her teeth were easily pried open, making her unconscious.
Suddenly, Granny Cui's voice came from outside:
"Your Highness, the Purple Extreme Palace summons you."
Gu Fangchen let go of Xuexiang, who had almost turned into a small tomato, and his expression was as expected:
"knew."
Xuexiang's heart was pounding, and she jumped away in fright. She picked up Gu Fangchen's clothes, her almond eyes and rosy cheeks almost dripping with tears, but she still did her duty and put them on for her own prince.
…
As the eldest princess revealed, Gu Yuye indeed started from the groom.
In the Ziji Palace, Gu Yuye brought up the groom. He was indeed very rough-looking, with dark skin, plain features, and was very crude. His body was covered with marks of torture, and his scapula was pierced by an iron hook.
“Crash!”
The groom knelt on the ground with the chains on his shoulders and said in a fearful tone:
"Mercy! Mercy! I didn't mean to do that. Those people forced me to say that! This, this is the mark of those people!"
"I was momentarily bewildered and made a deal with them..."
He raised his arm, and a layer of flesh had been torn off, revealing a dark Chinese character "互" (mutual) underneath.
This is clearly the symbol of the "Heng Chang" Dao among the Ten Supreme Daos.
The black color bit into the groom's bones and muscles like a cancer, emitting an aura of choosing its prey.
However, at this moment, this mark was suppressed by another majestic force and showed no signs of breaking out of the ground.
In the eyes of most people, followers of the "Hengchang" Taoism are not very dangerous, because most of the time they appear in the form of businessmen or Taoists.
Yin and Yang, sun and moon, breathing... these common sense of the world are the embodiment of Tao in their eyes.
When practicing the principle of "balancing the norm" in daily life, the simplest way is "equivalent exchange."
However, if the trader violates the transaction, he will be eliminated by the "normal" way.
It was obvious that this groom had made some kind of deal with the "Hengchang" believers, which led to the exchange of the prince.
Gu Yuye said solemnly:
"Your Majesty, according to the groom, Gu Fangchen is not his child, but a baby replaced by a Taoist from the evil cult 'Hengchang'!"
"Even if the original swap had nothing to do with Gu Fangchen, it's still a serious matter. Especially since someone from the 'love' sect impersonated him and ruined the morale of many scholars at the Qionglin Banquet, there's no guarantee that there aren't some demonic cults secretly plotting something... I believe this must be investigated!"
Gu Fangchen looked up at the emperor sitting behind the curtain and couldn't help blinking.
It's all known to Heng Chang. Is it really okay to continue investigating like this...?
If the investigation leads to Emperor Yong'an himself, it will be a serious matter.
Once the vest is removed, it directly enters the final boss battle... Facing the Taoist Master Heng Chang, Gu Yuye is a little Karami, and everyone will die together.
Gu Fangchen didn't dare to confront Emperor Yong'an and kept playing dumb because "Emperor Yong'an" and "Master Hengchang" were actually two different concepts.
It was like role-playing. When he was wearing the Emperor Yong'an costume, everything he said and did was consistent with the character of Emperor Yong'an.
If this leather case falls off, there will no longer be a human underneath.
Gu Fangchen was not sure about the purpose of Taoist Heng Chang. He didn't know what he meant by throwing him out, so he didn't dare to act rashly.
But Gu Yuye... seemed to be rushing towards his own death.
If they really find out something, Gu Fangchen will definitely not be the one who will be in trouble.
Upon hearing this, Emperor Yong'an also looked very surprised:
"Is this really true?"
He sighed, as if he was in some trouble, and cast his gaze towards Gu Fangchen thoughtfully:
"In that case, the person who tied the bell must always be the one to untie it. It's up to you to find out your origins."
"Go to Gusu and bring me the truth."
When Gu Fangchen heard this, his whole body stiffened and his scalp felt a little numb.
The person who tied the bell must untie it... He told this to Gua Gua Gong, which allowed the latter to become a traitor in the Demon Sect and avoid being hunted down by the main force of the "Death" Sect.
Now Emperor Yong'an seemed to be speaking to him.
Tell him... I know everything you did.
Gu Fangchen took a deep breath and bowed:
"yes."
…
Gu Fangchen and Gu Yuye returned to the palace together.
Gu Yuye stopped at the door, looked at Gu Fangchen with cold eyes, narrowed his eyes, and said:
"Gu Fangchen, don't think you have won. This is just the beginning."
Precisely because of the falling out, the reputation that Gu Yuye had always cared about no longer existed, so he no longer had to worry about taking action.
Gu Fangchen spread his hands and smiled arrogantly:
"Your Majesty, if you want to kill me, then come on, you can do it now."
Of course, Gu Yuye would not be so stupid as to do this. He flicked his sleeves and flew away.
"Chen'er!"
Ning Caiyong came forward and said worriedly:
"The emperor wants you to go to Gusu?"
Gu Fangchen nodded:
"yes."
He thought for a moment, then suddenly took two steps forward and hugged Ning Caiyong:
"Mom, I have a request..."
