Chapter 279 Haze
Since the mysterious explosion, the streets of Chudu have been inexplicably covered with haze, because the people cannot believe a rumor, but have to face up to what they have seen with their own eyes.
In that explosion, Gu Yue, the dean of the Chu Alchemist Academy, was seriously injured and unconscious.
This situation was witnessed by many people because many people ran to the site of the incident as soon as possible, some for curiosity and some for rescue, but what they saw was the young man who had been in a wheelchair who had been in high spirits and was carried onto the carriage by Jingzhao Yin's yamen runners, and without any stop, he headed straight to the academy.
As for the iconic wheelchair that belongs to Gu Yue, it is nowhere to be seen.
Many people couldn't believe this was true, because it was not the first time they had seen Gu Yue, but this magical Lord Gu has always turned into good fortune. Why is this different this time?
Lord Huang, the Yin of Jingzhao, specifically explained to the people that it was, "Just just now, I explored a secret room here, but someone had planted a large amount of gunpowder in advance. When they found out, they had no time to deal with it. But the yamen runners did not have the ability to understand the sky and the earth. In that secret room, they could not escape from heaven. At this moment, Lord Gu ignored his safety and took the initiative to cut off the back and threw all the explosions into his hands. He must see that everyone was evacuated before leaving!
But... but Lord Gu was unable to move! His wheelchair could not climb the long secret staircase by himself! The yamen runners would never want to see Lord Gu in danger because of them, but Lord Gu was extremely cruel at that time, and ordinary people could not get close to him. The brothers had to hold back their tears and ran out, hoping that Lord Gu could create miracles again...
But the miracle did not happen, and the heat wave of the explosion still spread. At this moment, the guards assigned by the officer and the master of the Majesty arrived at the scene. The guards rushed down with all their might before carrying Lord Gu back, but he was already covered in wounds and dying...
It's all my fault for being incompetent!" Huang Youwei not only burst into tears but also slapped himself hard. "In order not to let me follow me, Lord Gu specially instructed me to do other things, and at the same time he did not let Lord Gu accompany him. At that time, I should have known that Lord Gu was worried that I was seriously injured and Chu Hui did not want me to take risks again! I should have known!"
This moving performance resonated a lot, especially the people who were rescued by Gu Yue personally cried and burst into tears, as if Gu Yue's pain had hurt their hearts.
The news spread like wildfire for a moment, and it should be said that the people were rushing to tell me, because they were really worried about Lord Gu's safety. If everyone knew about this matter as soon as possible, it would be possible for those who might be helpful to Lord Gu's injury to come and help.
These scenes are naturally seen and heard in the hearts of many interested people.
When Jingzhao Yin's carriage arrived at the academy, the people spontaneously surrounded the entrance of the academy, wanting to confirm the situation of Lord Gu as soon as possible, which also gave many people the opportunity to get involved because they wanted to know more.
When Gu Yue was carried into the academy in a dusty state, the academy was in a panic. It was the first time they saw their Lord Gu like this. Even if he was the master of the Sky-level Sword, he was just a little tired. What was going on?!
But Huang Youwei let them know what everyone can know, and they firmly believe in this content because it is indeed what Lord Gu did!
The students spontaneously came to Gu Yue's room without any instructions, but they knew they could do nothing, and they just kept crying without saying a word.
This atmosphere is very bad, and the stormy guards can't help but move.
"Enough!"
A voice that should have been soft suddenly interrupted everyone's thoughts. It turned out to be Shangguan Lien of the Valley.
The dean's wife was obviously always loud, so she received a response immediately.
"Crying can't solve any problem. Now, everyone immediately left the surroundings. Your dean needs to be quiet! Go and do whatever he should do. Then send someone to the Shangguan family to deliver a letter, telling my father and Uncle Qin's situation, and let them come and see. In addition, please ask Lord Huang to send someone to invite an imperial physician to see Lord Gu. Most of the famous doctors on the street should have been taken to the military camp. Finally, everyone remembered one thing and cheered me up. Before Lord Gu improved, the college was closed to thank the guests. Who should not enter without permission? Do you understand?"
"Yes, madam!"
"There is another very important point. Don't make any statements or explanations about Lord Gu's affairs, especially don't tell Chief Guard Fang. I believe your dean will not want him to worry about him."
"Understood."
This courage, this command, and this close and meticulousness made Huang Youwei amazed and almost forgot his role because of distractedness. Fortunately, this man was indeed talented, so he immediately devoted himself to his role and took the guards of the heaven and rushed to the palace.
