Chapter 293: The sudden killing intention

Chapter 293: The sudden killing intention

Chu Qing felt that he was probably thinking in the wrong direction. This idea was indeed a bit far-fetched.

After all, if Hua Jinnian was a woman disguised as a man, how could Chu Qing not see it with his keen eyesight after experiencing so many things together?

Morally and logically, this is probably impossible.

As Gong Yangchou finished his words, Bai Yushu also fell silent.

Finally he looked at Chu Qing:

"This is the situation. The Third Young Master is very intelligent. Please say something fair."

Chu Qing smiled when he heard this:
"This is actually not difficult. What Brother Bai said is understandable, and what Brother Gongyang said... is not without reason.

“In that case, how about leaving this decision to Miss Gu?
"After all, she is the person involved. Brother Bai feels that since she is now in charge of the Ghost Emperor Palace, it is impossible that she cannot even make a decision for herself, right?"

"This……"

Bai Yushu was stunned and found that he really couldn't refute this statement.

Gong Yangqiu laughed:
"Third Young Master, that's brilliant!"

Bai Yushu said that Gu Ling'er was already sixteen years old and could take on responsibilities, be in charge of the Ghost Emperor Palace, and become the person in charge.

Since you have such abilities and decisiveness, how could you not even have the ability to make decisions for yourself?
If this is true, how can she preside over the Ghost Emperor Palace?
If Bai Yushu said again that he could assist in presiding over the Ghost Emperor Palace...

That's a big problem.

There is a hidden meaning of 'using the emperor to command the princes' in it.

Therefore, Chu Qing used Bai Yushu's own words to defeat him, leaving him speechless.

I could only look at Gu Ling'er.

Gu Linger then looked at Chu Qing in surprise, and a smile suddenly appeared on her gloomy face:
"Second Brother, please go back. I don't want to go back."

Bai Yushu was silent for a long time after seeing this, and finally sighed:
"Forget it, since the lady said so, I have nothing to say."

After saying that, he stood up and clasped his fists towards Chu Qing:
"The Third Young Master is indeed amazing. I have seen him today. I hope we can meet again in the martial arts world."

Finally, he glanced at Gong Yangqiu and snorted:
"Farewell."

After saying a lot of things, he turned and left.

Immediately, someone from Tongtian Villa escorted him away. After they had completely disappeared from his sight, Gong Yangchou slammed the table and said with gritted teeth:
"The wolf's ambition is obvious!"

Chu Qing glanced at him silently:
“Actually, judging from what he said, there aren’t too many problems.

"Brother Gong Yang, why do you have to be so cautious?"

Gong Yangqiu glanced at Chu Qing, smiled bitterly and shook his head:

"Third Young Master, it's not that I'm on guard against him, it's just that he's not trustworthy."

"Where do you start talking about this?"

Chu Qing asked softly.

Gong Yangchou hesitated for a moment and spoke in a deep voice:
“The third young master is not an outsider either, and he has a close relationship with Senior You.

“Since this is the case, I can’t hide it.

"In fact, I suspect that my second senior brother is colluding with the Tianxie Cult..."

Chu Qing's heart skipped a beat:
"This matter is of great importance. Brother Gong Yang, do you have any evidence?"

"If there is real evidence, how can we allow him to run rampant until now?"

Gong Yangqiu shook his head:
“But before that, I once encountered an incident where he had a secret meeting with an outsider in Tongtian Ridge.

“But I only saw him from a distance at the time, and when I got closer, the man had already left.

“I asked him about it and he said I was wrong…

“I didn’t care at the time, but I can guarantee that my eyesight may not be as good as that of my senior brother, but I’m not so bad that I can’t make a mistake.

“Later, I never saw Second Senior Brother having any disputes with other people, so I never took this matter to heart.

"But then there was something that happened that still sends chills down my spine when I think about it today."

"whats the matter?"

"On the day that Second Master's Wife was abducted, I saw Second Master Brother go to her yard."

Gong Yangqiu said to Chu Qing:

“Don’t be fooled by the Bai Yushu I saw tonight. He was gentle and modest, like a fine young man in this world. But the Bai Yushu that night was extremely sneaky… In all these years, even I saw Bai Yushu like that for the first time.

"Afterwards, the master's wife disappeared."

"So you suspect that your Second Master's wife's disappearance is also related to this person?"

Chu Qing's expression changed slightly, and he felt a little strange.

“I dare not make this assertion…but after that, Master’s wife disappeared, and Master also left Tongtianling in order to seek a way to rescue her.

“Every time I see Bai Yushu, I get a creepy feeling and know there must be something strange going on.

"I didn't dare to investigate further, so I took the young lady away from the Ghost Emperor Palace and came to Tongtian Villa."

Gong Yangqiu paused for a moment, picked up the teacup and took a sip, then said:

“I’m afraid something has really happened to Senior Brother, and he will never be able to leave the Ghost Emperor Palace.

“Although Bai Yushu only said that he wanted the young lady to go back and take charge of the situation, the problem is that I’m afraid she won’t be able to do anything by herself once she goes. No matter what, I can’t hand the young lady over to him.

"It is also thanks to the Third Young Master's heroic action, otherwise, I am afraid that this night would not have ended peacefully.

"He was concerned about the young master's reputation, so he retreated."

After saying that, he clasped his fists and bowed to Chu Qing.

Chu Qing waved his hand:

"It's all considered as one night's room fee at your place."

Gong Yangqiu was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly:
"If the Third Young Master is so generous, then I will make this ill-gotten gain."

After saying that, he and Chu Qing smiled at each other.

Chu Qing then asked:
"You said earlier that you wanted to tell me about Bai Yushu after you came to Tongtian Villa, isn't it?"

"This is not..."

Gong Yangqiu clapped his hands:
"Bring it up."

A moment later, two servants came into the hall carrying an iron cage.

When Chu Qing saw the person in the cage, his face darkened slightly:

"Brother Gong Yang, what does this mean?"

Chu Qing didn't recognize the man. He looked young, about eighteen or nineteen years old.

At this time, his body was curled up in the iron cage, and he seemed to have had a sweet dream, with a smile on his face.

But it is not difficult to see that this person has suffered a lot, and there are bruises on his face and hands that have not completely subsided.

Gong Yangqiu said quickly:
"Third Young Master has misunderstood. He was not caught by us...but...but..."

When he said this, he felt a little conflicted, and there was a bit of weird expression on his face.

Chu Qing wondered:

"You tell me..."

"He ran to Tongtianling by himself."

Gong Yangqiu said helplessly:
"Third Young Master and the two behind you have come all the way deep into this place, and they know that Tongtian Ridge is filled with gods and ghosts, and it is not anywhere else.

“The mountain roads are also very rugged and difficult to navigate… It can be said that if an ordinary person rashly enters Tongtianling, he will die in Tongtianling within a day or two, or three to five days at most.

“But this person relied on his extremely tenacious spirit to hold on all the way to Tongtian Villa.

"You can see that he still has scars on his body that haven't healed yet, but... when I first saw him, I thought he was not a human, but a ghost."

Chu Qing felt like he had heard something ridiculous...

It can make a group of people who are pretending to be ghosts think they have seen a ghost.

This is still an ordinary person. Chu Qing couldn't help but look at this man again. His hands and feet were very rough. Looking carefully, he found many calluses on them.

There were still traces of scratches on his legs from walking in Tongtianling, caused by rocks, ice and snow, weeds, vines, etc.

Judging from his appearance, he must be a man with a miserable life.

Chu Qing raised his head and asked again:
"But even so, you can see now that he is a human and not a ghost, right? Why do we need to lock him in a cage?"

"That's the problem."

Gong Yangqiu said in a deep voice:
"This man didn't know what had happened to him before, and he felt very uncomfortable when he was asked to lie in bed to rest.

“Lying on the ground, I tossed and turned.

"It was not until later that I found him sleeping soundly in his dog cage, and I understood the problem.

"So he had someone build this iron cage for him to rest in, and he really slept very soundly.

"Even if you and I discuss and observe him here, he won't wake up."

Chu Qing frowned when he heard this.

This person must have been abused for a long time, which is why he developed such a habit.

Perhaps he used to live in a cage.

Only by living in a cage can you avoid being beaten... and sleep peacefully?

Thinking of this, Chu Qing sighed and said to Gong Yangchou:

"Brother Gong Yang, show me this. What exactly is it..."

Gong Yangqiu said seriously:
"The biggest crisis in Tongtian Ridge is getting lost.

“So we rarely saw ordinary people in the past…Now that we have seen this person, we can tell from his condition that he must have suffered a lot of inhuman torture.

“But…there is no place for him to survive in the Ghost Emperor Palace.

"We can't follow him back to see what he went through. We can't even give him justice...

"It would be easy to hastily drive him away, but I'm worried that this might cost him his life.

“So, didn’t you meet the Third Young Master?
"Please ask the Third Young Master to help send him back to Lingbei and give him a good resettlement."

Chu Qing thought about it for a while, and actually nodded:

"Okay, I'll take this on."

It cannot be said that there is no chivalrous spirit at all, but it is not the main reason.

As the saying goes, where there is oppression, there is resistance.

Seeing this man running all the way to Tongtian Ridge and even walked to Tongtian Villa, his seemingly escape was actually a form of resistance.

Chu Qing wanted to see who was oppressing him.
Among those who are resisting, is there anyone willing to pay a killer to help them get rid of this "mountain" pressing on their heads?

If so, wouldn’t that be another profit?

Gong Yangqiu didn't know what Chu Qing was thinking, so he immediately stood up and clasped his fists:

"Thank you very much, Third Young Master."

After finishing talking about this matter, Chu Qing asked Gong Yangchou and others about their subsequent plans.

Gong Yangchou said that something must have happened to his senior brother. Bai Yushu didn't say anything, and Gong Yangchou didn't dare to let Gu Ling'er go back with him.

But can the two of them secretly go back and see whether their senior brother is dead or alive?
Chu Qing nodded upon hearing this and did not ask any more questions.

If I keep asking, I'll probably end up in a trap... Not to mention that we don't have a very deep friendship with each other, the muddy water in the Ghost Emperor Palace is not easy to wade into.
So after chatting for a few minutes, Chu Qing said goodbye and prepared to go back to rest.

Tomorrow morning, if Gong Yangchou and the others are willing to lead the way, then let them take our group with them.

If you don't want to, just borrow a Si Nan from the Ghost Emperor Palace from him.

I made up my mind to sleep till dawn, but as soon as I lay down, some images flashed through my mind.

Chu Qing opened his eyes suddenly, and felt a burning sensation in his body.

"It's bad, it's bad... I haven't eaten meat for many years and I don't know the taste of meat. Now I can smell it and even taste a little bit of meat. How can I suppress it?"

The images in his mind and the feeling on his skin that seemed to have never left made Chu Qing feel uneasy for a moment.

In this state, he didn't even dare to sit cross-legged in meditation, for fear that his true energy would go astray and he would go crazy.

After struggling for a while, Chu Qing made up his mind:
"You do it on the first day, don't blame me for doing it on the fifteenth!
"A real man should endure when he needs to endure. When he can no longer endure, there is no need to endure any more!!"

He encouraged himself a little and sneaked towards Wu Qianhuan's room.

He had made up his mind that if Wu Qianhuan had already fallen asleep, he would just turn around and leave without disturbing her… But if Wu Qianhuan was also like him, tossing and turning in bed, he would wish to be with her right away.

Then just knock on the door... and see if she opens it.

Just as I was thinking about the various responses after opening the door or not, Wu Qianhuan's room was already in front of me.

His voice was so soft that Wu Qianhuan didn't notice it.

But one could hear Wu Qianhuan tossing and turning like a pancake, and it was obvious that she couldn't sleep either.

Chu Qing knocked on the door gently.

The room suddenly became quiet.

The two people in the room and outside the room all seemed to have their acupoints pressed.

After a while, Chu Qing heard stealthy footsteps. When they reached the door, Wu Qianhuan's voice came from inside the door:
"Who?"

"I."

With a creak, the door opened.

Chu Qing went in quickly, stuck his head out to look around, and made sure that no one noticed before closing the door.

When he turned around, he saw Wu Qianhuan trembling all over.

But she was covering her mouth and laughing...

"why are you laughing?"

Chu Qing was speechless at her laughter. What was so funny?

"Between you and me... we already have a marriage certificate, and Uncle Chu has also come to my City Lord's Mansion to propose marriage. Although we haven't gotten married yet, it can be considered legitimate."

Wu Qianhuan pinched Chu Qing's sleeve and got into his arms:
“But what are we doing?

"Steal?"

"Ahem... As the saying goes, a wife is not as good as a concubine, a concubine is not as good as a secret lover, and a secret lover is not as good as not being able to steal..."

Chu Qing came casually.

"I bother!"

Wu Qianhuan put her hand over his mouth:
"How can you speak so much nonsense and glibly? Do you still have the demeanor of a Mad Blade Master?"

"At a time like this, what kind of demeanor do you need?"

Chu Qing picked up Wu Qianhuan and carried her horizontally, then walked directly towards the bed.

Wu Qianhuan hugged Chu Qing's neck tightly, put her head close to his arms, and whispered:

"You...please have some pity on me..."

Chu Qing nodded gently:

"Don't worry, I..."

Before he could finish his sentence, a sharp sound of breaking wind suddenly rang out, and flames filled the sky.

It's a rocket with a burning arrow, falling from the sky!

Chu Qing choked back the second half of his sentence and cursed angrily:
"Fuck him, I'm going to fuck him!"

There was a burning rage in my heart, and I suddenly felt the urge to kill...

As the saying goes, it can happen once or twice but not three times. If it happens three or four times, even Buddha will get angry!
