The snow was still falling, the breeze was blowing, and the snowflakes were falling from the sky like feathers. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info the world is a white vastness, and the snow seems to swallow the heavens and the earth.
There are very few people on the streets, and there are very few people who come out to do business on such days, let alone hang out.
In the snowflakes, two figures slowly walked out of the street corner, and in the flying snow, the figures of the two looked as if they had come out of the snow.
Mu Chen stretched out his hand and pulled the velvet coat on his body, making it wrap tighter, at this time his head was already covered with snow, and his eyes still looked so empty and full of gloom.
Ning Yitian patted the snow on his velvet coat with his hand, looked at the vast expanse in front of him, and said leisurely, "This snow is really big"
Mu Chen also raised his head, looking at the snowflakes in the sky, his eyes couldn't help but narrow, and he smiled and said, "Yes, but although this snow is big, it can bring a lot of benefits" After speaking, he moved his gaze forward.
There are a few children playing happily in front of them, they look like a group of snowmen moving in the snow, and their laughter is full of innocence and joy.
When Mu Chen and Ning Yitian walked past them, their eyes never left the group of children.
Ning Yitian slowly, "This should be the first time they have seen snow in their lives."
Mu Chen nodded and said, "People are always a little excited when they see something they like for the first time."
Ning Yitian looked at Mu Chen, his heart was full of guilt, his eyes showed a look of regret, and he said slowly, "But you have been in charge of the southeast range for three years, but you still do your best for the beggars, why don't you get tired of it? I have long proposed that you walk around the rivers and lakes, and I don't want to give you these pressures, but you"
Before he finished speaking, Mu Chen interrupted Ning Yitian's words and said with a smile, "Get used to it, the helper fights for the Central Plains every day at the boundary of life and death, won't you get tired of it?"
Ning Yitian sighed and didn't speak, Mu Chen continued, "The helper is doing what he should do, and I am also doing what I should do, and I have had a very happy life in the past three years."
Ning Yitian didn't speak again, because he didn't know what to say, and he also knew how Mu Chen had spent the past three years. According to the rumors of other disciples, every time Mu Chen knew that the beggar gang was in trouble, he would go desperately, and after the matter was resolved, he returned to the tavern to drink without saying a word.
He drinks almost every free time, although he doesn't seem to care about anything, but he cares about his brother all the time, he never misses the affairs of the rivers and lakes, and he still has too many ties to retreat with peace of mind.
Before they knew it, they had already walked to the city gate, and they were about to leave the city.
Ning Yitian saw that Mu Chen was still walking forward without hesitation, so he said strangely, "Elder Mu, you are about to leave the city, where are you going?"
Mu Chen smiled and continued to walk, without answering Ning Yitian's question.
The two walked out of the city gate and continued to walk out of the city.
In the snow, a behemoth gradually appeared in front of the two of them, although it was far away, but it was already known that the size of this thing was very huge, but it was not clear in the snow.
The two of them continued to walk forward, and gradually, the behemoth revealed its true face, a huge locust tree.
At this moment, the locust tree is covered with snow, and there is no life in the book, and the whole tree looks like a tall building, although it is big, but it is lifeless.
Ning Yitian stepped forward and stroked the trunk of the tree, which was cold and dry, making people feel very uncomfortable to touch.
Ning Yi Tiandao: "What is Elder Mu doing here?"
Mu Chen looked around and said slowly, "Wait for my brother"
Ning Yitian said, "Do you come every day?"
Mu Chen looked into the distance, sighed, "Three years, it's worth it" and then put his hand to his mouth, blew a cold breath, and said, "Let's go, I won't come today"
The two turned around and walked back, and after walking a few steps, they heard the sound of horses' hooves behind them, and Mu Chen's heart was shocked.
Ning Yitian looked back, but unfortunately he couldn't hear or see anything except the sound of horses' hooves.
Ning Yitian said, "How can anyone rush on this snowy day?" After speaking, both of them involuntarily stopped, wanting to see what the fool who was rushing on this snowy day looked like.
Gradually, the sound of horses' hooves got closer and closer, and a figure appeared in the snow.
When Mu Chen saw this person, he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, and said, "Let's go"
Ning Yitian didn't move, looking at the figure that was getting closer and closer.
Mu Chen felt strange and looked at the figure as well.
The figure drew closer, and it was a medium-sized man, covered with a black cloth, as if he were a lonely knight.
The man rode past the two of them, and when he passed by them, he suddenly heard a roar of the horse, and the horse's body turned quickly, and the man had an extra sword in his hand at some point.
As soon as Mu Chen turned his head, the sword had already stabbed towards him, and the sword light flashed, and Mu Chen's chest was pierced by the tip of the sword, and blood flowed out.
The horse was also kicked down by Ning Yitian at this moment, and the person with the sword also fell to the ground.
The sword fell to the ground, and Mu Chen covered his chest with his hand, and there was a look of pain on his face.
The man hurriedly picked up the sword on the ground and put it on his neck, when suddenly a stone flew in the distance and hit the back of the man's hand, and as soon as the hand was released, the sword fell to the ground.
Ning Yitian hurriedly picked up the sword and asked, "Who are you?"
The man did not speak, his eyes were full of complaints, the corners of his mouth were bleeding, his eyes were closed, and he fell into the snow.
Mu Chen said, "He bit his tongue and committed suicide"
Ning Yitian didn't care about the dead man, looked at Mu Chen, and asked, "Are you okay?"
Mu Chen shook his head and said, "It's just a small injury, it's okay" After speaking, he looked at the locust tree and said, "Since you're here, come out."
As soon as the words fell, a person came out from behind the locust tree.
This person is a young man, and there is a hint of evil in his eyebrows.
Mu Chen smiled and said, "Your Excellency?"
The young man walked up to Mu Chen and asked, "Are you Mu Chen?"
Mu Chen nodded, and the young man laughed, "I thought Mu Chen was such a great character, but I didn't expect it to be a wine vat."
Mu Chen also smiled and said, "Then I don't know who Your Excellency is, are you interested in my wine vat?"
The young man looked at the man who had just died, and said with a smile, "Let you be strong, now that you are dead, you are happy."
Mu Chen asked vigilantly, "Do you know him?"
The young man took out a note from his bosom and handed it to Mu Chen.
Ning Yitian took it, opened the note, and immediately lost his voice and said, "Someone wants to kill you"
The young man smiled and said, "No, it's not someone, it's a group of people," and then pointed to the man on the ground, "Do you know who he is?"
Mu Chen shook his head, and the young man said, "He Chuiyang"
Mu Chen glanced at the dead man and said with a smile, "He Chuiyang, the earthly swordsman?"
The young man smiled and said, "Yes, do you remember a man you killed in Qingyun Mountain last month?"
Mu Chen thought back for a moment and said with a smile, "You mean that Bai Dutian who robbed the people's girls?"
The young man nodded, "Yes, Bai Dutian is the young master of Qingyun Village, that is, Bai Siqing's son."
Mu Chen asked, "Did Bai Siqing let them kill me?"
The young man said, "Yes, it's not just the chivalrous people on the rivers and lakes, you have provoked all the big and small sects to get together, and they want to get rid of you quickly."
Mu Chen smiled and said, "Then Your Excellency is also here to take my life?"
The young man touched his nose and said quietly, "One hundred thousand taels of silver, do you think I have a reason to refuse?"