After everything was arranged, Shangguan Linglan walked into Gu Yue's room alone and quickly closed the door. At this moment, tears burst out on his own.
But she always covered her mouth without making a cry, and just approached Gu Yue quietly, preparing to wipe him with a towel first. The originally tender but steady face was covered with a lot of darkness, as if it was burned or charcoal ash, but the dark eyes were still looking at her with radiant spirit, as if...
"Um?!"
A smirk made all Shangguan Linglun’s thoughts mess up. She was stunned and took two breaths on the spot. Then she rushed over viciously, grabbed Gu Yue’s ear and pulled it hard!
"Ouch~, be gentle, it hurts!"
"You bastard! You still know it hurts?"
"Shhhh! Sigh down, act!"
"I don't know you yet?! I must have opened my eyes after I got out the soundproof barrier again! You big bastard!"
It was both angry and funny, but Shangguan Lien Lu's tears still remained unstoppable.
Seeing Gu Yue felt distressed and pulled the beauty in front of her into her arms, "I'm sorry, it was not prepared in advance. I really didn't expect that the place was a trap against me, so I just used the trick. But I really didn't plan to hide it from you. I was just worried that someone would leak news in the academy, so I specifically asked Huang Youwei to perform this drama, and I must have explained it myself... Okay, don't cry, okay? If you cry again, you will become a little cat!"
"You bastard! It's necrotic and necrotic!"
Shangguan Linglun, who had sunny weather after the rain, kept hitting Gu Yue's chest with his pink fist, and it made a thud and directly hit Gu Yue until he coughed...
"Uh...you deserve it!"
"It's okay, I deserve it. I don't deserve it, my hand hurts, right?"
"Hmph! I really want to ignore you!"
"Don't, the most important role you have to go on stage in person, otherwise it will be difficult to convince people."
"Oh, okay, let me record this account first!"
"Yes, yes, you have the final say. Actually, this time I went to discover that it was really the underground casino that the Changsun family once operated. However, the building was empty, but there were three boxes of gold. I was wondering, if it was a trap, this thing would not be attractive to me. Is the other party so unwise? At this moment, the guard of Huang Youwei found something strange but couldn't understand. I felt it carefully, and behaved, the entire secret room was put on gunpowder, which was to blow me up directly! And the stairs were also considered to be for me, because they all thought that my wheelchair could not climb the stairs by themselves, but unfortunately they miscalculated, so I escaped with everyone and had a plan."
"Can you climb stairs in your wheelchair?"
"Yes, don't mind. I haven't mentioned it, because I don't think it's a big deal. As my ability becomes stronger and stronger, I have more skills. Besides, I, who is unable to move, have to consider this kind of thing first, right? But every time I enter the palace, I will wait for those little eunuchs and guards to help me. In fact, I'm just too lazy to explain, so this matter is an unintentional secret. I never thought that the design of those guys in the "black market" was deviated. It seems that God is helping me!"
"She's so pretty! Tell me what I'm going to do next?"
"Well, first of all, it is naturally a time to test your acting skills. I need the kind of pretending to be calm but secretly hurt. Is it challenging to be confused and have to do everything as usual. I really want to cry but still force my face to laugh. Isn't it very challenging?"
"How could there be any challenge? To put it bluntly, just pretend that nothing happened. That's what I planned, and I stopped the crying of those students just now. You bad guy must have laughed secretly, right?"
"If you dare not, you can calm down. Please give me everything."
"What if Ji Huang and the others heard the wind coming?"
"You can only let Ji Huang know the truth alone, especially to hide it from Tang Mulin."
"Why is this? He must be very concerned about your safety."
"It is precisely because he will definitely care, and when he knows that my problem is serious, he will be very angry, right? But what if he knows the truth? Can he still show this state? To put it bluntly, you have never seen him lie, right? I have never seen someone as upright as him. Don't force him to deceive himself."
"That's right... I called Uncle Qin, do you want to hide it from him? In addition, the imperial physician is coming soon."
"I can't hide this. I will let Uncle Qin know that I'm fine. As for the imperial physician, it's easy to fool."
"Okay, then you can continue to pretend to be unconscious. Don't worry, I'll have everything!"
He couldn't help but hold Shangguan Linglu's face and pecked hard. Gu Yue returned to the coma with a successful smile.
The shy Shangguan Linglan reached out and hit Gu Yue hard before calming herself back down. She began to wipe him with a towel, and waited for the supporting roles to appear.
