Chapter 57: It's lingering when there is night
Hua Cangming looked at the heat dissipated by the hot tea in front of him, and was silent for a while, and then asked cautiously: "Sir, I have long felt that there is something wrong with the Zou family. I wonder if I have found any clues?"
Gu Liubai shook his head and said calmly: "My hand cannot reach as far as Youzhou, and if I go to investigate this matter early, it may cause some people in the Zou family to be alert. Instead, it is better not to move and alarm the old woman and the Hua family as soon as they move. But what is certain is that the team to Loulan was attacked back then, and there were many unreasonable aspects."
Hua Cangming clenched his hands slightly and said in a cold voice: "We will definitely find out the truth."
"The old lady is too old, don't let her work hard, just let her know the process." Gu Liubai looked at Hua Cangming and laughed: "Chen Tu, the person sitting next to me next to the fire tonight, he said he is very good at taking out the real answers from the people, you can let him try it."
"Okay." Hua Cangming agreed without hesitation.
He knew that what some people said might not be true, but some people were good at getting them to tell the truth.
As for the abilities of these people around Gu Liubai, he no longer doubted after seeing He Huoluo's punch.
Even Zhou Lu'er, who was so thin that his bones were bulging, gave him enough surprises.
In the thin body that was washed red, there was an extremely surging vitality surging.
With his breathing, he felt a kind of true energy that seemed very weak but never seemed to be cut off in Zhou Lu'er's body.
That is definitely an extremely brilliant method of true qi.
Now the specific military information of Heishawa has not been passed on to Longlezi Town, and Hua Cangming still cannot associate Gu Liubai with Heishawa's affairs, but just what is shown in front of him no longer wants him to explore what kind of power background is hidden behind this young man.
Such a person doesn't need to use Zou Jianan to take anything from the Zou family.
"Mr. Gu, I am a martial artist and I am not very good at expressing myself. If you say something wrong, please don't care." Hua Cangming mustered up his courage. After seeing Gu Liubai nodding, he continued: "I know you will not have any malice to Zou Jianan. It can be seen from his attitude towards you. But on the other hand, you have a great influence on him. I know that Mr. is not a bad person, but since Mr. Wen has decided to go to Chang'an in Youzhou, he must do a big thing. I don't want to put Jianan in some dangerous situation because of your relationship."
"I understand." Gu Liubai looked at Hua Cangming calmly and said, "You can see that Zou Lu'er is a person without any scheming. You are afraid that I will use him, but please don't worry, he is your family, but before that, he has been my family."
Hua Cangming was shocked and said, "Yes."
Gu Liubai smiled, "And you should think about it. It is precisely because of me that he is like this. If you really want to do good for him and don't want to bother him, you don't need to do something meaningless."
"I was too worried." Hua Cangming apologized: "Sir is not an ordinary person, but I am used to guessing Mr. He is using the ideas of ordinary people."
Before Gu Liubai stood up and left, he smiled and said, "Zou Lu'er said it well. You are a good person. I'm very happy that there are you in the world who really care about him."
Mrs. Zou took some medicine soup and finally fell asleep.
Although she was too tired, Zhou Lu'er slept on the shop in front of her, and she slept very peacefully.
Zhou Lu'er felt that the quilt was too soft and had no familiar smell, but he had always been able to sleep, so he fell asleep quickly.
However, in this camp, those who came with Zou Sanyi and Manager Wu couldn't fall asleep.
That night, Pei Yunqiu from another place couldn't sleep either.
She used to be like Gu Liubai, and she could sleep very well.
Whether in the bumpy carriage or in the noisy inn, she wanted to sleep and could fall asleep soon.
Sometimes I can even drool when I sleep.
The more tired she is, the more she sleeps soundly.
But now she was extremely tired, but she still couldn't sleep.
When I closed my eyes, I saw the smoke from the black sand ware and Gu Liubai's back.
At that time, I only knew to follow him and follow him as fast as possible, and I had no room for thinking.
Now, what I didn't think of at that time seemed to be full of her mind and filled her mind.
Agile, velocity, coldness... Gu Liubai's quick and neat assassination, every move that appeared in her mind would make her feel palpitations.
If she were the generals of Tubo, she would have died very simply.
He walked quietly in the smoke, like a cheetah hidden in the grass, focused, without any distractions, without fear, and even infecting her that she didn't know how to fear.
Not to mention the calmness that killed Gesang in the end.
The aura that made the Demon-Slaying Guard silent and retreated sadly.
And bandage yourself with one hand and apply medicine.
How can it be done?
“Ahhhhhh…”
A scream without ladylike demeanor sounded in the carriage.
Can't sleep, can't sleep at all.
Although he knew that the internal organs needed to be quiet, it was best not to bump, but when he listened to the sound of breaking through the air and knew that Li Xizhi must have arrived by his carriage, Pei Yunqi still said helplessly: "Li Xizhi, we will rush to go tomorrow and set out for Youzhou."
Li Xizhi sighed silently, pretending not to know what she wanted to do, but just said worriedly: "Go to Youzhou, this circle is a bit far away. You may miss your, Mr. Yuwen and Mr. Yuan..."
But before he finished speaking, he heard Pei Yunqiu say weakly, "I'm so sleepy, I'm asleep."
