Longevity begins with slaying demons and eliminating demons

Chapter 494

"Gu Xu, take a closer look for me, are there a few white hairs on my head?" On the way to the stable, Zhao Yan asked Gu Xu beside her.

The love experience from Emperor Ziwei told Gu Xu that the most correct answer at this time is "Your Majesty is young and beautiful, how could he have gray hair".

But he knew very well that such clumsy rhetoric could not fool Zhao Yan.

So he gently brushed aside her black and soft hair, looking for those silvery whites that were looming, and said in a concerned tone: "You must have had a hard time these days..."

"It's not because of you, Master." Zhao Yan narrowed her eyes, her expression was lazy, like a coquettish cat, "as soon as my disciple came to the throne, Master left and flew away, so that disciple had to put a heavy burden on a country by himself." Carrying the burden on his shoulders, he dealt with all kinds of annoying political affairs all day long."

"It's my fault," Gu Xu lowered his head slightly, and pulled out a few scattered white hairs for her, "This time, I won't leave again."

"Really? Don't lie to me."

"When did I ever lie to you? To be honest, the most important purpose of my coming to the north this time is to marry you."

Hearing the words "marry you as a wife", Zhao Yan was stunned for a moment, and after confirming that she had heard correctly, she said leisurely, "But I haven't agreed yet."

"Then how about I propose to you now?" Gu Xu smiled, looked into her charming eyes, and said sincerely, "Yan'er, I like you and want to spend the rest of my life with you. Would you like to marry me?" ?"

Gu Xu's confession is not at all the implicit and euphemistic literary style of the people of the wilderness, but full of the straightforwardness of the past and modern people.

But Zhao Yan just followed the straight line.

She wrapped her arms around his neck and gave him an affirmative answer with a passionate kiss.

Under the long hair of crow feather color, the snow-white skin of her neck was bathed in golden sunlight, as if dyed with a layer of sweet honey.

"Together for a lifetime," she murmured softly, her arms became tighter and tighter, as if she was afraid that Gu Xu would escape from her arms, "You have to keep your word..."

"En." Gu Xu hugged her, gently stroking the beautiful curve of her back.

The two lingered for a long time by the corner.

Then Zhao Yan walked into the stable and led the horse "Big Red" out.

With a light leap, she jumped onto the horse's back.

The bright red dress fluttered with the wind, like a burning flame.

"Come on!" She grabbed the rein with one hand, and stretched out her other hand to Gu Xu, "You sit in the front today, and I will teach you how to ride a horse."

Looking back at this, Xu is no longer polite and coy.

He grabbed her slender white jade hand and climbed onto the horse's back.

Zhao Yan handed the rein to him, put her chin on his shoulder, and whispered in his ear: "The rein is the most effective way to control the horse, you should hold it tightly with both hands, and never loosen it at any time." open.

"When walking slowly, you can stand upright and sit in the saddle.

"But if you want to run fast, you have to clamp the horse's back hard with your knees, lean forward, hips and saddle seem to touch, and rise and fall with the rhythm of the horse's running...

"You are a beginner, we can take it slowly..."

Her lips were very close to his ears, and Ru Lan's breath lingered in his ears, tickling, making his heart beat slightly faster.

However, at this moment, "Big Red" suddenly spread its hooves and galloped forward like an arrow leaving the string.

Zhao Yan was startled.

She thought the beast had suddenly gone crazy, so she reflexively snatched the rein from Gu Xu's hand, trying to stop it, lest Gu Xu, a novice, get hurt.

But soon she was surprised to find that under such circumstances, Gu Xu was not only calm and unflappable, he was as calm as a battle-tested old rider, and even slightly closed his eyes, as if enjoying this intense and exciting feeling.

I saw "Big Red" running wildly in the streets and alleys of Jicheng.

It seems to have passed the wisdom, bypassing the crowd, avoiding the shops, crossing the ditch, and crossing the bridge, as nimble and light as a flying swallow.

Because Gu Xu secretly used the causal spell, the passers-by around ignored their existence—even though the two were of extraordinary status and behaved in a public manner, others ignored them.

Zhao Yan felt more and more incredible.

She knew that "Big Red" was a wild horse known for its rebelliousness—she had spent a lot of effort to tame it.

Unexpectedly, it would obey the command of Gu Xu, a novice rider, so much!
She hugged Gu Xu's waist tightly with her white arms, leaned against his back, and said in a soft voice: "Is the master secretly using spells to cheat?"

Gu Xu felt the cloud-like softness behind him, and responded with a smile: "What do you think?"

"..."

There is no doubt that Gu Xu is taking advantage of this opportunity to test the newly acquired authority of "rule".

The remnant soul of Emperor Ziwei claims that this authority can manipulate people's hearts.

But Gu Xu has always held a cautious attitude towards this authority, and will not use it easily, let alone abuse it on his own people like Emperor Ziwei did.

The power of "controlling" caused the arrogance of Ziwei to regard others as pawns deep in his heart, always thinking that "everything is under control".

And this is also the key factor why he lost to Taishang Haotian and finally fell into Gu Xu's hands.

Of course, being prudent doesn't mean being completely useless.

Gu Xu believes that he still has the necessary proficiency to deal with the "dominant" authority - perhaps in the future when dealing with the enemy, it will become a trump card to turn things around.

"Big Red" became his first "little white mouse".

Gu Xu clearly felt that he and the soul of "Big Red" were connected by an invisible thread - he could use this thread to control all its actions as if manipulating a remote control.

But the use of "rule" is far more than that.

This authority still has great potential, waiting for him to tap slowly.

When the military camp on the outskirts of the city appeared in the field of vision of the two, Gu Xu withdrew the "commander".

The "Big Red" who had regained his freedom slammed on the brakes, and raised his two front hooves in the air.

Gu Xu couldn't sit still for a moment and almost slipped off the horse.

Fortunately, Zhao Yan behind him reached out to support him.

"Master, this is your real level of riding skills, right?" She covered her face with one hand and chuckled jokingly.

…………

Zhao Yan tied Dahong to a tree, then led Gu Xu into the barracks on foot.

The trip of the two was silent.

With the help of karma, they disguised themselves as two ordinary soldiers.

Even if they have extraordinary identities and stand out from the crowd, people around them won't even give them a second glance, they are all busy with their own affairs.

There was even a drunken soldier who came up to them and played a dirty joke on them.

Dayan barracks orders prohibit drinking alcohol.

This person must have sneaked out to indulge.

Zhao Yan frowned, and secretly kept this person's appearance in her mind, thinking: You won't be here to report tomorrow.
