Gu Shengchao passed by a house and heard someone whispering inside. He originally planned to ignore it, but he couldn't help but stop when he heard the words Dark Moon Hall.
Dark Moon Hall was so mysterious that he couldn't help but eavesdrop.
"What treasure was stolen?"
"I don't know either, but judging from his mysterious appearance, it's definitely not an ordinary thing."
"Well, don't care if he's worth anything, just steal it out while he's drunk and unconscious."
Gu Shengchao was about to jump up to the roof to find out what was going on when he suddenly stopped. He sensed more than a dozen auras coming towards him from outside the town.
There are differences between men and women. These dozen auras are obviously unique to women, and the women of Dark Moon Hall are inferior to men. If something is really lost, it is normal to find it.
There were several tall trees beside the street. Gu Shengchao quietly jumped up and hid in the tree canopy, just in time to see the scene in the courtyard of the house.
Two people in the courtyard sneaked to the window and were prying open the window carefully.
After a while, more than a dozen women ran over and stopped outside the courtyard wall. The two people in the courtyard had already opened the window. When they heard some movement outside, they squatted under the window and did not dare to move, for fear of disturbing the people outside.
"Is this here?" a woman asked softly.
The other woman nodded, and three people immediately jumped in.
The sudden change caused the two people in the courtyard to panic and get up to run away.
The scimitar in the woman's hand was already placed on the necks of the two of them. One woman asked sharply: "Who are you, and what are you doing here late at night?"
"We heard that he stole some treasure and tried to steal it while he was drunk." One person was so frightened that he wet his pants and there was a puddle on the ground.
The women looked at each other, and then the scimitar swung and wiped their necks.
Five people were left on guard outside the courtyard wall, and the rest all jumped into the courtyard. Perhaps they were used to seeing life and death and turned a blind eye to the two people lying in a pool of blood.
After a while, the drunk man in the room was dragged out, and a woman brought cold water and poured cold water on him to wake him up.
"Sisters, please forgive me. I really shouldn't have sneaked out. Please let me live." When the man saw the two boys lying in a pool of blood, he suddenly sobered up and knelt on the ground begging for mercy.
"I can spare my life, but just hand over what you stole." A woman raised her foot and hooked his chin, asking him to raise his head to speak.
The man was so frightened that he was sweating. He wanted to kowtow but couldn't, so he had to cry and said: "Sister, please forgive me, it was Jiang You who stole the things. I was just outside for fun. After the incident, he gave me a sum of money. I really don't know anything." have no idea."
A woman walked out of the house with a money bag in her hand: "Is this it?"
"Yes, yes, that's it. Sisters, just use it to buy rouge and spare my life." The man said flatteringly.
A woman asked coldly: "Do you know what Jiang You stole?"
"I really don't know. I was just coveting the money he gave me, so I agreed in a daze. I was really wrong." The man regretted it endlessly.
"Promise me not to reveal anything to outsiders." The leading woman stroked the man's head with her left hand and spoke softly, like a whisper between lovers.
"Definitely, definitely, I promise..." The man looked happy.
Before he could finish his sentence, the woman grabbed the man's hair with her left hand and cut off his head with the scimitar in her right hand and threw it aside.
In an instant, everyone in Dark Moon Hall left in an orderly manner, and the town returned to calm.
Ancient Sage Chao wanted to follow him to see what was going on in Dark Moon Hall, but then he thought that he was going to return to the Valley of the Four Kings immediately, so he had to see his wife and children first.
The next day went on non-stop, and at dusk Gu Shengchao finally rushed back to Qingguo Town.
Just as he was tying up his horse, a man from the town came over and handed him more than a dozen hot-painted letters, saying that at least two or three letters had been sent here every day recently.
The ancient sage was so curious that he immediately opened each letter and read it, and found that they were all personal letters written by the emperor of the Wu Dynasty. The content of each letter was the same, with only the word "Return soon".
Fan Lixin once healed his wounds in the Four Kings Valley and knew this address. It seemed that he should have told the emperor.
Thinking back to what the ever-changing Jiaochan said to Hong Ji in Erlang Mountain, saying that King Wu’s Palace would hold a hero meeting in the near future to invite heroes from all over the world, one can imagine the pressure the imperial court was facing.
After thinking about it, Gu Shengchao borrowed a pen and paper and wrote the words "Return immediately", put it in an envelope, wrote the address, and said: "If someone else sends a letter again, give this letter to him to take back."
Li Zheng agreed, but a postman had already arrived and said impatiently: "This is the fourth letter today."
Gu Shengchao stepped forward to take it and handed the written letter to the postman: "Brother, please send this letter back to the capital."
Seeing that the postman was a little unhappy, he immediately took out about five taels of loose silver and stuffed it into the postman's hand: "Thank you for your hard work, little brother."
The postman immediately changed his face and said with a smile: "Hey, sir, you're welcome, but I can only deliver it to the next post station, and transfer it to the capital one stop at a time. I will deliver it to the next post station overnight, and as for the rest, I will There’s no guarantee.”
"It's easy to say, thank you for your hard work, brother." Gu Shengchao handed over.
The postman turned around and headed back without stopping.
This time, Gu Shengchao successfully found the entrance to the Four Kings Valley. It was already time to turn on the lamp when he returned home, and Wanruo was feeding his children.
