Chapter 476 The Treasure

Fatty’s team mixed in. There were around forty people in this convoy heading towards Bei Zhou City, but half of them were wounded.

Fatty and his buddies were flying behind the caravan. Most of them were resting with their eyes closed while breathing, healing the wounds on their bodies.

After accepting Fatty and his companions, Huairou Muyu did not pay any more attention to them. She just let the carriage move forward without saying a word to him. As she was inside the carriage, the fatty who was following her could not find an opportunity to speak.

“Young master Su!”

Just as Su Yun was resting on the dark horse with his eyes closed, Xiao Yin suddenly floated over and shouted into Su Yun’s ear.

Su Yun opened his long and narrow eyes and said, “What’s the matter?”

“Young master Su, the lady asked you to get on the carriage.” Xiao Yin smiled.

“Huh?” Su Yun was stunned. He glanced at Ye Moxian and then at Fatty Gu Gangzhen before whispering, “Does your lady think it is okay?”

“The lady never cares about gossip.” Xiao Yin smiled, “Furthermore, she thinks that you are a good and honest person. She believes that you are a gentleman.”

Su Yun: “…”

Since even Huairou Muyu weren’t afraid, why would Su Yun care? He immediately got off the horse and stood beside the carriage. Under the shocked expressions of Ye Moxian and Gu Gangzhen, he got into the carriage.

The interior of the car was still very spacious and decorated with exquisite decorations. However, this time, Huairou Muyu were neatly dressed as she sat in front of the tea table, quietly waiting for Su Yun to arrive. After Su Yun entered, Huairou Muyu picked up the teapot and poured him a cup of tea.

“Su Yun, come sit here. It’s a long journey, let’s chat for a while.” Huairou Muyu said softly.

“I thought you could live with loneliness.” Su Yun teased.

Huairou Muyu frowned, but didn’t say anything.

Su Yun picked up a teacup. He did not know how to taste tea and directly drank it. In his opinion, the things that Huairou Muyu had made him eat were good things, at least they were good for cultivation.

Huairou Muyu looked away and pretended not to see it. Then she said, “Su Yun, what do you think?”

Su Yun was stunned, “Think what?”

“Gu Gangzhen.”

“That fatty? What’s wrong?”

“I think there’s something fishy.” Huairou Muyu placed down the teacup and said calmly, "There’s no reason for this. Why did I bump into him on the way? Moreover, his men had been injured by attack. Wasn’t this too much of a coincidence? I hope it’s just a coincidence. If it’s not a coincidence, then it’s going to be bad. "

"Oh? You suspect that Gu Gangzhen is not a member of the Gu family, but an assassin who impersonates the Gu family and wants to harm you? " Su Yun laughed.

“This is not impossible!” Huairou Muyu nodded seriously, “What’s more, he has more people than me.”

“But they’re all injured. Have you checked whether the injuries were real?”

“I asked my guards to secretly pay attention to this. Their injuries are indeed real.”

“In that case, what are you worried about? I see that you didn’t even treat them, let them be like this. What can a group of injured people do even if they have more people than you? What’s more, your people are stronger than all of them.” Su Yun said.

Huairou Muyu were silent.

“But then again, Muyu, why didn’t you tell your elder brother about this? Instead, you told me. In the end, I’m still an outsider from your Huairou Family. Do you really trust me that much?” Su Yun asked curiously.

But Huairou Muyu didn’t even think about it and said, “You’ve saved me time and again. Without you, how could I still be here? If I didn’t believe you, who would I believe?”

Hearing that, Su Yun felt embarrassed.

He laughed dryly a few times, and seeing that Huairou Muyu were still thinking with her head lowered, she frowned. After thinking for a while, she smiled and said, “Muyu, since you’re so worried, why don’t we interrogate that Gu Gangzhen?”

Huairou Muyu hurriedly raised her head and asked, “Interrogate? How?”

“Call him in.”

Su Yun said.

“Call him in?” Huairou Muyu pondered for a moment before extending her jade-like finger and pointing it in the air. Suddenly, rays of white light burst from her finger, and she said softly, “Xiao Yin, help me ask young master Gu Gangzhen into the carriage.”

“Yes, Miss.” Xiao Yin’s voice entered the carriage, and a moment later, they could hear the conversation between Xiao Yin and Gu Gangzhen.

This carriage was also a magical treasure. Within the carriage, one could hear sounds for one hundred miles around at any time. However, the people outside would definitely not be able to hear any sounds from the person inside.

Hearing Huairou Muyu’s invitation, Fatty Gu Gangzhen naturally had a face of pleasant surprise. However, when he thought of Su Yun burrowing in earlier, his fat face became unhappy again. However, due to Huairou Muyu’s identity, he obediently got on the carriage.

He looked around and admired the interior of the carriage. After a while, his eyes finally landed on Huairou Muyu , who was still drinking tea in the middle of the carriage. When his eyeballs landed on Huairou Muyu’s body, it was as if they were stuck on her, unable to move at all.

