"Gujiacun?"
"Xu Yao, you stay at home, and everyone else will follow me to Gujiacun!"
Gu Jiu was taken back to Shi's house by Shi Qiusheng. He got on the carriage and looked at Shi Qiusheng who was sitting beside him. Gu Jiu asked, "Master Shi, did Gu Wensheng escape?"
Shi Qiusheng nodded, his eyes closed tightly, and he plucked the beads in his hand quickly and urgently.
"Is there a shortcut to Gujiacun?"
When he first learned that Shi Yuyan was in love with Gu Zheqi, Shi Qiusheng asked someone to check Gu Zheqi's family background and roughly know the direction to Gujiacun.
"have no idea."
"You didn't know that was your home?" Shi Qiusheng's words were mixed with anger, as if he had finally found a vent, he exhaled a big breath impatiently.
"Yes! Master Shi, I think you should know one thing. I'm not coming with you because of profit, let alone responsibility. It's just that I don't want to see anything happen to Miss Shi. If you disdain my little help, I can do it now Jump out of the car and leave!”
Hearing this, Shi Qiusheng stopped talking.
It takes fourteen hours to travel by oxcart from Yuncheng to Gujiacun. Now Shi Qiusheng and his party drove the carriage and hurriedly and slowly shortened the distance to seven hours.
"Oh, there are so many carriages! Who are these people?"
"I don't know... Well, look at that, isn't that Xiao Jiu?"
"It's true! Do you think this Gu Jiu has also married into a high-ranking family?"
"Don't tell me, this battle looks really similar!"
"Is this man forty? He is just a concubine!"
"..."
As soon as the carriage entered the village, it attracted a large number of villagers to watch, but they were afraid of the servants around the carriage and did not dare to approach easily.
"Where are we going?" Shi Qiusheng got off the carriage first and looked back at Gu Jiu and asked.
"This way."
Gu Jiu ignored the group of people calling her to watch the fun from across the Shi family's servants, and led Shi Qiusheng to quickly run to Mr. Gu's house.
boom--
Before the door even had a chance to be knocked, it went out of business and was scrapped.
"What do you do? Who allowed you to come in?"
Old Mrs. Gu, who was startled by the loud noise, looked at the swarm of people rushing in and asked loudly. When she saw Gu Jiu, her questioning immediately turned into yelling.
"That room."
Before Gu Jiu could lift his outstretched finger, the door of Gu Zheqi's room was kicked open.
"You bitch, you lose money, that's your cousin's house, you're going to rebel against me!"
As soon as Mrs. Gu finished scolding her, Gu Zheqi was caught.
"Master, this man was just about to jump out of the window and escape, but we happened to catch him."
A servant pushed Gu Zheqi, who was only wearing underwear, in front of Shi Qiusheng.
"Where is my daughter?"
Gu Zheqi said nothing.
Shi Qiusheng's eyebrows were cold. When he heard that Gu Zheqi was planning to escape, he was already 100% sure that his daughter was taken away by him!
Standing next to Shi Qiusheng, Gu Jiu suddenly felt an inexplicable coldness and turned around just in time to see him gesturing with several other servants.
After a while, both Mr. Gu and Gu Youcai and his wife were brought out. They were all gagged and pinned to the ground.
"I'll give you one last chance. Where is my daughter?"
Gu Zheqi lowered his head and said nothing.
Seeing this, Shi Qiusheng suddenly laughed, which made Gu Jiu feel chills running down his spine, and he retreated quite consciously.
As soon as he went out, those who had been watching the excitement immediately came to join him.
"Xiaojiu, then..."
"Auntie, I advise you to stay away." Before the man could speak, Gu Jiu interrupted: "Gu Zheqi kidnapped this girl, and now he is here to settle the score, and he may even have to meet the official. . Look, my cousin, who left home early, was found and pulled back to lead the way. You... aunt, please walk slowly, don’t fall! "
Hearing that they were here to settle accounts, the eight or nine people ran away before Gu Jiu finished speaking.
"Xiao Jiu, what happened?"
Gu Jiugang was about to go find the village chief, but turned around and saw the village chief walking from the intersection.
"Gu Zheqi kidnapped his daughter."
"What?"
Hearing this, the village chief looked at the people in the yard in disbelief and whispered: "Why is he so brave? He turned into a kid without even looking at his family background?"
Gu Jiu nodded tiredly.
"But village chief, you came just in time. I was just about to find you. Do you know where we can hide people in our village? Or where would Gu Zheqi hide people if he wanted to?"
The village chief thought for a moment, then made a fist with his right hand, unfolded his left hand, put his hands together and said, "Old Gu Temple."
Gu Jiu: "Huh? What is that place?"
"A ruined temple that has been abandoned for hundreds of years."
"Can you take me to see it?"
"Of course."
Just as he finished speaking, the servant stepped forward to stop him and said, "Little girl, you can't leave until our master nods his consent!"
"Then go and talk to your master and tell him that I will go find someone first, or if you are afraid that I will run away, you can come with me."
Hearing this, the man took a small breath of cold air, poked his head in and looked at it for two seconds, then nodded to Gu Jiu: "I'll ask two people to go with you."
"good."
Village Chief: Am I the only one curious about what’s going on inside? This suppressed whimpering made me a little curious.
