Back Off, Let Me Come

Chapter 677 677: I killed someone in my dream [Start Up]

"It's just Gu Chi."

Tao Yan said: "Gu Chi is nothing, but he is working for Shen Youli now, so he seems to be a confidant."

The woman understood: "It's Shen Youli you're afraid of?"

She has never met Shen Tang, but she has heard of him more than once.

Qiu Cheng went around asking for help from the Dragon Slaying Bureau's coalition forces to defeat Shen Tang. Tao Yan was also tempted, but his territory was not adjacent to Shen Tang. He sent troops to support him, and he would not get much benefit from a victory. He didn't take the initiative, but Qian Yong did, and ended up kicking the iron plate. He was even more glad that he didn't get involved rashly.

He admitted frankly: "How can I not be afraid? This Shen Youli refused Qian Yong before, but later destroyed Qiu Cheng. This alliance will bring 30,000 elite soldiers, and Gu Chi has a grudge against his husband. I don't know when he will use Shen Youli to They are attacking us... In this situation, we can only act first. However, it is not easy to move Gu Chi openly. If we can't do it openly, we can only do it secretly. "

Get rid of Gu Chi, and Shen Tang won't be a threat.

The woman disagreed.

"Just a man..."

She didn't find it difficult to get Gu Chi to let down his guard.

Most men in the world are the same, they are confident and arrogant at heart. The sense of accomplishment in possessing a woman's body is far less intense than occupying a woman's entire heart. The former can only prove that you are strong, while the latter proves that you are strong and charming at the same time.

If not, how can one make a woman fall in love with him in three ways?

And the infatuated and affectionate sister she talks about is just a tragic story deliberately exaggerated to distract Gu Chi's attention, nine points true and one part false. As long as Gu Chi still cares about blood relatives, the attraction of that jade pendant to him will be fatal.

Tao Yan said: "He is a man and a literary scholar."

Gu Chi's talent is the strongest among the three generations of the Gu family.

To deal with Grandpa Gu Chi, all he had to do was play the emotional card of his homeland with him, which reminded this old minister of his past battles with the founder of the royal family. To deal with Gu Chi's father, the young master Gu, all he had to do was use his feelings for his relatives, use his father's token as evidence, and say that he had the hostage in hand, so he obediently came to save his father.

But Gu Chi was different. When facing Tao Yan and the people around Tao Yan, he would be extremely alert. It would be difficult for the latter to get close to him, let alone let him relax for a short time. Although Tao Yan acquiesced to his confidants to eliminate the root cause, he was still worried about this matter in his heart.

The woman sneered contemptuously in her heart.

She curled up the man's collar with her fingers.

He said ambiguously: "Isn't Master Lang also a brave warrior?"

Tao Yan was aroused by her small gesture, and his eyes were filled with deep emotion. The two looked at each other for a moment, and he laughed loudly and carried the woman behind the screen of the main tent: "That's right. My husband has been defeated by the madam. What does he mean by a literary scholar?"

"If news comes tomorrow that Gu Chi died suddenly..."

Tao Yan said vaguely: "Tonight is just a test. For the safety of my wife, no matter how urgent it is, I have to wait three to five days before taking his life."

If we start tonight, Shen Tang will definitely become suspicious.

It would be troublesome if he followed the woman and traced it to himself.

Judging from Shen Tang's past style, it was not a good one.

Tao Yan looked at the woman's slightly rough skin from running around in the military camp. Although her appearance was not beautiful, she had a wild look: "The accounts in the warehouse have been very complicated recently. Madam, if you are free tonight, you might as well go through them with your husband." inventory?"

The woman agreed vaguely.

Checking accounts is a profound skill.

Two people cooperate, one is the master and the other is the assistant.

Hardness and softness are combined, yin and yang are combined.

Although Tao Yan is a brave warrior, he is not a rough martial artist who does not understand the style. He calculates accounts carefully and makes every entry and exit carefully and clearly. The woman couldn't stand his methods and started to feel dizzy halfway through checking the accounts.

However, today's work is finished today.

Tao Yan didn't stop until the accounts were clear.

