Chapter Ninety-Six When Gu Chen arrived at the Lieutenant's Mansion with the ruffian leader, Gu Chong was still there, and it could be said that he didn't leave at all, and was sitting in the lobby sighing and sighing.
Gu Chen glanced at his uncle, didn't say anything, and gave an order to gather the subordinate soldiers of the lieutenant's mansion and follow him to arrest the suspect.
Gu Chong was stunned when he heard this, where did the suspect come from, he stood up and asked, "Gu Chen, what suspect?"
Gu Chen frowned and said, "Uncle, my nephew just received the news that there is a group of Ning people who are likely to be related to the assassins who assassinated the king, I will go and capture these people now."
Gu Chong inhaled and immediately asked, "Can you confirm it?"
Gu Chen shook his head and said, "Whether it is or not, you will know when you catch it."
Hearing this, Gu Chong was a little deflated again.
In his eyes, Gu Chen is a loser of the family, mixing with some rough people who are indiscriminate and can't get on the stage all day long, of course, it is precisely because of this that he forced Gu Chen into the lieutenant's mansion and made him a corps commander.
People who are against the wind can't even find out the hidden arrows, and what can their useless nephew find out Gu Chong shook his head again and again, and muttered: "This time, I was miserable by you for three days, and my two heads can't be saved."
The more Gu Chen listened to his uncle's frustrated words, the more angry he became, so he simply walked out of the lobby and waited outside for the army to assemble.
Before the army arrived, it was Yan Xi who came first.
Yan Xi lived in the inn opposite the Lieutenant's Mansion, and when she saw that the Lieutenant's Mansion, which was still calm just now, suddenly became lively, and a large number of troops gathered outside the mansion one after another, she didn't know what was going on, so she came over to take a look.
When the guard at the door came in to report to Gu Chen, the latter didn't think about it, waved his hand and said, "I don't see anyone now."
"She said she was sent by the king" En Gu Chen was stunned, subconsciously frowned, and then walked out.
He hadn't heard of Yan Xi's name, but he had met Yan Xi, and remembered that she was by the king's side when the king was assassinated, but he didn't know what Yan Xi's exact identity was.
After seeing Yan Xi at the gate of the mansion, Gu Chen stepped forward, politely bowed his hand, and asked, "Miss Yan was sent by the king."
Yan Xi had a very good impression of Gu Chen, and felt that this young man was both energetic and courageous.
She smiled and said, "I'm here to help you track down the Assassins.
The reason why she added to the guards just now was that the king sent her, mainly because she was afraid that people would not see her.
Gu Chen smiled reluctantly and said, "Please Miss Yan go back and tell the king that the last general has clues and does not need the help of others." ” There was a clue so soon Yan Xi was surprised in his heart, and he was even more impressed with Gu Chen.
She asked, "General Gu gathered his army just to capture the assassins."
"That's right" "The assassins are powerful, they are all masters of spiritual martial arts, I think General Gu should notify General Cheng first, please send out the secret arrow to help capture the assassin."
Yan Xi kindly reminded him.
Gu Chen's face was slightly gloomy, and he sneered: "Please Dark Arrow, if there is no Dark Arrow, my Lieutenant's Mansion will not be able to handle the case" From the bottom of his heart, Gu Chen looked down on the Dark Arrow, and felt that it was just a group of people who thought they were great because they were close to the king.
Listening to his words, Yan Xi disagreed, through the exchange with Cheng Jin in the afternoon, she saw that Cheng Jin was very capable and quick-witted, and as the head of the dark arrow, he was by no means mediocre.
She said, "Please ask the Dark Arrow to help, at least you will be more sure when you capture the Assassins" Before she finished speaking, Gu Chen was already impatiently planning: "Without the Hidden Arrow, I am sure that I will capture all the assassins" After a pause, he said again: "If Miss Yan is here to speak for the Dark Arrow, then there is no need.
After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the house.
Yan Xi sighed secretly, this person's temper is really stubborn.
She chased after her and said, "You are going to capture the Assassins, and I will go with you." ” "You" Gu Chen glanced back at her and said, "The girl is the person next to the king, in case there is a loss, I can't afford it." ” Knowing that he had misunderstood, Yan Xi didn't explain, only smiled slightly, and said, "General Gu, don't look down on people, maybe at a critical moment, I can still help you."
As long as you don't delay the business and get in the way for yourself, Gu Chen muttered in his heart, but he didn't dare to say this.
He didn't agree, he didn't object, he acquiesced.
Soon, the army was assembled, and all 10,000 soldiers from the Lieutenant's Mansion arrived.
Gu Chen didn't delay any longer, let the ruffian leader lead the way, and he led the army straight to the house in the east of the city.
Gu Chong didn't worry about letting his nephew go to mess around alone, so he also followed.
Gu Chen was arrogant and arrogant, his ability was not bad at all, and when he was about to reach the mansion that the ruffian leader said, he ordered the soldiers below to extinguish all the torches, and no one was allowed to make a sound, and the soldiers were divided into two roads, and they moved closer to the house from both ends of the street.
Under his command, the soldiers moved quickly, and in a short time, they quietly surrounded the house.
