Chapter 169: Traitor, die!
Chapter 169: Traitor, die!
Gu Yan was in despair. There was such a strong resentment. These seven people had no talismans to protect themselves, so they were corroded.
He looked up to see the so-called resentment, but he couldn't see it, but he knew that the resentment was right above his head.
His eyes were blurry, and the words that Old Madam Gu had repeatedly advised him to stay away from Wuwang came to his mind.
Now think about it, Hui Niang, you are right!
It was him who was wrong, as well as all the ancestors of the Gu family.
Looking at the empty palace, a feeling of desolation came over me, and the prosperous scenes of the past appeared in my mind again.
Comparing the two, the contrast is obvious. He still prefers the previous imperial palace where palace maids and eunuchs came and went.
There is no turning back.
The road ahead was filled with blood and wronged souls, and he didn't want to go on any further.
Where should he go now?
Where will the Gu family go?
After thinking about it, it seems that there is no way out.
"Hui Niang, Ah Yan misses you, where are you?"
Mu Ma walked straight out of the palace with staggering steps.
In an attic of the imperial palace, Wuwang watched him walk out of the palace coldly, his eyes full of bloodthirsty cruelty.
Traitor, die!
Only one gate of the capital city was open, and everyone entering or leaving the city had to undergo strict inspection.
Lu Yu, Lin Ruquan and Gu Hong waited until late at night before climbing into the city using hooks.
In the corner, three people were whispering.
"Do you want to follow us or act alone?" Lu Yu asked Gu Hong.
Gu Hong responded in a low voice, "I need to go back to the Gu family."
Lu Yu understood that it meant to act alone. "Whether what you are going to do is successful or not, we will meet in the forest outside the city in three days."
"If you don't come after the time is up, I won't wait for you. Similarly, if we don't come, you don't have to wait. Go back first."
Gu Hong nodded, "Then you guys be careful."
After saying that, he walked away with his back hunched.
After Lu Yu and Lin Ruquan looked at each other, they used their lightness skills to head towards the palace.
The guards at the city gates were not strict, but it was different at the imperial palace. Look at the guards patrolling back and forth and the three layers of guards guarding the palace gates.
Probably not even a fly can fly in.
Lu Yu made a gesture and took Lin Ruquan away from the vicinity of the palace.
After walking away, Lu Yu suggested, "The guards are too strict and it's hard to get in. You just wait here for a while, and I'll go in alone."
"No!" Lin Ruquan became excited when he heard this, and his voice became louder.
Lu Yu frowned and looked at him, and finally... he patted him when he wasn't paying attention, and then he entered the space.
Lin Ruquan saw the familiar environment, his brows were knitted so tightly that they could pinch a fly to death. He looked around and saw Xie Huanzhu. He went up to her and bowed, saying:
"Miss Huanzhu, our young lady is planning to break into the palace alone. Do you have any way to stop her?"
Xie Huanzhu took out a tomato from the basket she was carrying and handed it to him. "Why are you in such a hurry? My sister is very strong. She will be fine. Come, have a fruit first."
Lin Ruquan looked at her with dissatisfaction. The young lady was so nice to her, but she was not worried at all.
"Miss Huanzhu, you should know that Wuwang has become a demon. If he touches you, the consequences will be..."
"The consequence is to get beaten up." Xie Huanzhu interrupted him, picked up a tomato, rubbed it on her body, and took a bite.
"Mmm, delicious!"
His eyes narrowed as he ate the delicious food, and he took one bite after another, with juice all around his little mouth.
When Lin Ruquan heard her words, he was shocked. Is the young lady's current strength enough to fight against Wuwang?
"Miss Huanzhu, what did you mean by that?"
Xie Huanzhu raised her arm to wipe her mouth and glanced at Lin Ruquan.
He said slowly: "Don't worry, all the resentment in the palace will become the source of my sister's power, and Wuwang will not be able to get any advantage."
"Just stay here and don't think about going out and causing trouble."
Lin Ruquan knew the purpose of Lu Yu coming to the palace, but he hadn’t absorbed it yet, hadn’t he?
Even if it can become power, it has to be absorbed. If Wuwang finds out while absorbing it, wouldn't it be very dangerous?
I wanted to ask something else, but when I saw her carrying the basket into the orchard again, I gave up.
I can only pray that what Miss Huanzhu said is true.
Outside the space, Lu Yu put on climbing spikes and held two flat drill bits in his left and right hands.
She aimed at a corner of the city wall, waited for the patrolman to leave, then leaped onto the wall and inserted two drill bits into the gap.
Then he moved up step by step. In the night, the black clothes could not be seen at all unless you got close.
When the patrolmen came, Lu Yu stopped climbing, not because he was afraid of being seen by them, but because he was afraid that sand and rocks would fall and arouse their suspicion.
In this way, stopping and resting, Lu Yu climbed up the 16-meter-high city wall.
There were also people guarding the city wall, and there were quite a few of them. The moment Lu Yu jumped up, he entered the space.
In just a moment, he was still seen by someone. Several guards ran to the place where Lu Yu disappeared, all of them looked confused.
"It seemed like there was someone here just now."
"I don't know if it's a human or not. I only saw a dark shadow."
"That's probably a mistake. Be careful and don't let anyone with bad intentions break in."
When Lin Ruquan saw Lu Yu, he finally felt relieved.
"Miss!"
Lu Yu nodded and stopped talking. She focused her attention on the scene outside.
There was someone standing guard at the place where she had just come in.
It's impossible to go out without alerting others.
Xie Huanzhu saw Lu Yu on the Fruit Tree Hill and trotted down, "Sister, have you entered the palace?"
Lu Yu turned around and sat on the grass, waved to her, took an apple from her basket and started eating it.
"Well, we've reached the city wall, but the guards are too strict. Let's hide in the space."
Xie Huanzhu tilted her head, "Will we be discovered if we go out?"
"Yes, there are people standing guard at the entrance."
Xie Huanzhu rolled her eyes and immediately had an idea, "Sister, give me a drop of blood."
Lu Yu was puzzled, but still reached out his hand, "Get it yourself."
Xie Huanzhu was not polite either. She rummaged in her small cloth bag and took out a needle and a yellow paper talisman.
She used one hand to insert a needle to draw blood, and the other hand to hold a yellow paper talisman to collect the blood.
With a gentle prick, a drop of blood fell on the yellow paper talisman. Xie Huanzhu threw away the needle, held the yellow paper talisman in her small palm, and wrote something quickly on it with the index finger of her other hand.
Soon, Lu Yu saw the yellow paper talisman emit a light, but it disappeared in an instant.
"This is an invisibility charm. Sister will use it later so that no one can see her."
Lu Yu's eyes were full of joy. What a good thing! She stretched out her hand and squeezed the small needle hole that had just been pierced.
"Hurry, get some more blood and draw a few more pictures."
Seeing that the blood drop was about to fall, Xie Huanzhu hurriedly took out a yellow paper talisman to catch it.
Lin Ruquan, who was standing aside, looked at Xie Huanzhu, thinking about asking her to draw a few pictures, so that he could accompany the young lady into the palace.
