Mu Lingtian was naturally worried about Wei Hongyan, but since the killer was ambushing him, he must have come prepared. Moreover, the killer should have captured Wei Hongyan just to threaten himself. Wei Hongyan should not be in any danger for the time being. Ma'er had already arrived. At the limit, if you continue to rush, you may have to go on foot, which will waste time. If you go forward lightly, it will consume too much, and you may put yourself and Mingyu in danger, so after making a decision, Mu Ling Tiancai decided to let the horse rest.
Seeing Mingyu's puzzled look, Mu Lingtian just sighed and explained: "If people don't rest, horses also have to rest. I'm afraid it will be early tomorrow morning. It's better to rest for a while before going."
Mingyu thought for a while and felt that what Mu Lingtian said made sense. Her frown concealed worry, but she could only nod her head in response, say "hmm", and get off her horse.
Mu Lingtian knew that the killer had already started to take action, so he naturally became more vigilant. Although Mingyu's identity was a mystery, but having been with Mingyu for so long, Mu Lingtian still didn't want Mingyu to be in any danger or cause any more trouble. So Mu Lingtian ordered Mingyu in a cold voice: "You are waiting, don't run around."
Before Mingyu could react, he stared at Mu Lingtian's big, watery eyes and blinked twice before responding cutely: "Oh!"
Mu Lingtian only brought a small amount of dry food, picked up some firewood nearby, and prepared to hunt two game animals to prevent himself from starving.
Mingyu had not rested for two days and was already tired now. When he found Mu Lingtian, he felt a sense of security in his heart. Following Mu Lingtian's instructions, Mingyu sat on the ground waiting for Mu Lingtian and looked at Mu Lingtian. Oh my god, my eyelids became heavier and heavier without realizing it. I closed my eyes and fell asleep.
A moment later, Mu Lingtian came back with a sword in his left hand and dragging firewood and game in his right hand. When he saw Mingyu lying on the ground, his eyebrows wrinkled slightly, murderous intent emerged in his eyes, and he glanced around indifferently from the corner of his eyes. After once again confirming that there was no ambush nearby, he set his sights on Mingyu again.
At this moment, Mingyu, who was lying on the ground, heard the sound of sleeping soundly. Mu Lingtian put down his vigilance and returned to Mingyu's side.
Mu Lingtian didn't expect that Mingyu could fall asleep even when he was hungry. He probably guessed something, so he didn't disturb Mingyu, covered Mingyu with a piece of clothing, and lit a fire next to Mingyu. Game was roasted.
The firelight in the dark night illuminated this small world. Mu Lingtian sat cross-legged next to Mingyu. After the dinner was cooked, he saw that Mingyu still didn't wake up, so he gently patted Mingyu beside him, indifferently. He whispered: "Hey, wake up, it's time to eat!"
Mingyu, who was curled up under Mu Lingtian's clothes, might have smelled the aroma of barbecue, and had the instinct of a foodie. His saliva had already flowed over his lips and dripped down his face. When he heard Mu Lingtian's voice, he seemed to hear the call of food. , smacked the small mouth of the cherry twice, showing a greedy smile.
Mu Lingtian saw Mingyu's appearance, then shook Mingyu gently and said in a louder voice: "Hey, wake up, I will eat it all for you if you wake up."
Maybe Mingyu was really too sleepy. After Mu Lingtian yelled like this, Mingyu still didn't wake up. Mu Lingtian sighed softly and stopped calling Mingyu. He took away the barbecue next to the fire and took a piece for himself. Start eating.
The night was quiet. After eating something, Mu Lingtian closed his eyes and rested.
A wisp of breeze blew by, as if it was about to take away the night. The skylight began to tear apart the veil of the night. Mu Lingtian, who was sitting cross-legged, slowly opened his eyes.
Mingyu curled up into a ball, wrapped in Mu Lingtian's clothes, sleeping innocently with his back against Mu Lingtian.
Mu Lingtian woke up, then looked sideways at Mingyu beside him, patted Mingyu's face gently, and shouted softly: "Hey, wake up, it's time to go!"
Mingyu, who had rested for the night, seemed to have heard Mu Lingtian's shout, and stayed in bed like a spoiled brat. He said a lazy "hmm" and continued to sleep.
Mu Lingtian saw Mingyu's response, but there was no response. He pinched Mingyu's face with his left hand, applied a slight force, and shouted louder: "Are you hungry? Get up!"
Feeling pain on his face, Mingyu opened his eyes suddenly, unconsciously covering his little face with his hands, and shouted softly: "Ah, it hurts, it hurts..."
When Mu Lingtian saw Mingyu woke up, he naturally let go of his hand, stood up and lit a fire to heat up last night's food.
Mingyu covered his face with his left hand, rubbed it twice, and moved his left cheek twice, and then moved his gaze to Mu Lingtian. There was a hint of girlish dissatisfaction between his eyebrows and eyes. He stared at Mu Lingtian, who dared to be angry? The appearance of not daring to speak is actually a bit more cute.
After resting for the night, the two of them set off again after having breakfast.
Among the green woods, a foot-wide path stretches down the mountain in the distance. Two killers dressed as farmers are hiding on two large leafy branches.
It was just after noon, during the lazy hour, but the two guards did not relax at all. They carefully watched the way forward, looked at each other, and guarded each other, because according to their calculations, Mu Lingtian should have arrived at this moment.
Mingyu had already told Mu Lingtian the approximate distribution of the killers and even the time of exchange of information, and Mu Lingtian made a simple plan.
It was almost time to change the guard. The guard standing on the tree trunk and looking around was still carefully staring at the road in the distance. A strange small sound came from the guard. The guard looked back.
"Whoosh——"
A cold light flashed, and a sword blade the size of a dagger flew towards him as fast as lightning. The vigor and strength were enough to crush stone and break gold. The guard had no time to react, so he only widened his eyes, facing the impending death.
The sword edge penetrated the guard's neck, leaving some fine ice crystals to fly away and disappear invisible. Blood spattered and the guard flew down under the tree with the force.
The guard on another tree seemed to see something out of the corner of his eye. He glanced sideways to confirm that he had seen it correctly. He hurriedly scanned the woods, his eyes full of fear. His back suddenly felt cold, and there was a strange movement behind him. , turned around in panic, only to see a emerald green light flying towards him.
When the guard was in panic and panic, he had no time to react, and the Phoenix Feather Ice Thorn pierced the guard's chest. The guard let out a miserable groan, blood spattered, and he fell with the force of the Phoenix Feather Ice Thorn.
Mingyu's light figure flew like an oriole and landed in front of the guard. The fingertips of her right hand confidently crossed the tip of her nose, pulled out the phoenix feather ice thorn on the guard's chest, hid it behind her waist, and faced Mu Lingtian. Go.
Mu Lingtian's slender figure, holding a long sword in his left hand, walked quietly past, his cold eyes scanning the surroundings indifferently, like a ghost wandering in the woods, making no sound.
