Picking up a greedy snake [Liao Zhai]

When Gu Huai woke up, he felt that there wasn't a single bone in his body that wasn't in pain.

He found himself tied to the pillar with both feet suspended in the air by a soft and long vine. After struggling twice, he found that the vine seemed to have a spirituality, and it was embedded deeper into his flesh. To strangle his bones.

Gu Huai gave up struggling, lowered his head, and shouted weakly: "Liu'er..."

As soon as he yelled, he saw the little girl running to his side with a handful of grass in her hand.

Because Liu'er was too petite, she had to move a ponytail to step on it, so that she could barely meet Gu Huai's eyes.

She smiled heartlessly and asked, "Brother Gu, have you made Brother Yan angry? I've never seen him get so angry!"

Gu Huai smiled wryly and shook his head. He just contradicted Yan Chixia because he was agitated and couldn't control his emotions. He also knew that there would be no good fruit if he confronted Yan Chixia head-on at this moment... But, He just couldn't control his temper.

Seeing that Gu Huai didn't respond to her, Liu'er's smile gradually drooped.She stretched out her hand, and brought a handful of green grass to Gu Huai's eyes, shook it, and said, "Brother Gu, is he hungry, I'll give you some grass. Liu Er just went outside to pick this in the morning!"

Gu Huai smiled and said, "Big Brother is not a rabbit, so Big Brother doesn't eat grass."

Liu'er tilted her head and thought for a while, then asked: "Brother is a human, so he doesn't eat grass, so does brother eat rabbits?"

Gu Huai was at a loss for words for a moment, not knowing how to answer.

Liu'er continued on her own: "Oh, today was terrible. I finished picking grass and was about to come back, but I ran into a fox, you know? I actually ran into a fox! Fortunately, my life is running fast Otherwise, Big Brother won’t be able to see Liu’er!”

"Fox...fox?"

"Yes, it's terrible. My parents were eaten by foxes. Now I see foxes and my legs go limp!"

For some reason, Gu Huai suddenly thought of the face of Wang Huacheng he saw before he passed out.

"What kind of fox is it?"

"Red fox! The one that glows... By the way, I'm not only afraid of foxes, I'm also afraid of snakes..."

Liu'er was still chattering about her fear of foxes, while Gu Huai answered absent-mindedly, his thoughts had already flown thousands of miles away.

According to Liu Er's words just now, Gu Huai guessed that there were very few foxes in this area before.In other words, Yan Chixia knew that Liu'er was afraid of foxes, so she had driven all the foxes here to extinction.

Then, the fox that suddenly appeared must be an alien species.

Could it be that this fox... is Huang Jiulang?

Thinking of Wang Huacheng he met in the restaurant, Gu Huai became more determined.

Inexplicably, a fire of hope suddenly ignited in his heart, but he suddenly remembered that he and Huang Jiulang were incompatible enemies. No matter how miserable he fell, Huang Jiulang had no position to save him.

Therefore, if he wants to get help from others, he must give others a corresponding "remuneration".

He had to give a bargaining chip and ask Huang Jiulang to help him...

Gu Huai closed his eyes and fell into endless contemplation.

At night, there were bursts of even and long snoring in the hall.Gu Huai knew that most of the people here had fallen asleep, so he only left a few guards at the door to keep watch.

But he didn't feel sleepy at all.

Suddenly, he saw a wisp of red smoke drifting in from the crack of the door, so he subconsciously closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep.

After a long time, he felt a few cold and slender fingers caressing his cheeks, and gently lifted his chin.

The eyelashes on Gu Huai's lower eyelids began to tremble uncomfortably. He couldn't pretend anymore, so he simply opened his eyes, and an indistinguishable and beautiful face came into view.

The man stroked Gu Huai's chin and smiled: "Long time no see, Mr. Gu."

Gu Huai also smiled: "Long time no see, Mr. Nianhe... oh no... I should call you... Jiulang."

Huang Jiulang didn't refute, just looked around with his eyelids lifted, and said: "This morning, Hua Cheng came to me and told me that I ran into Mr. Gu in the Jinchun Tower, and saw that you were in a poor situation, your body was weak, and you were raped by wicked people. It might be dangerous to hold you hostage, so he was very worried, so he asked me to come and see you."

"Brother Huacheng...how is he?"

Huang Jiulang didn't answer his question: "You know what? It's been a long time, this is the first time he's willing to talk to me...it's for you."

As he said that, the expression on Huang Jiulang's face became a little distorted and hideous.

Gu Huaiyun said calmly: "What? The last time I saw you, didn't he still love you to death?"

"It's all your fault!" Huang Jiulang looked at him fiercely, and growled, "It's all your fault for getting him that pomegranate fruit for him to eat... He stopped loving me after eating that fruit... Do you know, I wish I could kill you!"

Gu Huai sneered: "Are you kidding me? What does this matter have to do with me? Last time I persuaded that kid to eat fruit, he didn't eat it."

