Between the mountains.
Mu Qing stood under a cedar tree, looking at the out-of-breath guy with his hands on his thighs in front of him, and frowned: "Did Qingyi know about what you were asked to do?"
"No, no, no, City Lord, you misunderstood."
Chen Zhuo waved his hands frantically towards Mu Qing, and after catching his breath, he quickly said: "The thing you told me went very smoothly."
Mu Qing frowned slightly. He had only asked Chen Zhuo for one thing in the past few days. Seeing that it was not a mess, he breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Tell me, what made you so upset? I'm very curious. .”
"Uh... City Lord." Chen Zhuo was stunned, as if he was in a hurry and hadn't figured out what to say, "I..."
Mu Qing saw that he couldn't squeeze out a complete sentence for a long time, and suddenly had a bad feeling. He narrowed his eyes and looked at this guy up and down, "Is it related to me?"
Chen Zhuopang forced a smile on his face: "Hey, the city lord is really good at predicting things."
Mu Qing had a dark look on his face. Before he was about to take action, Chen Zhuo said quickly: "Actually, it's not a bad thing. Haven't I been interacting with those people from Ye City during the time you came back?"
"I heard them say that many of the architectural styles of Wangxue City were modeled after the original Juye City, so they sent people to go north to Wangxue City. These people just came back today."
Mu Qing nodded silently as he listened, and said sincerely: "Shopkeeper Chen, you are attentive."
"Hey." Chen Zhuo smiled and said, "Since it's something you specifically asked the city lord to do, how dare I slack off? If I couldn't leave, I would have gone north myself."
Mu Qing waited quietly for Chen Zhuo to finish and asked, "Then what happened? Is there something wrong with these people who came back from Wangxue City?"
Chen Zhuo carefully glanced at Mu Qing's face and said, "I sent people north to ask them to find a few craftsmen, but in the team that came back, besides the craftsmen, there were two more people."
"..."
Chen Zhuo suddenly stopped.
Mu Qing frowned slightly and glanced sideways at Chen Zhuo, "When did you like to only speak half of your words?"
Chen Zhuo sighed helplessly: "City Lord, I have to confess that I don't know the specific identities of these two people. They are a man and a woman, and their realms are much higher than mine, especially that young woman. I didn't know anything about Murong Jian. The pressure I felt was felt from her body.”
"The woman asked me to come to you and threatened me not to reveal their whereabouts to others."
"Oh?" Mu Qing's eyes moved slightly, and he took out a green jade card under Chen Zhuo's doubtful gaze. After a little induction, he quickly determined one thing - Gu Yinghe had actually come to Suzaku City.
Then the person next to her should be Gu Tong.
Mu Qing's eyes fell on the life card in his hand, recalling the strangeness three days ago, and nodded: "I know who the two are, don't be nervous."
Hearing this, Chen Zhuo recalled the appearance of the woman, looked at Mu Qing with a slightly strange look, and said: "City Lord, I guess that woman's realm is in the late stage of mortal transformation. Is it okay to let them stay in Suzaku City like this?" Would it be unsafe?"
Mu Qing shook his head: "If they are hostile, they will be discovered when they enter the city. Don't worry."
Chen Zhuo twitched the corner of his mouth, "That woman's temper seems a little bad, won't the city lord go back?"
Mu Qing chuckled and said, "That woman has always had such a temper, but it would be good to come to Suzaku City suddenly and let her cool off for a while so that she can calm down her temper."
Seeing that Mu Qing didn't seem to be planning to go back, Chen Zhuo sighed helplessly and had to speak bluntly: "City Lord, actually when I came to find you, Sect Master Murong and Miss Ye had already appeared nearby, and I didn't know... "
"Shua——"
A gust of wind blew up.
Before Chen Zhuo finished speaking, Mu Qing had already disappeared in front of him.
But the next moment, Mu Qing suddenly appeared behind Chen Zhuo, kicked him out, and warned: "Next time you don't find the point, I will sew your mouth shut myself."
Zhuque City, Mudleg Alley.