Gu Chen rode on a horse, raised his eyes and looked, and saw that his soldiers had surrounded the house with three layers inside and three layers outside, and the water could not be leaked, so he ordered people to light the torches, and then, he separated the soldiers in front of him, urged the horse to go out, and shouted loudly at the house: "Listen to the people inside, this place has been surrounded, you hurry up and surrender, dare to resist, and there is no mercy."
When he finished shouting, there was no sound in the house, and there was no movement at all.
Gu Chen frowned secretly and looked at the ruffian leader standing next to his horse.
The latter hurriedly said: "Young Master Gu, those Ning people live here, it's true, and if they go out, my brothers will definitely come to inform me, and they must be inside now."
"I believe you for the time being" Gu Chen turned his head and shouted: "Send someone in to see what is going on inside" As soon as he gave the order, a small group of soldiers jumped over the courtyard wall and into the courtyard.
Gu Chong, who came with him, shook his head again and again, and said: "Nonsense is just nonsense, just by this ruffian, you are sure that the assassin is in this mansion, if there is no one in it, and if there are ordinary people living in it, our lieutenant's mansion will lose its face."
Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Gu Chen couldn't help it anymore and interrupted: "Uncle, there are so many of us, such a big formation, and I shouted so loudly, even the dead have to be awakened, but you see that there is no movement in this house at all."
In addition, there are no weeds on the courtyard wall and no cobwebs on the porch, so this must be a house where someone lives, isn't it abnormal?"
Gu Chong blinked, looked closely, and was really like what Gu Chen said, thinking about it carefully, he also felt that something was wrong.

Yan Xi on the other side showed appreciation, and secretly said that this Gu Chen is not simple A small group of soldiers, ten people, climbed over the wall and entered the house, like a stone sinking into the sea, not to mention that no one came out, but there was no sound at all, as if they were swallowed up by this dark and lifeless house.
As time passed, people couldn't help but get nervous, looked at each other, and couldn't help but shiver.
Now that Gu Chen is 100% sure that there is something wrong with this house, he doesn't wait any longer, and shouts sideways: "Knock open the courtyard door for me, if you encounter resistance, you can capture it, otherwise there will be no mercy, as long as you don't let the enemy run away."
"It's a general" The soldiers of the Lieutenant's Mansion responded in unison, and people brought thick wooden stakes, and more than a dozen people held them, using all their strength, and slammed into the courtyard gate.
How can an ordinary courtyard door withstand such an impact, only three hits, the door fork is broken, the door is broken, a large number of soldiers swarm in, and at the same time, there are countless soldiers jumping over the wall.
In an instant, the peaceful mansion turned into chaos, and immediately after, the sound of fighting continued to be heard.
Sure enough, someone lurked in it.
Gu Chen waved his hand and sent all the few spiritual cultivators in the Lieutenant's Mansion in.
As more and more soldiers entered, the sound of fighting inside became more and more intense.
Gu Chen sat on the horse, didn't move, squinted at the courtyard gate, Gu Chong looked a little nervous, leaned the horse towards Gu Chen's side, and asked, "Chen'er, is the assassin really hiding in this mansion?"
"It's not certain, but nine times out of ten."
Gu Chen smiled confidently.
"If it's really an assassin, then our uncle and nephew's face will be bigger this time" Gu Chong said tremblingly while wiping cold sweat, listening to his tone, I don't know if he is happy or afraid.
Gu Chen secretly glanced at his uncle, sometimes he had to doubt the king's vision, how could he let such a timid and fearful person as his uncle sit in such an important position as a lieutenant Yan Xi looked at this uncle and nephew from the side and felt very interesting, the seniority Gu Chong was big, and the rank Gu Chong was high, but the actions of the Lieutenant's Mansion were all at Gu Chen's behalf, and it really responded to the sentence that one generation is stronger than the other.
"Uncle, don't worry, there is a nephew, and none of the thieves can escape" Gu Chen was comforting Gu Chong, when suddenly several screams came from the porch, and then, a black shadow rushed out of it.
This person was covered with white spirit armor, but it had been dyed red at this time, and after coming out, he went straight to Gu Chong Gu Chen's side.
The other party obviously also understands the truth of capturing the thief and capturing the king first, surrounded by so many officers and soldiers, no matter how strong the spirit martial is, it may not be able to kill, if you want to get out, only the leader who holds the other party hostage may still have hope.
Seeing a bloodied cultivator suddenly running towards him, Gu Chong's frightened soul flew away, screamed, instinctively leaned back, he still held the reins of the horse in his hand, and pulled it back, the war horse was eaten, and the two front hooves were also raised high, and the whole horse was about to stand up.
Gu Chong couldn't sit still on the horse, and fell backwards.
Seeing this, the surrounding soldiers hurriedly rushed up and helped him up, while at the same time, another part of the soldiers went to stop the cultivator who had been killed.
Before the soldiers could get closer, the man had already swung out a spiritual wave, and several soldiers couldn't dodge, and were cut by the spiritual wave, and people screamed and fell to the ground.
The man held the spirit sword and rushed into the army, as if he had entered a no-man's land, and the soldiers in front of him fell to the ground in rows, and the stumps and severed arms flew up from the heads of the crowd from time to time, and the screams were continuous.
Yan Xi, a powerful spiritual cultivator, secretly screamed in his heart, and was just about to draw his sword to face the battle, but the figure of one person rushed to the other party first