Checking accounts is even more laborious.

The two of them came to an end for the time being. After a while, they regained their energy and wanted to check the second book. Tao Yan suddenly heard rapid footsteps coming from the direction outside the tent. He could only suppress his thoughts, tidy up a little, put on his clothes, and walked out of the screen: "What's the matter?"

"Lord, I have something important to report."

The person outside the tent was one of Tao Yan's confidants.

He was also the one who persuaded Tao Yan to kill Gu Chi.

Tao Yan was confused: "Come in."

What could be urgent at this hour?

There was no way Zheng Qiao's troops would sneak up on the camp in the middle of the night.

The confidant entered the tent, and by the candlelight in the tent, Tao Yan could clearly see the anxiety on his face. Just as he was about to ask, his confidant threw a shocking surprise. The confidant said with a pale face: "My lord, Old Military Advisor Li just... just now... died."

Tao Yan crushed the pottery bowl in his hand, and the water in the pottery bowl spilled all over the floor. The woman was so shocked that she came out from behind the screen, not caring that she was only wearing a thin pair of pajamas. Her eyes were filled with shock, fear and anger, and she asked sharply: "Who did you just say died?"

The woman's voice made Tao Yan regain some composure.

His low voice revealed faint panic.

"Tell me carefully, what's going on!"

Why did Tao Yan and the woman react this way?

Because Old Military Advisor Li was the person sent by Tao Yan to assassinate Gu Chi, and he was also the only scribe under Tao Yan's command who had the skills of a scribe. In terms of age, he was of the same generation as Gu Chi's father, but due to his background, he was never reused and became a staff member in Tao Yan's house. After the country was destroyed and his family was destroyed, he helped Tao Yan with many plans, and he was also a staunch nationalist by his side!

Without this person, Gu Chi's grandfather and father would not have been killed so easily. Tao Yan and the woman were well aware of his abilities and did not understand why he died suddenly. In the blink of an eye, the woman thought that the cause of Old Military Advisor Li's death might be related to Gu Chi...

Asked: "Did Gu Chi kill him?"

The confidant's answer was beyond their expectations: "No."

The two asked in unison: "No? Who is that?"

"As a person like Gu Chi, it is impossible for him to let that jade pendant leave his body. How could Old Military Advisor Li be killed instead of succeeding in the assassination?"

The meaning of this jade pendant is too heavy.

From Gu Chi's grandfather, to Gu Chi's father, to Gu Chi's mother, and to the miserable woman who had no connection with Gu Chi but fell in love with him, it was impossible for Gu Chi to abandon this jade pendant due to emotion or reason. Even if you don't keep it close to you, you will keep it close by.

The confidant took a deep breath and said, "I don't know."

He heard a scream from Old Military Advisor Li's camp and rushed in immediately. He only saw the opponent's head rolling on the ground, his eyes opened to the limit, but his body disappeared. There were no suspicious persons inside or outside the camp, and there were no signs of fighting.

This scene is too weird.

but--

All three of them knew exactly why.

Old Military Advisor Li's way of being a scholar is somewhat special. Its official name is "Huang Liang Yi Meng". To put it more simply, it means making people dream. The literary scholars/martial arts warriors who are dragged into [Huang Liang Yi Meng] will dream about the time when they just gathered their literary minds and martial courage, and the literary scholars who use the way of the scholar can enter dreams and transform into any character around the dreamer. , waiting for an opportunity to kill.

This scribe's way may be said to be useless, but it may be said to be powerful, but it is really powerful. Old Military Advisor Li used it to help Tao Yan clear numerous obstacles, including Gu Chi's grandfather and father. After all, they never imagined that their son/father would kill them.

Even in dreams.

Of course, if Senior Military Advisor Li was caught in a dream and killed him, he would also die. He is as cautious as he is. Unless it is an emergency, he will test it several times before actually taking action, secretly learning the interaction between the dreamer and the people around him.

Make sure you can fool him for a while before you start.

He was going to test Gu Chi tonight.

Tao Yan's face was colder than ever: "Go and have a look."

