"According to what you said, why did you come out of Screen City this time?" Mu Jingyu asked with interest.
"This...this..." Shi Jiang hesitated for a long time, and finally said cruelly: "Anyway, I have told you the Shi family's plans, and I will not hide the rest from you. My father is worried that our intentions will be revealed by Korean Yuan and his son noticed that in order to avoid being attacked by the Han family, they asked me to leave the city overnight to contact the other more powerful sects and aristocratic families in Xihan Yuanzhou to find out what they were talking about. If you don't want to follow the Han family and die, , let’s unite and deal with it together.”
"Oh? From what you say, are you sure that you can convince other sects? I just don't know. After you betrayed the Han family, are you planning to stay out of it, or are you planning to abandon the dark side and turn to the bright side and turn to the right path?"
"Of course I have returned to the right path." Shi Jiang said hurriedly: "At the beginning, my father and many other sects were only deceived by Han Wenyuan, so they surrendered to the Jiuli tribe and betrayed the right path. Now, we have Knowing the ambitions of the Jiuli tribe, of course I don’t want the creatures of Jiuzhou to be enslaved by them.”
Seeing Mu Jingyu's silence, Bi Yun thought she believed Shi Jiang's words. Just when she was about to remind him not to be gullible, she saw Mu Jingyu turn around, wave his hand towards where Yi Hong was hiding and said: "Senior Brother Yi Hong, you don't have to hide. Hiding. Come down and help me analyze it, Senior Brother Shijiang. What Senior Brother Shijiang said is somewhat credible."
Yi Hong didn't want to show his face, but due to Mu Jingyu's restraint, he had no choice but to jump out from the tree crown, move step by step in front of Shi Jiang, and take off the human skin mask on his face.
"Master Shi, we meet again."
"You! You! You're not dead!" Shi Jiang didn't believe it at first when he heard Yi Hong's name, but he cried out in surprise when he saw the real person.
Anyway, his identity was exposed, so Yi Hong relaxed his mind and admitted openly: "Han Yao completely ignored my life for his own safety. If I continue to be attached to him, I will die sooner or later. Fortunately, Junior Brother Mu read Because of my friendship with the same family, I was spared my life."
Shi Jiang said: "So, you are surrendering to Mu Jingyu? You are not afraid... you are not afraid..."
"Are you afraid that if Han Yao finds out, it will be detrimental to my parents?" Yi Hong frowned and said with a hint of threat: "As long as you don't tell Mr. Shi, who will know?"
Feeling the murderous look in Yi Hong's eyes, Shi Jiang quickly waved his hand and said: "Junior brother Yi Hong, don't worry, I won't tell anyone, I definitely won't tell anyone. Besides, my Shi family is now ready to betray the Han family and return to the Han family." On the right side, I am worried that you will leak it out, do you two think I will talk nonsense?"
"That's not necessarily true." Mu Jingyu said with a smile: "Junior brother, the reason why I asked Senior Brother Yihong to show up is to hear his analysis. Who knows whether what Senior Brother Shi said is true, or whether he is deceiving me? "
"Ah!" Shi Jiang exclaimed, suddenly feeling guilty. Yi Hong has been with Han Yao for many years. Although he is not a confidant like him and Zhao Zhengming, he knows a lot of things. So what he just said was soon revealed?
After all, what he just said was just nonsense to deceive Mu Jingyu in order to save his own life.
In order to prevent Yi Hong from saying anything, Shi Jiang kept hinting with his eyes and said at the same time: "Junior Brother Yi Hong, I, Shi Jiang, have led you for so many years. Don't ask for credit in front of Junior Brother Zai Mu without proof. In this case, just say that I am deceiving you. Therefore, I hope you will think carefully before speaking."
Shi Jiang's previous words seemed to be pleading, but the last sentence already contained a threat. How could Yi Hong not hear it? He snorted coldly and said: "Senior Brother Shi, don't worry, Yi Hong will remember all the care you have taken for me over the years. I promise that I won't wrongly accuse you at will if I say anything."
