299 Life is hard

When Xuan Cheng mentioned these three words surnamed Liu for the first time, Shen Muzhi immediately realized who he was referring to.

Eleven years ago, Shen Muzhi's originally peaceful life became hell and nightmare overnight. After several lives and deaths, struggling all the way, in the end, I found that everything was just a game of chess manipulated by someone.

Over the years, Shen Muzhi and Xuan Cheng have been secretly inquiring about Liu Guan's news, but unfortunately, after Liu Guan fled in the Jin Kingdom eleven years ago, he disappeared and there was no news of him.

Unexpectedly, now that I am here, I have met Liu Guan's people.

Shen Muzhi didn't care to wonder how Xuan Cheng concluded that these people were Liu Guan's people, and at this time, his life was still in the hands of the woman next to him!

The woman stared at Xuan Cheng, who was approaching step by step, and the nervousness on her gloomy face became stronger and stronger.

"If you come here again, I'll kill him!" Finally, she couldn't help but shout. The long sword resting on Shen Muzhi's neck slammed into Shen Muzhi's neck. In an instant, blood seeped out.

After Xuan Cheng glanced there, the wind suddenly rose in the alley.

"Let him go, and I will spare you from death. Xuan Cheng stopped and shouted coldly.

Unexpectedly, as soon as his voice fell, the woman suddenly looked at him and giggled: "If I let him go, I really can't get out of this alley!"

Xuan Cheng frowned, the murderous intent on his body suddenly became a little thicker, and he moved under his feet and took another step forward.

Seeing this, the woman grabbed Shen Muzhi and took two steps back. The man next to him also stepped back.

"Why don't you answer me a few questions, and as long as the answers satisfy me, I'll let him go, how about that?" said the woman with a smile. At this time, there was no previous nervousness in his eyes, but a little more arrogance.

"You let him go first, and I can consider answering your questions. Xuan Cheng replied as he took another step forward.

The woman watched, her feet didn't move, but the hand holding the long sword trembled slightly, and the blood in Shen Muzhi's neck suddenly increased.

"People are timid, and if the son gets too close, people will be nervous. This nervousness, the hand will tremble! This hand trembles, if this brother is injured by mistake, it will not be good, Childe, don't you say?" The woman looked at Xuan Cheng, and under her coquettish smile, there was a cold and ruthless killing intent.

Xuan Cheng narrowed his eyes, but he didn't continue after all.

At this time, Shen Muzhi, who had not spoken since Xuan Cheng appeared, suddenly blinked at Xuan Cheng.

After Xuan Cheng saw it, he immediately understood.

"What do you want to ask?" Xuan Cheng took a step back.

When the woman saw Xuan Cheng suddenly give in, she didn't relax, but looked at Xuan Cheng with a little vigilance, and then asked, "You killed the demon beast outside the city?"

Xuan Cheng shook his head directly.

Seeing this, the woman frowned slightly, and then asked, "Who is that?"

Xuan Cheng replied: "People from the Zhengyang faction." I don't know exactly who it is. ”

When the woman heard this, she snorted: "Even those few wastes of the Zhengyang Sect can kill that demon beast?" you lie!" she said, and the hand holding the long sword shook again.

At this moment, Shen Muzhi suddenly raised his hand and slapped his palm on the long sword. The woman was caught off guard, and when the long sword flicked away, a ball of fire in Shen Muzhi's other hand suddenly exploded.

There was a loud bang on the ground, and the bright firelight instantly illuminated the night, rising from the empty alley and quickly fading. However, this moment of effort was enough for Shen Muzhi to get out of danger.

In the darkness, Xuan Cheng took Shen Muzhi and quickly flew over those rooftops, and finally fell into a deep alley not far from Changxi Street, and after making sure that the woman did not follow, Xuan Cheng took Shen Muzhi to Renxin Hall.

When he arrived at the Renxin Hall, Xuan Cheng first treated the wound on Shen Muzhi's neck, and then relieved the poison on his body, and after doing this, after making sure that Shen Muzhi was fine, the two sat down to talk about what happened just now.

After Shen Muzhi first told him how he met the three people, he asked Xuan Cheng: "How do you know that those people are Liu Guan's people?"

Xuan Cheng replied: "That man has a token given by Liu Guan on his body. Moreover, the incense used by the woman is only made by Liu Guanhui. ”

Speaking of incense, Shen Muzhi frowned. When the woman released the incense, he obviously covered his mouth and nose in time and did not inhale, but he still got hit, which is really a bit incomprehensible.

He asked Xuan Cheng, who had not seen the whole process with his own eyes, and it was not easy to judge. However, Xuan Cheng also said that the reason why Shen Muzhi would fall so easily was also related to his special physical condition in the past few days. If it was a normal situation, Shen Muzhi shouldn't even know what he was doing. Moreover, although the incense is very effective, it is not without a way to deal with it, Xuan Cheng has a medicine in his hand that can detoxify it.

It's just that this time, the people of Yun Ze Sect suddenly appeared in Lancheng, and it seemed that they were still coming for the demon beast outside the city, and their motives had to be worried.

