It is not easy to find out the news about the affairs of Moon City.

Shen Muzhi pondered for a long time and decided to go back to Lancheng first. The 'Holy Maiden' and her group that I met before may still be in Lancheng. Even if you're not there, you might find some clues.

After making up his mind, the hour was not early, and although it was not yet night, the sun was already setting in the west. After thinking about it, Shen Muzhi decided not to wait for night, and went out of the city first.

At the gate of the city, for some reason, everyone who left the city was stopped, lined up, and was questioned one by one.

Seeing this, Shen Muzhi was hesitating whether to take a 'shortcut', when there was a sudden quarrel in the back, and when he looked back, several Jianghu men surrounded a family of three, and while talking, they had already begun to push.

The man in the family of three tried his best to protect his wife and children, but he was just an ordinary person, and under the hands of these practitioners, it was still not helpful, and after a few strokes, he was pushed to the ground.

The child was frightened and burst into tears. The panicked cry suddenly attracted more passers-by, and it also angered these Jianghu guests.

Someone stepped forward and snatched the child from the woman's hand, covered his mouth mercilessly, and threatened: "If you cry again, Lao Tzu will kill your father!"

The child's face turned pale with fright, and he quickly shook his head to say that he would definitely not cry.

Next to him, the man who fell to the ground pounced and tried to snatch his child back, but before he could get close, he was kicked out.

This kick is not small, and it is merciless. The man fell back to the ground again, clutching his chest, and the whole person shrank in pain, and it seemed that he couldn't slow down the half-sound.

The woman slumped to the ground, looked at the child, and then at the man, who dared to act rashly, and only useless tears were left and fell down.

Shen Muzhi looked at this scene, squinted his eyes, and then turned his head.

In this world, bullying is everywhere. What if he helped the family of three at this time?

No, it won't!

On the contrary, as soon as he walks away, the family of three will be immediately stopped by these charlatans again, and then they will be bullied more seriously, and they may even die.

Shen Muzhi saved them for a while, but he couldn't save them for a lifetime.

Among the onlookers, there were sympathetic faces, but they were all motionless as if they had taken root under their feet, and none of them had the same thoughts as Shen Muzhi.

After Shen Mu sighed secretly in his heart, he turned around and prepared to leave.

At this moment, a familiar aura suddenly flashed outside the city gate. Shen Mu's heart was sensitive, and he couldn't help but pause under his feet, and looked up in the direction of the city gate.

I saw at the gate of the city, several people entered together, men and women, five or six people.

The leader was a middle-aged man and an old man, both of whom were acquaintances.

The middle-aged man, wearing a cloud-patterned robe on a blue background, is Yu Xin. The old man, dressed in a simple black shirt, was the same Hong Qi who injured Xuancheng at the beginning.

The men and women who followed them were naturally Lin Changying and others.

After Shen Muyi saw these people, he was suddenly startled in his heart, and hurriedly retreated and hid in the crowd of onlookers.

As soon as he dodged, Yu Xin suddenly looked up at the place where he was before, but after his eyes swept over, he didn't find anything, and after a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, he didn't pay attention to it.

At this time, in the crowd of onlookers, the few Jianghu guests seemed to have been relieved, and the man who was holding the child shook his hand and pushed the child, and the child staggered forward, and the woman was unexpected, and it was too late to reach out to hug it. The child fell to the ground, and the sound of his head slamming on the stone slab was particularly clear and loud. There was a bang, startling everyone around.

Everyone's eyes subconsciously fell on the child.

Including Shen Muzhi.

The child was lying there, motionless, and there seemed to be blood oozing from under the door of his head.

The woman knelt there, staring at the scene, her face pale as paper, motionless, as if she had been stupid.

The man who was kicked to the corner of his mouth and oozing blood crawled over with his hands and feet, scooped the child up from the ground, hugged him into his arms, and called out in a hurry and in a low voice: "Lingwazi, wake up! How are you?"

The child lay in his arms, his thin body, shaking with his hands, but there was never a sound. On the door of his head, blood gushed out of the hole, and his eyes closed as if they would never be opened again.

Shen Muzhi stood there, suddenly feeling a little flustered in his heart, and subconsciously wanted to raise his feet and step forward.

At this time, a person on the opposite side pushed away the onlookers-by, walked quickly to the man's side and squatted down, reached out and pinched the child's wrist, and after a while, he said to the man: "Don't worry, he just fainted." As he spoke, he reached out to check the wound on the child's forehead, and then said, "The wound is a little deep, it's best to find a Lang Zhong to take a look, so as not to leave a scar in the future!"

The man looked at the extraordinarily dressed woman in front of him in a daze, her obviously ordinary facial features, but because of that pair of sword eyebrows and starry eyes, she became different. Of course, maybe it's because of the kindness hidden behind her seemingly indifferent look.