"??" Li Xizhi felt that his second lady was really a god.
I was so sleepy that I couldn't sleep just now, but the carriage was almost overturned, but now I was so sleepy that I fell asleep immediately?
If you don't want to talk to yourself, you can find a suitable reason.
Zhuo County in the previous dynasty and Youzhou in the current dynasty.
Youzhou has always been an extremely important strategic priority. A large amount of manpower and material resources have been built throughout the dynasties, making the commerce and handicrafts in Youzhou City very prosperous. Although it is nine miles north and south, seven miles east and west, and only thirty-two miles in circumference, ten doors open, and merchants are endless. At night, lights are like stars, singing and dancing to peace.
The Zou family mansion is located in the southeast corner of Youzhou, not far from Youzhou’s famous Minzhong Temple.
When it was just dawn, a carriage was parked in the side courtyard of Zou Mansion. A girl with extremely beautiful face and luxurious clothes got off the carriage, walked straight through the elegant garden, and came to a yard with green bamboos.
An old lady who rushed over after hearing the news was dressed in a mess. Looking at the hot girl, she couldn't help but say in surprise: "Miss Linyi, why are you here?"
This beautiful girl, about fourteen or fifteen years old, was Hua Linyi, a girl from Hua Cangming. When she heard the old lady’s question, she immediately said angrily: “My aunt is seriously ill. You don’t even inform me. I will settle the score with you after I see her.”
The old lady was anxious and said, "Miss Linyi was wrongly blamed for her. It was the old lady who specifically told her not to inform you, so as not to worry about you in Chang'an. How could she know that the lady rushed back from Chang'an instead."
"Who knows what you all think! She was afraid of delaying my studies. Wouldn't you send me a message in private?" Hua Linyi was furious and didn't want to talk to the old lady anymore, but the old lady and several guards stopped her.
"Miss Linyi, the old lady doesn't want to see anyone. She specially ordered not to let anyone in. What's more, it's too early..."
"presumptuous!"
Before the old lady could finish her words, she was interrupted by Hua Linyi's deep shout. The murderous intent in the beautiful girl's eyes was burning. "Even if she doesn't want to see anyone, she will definitely be happy to see me. If there is any further stopping, I will kill her!"
The old lady was familiar with Hua Linyi's temperament and knew that she would do what she said. As soon as she said this, she would dare to stop her. She could only watch Hua Linyi enter.
Before going to Chang'an, Hua Linyi didn't know how many trips she would come a year. She was already familiar with Mrs. Zou's daily habits. Although it was just dawn, according to her habits, she should have woken up long ago and just lying quietly to think about things.
"Auntie!"
She pushed the door and entered Mrs. Zou's dormitory and shouted softly. However, what made her eyebrows stand up instantly was that a woman on the bed got out of bed and gave her a big gift to her, and then made a gesture of silence.
"Wenshuang, what mystery are you doing?"
Hua Linyi didn't react slowly. After taking her to the door, she arrived in front of the other party, "Where is my aunt?"
Wenshuang is a woman in her forties and doesn't live in the Zou family's house on weekdays. However, she is also one of the closest people to Mrs. Zou. She is a manager of Baimixing, Youzhou. Her surname is Wu and her name is Wenshuang.
"Your brother and your aunt are with you. They went to Longlezi Town to pick up Zou Jianan." Wenshuang, who was usually dressed in Mrs. Zou, said softly.
Hua Linyi was shocked, "Has Jianan found it?"
Looking at Wenshuang nodding, Hua Linyi took a deep breath, "My aunt went to pick her up in person, and asked you to pretend to be her here without leaving home. Can you trust them?"
"Yes, things happened back then were very strange. This time, Zou Jianan came back from outside the pass. According to the news that the old lady had heard many times before, the person who sent the message was very credible. The person who was looking for it should be Jianan, not a fake person." Wu Wenshuang knew what Hua Linyi was worried about and comforted softly: "Although the road is long, you know that this is your aunt's heart disease. If you have your brother personally take care of her, there should be no problem."
"That shouldn't have kept me in the dark, so I was in a hurry after I heard the news in Chang'an!" Hua Linyi stomped her feet in anger.
Wu Wenshuang said softly: "If you send a message to you and tell the truth, you are afraid of leaking the news. But if you tell her that she is seriously ill, you will be anxious when you know it, but you didn't expect that you would still be known by you. But your aunt knew that you were concerned about her and would be very happy to rush back to Youzhou in such a hurry."
"Jianan is still able to come back alive, and I am happy for my aunt." Hua Linyi suddenly laughed and said, "Wenshuang, you keep pretending, I'm rushing back, so I'll just drive more roads and I'll meet my aunt on the way."
Wu Wenshuang nodded and said, "Then you have to be careful and don't let people know where you are."
Hua Linyi smiled slightly and said, "You still need to say this."
Wu Wenshuang was stunned. Thinking of Hua Linyi's previous style, she immediately sweated slightly on her forehead and said, "It's true that I'm too worried."
Early in the morning, Gu Liubai was woken up by He Huoluo in the border camp east of Longlezi Town.
Gu Liubai, wearing new clothes, walked out of the camp tent and saw Luang Po smiling at him in the morning light.
This time she didn't carry an arrow, but just waved to Gu Liubai and signaled him to go over.
