Chapter 40: Chapter 40 (6.17 Second Watch)


After deciding to go find Gu Chusheng, Chu Yu immediately ordered people, prepared banknotes, dry food, weapons and medicinal materials, took a casual doctor and the secret guard given to her by Wei Yun, and left the house overnight.

She traveled day and night to get to Kunyang first to meet up with Wei Qiu.

Gu Chusheng had always believed that "the most dangerous place is the safest", so he might not leave Kunyang immediately.

He should stay in Kunyang for a while first.

After letting Yao Yong relax his vigilance, he set off on the road.

After Chu Yu and others arrived in Kunyang under a pseudonym, Wei Qiu led Chu Yu to the place where Gu Chusheng disappeared.

Now the water situation has slowed down a lot compared to the previous few days.

Wei Qiu pointed to the place where Gu Chusheng fell into the water and said: "He That’s where he jumped.”

"You won't see anyone after you jump in."

Chu Yu looked at the river and looked at the surroundings.

Wei Qiu frowned: "The person suddenly disappeared."

Chu Yu said nothing.

Chu Yu was familiar with this moat.

After all, she and Gu Chusheng had lived in Kunyang for many years.

The stone lion guarding the moat was actually hollow below.

The river passed by and submerged the bottom.

But it can give about half a person more space, and the opening above the stone lion is where the air flow passes, which is a perfect place to hide people.

If a person is struggling to go somewhere in the river, he must at least come up to breathe.

He cannot just disappear.

The only possibility is that Gu Chusheng did not go far at that time and was hiding here.

The way into the stone lion's belly was a bit tortuous, and Chu Yu couldn't explain it clearly for a while, and he was worried that the people going there didn't observe the environment carefully enough, in case they missed any marks left by Gu Chusheng.

So Chu Yu looked at the stone lion, had someone tie a rope around her waist, and climbed down herself.

After falling into the river, she held her breath, came to the hollow position under the stone lion, and then stuck her head out.

It was daytime at this time, and the light fell from the lion's mouth, and Chu Yu could clearly see the mottled blood stains on the wall.

The blood stain didn't seem to have been there for a long time.

After Chu Yu looked at the color and amount of the blood, he roughly confirmed that Gu Chusheng was not poisoned or seriously injured.

When she was about to leave, she suddenly saw a symbol.

The symbol was carved with something sharp.

It looked extremely small, but Chu Yu could still identify what the symbol represented.

East.

Chu Yu reacted.

This was actually a secret code she created when she was playing with Gu Chusheng and Chu Jin.

Later, she often used this method to communicate with Gu Chusheng in emergencies.

But at this moment, why would Gu Chusheng leave such traces here?

Is it him and his own people?

Are you using this as a code word now, or are you saying He knew she was coming Chu Yu was stunned.

It was a bit ridiculous for a moment.

Gu Chusheng actually expected her to come back to him at this time.

Yes, the fifteen-year-old Chu Yu was infatuated with him.

He was not stupid.

He knew her friendship clearly.

Now that he was in trouble and he had surrendered to the Wei Mansion, he would naturally guess that she would come to him.

Chu Yu couldn't help but find it a little funny.

This man thought too highly of himself.

She was already married, and he thought she was so charming.

Chu Yu dove into the water and swam back to the shore.

Chang Yue and Wanyue hurriedly came forward to set up the curtain and let Chu Yu change clothes.

Then they heard Chu Yu holding the sword and saying: "Go upstream to find it."

Gu Chusheng was injured.

In fact, it would be easier to swim downstream.

To swim upstream, he would have to go against the water.

He didn't know where he got the strength to do such a thing.

But this choice is indeed safer.

Chu Yu is not surprised by Gu Chusheng's choice.

He has always been a desperate person, forcing himself into desperate situations not once or twice.

Chu Yu led people to search all the way upstream, and soon heard someone shouting: "The branches here are broken."