Shi Jiang's heart instantly sank to the bottom of the lake, and his body that had just stabilized began to tremble again.
Yi Hong didn't care whether Shi Jiang was afraid or not, and said slowly: "If I remember correctly, your Shi family and Zhao family have long formed an alliance with the Han family in Ice City, and they made a poisonous oath to advance and retreat together in attack and defense. Besides, , the righteous sects have long known that you are one, so even if they want to break it off now, can they do it?"
"Junior Brother Mu, don't listen to Yi Hong's nonsense! I, Shi Jiang, admit that I did feel sorry for him in the past, and I wanted to use your hand to get rid of me! But everything I just said is true, and I absolutely dare not deceive you! If you don’t believe it, you can follow me back to Screen City and let my father confirm it!”
"No need." Mu Jingyu shook his hand and said, "Compared to Senior Brother Yihong, I believe what he said more."
Shi Jiang said anxiously: "Don't you just want to use Yihong to inquire about the Han family and the Jiuli tribe? As long as you spare my life, I promise to tell you everything I know. It will definitely be more than what Yihong can tell you. There are so many!”
In order to save his life, Shi Jiang risked his life. Regardless of whether Mu Jingyu believed it or not, he made a promise first.
"Okay, let me ask you. Where is Han Yao now? What is the purpose of your return to Screen City this time?" Seeing Shi Jiang about to speak, Mu Jingyu followed up and said: "Don't tell me, do you want to It's okay to deceive others with this little trick of breaking away from the Jiuli tribe and the Han family. How can I, Mu Jingyu, believe it? Besides, I have already inquired about the current situation in Xihan Yuanzhou, and I have some understanding of Han Yao's next plan. .”
Hearing this, Shi Jiang was like a deflated ball. He lowered his head and said honestly: "Hey, since you know everything, let me tell you. In fact, after Han Yao escaped from Kunlun Mountain, he expected Today’s situation has come to a head. Zhao Zhengming and I have been specially ordered to separately inform the other factions to strengthen the defense of Xihan Yuanzhou to prevent anyone from attacking Netherworld Ghost State from here.”
Mu Jingyu nodded and said: "Senior Brother Shi, if you had said this earlier, wouldn't I believe you?"
Shi Jiang secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said cautiously: "Junior Brother Mu, I have told you everything I know. Do you...do you believe that I have truly surrendered?"
"Believing is believing, but..."
"It's just what?" Shi Jiang's heart raised again: "Don't worry, I, Shi Jiang, swear to God that I will not reveal your whereabouts. And I will go back to Screen City immediately to convince my father to leave the Han family and be your internal agent. .”
"Jingyu, don't believe Shi Jiang's words." Bi Yun reminded: "Yi Hong is right. The Shi family has long formed an alliance with the Han family and will definitely not betray them easily. Once he is let go, it will be revealed immediately. Our whereabouts!”
Seeing Bi Yun reveal his true plan, Shi Jiang secretly gritted his teeth with anger, but knowing Bi Yun's identity, he did not dare to accuse him openly, so he could only say with a smile: "Little Princess Bi Yun, I, Shi Jiang, keep my word! If you don’t believe it, you can go back with me.”
"I won't be fooled by you." Bi Yun said: "Screen City is the territory of your Shi family. Who knows how many people are hiding inside, just waiting for us to fall into our trap?"
"No, no, no." Shi Jiang assured, while carefully moving his body, his right hand quietly placed on the ground, and a small Gu worm quietly penetrated into the earth.
But how could he hide the method he thought no one would discover from Mu Jingyu's eyes? From the beginning, Mu Jingyu's family had no intention of letting Shi Jiang go. What I said before was just to extract useful information.
Therefore, no matter how much Shi Jiang promised that he would be his internal correspondent, Mu Jingyu had no intention of believing it. Compared to Yi Hong, he was more willing to believe in the latter.
"Hey." Mu Jingyu sighed and said, "Senior Brother Shi, Senior Brother Shi, I was ready to believe you. But look, what did you want to hide from me just now?"