How can one's mentality not explode when one of his right and left arms is lost inexplicably? The blood-stained head of Old Military Advisor Li had been cleaned up and placed neatly on the table. When the woman and Tao Yan came in, they met those eyes that were staring at them with determination, and their hearts skipped a beat.

Tao Yan asked: "Why are you sure it's not Gu Chi?"

The confidant pointed at the neat incision on Old Military Advisor Li's neck. Tao Yan looked closely and saw the clue: "Because what remains on the wound is not literary energy... but martial energy. Old Military Advisor Li should have been killed by a brave warrior in his dream with his sword. Down."

There is a big difference between literary spirit and martial spirit.

Tao Yan and his confidants turned their heads and looked at the woman.

Dragging people into dreams requires a medium, and this medium must be something that the target can carry close to his body, and it must be undefended. Although the conditions were harsh, the jade pendant just met them. Tao Yan looked at the head of old military advisor Li, his heart dripping with blood: "Shouldn't that thing be in Gu Chi's hands? Why would it be in the hands of a brave warrior? When did he, Gu Chi, practice martial arts?"

The woman did not expect this development.

She murmured: "Could he have discovered it?"

No, not possible.

Although she is an ordinary person, she is very thoughtful and knows the tricks some literati can use to peek into people's minds. She has deliberately trained herself not to overthink things in the past few years. Although it was difficult to restrain her instinct, she did it and integrated it into her bones and turned it into instinct. The woman's mind was running rapidly, recalling all the details of her meeting with Gu Chi, and reviewing them carefully.

The woman was certain: "He can't find out!"

Tao Yan suppressed his anger: "If he didn't find the flaw, why did that thing get into the hands of a brave warrior? Didn't you say that the jade pendant is of great significance to Gu Chi? How could he easily give it to someone else? Or give it to a man?"

As we all know, there are no women among the brave warriors.

Of course, when Gu Chi gave out the jade pendant, he also gave it to a man.

The woman's lips moved and she held back a sentence: "...or maybe this Gu Chi really has a habit of cutting off his sleeves and is good at Long Yang?"

Otherwise the explanation makes no sense.

Tao Yan's face turned purple.

The woman said: "Only accident can explain it."

After hearing this, Tao Yan's face became gloomy, the veins on his forehead jumped uncontrollably, and his head was buzzing. He raised his hand and pointed at the head of Mr. Li, and said with an angry smile: "Accident? You mean my right-hand man, he was killed by an accident?"

This is really a case of dying before leaving the battlefield.

It's so ridiculous!

The woman stood where she was, not afraid of the fierceness in the man's eyes.

In this tense and suffocating atmosphere, Tao Yan took a few deep breaths and vented all his emotions into his clenched fists, as if using the power of clenched fists to hold back the boiling anger and murderous intent in his chest: "Send someone Go check out Shen Tang’s camp!”

He wants to know who killed Mr. Li!

This debt will be recovered twice as much!

Two flowers bloom, one on each side.

A group of people gathered in Bai Su's tent, occupying the already small space with not much room to walk. The owner of the tent was standing in the corner, his pajamas under his cloak were splattered with blood, and the tent was filled with disgusting things. The smell of blood. Shen Tang squatted facelessly next to a headless corpse, and said solemnly: "The corpse is still warm and fresh, it was just dead."

This is nonsense.

"Looking at the way this man is dressed, he is a scribe... Are there any missing persons in our camp?" Shen Tang poked half of the corpse's neck. The skin under his fingers had little elasticity and serious loss of collagen. It was estimated that the owner of the headless corpse was not young. .

As soon as these words came out, Bai Su's face turned as white as her last name.

Without him, the fatal injuries on the headless body were clearly caused by her hand, and the remaining martial energy could also prove this. This was ironclad evidence that she could not deny. But she remembered clearly that she killed someone in her dream, but that was a dream, not reality.

This can only prove one point——

Which pot does Xu Quan not open and lift?

"...Did Shaoxuan kill someone in his dream?"

Is this sleeping posture a bit too fierce?

Bai Su swung him with a glare, and Xu Quan winced at the glare. He carefully moved behind the friend next to him - Bai Su was killing someone in his dream, so violently that he was somewhat timid.

