Walking in the somewhat messy alley, Wu Gen took many twists and turns, and finally stopped in front of a small courtyard that looked a little shabby.
The black paint on the door is mottled, and there are a few small holes in the door panel. However, unlike the neighboring courtyards where the walls are lush with vegetation and moss, the walls of this courtyard are neat and tidy, and even the door is spotlessly clean.
After looking around, Wu Gen stepped forward and knocked lightly on the door. After a while, the door was opened and Chu Xi appeared at the door. Seeing Wu Gen, he was not the least bit surprised. He stepped aside and said, "Come in first, we'll be ready soon."
Wu Gen entered the small courtyard and closed the door.
"My family is poor, so I won't invite you to tea." Chu Xi said, and hurried back to her room, with no intention of inviting Wu Gen into the room for a chat.
Wu Gen stood in the courtyard, looking at this narrow but very clean courtyard. There is nothing else in the courtyard, except for a pomegranate tree planted in the courtyard, which is as red as fire, but all the branches are pointing upward, making it look more restrained and straight.
In less than a cup of tea, Chu Xi appeared in the courtyard again, carrying a small package on his back. He was obviously ready, "Let's go."
Wu Gen looked at the pomegranate tree with his hands behind his back and smiled slightly, "Just a few possessions? But think about it, after leaving this courtyard, you won't be able to step back for many years."
Chu Xi looked at the sky and tightened the package around her body, "It's getting late. It will take some time to get out of the city. I don't want to travel at night."
Like a punch in the air, Wu Gen was choked and felt a little uncomfortable. The other party didn't pay attention to his question at all, and could only say depressedly: "Let's go, I rented a car, it should be faster."
Two people out
Entering the alley, there was a carriage parked at the entrance. This kind of carriage can be seen everywhere in Gaoyuan City, and no one will even look at it when walking on the street.
The car left Gaoyuan City and headed south. After traveling fifty miles, the two of them got out of the car and walked toward the wilderness on the side of the road. Arriving at an abandoned shepherd's house, Wu Gen stopped.
This place was chosen by Wu Gen. Chu Xi originally also chose a hiding place, but Wu Gen still insisted on leaving it here.
Looking at the messy ground in the room, Chu Xi frowned slightly, "When the rooster crows tomorrow, I will leave whether you come back or not."
Wu Gen nodded and put down some food. When he got up, he looked at Chu Xi who had made a simple broom out of mugwort and was already cleaning the house. "Today, I finally understand why you took such a big risk and wanted to help me."
"Why." Chu Xi straightened up, rolled up her sleeves and held a broom in her hand, looking a little funny.
"People say that things are like themselves. I was quite touched when I saw the pomegranate tree in the courtyard today. You look square, but in fact you are warm inside. But you hide it well on weekdays and hide it there. Such a shameful face." Wu Gen looked at the other party with a smile and leaned against the pillar.
"To be honest, it's not easy to walk out of that door. Once you leave, it means giving up a poor but comfortable life, and you don't know what will be waiting for you in the future. In this regard, you are better than me, and better than most people. powerful."
Speaking of this, Wu Gen paused, with a joking look on his face, "Let me ask you, if Huanshanu hadn't brought me into the house, would you still be hesitant about whether to step out?
This step. "
Chu Xi dusted off the dust on his body and looked at Wu Gen calmly, "Wu Gen, don't think too highly of yourself, and don't underestimate others. I have already made up my mind from the first time you tested me.
Because you have a rebellious temperament, you are adventurous and dare to do things, and you don't fall into the trap of convention. This is exactly what I lack. I need you as a fulcrum to rebuild my life.
Of course, Huansha's participation was a factor. I was not drunk when she came that night, and I could hear your conversation clearly. For her, I have to give it a try.
The most important thing is that I want to get out of Gaoyuan City and live another life.
In fact, I have already drawn that map. I'm just watching to see if you dare to enter Wanhu Mansion. If you dare not enter, I will destroy the picture because there is no way to plot it.
I have seen many ambitious people,
I chose you in the end. Wu Gen, it’s not that you chose me, but that I chose you. "
Wu Gen's face froze. He didn't expect that this dead-faced man was actually pretending to be drunk. He had already made up his mind, and he was still testing on the left and knocking on the right. Thinking about it when he was doing these things, Chu Xi felt like he was watching a monkey.
With a dark face, Wu Gen turned around and walked out. When he arrived at the door, Fang said angrily, "I'll try my best to come before dawn. If anything happens, you can just make your own decision."
Chu Xi smiled slightly, "Then I wish you all the best and success. But if things don't work out, you will die. Don't hurt others."
Wu Gen tightened his hand on the door, scratched a hole in the wooden door, and walked away bitterly.
At night, Wu Gen left the inn and ran through the night,
Sneak towards the Heita family's mansion. The surrounding terrain and the map drawn by Chu Xi have been calculated in his mind countless times.
Wu Gen is going to sneak into the mansion tonight and use the tailbone that Yun Ao gave him to give the mansion a beating. That day, Ling Yun's eight knights killed six knights, and died at the hands of the Heita family. Wu Gen had been thinking about how to take revenge.
This is both unwise and dangerous. But Wu Gen has never been a tolerant person, and he does not have the habit of a gentleman taking revenge every ten years. He could kill Bailisu regardless of the consequences, and of course he would not worry about the trouble caused by revenge on the Heita family.
