His thoughts were so pure, and because he was too young, it was rare for Mulo to feel afraid in a relationship...
Different from the fear that came from He Chaosheng who wanted him to do whatever he wanted, this fear... was based on emotions that were rooted too deep, and both sides would eventually suffer.
When He Chaosheng saw that Mu Luo was silent, he held his little hand alone and said, "Even if... I have a mole on my palm, do you still not like me?"
It's not that she doesn't like it, it's that she doesn't dare to go any further. She knows what the consequences will be.
In the natural tragedy, even this kind of simple dependence and emotion is wrong...
"He Chaosheng, we are not from the same world." Mu Luo covered his forehead and said, "It's better not to say these words in the future. I hope you don't have this mole on your palm."
He Chaosheng said nothing because Mu Luo was right. He was too young. Even if he learned a lot of knowledge, there would still be things he didn't understand.
He got up and left angrily. Before leaving, he pretended not to care and knocked over Mulo's sobering soup, which made Mulo suffer from drunkenness for a whole night.
The next day, the door of the General's Mansion opened, and He Chaosheng gave Mulo a token. With this token, Mulo could go anywhere outside Suzaku City...
He let her go, and Mulo didn't intend to stay, so he left Suzaku City with Egret.
However, she rode her horse and before she had walked a few steps out of the city, she saw the woman who had toasted at the banquet yesterday.
"Huh? Isn't this the distinguished guest of the young general?" The woman opened the curtain of the sedan with a smile and said, "What? Are you going to visit other countries? In fact... I already knew it."
Good guy, Mu Luo wanted to hear what this woman was thinking, so he kept silent.
The woman said very proudly: "You are very impressive, don't care about fame and wealth, and you travel to various cities. I think... you must be Tianshu's envoy, right?"
Good guy, your identity is doubled!
Mulo still smiled and said nothing. The egret in the basket looked eagerly outside through the gap. Mulo quickened his pace.
The woman quickly followed and said: "Miss Qianqian, don't be too outspoken. I am the deputy city lord of Xuanwu City. My name is Mianxiao. If I have this honor, can you please go and sit in Zhuque City?" Just sit down..."
Mulo glanced at Mian Xiao and thought that it would not be a loss to go to Xuanwu City. With Mian Xiao here, they would not lack a place to stay, so he said loudly: "Lead the way!"
Compared with Zhuque City's cornices and green tiles and red lanterns all over the streets, Xuanwu City is more like a modern city. The houses are square and square. Only the top floor has a symbolically overturned edge and is filled with green tiles. .
The lighting is a slender lantern-shaped lamp, similar to the candle lamps in Suzaku City.
"It's not too early today. I will arrange for you to stay at the nearest post house. Early tomorrow morning, I will take you to meet the city lord." Mian Xiao said with a smile.
Mu Luo rolled his eyes and said calmly: "Don't you thank me? Miss Mianxiao, I have been waiting for your thanks all the way."
"I...what do you mean by this, girl?"
"I know you didn't invite me here sincerely." Mulo said while leading the horse forward: "You didn't send the glass of wine out. You were afraid that your city lord would blame you, so you brought me back as a scapegoat. After all, you, the city lord, cannot kill the messenger of Tianshu... But with all due respect, if the deputy city lord is in danger of losing his head because of a glass of undelivered wine, then you, the city lord, are no good either."
Mian Xiao said nothing, as if she was afraid of something.
On the way to the post house, I passed by the vegetable market, where there were only a handful of stalls selling food, and there were also very few pedestrians on the road.
As he got closer, Mulo realized the reason. The Caishikou flagpole... was actually covered with human heads...
Fortunately, the weather is getting colder, so the smell won't be too unpleasant.
Mulo sneered and said teasingly: "You city lord... are very good at teaching the people."
"Those are the people who blatantly accused the city lord. To do so in the city lord's fiefdom is treason." Mian Xiao said calmly. When he arrived at the door of the post house, there was almost no one there.
Mian Xiao paid some money to the shopkeeper and said: "Actually, I'm glad you can come, Tianshu... I haven't set foot on the land of Xuanwu City for a long time. The people here feel that it is like this because of the young master." Got some dragon spirit."
"I will go back to see your city lord tomorrow. Today... I want to rest first." Mulo approached the post house without saying anything else.
After returning to the room, she put down the egret in the basket and breathed a sigh of relief.
"It seems... the situation in Xuanwu City is far more complicated than that in Suzaku City." Mulo tapped the table with his index finger and said, "I may not be able to deal with that city lord, so I might as well take advantage of the darkness and escape..."
[System: Is it really okay for you to run away like this? I feel like Mianxiao seems to have finally grasped a life-saving straw...]
"Oh, system, why have you become a great sage?" Muro said to the system: "A dog's life is at stake. Didn't you see those heads hanging at the market entrance? Do you want me to be called one of them?" "
[System: Of course I don’t want to, but my background shows that you have a mission here...]
Mulo spread his hands and said: "No, no, no, the hero is eight hundred meters away from here, how can there be a mission? Do you want me to increase my favorability from a distance?"
[System: Then I have nothing to do with it. The favorability is here. Do you want it or not? I won't load the task if I don't want it, so as not to occupy my memory. 】
"Ho ho ho, do you also have a memory stick? Are you sure it won't explode if you install these junk articles every day?" Mu Luo confronted the system, but to be honest, who can resist the attraction of earning points.
After all... the city lord of Xuanwu City may not dare to touch Tianshu's envoys, so the survival rate should be about 80%.
Okay, just risk your life and go meet that city lord.
"ah--"
Egret stretched out her hands towards Mu Luo, who immediately picked her up and coaxed: "I know, I know, thank you for your hard work, go to sleep..."
The next morning, before Mu Luo woke up, Mian Xiao had already been standing outside for a long time.
It wasn't until she heard the noise in the room that Mian Xiao knocked on the door tentatively and said, "Miss Qianqian, I'm here to pick you up. The city lord's mansion is nearby. Just change your clothes and follow me." …”
After getting up, Mu Luo simply washed up and put on the arrow sleeves that he took from He Chaosheng...
Inside the arrow sleeve, there are two knuckle-sized weapons. After being pulled out, they can be reduced to a usable size. The inside of the arrow sleeve looks like a sewing position, and there are three needles hidden. It can be said to be used for murder, arson, and robbery. A great artifact.