Bai Su fought with heaven and man and went out to plead guilty.

"Lord, the matter has come to this, I will be punished!"

If he kills someone in his dream, he is still killing someone, or if he kills an innocent scribe suspected of being in his own camp for no apparent reason, Bai Su is willing to bear all the consequences! Shen Tang was not in a hurry at all: "Shaoxuan, don't remember to put the blame on yourself first, first make sure it is ours or someone else's. If it is someone else's, what is the purpose of breaking into Shaoxuan's camp in the middle of the night to spy on us? Let's just Bringing the body to the door and asking for mental damages, a rip-off..."

As she said that, she thought of Jiang Sheng again.

"What can you expect if you climb first?"

Jiang Sheng told a hellish joke seriously: "This person's head is gone. He is headless and has no breath. How can he find his breath?"

This is simply a scribe's way of making things difficult for him.

Shen Tang exclaimed: "That's true."

It was not difficult to check whether he was one of our own, but before the results came out, Gu Chi said firmly: "It can't be one of ours."

Shen Tang asked: "Reason?"

Gu Chi bent down and lifted up the corpse's wide-sleeved robe, and asked: "Who can afford to wear this kind of heavy brocade pattern that is sure to win all over the world?"

Everyone: "..."

Shen Tang was shot hard in the knee.

After a while, Xun Ding came quickly.

"Lord, there is never a shortage of people in the camp."

Shen Tang looked at the corpse and fell into deep thought. Everyone looked at the corpse and fell into conspiracy theories - which force came to spy?

Jiang Sheng speculated: "Their target should be the Lord. Didn't they ever think that they would go to the wrong camp and be killed by General Bai in his dream?"

Bai Su had no memory of the murder, so everyone characterized the incident as a murder in a dream. Judging from this, General Bai is still fierce!

Shen Tang made a fist with one hand and lightly smashed the palm of the other hand, and suggested enthusiastically: "The first priority is to find out which family he belongs to... carrying the body to the door to ask for an explanation, and doing this on the first day, who knows if there will be trouble Stab us in the front and back."

However, there was nothing on this person to identify him.

As for the literary monogram?

That thing is transformed by the master's literary spirit. If the master burps, the literary spirit will dissipate, and the literary monogram will naturally cease to exist. However, wealthy families who pay attention to funeral culture will find craftsmen to carve an identical monogram for burial.

This is not easy to find.

Everyone picked out the suspects one by one.

Among them were Wu Xian and Gu Ren, and even the alliance leader Huang Lie was dragged into conspiracy theories. However, Gu Chi brought up Tao Yan who no one cared about. Shen Tang said: "He has a grudge against you and not me, so why did he visit my camp at night..."

Gu Chi corrected his lord: "It's General Bai's camp."

Shen Tang said: "Isn't that the wrong direction?"

I walked into the wrong tent and got kicked out.

What a confused literary scholar.

Gu Chi was speechless.

His intuition told him that Tao Yan was highly suspicious!

After some speculation, almost everyone has serious suspicions.

Chu Yao suggested: "We might as well hang the body and wait for someone to claim it. Tomorrow, whoever's house has something strange will be the one to blame."

Shen Tang hesitated: "This is an open declaration of war."

Chu Yao said: "So what?"

When things get serious, it’s hard to say who is responsible.

Shen Tang finally nodded to the suggestion and had the body carried out and washed in Bai Su's tent. She suffered a terrible disaster tonight and was frightened for herself. It's just that - killing people in this dream is not a good habit...

"Shaoxuan, are you under too much pressure recently?"

Shen Tang had reason to suspect that Bai Su had been under too much stress recently and had sleepwalking. Although he was unconscious during sleepwalking, the instinct of a brave warrior was engraved in his body. If there were enemies prying at him, Bai Su would kill in defense out of instinct. This explanation is very normal. .

Jiang Sheng looked at Bai Su's face carefully: "My lord, I suspect that General Bai was too stressed during the day, which led to the attack of soul-leaving syndrome?"

Not sure, he looked again.