As he spoke, Mu Jingyu raised his sword and dropped it. The Wuyin Immortal Sword suddenly flew out from his back, stuck firmly in the soil behind Shi Jiang, then flew out backwards and returned to his hand.
Mu Jingyu gently stroked the sword peak, finally stopped at the tip of the sword, pointed at the small black dot on it and said, "Look at what's on it, did you secretly let it out just now?"
Bi Yun carefully took off the Gu worm, fiddled with it in his hand and said, "Hmph, if my guess is right, this is something unique to the Jiuli tribe. Are you, Shi Jiang, going to use it to convey a message so that you can recruit people?" Come to besiege us?"
"Junior Brother Mu, you misunderstood." Shi Jiang was so frightened that he waved his hands repeatedly and got up from the ground, secretly preparing to escape.
"I didn't release this little bug, let alone its use. You must have been wronged by me." As Shi Jiang spoke, he had already taken a few steps back, then suddenly exerted his strength and fled deep into the woods.
Now that his little trick has been discovered, Mu Jingyu will definitely not let him go. Instead of waiting for death here, why not risk your life and try to escape?
"Want to run? Not to mention the door, there's not even a window." Mu Jingyu calmly held a sword flower, and the Wuyin Immortal Sword made a green sound, then came out and stabbed Shi Jiang accurately in the back. Heart. Poor Shijiang fell to the ground so limp before he understood what was happening, completely dead.
"I let you live a little longer, which is worthy of you and my fellow disciples." Mu Jingyu quickly walked up, withdrew the Wuyin Immortal Sword, then turned Shi Jiang over and saw his unwilling eyes.
"He's dead." Bi Yun stretched out her hand to check his breathing to make sure he wasn't pretending to be dead and said, "This place is too close to Screen City. It won't take long for him to be discovered. Let's find a place quickly. Dispose of these people's corpses."
"Don't panic." Mu Jingyu called Yi Hong to his side and said, "Senior brother Yi Hong, take a closer look at Shi Jiang's face. He is disguised as him."
"Junior Brother Mu, do you want... to let me pretend to be him, and then return to Han Yao to help you find out the news?" Yi Hong instantly understood Mu Jingyu's plan.
"Yes." Mu Jingyu nodded, then looked at Yi Hong's embarrassed look and said, "Why, is Senior Brother Yi Hong unwilling? Don't forget, when you asked me to spare your life, you promised me , no matter whether you are a cow or a horse, will you repay the kindness of not killing? Why now..."
"Junior Brother Mu, you misunderstood." Yi Hong explained hurriedly: "You also know that Han Yao is too thoughtful. Shi Jiang and I followed him, not just for a day or two, but our words and deeds He knows his behavior like the back of his hand. I'm worried...I'm worried that Han Yao will recognize him immediately after pretending to be Shi Jiang."
"Well, Senior Brother Yi is still thinking carefully, I ignored this point."
Just when Yi Hong thought that Mu Jingyu would give up this idea, he continued: "Actually, from what Shi Jiang said just now, we can all see that the Jiuli tribe is facing a difficult situation. Otherwise, he would not let it go. The factions in Xihan Yuanzhou are closely guarding the side close to Netherworld Ghost State. So, as long as you find a reason to go elsewhere immediately after seeing Han Yao and don't have too much contact with him, he should not be allowed to You can see the clues.”
"Of course, if Senior Brother Yi doesn't have confidence, I won't force you to go." Seeing that Yi Hong was still hesitant, Mu Jingyu followed up and said.
In fact, what Yi Hong just said was just to find a reason. He knows Han Yao's methods best. If he pretends to be Shi Jiang, he will definitely be discovered.
But Mu Jingyu's analysis was good. Han Yao didn't have many available people, so he would definitely let Shi Jiang go elsewhere. Therefore, it is still possible for him to hide it from Han Yao.
After thinking for a moment, Yi Hong made up his mind and said: "Okay, my life was given to me by Junior Brother Mu. Even if I die for you, it's not a big deal."
