Aunt Hong returned to the room and put away the ecstasy lamp. Li Gu rushed over and hurriedly opened the door and came in. He didn't care at all that this was the girl's room and was anxious to see Shi Jin. Aunt Hong naturally understood what Li Gu was thinking at the moment, and didn't pay too much attention to these etiquettes. She just put the box containing the enchantment lamp into the cabinet as if nothing had happened, then closed the cabinet door, locked it, and returned immediately. After coming to her senses, she welcomed Li Gu to Shaoyao's bedside. Aunt Hong moved a low stool and placed it beside the bed for Li Gu to sit on. Then she sat on the edge of the bed and said to Li Gu: " Well, this is the real Jiuwenlong Shijin,"
Li Gu did not speak, a doubtful expression condensed on his face. Only his eyes focused on the vivid blue dragon head on Shi Jin's chest. The dragon head was domineering and restrained, noble and extraordinary. It must be really It was the Canglong in the Nine Dragons. When Li Gu looked at Shi Jin's face again, he saw the sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes, which were very heroic, but... Li Gu couldn't help but frowned slightly and asked Aunt Hong in confusion. : "This... why does he look like a fool?"
Aunt Hong smiled and said: "He has fallen into my evil trap. I have already asked Ruiyun to get my soul-reviving herb. I am afraid that Ruiyun will be mischievous again," Aunt Hong said. He called to Cuizhu outside the door: "Cui Zhu, go and see where Ruiyun took the soul herb."
There was a sweet response outside the door, and then Aunt Hong turned around and said to Li Gu: "When the soul-reviving vanilla is brought, everything will be easy to discuss, right..." Aunt Hong remembered something and immediately He stood up and looked at Li Gu anxiously.
When Li Gu saw Aunt Hong like this, he immediately thought about it. He slapped his thigh and stood up as if on pins and needles, saying, "No, I asked someone to kill the senior official's mouth. Isn't that wronging him?"
Aunt Hong thought for a moment, made up her mind, and said seriously: "I'm afraid it's too late for you to send people to chase after you. Maybe you have already taken action now. Liu Tang has always done things quickly, so maybe Now that everything has been done, it's useless for you to be anxious. I just suddenly remembered that I was anxious, but..." Aunt Hong paused, put her hands on Li Gu's shoulders, and slowly Li Gu returned to the stool and continued: "Since you are determined to join the gang, you must have a certificate of surrender. At this time, it is best to use the heads of officers and soldiers to make a certificate of surrender. More than fifty officers and soldiers have been killed." , and then handing over this Guanxi Town is also a meritorious achievement that can be put on the stage. From now on, even if I go up the mountain, I can still sit in that top position. Do you think this is true?"
After Aunt Hong analyzed it one by one, the sorrow on Li Gu's forehead disappeared, and he even beamed with joy. Li Gu looked at Aunt Hong with a slight smile, and then looked at Shi Jin who was lying on his back, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but Li Gu showed a relaxed smile, as if a huge task in his life had been completed in an instant. Li Gu held his hands tightly together, venting this indescribable excitement.
Aunt Hong couldn't help but smile when she saw Li Gu's appearance. She opened her mouth to say something, but after all, the conversation turned to Shi Jin and said, "When you first brought that group of people here, I felt like this The boy is not simple,"
"Aunt Hong," Li Gu called Aunt Hong in a low and serious voice, and said, "Now we can't live together, big or small. What's going on? I'll pay back this kid, that kid..."
Aunt Hong used her hand to cover the corners of her smiling lips and said: "I understand, my Lord Li Gu, you are so serious even before you join the gang. If I scold him that day in the future, will you talk to me as a little girl?" Fall out and kill me again,"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Li Gu waved his hand.
Seeing that Li Gu was really serious, Aunt Hong stopped joking and said, "Look, you're so scared. He can't hear or see now. His head is in chaos. There's no need to be so silent. Look at you." Nervous,"
"How on earth did you do this..." Before Li Gu asked halfway, Aunt Hong interrupted him seriously and with a hint of warning: "Every big man has come to take charge of my little girl's backyard... "After that, Aunt Hong smiled again. Before Li Gu could guess what Aunt Hong was thinking, Aunt Hong brought the topic to Shi Jin: "Do you feel ,Shi Jin and that group of people are not from the same group,"
Li Gu raised his hand and twirled a small strand of beard on his chin, thought seriously for a moment, nodded his head slightly, and said: "When you say that, it really feels like that, but since we are not a group of people, Then why are we traveling together? Could it be that Shi Jin came to test us on purpose?"
Aunt Hong shook her head and said: "No, if Shi Jin dares to come alone, it shows that he is extremely sincere and will not act in such a double-dealing manner."