With the construction of more than a dozen alchemy houses in Wanhua Valley, Nijiuzi Alley has retained its name, but many of the messy and crowded places have been replaced.
The buildings disappeared, and the houses that were about to collapse were knocked down and turned into flat pieces of land.
Many of these lands have already been planned and are just waiting for reconstruction.
On one of the lands, some unique-style buildings have been capped and have complete structures.
In the future, this place will become the residence of people who migrated from Juye City.
At this time, in one of the most complete courtyards, Gu Tong looked at a certain room from time to time, feeling helpless.
Inside the house, Gu Yinghe sat on a wooden chair that had followed her southward. He exhaled a breath and slowly scanned the various furnishings in the house. He said, "I didn't expect to see people who were completely residents here." A Yecheng style house."
Murong Jing stood in front of a bud-yellow screen, admiring the pictures and text on the screen with her beautiful eyes, and nodded in praise: "The generous layout of the furnishings exudes warmth. This style does have its own characteristics."
Murong Jing turned sideways and smiled at Gu Yinghe: "If we hadn't sensed your aura, Xiaoyun and I might have had to wait a while before we knew this place."
Ye Yun walked around the house, sat down on the side, and rolled her eyes at her sisters, "When I came here, I realized that there are many people from Juye City nearby. They traveled all the way south, so the city lord's palace will not treat them badly. them."
Murong Jing smiled and said nothing.
In fact, when they arrived here, the two discovered that they had misunderstood someone.
Gu Yinghe glanced at the two of them thoughtfully, hummed, leaned back in the chair and asked, "Where's Mu Qing? I brought him the things I promised before."
Murong Jing looked outside the room and said seriously: "He should be at Linger's place. The Great Sun Sect is going to activate the spirit gathering array today."
Gu Yinghe's eyes moved slightly when he heard this, and he looked outside the house with some curiosity. Although he could only see the scene in the small courtyard, he seemed to see various scenes in Zhuque City. He sighed: "I heard those people in Zhuque City say this along the way. He has learned a lot, he seems to be a pretty good city lord?"
"Yes." Murong Jing nodded lightly, her eyes turning to fall on Gu Yinghe's pale face, "You should stay. After the injury gets better, you can look around."
Gu Yinghe knew that her injuries could not be hidden from the two girls, so she rubbed her brows and said, "I will leave after I deliver the things, and Gu Tong will stay."
Murong Jing and Ye Yun looked at each other and said, "Actually, we all remember what senior Wu Shan said, you...have something wrong with your cultivation?"
Gu Yinghe shook his head without changing his expression: "Practice is my own business. Don't worry, I won't..."
Ye Yun raised her slender eyebrows: "Don't get me wrong, we are only concerned about your injuries."
Gu Yinghe didn't want to say too much about this matter, "The power of the curse in my body has returned, but this is the price for me to escape from Gu Yun. I can wait until this power fades."
Ye Yun nodded and was about to speak when she heard Gu Tong in the yard respectfully call "Young Master". She suddenly became quiet and looked at Murong Jing with wide eyes.
"Crack, snap."
The footsteps in the yard were getting closer and closer to the house. Ye Yun had a trace of panic in her eyes and asked with her mouth: "What should I do?"
Murong Jing was also a little anxious, her eyes swept around the room.
Gu Yinghe took note of the changes in the two people's expressions, and felt quite amused in his heart, pointing to the screen behind Murong Jing.
"Creak."
Just when Murong Jing and Ye Yun secretly hid behind the screen, the door was opened.
Mu Qing stepped into the room with a tense face. The first thing he saw was Gu Yinghe sitting on the chair. He slowed down his steps and nodded. He quickly looked around the room and said, "Miss Gu, I didn't expect that." You will come to Suzaku City."
Mu Qing's eyes stopped on the screen and walked towards it. Behind the screen, it was empty at night, with only one unclosed window.
Mu Qing breathed a sigh of relief, walked up and closed the window, then turned and sat down on the chair next to Gu Yinghe.
Gu Yinghe watched Mu Qing's actions quietly throughout the whole process, and only then did he speak: "You guys are really interesting."
