Yun Heng raised his hand and took it out, then took Gu Changan's hand, clasped it on her wrist, and said: "This journey must be extremely dangerous, so use this to protect you."
"I remember that your archery skills were very good. I wonder if the same applies to using a crossbow?"
She saw a small and very concealed hand crossbow clasped on her wrist like this. Craftsmen who could make such a weapon were very rare, and in Jingguo, martial arts were not respected, so craftsmen of this level were even harder to find.
I don’t know where Yun Heng found the craftsmen.
She unconsciously touched the crossbow with her left hand, raised her lips and said, "I think it should be similar to when I use a bow and arrow. I will adapt to it myself."
Putting his fingers on Gu Changan's right wrist, he sighed and said, "I'm still worried about the injury on your right hand. If you can use a crossbow, don't use your right hand to use a weapon. Do you understand?"
"I understand." Gu Changan nodded.
He couldn't chat with Yun Heng for too long, because the people below were still waiting, so Gu Changan could only reluctantly go down the hill. When he returned to the carriage, he didn't expect that Fang Yan was still there guarding him.
He frowned when he saw the cloak on Gu Changan. Even if he was blind, he couldn't forget that Gu Changan never had this cloak on him before he went to the top of the mountain.
Moreover, if you take a closer look at the smooth lines and embroidered dark patterns on this cloak, you can tell that it is of extraordinary value.
Who did Gu Changan go to that mountain to see? Fang Yan couldn't help but step forward and asked: "The eldest lady ran out for no reason and came back wearing a cloak. Where did this cloak come from?
?”
There was jealousy in his eyes.
Seeing the value of this cloak, he knew that it was something he could not afford to give away in his lifetime, so he was sure that some man must have given it to Gu Changan, otherwise he would not be so secretive and not let people get close to him.
.
Where did this wild man come from to dare to steal his prey?
"Where did this cloak come from? It doesn't seem to have anything to do with you, right?" After experiencing Liu Weiqing, and now looking at Fang Yan's eyes, Gu Changan was very clear.
Fang Yan is now determined to be the Gu family's son-in-law in the future, but he dares to talk to her in a seductive tone?
Simply ridiculous!
Gu Changan glanced at Fang Yan mockingly, "I remember I just reminded Mr. Fang, don't do things you shouldn't do. Watch your mouth and don't ask so many questions."
"The eldest lady misunderstood. I was just worried that the eldest lady would be deceived, so I asked this question." Fang Yan gritted his teeth and finally chose to restrain himself here.
He knew that arguing with Gu Changan now would not bring any good.
"Then let's set off." Gu Changan waved his hand.
She didn't even bother to give Fang Yan a look and got on the carriage directly. Fang Yan, who was eagerly waiting for Gu Changan's return, became a complete clown.
Fang Yan clenched the reins of the horse in his hand, stared deeply at the carriage for a long time, then exhaled and drove the horse forward unwillingly.
The convoy set off again.
In the carriage at the front, Gu Weirou lowered the curtain, turned to Bai Yuluo and said, "Mom, I just saw Gu Changan come back, and he actually has an extra cloak on him!"
"What cloak?" Bai Yuluo frowned.
Gu Weirou carefully described the appearance of the cloak.
Bai Yuluo was shocked: "If you can afford such a cloak, who is the person Gu Changan met just now?"
"No matter who that person is, the one who can make Gu Changan go to meet him specially and hide like this must be Gu Changan's lover!" Gu Weirou pinched her finger bones and turned white, and said jealously, "What kind of person is this?
Can anyone like a bitch like Gu Changan?"
Although she was far away at that time, Gu Weirou could still see how beautiful the cloak on Gu Changan was. You must know that Gu Weirou has not been able to wear a cloak like that after returning to the Gu family for so many years.
Although the Gu family is well off, they cannot allow Gu Weirou to squander it casually, not to mention that the shop and everything they rely on for survival have been taken away by Gu Changan, and now Gu Weirou's life is not as good as that of ordinary noble ladies.
She said with jealousy on her face: "Why can Gu Changan still be so chic now that we are so down and out, mother! I want that cloak on her too!"
Bai Yuluo knocked on Gu Weirou's forehead angrily, "Why are you comparing these things with her? If Gu Changan can't come back this time, then those things of hers will still be yours."
"But……"
"Okay, now that she has left the capital, without the Imperial Master's Office and the Su family, she is just a piece of fish on our chopping board. You just have to be patient for the time being. After we deal with her, we will find a way to put her in the shop.
After everything has been plundered, what can you not have when the time comes?"
Bai Yuluo held Gu Weirou's hand, and her soft voice soothed Gu Weirou's anxious mood.
Gu Weirou thought about it carefully and thought it was so good. She lay dependently in Bai Yuluo's arms and said, "Mom, how are you going to deal with this Gu Changan?"
"Don't worry, you'll know when you get further away from the capital!"
Hearing what Bai Yuluo said, Gu Weirou also felt relieved. It seemed that Bai Yuluo was really confident, so Gu Changan must be in trouble!
Over here, on Gu Changan's carriage.
"Miss, is this cloak given to you by the Imperial Master? I'm afraid only the embroiderers in the palace can embroider the stitching!" Iris praised repeatedly, admiring the cloak on Gu Changan and couldn't put it down.
Shaoyao smiled and said: "It seems that the Imperial Master is really fond of the young lady."
Gu Changan smiled and did not answer.
Compared with this cloak, Gu Changan felt that the unknown hand crossbow on her wrist was more reassuring. Yun Heng weighed her current situation before choosing a hand crossbow for her, which is suitable for concealment and has high lethality.
.
Gu Changan knew Yun Heng's thoughts.
This journey will take a long time, and there will be a lot of walking from the capital to Lingyin Temple. Moreover, they are still riding a carriage instead of riding a horse, so the journey will be even more time-consuming.
Gu Changan was no exception to this, but she lifted the car curtain and took a look at the scenery outside, but her expression was not very good.
Xueying noticed something strange about Gu Changan and asked with concern: "Miss, what's wrong?"
"Don't you think our convoy is moving too slowly? It's almost dark outside, and we haven't even reached half of the distance, yet we are wandering on such a remote road."
Outside the carriage, dark clouds covered the sun, as if a storm was coming, and there were tall old trees on both sides of the road, stacked on top of each other, and it was almost impossible to see the end.
And it was very quiet, so quiet that you could almost hear the sound of their carriage moving.
