Gu Xifeng's pressure was much lessened after winter came, and the affairs of the Seven Kills Camp began to be handled in an orderly manner.
It wasn't that Gu Xifeng's ability had been improved and he became more handy, but that he discovered something while chatting with Bi in Xingxiu Guard.
In addition to being responsible for the daily security of the Seven Kills Palace, the Xingxiu Guards are also responsible for helping the commander-in-chief handle various matters of the Seven Kills Camp. Huang Xin specifically ordered the Star Guards not to help Gu Xifeng after handing over the affairs of the Seven Kills Camp to Gu Xifeng. When handling things, the managers in various places also report directly to Gu Xifeng, which is called to train Gu Xifeng to become a talent quickly.
Gu Xifeng's nose was so angry that he went to Huang Xin to settle the score. Only then did Huang Xin return the Seven Kills Camp to normal, and Gu Xifeng became much more relaxed from then on.
Gu Xifeng had always dealt with matters at the Seven Kills Camp impartially, but as the Spring Festival approached, Gu Xifeng did something unprecedented for the sake of personal gain, which was to summon the monkey back to the sect.
In the past few years, the two brothers had hardly seen each other. Even if they did meet, they didn't stay for long before going their separate ways. Now that Gu Xifeng could control the task allocation of the disciples of the Seven Kills Battalion, it seemed logical to let the monkey come back to celebrate the New Year.
On the twenty-ninth day of the twelfth lunar month, Gu Xifeng finished a day's work and returned to his residence in the Seven Kills Camp. He rubbed his head as he walked. There were a lot of things going on in the Seven Kills Camp these days, and the Taichu Dynasty was very uneven.
Emperor Taichu Li Boqian is now full of ambition and virtue, with strong troops and horses in Yingzhou. Taichu has more than a million elite soldiers under his command, plus the power of Qingyantang and Xinghe Sect, forming a powerful force capable of conquering the world.
The friction between Dongxia and Taichu has become more and more intense. It seems that a war between the two parties may break out at any time. Since the beginning of winter, Taichu and Dongxia have continuously dispatched troops to the border. The number of troops facing each other has exceeded one million.
Li Boqian was no longer satisfied with the Qing Dynasty only sending masters to the Taichu Dynasty, and asked the Qing Dynasty to directly send troops into Yingzhou. The Qing Dynasty readily agreed, but was opposed by many Taichu ministers, including direct ministers supported by Li Boqian.
The Xinghe Sect also strongly opposed Qinghe's sending troops, but Li Boqian had no doubts about the Qinghe people, and despite all opinions, he still led the Qinghe army into the territory of Taichu.
The Qing and the Kuomintang sent 300,000 people into Yingzhou, and divided their troops into three groups to station at the southern, northern and western borders.
The Xinghe Sect had no choice but to let the Seven Kills Battalion continue to send out spies to keep an eye on the movements of Qinghe's army.
This is also the main reason why Gu Xifeng has been busy recently. He always feels that there is a shadow shrouding Taichu Dynasty and Xinghe Sect, but he still hasn't found any clues.
While Gu Xifeng was thinking about the connection between various things in Yingzhou, he opened the door of his residence. When Gu Xifeng walked into the house, a figure appeared silently behind him. His reaction was not unpleasant, and he quickly came out. The opponent blocked his attack with his arm, then quickly stabbed Gu Xifeng with a dagger.
Gu Xifeng was startled and hurriedly measured his body and hid, but the opponent was unreasonable and flew towards him again. The assassin was dressed in black and his face was covered, and his speed seemed to be faster than Gu Xifeng.
Every attack by the assassin was at a tricky angle, aimed directly at Gu Xifeng's vital points. Gu Xifeng drew two fighting daggers into his hands, dodging or blocking to prevent the enemy's attacks from falling on him.
The more he struck Gu Xifeng, the more surprised he became. It seemed that all of his moves were seen through by the other party. Even though he felt that the other party's weapons were ordinary and not as sharp as his own fighting dagger, he was not at all interested in the assassin. Method.
When the two of them reached a deadlock, Gu Xifeng suddenly noticed another figure coming towards him at a high speed from behind. He was so frightened that he had to jump up with all his strength to avoid the attack. The two assassins did not let him go and attacked him together. Gu Xifeng attacked from the air, but Gu Xifeng had to use the rebound of the wall to suddenly change direction to avoid the two's combined attack.
At this time, he also saw clearly the appearance of the second assassin. This man was taller than a normal person, and his figure seemed to be more bloated. He was also shrouded in a black night clothes, and the exposed hair seemed to be golden.
Seeing the two men attacking him again, Gu Xifeng hurriedly shouted: "Monkey, you're not done yet, are you?"
The shorter assassin paused when he heard this, and then stopped another assassin with golden hair.
The man pulled off the black cloth covering his face and said with some surprise: "Xifeng, have you seen all this?"
"Do you still need to look at it? This is the Seven Kills Camp. If an assassin can sneak into the Seven Kills Camp and assassinate me, then the entire Galaxy Sect should have fallen." Gu Xifeng rolled his eyes and said.
"Yes, hey, that guy Huang Xin actually found out that he asked me to go back to the sect for the New Year. This obviously means that I want to spend the New Year in the sect." The assassin said with a smile on his face.