Very quickly, Gu Gangzhen discovered that something was wrong. He did his best to move his eyes away and looked left and right, discover that Su Yun had disappeared. Immediately, he asked with a suspicious expression, “Miss Huairou, I clearly saw young master Su get on this carriage, what about the others?”

“What are you looking for him for?” Huairou Muyu asked with a voice that was neither light nor heavy.

“No, no, no, I have nothing to do with him. I have never met him before. Why would I be looking for him?” Gu Gangzhen quickly waved his hand.

“That’s good.”

Huairou Muyu nodded.

Upon seeing this, Gu Gangzhen smiled and asked, “I wonder why lady has called me in.”

However, her pretty face suddenly turned serious as she said in a low voice, “Young master Gu, although you are traveling with me to Bei Zhou City, I have never met you. And everything is just your side of the story. To be honest, I still don’t trust you. After all, anyone can get the clothing and flags of the Gu family, so I asked you to come in. I want to give you a chance to prove yourself. If you can prove your identity here, then I will treat your people and try to help you reach Yang Dao City. If you can’t prove your identity, I’m afraid we will have to part ways.”

Gu Gangzhen was stunned for a moment after he heared this. After a long while, he recovered and said, “So Miss Huairou has doubts for me. Then, Miss Huairou, you can believe that I am indeed from the Gu family.”

At this point, Gu Gangzhen seemed to have thought of something and quickly took out a purple token from the space bag at his waist and placed it on the table.

“If miss doesn’t believe me, please take a look. This is the token of the Gu family. This is sufficient proof of my identity, right?”

Gu Gangzhen said.

Huairou Muyu took a glance at it, it was indeed a token of the Gu family. Normally, it was impossible for others to get their hands on this. If Gu Gangzhen was suspicious, then the entire Gu family was. However, this was too impossible.

However, when she thought of the person in the dark, she endured it. She withdrew her gaze from the token and said in a low voice, “Forget about the token, this is not enough to prove anything. If you want to prove that everything you’ve said is true, it’s actually very simple. You only need to show me another item.”

Gu Gangzhen was startled. “What is it?”

“The treasure you said you wanted to send to Yang Dao City.” Huairou Muyu said lightly.

Hearing those words, Gu Gangzhen was completely stunned. He looked at Huairou Muyu with a face full of shock, then forced a smile and said, “Lady Huairou, are you joking? This is a secret treasure of our Gu family. This trip to Yang Dao City is a secret matter. Other than the master who lives in Yang Dao City, no one else is allowed to touch it. Therefore …”

“I’m just taking a look. I’m not saying that I want to take your treasure.” Huairou Muyu’s brows turned cold as she said solemnly, “Unless you don’t have it. If you do, how could you not show it to me? Quick, take it out. I will give you the time of drinking a cup of tea. I hope you can think it through. If you do, no one will know about it even if you showed me. What are you worried about?”

Gu Gangzhen thought for a moment, and his fat face was full of confusion.

Huairou Muyu continued to drink her tea. She didn’t seem to be in a hurry, but Gu Gangzhen didn’t notice that Huairou Muyu was staring at him from the corner of her eyes.

Gu Gangzhen lowered his head with a face full of hesitation. He walked to the east and then to the west, kept pacing back and forth, as if he was unsure of what to do.

Finally, he figured it out.

Gu Gangzhen seriously nod his head and said, “Since Miss Huairou truly wants to see that, alright. I, Gu Gangzhen, am going all out. I will take out this treasure and let Miss see its glory. Although it is the first time that Miss has met me, I can still do this as a show of sincerity.”

With that, Gu Gangzhen stretched out his hand and touched the space bag beside him.

A trace of surprise flashed across Huairou Muyu’s eyes. She didn’t think that Gu Gangzhen would actually make a decision.

However, she quickly recovered and put down her teacup. A pair of crystal-like eyes stared at the shaking hand.

A moment later, he took out an iron box that was about the size of two palms.

On the surface of the box, there were evil ghost patterns, making it look extremely malevolent. On both sides of the box, there were relief sculptures of Flood Dragons, specks of dark and cold energy overflowing from the box.

Gu Gangzhen held the box with both hands and walked towards the tea table, one step at a time.

“Miss Huairou, please take a look.”

Gu Gangzhen said with a face full of smiles.

“Okay!”

Huairou Muyu were secretly frowning. She nodded slightly and stared at the box for a moment before extending her hand, preparing to open it.

When the hidden Su Yun saw this, he could no longer hold himself back. He directly opened his mouth and shouted in a low voice, “Wait!”

Gu Gangzhen was stunned for a moment. He looked towards the source of the voice and saw Su Yun walking out from the dark.

It turned out that he had been using the formation of the carriage to hide.

“Young master Su?” Gu Gangzhen was stunned.

He saw Su Yun stepped forward and take the box directly, then he shouted to Gu Gangzhen, “Let me take a look at this thing first!”

After saying that, he opened it.
