328 Seek mercy and be merciful
A breeze came from the northwest and gently swept the water, blowing the river. The boat gently rippled with the microwave, and the slight movement suddenly alerted the figure on the shore who was immersed in fist momentum. A flash of red light pierced the darkness, rolled up countless willow leaves, danced wildly across the water, turned into sharp blades, and rushed to the small boat in the middle of the river!
"It's me!" a shout of surprise rang out, and at the same time, the figure jumped from the boat in a hurry. As soon as he jumped into the air, the boat below slammed and turned into debris in the splashing water!
"Damn! You're really!" The figure in mid-air shouted again, and then the figure flickered, and rushed to the shore.
Shen Muzhi on the shore stared at that figure, but he had already recognized who it was. However, he doesn't plan to stop there. This person must have a purpose in such a haunting spirit.
So the red light swept back, and before the man could reach the shore, another sword stabbed him. The man had no choice but to intervene. However, before seeing how he moved, or seeing his flying sword appear, a moonlight suddenly fell from the sky and slammed into Shen Muzhi's jade sword.
Like a clash of gold and iron, with a bang, the beam of moonlight shattered instantly, but Shen Muzhi also clearly felt that his jade sword trembled.
This tremor gave the man a chance, and his figure flashed ashore.
Shen Muzhi looked at the figure more than a foot away, hesitated for a moment, and then waved his hand and took the jade sword back.
Although he didn't use all his strength with his sword just now, the person in front of him, who claimed to be Xu Yi, didn't even come out with a sword in a hurry, and directly attracted a beam of Yuehua to block his attack, and the power was not small, which was enough to make people vigilant.
If life and death really fight, Shen Muzhi really doesn't have much confidence when the injuries in his body have not healed now.
Not sure of things, he didn't want to take risks. Although the person in front of him is full of the word "underwhelming"!
"Brother Lin, you're a little angry!" Xu Yi stood not far away, and complained as he reached out to dust off the river water that had just been stained on the placket of his clothes.
Shen Muzhi frowned and grimaced. didn't mean to 'catch up' with him, and said directly: "Get straight to the point, you have been following me, what do you want to do!"
Xu Yi was stunned for a while, suddenly became displeased, shook his hand and said: "Forget it, you are too boring! Even if Lao Tzu is unlucky today, he wanted to go boating on the river and be a vassal for a while, but it turned out that the road was narrow, and the boat that Lao Tzu rented for ten taels of silver was gone...... Xu Yi said while turning around and leaving.
Shen Mu subconsciously wanted to catch up, but as soon as he took a step, he hesitated for a moment and then took it back.
He is not sure that he can take him down now, and there is no point in stopping him, if it attracts people from the Great Ming Sword Sect because of this, it will not be good.
After watching Xu Yi gradually walk away, Shen Muzhi didn't have the heart to continue boxing, so he also set off to Wushan City. In order to avoid repeatedly encountering Na Xu, Shen Muzhi made a special detour and entered Wushan City from another direction.
Back at the inn, Xuan Cheng sat in the lobby downstairs, with a wine jug and a wine bowl on the table. The bowl was still full of wine, probably untouched.
Shen Muzhi was not surprised to see him after entering. When he left, Xuan Cheng must have noticed it.
Seeing him come back, Xuan Cheng didn't say anything to him, and after simply saying 'rest early', he went upstairs. Shen Muzhi sat down at the table, took the wine bowl, drank all the wine inside, and then reached out to take the wine jug, wanting to fill it again. But as soon as I started it, I found that the flask was empty.
Shen Muzhi couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, Xuan Cheng rarely drank alcohol.
In an instant, the flask in his hand seemed to sink a little.
......
It was already half of the night, and it passed quietly in Shen Muzhi's complex and depressed mood.
The next day, Xu Ranran, who finally came to her senses, woke up very early, and Xuan Cheng took her to walk around the street and came back, just in time to meet Shen Muzhi who came out of the room. Shen Muzhi saw the things they were carrying, and suddenly thought of the things he bought yesterday, so he hurriedly took them out and gave them to Xu Ranran.
The little girl was so happy that when she looked up at him, the joy in her eyes almost overflowed. Shen Muzhi looked at her, and suddenly remembered Qingguo, and couldn't help but lose his mind.
Then, a delicate voice sounded, pulling his mind back again.
"Thank you, Uncle Junior!"
Shen Muzhi looked at her, raised his hand and rubbed her head, squeezing out a not-so-obvious smile at the corner of his mouth.
"You go back to the room first, and I'll talk to your little uncle about something. Xuan Cheng spoke beside him.
Xu Ranran nodded obediently, hugged a lot of things, and went back to the room by himself.
Xuan Cheng followed Shen Muzhi into his room.
After entering, Shen Muzhi was just about to ask Xuan Cheng when he planned to leave this Wushan City, but when he turned around, he found that Xuan Cheng had taken out a few bottles and cans and a stack of talismans and put them on the table.
He looked at Xuan Cheng with some puzzlement.