Mu Qing's mouth curled up
La, his eyes swept across the room, he was quite satisfied and said: "Everything about you in this small courtyard and this room is specially prepared for Qingyi."
Now Gu Yinghe felt a little uncomfortable. He sat up a little straighter and shook his head expressionlessly: "You don't have to explain this to me."
Mu Qing glanced at the screen, spread his hands and smiled bitterly: "You just exposed it, I have to explain it anyway, um... They were still a little embarrassed when they found out so early, but I believe they won't tell Qingyi of."
After Mu Qing finished speaking, he looked at Gu Yinghe.
Gu Yinghe sighed helplessly: "Don't worry, I won't tell Miss Bai. But this matter is my fault, and I never thought it would attract the two of them."
Mu Qing's gaze lingered on Gu Yinghe for a while, and then he quickly withdrew his eyes before Gu Yinghe frowned and said, "There was a change in the fortune card three days ago. Did Gu Yun attack you at that time?"
"Yeah." Speaking of Gu Yun, Gu Yinghe's eyebrows furrowed deeper and he glanced at Mu Qing, "Gu Yun was very afraid of the ancestor of Wushan's forbidden blood curse, but what you said at the time was also very effective. I I have to say thank you, otherwise I might be hurt more seriously."
Mu Qing was a little embarrassed, "I can feel your aura through the life card. If you want to thank me, you should thank Senior Wushan. Gu Yun is also afraid of him."
Gu Yinghe hummed, took out a storage bag from his sleeve and handed it to Mu Qing, "This is my ancestor's last confession. I brought everything."
Mu Qing took the storage bag and found that there was no restriction on it, so he scanned it with his spiritual consciousness and stayed for a moment on one of the cold jade boxes with an unusually strong seal aura. He quickly nodded and sighed: "Thank you for your hard work. . I didn’t expect you to even collect the essence and blood of the ancestral witch.”
Gu Yinghe's eyebrows moved slightly and he said calmly: "This is my ancestor's last wish, so I will naturally do my best."
Mu Qing took the things out of the storage bag and put them into his own storage ring, then returned the storage bag to Gu Yinghe and said, "Gu Yun didn't do it earlier because he didn't do it until later. He discovered what you did. ?」
"Yes." Gu Yinghe put away the storage bag, "There was a lot of noise when removing the ancestral witch essence and blood. Gu Yun told the whole clan about this, and he had a legitimate reason to take action against me."
"..."
Seeing Gu Yinghe talking about this matter calmly, Mu Qing was silent for a moment, glanced at Gu Tong who had been standing outside the house, and said seriously: "You and Gu Tong will stay in Suzaku City to practice from now on. You have heard about some recent events in Suzaku City."
"The aura of heaven and earth here is still getting stronger, Gu Tong can stay." Gu Yinghe stood up and said.
Mu Qing understood what Gu Yinghe meant and stood up, looking at her in surprise, "Are you leaving soon?"
"Well." Gu Yinghe walked towards the door, "The agreement has been completed, so naturally it's time for me to leave."
"Priest." Gu Tong heard Gu Yinghe's words and shouted at the door. He wanted to stop Gu Yinghe but didn't dare.
Mu Qing looked at Gu Yinghe's thin back, feeling helpless for this woman's character. He stood there and asked, "Where are you going?"
"..."
Gu Yinghe stood at the door, looking at the somewhat messy scenery in the small courtyard, and was silent for a long time.
Mu Qing walked up to her and pointed in the direction of the voices outside the courtyard, "Those people came to Zhuque City from Juye City. Counting them, they are also homeless. You guess they are happiest in Zhuque City." Where is the place?"
Gu Yinghe glanced at Mu Qing and had no intention of answering.
Mu Qing put his hands on his hips and said to himself, "It's the weather. It's late winter now, but the climate in Suzaku City has already reached late spring and early summer, so this city can accommodate many people who have lost their homes."
"A homeless person?" Gu Yinghe's eyes dimmed slightly, and the next moment his eyebrows wrinkled in pain, and his face quickly turned pale.
When Mu Qing turned to look at her, Gu Yinghe's vision went dark and he fell to the ground.
