There is no moon on a spring night, and there are rain clouds gathering like ink.
The corners of the eaves of the high-rise buildings looked like the kiss of an animal. I looked up and sniffed the lead clouds at night. Before the noise of people on the ground came, suddenly a figure leaped like a bird and landed lightly on it.
"Who are you?"
"Mu Qing."
Mu Qing looked back to confirm the movement behind him, and then raised his eyes to recognize the road ahead. He heard the delicate girl in his arms, but did not lower his head to appreciate the red light of the beauty in his arms.
Ye Yun struggled slightly, and the hand holding her knee relaxed slightly. The fog in her eyes cleared, and she temporarily regained her clarity. "Thank you for saving me. Where are we going?"
"Are you afraid of going to the City Lord's Mansion?" Mu Qing found the right direction, stepped on the corner of the eaves and flew out again.
Ye Yun leaned weakly in Mu Qing's arms, blinked her eyes, and whispered: "This is a good place to go."
Mu Qing didn't expect that the woman in his arms could adapt so quickly. He looked into her eyes and asked in surprise: "Don't you doubt me even if I have the word 'good guy' carved on my forehead?"
Ye Yun's unstretched willow eyebrows curled again, and she asked doubtfully: "Are you not from the Li family? I thought the people who rescued those two little guys were the same as you."
Mu Qingjian's eyebrows suddenly frowned, and he could not shake off the firelight. His body fell quickly and hid in the deserted alley again.
While paying attention to the movements around him, he asked softly: "Why must it be someone from the Li family who rescued Li Miaozhen?"
"You were partly right. Those two people and I are indeed in the same group, but in terms of identity, the Liu family must be blamed. It was Miss Wei Rui who asked us to take action to save Li Miaozhen and save you by the way. "
Ye Yun understood Mu Qing's meaning and nodded, "Li Miaozhen wanted to save Bai Zhi, and Liu Weirui wanted to save Li Miaozhen, so you saved us all. It's not complicated to say."
"It's just." She suddenly choked out before she could finish her words, and beads of sweat covered her forehead.
Her eyebrows were wavering, her eyes were closed tightly, and she suppressed the discomfort in her body, sighing softly: "It's just that they are all a group of warm-blooded and kind-hearted girls. They are really cute."
Mu Qing noticed something strange about the other party and thought that the other party's injuries were too serious. At this time, the pursuers had not gotten rid of him and could not treat him in time.
As he quickly ran towards the agreed place, he said: "I haven't asked for your name yet."
"Ye Yun."
After Ye Yun said her name, she suddenly opened her eyes and looked at Mu Qing, and added: "Extraordinary sword cultivator."
Mu Qing paused, nodded, and then continued walking through the streets.
Mu Qing knew about the "Transcendent Level" level from Mrs. Lin, but his pause just now was not because of Ye Yun's strength itself, but because of why the other party wanted to say it.
Is this a hidden threat?
Before Mu Qing could ask why such an attitude, Ye Yun gave her own answer.
"Did you know that powerful poison cultivators can track poisoned people just by smell?"
Mu Qing suddenly understood, and remembered the "Ten Miles of Incense" in the poison chapter of "The Book of All Poisons". He had once followed Cao Mo, but he had forgotten the methods that these poison cultivators should have.
Ye Yun didn't wait for Mu Qing to answer, stared at him and continued to ask: "You should take me to join them, right?"
"Yes." Mu Qing nodded and said, "They should be waiting for us in a shop next to the City Lord's Mansion."
Ye Yun shook her head and said decisively: "Let me down. Just say thank you to Miss Wei Rui for me. The idea that the most dangerous place is the safest place is very good, but I can't even suppress this poison. , I won’t bother everyone.”
"That poison seems to be called 'Hedao San'?" Mu Qing heard Zheng Deduo laughing loudly behind Ye Yun's back and said it himself. From the name of this poison, he thought it should be some kind of higher-level poison.
"Yes, do you know how to cure this poison?"
Ye Yun raised her red face and exhaled a mouthful of hot breath, "I can feel that my inability to mobilize my true energy is due to another kind of poison. If you are not a pharmacist or a poison cultivator, you should not have it." There’s a way.”
"I've never heard of it, but I still have a way to try."
Ye Yun expressed his doubts with silence, Mu Qing chuckled and once again expressed his confidence, "I should have a way. It's just that the poison that can make the extraordinary level uncontrollable will definitely take a while. Now The most lacking thing is time.”
Ye Yun squinted her eyes, looked at Mu Qing seriously, and said in a more serious tone: "You don't know how to cure this poison. I can feel the changes in myself and vaguely guess what the other person is thinking. I am an innate water source. He obviously wants to replenish my body, and 'Hedao Powder' is most likely an aphrodisiac."
Mu Qing was stunned and speechless when he heard these words. Ye Yun followed her own guess and said firmly while her expression was still clear: "If... if it really comes to that point, I don't need this." Please respect my choice and give me a happy death."
Mu Qing's expression became solemn. The woman in front of him had a tough and fierce character, and she was full of decisiveness. He promised seriously: "If things cannot be violated and it really comes to that point, I will respect Miss Ye's choice."
He smiled very cleanly and said: "I understand that sometimes wishful thinking of helping can actually turn into taking advantage of danger. I promise you will never take advantage of you."
"But." Mu Qing tightened the arms holding her knees, causing Ye Yun to feel a real sense of shame in her sickly red face, and said comfortingly while striding through the streets like a meteor: "The situation is not that bad yet. I think even if the other party is smart enough to track by scent, there will still be distance limitations."
"In addition, although I am only a third-level cultivation level and am neither a pharmacist nor a poison cultivator, please believe me. I am still certain about detoxification. Aren't you surprised why I wasn't poisoned? You know my My left hand was also scratched by the opponent.”
