Chapter IX: Assault

A group of people waited and waited, and two or three hours had passed. The thunderstorm outside was getting quieter, but it was still gray.

"It's raining for too long, and now it's time, so I can only stay here for one night tonight." Li Hongzhong said helplessly, so he ordered his subordinates to tidy up some places where they could rest.

Fortunately, although this Guanyin temple is dilapidated, it is relatively spacious. It should be no problem to accommodate more than ten or twenty people. The big guys each ate something, so they closed their eyes and rested in the chosen place, and there were 2 to 4 people next to the door outside the door, who were in charge of guarding.

"Is it still cold? Do you want Chen An to come over with the blanket in the car? Mo Chen watched Ye Xiaomu's face begin to recover, and there was also some blood. But his hand was still holding Ye Xiaomu's petite body, reluctant to let go.

Ye Xiaomu moved his body, feeling that his body was slowly recovering now, so he slowly moved out of Mochen's arms.

"I'm much better, I'm sorry for you, Brother Mo." Ye Xiaomu said embarrassedly.

"I still have a Protector Pill here, your ability is low now, eat it to strengthen your physique." As he spoke, he poured out a red pill from a small jade bottle in his arms.

"This medicine must be expensive, right? I'm fine, just take a break, you can keep it for yourself. Ye Xiaomu was surprised every time he saw something Mo Chen took out. I thought: This guy, there are a lot of good things! But if you take too much, you feel embarrassed, after all, you haven't known each other for a long time. I was also very moved.

"Be good, obedient! I have a lot of this kind of pill at home, so I will give you something, you don't have to be polite to me. We're friends! As he spoke, Mo Chen smiled and handed the pills and water to Ye Xiaomu.

"Okay, thank you, Brother Mo" Ye Xiaomu looked at Mo Chen's expectant eyes, and it was not easy to shirk it anymore, so he took it and ate it. As soon as the medicine pill was entered, it felt like the bones of the whole body had been replaced, and the whole person felt a little indescribably relaxed. If Ye Xiaomu looked closely at his right palm, he would definitely find that the lotus imprint there was faintly visible.

Li Hongzhong looked at the red Protector Pill that Ye Xiaomu ate with wide eyes, and swallowed his saliva. I thought: This Protector Pill is not as simple as enhancing your physique, it is simply a Divine Pill! Those who have broken hands and feet and broken meridians, as long as they eat this, within a week, they can repair all the broken hands and feet meridians, and this red protector pill can also rebuild the bones of ordinary people, and some people who have no spiritual power can also cultivate immortals. It's hard to find! Besides, this red elixir is a first-grade elixir, and only Mo Zhiqiu, the old Dan King of the Water Kingdom, has the ability to practice it. Even the lord of their water country only had 3 orange second-grade ones and a green four-grade protector pill, and Mo Chen actually said that there were many of them at home. This person is too terrifying, oh my God~ It is rumored that Mochen is a closed disciple of King Dan, it seems to be true~ The gap between people is too big. Shall I be nice to him?? Maybe you'll give me a 5-grade Protector Pill. Alas~~ Forget it, we can't lose the face of our Muguo, don't we still have Muzun, and legend has it that Muzun has a talent for making medicine in every generation. When Xiaomu recovers his ability, I'm afraid I won't be able to ask for it.

Li Hongzhong was still crooked on the side after Mu Zun recovered his ability.

"Be careful, someone's coming." Ink dust suddenly became serious. With a wave of his hand, he blocked several arrows in front of him. The arrows fell like they hit an iron wall.

"What?" Before Li Hongzhong could react to anything, he saw one of the long arrows pierce the chest of one of the guards guarding the door.

Everyone in the temple stood up and gathered around the people behind, and several blue-faced people dressed in black broke in, all holding weapons in their hands.

"Hand over the little bit in the back, and let you all die." The man in black pointed at Ye Xiaomu and said.

"Then it depends on whether you have the ability to do this?" Mo Chen sneered and stretched out his hand, the arrow on the ground was sucked back into his hand, and then he swung it out, killing several black-clothed people who were rushing forward.