You can't beat them with a beating, so you can only use this kind of thrusting method to hit the Heita family hard in Gaoyuan City, where the opponent thinks it's safe. Forcing him to return his sights to his homeland and withdraw his troops outside to relieve the pressure on the Fearless Army.
There was only one last blow left on the tailbone, which was Wu Gen's last resort to save his life. But today, in order to avenge his brothers, in Wanhu Mansion where there are many masters, Wu Gen is ready to use this precious blow. Make an explanation to the dead people and to your own heart.
The place where Wu Gen was going to sneak into was in the north of the mansion, which was close to the military camp and where the cultivators in the mansion lived. If it succeeds, it will cause huge losses to the Black Tower family's mid-to-high-end combat power.
Following Chu Xi's map, Wu Gen found a small door. This door is usually not opened, and it is located between the military camp and the area where the practitioners live. No one would choose this place for a sneak attack, so there is no guard.
Avoiding the night watchman, Wu Gen quietly jumped into the outer courtyard. There was silence in the courtyard. The officials on duty here had already
Leave. Taking advantage of the darkness, he hurried towards the inner courtyard.
Someone was patrolling the wall of the inner courtyard. Wu Gen raised his head and looked at the stars in the sky, counting them silently in his heart. Sure enough, less than a moment later, the guards patrolling the wall walked off the wall on time. When the two teams of guards changed shifts, there would be a gap in between.
Leaping into the inner courtyard, Wu Gen avoided the shadow and quickly walked through the trees and ponds. In front of him was the courtyard complex where the practitioners lived. There is also a high tower here, which is usually used for practitioners to breathe. It is also the tallest building in the entire Wanhu Mansion.
After calming down his somewhat chaotic breath, Wu Gen took out his tailbone and pointed it in the direction of the tower. Just as he was about to start, his eyes suddenly blurred and a figure appeared in front of him.
"It's you, a boy. You're here late at night. You must be a gentleman." The figure said. It was the old man surnamed Huang who met Wu Gen that day.
The cold hair on Wu Gen's body stood up, his heart beat rapidly, and he felt as if he was in a cold cellar. There is a feeling in the dark that as long as he makes the slightest move, he will definitely die on the spot.
"Senior, I feel deeply ashamed for your earnest teachings that day. I came here tonight to find an expert to be my disciple." Wu Gen muttered, bowed his head slightly, and quietly pointed his tailbone at the old man surnamed Huang.
"Apprenticeship? At night?" The old man surnamed Huang did not expect Wu Gen to say such a thing, and felt a little ridiculous for a moment.
Just when the opponent was stunned for a moment, Wu Gen boldly activated his tailbone. A golden fist appeared in the night. The fist was the size of a house in an instant. It roared and rushed towards the old man surnamed Huang in front of him.
The golden light is sparkling, the light and shadow are scattered, on the edge of the golden light
, a person or half a figure staggered away.
The fist continues to move forward, no matter it is a wall, a tree, a house, or a tower, there is nothing
If the law blocks it for a moment, it will turn into powder and fragments in an instant. Where the smoke and dust rose, a huge deep trench appeared, piercing through the mansion.
Everything happened in an instant, and a large area of ruins appeared in the inner courtyard, which was originally lined with pavilions and pavilions. The power of the fist was too great, and the heat generated by the rapid impact caused a fire.
That's all. Due to the drastic changes in the terrain, and the vibrations of the fists gradually spreading to the distance, a series of clicking sounds were heard, extending to both sides along the deep grooves on the ground. Houses continued to fall down, and rumbling sounds were heard. It was heard far away in the silent night.
Thanks to the appearance of the old man surnamed Huang, Wu Gen slightly adjusted the direction of his tailbone. Otherwise, the entire inner courtyard might have suffered.
As soon as the blow was sent out, Wu Gen turned around and rushed out without even looking. As soon as they ran under the wall of the outer courtyard, a man was looking in the direction of the inner courtyard in panic. It was the white-bearded old thief who was with the old man surnamed Huang.
Seeing Wu Gen coming over, this man was so confused that he actually asked aloud: "What happened?"
Without saying a word, Wu Gen hurriedly passed by the man, and with a flash of sword light in the darkness, he cut the soul-lost man in half.
After leaving the Heita family's mansion, Wu Gen lowered his body and crossed the houses, running towards the south of the city. We must leave the city at this time. If we wait for the whole city to be under martial law and search at dawn, I am afraid we will have to stay here.
The city wall in the south of the city appeared in front of us. There were not many more lanterns on the wall, but there were already some heads shaking. Everything happened so suddenly,
No one reacted.
Wu Gen secretly rejoiced, ran up the city wall, and ran towards the night under the somewhat surprised eyes of everyone.
Walking to a forest, Wu Gen finally relaxed a little. Suddenly, a black shadow jumped out from one side and knocked Wu Gen away. The force was so great that it crashed through three big trees one after another, and Fang landed heavily on the ground.
Enduring the pain and getting up from the ground, Wu Gen saw clearly that the black figure was the old man named Huang, but at this time he was very miserable, and half of his body was gone.
Even if he didn't die, Wu Gen was really speechless and drew his sword towards the old man.
"Boy, you are looking for death. You dared to do such a cruel thing. I really underestimated you that day." The old man held on to a wooden stake beside him, stood up with force, and said through gritted teeth.
Wu Gen discovered that the old man's hands were already bloody and bloody. From meeting to chasing, to meeting again, this man actually used his hands to chase him all the way here.
