When he first arrived in the capital, Du Hangwu just wanted a job to make a living, but after staying in the capital for a long time and encountering more things, his mentality changed. In the prosperous capital, there is no one who does not want to climb up.
But the capital city is full of high-ranking officials. People like them at the bottom of society, with no background and no money, cannot get credit for their achievements even if they have made some. If they want to climb up, they can only look for opportunities for promotion in hard work.
Previously, there was a colleague who was escorting prisoners. After he came back from the trip, he was promoted to a higher position, which was a world apart from theirs.
It was for this reason that Du Hangwu volunteered to escort the prisoner. He believed that he was quite skilled in martial arts and could protect himself during the escort, so he gambled on his good future.
But now he knew that the two robberies and murders on the way were the work of the emperor's favorite leader in the palace, and the person behind it could only be the emperor. How could he bear this!
Not to mention a good future, even if he returned to Beijing alive this time, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to save his life.
After all, it was the emperor who wanted to kill people. Not only would the prisoners die, but even the escorting officials would die.
Unless he kills the person the emperor wants to kill first, he can use this to please the emperor, and once he returns to the capital, he may be able to rise rapidly.
But the emperor wanted to kill not only Princess Shunyu, but also the Lu family. For the Lu family god, killing dozens of people was as easy as crushing an ant. He was going against them because he was tired of living.
To please the emperor and to go against the Lu family is to die.
If he tried to please the Lu family, he would offend the emperor and would die if he returned to the capital.
Du Hangwu couldn't sleep. The pain from his wound made him frown because both of his ways to survive were blocked.
Gu Xingzhao kept staring at Du Hangwu. The ancients said, "If the king wants his subjects to die, they must die." Wouldn't this little Du be so pedantic?
If Du Hangwu wanted to go against the Lu family, then he must not be allowed to stay. After all, it is easy to block an open spear, but it is difficult to guard against an arrow from the dark.
But the remaining officials only obey Du Hangwu. Without Du Hangwu, the remaining officials are bound to cause civil strife. After all, this is not a game of Candy Crush. He cannot get rid of all the officials. Otherwise, before they reach the place of exile, the Lu family will be charged with rebellion, and the dog emperor can legitimately send troops to quell the rebellion and get rid of the Lu family.
What's more, not all prisoners in the team are as kind as the Lu family. Most of them are extremely vicious. Without the supervision of the officials, they will flee everywhere and harm only innocent people.
Thinking of this, she bought another bottle of painkillers from the system mall, wrote the method of taking and the effect on a sticky note, and sent it to Du Hangwu.
A bottle of painkillers costs ten thousand yuan, all of which is wasted money. It's gone in one gulp. Gu Xingzhao just hopes that he is a man who knows how to deal with things.
At this time, Du Hangwu was still worrying about the future. Suddenly, there was something cold in his hand. He was startled and threw it away immediately!
What is that?
The fat bottle rolled on the ground with a "gulp" sound until it was blocked by a stone and stopped.
Gu Xingzhao's face turned black. Something worth ten thousand dollars was just thrown away like that. Fortunately, this guy's surname was not Lu, otherwise he would have vomited blood and died.
Du Hangwu's heart was beating wildly. He realized belatedly that the only person who could stuff something into his hands silently could be the god from the Lu family!
Realizing this, his face turned pale. He actually threw away the things that God had given him!?
He stood up suddenly and ran in the direction where the bottle had just fallen, trying to pick up the things he had just thrown away. His steps were all messed up.
Fortunately, the bottle did not roll far and was blocked by a stone. He picked up the thing given by the god with trembling fingers and found that it was a bottle. He suddenly felt confused and carefully checked the bottle with his heart in his throat.
Fortunately, the bottle was intact. Du Hangwu breathed a sigh of relief. With the help of moonlight, he realized that this was not an ordinary bottle!
The entire bottle was transparent like water. Even though he had never seen anything made of this material, he could guess that it did not belong to an ordinary person, not even the powerful figures in the capital.
Du Hangwu flipped through the note he had just picked up and was stunned. It was not a word, but a picture!
A little man was drawn on the note with simple lines. The little man was holding a bottle and pouring the contents of the bottle into his mouth and drinking it.
He vaguely guessed that this should be medicine for healing injuries.
This god not only saved him, but also sent him medicine. However, he was just considering whether to kill the Lu family in order to please the emperor in Beijing.
He felt bad.
Moreover, the note accompanying the medicine was a drawing.
Du Hangwu noticed the god's attentiveness and intentions, and his face turned red with embarrassment because he was illiterate.
Fearing that the Lu family god would be dissatisfied, he immediately unscrewed the bottle and drank the medicine in one gulp.
Du Hangwu drank it so fast that he almost choked. The warm liquid medicine poured into his throat and spread from deep inside his body. He looked at the wound on his body in disbelief. The wound that was originally in great pain was now unusually calm, without any pain, and even stopped bleeding!
He looked at his body carefully, and couldn't believe that there was such a magical medicine in the world. Because of shock, his breathing was rapid and his heartbeat seemed to jump out of his chest.
This feeling is so wonderful!
Is there such medicine in Beijing?
Is there such medicine in the palace?
Does the emperor have this medicine?
No! Absolutely not!
Du Hangwu tightly grasped the bottle and took a deep breath. His body was trembling slightly, but his eyes were bright and there was no trace of entanglement in his heart.
Compared to the supreme gods, what is a mortal emperor? !
The Lu family has such an incredible god helping them, how could they be in dire straits in the future? If I can follow the Lu family, even if I don't go back to the capital, I will definitely be able to benefit from it in the future!
At this moment, Du Hangwu realized that he had not thought of going against the Lu family.
Gu Xingzhao was very satisfied with Du Hangwu's change in mentality. She smiled slightly: Very good, I like people who know the times.
The exile team encountered another robbery and massacre, and dozens of prisoners died, leaving less than a hundred people.
The prisoners who were previously dissatisfied with the Lu family no longer dared to be disrespectful to the gods because they were now protected by the gods of the Lu family. After experiencing the life and death of last night, those officials dared not complain about the Lu family anymore.
The Lu family immediately gained the upper hand in the exile team.
Because the Liu family was close to the Lu family, they also received care from the officials.
Lu Qing secretly watched all of this and knew that this was all the credit of his ancestors. When the family's situation improved in the future, he would definitely repair the ancestral hall for his ancestors and order the whole family to offer sacrifices day and night to repay their kindness.
The next day, Gu Xingzhao woke up and found that after one night, the offering value had increased by more than one hundred, and he was able to repair the cultural relics again.
However, I just sold a batch and the money is enough for the moment. After thinking about it, I decided to keep the offering value in case there is some other emergency someday.
Just when she sent Lin Ting back for lunch, there was a loud banging noise from the door of the supermarket downstairs!
"Bang, bang, bang!"
"Bang!"
Along with the violent banging on the door, there were shouts and curses:
"Gu Xingzhao! Get out here!"
