It Is Highly Likely that the Person Coming Here Has Bad Intentions

Zheng'er didn't care about losing a paper airplane during the day. But when he took a shower at night and took toys from the shelf beside the bed as usual, preparing to go to bed to play for a while before going to sleep, he found that something was missing.

"Dad, Mom, there's a thief in our house!" Zheng'er ran to the next door quickly, his face serious, "The Little Fei No. 3 that Uncle Meiren gave me is lost!"

It's a model airplane. Gu Ling gave Zheng'er three different airplane models, which are his favorite toys. They can be disassembled and reassembled. They are called Little Fei No. 1, Little Fei No. 2, and Little Fei No. 3. No. 3 is the smallest one, delicate and cute.

Lu Yu and Wan Hui went to Zheng'er's room and saw that there was indeed an empty space on the shelf. This shelf was also specially customized, and almost all the toys on it were given by Gu Ling.

Wan Hui frowned, "I didn't go out today. If there really was a thief, he must have good skills." Although Zheng'er's biological father Li San is dead and the Li family is gone, for safety reasons, the Wan Mansion in the capital has several warriors hired at a high price to guard the house.

"What kind of thief, just stealing a small thing?" Lu Yu felt that something was a bit strange.

Zheng'er frowned, "I was in the restaurant with Mu Taigong during the day, and I lost a paper-folded Xiaofei! I have to tell Uncle Meiren!"

Lu Yu nodded, "Yes, I have to tell him. Tomorrow."

The next day, Zheng'er went to Su's house again and found Gu Ling to tell him that his Xiaofei No. 3 was stolen from his home.

"Are you sure it was lost yesterday?" Gu Ling's eyes narrowed slightly.

Zheng'er nodded, "Yes, I saw it the night before yesterday and it was still there." He also talked about losing a paper airplane yesterday.

A paper airplane landed on a busy street. It might be picked up by someone or stepped on by someone and turned into waste paper. But it was definitely not normal for Zheng'er's things to be lost.

The Wan family had many valuable things, but they stole a wooden model... Gu Ling thought of the old man in gray he had seen a few days ago. If it was really related to the time traveler, he would be interested in objects with the mark of Su Liang's previous life, right? Breaking into the Su Mansion is too risky. Although the Wan family is also guarded, it is not that difficult for masters.

"Uncle Beauty, who could have stolen my Xiaofei?" Zheng'er scratched his head and felt very strange.

Gu Ling answered with one word, "Ghost."

Zheng'er's eyes widened, "Aunt said there are no ghosts in the world!"

"For example. A thief like a ghost." Gu Ling rubbed Zheng'er's little head, "It's lost if it's lost."

"Then can I have another one?" Zheng'er knew that there were many toys in Gu Ling's study.

"You go and pick one." Gu Ling nodded.

Zheng'er ran into the study, looked around, and pointed to an exquisite locomotive model, "Uncle Beauty, can I have this?" Although he didn't understand what it was, he just thought it was cute.

Gu Ling said yes, took it down and gave it to Zheng'er.

"What's its name?" Zheng'er asked.

Gu Ling said casually, "Little Fire."

"Where is the fire?" Zheng'er was puzzled.

Gu Ling looked calm, "It can be used as firewood after burning."

Zheng'er hugged his new toy tightly and ran away, "Uncle Beauty, don't have the idea of ​​wasting things!"

When Zheng'er left Yuanming Pavilion with his new toy to find Lao Mu, Gu Ling found Su Liang reading a book in the pavilion by the lake and mentioned that Zheng'er's small plane had been stolen.

Su Liang also immediately noticed something was wrong, "Could it be that one of my fellow countrymen is secretly investigating and confirming my identity as a time traveler?"

Gu Ling shook his head slightly, "If you look at the small plane, I am the time traveler."

"Yes, yes, you are more likely." Su Liang said, "I don't know what the thief's purpose is, but it seems that he is still in the city. We have to find him first."

"I put a bait." Gu Ling was referring to the locomotive model that he had just given to Zheng'er. If someone is staring at Zheng'er and is interested in the plane, they should also stare at the train.

