After Shen Muzhi left the house, the night breeze blew, and the somewhat flustered mood suddenly calmed down. The inn was two streets away, Shen Muzhi looked at the quiet streets with no people on both sides, and walked quickly towards the inn.

As soon as he walked through a street, he turned a corner, and suddenly a cold aura came out from under a dark eaves on the side of the street, and went straight to Shen Muzhi.

Shen Muzhi's whole body was like falling into an ice cellar, a strong uneasiness hit his heart, and in an instant, his steps froze, and his right hand was immediately pressed on his waist, ready to throw out the only remaining wind and thunder ball at any time.

He turned his head to look under the eaves on the left.

A white-clothed figure quietly appeared under the eaves.

"Who are you?" said in an indifferent voice, with a condescending haught.

Hearing this, Shen Mu's heart was slightly relieved. Since she asked, it means that she has not yet realized his true identity.

After Shen Muzhi forcibly calmed down, he pretended to be surprised and shouted, "Miss He?"

He Jinyan, who was dressed in a white dress, stood quietly under the eaves, like a ghost, and his whole body was filled with a cold and cold atmosphere.

"Who the hell are you?" He Jinyan's voice sounded again.

"Miss He, don't you remember, in Xia Lin Xuan!" Shen Muzhi stood under the eaves opposite, looking at the figure opposite, trying his best to pretend to be innocent.

He Jinyan, who was covered with tulle, couldn't see the expression on his face clearly, but the pair of thin eyebrows like willow leaves were slightly frowned, and the slender eyebrows were slightly cold.

"You said before that I was like a friend of yours, your friend can't be from Qishi Town, right?" After a moment of silence, He Jinyan asked again.

Shen Mu's heart was shocked, it turned out that it was his nonsense words before that aroused the vigilance of this He Jinyan. At that moment, his mind changed sharply, and he hurriedly said: "Why did Miss He ask like this? My friend is from Baishui Town, but he has a bad fate and passed away three years ago. When I saw the girl today, the girl's temperament was very similar to that of my friend, so I lost my mind for a while and abruptly surprised the girl. I hope the girl doesn't mind, forgive me!" Speaking of this, Shen Muzhi paused for a moment, and then continued: "Actually, it was not the first time Lin had seen a girl at the door of that house before. I don't know if the girl still remembers that in the evening before, Lin had seen the girl once. At that time, Lin was upstairs in the fun tea, and the girl was on the street. ”

He Jinyan was not surprised by the first meeting mentioned by Shen Muzhi, obviously she had not forgotten the look between the two at that time. And Shen Muzhi's active mention at this moment seemed to dispel part of He Jinyan's vigilance, and after looking at Shen Muzhi with a cold gaze, he asked again: "What is the relationship between you and General Shen?"

"Lin has helped solve some troubles. In fact, this was a gesture, and Lin never thought of blackmailing Entu, but General Shen Gao Yi has always taken this matter very seriously and treated Lin very politely. Shen Muzhi's words were half-concealed, as if he was saying that he didn't plan to get too close to Shen Wei and them, but to others, it seemed that he was deliberately holding it to confuse Shen Wei and make him feel that he was worth wooing.

Sure enough, He Jinyan should have thought the same thing, and after staring at him for a while, he suddenly moved his feet, retreated into the darkness under the eaves, and then disappeared.

The cold aura that had been enveloping Shen Muzhi's body also disappeared.

Shen Muzhi waited for a while, and after not seeing any movement, the heart that had been in his throat was finally put down.

Judging from the conversation just now, although He Jinyan was a little vigilant, he should not have seen his true identity. Otherwise, she would definitely have shot directly just now, instead of tempting.

Shen Muyi thought as he walked briskly towards the inn.

When I arrived at the inn, Qingguo was chatting downstairs with the inn's equally young second. Xiao Er seemed to be talking about something interesting, Qingguo smiled happily, giggles echoed in the lobby downstairs, making the dim candlelight seem to be a little brighter.

Seeing Shen Muzhi coming in, Qingguo immediately threw down Xiao Er and greeted him: "Brother Muzhi, you are finally back." Wang Qi told me a joke just now, it's so funny, do you want to listen to it?"

After Shen Muzhi heard this, he glanced at Xiao Er, who was standing not far away. As soon as the latter saw Shen Muzhi, he seemed very restrained, and even a little scared, standing there, lowering his head, not daring to look at Shen Muzhi.

In fact, in terms of age, this junior is probably a few years older than Shen Muzhi. But Shen Muzhi is wearing a mask, and his figure is even taller than that of ordinary adults, on the surface, he is about twenty years old now. In addition, Shen Muzhi has been practicing martial arts all year round, and he has the power of a person who has practiced martial arts, and the life and death experience in the past few months has made this power a little more solemn. If it was also a person who practiced martial arts, or a monk on the mountain, when facing Shen Muzhi, he might not feel this momentum on his body deeply. But for a young man who has walked the farthest from childhood to adulthood in a small mountain village that is only more than 20 miles away from Anding City, he may not know what this momentum is, but he will definitely feel it very clearly. It is an instinct for the perception of danger engraved in the human soul.

However, Wang Qi's nervousness about Shen Muzhi did not make him care. Shen Muzhi glanced at it and withdrew his gaze, looked at Qingguo in front of him, and his gaze instantly softened: "Save it and tell me later." You go pack up your things first, we're going to change places. ”

Hearing this, Qingguo blinked his eyes and asked, "Is it the house you went to before?"

Shen Muzhi nodded: "Yes." ”

After Qingguo heard this, he immediately went upstairs to clean up. Shen Muzhi was also about to go upstairs, and just walked to the staircase, when he suddenly thought of delivering the letter, turned his head to look at Wang Qi, who was still standing in place, and shouted: "Wang Qi?"

