His Rui

Chapter 604 How Does Gu Li Know Mi Luan(1)

(Twelve years ago)

In the dense forests, Gu Li was walking ahead of almost fifty shadow guards with his master.

"Master, I think we should stop here."

Gu Li said suddenly when he looked towards the sky. The sun was about to set down and soon it will be night. If they didn\'t make arrangements to stay for the night, then they would face difficulty in doing so because of the darkness of the night.

Gu Li\'s master who had a long white beard nodded his head as he looked towards the sky.

Even his eyebrows were white and wrinkles could be seen around his eyes as he said

"We shall stop here then."

His hand stroked his white beard as he said this and his other hand was behind his back.

The other shadow guards immediately separated from each other to gather the things they would need for the night.

Gu Li first prepared a nice spot for his master to sit. He sat there with his master pressing his legs to relieve him from the exhaustion of the day.

"It will rain tomorrow."

Gu Li raised his head when he heard his master\'s words and saw him looking toward the sky. He also followed his gaze only to see that the sky was clear.

He couldn\'t see any reason behind his master\'s words but he never said anything. Gu Li knew very well that if his master was saying that it will rain, then it will rain.

So he silently lowered his head and continued to do his work.

However, a few moments later, Gu Li got alert suddenly when he heard the sound of leaves moving from far away.

The wind was not fast so he couldn\'t take it as the reason for the leave to blow.

Gu Li raised his head and saw that his master was also looking in the direction of the sound. He stood up from the ground as he put his master\'s foot on the ground that he had covered with leaves carefully.

"Master, I will see what the matter is. There must be some animal. I will go and kill it."

The old master looked at Gu Li silently and then nodded his head.

Gu Li left from there after that.

As the old master looked at Gu Li\'s back, he smiled suddenly and then closed his eyes with a smile on his lips.

Using qingqong, he jumped and sat on a tree with a longer height to see everything clearly.

However, a few moments passed, he didn\'t hear any movement. Gu Li frowned deeply.

Just when he was about to get down from the tree, he heard another movement and turned around to look towards the sound.

There he saw a small figure running swiftly. His eyes then went behind the figure to look at what exactly he was running from.

Gu Li had thought that it would be some kind of animal. However, he was proved wrong when he saw that it was a man with a dagger in his hands.

There was again a frown on Gu Li\'s forehead and this time it was deeper than before. He looked towards the small figure again.

It looked as if the running figure was that of a child. His eyes flickered with coldness and he jumped down from the tree immediately to block the way of the running man who had a dagger in his hands.

The man stopped amidst his steps abruptly. First, he was startled because he had not expected someone to appear in such a dense forest. That was the only reason he had chosen this place to reveal the true purpose he had been hiding for a long time.

His aim was to kill the figure he had been running after.

He looked at Gu Li with a deep frown on his forehead. Thinking that, Gu Li was trying to become a hero, he said threateningly

"Leave from here."

Impatience was clear in his voice when he said this.

Gu Li chuckled coldly as he looked at the man. Without any emotion on his face, he said coldly

"That is something I should say to you if you wish your best."

He didn\'t wish to kill someone he was not given the job to kill.

However, the man didn\'t seem to know what was good or what was bad for him. Perhaps he was too anxious to catch the running figure, he no longer bothered to argue with Gu Li and instead lunged at him with the dagger in his hand.

But Gu Li was faster than him.

Even before the dagger could touch his body, he caught the man\'s arm with his hand and twisted it sharply making the man groan loudly.

After that, Gu Li\'s other hand caught the man\'s other hand and he easily took the knife from the man\'s hand.

The same knife that the man wanted to use to kill Gu Li cut his own neck stopping his breath slowly and he could only watch it.

A few moments later, he collapsed down on the floor. His eyes were wide and blood was seeping out from his throat.

Gu Li\'s cold eyes looked at his unmoving figure emotionlessly and he looked at the bloodied dagger with disgust.

It was not that he felt disgusted with the blood. Instead, he thought the quality of the dagger was not nice at all.

He threw the dagger at the ground with the same disgust in his eyes.

After that, he looked around again before walking away from there.

A few moments after, Gu Li had left from there, a figure suddenly appeared there. It was the same figure that had been running to save himself.

Slowly, he walked towards the unconscious man and stopped near him.

Then he bent down to pick the dagger from the ground that Gu Li had just thrown away. His hand trembled slightly as he picked the dagger from the ground.

However, his hand held the dagger tightly and he straightened his waist swiftly pointing the dagger at the man in front of him when he suddenly heard a voice.

"So you want this dagger?"