Chu Yu rushed to the edge of the river, brushed aside the branches and checked for a moment, then twirled a handful of soil, sniffed it carefully, then stood up and said: "Let's go."

The soil smelled like blood, and it must have been that Gu Chusheng passed by here.

It's just that he is always careful, but he can't even remove the traces until they are clean.

This shows that his situation is indeed not optimistic.

Gu Chusheng left the mark "East" for her, and she kept looking for it along the east side.

Not long after walking, she heard someone say: "Madam, there are rags here."

Chu Yu glanced at the blood-stained steps and saw that Chang Yue had swept away.

A moment later, Chang Yue's voice came: "Madam, there are broken branches here, they should have gone from here."

Chu Yu said nothing.

Gu Chusheng's accidental mistakes may exist, but they left traces of broken steps and broken branches that clearly guided the route.

Impossible, it's not his character.

Chu Yu thought for a moment, looked towards the east where no one was passing by, and said calmly: "Continue searching eastward."

Everyone was a little surprised.

There was indeed no trace of human beings in the east.

But no one dared to say anything, so they followed Chu Yu and searched eastward.

After searching into the night, everyone was a little tired.

Chang Yue found a cave and came out with Chu Yu and said: "Madam, let's go to the cave and rest for the night."

Chu Yu was also a little tired.

After answering, Wei Qiu lit the torch and walked into the cave.

The secret guards of the Wei family opened the way, and Wanyue Changyue and Chu Yu's men followed to protect them.

Chu Yu was walking in the center, holding a sword, and his steps were a little unsteady.

After searching like this for a day, Chu Yu was also a little tired.

She wanted to take a rest early and then search again.

Wei Qiu led the people into the cave.

The cave was rugged.

Wei Qiu said respectfully: "Madam, be careful where you step."

As soon as Chu Yu stepped into the cave, at this moment, the torch in Wei Qiu's hand suddenly went out.

Before Chu Yu had time to react, someone pulled her into his arms.

A sharp knife was pressed against her neck.

In the darkness, she Hearing Gu Chusheng's voice become hoarse, he said in a hoarse voice: "Don't move."

He smelled of soil and blood, his breath was short, and he was obviously very weak.

The hand he touched her body was hot and hot, which was particularly obvious compared with the coldness of the tip of the knife.

Chu Yu was speechless.

Wei Qiu lit the torch and saw Chu Yu being held hostage by Gu Chusheng in front of him.

Gu Chusheng held a sharp knife in his hand and said coldly: "No one moves, otherwise I can't protect this lady."

Before he finished speaking, Gu Chusheng's eyes fell on Chang Yue's angry face, and his voice suddenly stopped.

After a moment, he realized who it was.

It's Chu Yu.

It was Chu Yu who he thought about day and night and tried his best to return to Huajing to meet.

His heart was beating so fast that he didn't know what to say for a moment, until Chu Yu's cold voice sounded: "Take the knife away."

Upon hearing this, Gu Chusheng hurriedly put away the knife and hid the knife in his sleeve.

Chu Yu immediately retreated from her, and Wei Qiu hurriedly stepped forward to stand between Gu Chusheng and Chu Yu, saying coldly: "What do you want to do?"

Gu Chusheng's eyes fell on Chu Yu and he couldn't move away at all.

Fifteen-year-old Chu Yu does not have the last life of death in her previous life.

At this moment, she is still full of vitality and lively.

Even when she actually sees her, she suddenly feels that fifteen-year-old Chu Yu is still alive and active.

Yu still had a calmness and calmness that he didn't have later.

Why didn't I see it back then?

Gu Chusheng looked at Chu Yu in front of him and looked back at himself as a young man.

He spent twenty years entangled with Chu Yu, and twenty years after Chu Yu's death, he recalled the time when Chu Yu was alive, and then in this memory, he indulged and chased little by little until he couldn't extricate himself.