Wang Qi's body trembled slightly, and he hurriedly responded: "Yes." What do you command?"

"Do you have pen and paper?" asked Shen Muzhi.

"Yes. I'll go get it. After Wang Qi finished speaking, he went to the backyard as if he was fleeing.

Shen Muzhi looked at the panicked appearance and smiled bitterly.

Wang Qi quickly took the pen and paper, and after Shen Muzhi took it, he went upstairs and returned to the room, and then opened the package that he had brought all the way from Qingshi Town. In addition to some clothes, there is also a practice note sent by Xuan Cheng. Since he wants his father to arrange for someone to deliver the letter, he has to find some tokens for Xuan Cheng to make him believe that he sent the letter.

This practice notebook should be the best token.

After Shen Muzhi put this practice notebook aside, he picked up his pen and prepared to write a letter. It's just that when I was about to put pen to paper, I suddenly had some hesitation in my heart.

In order to save him, Xuancheng's senior brother Master Xuantong unfortunately passed away.

Now, for the sake of his eldest brother's safety, does he want to involve Xuan Cheng in this big trouble that I don't know how many people are involved?

However, if he didn't ask Xuan Cheng for help, it would be difficult for him and Qingguo, as well as his father and others, to protect his eldest brother.

He Jinyan, he was already completely sure that it was the woman who almost killed him in Strange Stone Town.

The Heart Devouring Pill he ate at the beginning, those Gu poisons, although they are now temporarily banned by Brother He Xian, if this woman sacrifices that golden bell again, it is hard to say whether the Gu poisons in his body will break free from Brother He Xian's forbidden means. In case he breaks free, he will not be able to protect himself, let alone protect his eldest brother. When the time comes, Qingguo alone will be able to protect the eldest brother, and let Qingguo fight with this woman?

Thinking of this, he suddenly remembered that in the mountains and forests, he watched the wound on Qingguo's chest continue to gush out blood, and he couldn't hold it down, the kind of powerlessness, panic, and self-blame at that time...... That kind of emotion is still in my heart, just thinking about it, I still have palpitations.

He didn't dare to imagine what would happen to Qingguo if he lost his life in front of his eyes!

After a few thoughts, Shen Muzhi took a deep breath, and the pen in his hand finally fell on the paper.

Soon, after the letter was written, Shen Muzhi clipped the letter into the practice notebook, and then found a piece of cloth and wrapped it. After doing this, Qingguo just packed up and came to the door.

Shen Muzhi picked up the package and walked out.

"Let's go. He glanced down at the pretty green fruit and said with a smile.

Qingguo snorted and reached out to grab his sleeve.

The two went downstairs, and the second little Wang Qi was standing by the counter, looking towards the stairs, and when he saw the two coming down, he hurriedly took two steps forward, as if he had something to say. It can be seen that Shen Muzhi turned his head to look at him, and when the words came to his mouth, he suddenly choked again, lowered his head nervously, and hesitated for a while, but he didn't say a reason.

"You don't have to get a refund. Shen Muzhi thought he wanted to talk about the house money, so he said. After speaking, he took Qingguo and walked out of the door.

Behind his back, Wang Qi secretly raised his head and opened his mouth, but he still couldn't speak.

At this time, Qingguo, who was about to walk to the door, suddenly grabbed Shen Muzhi, raised his head and asked, "Wang Qi said, there is a temple fair at the City God Temple tomorrow, can I go with him tomorrow?"

Shen Muzhi looked at Qingguo and was a little surprised. It was the first time she had been so close to a human other than him.

After being stunned, Shen Muzhi, who came back to his senses, nodded and responded.

Qingguo laughed, and then turned his head to look at Wang Qi, who was still struggling with whether to speak: "I'll come to you tomorrow." ”

Wang Qi immediately laughed and replied loudly: "Okay." It's just that as soon as the words fell, at a glance, he saw Shen Muzhi standing next to Qingguo's eyes narrowed, the smile on his face suddenly disappeared, and he hurriedly lowered his head.

"Let's go. Shen Muzhi didn't say anything, and left with Qingguo.

In the cold night, the alley was so silent that only the footsteps of two people remained.

Shen Mu's heart was curious, and he couldn't help but open his mouth to break the silence and ask Qingguo: "You seem to be a little different from this Wang Qi. ”

Of course, in addition to curiosity, he also had an emotion in his heart that he couldn't explain.

It's just that this emotion was subconsciously ignored by him.

Qingguo turned his head, and in the night, a pair of bright eyes, after staring at him for a while, he grinned slightly: "Is my brother angry?"

"Nope. Shen Muzhi flatly denied it.

"If my brother doesn't like me going to the temple fair with him, then I won't go. Anyway, I don't have to go, I'm just curious. Qingguo blinked, not displeased, but those joys overflowed from the corners of his eyes.

Shen Muzhi shook his head again and denied: "I'm not unhappy, I'm just a little curious." ”

Qingguo didn't answer immediately this time, and after staring at his side face for a while, he retracted his gaze, looked at the darkness in front of him, and said leisurely: "Wang Qi's eyes on me are different from others. ”

Shen Muzhi glanced at Qingguo in surprise: "Why is it different?"

Qingguo replied: "I can't say the specifics, it's just different." Of course, brother, you don't belong to the others I'm talking about. Saying that, Qingguo laughed again, turned his head to meet Shen Muzhi's gaze, and his crystal eyes were bent into two crescents: "In this world, my brother is the only one for me." Always. ”

Shen Muzhi looked at her, and the heartbeat in his chest suddenly seemed to skip a beat at this moment.

"You ...... too," he muttered involuntarily.

Qingguo was slightly stunned, and then the smile on his face was like a flower, blooming in an instant, and in the dimness, it was still bright and beautiful.
