Ji Sihui: Abandoning one's life and making it difficult for the enemy to retreat
Gu Yuejue has always been very confident in her silent hiding method, and what surprised her was that she had not made any mistakes this time, Dong Cheng noticed it.
Then she thought that she felt something was wrong. Judging from Dong Cheng's calm expression and the reaction of the servants around him, he was prepared for it.
Dong Cheng's extremely cold and sharp eyes made Gu Yuejue's heart chills spread. He turned around and walked to the couch and sat down to look at her: "Let's hear, who sent you to kill me?"
Gu Yuejue did not answer his intention, and calmly observed the two sword-holding men standing in front of him. Instead, he made a decision between retreating and escaping here to find another opportunity and rushing forward. From a rational perspective, it is not advisable to fight hard now. Not only may he be unable to take revenge and may be killed.
But I thought I knew that the other party would not let him escape without any hesitation, but in fact I had no choice.
She stood up, regardless of the trauma of her shoulder and the impact she suffered when she fell to the ground, she was ready to break through and take Dong Cheng's life.
"It seems you are planning to resist stubbornly."
Seeing that Gu Yuejue didn't plan to submit, Dong Cheng waved his right hand to the two men beside him:
"Don't kill her, it's useful for me to keep her."
Two men holding swordsman looked at each other and smiled strangely, then they pointed the sword in their hands at Gu Yuejue. One of them pointed at Gu Yuejue's legs with the tip of the sword blade and said, "If that happens, she can only cut off her legs..."
Another man shook his head: "I think it's better to cut off your hands..."
Immediately afterwards, the two of them smiled more and more strangely. Then they waved their swords and rushed towards her, shouting in unison:
"If this happens, you'll cut it all!"
Guo Jia, Hu Zhao and Sima Yi hurried to the door of Dong's mansion. The housekeeper in charge of welcoming guests recognized Hu Zhao whom he met last night and Guo Jia who was on the invitation. Thinking that Dong Cheng had told him that if he saw them and Xun Yu coming, he must be treated with courtesy and not neglect at all, so he went up to him from afar and bowed:
"I don't know if the two gentlemen are coming, they are in a hurry to welcome you."
They all strongly restrained their urgent moods, and Guo Jia smiled as if nothing had happened:
"I am now facing the birthday of Mr. Dong Guoming. Thanks to his sincere invitation, how dare we not come?"
As Guo Jia expected, the housekeeper did not ask about the invitation and respectfully welcomed them to the mansion. Not only that, even Sima Yi, who had never met before, was allowed to take special care of him because of his company.
After successfully entering Dong's mansion, the three of them looked at each other and nodded together, looking for Gu Yuejue's trace separately.
Sima Yi was not familiar with the terrain of Dong's mansion, so he had no sense of direction, but he heard the maids talking like this:
"It's strange. Today is the master's birthday. Why didn't he come out to welcome guests?"
"I heard that the master and the prince's servants, two generals Wu Zilan were discussing important matters in the study, and no one was allowed to get close to him."
"But I heard from the people who gave the Chinese uniform that there seemed to be a fight in the master's study room. I also ordered the servants to keep firmly at the door of the study room and not let others approach, and I don't know what they were doing..."
"Shh, whisper, don't worry about things that shouldn't be our care."
Listening to their discussion, Sima Yi knew it, and I guess Gu Yuejue must have fought with Dong Cheng. Although he didn't know where Dong Cheng's study was, there was a place to guard it, so it must be.
After having a clear goal, Sima Yi tiptoed around looking for suspicious destinations, and finally found a arched door at the corner of the wall with two burly servants guarding the left and right. There was a vague sound inside, but Sima Yi didn't understand martial arts. Although there was no feather meteor in his hand, it would be difficult to rush in and face the enemy and rescue Gu Yuejue directly.
Suddenly, a hand stretched out from behind him...
Gu Yuejue was injured and fought against the two Dong Cheng's confidant generals of Prince Fu and Wu Zilan alone, so naturally she couldn't get any advantage. After several fights, not only could she not get close to Dong Cheng, but she was beaten to pieces all over her body and stained her clothes with blood. Even the black veil covering her face was also picked by Wu Zilan.
"It's a pity that I wasted in vain. I didn't expect that I was such a beautiful woman."
Dong Cheng was quite surprised by Gu Yuejue's as a woman:
"Don't worry, it's still a little distance from the front hall. Even if you are killed, no one will find it here, so don't expect someone to come to save you. But I'll give you another chance, who sent you here?"
Gu Yuejue had almost exhausted all her strength. She squatted on the ground and gasped. Her bloody hands were still holding the short knife tightly. Dong Cheng could tell her determination from his eyes, so he gave up the plan to capture her alive:
"Kill her..."
As soon as he finished speaking, two short arrows suddenly flew in from outside the door. Wu Zilan and Prince Fu almost had no time to hide. Dong Cheng frowned: "Do you have any accomplices?"
Seeing that Gu Yuejue had lost consciousness and fell to the ground and showed signs of coma, Dong Cheng winked at Wu Zilan and Wang Zifu. The two understood their intentions and hid the short sword in their sleeves and pushed the door out, but there was no one outside the house.
Dong Cheng walked to the door and saw the empty courtyard and two servants who fell to the ground by arrows at the arched entrance. He couldn't help but feel angry: "He is still in the mansion, and it must be easy to find the crossbow in his hand. Find him out for me and don't scare the guests."
Wu and Wang took the order and left. Shortly after they left, someone suddenly jumped off the roof and landed behind Dong Cheng. Before Dong Cheng could see the person's appearance, he hugged Gu Yuejue and jumped up and jumped onto the roof again.
"Come!"
However, when the servant heard the news, it was already over, and the man had already disappeared.
Dong Cheng could no longer suppress his anxiety. He ordered the birthday party to be cancelled and the assassination was posted, and carefully checked all the people in the mansion. He was so angry that he did not even let go of the dignitaries and officials from the same dynasty who came to congratulate him, which made the situation very tense.
After checking whether the visitors had invitations one by one, Prince Fu found that Sima Yi, who was sitting in the front hall drinking tea, not only had no invitations, but also planned to search him. Even though Sima Yi's featherless meteor was the kind of hidden weapon that was easy to carry and difficult to find, it was difficult to escape the level of carefully searching.
Although he was up and down, he knew that if he was panic at this moment, it would be like not to tell oneself.
"General Wang, please wait."
At this moment, Guo Jia walked out of the crowd. Wang Zifu met Guo Jia, but he still did not let Sima Yi go:
"What's the matter with Mr. Fengxiao?"
Guo Jia stepped forward and smiled:
"This person came with me in company is Sima Zhongda, the second son of Lord Sima Fang. There is no need to search it, right?"
Prince Fu did not intend to stop and let him go because he was Sima Fang's son: "So what?"
Seeing that he did not sell Sima Fang's favor, Guo Jia's face looked a little gloomy and his tone was almost threatening:
"He is His Majesty's classmate and friend. In the past, Sima Yi stepped forward to protect His Majesty and was injured. His Majesty is very grateful to him. I think if you are rude to him and cause His Majesty to blame him, I wonder if the general's neck is hard enough?"
When the prince heard about Sima Yi and Liu Xie's relationship, the prince couldn't help but feel timid and waved his hand to order the soldiers to let Sima Yi go.
While Dong Cheng had not arrived yet, Guo Jia quickly left Dong's mansion with Hu Zhao and Sima Yi.
After leaving the mansion, Sima Yi looked around and said to them:
"Gu Yuejue has been rescued, and we will return to Zhong Mansion immediately!"
