Above the cellar where Wen Jin and Chu Jian were kept was the courtyard that Mu Yun bought for the Imperial Master's Mansion.
Under this courtyard, there is a bright and shining light.
The surge of spiritual power frightened both Wen Jin and Chu Jian.
Wen Jin thought...if this was retrieved tonight, would it still be possible to prevent Zhuan Xu from going to Dengzhou?
Zhuan Xu asked about Shen Yibai... If Shen Yibai had told her, she was the one who took the initiative to get on the Shen family's carriage. Zhuanxu must understand her motives immediately, right?
Will that speed up Zhuan Xu's journey to Dengzhou?
Wen Jin stared at Ruyi's pocket intently... Ruyi, Ruyi, this is really not satisfactory at all!
"Sister, don't you want to be found so soon?" Chu Jian saw Wen Jin's expression turned ugly and asked in a low voice.
Wen Jin looked at her sharply, "What else can you do?"
Chu Jian shook his head helplessly, "No...it's over. Zhuanxu must be able to sense such a large energy fluctuation. He can find it here in less than half an hour."
Wen Jin breathed out slowly, "If you act rashly in a hurry, there must be many mistakes... Oh, it's inevitable. Don't worry about it. If you are found, you will be found."
"Soldiers will come to cover up the water and earth. Just take it one step at a time."
Wen Jin smiled slightly, raised his hand and stroked Chu Jian's head, "Go to sleep. I'll call you when he comes here."
"Well..." Chu Jian nodded, "If he takes action, I will protect my sister. I will just close my eyes and rest my mind and recharge my batteries."
When I first met, I pulled up the quilt and closed my eyes to take a nap.
Wen Jin waited and waited... There is no clepsydra here, no stars and moon can be seen, and it is difficult to tell the time.
She waited until she dozed off... half an hour, was it so long? Zhuanxu hasn't come here yet?
Could it be that he...has already gone to Dengzhou?
…
Zhuanxu walked alone in the yard, thinking about it... Wen Jin's disappearance might be related to Dengzhou!
Either that, it’s related to Mu Yun!
Thinking of this, there was a fire in his heart, and he left the courtyard and returned to the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion again.
As for the spiritual power fluctuations under the courtyard... When Zhuan Xu moved to this courtyard, he set up a barrier formation in the courtyard.
The fluctuations of spiritual power from the outside world cannot invade and interfere with the courtyard, so as not to affect him.
This formation barrier also hid the energy fluctuations in the cellar and did not leak out.
Zhuanxu came to the Chaifang courtyard of the Imperial Prefecture.
"Madam... Madam, are you back?" Mu Yun woke up immediately when he heard the movement.
There were no lights in the woodshed and it was pitch dark.
Through the moonlight in the courtyard, I could vaguely see a tall figure approaching.
Mu Yun immediately shut up and was so nervous that he almost bit his tongue.
"You thought it was Madam who came to see you? Why did Madam come to see you?" Zhuan Xu said in a cold voice, "What did she tell you?"
"No...no."
"No?" Zhuan Xu snorted.
He lightly hooked his fingers, and Mu Yun immediately let out a miserable cry.
"It hurts...it hurts! Imperial Master, have mercy on me! Imperial Master, please have mercy! I say...I say!"
Mu Yun was in so much pain that he realized at this moment that cutting boards and keeping the firewood shed were not worth mentioning in front of the Grand Master.
If Master Guo wanted to torture someone, all he had to do was move his fingers... He felt as if thousands of needles were pricking him all over his body, so hard that the needles even penetrated into his bones, destroying his muscles, bones, skin and flesh. , all pricked to pieces.
"The madam asked the villain why the clothes came into his hands... The villain refused to tell. The madam said that she could intercede for the villain so that he could still be the steward of the National Preceptor's Mansion..."
"The villain is obsessed with ghosts... I believed the madam's words, so I gave the treasure to the madam, and begged the madam to rescue the villain... I didn't expect... wu wu, the villain is stupid, the villain is greedy, the villain shouldn't trust the lady... …”
Zhuan Xu narrowed his eyes slightly, "Aren't you going to tell the truth?"
"Did she teach you to say these words?"
Mu Yun's heart tightened, and his whole body ached and itched, the pain was excruciating, and the itching was excruciating.
He rolled on the ground in agony, and rubbed hard... The wounds on his buttocks and thighs were torn and bleeding, and the smell of blood filled the woodshed.
He couldn't stop at all, even if it was bloody and bloody, as long as it could relieve the itching and pain on his body.
"She said everything, but you are still here holding on, what are you doing?"
Zhuan Xu sneered, "Do you think I will let you go just because of a woman's plea?"
"Or do you think she will really keep her mouth shut about your affairs and fool me?"
Mu Yun's heart was filled with turmoil...Have you already said that? Did Wen Jin say anything?
No...it can't be right?
If she told her, she wouldn't be able to get away with it!
She stole those clothes from Master Guo!
As for why she stole Master Guo's clothes when he was taking a shower... Although she couldn't figure it out, what good would it do to her if she did it?
No... there may be some fraud involved.
"It's... it's the truth, Grand Master, I don't dare to lie to you!"
"Who do you belong to?" Zhuan Xu looked at Mu Yun coldly, "Where did you get that wishful thinking bag?"
"Think clearly before you speak. If you dare to continue to lie to me, I will make your life worse than death."
Mu Yun's whole body tensed up, and his chin seemed to be tightly grasped by someone. He suddenly raised his face and turned to the Imperial Master.
The Imperial Master was obviously still three to five steps away from him.
He stood alone in this dirty woodshed, dressed in white, spotless, and incompatible with this woodshed.
The master didn't stretch out his hand, let alone touch him with a finger.
But Mu Yun's chin was pinched tightly by a pair of invisible hands.
Mu Yun seemed to hear the sound of his mandible being crushed.
"Ah...it hurts, little man. I belong to the national master!"
"The villain has never thought of betraying the Imperial Master and seeking refuge with the Madam... He just saw that the Imperial Master dotes on the Madam and honors her, so he wants to have a good relationship with the Madam..."
"The villain met an old Taoist... and asked for that pocket from the Taoist! The villain wants to use that pocket to get promoted and make a fortune..."
"The villain wanted to try the bag, so he asked the bag for the most important and valuable thing in the house... Who knew that the old man was a liar! The Ruyi Bag actually stole the clothes of the Imperial Master..."
"The villain really didn't mean it... The villain didn't dare to say anything at first because he was afraid of being expelled from the Imperial Master's Mansion by the Imperial Master..."
"If Madam hadn't pressed me... and said that I could plead for the villain, I wouldn't have dared to say it... Wuwuwu... Master Guo, please have mercy on me!"
The woodshed fell silent.
There was only the sound of Mu Yun moaning, sobbing and begging.
Zhuanxu stood in the cold moonlight with his hands behind his back.
After an unknown amount of time, Mu Yun felt that the pain all over his body seemed to have lessened, and the pain that was gnawing at his bones and gouging out his heart had also disappeared.
He was panting heavily, and his clothes were soaked with sweat. His whole body looked like he had been fished out of the water.
"She did plead for you..."
Zhuanxu finally spoke again, "But after she begged for mercy, she disappeared."
"Ah?" Mu Yun suddenly raised his head.
"I have other things to do. Go and find her quietly for me." Zhuanxu warned, "If you can't find her, you will die. If the news is leaked, your relatives and friends will die with you."
"Yes... I understand!"