"What if those people are Shi Jin's men? We will kill them all. If Shi Jin wakes up, how can we explain the past?"
Aunt Hong smiled and said, "That's impossible,"
"Why, just because those people have official status," Li Gu said with a hint of worry on his brow.
Aunt Hong shook her head and said: "I didn't expect this..."
"Then what you're thinking of is,"
"Is it okay to rely on a woman's sixth sense?" Aunt Hong said, giving Li Gu a small roll of her eyes, and then said: "You are already determined to defect, and you are still afraid of this and that. I think your heart is not firm. Come down,"
Aunt Hong's words completely made Li Gu tremble all over. He couldn't help but stand up again, stared at Aunt Hong blankly, then slowly turned his eyes to look at Shi Jin, and then his eyes became erratic. Li Gu's No matter how deeply he hid his thoughts, Aunt Hong still saw through it. Although Aunt Hong said that Shi Jin had no feelings and would not know anything at the moment, Li Gu still shrank in the face of Shi Jin's half-open eyes. , as if the conspiracy had been exposed, he shrank and became uneasy.
Aunt Hong saw this and couldn't help but frown slightly. To be honest, Li Gu's appearance now was the first time that Aunt Hong had seen him in more than ten years of knowing him. He had no idea and was so submissive. The boldness and boldness of the past are completely gone.
Aunt Hong shook her head slightly and asked Li Gu softly: "Master Li, haven't you always yearned for the world? Haven't you always wanted to live that kind of carefree life? There will no longer be officials to force you to do what you don't want to do." Things, no longer need to follow the trend to adapt to the darkness of officialdom, now it will be realized soon, seeing that the old life is about to end, get rid of it, but, what is wrong with you now, what makes you cower, what is it? Will your mind become unstable, will you regret it?"
"I..." Li Gu was speechless for a moment.
Aunt Hong nodded, and then pulled out a small and sharp dagger from her back. Holding the tip of the knife, she brought the handle to Li Gu and said: "Life is like this dagger. One side is reality, and the other side is pursuit." , I can understand your current mood. When you go from the side of reality to the side of pursuit, you will inevitably have to go through a sharp blade, which will hurt you and kill you. However, nothing is absolutely correct. It all depends on now. As for you, if you regret it, then kill Shi Jin and take his head to the state capital to receive the reward. Your official position will rise and your financial resources will increase. If you are really determined to defect to Shaohua Mountain, then I beg you. Be strong and kill the demons of depression in your heart completely. Do you know that if you waver like this, you will end up ruining more than just your own life?"
Being enlightened and reprimanded by Aunt Hong, Li Gu's heart tightened even more. He tremblingly caught the dagger handed over by Aunt Hong, and looked at the shining dagger with dull eyes. Li Gu couldn't help but swallow the tip of the knife, took a deep breath, and seemed to have made a final decision. His eyes suddenly glanced at Shi Jin's face, and there was no movement in his hand. , Aunt Hong, who was so close at hand, was already alert. Her weak, boneless hands didn't know why. Following the movement of Li Gu's eyes, they immediately gathered strength, waiting for the opportunity to activate their strength. A palm towards Li Gu's heart can urge him there.
However, Li Gu looked at Shi Jin and did not make a move. He shook the dagger in his hand and handed it back to Aunt Hong, saying: "You are right, but you still underestimate me, Li Gu." , it’s not that I can’t give up my current life, but... on weekdays, I only take into account my own preferences, and never consider the feelings of my family members, nor care about their opinions and preferences, until I really make the final decision. At that time, I suddenly felt that this was no longer the time to talk and have fun. Once I made a decision, the fate of everyone in my family, from my wife to my servants, would all change with me. Are they willing to do this...Besides, I don't know the current situation of Shaohua Mountain. Will it be possible to move my family there...Sigh,"
Aunt Hong heard Li Gu's unclear expression and understood Li Gu's pain and difficulties. She stretched out her hand and patted his shoulder to give him a bit of comfort, while slowly sheathing the dagger. He stood up and said comfortingly: "Everything will be fine, believe me,"
"It's your sixth sense again," Li Gu said, smiled helplessly, exhaled, as if he had made up his mind and suddenly let go, and said: "Then I will believe you once,"
Aunt Hong looked at Li Gu like this and really didn't know what to say about him. Aunt Hong wanted to change the subject to change the atmosphere, but her mind moved to Shi Jin. But this time Aunt Hong thought about him one after another. Another thing happened, and her face couldn't help but become anxious. Aunt Hong stood up and said, "What's wrong with these girls today? They're so procrastinating in doing things. I've been urged to do it but they still don't come quickly. I'll go take a look."
After saying that, Aunt Hong was about to walk out, but before she could take a few steps, her body went limp and she fell to the floor...
