Chapter 128 Showdown (one more)

help him? Xia Houqing's eyes narrowed into fox eyes, with a dangerous cold glow, as if he had heard a funny joke.

"We Taoist doctors don't only know a few tricks, I know all about talismans, divinations, sign... faces," Gu Yanfei boasted with a smile, and leaned slightly closer to Xia Houqing on the other side of the stone table.

She put one hand on the stone table and hid the other under the stone table, and talked eloquently: "Judging from your face, you are from a noble family, but your fate is tragic. Not only is your family ruined, you are orphaned at a young age, and you have suffered many disasters."

She wasn't just looking at each other's faces, the hand hidden under the table was quickly counting...

The more she looked, the more frightened she became, and the more she calculated, the more frightened she became, but she still did not hesitate to tell the result of the calculation, and opened the other's scars with a casual attitude and merciless.

These words made a clear crack appear in Xiahouqing's frozen eyes.

Gu Yanfei kept on talking: "At the age of fourteen, you escaped from the wolf's den and entered the tiger's mouth, pushing you into the eighteenth layer of hell."

"Your most cherished relative died that day, your faith was crushed, and that day you were reborn from the ashes..."

The smile on Xia Houqing's face split.

There was a kind of extreme madness in his eyes and smile, and even the scarlet luck on his body stretched out his claws like a demon.

Suddenly, he raised his right hand, and his slender jade fingers struck Gu Yanfei's neck like lightning. The whole person was beautiful and coquettish, like the deadly red poppy/poppy.

Gu Yanfei, who was sitting leisurely, abruptly stood up and stepped back, the pavilion behind her hindered her pace, and the opponent's hand mercilessly pinched her tender neck.

That hand seemed to have never suffered any hardships, slender and beautiful, fair and noble, clean and delicate.

The corner of Gu Yanfei's lips curled into a smile, and the dark jade-colored pupils flashed a ray of stars. The short sword hidden in the cloak was unsheathed at the same time as she retreated. With a flash of silver, the blade drew a crescent-like arc. , wiped his cuff, firmly across his neck.

A big red sleeve cloth the size of a palm fell off Xia Houqing's left sleeve and fluttered to the ground.

At first glance, it was like a pool of bright red blood on the ground, shocking.

"Girl!" Chuan Bi outside the pavilion also saw this scene, screamed and subconsciously wanted to step forward, but was once again stopped by the old man who described it as withered.

The eyes of the old man were as cold as frost. No one can come forward without the son's orders.

Time seemed to stand still in the pavilion, only the cold wind was still whistling.

The two of them remained in a confrontational position and did not move for a long time.

Xiahouqing didn't seem to care about the dagger on his neck, his right hand squeezed her neck a little more tightly, and looked directly at the girl who was less than a foot away from him.

The two were very close, so close that they could see the snowflakes on each other's hair and eyelashes, so close that they could see the slightest changes in expressions on each other's faces.

Even though he was strangled, Gu Yanfei didn't have any panic or fear, and even a casual smile appeared on his face, looking directly into his eyes.

His pupils are pitch black, ink-like color, without any impurities, like an abyss that wants to engulf everything, without showing the slightest emotion.

"Cough, cough." Gu Yanfei coughed twice because of the pressure in his throat, still laughing, high-spirited, with a big smile, "I can help you take over the country of Yue."

"How about this, is this transaction worth the life of this Zhuangzi person?"

When the last word fell, Gu Yanfei took the lead in putting down the dagger that was placed around Xia Houqing's neck to show her sincerity.

Her eyes stared deeply at Xia Houqing, her smile was determined for a moment.

The two looked at each other quietly.

seems to be engaged in a silent duel.

After a while, Gu Yanfei felt the pressure on her neck lighten, and the one that was holding her neck slowly loosened, and finally took it back.

The other party's deep and charming phoenix eyes looked at her solemnly, from madness to measure to calm, the dark eyes flashed with interest again under the illumination of the light, and his eyes turned on Gu Yanfei's face.

In the pavilion, the tense atmosphere was swept away.

Kuanbi finally breathed a sigh of relief, patted his chest, and those frightened eyes lit up again, thinking: Sure enough, everything is in my own girl's calculations! The girl said "don't worry", how could it be wrong!

Gu Yanfei stroked his neck, and reached out his hand again to plead: "Master Xiahou, do you want to sit down? Let's talk slowly."

Without waiting for Xia Houqing to answer, she sat down on the original stone board and placed her short sword on the stone table.

When he raised his hands and gestures, he was calm and calm, free and easy, as if the quarrel just now did not exist at all, and as if they were just joking.

However, the few red finger marks left on her fair neck were so dazzling.

Xia Houqing slowly turned around, the wide cuffs and hem of his clothes danced with his movements, and he wanted to fly, with a flamboyant and flamboyant temperament.

Xiahouqing also returned to the original stone bench and sat down, and the two sat opposite each other on both sides of the stone table.

Both of them were smiling, each with their own thoughts in their smiles.