"It may not be useful." Su Liang said. What if the other party has already obtained the information they want to know through the small plane and no longer stares at Zheng'er? But it doesn't hurt to try.

Gu Ling asked Lao Mu to take Zheng'er out shopping, and Zheng'er kept holding the locomotive and refused to let go. This is exactly what Gu Ling's purpose is, to show it to the people in the dark.

It's not that he regrets making such a thing and being seen by others. Because before Gu Ling recovered, someone had already stared at Su Liang, who was once weak and incompetent and returned from the capital with amazing talent. If the two models made the people behind the scenes mistake Gu Ling for a time traveler, that was exactly what Gu Ling hoped for. No matter what the other party intended, if they could confuse them, they could gain more initiative.

…

That night, Zheng'er put the locomotive model on the original position of Xiaofei No. 3 before going to bed, and called out, "Uncle Beauty?"

Gu Ling appeared behind Zheng'er, picked him up and put him on the bed, then took out a medicine bottle, unplugged it, and carefully sprinkled the powdered medicine on the locomotive model.

Zheng'er lay on the bed, watching curiously, "Can the thief be caught like this?"

Gu Ling nodded, "Try it. Go to sleep."

Zheng'er turned over and lay down, covering himself with the quilt, "Uncle Beauty, will you sleep with me? Let's put down the bed curtain and hide together!"

Gu Ling shook his head, "I'm here, you go to sleep first."

"Then thank you for your hard work, Uncle Beauty!" Zheng'er closed his eyes and went to sleep obediently.

About an hour later, the Wan Mansion was silent.

A dark shadow climbed over the garden wall and entered the Wan Mansion, heading straight for the main courtyard without a sound. Zheng'er was still young, and although he lived in a room of his own, Lu Yu and Wan Hui lived next door.

Gently prying open the window of Zheng'er's room, the shadow sneaked in, took out a luminous pearl, and with the warm light, walked into the inner room in a familiar way and stopped next to the shelf beside the bed.

Ye Mingzhu approached the locomotive model. After a moment, he reached out with one hand, picked up the locomotive, looked at it for a moment, nodded slightly, stuffed it into his arms, turned around and left along the original road.

When walking through the garden again, the black shadow suddenly swayed and scratched his hand, and several blood daozi appeared.

The black shadow paused, speeding up and trying to leave, but Gu Ling fell from the sky and blocked him.

The black shadow knew that he had been tricked, but Gu Ling was counting down to five, waiting for the thief to fall.

Unexpectedly, while the black shadow stuffed a pill into his mouth, he grabbed something from his arms and threw it towards Gu Ling!

Gu Ling smelled the faint smell of gunpowder in the air, her expression changed, and she immediately dodged away.

The sound of the explosion scared Zheng'er so much that he jumped up from the bed, got out of bed with his bare feet, and ran into the next room. He saw Lu Yu holding Wan Hui who looked uneasy, and they were all awakened.

"Is it thunder?" Zheng'er frowned and touched Wanhui's bulging belly, "Brother, don't be afraid. It's okay. Uncle Beauty will protect us."

About a quarter of an hour later, Gu Ling's voice came from outside the door, "Zheng'er?"

"Uncle Beauty!" Zheng'er's eyes lit up and he immediately ran over to open the door.

When Lu Yu and Wan Hui packed up and came out, they saw some dirt on Gu Ling's clothes and didn't know what happened.

"Did Uncle Beauty catch the thief?" Zheng'er asked.

Gu Ling shook his head, "No." The other party had an antidote, and even if it couldn't completely remove the poison, it was enough to escape. He chased him out and disappeared. Unexpectedly, the opponent's weapon was actually explosives.

Su Liang and Gu Liang studied this thing, but never thought of using it. There are fireworks in this world, and there are naturally some craftsmen who know how to make explosives, but they are very crude and their power is naturally much inferior to Su Liang's previous life.

But the explosives the man used tonight were quite powerful and could be carried with him. If Gu Ling hadn't dodged in time, he wouldn't have died.

"It's okay." Zheng'er grabbed Gu Ling's hand and shook it, "That bad guy who stole my treasure won't end well!"

