Volume 1 | North Bird Does Not Return
This man with the surname Gu might have thought that he had come to apologize, but unfortunately, no matter how many people saw him, it looked as if he had come mainly to fight.
Gu Yun actually lives next to Chang Geng, but unlike Chang Geng’s place, the place he uses to settle down seems quite cold.
If Chang Geng said “There is no need to serve”, Governor Guo will definitely praise without shame “His Majesty’s Heart merges with the people”, then went on to send dozens of servants.
However, even though he gained a lot of courage, Mr. Guo still did not dare to speak of a single flattering word in front of Marshal Gu.
Gu Yun casually sent the command “Don’t bother coming” to where he lives. Except for the fearsome Black Iron Camp army, no one even dared to come half a step.
In a situation where he cannot see well and cannot hear, Gu Yun will become very agitated and tense, and especially hateful when there are strangers roaming nearby.
Shen Yi had not seen it so rigidly for so long, as if every tree and bush were enemy soldiers. He thought that perhaps by hiding in the small town of Yanhui for two years, Gu Yun had learned how to coexist peacefully with this vague concept of living together. But it seems impossible.
People who learn to live in peace are only “Shen Shiliu” alone, not Gu Yun.
Actually, Gu Yun, this person, although he usually carries an attitude of confidence and calmness, the truth is, eight to nine parts of it are just falsehood, but his acting is so real that no one can see the truth.
At the same time, even though their blindness and deafness are real, they look like they are just acting.
From this point of view, Marshal Gu has set himself an example for realizing the saying “right can be wrong, wrong can be right”. Shen Yi did not know whether he really lost something in his heart, or whether it was intentional.
Ah yes, his heart is also sincere and sincere, but it seems that not many people believe.
Towards night, when night had just started to fall and the dusk stars had not yet appeared, the first thing Gu Yun did after returning to his room was to turn on all the lights.
Then he removed the Liuli Glass, rubbed his eyes hard, and said to Shen Yi, “Get me my medicine.”
Shen Yi has a broken mouth that is delicate and polite. Apart from fighting in war, his side job is babbling; he did it with ease practiced, “Grand Marshal, thirty percent of the drug is still poisonous, when there is no extreme emergency, I believe you should drink as little as possible …”
Gu Yun stood under the lamp with a facial expression that remained unchanged, his gaze was somewhat dazed and he did not respond.
Shen Yi closed his mouth 一 he remembered, at this distance, Gu Yun could not hear it.
Gu Yun’s deafness is a trick to hold all broken mouths. One blow will surely kill, for years it has never failed even once. Shen Yi had to turn around in silence, and go to the kitchen to make medicine.
Liuli’s glass is very thin, pressing against both sides of the nose bridge. With just a slight change in temperature, the glass will condense a layer of white fog and completely obstruct the line of sight. Liuli glass is also quite fragile and can easily damage the eye when broken. Overall, it was very uncomfortable for military officers. But if it’s only used at home, it’s still okay to be used in urgent matters.
After Shen Yi came out again, Gu Yun had refrained the glass on the bridge of his nose, moved the ink, and began writing his report.
Although Governor Guo is only a small official on the border, his living conditions are not at all poor. The lights on the table are not just ordinary oil lamps, but steam lamps whose brightness can be adjusted. Judging from the complicated string design, maybe it was bought from the hands of people from the East.
There was also a clock from the West next to the steam lamp, and even though it was a fake product, it still looked as good as the original. If examined carefully, there are subtle signs on it that are used to indicate 12 earthly branches, 10 heavenly stems, and 12 hour periods in a day. In the upper left corner also has a small window with 24 alternating solar systems. This object does not appear to be fish or poultry. The bottom of the watch was transparent, gears big and small pushed forward. Gu Yun hates this thing because his teeth are very noisy when turning; he had considered asking people to get rid of him.
But that wasn’t important right now, after all he couldn’t hear it.
When Shen Yi returned with a bowl of medicinal soup, Gu Yun had just finished writing and put his brush down.
Gu Yun, “Check to see if something is wrong.”
The radiant luminous lights are dazzling, there are rows of Western women showing their chests on the lamp shade, all posing in a way that reveals every detail, Shen Yi uses her hands to protect the light and whispers, “Very vulgar.”
Then he quickly read Gu Yun’s report and sighed, “If something is wrong? Marshal, please forgive Shen’s low skills and shallow knowledge, because I did not see a single thing that was true in this matter.”
Gu Yun, “Huh? What?”
Shen Yi, “…….”
He raised the corner of Gu Yun’s report, put it back in Gu Yun’s arms, gently held his elbow, and pointed at the small sofa next to him, indicating that he should just go hang out there. Then Shen Yi opened her own paper, dipped the brush in ink, and tried to start writing a new one.
Gu Yun took the bowl of medicine and gulped it down with enthusiasm. He leaned against a beautifully carved sofa, didn’t even take off his shoes, then crossed his legs high and quietly waited for the medicine to take effect. At the same time, his hands were not idle 一 Gu Yun’s ten fingers quickly folded the report he had previously made into a paper bird, then aimed at the back of Shen Yi’s head.
How rude can this man be!
Shen Yi heard the sound of the wind and caught the paper bird with his hand. Seriously acknowledging defeat this time, he asked Gu Yun, “Can you hear me like this?”
“It’s okay, it’s still a little fuzzy,” Gu Yun said. “Either way, you may repeat what I have written before and make it sound better to me.”