"Monkey, it's not Huang Xin who asked you to come back. How could Huang Xin be so kind? Now I have the final say on the affairs of the Seven Kills Camp."
"Holy shit, Huang Xin died? Are you now the commander of the Seven Kills Battalion?" Monkey said with a shocked look on his face and confusion.
Monkey is now a young man of sixteen or seventeen years old. He is a little short and thin, not outstanding in appearance, and has a very reserved temperament.
"Don't talk nonsense. If Huang Xin hears it, we won't be able to bear it. He is currently busy taking over as the leader. He will temporarily leave the affairs of the Seven Kills Camp to me."
"What? You said that Huang Xin wants to be the head of the Galaxy Sect? Is it too late for us to defect from the sect? This guy must not break up the sect?" Monkey said with an unbelievable expression on his face.
Gu Xifeng just smiled unnaturally, but it could be seen from his expression that he agreed with the monkey's words.
"Who is this?" Gu Xifeng looked at the other assassin next to Monkey and said.
"Hey, you know this guy too, come and take a guess," the monkey said pretending to be profound.
Gu Xifeng pondered for a long time, but still didn't guess the answer correctly.
"Xifeng, I haven't seen you for a few years, but you don't have a bright head. Isn't this my spiritual beast Xiao Jinzi?" The monkey tore off the black cloth covering the face of the man in black, revealing a face full of golden hair. The face was revealed.
"Xiao Jinzi already has such strength?" Gu Xifeng was shocked. You must know that judging from the skills Xiao Jinzi just showed, the gap between this guy's strength and that of Monkey is not that big.
"Haha, that's awesome. I've found a treasure. Xiao Jinzi is really a good helper for me. Don't be angry if you tell me. You have a better understanding with this little guy than we do." Monkey said with a proud look on his face.
Gu Xifeng had a dark look on his face, he actually compared him with a monkey, and he had never done so before.
Just when Gu Xifeng was about to refute a few words, a figure appeared outside the door. The person who came was one of the Xingxiu Guards.
"Senior Brother Bi, why are you here?" Gu Xifeng said in surprise.
"If you don't welcome me, then I can leave..." Bi turned around and was about to leave when he heard this, but when he saw the monkey, he said with some joy: "Little monkey? Why are you back?"
"Hey, senior brother Bi, I haven't seen you for a long time, and you actually recognized me at a glance." Monkey walked up and said with a smile on his face.
"It's hard for people to forget your shady look. The other person with this look is Master Killer!" Bi curled his lips and said.
Monkey was speechless for a while, and someone actually said that he was very similar to Huang Xin.
"Senior Brother, let's get down to business. Why are you here with me?" Gu Xifeng said solemnly, because the news of the monkey's return has not yet spread, so Bi came here to find himself. There should be nothing good about a sudden visit at this time.
"Don't be nervous, it's not a big deal. There is news from Zaojun Pavilion that someone is looking for you and the monkey." Bi Gu Xifeng looked a little funny as if he was facing a powerful enemy, and said unhurriedly.
Gu Xifeng's brows did not relax, but fell into thinking.
There seemed to be only a few people who came to Zaojun Pavilion to look for them, and these people were all people Gu Xifeng missed very much.
Before Gu Xifeng could speak, Monkey spoke first: "Is Sister Huai Shi back? I haven't seen her since she joined the Tanlang Camp. Xifeng, come on, let's go and have a look."
Monkey's guess coincided with Gu Xifeng, who also felt that the person coming was Jiang Huaishi, because Taozi had come to the Seven Kills Camp to take care of him, and she should have mastered the method of entering the Seven Kills Camp.
Gu Xifeng shook his head helplessly and ran in the direction where the monkey left. When he ran to the edge of the woods, the monkey gestured at Xiao Jinzi a few times, and Xiao Jinzi left happily.
The monkey came to the door of Zaojun Pavilion with excitement on his face, and Gu Xifeng followed closely. When the monkey saw him clearly, his smiling face immediately dropped.
Outside Zaojun Pavilion, a tall young man was waiting. He was quite handsome and well-proportioned. He exuded a murderous aura. The two short swords carried behind him made Gu Xifeng and Gu Xifeng even more convinced that he was coming. who is it.
Tang Jinge, the guy who once won the first prize in the Galaxy Sect trial, joined Tanlang Camp more than five years ago, and has not been heard from since.
"I haven't seen you for so many years, and you two don't seem to welcome me?" Tang Jinge said with a smile on his face.
"Where's Sister Huaishi? How did you know you could find us here?" Monkey asked doubtfully.
"Of course Huai Shi told me. When I come back this time, I naturally want to meet you old friends." Tang Jinge said with a smile that he thought was very friendly.
"Who is an old friend of yours? Leave as soon as possible, otherwise I will be rude to you." Monkey said angrily.
As soon as the monkey finished speaking, when neither Gu Xifeng nor Tang Jinge spoke, a sudden change occurred, and a huge weapon was thrown at the monkey. The monkey was naturally very skilled and easily dodged it.
However, the owner of this huge weapon seemed to have no intention of stopping and kept swinging at the monkey. The monkey could only dodge with its own speed.
As he continued to dodge attacks, the monkey had determined that the weapon was a giant hammer, and the owner of the weapon was now revealed. It was Jiang Huaishi whom he had not seen for many years. Thinking of this, the monkey's expression immediately became excited again.
