Waiting is undoubtedly painful, and being willing to wait is undoubtedly long-term.
There was an uncomfortable silence in the room. Liu Weirui stood aside quietly, her eyes lowered, not showing too much emotion.
Another cup of tea passed, but Mu Qing's figure still didn't appear. When Liu Weirui sighed softly and was about to speak, a stone suddenly opened the window with a "whoosh".
"careful!"
Several people gathered in front of Liu Weirui, but after the stone was shot in again, it lost its momentum and rolled directly in front of everyone's feet.
"Huh?"
Xiaochan was the first to notice the difference. She separated the two people in front of her and picked up the stone, "There is something on it."
She unfolded the thing wrapped on the stone, and it was a torn piece of cloth with faint words on it.
"Miss, it's Mu Qing!"
"What's written on it?"
…
…
"What was thrown in?"
Ye Yun was slightly interested and looked up at Mu Qing who was passing by.
"a few words."
Ye Yun nodded, and Mu Qing went around for a while before finding pen and ink in a shop. She could guess a little, smiled slightly, and asked: "The situation is so tense, aren't you afraid that they would have left long ago?"
"They are still inside." Mu Qing shook his head, paused, and chuckled: "We are friends, I know they will wait for me."
"Are you friends with them?"
"I heard about her from Bai Zhi. She is a very independent and brave girl. How did you meet her?"
"Why do you keep looking at me?"
Ye Yun Liu Ye's eyebrows were curved again and again, and her delicate face covered with fine sweat was flushed. She said a few words in a row. She was slightly confused, not knowing how attractive she looked at this time.
The other person's body was so hot that Mu Qing felt like he was holding a piece of burning coal.
Mu Qing turned his eyes away and fell on Ye Yun's face again, and found that Ye Yun's eyes were gradually wandering away again, and it seemed that he was about to fall into a confused consciousness again.
Thinking of the embarrassing things along the way, Mu Qing couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "I didn't expect that even a great sword cultivator who thought he was an extraordinary level would be so gossipy."
"We need to get out of town right away."
"You're a little confused again."
"I know."
Ye Yun breathed out a mouthful of hot breath on Mu Qing's chest, and then said seriously: "I have a special constitution and suffered this. If the toxicity completely breaks out, I don't know if I can wake up next time. I hope you can fulfill my choice."
"Now is not the time to talk about this. I have done so much and I can't let you die in vain."
"Thanks."
"You don't have to be very grateful. You can make a transcendent-level great sword cultivator owe me a favor. It seems that I have earned it."
"Yeah, but I won't commit myself to you."
After silently greeting the people across the door with a flying stone, Mu Qing, who was originally extremely cool and simple, turned around and was about to fly into another darkness, but was struck by the sudden words and the tenacity and perseverance in them. The confused and confused murmur made me stagger.
"Look, you're talking nonsense again."
Mu Qing is now an assassin who saves more people than he kills.
He interacts with friends based on sincerity and does things according to his original wishes. But now that I am so serious about saving Ye Yun, I actually have a small idea that I have never made known to myself, that is, after curing Ye Yun, I can ask an extraordinary swordsman for some sword skills.
Among all kinds of monks, sword cultivators are often the best at the same level and have outstanding demeanor. They are an extremely rare group of people.
Unexpectedly, during this trip to escort the caravan, Mu Qing met many sword cultivators. Their enemies were sword cultivators and their friends were also sword cultivators.
What he learned in Hidden Valley was mixed. He only mastered basic sword moves and did not have the opportunity to learn high-level sword skills.
After appreciating their sword-wielding style, especially the enemy's, Mu Qing actually wanted to learn a swordsmanship.
If the darkness of this spring night allowed Mu Qing to take advantage of the "right time" when running away with Ye Yun, then the other party obviously took advantage of the "good location" and "right people" during the pursuit.
Mu Qing did not understand the layout of Jinguan City, and Ye Yun had never seriously understood it. Although the two of them were not caught, they spent several quarters of an hour in the city in vain.
After Feishi sent the message, Mu Qing didn't waste any more time. He talked to Ye Yun while heading south of the city.
"As long as we leave the city, there shouldn't be as many people as there are now."
Mu Qing once learned something during the training in Hidden Valley. Choosing the location for the assassination is very important, just like choosing the battlefield. The time, place and people are favorable. All you have to do is to erase the opponent's advantage and then seize your own advantage. .
"Where are you going?"
"The Yuejiu Thatched Cottage next to Huanhua Stream, didn't I tell you about it?"
"Huanhua Creek is in the southern suburbs. You are going in the wrong direction."
"Oh, I'm not familiar with Jinguan City."
Yue Jiu had mentioned the address of Yue Jiu Thatched Cottage in Mu Qing's ears countless times.
Because Mu Qing still refused to hand Ning Chu's letter directly to Yue Jiu, Yue Jiu shyly asked Mu Qing many times along the way. However, Mu Qing always insisted on sending Yue Jiu to Yue Jiu Thatched Cottage as instructed by her senior sister. Every time Yue Jiu failed, he would be like being struck by countless swords. He reluctantly reported the address to one side, reminding Mu Qing that he had arrived at Jinguan City. Never say you can't find the place again.
"Fortunately, there are many drug stores near the south of the city, otherwise it would be really worrying."
