Chapter 22: Twists and Turns1

In early autumn, it is the season of chrysanthemums, and in a garden full of colorful and intricate varieties of chrysanthemums, Mu Wen, dressed in ink-colored robes and carrying a green shadow sword, walks side by side with a young man in soft armor and a long sword.

When Mu Wen and the young man walked around a rockery in front of them, what caught their eyes was an unsightly and terrifying sight.

In the blooming chrysanthemum bushes, there is a man and a woman, the man is prostrate on the woman, moving regularly, there is no need to be suspicious, they are doing that kind of thing!

Although Mu Wen and the man and woman were still lying five or six meters away, and the man's face happened to be covered by the surrounding flowers, but just seeing the back of the man's figure, Mu Wen clearly knew that the man was his master!!

However, before Mu Wen reacted, Mu Wen only felt that a black shadow was quickly shaking in front of him, and the next moment, the Blue Shadow Sword in Mu Wen's hand had been drawn out of its sheath, and then, with the sound of sharp weapons piercing into the flesh and bones, a stream of warm blood splashed on Mu Wen's face.

When Mu Wen reacted, the man who was walking side by side with Mu Wen and the woman lying in the chrysanthemum bush were both dead of anger, and both of them were killed by a sword through the heart without exception!

After a long time, Mu Wen finally looked at the man who was dressed in a gorgeous costume and stood next to the woman who had long since died, his eyes moved down, the Qingying Sword belonging to Mu Wen in the man's hand, the blade was still as bright as new, but on the path paved with bluestone slabs pointed to by the tip of the sword, there was a small pool of blood, which was made of blood dripping down the blade!

Suddenly, the Qingying Sword was slowly raised, and Mu Wen's gaze slowly moved up with the Qingying Sword, when the Qingying Sword stopped moving, Mu Wen's gaze just met Yan Ziming's gaze, and at that time, Yan Ziming's eyes were indifferent.

Looking at the Qingying Sword that was pointed directly at his throat, and then at the person who raised the sword, Mu Wen heard Yan Ziming's indifferent voice: "What did you see just now?" ā€

Thoughts have been broken ever since. Mu Wen, who was standing in front of the gray curtain, was shocked, and a chill began to rise on his back.

The incident two years ago caused too much psychological shadow to Mu Wen, so much so that Mu Wen later sealed the Qingying Sword, which ranked thirteenth on the "Sword Spectrum". Instead, he replaced it with the three-foot green peak that he was using now, which was extremely ordinary and could be seen everywhere in the sword market.

This is also the reason why Mu Wen felt terrified when he saw Yan Ziming leaning over Leng Qing!

"The subordinates didn't see anything!" Mu Wen replied word by word. He swore he hadn't seen anything! It's just that I saw his master leaning down on Miss Leng! It's, it seems, he also saw Miss Leng with no clothes on her upper body......

"Really? Didn't you see anything? In the inner room, Yan Ziming's voice was very soft, and Mu Wen, who was standing in front of the curtain door, could barely hear what Yan Ziming was saying.

The white hands put on Leng Qing's underwear and tied the belt. Sitting up straight, Yan Zi Mingcai turned his head and said softly in the direction of the curtain door: "Come in!" ā€

Enter...... Get in?? Mu Wen felt that he was really frightened now! He's not going to think like he did two years ago!!

However, despite feeling frightened in his heart, Mu Wen still respectfully agreed, "Yes!" Father! Then Mu Wen lifted the curtain in front of him and stepped into the inner room with a generous and righteous heart.

Putting down the curtain, Mu Wen lowered his eyes all the way to the back of Yan Ziming, with a trembling appearance, and Mu Wen held the scabbard of his left hand with green tendons protruding, obviously using great strength. I don't know what he's nervous about.

General Muwen will stand behind Yan Ziming, and before Muwen can speak, Yan Ziming has already asked out loud: "You have already asked Ling'er to bring the news back?" I didn't let anyone see the bell! ā€

Hearing Yan Ziming ask about this matter, Mu Wen hurriedly gathered his mind and replied with a straight look: "Yes, master." ā€

Although Muwen's voice was the same as usual, deep down in Muwen's heart, there was still fear.

Nodding lightly, Yan Ziming wiped the sweat on his forehead for Leng Qing, and whispered word by word: "Ling'er is a red-feathered gold-tailed pigeon." Its shape resembles a pigeon, its body size is larger than that of a pigeon, and there are three red feathers on the top of its head, and its feathers are white. Its tail is pan gold, and it is the bird of the Tiancheng Continent that is rumored to be second to the mythical bird Phoenix. Since it is a bird second only to the sacred bird phoenix, its rarity and rarity can be seen.

It is rumored that the red-feathered gold-tailed pigeon flies extremely fast, and it only takes a cup of tea to reach a distance of thousands of miles. And very psychic, can understand people's speech, so, if you use the red feather gold-tailed pigeon as a carrier pigeon, any news is not afraid of delay. However, so far there are only a few articles about the records of the red feather gold-tailed pigeon, as for the training method of the red feather gold-tailed pigeon, there are only a few words, and so far there are very few people who have seen the red feather gold-tailed pigeon. ā€

Hearing this, Mu Wen immediately understood the meaning of Yan Ziming's words, and then continued: "What the master said, his subordinates understand. So the subordinates went to the high mountain behind the village, and when they summoned Ling'er, the subordinates made sure that they were not seen by anyone. At this time, Ling'er should have already returned to Wang Quan's side. ā€

"Hmm." Nodding lightly, Yan Ziming didn't speak again, and only wiped his sweat for Leng Qing.