My daughter was really naughty. She held a small spoon in each hand, leaving rice grains everywhere on the table, body, face, and floor. She was babbling, making Wanruo busy but without any temper.
Gu Shengchao joked: "Oh, our daughter has started to learn martial arts now, and she is still a master of fighting left and right."
Wan Ruo was very patient in taking care of the child by himself. Gu Shengchao's return was like poking a hornet's nest, and he immediately said angrily: "Huh, you know how to make sarcastic remarks, but the child's disobedient temper just followed you, and he was as naughty as you were when you were a child. "
"It's unfair. We met later. When did you see me when I was a child." Gu Shengchao defended himself.
Wan Ruo glared at him: "Anyway, I was very good when I was a child. It must be you, the father, who has inherited this."
"Okay, okay, it's my lack of teaching that ruined Zhenzhen." Gu Shengchao knew that he couldn't defeat her, so he had to retreat instead of advancing.
Wan Ruo snorted coldly: "Anyway, it's your fault. Otherwise, why would the child have such a hard time eating?"
Gu Shengchao didn't dare to refute, for fear of inexplicably annoying her again, so he hid aside obediently.
Unexpectedly, Wan Ruo still refused to give up: "I know how to be lazy as soon as I come back. Didn't you see that I am busy? I don't know how to come over and help."
"Come right now." Gu Shengchao also lost his temper. Wanruo's temperament was uncertain. He couldn't figure it out and had to agree first.
Gu Shengchao patiently assisted, and the naughty little guy finally had his fill and sat down to play.
Wan Ruo was also relieved, and his irritable heart slowly calmed down.
Gu Shengchao packed up the table and cleaned the floor. Wan Ruo looked at him and said softly, feeling a little guilty: "I was a little anxious just now. Don't take it off or get angry."
"I won't be angry. It's hard for my wife to take care of the child alone. I should be considerate of you." Gu Shengchao has never really been with her since she had the child, and she is grateful from the bottom of her heart.
"I went to Erlang Mountain this time to find out any news?" Wan Ruo asked about official business.
Gu Shengchao told Xiang Hongji exactly how he killed Wu Shaoan, and finally said: "The head of the Poison Sect went to attend the Heroes Meeting held in Wuwang Hall, and the emperor also sent more than ten letters in succession urging me to return to the capital. I agreed. Return immediately."
Wan Ruo motioned for Gu Shengchao to sit next to her and said softly: "Since our Siwang Valley agreed to customize a coffin for the imperial court, we have actually surrendered to the imperial court, which is incompatible with the Wuwang Palace. Since there is a need there, you should naturally Go back, Brother Shan and I will take care of you, don’t worry.”
"You should also be more careful. Fortunately, the Poison Sect's vitality has been severely damaged, so it should not be detrimental to our Four Kings Valley in the near future." Gu Shengchao is also afraid of accidents.
Wan Ruo thought of something, took Gu Shengchao's hand and said: "A few days ago, a pillar of light suddenly appeared in the direction of Erlang Mountain, and the Four Kings Valley was also as bright as day. Brother Shan guessed that there was a sudden change in the sky caused by someone flying to the sky. You happened to be Have you heard any news about this over there?”
Gu Shengchao smiled and said, "If I say that person is me, will I believe it?"
"What?" Wan Ruo was stunned for a moment, then held Gu Shengchao's face with both hands, stared at him with a pair of beautiful eyes and said: "I knew you brat had some shitty luck, please tell me carefully how you did it."
The two were face to face, mouth to mouth, so close.
The ancient sage was so distracted that he couldn't help but kiss him. Just as he was about to let go, Wan Ruo held his face and didn't let go, instead biting his mouth.
But at this moment someone broke in, and the two of them quickly separated, but it was Wu Jun who looked intently.
Wu Jun broke into the good news between the two and immediately blushed.
"Uncle Master is back. Have you eaten, Junior Sister? I'm about to come over and clean up the dishes." Wu Jun was talking nonsense to hide his inner panic.
"The little guy has just finished eating. Your uncle has already packed it up, so you don't need to worry about it." Every meal was delivered by the disciples and cleaned up neatly. Wan Ruo was also a little embarrassed.
Wu Jun went over to pick up Zhenzhen and play with her. He thought for a moment and said, "Uncle has just come back tonight. Junior sister, it's better to go to my place. It's inconvenient for you to keep her with you because you have serious things to do."
Zhenzhen often plays with Wu Jun and doesn't recognize her as a stranger. She hugs her neck and smiles happily.
"You're the only one who talks too much." Wan Ruo seemed to be blaming her, but actually she was happy in her heart.
Wu Jun saw the master's thoughts and left happily holding Zhenzhen in his arms.
With only the two of them left in the room, something happened naturally.
Afterwards, Wan Ruo hugged Gu Shengchao and asked, "You didn't answer me just now. Have you really ascended to the sky?"
Gu Shengchao did not hide anything and told the story of that night in detail. Wan Ruo was very emotional after hearing this: "I thought that Xia Errong taught Feng Wu the Phoenix Sword Technique separately to save himself a hand, but I didn't expect that it was because of this. You kid can be considered the same." He had a conscience and did not abandon our mother and daughter."
She hugged Gu Shengchao tightly: "To thank you for your perseverance, I will reward you one more time."
"Help!" Gu Shengchao cried out in agony, but he still couldn't escape from Wanruo's clutches...