Ye Yun Liu Ye's eyebrows relaxed slightly and asked softly: "Where are we going now?"
Mu Qing listened to the footsteps in the distance, frowned and said: "Thank you for reminding me, otherwise it would have been a drag on Wei Rui and the others. Now there is only one way to get rid of these followers immediately."
…
…
Jinguan City is different from Zhuque City. Because it is not located on the border, there is little chaos, so there is no distinction between inner and outer cities.
The street closest to the city lord's palace is crowded with various luxury shops and restaurants. There is a shop called "Splendid Golden Silk", which is the largest shop of the Liu family.
It was late at night, and the shops where there were long lines of customers during the day had already closed their doors.
The sergeants who came out of the city lord's palace and passed this shop did not even glance at this shop. Their neat footsteps were occasionally chaotic due to the issuance of orders, but they walked steadily deeper into the night.
It is difficult for them, who claim to be elites, to discover that the silence in the store across the door is deliberately suppressed, and slight breathing can be heard from time to time. There is a girl who is still in a coma inside. They are the ones who are disturbing the whole city and are not afraid to catch her. The goal.
"They are heading to the south of the city." Someone stood breathlessly by the window, then carefully looked at the movement outside through the slight gap. After the group of sergeants had gone away, they turned around and took a long breath. The turbid air is none other than Xiaochan.
"Yes." Liu Weirui turned her back to Xiaochan, her eyes passed over Li Miaozhen's pale and unconscious pretty face, and landed on Bai Zhi's face. She frowned and asked, "Why hasn't he come yet?"
Zhang Zizhen lowered his head and said, "When Mu Qing assigned the task, he took the woman who was most difficult to save as his own. It must have been a delay."
Xiaochan took a few steps closer and said worriedly: "It has been at least a quarter of an hour since we came from the shop over there to Jinxiu Jinsi. I don't know what went wrong with Mr. Mu Qing. Is it possible that it was Mr. Mu Qing? Can’t find a place.”
Liu Weirui and Mu Qing had discussed that if someone fell behind when rescuing people, in order to prevent their position from being exposed, those who met first would no longer have to wait where they were, and would now go to the "Splendid Golden Silk" near the City Lord's Mansion.
Liu Weirui's eyes fell on Bai Zhi's face. Because of Li Miaozhen, Liu Weirui had met him several times and figured out some things.
"Her name is Bai Zhi. She is the daughter of the city lord. She should be the one those people outside are looking for."
Liu Weirui blinked, looked at the Zhang brothers and said, "Although we had some guesses about this civil strife, we obviously underestimated the opponent's strength. Did you notice anything when you rescued people?"
Zhang Zizhen looked a little embarrassed, shook his head and replied: "After we rescued the person, we just ran away without bothering to fight with the other party."
Zhang Zishan stood aside and added: "The leader of the other party is an old man, and his strength should be good. The woman Mu Qing wanted to save behind was confronting him at the time."
"It seems that we have to wait until they wake up before we can know more useful information." Liu Weirui's tone was slightly regretful.
Zhang Zizhen quickly explained: "Miss, please believe that although we knocked them unconscious, they were seriously injured, otherwise they should have woken up long ago.
"I don't mean to blame you." Liu Weirui looked away from Li Miaozhen, sighed, and smiled bitterly, unable to hide her self-blame, "I asked you to save this person, but you put Mu Qing in danger."
She raised her head and looked at Zhang Zizhen and said, "Why don't you go out and look for him and pick him up."
Zhang Zizhen shook his head vigorously and firmly denied: "No! This place is so close to the city lord's palace. If we go out, it is only a matter of time before we are exposed. We cannot guarantee your safety, young lady, and we will do nothing."
Although the two brothers were able to accompany Liu Weirui into Jinguan City at night, they still obeyed Ling Qingzhu's orders. After a brief silence, Liu Weirui stopped forcing her and her eyes fell on Xiaochan who was approaching Li Miaozhen.
Anyone who practices martial arts will suffer some injuries during daily practice. Xiaochan had asked Li Miaozhen for medical advice before and knew some techniques of seeing and hearing.
"The stab wound on Miss Miaozhen's back was serious and she lost a lot of blood. Miss Bai Zhi had no obvious external injuries, but there were two different domineering forces in her body, so she should have suffered a lot of internal injuries."
Xiaochan turned around and looked at Liu Weirui, frowned and said, "Miss, they are not awake yet. They must have lost strength due to injuries."
Zhang Zizhen sounded more certain: "They must have had a fierce battle before they were surrounded."
Zhang Zishan looked around, and after a moment of silence, he said seriously: "We have no medicine here."
Liu Weirui raised her eyebrows slightly and said in a low voice, "Wait a moment."
Xiaochan sighed and said, "It would be great if we could contact the Li family."
Liu Weirui shook her head and refused: "No, contacting them at this time will probably cause them a lot of trouble, and I don't think Miaozhen is willing to do so."
Zhang Zishan felt that he had not performed well in front of Liu Weirui. Recalling his previous experience of rescuing people, he said, "It seems that some people are secretly helping us because we are able to come back so smoothly."
"Near the burning street, the rebels chasing us seemed to be contained."
"Really?" Liu Weirui glanced clearly and guessed: "The area where the fire was burning is not far from the Li family. It is very likely that they are members of the Li family."
Hearing this possibility, Zhang Zishan felt happy and blurted out: "Then let's go directly to them."
Liu Weirui blinked her eyes, spoke calmly, and said softly: "Wait a little longer."
There was actually a lot of conflict and worry in his calm tone. He said "wait a little longer" twice. Liu Weirui just wanted to wait until someone could arrive safely, but she also understood that procrastinating like this was very irresponsible.