The young man was too proud.

He clearly liked this person at that time, but he felt deeply powerless and embarrassed every time he was rescued by her.

She is not a person who speaks politely.

She is so straightforward that she can't even think about what she said.

It would be fine if he were an ordinary person, but he had experienced a family change and had such a sensitive temperament.

So every unintentional word she said would become humiliation and ridicule in his heart.

When they were being chased, she carried him and ran, smiling with him and saying, Gu Chusheng, you are too weak, like a big girl, you will still have to rely on me for food in the future.

Thinking about it now, such words were so cute, but back then he only felt humiliated and angry, so he went back to pick up the sword, and practiced swordplay in the courtyard every afternoon until she could no longer defeat him.

They missed too many years until she died.

He habitually pretended to be calm, but he slowly recalled the past in the silence day after day.

Until he died under Wei Yun's sword, he thought in a daze, "If Ayu was here, she would not be willing to see him like this."

At that time, I suddenly realized that if I really didn’t like it at all back then, how could I have practiced hard in the courtyard every day for many years just for a word?

When he looked at Chu Yu who was talking to Chang Yue in front of him and raising his hand to touch the knife mark on his neck, he couldn't help but his eyes turned red and his lips trembled.

When Wei Qiu saw that Gu Chusheng remained silent and stared at Chu Yu, even slowly about to cry, he couldn't help but feel an inexplicable panic in his heart.

He took a step forward, blocked Gu Chusheng's sight, and shouted: "What are you looking at?"

Can you see me, the eldest lady of the Wei Mansion?"

In the aristocratic mansion of Huajing, there is only one person who can be called the eldest lady, and that is the woman in charge of the family's backyard.

Now that Liu Xueyang has retired and is no longer in charge, although Wei Yun has become the Marquis of Zhenbei but has not married yet, the title of first lady of the Wei Mansion falls on the former Crown Prince's wife.

Hearing this title, Gu Chusheng suddenly came back to his senses.

Seeing Chu Yu looking over, he hurriedly lowered his head and calmed down.

Afraid of being seen by others, he took a step back: "I'm sorry, it's inevitable to meet an old friend suddenly."

Gaffe."

He forced back the heat in his eyes, closed his eyes and calmed down, then raised his head again, smiled slowly at everyone, cupped his hands and said, "Gu Chusheng, I have met the eldest lady."

Chu Yu said nothing.

She looked at Gu Chusheng in front of her and felt that the person in front of her was a bit strange.

She looked at him.

He had never been very fond of smiling at her in the past.

Gu Chusheng was a man who was good at dancing outside.

Everyone said that he had a good temper, but he had never been kind to her.

He was either sarcastic or indifferent.

But at this moment, he was looking at her quietly, with the moisture still in his eyes and an almost perfect smile on his lips.

However, that smile did not make people feel hypocritical.

Instead, it made Chu Yu feel that he seemed He seemed to want to face her in the best possible way.

When Chu Yu thought of this, he felt ridiculous.

She restrained her wild thoughts, walked out from behind Wei Qiu, saluted Gu Chusheng, and said respectfully: "I have met Mr.

Gu, and I have come here on orders from the Marquis of Zhenguo to protect Mr.

Gu when he enters the capital.

I wonder how Master Gu is doing at the moment and whether he can set off immediately."

Chu Yu's cold attitude stunned Gu Chusheng, but he understood immediately.

Chu Yu is a very responsible person.

Since she married Wei Jun, even if Wei Jun dies, as long as she remains the eldest lady of the Wei family, she will protect the reputation of the Wei family and will never do anything that damages Wei Jun.

It's a matter of family reputation, let alone doing anything to disgrace Wei Jun.

When she became Mrs.

Gu, she was also very demanding on herself.

There was a lot of quarrel at home, but she didn't even embarrass him in the slightest outside.

He was the person she had once arranged to elope with, so when she saw him now, she naturally had to keep some distance from him.

