Ning Que pulled out the thorn strip in front of him, walked out of the flowerbed, stood in the smooth stone plaza between the courtyard, looked at Gu Xi in the chair, and asked, "I don't seem to offend you, why did you kill me
?”
Gu Xi slowly stood up from his horns, looked at him and said with a smile: "There are many things in this world that require reasons, and killing people is no exception. But people like us kill people and killing prisoners are different from those of the imperial court. They are not seen.
You must be offended by me. The reason I want to kill you is because in my opinion you should die."
Ning Que slowly and seriously began to roll up his sleeves, looked at Gu Xi not far away, and asked calmly: "I really don't know what damn reason I should have, so I would like to ask the military advisor for advice."
Gu Xi's face looked a little weird, with some wonderful cowardly feeling mixed in his smile. His short beards trembled slightly in the cold wind. He looked at Ning Que and laughed: "The people of the Censor Zhang Yiqi are Mr. Thirteenth.
Kill it?"
Ning Que rolled up his sleeves and paused slightly, shook his head and said, "I haven't heard of this person."
Gu Xi smiled and leaned forward and raised his thumbs up and said sincerely: "Mr. Thirteenth has no trace of killing people, even if he lies, he will not change his expression. You really shouldn't practice but should stand in the court.
Yes, however…”
As the words "Say" were said, the smile on his face suddenly faded away, and he was extremely cold: "Although Lin Ling and I didn't find any evidence, I know you were on Hongxiuzhao that day, especially when I learned that Mr. Thirteen was right.
My general seems to be unable to hide his murderous intention, that's enough, and you already have a reason to die."
"Killing someone not only requires reasons, but also benefits." Ning Que began to roll up the sleeves on his right arm, lowered his head and said, "I can't think of it no matter how hard I think about it. As the subordinate of General Xiahou, you are in Tuyang City.
What benefits can kill me, the disciple of Master, bring to you or General Xiahou?"
When he left Chang'an City and entered the wasteland until he returned, Ning Que often used his personal disciple to describe himself as a disciple when he talked to others, but the situation today is different.
He really couldn't figure it out that Gu Xi wanted to kill him. Isn't the other party worried that the academy and the empire's anger would burn him and General Xiahou, whom he swore to death, to ashes?
Gu Xi gently stroked his beard and said slowly: "Killing a student on the second floor of the academy will naturally take great risks, and naturally you will get great benefits. The biggest advantage is that you will never threaten it again.
General.”
Ning Que rolled up the sleeves of his right arm, and hung his fists on his legs to feel the coldness of the winter wind.
He looked at Gu Xi and shook his head and said, "This benefit is far from enough."
Gu Xi suddenly narrowed his eyes and said with emotion: "What is the purpose of following the general for half his life? The purpose is that the general can stand on the top of the world. However, when you two come to the academy, the general will be forced.
Gui Lao... Then I will follow Gui Lao too? Do you think I can tolerate such things?"
He looked at Ning Que's face, his eyes were cold and with a few crazy meanings from nowhere. Youyou said, "The general wants to return to old age, but I really don't want him return to old age, but unfortunately I don't have the right to overthrow him.
The agreement between you and Mr. Da, so what other ways do you have to destroy this matter besides killing Mr. Thirteen? Haotian is always so kind. As the weakest world in the history of the academy, it seems that
The most suitable ending is death.”
Ning Que realized at this time that the military advisor was actually a madman. He frowned slowly and shook his head and said, "But have you ever thought about it. Kill me Xiahou will not have a good end. Everyone in the world knows that you are his most loyal. A dog, who would believe that this is your own decision?”
Gu Xi gently put his palms together, sighed slightly with some excitement, and said, "So this is the best time. Mr. Thirteen, you are so weak, and everyone knows that Mr. Great has never killed him in his life. So when I kill you, I can still live, then I will always live, even if I live like a dog, until Chang'an City, to the court, and even in front of the Master, to take the general I recite this matter.”
Hearing the other party that the eldest brother had never killed anyone in his life, Ning Que was slightly stunned, and then he remembered his gentle demeanor in his daily life. He thought it was probably true, but after listening to the other party's second half, he couldn't help laughing. , said, "Although you don't want to boast, it's really a dream to just take the blame for killing me based on your identity."
Gu Xi shook his head and said with emotion: "As long as I am alive, I will tell the whole world that I killed the Thirteenth Mr. in the academy and has nothing to do with the general. I even have a way to make the whole world believe that I am from the Xiling Temple. So to kill you is to frame General Xiahou, so that the academy can break up with the imperial military!”
Ning Que looked at the satisfied expression on his face and shook his head and said, "It seems that you are really crazy. Although this strategy sounds like that, who would believe that you are from the Xiling Temple?"
The strange smile appeared on Gu Xi's face again and said, "People like you, Mr. Thirteen, probably won't believe it, but His Majesty the Emperor will believe it, the Empress will believe it, and the most important thing is that the Master will believe it.