"The loud noise just now was..." Lu Yu heard it like thunder at first, but then he thought it didn't sound like it. It seemed to be coming from the direction of the garden.

"Thieves are causing trouble." Gu Ling said.

Wan Hui's face tightened, "What exactly does he want to do?" If he couldn't catch Gu Ling's careful plan, he would be in trouble.

"The things he stole were all made by me. They were for me, not for you." Gu Ling explained.

Wan Hui breathed a sigh of relief and sighed, "Then you and Su Liang should be more careful."

Gu Ling nodded, "Go to sleep. We will find a way to deal with it."

…

When Gu Ling left Wanjia, he went to the garden to see the situation. A big hole was made in the ground and a tree fell down.

After returning to the Su Mansion, Gu Ling went to the study to wash up and change clothes before entering the bedroom, being careful not to wake Su Liang up. But as soon as he reached the bedside, Su Liang woke up.

"I can't sleep well without you." Su Liang sat up, "How is it? Have you caught anyone?"

Gu Ling shook his head, "He ran away."

Su Liang's expression condensed. Gu Ling didn't even leave anyone behind when he made a move? How high is your martial arts?

After hearing Gu Ling tell what happened, Su Liang's heart sank slightly, "Did he carry a grenade with him?"

Pay attention to the airplane and locomotive models. The weapon is a grenade. There is no doubt that it must be a time traveler.

"What did he want to do by stealing Zheng'er's toys? Why didn't he come to us directly?" Su Liang felt that things were a little weird and couldn't figure out what the suspected fellow countryman wanted.

Gu Ling shook his head, "Maybe that person was sent by the time traveler to investigate us."

Su Liang thoughtfully said, "This is possible. If you want to investigate, you need evidence. The toys you gave Zheng'er are evidence. Now I am beginning to suspect that the mysterious force related to Yue Mei is also related to the time traveler. Although it is still There is no evidence. But if the man used a grenade to blow you up tonight, wouldn't he be afraid that something might happen to you? "

Gu Ling thought for a while and said, "He should still be doubting whether the time traveler is you or me. The grenade is also a test to see if I recognize it and know how to avoid it. If I don't know what it is and catch it with my hands, it means I’m not the target he’s looking for, so I’ll die if I die.”

Su Liang's face darkened, "Damn it. It's probably the person who suddenly appeared to send me a note. Now that we are married, the people who are staring at me are starting to doubt who of the two of us is the time traveler, so they came to investigate. Also. I don’t know what the people behind the scenes want to do after finding out.”

"Go to sleep." Gu Ling shook his head, "That person took the trouble to investigate and won't get rid of us directly, otherwise there would be no need to investigate. Since he avoids us and doesn't want to run into us, he shouldn't be the one who makes the decision. Let's talk tomorrow."

…

The next day, Gu Ling took Su Liang to Wan's house to see the hole that had been blown up last night, and then Lu Yu ordered people to restore the garden to its original state.

On their way back home after Gu Ling and Su Liang left Wanjia, they happened to run into Xing Ji and Qi Jiang, who had been rushing back from Xuanbei City day and night.

Qi Jun, who was driving the carriage, saw the man coming on horseback from a distance and looked overjoyed, "Master, my father is back!"

Qi Jun stopped the carriage on the side of the road. Gu Ling opened the curtain and saw Xing Ji coming on horseback.

"Ajun! Xiaoliang, Xiaogu!" Xing Ji was very happy to see them.

"Father, don't dismount. You have to go to the palace to recover." Su Liang smiled, "Come to my house for dinner tomorrow."

Xing Ji nodded repeatedly, "Okay!" He did have a lot of things to do today. He went to the palace to see Duanmu Chen, and also wanted to see his daughter Xing Yuyan, and then hurried home.

Qi Jun went to talk to his father, and turned around to see Gu Ling sitting in the coachman's seat, picking up the riding whip, "Let's go back. You can accompany your father back to the Marquis Mansion."

Qi Jun knew Gu Ling and Su Liang's temperament and was not polite to them.

After Xing Ji and the Qi family's father and son left, Gu Ling drove back and took Su Liang home.