Satisfied, Mu Qing packed up a large bag of medicinal materials and tied it on his back.
At this time, Yin Shi was approaching, the sun and the moon were alternating, and the morning light mixed with the night was about to reveal the white fish belly. Mu Qing was carrying a big burden and hugging Ye Yun. Go to the south wall.
He didn't hear the familiar voice, so he lowered his head to take stock of Ye Yun's condition. He saw that Ye Yun's lips were tightly pursed, and the traces of bites from her silver teeth were especially visible. She didn't know when she fell into a coma.
Mu Qing looked a little serious. When she was still three feet away from the city wall, she bent her legs and crouched slightly. She exerted strength under her feet. Holding a person in her arms, she crossed over to the city wall without even being on a hard wall. Borrowed once.
…
…
"Damn it, you are all a bunch of losers! I pointed out the direction for you and you can't catch up."
In a team that was speeding towards the south of the city, Zheng Deduo was sitting in a carriage pulled by two tall horses. His face was pale, he was covering his shoulder blades in pain, and his tone was becoming increasingly impatient.
"Uh... Well, maybe they weren't poisoned." A small leader, riding a horse parallel to the carriage, retorted while staring at the pressure.
"Bullshit, don't make excuses for your incompetence!" Zheng Deduo opened the curtain and cursed: "If I didn't show you the direction, you wouldn't even be able to see the other person's back. The other person must have been poisoned by me."
As time went by, everyone obviously lost patience after repeated failures.
Zheng Deduo was shocked and confused, and his old face became more wrinkled. Before, he had concluded that the other party was poisoned and could not run out of a five-mile radius. Why was he still running around like a dog for a walk now?
"Hiss - chase me, they must be holding on, and we will wear them out."
Zheng Deduo's situation was not easy. A pale white flower, which seemed to have little power, pierced through the shoulder blade and brought great destruction and torture to his Taoist inner womb.
He was able to hold on until now without passing out, and he could still guide everyone in the direction, because he relied on the desire of breaking the mirror in his heart to support him.
When he thought of catching the innate water body later, Zheng Deduo felt that he could still hold on.
No matter how tenacious the confidence built by the desire in his heart was, he was still shaken a lot when he found out that the other party was able to climb over the wall this time. He loudly ordered the sergeant to open the city gate and go out to arrest the person, but he only waited until his men bowed their heads. silence.
"grown ups……"
"The city lord has an order not to open the door until the remnant is caught."
"Bastard, he is nothing. Those remnants have all run out of the city. What are you waiting for?"
"Haha. Zheng Gongfeng is right. I, Bai Rong, am indeed nothing. I am just the new city lord of Jinguan City with the acquiescence of His Majesty the Emperor. Do you need me to say something in the open when the situation in the city is not stable?"
Bai Rong didn't know when he arrived in front of the carriage. His eyes glanced over Zheng Deduo's shoulder, sighed, and said slowly: "Bian Xia is dead, Xing Zuo and the cook were seriously injured and unconscious. Where were you at that time?"
Zheng Deduo narrowed his eyes and asked in a cold voice, "What do you mean? Are you threatening me?"
The four Zheng Deduo came together because of the will of all parties, and their original intention was to help Bai Rong successfully obtain the position of city lord.
Zheng Deduo was still sober at this time, but now this result is really not very good. It is obvious that he has been hiding in the dark and not making much effort. Bai Rong has noticed it and caused the other party's dissatisfaction.
Bai Rong's eyelids narrowed, and after a moment of silence, he said seriously: "You and I both know that the nine great city lords in the dynasty are like the emperors of the land who rule over one side. Your Majesty has always used military force to kill those who are not obedient in their positions. So, now that I have become the city lord, the position of city lord has been successfully returned to His Majesty."
"As for other things, you can take it slow."
"You don't want to eliminate the roots?"
"Only the woman and one helper ran out. The others are still in the city."
Zheng Deduo was silent. Bai Rong rode closer and said, "I don't know why you have to catch that woman, and I don't want to know."
"However, if you open the city gate and take the lead in breaking this delicate balance, the big families in the city will no longer sit idly by and remain silent. My forced closing of the city gate against everyone's will has already caused many problems. People’s dissatisfaction and collective will will definitely make it difficult to close the city gate.”
Zheng Deduo was noncommittal and insisted: "Even if those big families have opinions, the question is, will you care?"
Bai Rong did not expect the other party to be so stubborn, and said in a cold voice: "We captured a few people on Shihu Street tonight. Although those people were beaten to death and refused to reveal their identities, I can guess that most of them are people from those big families. But I won’t delve into it any further, do you know why?”
"The future stability and prosperity of Jinguan City will depend on these people, who hinder us from doing things. They can't run away, let alone won't run away. After all, the stability of Jinguan City is the stability of my position as the city lord, and this is Your Majesty. expectations.”
Bai Rong approached Zheng Deduo and said in a cold voice: "When the time comes, let the real remnant sneak into the crowd and run away, and you go and find it for me? You really don't have to obey my orders, but do you understand that you want to take him with you now?" These personal guards of the city lord's palace chose this time to open the city gate and come in and out. Who do they want to embarrass?"
Zheng Deduo's expression gradually softened. Bai Rong breathed a sigh of relief and made amends, "I can let you go out of the city alone, but that woman is so powerful, are you sure?"