Shen Yi sighed, “Marshal, you want to tell the Emperor that the Fourth Prince himself has seen the barbarian conspiracy, and has put aside his family love, giving us the chance to exterminate them in one fell swoop? Will you believe something like this?”
No one knew what kind of elixir Gu Yun had taken, two small moles under his eyes and in his earlobe seemed to have come back to life, once again glowing bright red.
“And if you don’t believe it?” Gu Yun asked, “If we don’t say that, will we tell His Majesty that I want to dominate Great Liang’s military power for a long time, if the Western Territory situation has just been completed but I have planned to take over military control from the Northern Border, and I immediately take advantage of his orders to protect the little Prince to run into the barbarians?
“Or should we say that I have secretly dipped my hand into the Ziliujin black market which has been repeatedly banned, and accidentally discovered that the amount of Ziliujin flowing into the markets in recent years is very abnormal?”
Shen Yi, “…….”
Gu Yun proudly spoke, “You can round it up and make it sound more believable, if not, what do I need you for? Besides, having a poor mother, Chang Geng, that child, after we return to the capital, he will likely be harmed by old bastards, you must dress her up well for me, say that the Fourth Prince has lived a terrible life but despite many trials and difficulties, sincere loyalty to the country in his heart has never diminished. , as long as His Majesty cries as he reads it, let me see who will dare to speak. “
Shen Yi, “……”
Gu Yun just made him persuade the Prince. Now he wants him to make the Emperor cry.
Shen Yi snickered and put down the brush, “Forgive this Shen for not having enough ink to write this, Marshal must go and ask another expert then.”
Gu Yun, “Ah!”
Shen Yi tilted his head and saw Gu Yun playing as a victim without the slightest shyness,
“My head hurts. It hurts, hurts, hurts, hurts enough to explode 一 Ji Ping’s brother, besides you, no one else will help and support me, how can you bear to abandon me like this? This desolate and despicable mortal world is truly heartless, what else do I have to live for? “
Then he gripped his chest and fell on the small sofa in the position of the coffin and played dead.
…… says your head hurts, then why are you gripping your chest?
Rows of blue veins appeared on the back of Shen Yi’s hand.
However, after a while Shen Yi still reluctantly sat down again, spread out the paper, carefully considered each word and sentence, and modified Gu Yun’s report.
After Gu Yun’s ‘corpse’ lay down, he did not return to life anymore, because his head really hurt. Shen Yi also knew that this was a side effect of the medicine.
After taking the medicine soup, there is a period of time needed to burn an incense where the eyes can see clearly and the hearing can be very sharp. When this period of time is over, the headache will start to kick, and even just opening his eyes will feel as if his surroundings are spinning. The sounds around him echoed near and in the distance.
These symptoms will gradually disappear after about half an hour. After that, his eyes and ears can function temporarily like normal people.
How long can he stay normal? That will be hard to say.
When Gu Yun took this medicine for the first time, the pain was so painful for him that he banged his head against the bedpost. After that, because he could see and hear clearly for more than three months, it almost made him forget that he still had two non-functioning parts of the body.
And as he uses it more often, on the one hand, he has acquired the skills to fall asleep no matter how much headache he has, but at the same time, the effectiveness of the drug seems to be slowly diminishing.
Until now, a single dose could only be effective for around three to five days.
“Maybe this will be useless in a few years …” Shen Yi thought.
Both 一 one sat, one lay 一 did not speak a word. Only when it came to the dark night and the sounds of the night patrol could be heard in the distance, Shen Yi finally put her brush down. He turned to take a blanket and cover Gu Yun.
Gu Yun still maintained the same sleeping position as before when he fell, completely immobile. Only her eyebrows were slightly entangled, her lips and cheeks looked pale white as if there were no traces of blood there. However, his two moles continued to shine brightly.
Shen Yi looked at him, then walked out cautiously.
•••••
The next day, when Marshal Gu woke up, he once again returned to being a Marquis of Order full of energy.
The day was still not yet clear but Shen Yi had been woken up by Gu Yun. He answered the door with eyes that were still sleepy, only to see Gu Yun who was very enthusiastic, “The item I ordered finally arrived. Just look, when I bring the item to apologize, I guarantee it can really calm the little boy’s anger. ! “
Shen Yi blinked loudly, suddenly an unpleasant feeling appeared in his heart.
The Marquis ordered the four soldiers of the Black Iron Camp to move a large box the size of a house pole, then march to Chang Geng’s place excitedly. When he passed a patch of mint that he had made bald the night before, Gu Yun took another leaf and put it in his mouth, not caring that the sharp edge pierced into his lips, he hummed a melody he had created himself, as if to express from afar that he had come down to visit.
As a result, one of his legs had just entered the doorway of Chang Geng’s courtyard when he was immediately greeted with a dangerous long sword that flew towards him. The closest waiter who brought the tea tray screamed in terror, the tray and everything on it shattered to pieces when it fell to the ground.
Gu Yun’s wrist fired a knife as big as a palm in an instant. Pressing the sword held by Chang Geng, the entire blade shot like a fish. The two sharp edges touch each other, creating a clanking sound. However, after Gu Yun flexed his fingers, Chang Geng’s wrist suddenly went numb and he almost had to let go of the long sword, forcing him to retreat.
Gu Yun pulled the knife back into the wristband, and with both hands behind his back, he smiled and said, “What has made His Majesty so upset this early in the morning? No problem, you can put all your anger on your subject.”
Chang Geng, “…….”
This man with the surname Gu might have thought that he had come to apologize, but unfortunately, no matter how many people saw him, it looked as if he had come mainly to fight.