Gu Chusheng felt sad, but he also cooperated with Chu Yu.

He didn't say anything more and just said: "Okay."

As he spoke, he looked up at Chu Yu and said gently: "Whatever you say is fine."

Hearing this, everyone present felt a strange feeling in their hearts.

Chu Yu pretended not to hear anything, raised his hand and said: "Please, sir."

Gu Chusheng nodded, supported himself and walked out.

He was obviously injured, and his clothes were stained with blood, but he didn't say a word.

Chu Yu told him to leave, and he left.

Changyue and Wanyue knew the past between the two of them.

Although it was a bit strange, they could guess a little bit and didn't say much.

The secret guards of the Wei family couldn't hold it in any longer.

A group of people followed Chu Yu.

One of them couldn't help but stepped forward and said to Wei Qiu: "That thief looks wrong at Madam."

"Do you think I'm blind?"

Wei Qiu glanced over lightly, and Gu Chusheng's look could no longer be described as fanatical.

Wei Qiu held the sword in his arms and said in a cold voice: "But he doesn't do anything now.

Let's just watch him.

When we get to Huajing, the young Marquis will take care of him."

"What would he have done if he hadn't arrived in Huajing?"

Wei Qiu said nothing.

After a moment, he slowly said: "It depends on what the eldest lady wants."

While the guards were muttering behind, Gu Chusheng followed Chu Yu and went outside to lead the horse.

Chu Yu walked quickly and didn't take care of him at all.

He even became a little irritated because he followed him like this.

She didn't want to be involved so much with Gu Chusheng.

It was enough to involve her for a lifetime, and she would have to involve her for the rest of her life.

Don't even think about it Chu Yu couldn't help but quicken his pace, but Gu Chusheng followed leisurely.

His wounds bled because of his excessive movements, but he didn't feel any pain.

He followed Chu Yu and watched Chu Yu live beside him. , he felt a hint of sweetness coming over him.

Chu Yu walked to the horse and turned around to find that Gu Chusheng's wound was bleeding again.

She frowned and asked, "Can you really hold on?"

If she died on the way, her trip would have been in vain.

Hearing Chu Yu ask him, he was slightly startled, and then felt a huge ecstasy coming over him.

No matter how much she hides it, she still likes him after all He pursed his lips and lowered his head to hide his smile.

Chu Yu was so frightened by his move that his scalp went numb.

He always felt that the person in front of him seemed to have a brain defect and could not be regarded as a normal person.

"OK."

Gu Chusheng whispered: "Don't worry, if you are by my side, I will be fine."

Hearing this, Chu Yu suddenly had the urge to curse.

She also learned a lot of curse words in the military camp, but she changed it later when she became Mrs.

Gu and was corrected by him for many years.

Now that she saw him again, he was able to give her the ability to review her skills in such a short moment, which was considered a feat.

She turned her head with a stern face, got on the horse and said, "I think you are in good condition, get on the horse."

Gu Chusheng smiled softly, tilted his head and said, "Okay."

With that said, he tried to get on the horse.

But he was not strong enough and could not climb up several times.

The people around him were already waiting on their horses, so he was the only one struggling to climb up.

He didn't ask anyone for help, he just competed here.

Chu Yu didn't understand why Gu Chusheng was like this.

She felt a little confused and said in a cold voice: "Wei Qiu, help him."

Wei Qiu was stunned for a moment, then showed a look of disgust and raised his hand to help Gu Chusheng.

As soon as Gu Chusheng got on the horse, Chu Yu rushed out on horseback.

Gu Chusheng hurriedly patted his horse to catch up.

The horse jolted so hard that his lips and teeth were filled with blood.

Wanyue glanced at it and couldn't help but feel worried.

She had always been careful, so she went up to catch up to Chu Yu and whispered: "Mr.

Gu looks like It’s not good.

If it keeps going like this, Madam, why are you so angry?

