inside the room.
Candlelight flickers.
Xue Mu was lying on the bed.
took off his shirt.
Xu Ruyan looked at the strong muscles and blushed a little.
You know, Xue Mu helped him take off his clothes last time.
This time it was my turn to watch.
When she saw the two-finger-wide knife mark on her abdomen, she couldn't help but feel distressed: "Did it hurt at that time?"
"It's okay." Xue Mu replied.
Xu Ruyan then lightly dipped her hands into elephant gall powder and applied it on Xue Mu's scars.
Xue Mu closed his eyes, feeling his skin was cold and comfortable.
Especially Xu Ruyan's slender fingers gently touched the skin.
There is a feeling like hibiscus coming out of water.
During the application process, neither of them spoke.
The atmosphere seemed a little different.
So Xu Ruyan blushed and asked, "Master, how do you feel?"
"It's very good. It's cool. It should be effective." Xue Mu replied.
"That's good."
Because the candlelight is a bit far away from the bed.
So Xu Ruyan couldn't clearly see the location of the scar.
From time to time she would bend down and look down.
Although Xue Mu couldn't see clearly, he could still feel the heaviness when he bent down.
Perhaps it was the feeling brought by those fingers, as he was a vigorous man.
There came some sensory response.
Just like this, Xu Ruyan lowered her head every time.
Xue Mu had to divert his attention internally and stay awake at all times.
If this was seen by outsiders, they might think that they were doing something indecent.
After applying it, Xu Ruyan was worried that Xue Mu would catch a cold, so she reminded: "Sir, you should rest early..."
"good."
Xue Mu immediately put on his clothes.
I have to say, the area where it is applied feels cool and feels great.
Although he wears clothes on weekdays, outsiders cannot see him.
But it would also be a good thing to make this scar fade away.
So Xue Mu thanked her and said, "Thank you for your hard work Ruyan."
Xu Ruyan seemed flattered, and she immediately shook her head: "No, no, Master, you are serious. My daughter has always wanted to do something for you. Now that she can help Master, Ruyan is very happy. There is no such thing as a reward."
"No matter what, I still have to thank you." Xue Mu laughed.
After hearing this, Xu Ruyan's face gradually turned red. She thought of something, and then asked: "Sir, are you really going to see the master of Hukou Hall tomorrow night?"
"Yes." Xue Mu nodded: "This matter must be resolved."
"But......"
"Don't worry, I'm fine."
Xue Mu knew what Xu Ruyan was thinking, so he comforted her: "You also know that I know martial arts. If I can't fight, I will run away."
Xu Ruyan nodded, but she still felt guilty in her heart: "I have caused you trouble."
"I'm not going to get involved. You were following me at first, but then you went to the wrong alley." Xue Mu explained.
Xu Ruyan was stunned for a moment, then she raised her head and said in surprise: "Sir, it turns out you know that I am following you."
"Of course, otherwise why would I go back to save you in the end?" Xue Mu replied with a smile.
It was this sentence that caused a blush to appear on Xu Ruyan's face.
She gently held her hair with her hands and lowered her head.
His eyes flickered, obviously too nervous to hide.
She bit her lower lip shyly, and finally whispered: "Master... Ruyan... is willing to work hard for you in the future."
"Don't talk about cows and horses."
"I know you have your own ideas. You are not living for anyone, but for yourself."
Xu Ruyan was even more moved by Xue Mu's comforting words.
Seeing that it was getting late, he said, "You should rest early."
"Okay, then Ruyan won't disturb the young master."
Xu Ruyan returned to the room.
Recalling what Xue Mu said just now, her mood, which had been at a low point these days, gradually warmed up...
...
Early the next morning, Xue Mu got up.
The same as yesterday.
Just came out of the front hall.
He smelled the aroma of breakfast again.
This time it was dumplings.
Xue Mu took a bite.
You can taste the craftsmanship of Leng Mei.
"tasty."
As the saying goes, nothing is more delicious than dumplings, and nothing more fun than...
After Xue Mu ate a bowl, he went out.
Arrive at Jingzhao Mansion.
He made his rounds as usual.
Soon, he arrived at the Class C cell.
When he arrived at Cell No. 7, Liu Xiaodao was chewing on a straw, sitting there with his legs crossed and in a daze.
When he heard movement outside the cell door, he turned around and looked.
When Liu Xiaodao saw Xue Mu coming, he immediately became excited: "Sir! Are you okay?!"
Xue Mu took out the key and fumbled to open the cell door.
He took out a piece of food from his pocket and handed it to Liu Xiaodao.
When Liu Xiaodao saw it, he couldn't help drooling: "Thank you, sir, thank you, sir!"
As he said that, he took the chicken butt and bit it in one bite.
Seeing how delicious he was eating, Xue Mu couldn't help but ask, "Why do you prefer eating chicken butts?"
"When I was young, my family was poor, so I went to the neighbor's widow's house to beg for food. She asked me to take off my clothes and sleep with her, and then she gave me chicken butts to eat. Her chicken butts were fragrant and delicious, so I fell in love with them. Got this taste."
Liu Xiaodao explained: "Sir, why don't you try it too."
Xue Mu shook his head, "You can eat it, and I won't snatch your chicken butt."
Then, Liu Xiaodao glanced outside and said in a low voice: "Sir... there was an adult who kept questioning me that day. I followed what you told me before and told her exactly that I didn't Talking nonsense."
"Well, you did a good job, that's why you have something to eat." Xue Mu said calmly.
Before leaving, he and Liu Xiaodao said: "The Sheriff's Department will appropriately postpone your execution date in view of your meritorious service in prison. It may be changed to after next autumn."
When Liu Xiaodao heard this, he became happy: "Thank you, sir! Thank you, sir!"
Xue Mu left.
When passing by the Class B cell, he also went to the cell where He Tingli was imprisoned.
Through visual inspection, He Tingli's physical condition was worse than yesterday.
If this continues, we won’t even have to wait until spring next year, maybe we’ll be done with it someday in the future.
But Xue Mu just passed by and left.
Whether He Tingli dies or not has nothing to do with him.
He couldn't help, and had no reason to.
All he could do was hand over a bowl of water.
After Xue Mu completed his inspection, he returned to the execution room where everyone rested.
On weekdays, the jailers would hold fists and chat here.
Today is no exception.
Since Qin Hui, Lao Qin's son, came to report on the first day, their old friends took him to learn a few tricks.
Xue Mu chose a place and closed his eyes to rest.
Tonight he would have to face the people of Hukou Hall alone.
Although his current strength has reached the third level of opening pulses, Xue Mu has no way of knowing how many strong men there are in Hukou Hall.
[It would be great if I could find an expert to help me. 】
Just as he was thinking, the sound of footsteps came.
The next second, everyone who was still laughing and joking immediately fell silent.
They shouted in unison: "Lord Nangong!"
Nangong Xue was seen wearing the official attire of the Divine Catching Division, her hair was tied into a bun, and she was wearing an eagle-claw-shaped hairpin. Her whole image had an inviolable temperament.
Her eyes glanced over, not looking at Hu Daming and the others at all.
Instead, he looked at Xue Mu in the corner and said expressionlessly: "Xue Mu! Come here."
