The Best Actor's Courtship: Miss Scriptwriter, Please Love Me! Chapter 245 The Password Lock That Could Not Be Unlocked

Gong Yu looked around at the situation in the courtyard. Dong Fangying and the rest were already fighting with the other party. The others were heavily armed, but he still saw a clue in the swordsmans.h.i.+p displayed by one of them.

He had fought with that person a few years ago. At that time, he already felt that his swordsmans.h.i.+p was very unique. Thus, it merely left a clearer impression on him. When he observed the other people, he also felt that their moves were slightly familiar and he was quickly able to judge who they were.

However, that discovery made him very upset. Even after so many years had pa.s.sed, everything was still the same.

He turned back to look again. When he saw that Murong Yunxi was still sleeping quietly on the bed, he then opened the door that was already ajar and went out sideways quickly.

He rushed into the courtyard and joined in the battle. Brandis.h.i.+ng his sharp sword, he helped Dong Fangying to lead two of his besiegers away.

Gong Yu had already entered a combat mode. In an instant, all the senses in his body were heightened to their optimal state and the cells in his body also began to boil. It had been a long time since he fought like that. In that world, although there were similar scenarios, they were staged scenarios during filming and they were not satisfying.

For the first time in a few years, he was able to fight hard to his heart's content and he became even wilder. He was already very formidable but in that way, he became even more terrifying. The two people who were fighting against him were both overwhelmed and completely lacked the power to ward off his blows.

He waved his sword and stabbed towards the other party. One moment, the arm was stabbed once by the sword and in the next, the waist was gashed once. The two people totally felt that Gong Yu was toying with them. Each move of his sword was not aimed straight at their vitals and yet they also lacked the ability to dodge every single move. They wanted to free themselves, but Gong Yu completely did not give them a chance.

When Gong Yu seemed to have had his fun with the both of them, he then struck with one swift move, slicing their throats directly and killing them instantly. At the moment when Gong Yu finished off the two people, the six men, including Dong Fangying, had also finished off their opponents. In an instant, peace was restored. All the attackers had lost their lives.

Dong Fangying said in a deep voice, "Master, these people were probably the Prince's men."

Gong Yu nodded and replied, "You share the same view with me! He already obtained news! After so many years, he actually still did not change."

Dong Fangying took one look at Gong Yu and continued, "These few years, since you left, the Emperor flew into a rage once with the Prince and Duke Qi. His att.i.tude towards them has also changed subsequently. While he did not remove his position as the Crown Prince, he increasingly gave the prince the cold shoulder. The Prince was very dissatisfied with this and he even expressed to many people that it was all caused by you. Since he knew that you have returned, his heart probably still holds a grudge and he wants to remove the potential danger!"

After Gong Yu returned, he did not ask about things that happened during these few years. Dong Fangying and the others, too, behaved appropriately and did not take the initiative to bring up the subject. Coinciding with the attack from the Prince, he told these to Gong Yu.

"Hah. Such a joke! He wants to remove the potential danger in his heart? That was probably still a bit of wishful thinking!"

"Master, the current Prince is still not to be underestimated. In recent years, he also ama.s.sed a large number of court officials. Because of your disappearance, many people have regrouped and most of them are on the side of the Prince."

"I have no time to get involved in their compet.i.tion. Now, I just want to find Master quickly and cure Xiao Xi's eyes."

"Master, this might be what you think, but they do not think so. Thus you still need to be more careful, Master."

"Alright. This place had been exposed. We can't stay here anymore. If not, we won't have a peaceful day. Tomorrow morning, I will bring Xiao Xi to where my master is. As it is situated deep inside the mountains, it is still quite remote. Furthermore, few people can solve Master's formation. I will take Xiao Xi there."

"Master, please bring Dong Fangying along." / "Master, please bring Xi Fangchi along." / "Master, please bring Nan Fangjing along." / "Master, please bring Bei Fangye along." / "Master, please bring Xing Ye along. / "Master, please bring Lan Yun along."

At that moment, the six people actually simultaneously pleaded with Gongyu in unison. With their tacit understanding, there was not a single word of difference in their spoken words and even their firm tone achieved the same goal with different means. That produced a slight surprise in Gong Yu; he could not even state a reason to refuse them.

Gong Yu nodded and said casually, "Alright. It's getting late. Pack up the things here quickly and go to sleep. We will leave tomorrow morning."

One had to say that Gong Yu's decision was right. The next day, shortly after they left, the second wave of people came but could only leave empty-handed. That made Duanmu Gongcheng unusually furious.

Duanmu Gongqi, who was constantly paying attention to the dynamics of the matter, had also smashed a cup and cursed Duanmu Gongyu's craftiness, as well as Duanmu Gongcheng's incompetence.

Gong Yu and his party moved to Kuang Youzhi's small courtyard. Kuang Youzhi had built his own courtyard within a valley. In that valley, he had set up a very complicated formation that would make it impossible for those who could not break it to enter inside. They would only go around in circles continuously in the same place.

Gong Yu naturally knew how to enter and he brought everyone inside. To avoid leaking the news once again and provoking Duanmu Gongcheng's men, he did not even inform Murong Che. He simply left a verbal message to inform them that he only left temporarily, and to tell them not to worry, even if there was news of Master as he would contact them regularly to seek out information about him.