Yan Ziming stopped talking, and Mu Wen didn't know what to say, just like that, for a while, the room was quiet.

There is a small window open on the west wall, the light in the room is a little dim, and on the warm kang under the wall lies the unconscious Leng Qing, and Yan Ziming, who keeps wiping his sweat for Leng Qing, sits next to the warm kang, and stands trembling half a step behind Yan Ziming, who doesn't even dare to come out of the atmosphere...... This scene, as well as the quiet atmosphere, really seems very strange.

"Bang!!" The sudden sound of knocking on the door, in this strange atmosphere, is tantamount to the sound of nature, at least for Mu Wen at this time, it is a natural sound.

Accompanied by this heavenly sound of knocking on the door, it was the amiable voice of Aunt Liu: "Little boy, breakfast is ready, come to the hall to have some food and then take care of this little girl!" ā€

"Got it, auntie!" The answer to Aunt Liu was Mu Wen, who had been silently speaking.

"Hurry up! Otherwise, the food will be cold for a while, but it will be uncomfortable to eat! Outside the house, the sound of Aunt Liu's reminder came into the house, and then there was the sound of light footsteps leaving.

Raising his eyes and secretly glanced at Yan Ziming, who was facing away from him, and hesitated again and again, Mu Wen still spoke: "Master! Let's go have some breakfast and take care of Miss Leng! You haven't slept all night, this morning I heard that Miss Leng fell ill, and I haven't even changed my wet clothes and have been taking care of Miss Leng until now, and I don't know if the cold poison will attack if you don't eat some breakfast! ā€

Fear is fear, but as a subordinate, Mu Wen will never turn a blind eye to Yan Ziming, who is the master.

"No need, you can go on your own!" With a faint sentence, Yan Ziming lightly dismissed Mu Wen's mention yƬ.

"Master ......" Mu Wen seemed to want to say something more, but Yan Ziming didn't let Mu Wen continue, he decisively interrupted what Mu Wen wanted to say: "Mu Wen, instead of standing here trembling and not daring to speak, it's better to go and eat with those two old people to relax!" ā€

Hearing this, Mu Wen was silent for a long time, and finally replied: "Yes, master!" ā€

"Pastoral! Put your sword down and go! This is not the black iron scabbard of your Blue Shadow Sword, and if you continue to hold it hard, this scabbard is afraid that it will break. Just as Mu Wen turned around and was about to leave, Yan Zi, who was still wiping Leng Qing's sweat, suddenly said something like this.

In this world, the most frightening thing may not be death, but that there is a person who can see through you, and it is 200% clear!! Because in the presence of such people, you will never have secrets. For example, at this moment-

Hearing this, Mu Wen suddenly stopped, looked down at his three-foot Qingfeng who never left his body, and it was only at this time that Mu Wen noticed that the left hand of his sword was already protruding from the back of his hand because he was too hard!

After being stunned for a moment, Mu Wen finally turned around and put the three-foot Qingfeng in his hand on the table opposite the warm kang, and then silently withdrew from the room where Leng Qing lived.

When Mu Wen walked out of the door of the outhouse and stood in this simple small courtyard, looking up at the blue sky, Mu Wen finally exhaled deeply, and his heart that had been hanging for a long time finally fell to the ground.

Looking down at his empty left hand, Mu Wen couldn't help but sigh in his heart: His master really saw him very thoroughly! It's good to have such a master, because he knows your thoughts, and at the same time it's terrifying, because he knows your thoughts, which will make you not even dare to have the slightest rebellious mind!

Clenching his left hand suddenly, Mu Wen walked towards the hall of Old Man Liu's house. However, he will never have the slightest rebellious mind against Yan Ziming!!

When Mu Wen stepped into the door of Uncle Liu's house, Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu were already sitting at the dining table waiting. Xiao can see clearly at a glance that on the small square table, there are three kinds of meat dishes like vegetarian dishes, four pairs of dishes and chopsticks are placed on the four sides of the square table, and there is white rice porridge in the bowl.

Aunt Liu, who was originally picking up her rice bowl and preparing to eat, saw that only Mu Wen came alone, so she asked out loud: "Why are you here alone?" What about the little boy surnamed Yan? Isn't he hungry? ā€

Trying to pull out a faint smile, Mu Wen walked to the table, sat down on the vacant seat opposite Aunt Liu, looked at Aunt Liu who was asking, Mu Wen replied gently: "My son-in-law is not worried about Miss Leng, and he refuses to leave, I will send the food to my son-in-law later." ā€

nodded, but Aunt Liu put down the dishes and chopsticks in her hand, stood up and walked outside the house, and said, "Then I'll go to the kitchen to get a clean plate, and I have to leave some food for your son-in-law!" ā€

"Thank you, auntie!" Mu Wen smiled lightly and agreed, and watched Aunt Liu leave. (To be continued.) )