A pair of eyes stared at him in the darkness until the carriage disappeared.

In an alley in the city, the old man in gray took out the sheepskin book in his arms again and opened it. His bloody hand took out a charcoal and wrote on it, "Gu Ling has no aristocratic pretensions and drives the carriage himself." The line above reads " Gu Ling recognized the grenade and evaded it in time." "Gu Ling was withdrawn since he was a child and did not like to interact with others. He was extremely alienated from his relatives.

…

Xing Ji met Duanmu Chen first, and after reporting his work, he apologized to Duanmu Chen for the previous mistakes made by Miao and Xing Yuyan. Those were his wife and daughter. After all, it was his failure to take care of and teach them well.

Duanmu Chen didn't want to say anything more about that incident, so he took the initiative to ask Xing Ji to visit Xing Yuyan later. In comparison, Duanmu Chen was more concerned about Qiu Jing's performance after arriving at Xuanbei City.

Although news of what happened in Xuanbeicheng had been reported before, Situ Xie must now also know that he had been stabbed in the back by Qiu Jing. But the specific process is clearer to Xing Ji, who has experienced it.

Xing Ji then told Duanmu Chen in detail what happened outside Xuanbei City that day.

After hearing this, Duanmu Chen showed a look of satisfaction, "That's right. I think the King of Yue of Liang Kingdom will be very pleased when he learns that he has taught a good and sensible grandson."

These words are full of irony.

After Xing Ji thanked him, he left the imperial study and went to see Xing Yuyan.

When Xing Yuyan saw Xing Ji, she burst into tears.

After she finally calmed down, she opened her mouth to tell how wronged she was, saying that Duanmu Chen had neglected her, and now his heart was focused on Situ Yao, and even the new Concubine Yan was not happy with him.

Xing Ji knew his daughter's temperament, and she was pregnant, so he didn't dare to say harsh words. He only advised her to relax, take good care of the baby, and stop thinking wildly. The most important thing was to give birth to the baby safely first.

"Will dad no longer lead troops?" Xing Yuyan asked.

Xing Ji shook his head, "It depends on the changes in the situation and the emperor's arrangements. I can't say for sure now. But there is no need to go for the time being. It is rare for me to come back this time."

"Can daddy come visit me often?" Xing Yuyan asked with tears in her eyes.

Xing Ji said that it was not convenient for him to enter the palace often, and he would ask the emperor for permission to let Mrs. Xing spend more time with her.

…

After returning from Wanfu, Su Liang and Gu Ling made a decision. They also wanted to get some grenades. People who act in secret with unknown motives are treated as enemies by default. Since the opponent has such weapons, they must at least have similar ones, otherwise they will be very passive.

Some things can be used, but cannot be lived without. Its existence is a deterrent, and it will be there when it is needed.

Gu Ling wouldn't let Su Liang touch him. Su Liang had already taught Gu Ling everything he knew in this regard, but he hadn't put it into practice before. After all, it was still a bit dangerous.

The raw materials and tools needed were prepared that day, and Gu Ling planned to make some to try tomorrow.

Before going to bed, Su Liang was still thinking about his "fellow countrymen", "Master, the time traveler who is targeting us has never been exposed. Could it be that he is not interested in the power of this world and still wants to go back?"

Gu Ling thought for a while and said, "Maybe it was hidden very deep and we didn't find it."

"In short, it is now confirmed that in addition to Liang Kingdom and Yan Kingdom, there is a more mysterious and perhaps more powerful enemy targeting us." Su Liang sighed slightly and became more interested as he spoke, "Suppose the other party is really I’m quite interested in finding a way to travel back in time, provided the other party is a friend rather than an enemy.”

Seeing Gu Ling frowning, Su Liang said quickly, "Of course, I'm just assuming this possibility. I don't want to wear it back without being with the master."

"I think there's a high chance that the person who came here is evil." The image of the old man in gray throwing a grenade at him appeared in Gu Ling's mind. The person behind the scenes is very hidden, but he has made such a weapon and acts in a sneaky way, so be careful.

Su Liang agreed with Gu Ling's judgment, "Then I wish the great god that the first explosion will be successful tomorrow."