Xia Houqing took out a plain white handkerchief from his sleeve again, and slowly wiped the right hand that was pinching Gu Yanfei's neck just now, without even dropping his fingers.

"You said you wanted to help me?" He asked directly, his Qingyue's voice was light and lazy, with a low sarcasm.

When his eyes swept across the left sleeve with a corner cut off, his eyes darkened, and even the corners of his raised lips froze for a moment, his brows twitched, and his disgust and irritability were evident.

It was the first time that Gu Yanfei saw so many expressions on his face.

She pretended not to see it, and asked seriously, "What is the situation in Yue Country now?"

The black and white eyes stared at Xia Houqing without blinking, with an expression of humbly asking for advice.

The pavilion was silent for a moment.

The atmosphere between the two of them changed a little in an instant, the temperature plummeted, and it became like an ice cellar.

A moment ago, Xia Houqing was still laughing lazily. At this moment, the smile was restrained, and the corners of his eyes and brows showed a bit of frost-like coldness.

"You don't know?" he asked almost word by word.

do not know. Gu Yanfei smiled, with no guilt at all, as if they were just talking about today's weather.

For the first time, the young man's bewitching and perfect face felt that he was about to lose his grip.

She doesn't know anything, so she dares to come and negotiate with herself!

Xia Houqing's phoenix eyes narrowed dangerously, his murderous intent resurfaced, and the scarlet aura around his body roared again like boiling water.

In the face of the other's pressing gaze, Gu Yanfei's smile did not change, and he still kept his relaxed look.

How could she possibly know!

In this life, she has been reborn for less than three months. In the last life, she only stayed in three places: Huaibei, Danyang City, and the capital, and she never left the capital until she died.

How could she possibly know about Yue Guo.

Even the name Xiahouqing was only known today.

Seeing that the fingers of Xia Houqing's right hand flexed eagerly, as if he wanted to strangle himself, Gu Yanfei thought for a while, and said sincerely, "How about I do the math?"

She touched and touched, and took out a palm-sized compass from her sleeve.

Xia Houqing's smile almost cracked again, and his eyes curved into an arc that could not be said to be evil or distorted.

The murderous intention is even stronger.

The wind outside the pavilion suddenly intensified, as if to uproot the few green bamboos.

In the northwest, a few black crows circled in the air not too far away, croaking, and occasionally a few pieces of black feathers were blown over by the wind and happened to land in the pavilion.

Gu Yanfei seemed to be unaware of the crisis in front of him, he dialed the compass, and counted with words...

The needle of the compass turned quiveringly, and a few snowflakes gently fell on the compass.

The sword light of the dagger beside him reflected into Xia Houqing's pupils, making his eyes colder, exuding a faint chill.

After the    pointer stopped, Gu Yanfei stared at the hexagram, calculated it, and said with a smile: "The emperor's star is dim, the saint of your country will be seriously ill in a month, and the battle for the throne will be turned upside down."

When she said this, her demeanor and tone were too casual, as if she was saying it in a joke.

This is a hexagram related to the fate of the country of Yue. She said this, not only does not make people feel awe-inspiring, but it makes people feel that she is like a deceived magic stick.

Xia Houqing wiped the last fingertip, rubbed the handkerchief in the palm of his hand, and said lightly, "It's better to kill it."

His voice was like the night wind, cold and erratic, with a smile on his lips.

Although he kept saying "kill", Gu Yanfei knew very well that his intention to kill was completely gone.

Gu Yanfei was not afraid at all, she pointed at the compass, and explained the hexagram above it in a serious manner: "Mountain wind Gu, Gen goes up and down. The "彖" says: Gu, just up and down softly, after the sun stops, Gu. "

speak English! Xia Houqing wrote impatience on his face, and threw away the square handkerchief in his hand.

The white handkerchief fell lightly on the red sleeves.

A man in black lightly jumped down from the wall not far away, appeared beside the withered old man, and whispered faintly: "Old Qi..."

The old man's eyes narrowed, and he walked quickly to Xiahouqing in the pavilion, and snorted.

Xia Houqing hooked his lips with interest, calm and relaxed.

Almost the next moment, there was a commotion in the direction of Zhuangzi's gate.

Dozens of guards with knives walked towards this side, surrounded by a young man in white, like the stars and the moon.

The guards perform their respective duties, some are responsible for opening the way, some guarding the sides, and some are responsible for the rear of the palace.

They held torches in their hands, and the scorching light of the flames illuminated the courtyard as bright as day, dispelling the surrounding darkness.

At the same time, ghost-like figures appeared silently from the surrounding walls, roofs, and tree crowns. They either held bows and arrows, or held long knives, murderous.

The two men and horses were facing each other like this. As long as their master gave an order or even a gesture, the two sides would immediately start a war, and blood would be splattered on the spot.

In this tense atmosphere, Chu Yi, who was surrounded by a layer of light fire, slowly walked over with a smile on his face and strolled in the courtyard.

Dressed in flawless white clothes, even whiter than the surrounding snow, his eyes are clear and deep, and his bearing is high, as if he came from the clouds and mists from the nine heavens, and his demeanor is unparalleled.
