Reborn Master vs. School Beauty

Chapter 405

The bodyguards didn’t answer. They just looked at Kong Xuan. Kong Xuan said with a smile, "tell the king, this is just a villain’s unique skill, which can’t be used casually. But seeing that these assassins are good at their skills, in order not to let the brothers get hurt, I hastily sent the generals out and disturbed the king. I hope you can forgive me."

Li Qiang said with a smile, "how can I bring down the crime to you? You are a great meritorious official. I have no time to reward you. Now we are outside the palace. When we return to the palace, I will reward you again." Kong Xuan knelt down in a hurry and said, "it’s the villain’s duty to serve the king. The villain dare not have the heart to ask for rewards." Li Qiang said with a smile, "well, let’s talk about this later. What do you think of these assassins?"

Kong Xuan frowned: "although these people are dressed up as farmers, they have extraordinary skills. Moreover, their weapons are forged by experts. It is impossible without certain financial resources." Li Qiang said, "so, these people are not bandits in the mountains, but someone deliberately ordered me to assassinate me?" Kong Xuan nodded his head and said, "yes, in my opinion, the king should go back to the palace with us as soon as possible. It is not suitable to stay here for a long time. Since the news of the king’s private visit has leaked out, we’d better go back as soon as possible."

Li Qiang unexpectedly shook his head and said, "it seems that I am too timid to go back as soon as I come out. What’s more, I have nothing to worry about with you brave men around. Let’s talk less and keep on going."

Kong xuanming knew it was wrong, but Wang’s life was hard to disobey, so he had to ask the bodyguards to escort Li Qiang on his way. Li Qiang told Bian Ling to reward the boss with some seashells, and told him not to let out the news. The boss was scared out of his wits and quickly agreed to send Li Qiang and others off on his knees.

Sitting in the car, gongsunyue was full of doubts and said, "since the situation is so dangerous, why don’t you go back?" Li Qiang said: "what we can think of, others will think of it. If we go back according to the original road now, there must be more assassins waiting for us to take the bait. What we do now should be done in the opposite direction. First, we should make a big circle outside to make those enemies confused. Then we can find a chance to go home. In this way, we can be safe." Gongsun Yue worried: "but the enemy is not a fool. If they divide their forces a few ways, there is still a possibility of intercepting us."

Li Qiang said with a smile: "if they divide their troops, their strength will be weakened. It is easy to eliminate them one by one with Kong Xuan’s strength." Gongsun Yue sighed and said, "you are a real man. Why don’t you worry at all? Everything is just in case. There are more than 20 of us. Even if Kong Xuan is more powerful, there will be times when evil tigers are difficult to defeat wolves. If there are masters in the other camp, how do you deal with them?" Li Qiang said, "in your opinion, what should we do?"

Gongsun Yue said, "I have a place to go. We should go there to hide ourselves. When the assassins can’t find us, we will naturally retreat. Then we can go back safely."

Li Qiang said, "well, I’ll listen to you. Where is the destination you mentioned?" Gongsun Yue said, "March eastward for thirty miles. After crossing a river, a forest will appear. Our hiding place is in that forest." Li Qiang called Kong Xuan over and asked Gongsun Yue to tell him where he was going. Kong Xuan was puzzled and said, "king, the forest is full of wolves, tigers and leopards. It is said that there are many demons in the world. It is a very dangerous and ferocious place. What are we going to do there?" Li Qiang said, "this is Miss Gongsun’s idea. You can follow her orders."

Kong Xuan looked suspicious and thought, "I don’t know what kind of madness the king is today. First, he wants to go out of the palace for private visit. When he encounters an assassination, he doesn’t go back immediately. He still has to move on. Now he believes in a demon girl’s lies and asks us to go to that dangerous forest to die. What is he really about?"

There is silence in the forest, the sun is shining through the shade among the leaves, like stars in the sky, some dazzling, but it is very crystal beautiful, showing an unpredictable silence. The light and shadow, looming around, fluttered leisurely. The hare, hiding behind the Bush, looked around with timid eyes. It seemed that it was out to look for food. But suddenly a cold light flashed by, and the hare fell on the ground rigidly. Then a crystal jade hand lifted it up, and the slender and graceful figure left.

Li Qiang used to play in the woods behind his hometown mountain when he was a child. He dug birds’ eggs in the trees, dug mushrooms under the trees, and chased and played with his friends. All of these are so beautiful. But after he followed the guards into this area, which is known as the dangerous forest, his childhood memories are useless at all, because the forest is too overcast Cold, even through the leaves cast a little bit of sunlight are so strange and mysterious, the light spot on everyone’s face, reflecting everyone’s heart uneasiness and fear.

Kong Xuan ordered his men to mark the trees so as not to get lost in the forest, but he was still very dissatisfied. He was still full of doubts and even angry about the king’s partial belief in gongsunyue. These bodyguards under him were brothers who had been living and dying for many years. If he lost his life because of the woman’s suggestion, he would not hesitate to fight with her.

Seeing the discontent on Kong Xuan’s face, Gongsun Yue secretly said to Li Qiang, "the Lord Kong under your command seems to be very dissatisfied with me. People are a little worried that he will retaliate. Can the king relieve my worries for me?" Li Qiang held her Yingying jade hand and said with a smile, "don’t worry. They all listen to me. They won’t do anything to you." Gongsun Yueyou sighed and said: "women’s status in the world is very low. Even if you say more words in front of men, you will be discriminated against. If there is any accident in the forest that causes the casualties of those people around you, I am really worried that Lord Kong will treat me..."Hearing this, Li Qiang got out of the car without saying a word. He came to Kong Xuan’s horse and said, "general Kong, I have something to tell you." Seeing this, Kong Xuan quickly got off the horse and bowed down and said, "if the king has anything to tell me to do, it is just that he condescends to lecture in front of the villain horse, which really breaks the villain." Li Qiang said: "everyone is a man. Don’t talk nonsense. I can see that you are dissatisfied with the Gongsun girl around me. Therefore, I come to talk with you about this matter. What do you think?"

Kong Xuan frowned: "the villain is not biased against that girl, but she has no idea of her origin and guides us into this dangerous forest. The villain has doubts indeed." Li Qiang said: "Miss Gongsun is my friend and a wonderful friend. I believe in my friends very much. Naturally, I believe what she says. Since I was a child, I have known that there is no doubt in employing people. You are a loyal minister. I fully trust you and hope you can believe my decision. Can you accept it? " Kong Xuan immediately knelt down and kowtowed, and said with trembling, "I dare not disobey the king’s order if I die. I have written down all the words the king said."

Li Qiang nodded his head and said, "that’s good. If you can carry this matter over, I’ll reward you guards from life to death." Kong Xuanlian repeatedly said yes, and his attitude was very respectful.

He went back to the car and said, "it’s done. You don’t have to worry about it." Gongsun Yue said with a smile, "I just casually said a few words. You are so inspiring. I’m really embarrassed." Li Qiang looked at her starry eyes and said, "you are a smart woman. Everything I do is in fact what you expect, right?"

Gongsun Yue was stunned. She didn’t expect that Li Qiang could explain her mind in a single word. However, she was very quick to deal with it. She said with a smile: "what’s your majesty saying? Is the king’s mind something that people like me can guess at random?"