"Village Chief, stop looking, we need to leave."
"Let's go."
The Lao Gu Temple was indeed some distance away, and the four of them walked for about twenty minutes before they saw the ruined temple.
"That's the one in front." The village chief said, pointing to the shadow of a house not far away.
Gu Jiu nodded and looked at the little fresh soil that was drawn out on the ground, suddenly feeling uneasy.
"Wait a minute, let me go in and take a look first. Miss Shi is a woman after all, and it is not good for her to be seen by a foreign man."
When approaching the ruined temple, Gu Jiu stopped and said.
The two servants looked at each other and nodded. Since the surrounding area was wide open, they were not afraid that Gu Jiu would escape and he would not be able to do his job. As for the village chief, he has no objections.
Xu was mentally prepared, but when he saw Shi Yuyan, Gu Jiu couldn't help but froze on the spot. After he calmed down, he was filled with overwhelming anger.
After taking off her coat and putting it on Shi Yuyan, the latter suddenly woke up, yelling and hiding back.
"Miss Shi, it's me!"
Listening to the increasingly clear footsteps outside, Gu Jiu quickly stepped forward and used his coat to forcefully surround Shi Yuyan.
"It's okay, Miss Shi, I'm here to take you home!"
After seeing Gu Jiu clearly, or seeing clearly that it was a woman who was protecting her, Shi Yuyan immediately stopped struggling and burst into tears.
"Miss, are you okay?"
"ah!"
"Get out! Hurry up! Why are you standing there stunned?" Gu Jiu turned around and shouted at the three people who rushed in.
The three people were startled, and after going out, they realized what had happened.
"You stay here, I'll go back and notify the master!"
In the ruined temple, Gu Jiu patted Shi Yuyan's back, comforting the person in his arms over and over again.
"It's okay, Yuyan, everything is over. It's just a dream. When you wake up, everything is over."
On the other side, Gu Zheqi's legs were covered in blood and convulsing on the ground.
"Temple, temple..."
A servant paused next to Gu Zheqi's ear for a while, then stood up with questions in his mind. wonderful? It’s all been marinated, isn’t it wonderful?
"What did he say?"
"He said... it was cool."
Shi Qiusheng: "..."
"Hang him up!"
"yes."
…
"Master, master! The lady has been found!"
The servant who came back to report the news stumbled back and shouted.
When he heard this, Qiu Sheng dropped the whip in his hand and strode out: "Where is it?"
"At Lao Gu Temple."
"Lead the way quickly!"
"yes!"
When Shi Qiusheng arrived, Shi Yuyan had already fallen asleep in Gu Jiu's arms.
"Yu Yan! Yu..."
"She just fell asleep!"
Gu Jiu turned around and motioned to Shi Qiusheng to take off his coat. Shi Yuyan could be said to be completely naked now. It was okay to sit like this. But once she was picked up, Gu Jiu's coat couldn't cover her completely.
After carrying the person into the carriage, Gu Jiujian and Shi Qiusheng briefly talked about the general situation and gave a suggestion.
"Miss Shi's mood is too high now, and she won't be much better after she goes back. If you insist on asking for a solution, the suggestion I can give is to let her sleep a little longer."
"Use medicine or other methods to let Miss Shi sleep for ten days and a half, and then let her wake up after the injuries on her body are completely healed."
Shi Qiusheng's eyes were solemn and he said, "You want to make her think that the previous memory was a dream? Can she believe it?"
"No." Gu Jiu shook his head and continued: "But she must be in pain when she wakes up. If you want her to continue living, then she needs a lie that gives herself enough time to digest the pain."
After a long silence, Shi Qiusheng finally nodded. Then he got into the carriage without saying a word.
"This Gu Zheqi is such a fucking bastard! He can actually do such a thing!"
Looking at the carriage getting further and further away, the village chief said angrily from the side.
Gu Jiu didn't say anything. That kind of situation couldn't have been caused by Gu Zheqi alone, it would have taken at least three or four people.
"By the way, Xiaojiu, aren't you going back to the city with them?"
"No, let's take advantage of this time to make a few spinning machines." He also took the opportunity to see if Gu Wensheng would come back.
"Okay! Xiaojiu, you can come to my house later to see if the village chief's hair is up to standard!"
"ah?"
The village chief smiled sheepishly and explained, "Isn't it because your brother Cheng went to the city to study? I just wanted to save as much as I could."
Gu Jiu nodded to express his understanding.
On their way back, the two of them passed by Mr. Gu's house. As soon as they reached the intersection, they heard Mrs. Gu sobbing at the top of her lungs.
"You deserve it."
"Indeed, such a person should have no descendants."
"That's right, this kind of person is...Xiao Jiu, what did you just say? This, this Gu Zheqi, he, he, that?"
Gu Jiu nodded. Based on her understanding of Shi Qiusheng, it seemed that he would do such a thing.
village head:! ! !
"Stop looking and leave quickly. It will be very troublesome for them to see us now."
"Oh, oh, ok, ok."
The village chief looked away in shock. Only then did he understand what Old Mrs. Gu had been shouting. By the way, that group of people just now were so cruel. Well, you didn’t know that the girl’s life was chopped off when she was... or something like that?