Xuan Cheng didn't look at him, lowered his head and looked at the bottles and cans on the table with a deep gaze, and said, "Those dragon's blood grasses, I have already made pills, you can save some use." This time I came out, it was too hasty, I didn't have much medicine on my body, I used some more in Yin City before, the rest is here, and there are some talismans, you can bring them. ”
Shen Muzhi was stunned when he heard this.
Xuan Cheng agreed to act separately?
At this time, Xuan Cheng raised his head to meet his gaze, saw his somewhat incredulous look, smiled bitterly, and said, "When you went out yesterday, I thought about it for a long time. There is some truth to what you say. Go if you want, but one thing you must remember is that your life is mine, and you must come back alive!"
Shen Muzhi was stunned for a moment, then nodded solemnly.
"I promise you, I will come back alive!"
Xuan Cheng stared at him, and after looking at him for a while, he didn't say anything, turned around and walked out.
Shen Muzhi opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say!
The man had reached the door, and suddenly stopped.
"I'll take Ran Ran to the empty mountain, and when you're done, come to the empty mountain to find me!" Xuan Cheng finished speaking, and opened the door and went out.
Shen Muzhi stood there, his emotions complicated and indescribable.
This was what he had always wanted to do, but now that Xuan Cheng agreed, looking at him like this, he hesitated.
However, Xuan Cheng didn't give him a chance to shake, or rather, Xuan Cheng didn't give him a chance to shake himself. Just when Shen Muzhi was still hesitating, he took Xu Ranran to pack up his things and quietly left the inn.
Shen Muzhi stayed in the room, and actually heard Xuan Cheng and Xu Ranran when they left the room, but he didn't expect Xuan Cheng and them to leave directly, he thought they were planning to go shopping on the street.
It wasn't until a long time later, when he was entangled in his heart and couldn't make up his mind, when he wanted to go out for a walk, he went downstairs and met Xiao Er, and when Xiao Er took out a letter to him, he suddenly reacted, and Xuan Cheng took Xu Ranran away.
Looking at the letter in his hand, Shen Mu's heart felt as if it had pressed a mountain, and it was difficult to breathe. Many emotions welled up in my heart, and guilt was the most common among them.
Ten years of dependence on each other, day and night, but now they are like this without saying goodbye.
It is he who seeks kindness and reaps benevolence.
But he felt uncomfortable.
Shen Muzhi opened the letter and glanced at it, and there were several pieces of paper in the letter, all of which were some news about Liu Guan and Daze. In addition, there is also a map of Daze, although it is not very detailed, but there are still some things that need to be paid attention to about Yunze Sect, which are clearly marked.
Some of the markings, the ink looks like new, probably from Xuan Cheng last night.
Looking at these, Shen Mu's heart became more and more uncomfortable.
After a long time, he came to his senses, and after carefully folding and putting away the letter, Shen Muzhi walked out of the inn.
At this point, he needs wine.
The restaurant he had been to with Xu Yi before, as soon as he entered, Xiao Er recognized him, and asked with a smile: "Childe, a pot of spirits?"
Shen Muzhi nodded, and then found an empty table at random and sat down.
The wine came soon, and when Shen Muzhi was about to drink it, a person suddenly came in from outside the door. He subconsciously looked up, and it turned out to be Xu Yi again.
After Shen Muzhi frowned, he immediately withdrew his gaze, as if he hadn't seen it, and continued to bow his head and drink his wine.
Xu Yi didn't seem to notice him, but Xiao Er, who came forward, reminded him and pointed to Shen Muzhi.
After Xu Yi glanced at it, he said to Xiao Er: "The same wine as him, come to a pot." When Xiao Er heard this, he looked at Xu Yi, and stopped talking.
Seeing this, Xu Yi frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"
Xiao Er hesitated and said, "That boy wants the strongest wine in the store!"
Xu Yi's face darkened for a moment, but he still said stiffly: "What's wrong with the strongest wine?
Xiao Er's face was sneering, and he wanted to persuade but didn't dare to persuade him.
"Go quickly!" Xu Yi saw that he didn't move, and he sank his face and scolded.
Xiao Er reluctantly left.
Xu Yi stood there, looked around the hall, and finally chose a position not too close to Shen Muzhi and sat down. When Xiao Er brought the wine, he was stunned for a moment when he saw that the two were not sitting together.
When Shen Muzhi heard that he asked for the strongest wine, his brows furrowed, and after watching the little second person deliver the wine to his table, he hesitated slightly, put a small piece of silver on the table, and got up to leave.
He was really afraid that when this person got drunk, Xiao Er dragged him and didn't let him go!
After he got up, Xu Yi glanced at him, and when he saw that he was leaving, he snorted, and then turned his head to drink his own wine. Seeing this, Shen Muzhi breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly walked out of the restaurant.
Because of Xu Yi's appearance, he had just tasted the pot of wine.
However, because of Xu Yi's agitation, his originally low mood was much better.
Pedestrians came and went on the street, and Shen Muzhi walked among them, and his mood gradually calmed down. After shopping for a while and buying some things that might be used in the future, Shen Muzhi went back to the inn, prepared a detailed plan for the next trip, and then set off after nightfall.
