Chapter 107 Between Life and Death
"It seems that this alien race does have some abilities." Gu Zizhu said with emotion, "There are two eleventh-level big shots in this clan! Since the alien race came to the empire from the outer sea three hundred years ago, they have eaten human flesh and made human sacrifices. , we have done so many evil things! If the Blood Emperor had not led the generals to turn the tide, we would have been reduced to that group of alien domestic animals. "
"Third brother, tell me," Gu Ziyu looked around and whispered, "What state is the Blood Emperor in now? This time he can kill two foreign demon kings alone."
"It doesn't count to kill him alone." Gu Zizhu also lowered his voice, but when he got up to the topic, he said with a bright face, "The blood emperor's force has actually been able to suppress the two demons Tianqiu and Tianying. The main reason why they couldn't be killed was because these two demons were proficient in the art of space. As soon as they found out that they couldn't be defeated, they took important members of their clan and fled through the air. This is the most exciting part!" He He was so excited that he slammed the table and continued, "This time when the Blood Emperor fought against the two demons, when the two demons found that they couldn't defeat them and were about to run away, they found that they couldn't run away!"
"How is this going?"
"It was only later that I found out that the Blood Emperor has been studying the way of space for the past hundred years. Now the blood emperor's way of space is stronger than those two alien races! During the battle, he directly relied on his control of the rules of heaven and earth to forcibly He locked that space." Gu Zizhu clapped his hands and said with a smile, "It's like beating a dog behind closed doors. He killed both of them!"
"You are truly worthy of being the Blood Emperor!" Gu Ziyu said sincerely. As they spoke, the two got up and drank another big bowl.
Gu Zizhu took a big mouthful of meat and said excitedly: "The laws of heaven and earth are hidden deep in all things and are beyond all laws in the world. It is a miracle for the talented people in the past to cultivate one in their lifetime, and our blood The emperor actually cultivated several great avenues! Fifth brother, although you are a genius enough to enter the realm of heroes at the age of eighteen, we have to be impressed by the talent of the Blood Emperor."
"Third brother is right." Gu Ziyu said respectfully, "I have always understood the principle that there are people outside the world and there is a sky outside the world, and I have never dared to be arrogant."
When Gu Zizhu heard what his fifth brother said and saw his pious and steady face, he couldn't help but feel pity in his heart and said: "Hey! Why am I telling you this! I know your third brother. Even if everyone in the world You are as proud as an uncle, and you are also the most humble one in the world."
"Third brother is so flattering."
The scorching sun bounced off the mahogany table, reflected on Gu Ziyu's white clothes, and cast a luster on his face. Just from the look and feel, it looks like it is made of jade.
This situation reminded Gu Zizhu of the origin of his fifth brother's name. My mother told me that my fifth brother had another name when he was born. But three months after the fifth brother was born, he grew more and more like a little beauty; and other children kept crying, but the fifth brother was the only one who was born peacefully. He was really wronged, so he cried silently alone, never This made the elders worried, so he was very favored by his father, so he changed his name to Ziyu.
Ziyu Ziyu, having children is like jade. It couldn't be more appropriate to use it on Fifth Brother.
Gu Zizhu was stunned and realized that he had lost his composure. He took a sip of wine and continued: "What a coincidence that fifth brother is back this time! The emperor's selection of concubines once every ten years will be held in three days. At that time, beauties from all over the world will gather in the imperial capital. , it will definitely be a feast for the eyes!”
This is the most entertaining topic among men, and it is also the most common conversation topic at the wine table these days. Not only is it interesting enough, but it has nothing to do with the conversation, and it doesn't matter whether it's good or bad, so there's no chance of a bad chat.
But what surprised Gu Zizhu was that when Gu Ziyu heard "the emperor chooses his concubine", his face darkened, and his smile was a bit bitter and stiff. He remembered that the fifth brother's performance had been very low throughout the day, and he knew that something had happened to him outside. He couldn't help but rub the fifth brother's head and asked: "What's wrong, are you worried?"
When Gu Ziyu heard the third brother's caring words, he felt infinite sadness in his heart. He sighed, but just shook his head and did not respond.
"You don't have a girl you like, do you?" Gu Zizhu laughed, "Yes, you have reached the age to get married. But which girl can make you worry? Tell me quickly and let the three of you get married. Brother, I’ve seen a lot.”
"Third brother, don't embarrass me. Tell me about the recent developments in the imperial capital." Gu Ziyu came with a wine glass in hand, trying to change the subject.
"You're quite mysterious." Gu Zizhu poured a glass of wine into his stomach and said with a bad smile, "Since you won't tell me, let me let my brother guess! The one who can embarrass you must be from a third-grade official's family. Daughter, I guess. Those of similar age to you...let’s talk about those in the imperial capital first...from the Cheng family of Li Anxiang Mansion?"
"No." Gu Ziyu said helplessly.
"Wang Lishen offered sacrifices to the restaurant?"
"It's not..."
At this time, two women walked out of the silk shop opposite. The first one was veiled, but her expression and figure made Gu Ziyu startled: that was none other than Prime Minister Shui's eldest daughter, Shui Nanfeng.
After Shui Nanfeng took his maid into the carriage, he seemed to sense something. When he raised his head, he met Gu Ziyu's eyes. As soon as the two people made eye contact, the tenderness in their hearts was suddenly released.
At that moment, the two of them became the anchor of time, and everything in the world was just a passer-by.
And standing there with the two of them was Gu Zizhu, who couldn't hold up a bowl of wine. He knew that the person downstairs was the daughter of Prime Minister Shui's family, and he also knew that she was a show girl participating in the emperor's concubine selection.
Normally, the quotas for show girls are decided three years in advance. But she is different from ordinary beautiful girls. She was the person who was rumored in the palace a month ago and whom the emperor named to summon.
The Blood Emperor's women, even if they are just undecided beautiful women, everyone can talk about, praise, envy, and like. The only thing that cannot happen is that you abducted this woman's heart.
This was a great disrespect to the Blood Emperor and a serious crime that implicated both men and women's families.
If this matter is true, not only the general's palace, but also the prime minister's palace will be changed.
…………
General's Mansion, ancestral hall, night.
"Snapped!"
The ruler hit Gu Ziyu hard on the back, followed by the old general's majestic scolding.
Gu Ziyu knelt on the cold and hard ground. Although she didn't say a word or a sound, her face was already filled with tears.
At the age of eighteen, he indeed already has the body of an adult, but in his heart he still has the simplicity and simplicity of a child, with a sense of friendship, respect, and an understanding of good and evil.
At this time, he was like a child who had made a mistake. He had lost all dignity and image, his jade-like face, and his usual statue-like beauty.