You should wait until the young Marquis’s affairs are finished before you send any further comments.”

Hearing this, Chu Yu was slightly startled.

Yes, what does she have to be so upset about?

Now seventeen years old, Gu Chusheng didn't feel sorry for her in the slightest.

She stubbornly wanted to pursue him, but he struggled to refuse.

Apart from that, they didn't actually have much interaction before they were seventeen.

Even if there was, it was just that Gu Chusheng saved her on the battlefield at the age of twelve.

After that, during the holidays, Gu Chusheng came to visit the Chu family and gave Chu Jin a gift and one for her.

Then he played with Chu Jin, and she came to keep him company.

The last encounter was just after he fell into despair, she unilaterally gave him something, wrote him a love letter, and asked him to elope.

He returned everything she gave her at a penny.

And her letter asking him to elope was also sent back by him.

At the age of seventeen, Gu Chusheng was just a person who didn't like her.

No amount of resentment should be retaliated against someone who has done nothing.

To vent your anger to take revenge on an innocent person, even if your anger is because of that person in the future, this is also a kind of evil.

A person can not do good, but cannot do evil.

Chu Yu slowly calmed down.

She glanced at Gu Chusheng who was following closely behind, slowed down her horse, and said calmly to the people behind her: "Slow down, don't be in a hurry."

After hearing Chu Yu's order, everyone slowed down.

Chu Yu called and threw a bottle of medicine to Gu Chusheng, and said calmly: "Take some first to replenish your strength.

We will soon arrive at the inn, and I will ask you to see a doctor."

Hearing her words, Gu Chusheng frowned and said gently: "Yes."

Chu Yu stopped looking at him and walked to the front.

Gu Chusheng held the bottle, opened the cap, carefully ate one, and then placed it preciously on his chest.

The group of people walked for about half an hour before they found an inn outside.

Gu Chusheng was injured and could easily attract people's attention, so Chu Yu had someone put a robe on him, and then asked Wei Qiu to support him, pretending to be a sickly young man traveling with his sister, and checked into the inn. .

Gu Chusheng coughed and went to the guest room.

Others in the hotel were still chatting.

"Yao Yong is hunting down that Gu Chusheng in the entire state.

The reward is 20,000 taels of gold.

If I can get it, I won't have to worry about it for the rest of my life."

Chu Yu glanced at the two people and said nothing.

Gu Chusheng put on a disguise and looked frank, and he passed by the two people without even recognizing them.

Gu Chusheng entered the inn and fell down as soon as he entered.

Wei Qiu quickly called the doctor.

After the doctor came in and diagnosed Gu Chusheng's pulse, he quickly prescribed a lot of prescriptions.

Some of the medicines were very expensive and could never be obtained in this remote and remote area.

Fortunately, Chu Yu had made adequate preparations when he came, so all of these commonly used precious medicines were available.

A group of people worked all night, and Gu Chusheng finally calmed down.

The doctor wiped away the cold sweat and said with emotion: "This man is really cruel.

Ordinary people with injuries like his would have collapsed long ago."

Chu Yu said nothing.

Looking at Gu Chusheng's frowning face in his sleep, she couldn't help but feel a little respect in her heart.

"Okay."

She looked at the sky outside and said to the person next to her: "Wei Qiu will make arrangements to rest when he needs to.

We have to travel tomorrow, so don't waste it."

"yes."

Wei Qiu received the order, and Chu Yu took Mingyue and Changyue out.

Before going out, she heard Gu Chusheng murmur hoarsely: "Ayu" Chu Yu was stunned for a moment, then she took out her ears.

She thought she might be hallucinating.

Next to her, Chang Yue was a little confused about her actions and asked strangely: "Madam, what are you doing?"

"Hurry up and give me a sugar pill," Chu Yu quickly stretched out his hand and said with a look of horror on his face, "I have to calm myself down." gd1806102:
