Chapter 29
Chapter 29: Bicycle Ask the Side
Jin Lan asked Gu Du: "You really don't hate them anymore?"
Gu Du whispered, "How could it be that I don't hate? I wish I could cut them into pieces! But what's the point of killing them? It can't change the fact that I was lonely back then. If you keep them, everyone will say that I, Lord Gu, be kind and do not care about past grudges. At the same time, I also found three coolies for you, so you can use them at will."
Jin Lan looked at him admiringly, felt his hot gaze, Gu Du turned his face to look at her, Jin Lan quickly turned his gaze away, pointed to the stall on the street in panic and said, "I want that clay man."
After staying with Jin Lan for two days, Gu Du returned to the palace and met the high priest. He reported: "I came back to deliver the letter by the order of the soul master Chu Qin, but I met a bandit on the way, and the disciple ate the soul master's letter."
The high priest said, "Tell me in detail."
Gu Du told him about what happened in Zhenbei Pass and what happened to him. Li Xia stood beside him and kept looking at him. As he told him, he was sometimes shocked and sometimes worried.
The high priest asked, "What is written in Chu Qin's letter?"
Gu Du replied: "I dare not read the letter, I don't know what is written on it."
The high priest nodded and asked again: "Then what did Chu Qin say to you before you came back?"
Gu Du hesitated for a moment. Can Chu Qin say what he said to him to the high priest? If he talks to different people, there should be different words. If he tells the high priest what Chu Qin said to him, will it cause unnecessary trouble?
The high priest asked, "What are you thinking?"
Gu Du replied: "Disciple is thinking that the Soul Lord speaks casually to his disciples, and the disciple is the person involved, but the disciple does not know how the Soul Lord reports this to the high priest, and he dare not speculate without authorization. Therefore, the disciple does not dare to repost what the Soul Lord said to the disciple to the high priest, for fear of making mistakes."
The high priest smiled and said, "No wonder Chu Qin insisted on being a child servant. You are indeed different."
Gu Du lowered his head, and the high priest said again: "Assassin came out of the pass and killed Tong Shi, and the assassin turned out to be a soldier in the reinforcements in the rear. This matter is very important. It seems that I am going to go to Zhenbei Pass. Gu Du, has your injuries healed?"
Gu Duying said, "I am not at hindrance, I am willing to return to Zhenbei Pass with the High Priest."
The high priest said, "Okay, go and clean up and set off tomorrow morning."
"Yes." Gu Du agreed and said, "High Priest, I have a request for you. After you leave the city tomorrow, can you let your disciple go home?"
The high priest asked, "Don't you have no family?"
Gu Du replied: "This time, he escaped from the bandit camp. Thanks to a woman's help, her name is Jin Lan, one year younger than her disciple, and she is also an orphan without fathers and mothers. Therefore, the disciple recognized her as her sister and placed her at home. The disciple will return to Zhenbei Pass with the high priest tomorrow and want to say hello to Jin Lan to avoid her concern."
Li Xia changed her face, frowned slightly, and felt a little aggrieved with her lips.
The high priest said, "So that's the case. It's the right thing to be a vengeance. But the big thing is important, so you don't have to go back by yourself. I will send someone to inform her. And you originally said that you don't have family members, so it's fine. Now that you have family members, I will send someone to bring her into the inner city to settle. You don't have to worry about this matter, I will arrange it."
Gu Du bowed and replied, "Thank you, the High Priest, my disciple, for leaving."
Li Xia pouted and watched Gu Du leave. The high priest smiled knowingly and called out: "Li Xia."
Li Xia quickly bowed and replied, "Disciple is here."
The high priest said, "Carry it out and go to Zhenbei Pass with me tomorrow."
Li Xia was delighted and quickly replied: "Yes."
The next day he set off. Gu Du thought it would be a horse team surrounded by the front and back, but the high priest took a carriage. The one who drove the carriage was his eldest disciple Dongfang Xuan. Li Xia rode on the horse and followed the carriage, with an empty horse next to it.
Gu Du went to the car to salute and said, "High Priest, please forgive me for being too much for my disciples, and there may be bandits on the way."
The high priest replied in the car, "Don't be afraid, get on the horse."
This time is different from the march. The high priest walked during the day and did not leave at night. If he caught up, he would stay in the inn. If he couldn't catch up, he would stay in the big car shop.
Dongfang Xuan was responsible for the high priest's daily life. Lixia had nothing to do, so she served Gu Du, which made Gu Du very uncomfortable and said to her: "Li Junior Sister, you and I are both children's servants, how can you make you serve me? You are so disgusted by this."
Li Xia replied with a smile: "You are my savior, and I should do whatever I do for you."
After three days of traveling, after passing Linshan County, more than a dozen people rushed out of the front, holding machete hatchets in their hands, and the leader said loudly: "Leave your belongings and spare your lives!"
Gu Du pressed the handle of the knife with his hand and was about to urge him to step forward, but he heard the high priest say in the car: "Get out of the way, don't block the way."
The dozen people responded and divided into two groups and stood on both sides of the road.
Gu Du rode by the horse and looked at the bandits on the right in shock. He found that they all looked dull and like sleepwalking. He couldn't help but feel shocked. The high priest was so powerful!
After traveling another day, I met a group of bandits, and the words of the high priest, all the bandits were given to both sides of the road.
Dongfang Xuan said: "Soul Lord, there are more bandits than before."
The high priest sighed and said, "I have fought hard for years, and have suffered money. Most of them are pitiful, and they always have to find a way to live."
Dongfang Xuan said: "If you take force and rob others, you will cut off your life path. They will live, and others will live."
The high priest said, "If you meet again, you can deal with it yourself."
Dongfang Xuan replied: "Yes."
After traveling for two more days, he encountered a group of bandits blocking the road. Dongfang Xuan waved his hand and more than a dozen people flew out at the same time.
Gu Du rode his horse and followed the car. When he saw the bandits who fell to the ground, they all had their eyes wide open and their orifices were bleeding.
The high priest said, "Your intention to kill is still so strong."
Dongfang Xuan replied: "We must first settle the country when fighting foreign countries. The rebels are rampant. In order to protect the territory, the people have exhausted everything. These people have committed evil and rebellious, which makes the already difficult situation even more embarrassing. Moreover, if they have no food to live, they can join the army and serve their lives without having to rob others. Doing this is no different from killing the enemy, and they are also loyal to the country."
The high priest sighed and said, "Stop fighting by fighting is never a good deed. Besides, the soul master should not be too determined to kill, otherwise it will easily infect the soul army and cause abnormal changes."
Dongfang Xuan replied: "Yes, my disciple knows his mistake."
Gu Du's heart moved, and what the high priest said was that the soul control master and the soul army had a similar mind. If the soul control master had a strong killing intention, the soul army would definitely have a strong killing intention. The soul army was not a living person, who knew what they would do?
After traveling for another two days, he entered Zhenbei Pass and the high priest went directly to the General's Mansion.
When he heard that the high priest had arrived, all the soul masters came to pay their respects one after another.