Speaking of this, Gu Xi, the military advisor who is used to taking care of everything for the general in the dark, looked up at the dark winter sky, with a quiet smile on his face, and said with emotion: Because I am really from the Xiling Temple. ”
Ning Que didn't know what to say. He had struggled to survive in life and death since he was a child. He thought he had seen through the darkness and complexity of the world. However, at this time, he listened to Gu Xi confessing his original true identity and now for Xiahou. I realized that I still didn't have enough understanding of the complexity of this world.
He tightened the belt around his waist, confirming that it would not have any impact on the subsequent battle, then raised his head and looked at Gu Xi and asked, "But how can you confirm that you can kill me?"
Gu Xi looked at him with a playful look and said, "Because you are the weakest person on the second floor of the academy."
Ning Que sighed helplessly, thinking that this title would probably have been following him for many years.
He asked, "But my senior brother is now in Tuyang City."
Gu Xi replied: "You appeared in my mansion, and the eldest gentleman naturally thought you were here to kill me, so how could he care?"
Ning Que said: "By the same reason, does it mean that General Xiahou doesn't care about this matter?"
Gu Xi smiled and said, "You are right, so today is the best opportunity to kill you. Actually, I have been hesitating before whether to kill you. It just so happens that you are here, so I have to kill you."
Ning Que said: "For me, this is also the best opportunity to kill you. In fact, I have been hesitating whether to enter the mansion to kill you, but since you happen to be killing me, I have to kill you."
Gu Xi looked at him with interest and asked, "You already know why I want to kill you, but I still can't confirm why you must kill me? Can you ask Mr. Thirteen for advice?"
Ning Que looked at his face and remembered the oily note.
The guy who wrote the oil note was already dead, and the oil note had been destroyed by him, but he remembered the names on the oil note clearly, and in the very front position,
There are two words: Guxi.
Many years ago, military advisor Gu Xi was already the most loyal and insidious dog of General Xiahou. According to the information found by Xiao Heizi, and the Tianshu sect that Ning Que later secretly saw through his master, all
This shows that this military advisor is the contact between Xiahou and Xiling Temple.
Back then, it was this military advisor named Gu Xi who set up a plan for Xiahou that destroyed the entire family of General Xuanwei's mansion for treason. The villages that were slaughtered in Yan were also the idea of this military advisor for Xiahou.
With these reasons, Ning Que can kill him thousands of times.
However, at this time, he did not give any explanation for Gu Xi's questions.
The sleeves were rolled between the elbows, and the forearms were naked in the cold wind. The steady right hand reached behind the back and held the hilt. With a shiny sound, the white and long sword was pulled out, and the blade shone with a frost-like light in the cold wind.
Ning Que stepped across the courtyard with steady steps and walked towards the valley stream in front of the pine chair.
Gu Xi slowly narrowed his eyes, and his hands in the sleeves behind him trembled slightly. It was obviously not because of fear, but he didn't know what these bounced fingers were doing.
The sharp blade cut through the quiet courtyard, cut off the cold wind blowing outside the wall, and slashed between Gu Xi's narrow eyes!
Gu Xi's eyes narrowed more and more violently, and his eyes suddenly fell like lightning, on Ning Que's left hand hanging beside him.
Ning Que held a secret bag between his left finger.
There was a powerful talisman in the tip.
It was the divine talisman left to him by Master Yan Se. In order to fight Ye Hongyu in front of the Demon Sect Mountain Gate, he used a powerful military advisor Gu Xi who faced Xiahou today. He activated the second without hesitation.
indivual.
However, the magic talisman in the brocade wife... could not be activated!
Gu Xi's eyes narrowed into two slits, and the faint light in the slit was so slight.
Countless talismans with different auras burst out from his sleeves behind him, instantly stirring the heaven and earth vital energy in the courtyard to turbulence and restlessness. Countless extremely subtle vital energy torn apart and flowed across the bodies of the two.
Gu Xi, a military advisor under General Xiahou, who is known for his insidious strategy... is actually a rare powerful talisman master in the world!
Those milky white spaces control the flow, like the black holes appearing on the ground, the energy of heaven and earth is like flowing water, passing rapidly and quickly. It is better to lack the connection between the power of thought and the tip, so it is so disturbed that it cannot keep the flow for a moment!
The slender and slender knife in his hand seemed to be trapped in a mud in the seemingly transparent space, difficult to move. Although it is not far from Gu Xi's face, it seems that it will never get close to it.
As if I sensed the incredible chaotic meaning and the flow of heaven and earth in the courtyard, the air above the mansion became solemn and suppressed. I don’t know which cloud was crushed into snow and slowly fell to the ground.
A snowflake floated over Ning Que's eyelashes and landed on the back of his hand that was shaking slightly with the hilt of the knife, melting instantly.
The situation between the scene was extremely tense, and Ning Que's situation was extremely dangerous. However, when the snowflake fell, his eyelashes did not blink for a moment, and his eyes were still calm and focused.