And behind her, there was also a gaze at her at this time, looking at her in a daze.

Lin Changying realized something, turned her head and looked behind her.

I just swept my gaze and found nothing.

"Let's go!" Yu Xin's voice suddenly appeared, pulling Lin Changying's gaze back, and she quickly got up and left here.

After they walked away, Shen Muzhi stood up from behind a cart next to him, glanced at the direction they were leaving, and frowned slightly.

Yu Xin: What are they doing here?

Xu Yi, who claims to be a disciple of the Great Ming Sword Sect, is here, and now Yu Xin and Hong Qi are also here, near this Wushan City, what is the situation?

However, he had been walking around the city all day yesterday and had heard nothing.

Shen Muzhi thought for a moment, but he didn't think of any possible answers, so he simply left it behind. The most important thing at the moment is the matter of Moon City.

Thinking about it, he prepared to leave the city.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he looked up, he saw Xu Yi standing across the street, looking at him with a smile.

After Shen Mu was startled, he frowned, and hesitated under his feet.

Just when he didn't know for a moment whether to turn a blind eye or step forward to ask what was going on, Xu Yi on the other side suddenly turned around and left.

Seeing this scene, Shen Mu's heart was a little bottomless.

After thinking about it again, Shen Muzhi still decided to go out of the city first. Once you're out of town, find a secluded place and wait for a while to see if that Xu Yi will follow!

After thinking about it, Shen Muzhi immediately took a 'shortcut' out of the city, and after walking northwest along the Heishui River for a while, he stopped at a deserted river bay.

At the bend of the river, pine trees are overgrown.

Pine trees, straight and towering. It's almost April, and the pine branches are budding. The brittle buds, in the setting sun, are dyed a green and red color, which is very beautiful.

In the pine forest, there is silence.

The black water flows silently through the bay, and occasionally the wind passes through the pine forest, with a faint smell of pine, and then sweeps over the lake, rippling slightly, rippling layer by layer, fine and gentle.

Shen Muzhi found a position with a good view on the edge of the pine forest and on the bank of the river, sat down, and waited for the person who didn't know if he would appear in the twilight of the sunset.

Time passes slowly.

At some point, the surface of the river was dyed with a fiery red color. When the wind passes, it beats like a flame, which is extremely moving.

A small boat, swimming upstream, disrupted the rippling waves on the river.

Shen Muzhi raised his eyes to look at the figure on the boat, and his originally quiet mood suddenly became a little more dignified.

The man he was waiting for came.

The boat stopped in the center of the river.

The people on the boat, looking at the people on the shore, grinned, and said: "The sunset scenery on the Heishui River is one of the top ten wonders of the Ming Kingdom, do you want Brother Lin to come on the boat and take a boat with me to enjoy one of the ten wonders?"

Shen Muzhi looked at him, and after hesitating for a moment, his figure suddenly rose from the ground, his big sleeves spread out like geese, swept over the gorgeous lake, and landed at the stern of the boat.

Xu Yi looked up at him, suddenly laughed, and then turned around, leaving his back to him. The boat under him suddenly shot out like an arrow, leaving the center of the bend and speeding upstream.

On the horizon, the sunset burned a large area of the sky.

On the surface of the river, there is a red fire.

The boat is like an arrow, as if it is going to go day by day.

Shen Muzhi stood steadily at the stern of the boat, looking at the back of Xu Yi, who was less than three feet in front of him, and felt extremely strange in his heart.

I have to say that the sunset on the Heishui River is indeed very beautiful, the two of them went upriver by boat, and the sunset seemed to never end. However, the river has an end.

When the Heishui River made a turn and headed in the direction of Daze, the sunset gradually fell behind the two.

Looking at the gradually sinking sky ahead, the boat slowly stopped.

Eventually, it began to go with the flow.

Xu Yi turned around, swept his big sleeves, and suddenly there was a little shorter in front of him. On the low table, there are cups and pots.

A faint aroma of wine wafted out of the pot.

After Shen Muzhi heard it, he glanced at Xu Yi.

Xu Yi's face turned dark for a moment, and he said, "Don't worry, I will definitely not get drunk this time!"

Shen Muzhi was silent for a moment, and asked rhetorically: "Do you believe this yourself?"

Xu Yi was stunned for a moment, then his face darkened, and said: "There is so much nonsense, do you drink it or not? If you don't drink it, I will drink it alone!" As he spoke, he reached out to take the pot, ready to pour himself wine.

Seeing this, Shen Muzhi's eyes narrowed, and after a little hesitation, he held down the pot with his hand.

"Don't be in a hurry to drink the wine!" he said.

Xu Yi looked at him, and after a moment of silence, he took his hand back, and then said: "I know what you want to ask, I can answer you, but before answering your question, I want to know first, what is your name? After all, we are friends now, you can't even say your real name, right?"