Huang Jiulang's expression became more and more distorted, and in the end, big teardrops oozed from his red eyes.He slumped against the wall and slid to the ground, folded his arms and cried bitterly.

Gu Huai quietly looked at Huang Jiulang who fell to the ground crying, without saying a word.

"You don't understand... I used to like that bastard He Zixiao. Back then, when I went to seduce Fatty Sun, because Fatty Sun and He Zixiao didn't get along, someone surnamed He begged me to seduce Fatty Sun and take the opportunity to kill him. My heart As soon as I softened, I agreed. At that time, on the one hand, I had no more love for him, and on the other hand, he and my third sister were married, and I was willing to help him for the sake of my third sister."

"As for turning into a fox trick, it was actually a complete accident. I used fox tricks on everyone present at the time. It stands to reason that you should also be recruited, but for some reason, the fox trick doesn't seem to work for you."

"Later, when Huacheng became obsessed with me, I discovered his value... At that time, I was full of intentions to use his hands to kill Fatty Sun. Because if I did it myself, I would violate the clan rules and be punished." .”

"Later, Hua Cheng killed Sun Chengyu and ran away with me. I still liked He Zixiao at that time, so I stayed with Hua Cheng during the day and had an affair with He Zixiao at night."

"When you ran away, you didn't lend us any money. It turned out that he made money on his own along the way, and he gave all the money he earned to me. I secretly brought the money to He Zixiao at night to make up for him and Sanniang. s home."

"Afterwards, this matter was exposed... When I became discouraged, I ate the fruit and ignored me again. After he ignored me, I realized that I had fallen in love with him... I really, couldn't lose him."

After Huang Jiulang finished speaking, he cried for a long time before Gu Huai said, "Love him? No, you don't call him loving him. You just think he's easy to use. You just lost a useful tool for a while, and you're not used to it."

"You nonsense!" Huang Jiulang jumped up with tears on his face.

"If you really love him, you won't have the heart to hurt him or use him from the very beginning. You don't know what love is, and you don't know how to love others. You treat He Zixiao with no dignity, and you do everything you can to Wang Huacheng. Exploitation as much as possible. In fact, you don’t love anyone, you only love yourself, and you are just acting a so-called love story that moves you to tears.”

Huang Jiulang wiped away his tears, gritted his teeth and looked at him, suddenly remembered something, with a malicious smile on his face.

"What you said, it seems that Mr. Gu understands it well..." He leaned closer to Gu Huai and sniffed his neck, "Then how did he get to this point, treating you as his beloved Lan Yuyan? How could he Not coming to save you? Huh?"

Gu Huai looked at the provocative Huang Jiulang, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said calmly, "I know you didn't come here to quarrel with me, nor did you come here to see my jokes. Let's have a good talk, shall we?"

Huang Jiulang was stunned for a while, he didn't provoke Gu Huai, he was very upset in his heart, but he had nowhere to vent, so he turned his head unwillingly.

"I just ask you to do me a favor. Go to Tianting to find Lan Yuyan, tell him about this place, and ask him to bring troops over on the night of April [-]th. Remember to capture Bo Tian on the night of April [-]th." .You tell him it will work this time."

"Oh? You want to ask your lover to bring rescuers to save you, but why should I help you?" Huang Jiulang raised his eyebrows and asked frivolously

Gu Huai looked straight into his eyes, and a determined smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "If this is successful, I will assign the land of the four poles to the fox clan, and protect your fox clan from war and disaster forever."

Huang Jiulang was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then looked at Gu Huai with a puzzled expression on his face, and said, "Heh, your tone is not small, do you think I'm a three-year-old?"

"I will do what I say, and I will not lie in the slightest."

Huang Jiulang squinted his fox eyes and stared at Gu Huai.Gu Huai looked at him without flinching.

I have to say that this condition is indeed very attractive to Huang Jiulang.The fox clan has experienced wars and ups and downs in the past few hundred years. A while ago, there was a famine in Qingqiu Mountain, where the fox clan gathered, and the plague followed, causing countless deaths and injuries to their clan.

As for the land of four poles that Gu Huai mentioned, since 300 years ago, it has changed from a land of ice and snow to a land of four seasons like spring.The resources are abundant and the scenery is beautiful.And there are many mountain peaks as a barrier.

If the Fox Clan can really move their capital here, it will undoubtedly benefit future generations.

However, Huang Jiulang still couldn't understand how such a small mortal, Gu Huai, dared to give such a condition.

He kept staring at Gu Huai's eyes, hoping to find a little bit of guilt and hesitation, but what he saw was a scorching firmness and sincerity.

He was even more puzzled, and couldn't help asking: "I have something I want to ask Mr. Gu, what exactly are you planning?"

Gu Huai laughed again, but this laugh made Huang Jiulang feel a little shuddering.

Gu Huai's thin lips parted slightly, and he lowered his voice slightly: "I plan to... devour Bo Tian."