Since Liu Guan lost his news eleven years ago, this Yun Ze Sect has been very low-key over the years, and he has almost never heard the name of Yun Ze Sect outside Daze again. But now, this Yunzezong saintess suddenly appeared outside Daze, it seems that Yunzezong, or Liu Guan, is finally going to be unable to hold her breath?

I don't know what game of chess Liu Guan wants to play next this time?

Shen Muzhi thought of this, suddenly turned his head to look at Xuan Cheng, and said, "Why don't you go to Daze for the next stop?"

When Xuan Cheng heard this, he glanced at Shen Muzhi in surprise, then frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice: "In Daze, the environment is harsh, there are all kinds of demons and monsters, and your current physical condition has passed, it is too risky." ”

Xuan Cheng's concern is indeed true. Shen Muzhi may break through the realm at any time now. When the realm is broken, the cold qi in the body will inevitably come out to make trouble, even if there are a lot of dragon blood grass in their hands now, which can suppress the cold qi, but when they break through the realm, it is a critical moment, and there is no room for mistakes, not to mention that this is still the case. And even if you break through the realm successfully, the cold will still attack on the fifteenth day of every month. After the seizure, you cannot use your spiritual power for three days. This situation, in the crisis-ridden Osawa is indeed more dangerous.

The most important thing is that they also have to carry a Xu Ranran.

Xu Ranran is only a six or seven-year-old girl, except for being more skinny than ordinary girls, she has no cultivation. Such a child, if he goes to Daze with him, just the harsh natural environment is enough to make that girl eat a pot.

And although Xuan Cheng is already an Upper Realm cultivator and protects himself, with the two of them dragging oil bottles, it is indeed difficult to guarantee that nothing goes wrong if there is any situation.

However, for Shen Muzhi, the enemy who had disappeared for eleven years suddenly heard from him again, and his mood could not be said to be uneager. Moreover, now, he is no longer the ant that can only be slaughtered by others, even if he still can't confront Liu Guan head-on, but be careful, find out some news, and find out the truth can still be done.

For Liu Guan, he didn't just want to kill him.

At the beginning, he was forced by him, cornered, and desperate for a while. This kind of taste, he also wanted him to taste.

Qingguo's hatred, for so many years, he has never mentioned it. It's not that he doesn't want revenge, it's not that he forgot. It's that he knows that he doesn't have that strength. But now, he can do some things, and he also has news of Liu Guan. This thought, once moved, can easily be suppressed.

On the side, Xuan Cheng saw that he didn't answer, so he knew what he was thinking. After sighing secretly, he said: "In this case, let's find a safe place first, and after you break through the realm, we will go to Daze." ”

Shen Muzhi shook his head at this moment.

Seeing this, Xuan Cheng frowned slightly.

Shen Muzhi looked at him and said, "Over the years, I've always been dragging you down. With your natural qualifications, you could have lived a chic life, but I was the one who caused you. ”

Xuan Cheng's brows suddenly furrowed, staring at Shen Muzhi, and said in a deep voice: "What are you doing all of a sudden!"

Shen Muzhi smiled at him.

Xuan Cheng looked at the smile that appeared for the first time in ten years, and his heart was not good.

"I warn you, don't want to go to Daze alone!" Xuan Cheng lowered his face and scolded sharply.

Shen Muzhi nodded without hesitation and agreed: "Okay." ”

But Xuan Cheng looked at it, but he was so uneasy. Shen Muzhi is not a sensational person, he suddenly said this just now, and even smiled at him, this is not like him at all.

As the saying goes, when things go wrong, there must be demons.

Shen Muzhi suddenly seemed to be a different person, there must be a problem.

After pondering for a while, Xuan Chengtu said to Shen Muzhi: "I knew a little bit about Su Hua from Yu Xinna before, do you want to know?"

Shen Mu was stunned, and immediately asked, "How is she?"

Xuan Cheng looked at him and said, "You promised me that I wouldn't sneak away to Daze alone, then after you successfully break through the realm, I will tell you how Su Hua has been doing in the Great Sword Gate over the years." ”

When Shen Muzhi heard this, he couldn't help frowning.

Then he hung his head and sighed, "Why are you doing this!"

Xuan Cheng suddenly became angry and scolded: "Do you think I don't know what you're planning? Let me tell you, I finally rescued you, and your life is mine! It's mine, do you understand! If you want to die or live, you have to go with my permission! Without my permission, you dare to leave me for half a step, you can try?"

Shen Muzhi raised his eyes to look at him, Xuan Cheng was in front of him, almost never so out of shape.

He knew what he was thinking, but, after eleven years, now that he could do something slowly, he really didn't want to wait any longer!

It's just that these words, after circling around in his mind again and again, he finally retreated: "I promise, I won't leave secretly, okay?"

His promise did not make Xuan Cheng immediately discouraged, and after snorting, he shook his hand and went to the front.

Shen Mu sat in the patio, looked up at the dark night sky, and after a moment of silence, he took a pot of cloves from his fingers and drank it slowly.

Life is like wine, and under the seemingly sweet surface, it is actually bitter.

Life and death parting is suffering,

It is also bitter to ask for but not be able to get it.
