"It came fast enough."
Early in the morning, some thin mist came up from the mountains.
The man was wearing a black robe that was tucked in at the waist, and there was a condensed aura around his waist. He stood under the eaves and listened to his subordinates reporting the situation from the mountain in front of him. Instead of anger, he laughed.
From the very beginning, this game was aimed at Gu Juefei.
It's just that he never thought that the other party would come so quickly.
The letter was sent out, but it didn't take long. It's still half a day before the deadline, right
"Then the subordinates are acting according to the plan?"
The visitor glanced at him cautiously, lowered his voice and asked, with a murderous look hidden in his eyes.
The man thought for a while and looked back.
The room not far away is the house where Lu Jinxi has been staying for the past few days. At this moment, the door is half-open, and she is sitting at the table drinking the porridge that he brought, but her eyes are always on his side. Not shy.
So he laughed and waved, "According to the plan."
"Yes."
The subordinate responded, coming faster and leaving faster.
After a while, the person disappeared into the courtyard.
Of course Lu Jinxi saw it too.
But soon his eyes were withdrawn and he turned to the door.
After dismissing the subordinate, the man quickly paced back, with a faint smile on his cold and determined face: "Congratulations to Madam."
Congratulations
The words he said frightened Lu Jinxi.
She has almost drank the porridge, and now she is just playing with the rough spoon between her fingers, but her fingertips tremble when she hears the words. After the words have been repeated in her mind, they have turned into a really bad idea. The "good news" of the news.
"It seems that the fool Gu Juefei is here."
I can't tell the feeling in my heart, it's just like overturning the five-flavor bottle, a little happy, and a little ridiculed, thinking that Gu Juefei's head is probably broken, Lu Jinxi laughed.
"It's not me who should be congratulated, it's you, right?"
The simple word "fool", in another context, is contempt and ridicule, but at this moment in the ears of a man, it actually adds a vague tenderness.
Unfortunately…
This little bit of tenderness was not caused by him, nor was it left to him.
The palm behind his back was quietly grasped, the expression on the man's face did not change, he only said: "When someone came to report just now, your good eldest son, Gu, is only five miles away from this mountain, and now I am afraid It's already at the front of the mountain. Madam has finished her porridge, so come with me now. It's a guest from afar, so you have to 'entertain'."
entertain
As soon as I heard it, I knew it wasn't a good thing.
The corners of Lu Jinxi's eyes twitched slightly, and her fingers tightened a little bit. Seeing that the person's face was not showing any feng shui, it was clear that he was planning to plot against Gu Juefei. In his heart, there was a sudden feeling of holding up the porridge bowl to cover his face. impulse.
But it fell instantly.
She knows too well that she can't beat her at all, and if she can't talk about it, she may anger the other party.
Impulsivity is often worth the loss.
So she took a deep breath and put on a bright smile on her face: "Then I'll ask you to lead the way. I've been in the yard these days, and I haven't gone out yet."
The clear and transparent eyes narrowed into the shape of a crescent moon.
It seemed that he was completely happy for Gu Juefei's arrival.
Such an expression, falling into the man's eyes, mixed with the previous two words, naturally created a particularly unpleasant feeling.
He fixedly stared at Lu Jinxi for a long time.
Lu Jinxi noticed it, but stood up without knowing it, and walked up to him, looking at him with the same smile as before: "Aren't you going?"
The man was more than half a head taller than her. At this moment, he lowered his eyes and looked down at her with ease. He could see her obedient eyebrows, so he gave an inexplicable laugh: "During my time here, you were very obedient."
These words were too abrupt, as if he knew her usual style and means of dealing with people and things, full of understanding and control.
Lu Jinxi frowned slightly, and then let go again in a flash.
She chuckled lightly as if she didn't take it seriously: "How can people not bow their heads when they are under the eaves? I still have more than half of my life to enjoy, but I can't die easily. Listen to your words, it should be."
After all, a scholar cannot meet a soldier.
Playing intrigues and ingenuity, she is definitely a good player, and she is not necessarily inferior to Gu Juefei if she is genuine. But people like "Lord Lan" in front of her are her natural nemesis.
Not much is known, and it is difficult to suppress.
So Lu Jinxi chose to be obedient.
Hypocrisy, like her, has never been a fierce gentleman who would rather bend and bend. On the contrary, she has always been first-rate in being hypocritical and condescending. When she is at a disadvantage, her first choice is to protect herself.
Although what she thought in her heart was how he would kill the person in front of her in the future.
Of course she wouldn't say those words.
The man looked at her for a long time, as if he was considering the authenticity of what she said, but he quickly retracted his gaze, turned around and walked out of the yard.
Lu Jinxi raised her eyebrows quietly and followed behind him.
When he was discharged from the hospital, a black-clothed subordinate next to him handed him an old coarse cloth robe. It was thick, similar to the one she had when she met him in Baoding that day.
The man took the robe over, but he didn't stop, he put it on himself as he walked. The good figure that was wrapped tightly in the black robe at the waist suddenly disappeared into a bloated body.
Lu Jinxi looked at it coldly, but a little thought flashed in her eyes.
It doesn't matter if the beard covers most of the face, and even the figure has to be hidden, but it's really careful...
Just in front of her, the robe was taken off originally, but now it is put on again
He is...
Afraid of being recognized by Gu Juefei
In this way, most of them are really old enemies that Gu Juefei knows.
The old enemy of the Huns
Thinking like this in her heart, she didn't show it on her face. She walked while observing the surrounding environment.
Under the feet is a long road covered with moss. It can be seen that no one has walked on it for many years. The footprints on it are very new. Obviously, "Master Lan" and the others stepped on it when they came.
Surrounded by dense forests, there are old trees at a glance.
At first, I didn't feel anything, but as the dense forest in front of me became thinner and the field of vision became wider and wider, Lu Jinxi's nerves became more tense, and his palms were slightly sweaty.
Gu Juefei…
A smart person like him would not have guessed that this was a game designed for him, but it happened.
She felt like she shouldn't have felt anything special about it.
After all, it is impossible for Gu Juefei to be a kind of good person. Since he can guess that this is a Hongmen banquet, and since he dares to come here, it is impossible to be unprepared.
But people are always vulgar.
This point, when Lu Jinxi bypassed the rock in front of her and saw Gu Juefei again after being apart for nearly ten days, it was suddenly imprinted in her mind extremely clearly.
People are always vulgar.
Even if you clearly know that a person dares to go deep into the tiger's den, you must have made arrangements for the backhand, and you have a trump card, but when you see him go through fire and water for you and take risks with your own eyes, you will still touch a little bit outside of reason. Sensuality and passion.
Naturally, it cannot be suppressed.
Just as she saw Gu Juefei at the moment.
He was at the mouth of the gourd-shaped canyon below, wearing a robe with a dark pattern of bamboo leaves and green, naturally holding a whip upside down, and straddled a tall white horse.
The back is as straight as ever.
The sky light fell from the crevices of the clouds, but no matter what, he couldn't integrate his figure with the surrounding mountains.
At this moment, Gu Juefei was lonely and out of place.
He sat quietly on the horse, and the horse also parked quietly in the same place. Behind him was a team of powerfully equipped men and horses, guarding five carriages with large boxes.
The moment the bandits appeared, his eyes were cast over him.
So of course, I immediately saw Lu Jinxi who was at the back, as if to find her whereabouts from the crowd. It was so easy, so natural that it was almost instinctive.
He saw her.
She saw him too.