Thus, it was not just Duanmu Gongcheng's men who had left empty-handed but also Murong Che's party. They initially thought that they would have to visit Gong Yu more often, since they went through great lengths to find him and that perhaps he would be touched and eventually decide not to leave. However, Gong Yu did not give them that opportunity at all and once again disappeared without a trace. That made them break into a round of las.h.i.+ng at Gong Yu. Meanwhile, far away in the valley, Gong Yu also sneezed continuously.

That alerted Murong Yunxi, so much that she asked if he had caught a cold.

Gong Yu and everyone else stayed in the valley. They almost entered a state of living in isolation. With nothing much to do, Murong Yunxi recalled how Fourth had taught her martial arts back in her own world, and she could not help but remember that it had been a long time since she practised martial arts. Although her eyes were unable to see at the moment, she felt that there was an even greater need for her to have the ability to protect herself. Otherwise, she would truly become a burden to Gong Yu and Murong Ye.

Once she figured that out, she seemed to have found some motivation and goals to pursue. Murong Yunxi was actually no longer so silent, to the point where it made one's heart ache.

She found Gong Yu and smiled sweetly at him. "Gong Yu, I would like to ask a favor of you!"

Gong Yu rubbed the top of her head lightly. "Silly girl. You could be direct with me about anything. Is it still necessary to ask for favours between you and me?"

Upon hearing this, Murong Yunxi smiled once more, even more brilliantly. "It's a promise, right?"

"Silly girl, you have yet to say what it is."

"I want to continue practicing martial arts. It is boring to stay like this. I need to find something to do."

Murong Yunxi cuddled in Gong Yu's arms and rubbed her small head against his chest coquettishly. It was still fine when she did not rub her head. Upon doing so, it actually ignited a blazing fire in Gong Yu's body.

When Gong Yu was about to lower his head to kiss that little lady, as she did not obtain his reply, she actually pushed him away and questioned him loudly, "So will you promise me or not?"

The abrupt change in the att.i.tude of the little lady swept away the initial good mood in an instant. Gong Yu pulled Murong Yunxi's shoulder into his arms and planted a kiss on her forehead. "I promise. Of course I'll promise you. I'll agree to all of your requests!"

After that, just when Gong Yu wanted to continue to kiss her, she actually jumped up in joy as if she were completely disregarding Gong Yu's needs!

Disregard? It was indeed a disregard since she could not see at the time!

Gong Yu was completely unable take advantage of that little lady. Thus, he simply restrained his own little thoughts.

With a face of excitement, Murong Yunxi faced Gong Yu and asked, "Hubby, what is the first thing that you intend to teach me?"

Gong Yu thought it through briefly and suddenly said, "I recall that Master still had a 'Blind Spirit Sword' book about swordsmans.h.i.+p here. I feel that you could give it a try. It is very suitable for you to learn now."

When Murong Yunxi heard this, it didn't seem bad. Furthermore, as Gong Yu was the person whom she trusted the most, naturally, Gong Yu's recommendation would not be bad.

After he finished speaking, Gong Yu went to Master's study. He remembered that when he saw the book about swordsmans.h.i.+p in the study, he also asked Master what swordplay it was. The name was so strange. Could it be a swordplay for the blind? But since they were blind, what was the use of practising swordplay!? However, Master told him not to underestimate that swordplay as it was full of essence within. If one could learn from that swordplay book, one would not be any easier to deal with than a person who could see.

At that time, because he was still young, he did not take that seriously. Now that he thought about it, Master's words were never simple. Thus, that swordplay book must truly be formidable. If Murong Yunxi could truly learn it, no matter whether her eyes could be cured or not, she would still lead an easier life compared to her present situation, and she would also be able to master a skill to protect herself.

He quickly stepped into the study. Kuang Youzhi's study could totally be called a scaled library. There were countless of books with the contents covering martial arts practice, medicine or ancient literature. It could be said to be a real mini treasure trove.

He had always thought that his master was very powerful and also very mysterious. However, after his recent return, he finally seemed to know why Master could be so powerful.

Gong Yu searched for a long time in the study. When almost half a day's worth of time had pa.s.sed, he finally found the 'Blind Spirit Sword' book at an inconspicuous corner on a shelf. He pulled out the book with a smile. The book was quite old and the writing on it was not so clear anymore.

However, it was not the book that placed Gong Yu in a difficult position. Rather, it was because that book was kept in a box and the box had also been locked. Its lock was different from normal locks. It was actually very similar to the modern pa.s.sword lock. When he saw the book back then, he only saw the t.i.tle on the book spine and did not take it out to see. Hence, he did not know that it actually had a lock.

Luckily, he had lived in Murong Yunxi's world and knew that it was a type of pa.s.sword lock. Otherwise, he probably would not know that the lock required a pa.s.sword to open!

He tried to open the book with Master's birthday and all the numbers that were related to Master. However, he tried for one full hour and still failed eventually.

He faced the pa.s.sword lock with no solution at all. He wracked his brains but he still could not wrap his head around it. Would he have to give up like this?