"Don't be afraid, with me, no one can hurt you." Mo Chen pulled Ye Xiaomu's nervous and sweaty hands to comfort him.

Ye Xiaomu's adaptability is quite strong, and he comforted himself: This is the second time I have seen this situation, it's nothing. The important thing is to protect yourself, otherwise you will hang up before you go home.

In the dark night, there was a piercing sound of sword friction and collision, and Ye Xiaomu and Li Wei had no kung fu or spiritual power, so they could only hide next to Li Hongzhong and Mo Chen. Chen Ping and Chen An were right in front of Mochen and them, blocking the rushing assassins.

"Who the hell are these people? Why kill us? Li Wei asked uneasily.

"Do you see what's around their waists?" Li Hongzhong said.

"Waist?" Only then did Li Wei notice that each assassin had various black bug waist tags hanging around their waists.

"Hundred~Hundred~Hundred Insects~". Li Wei was so frightened that he hurriedly grabbed his uncle's arm.

"What is the Hundred Worms Sect? Why scare like this. Ye Xiaomu asked nervously when he saw Li Wei frightened like that.

"The Hundred Worms Sect is a branch of the Demon Race, headed by their elder: Oni Poison. Because they specialize in the poison of the hundred insects, they are called the Hundred Insects Sect in the rivers and lakes. These green-faced people who are here now are just some low-level little Lou Lou, who are testing our strength. Mochen patiently answered.

Fortunately, Li Hongzhong brought a few Jianghu people with relatively high ability and some of his right-hand men. In the end, the people of the Hundred Worms Sect were defeated, only one escaped with injuries, and the rest all died.

"It seems that the demons already know about Mu Zun." Li Hongzhong said uneasily.

"What then?" Li Wei asked.

"Will the people of the future be more profitable than the present?" Ye Xiaomu nervously pulled Mochen's clothes.

"Don't worry, the people from the Five Elements Hall are already on the way, and they should arrive in a day or two." Mo Chen helped Ye Xiaomu to sit down.

"You already knew?" Li Hongzhong looked at Mo Chendao.

"Then you don't shy away from it at all? cough~~" Li Hongzhong looked at Ye Xiaomu and saw that she didn't understand, but he was relieved.

I thought: You are clearly trying to kidnap our Muzun. If you want to be beautiful, I won't let Mu Zun know that you know. Now she still thinks you're a brother, hehehe~

"What I'm going to do, no one can stop me!" Mochen replied domineeringly.

"Okay~~You force you to call the shots~~" Li Hongzhong pulled Li Wei to sit down and rest again.

As soon as dawn dawned the next day, a group of people set out. Ye Xiaomu still wanted to get in the car to catch up on sleep. I can't help it, I didn't dare to sleep too hard last night. When he got up in the morning, Li Hongzhong was afraid that Ye Xiaomu and Mochen would have feelings for each other for a long time, so he told Li Wei to let Ye Xiaomu sit back in his carriage. Li Wei had no choice but to lie to Ye Xiaomu and say that he had something to discuss with her, and let her go into the carriage he was sitting in. Mo Chen didn't say anything and got into his carriage.

"Li Wei, what's the matter? Look at you so mysterious. Hurry up and finish, I'm going to sleep. Ye Xiaomu asked Li Wei curiously.

"Well, it's my uncle who has something to tell you." Li Wei is a little country boy in the end, and he really can't find anything to talk about Ye Xiaomu, so he can only kick the question back to his uncle.

"Oh~ that uncle, what's the matter??" Ye Xiaomu looked at Li Hongzhong and asked.

"Actually, it's not a big deal, I just think it's not convenient for you to sit with a strange man as a girl." Li Hongzhong said nonsense.

"But Uncle Li, you and Li Wei are also men!" Ye Xiaomu asked puzzled.

"Ahem~~ How is it the same? We are all from the Wood Country, you are our lord, and we will protect you. There will never be two hearts, but others will be different. Li Hongzhong explained with a meaningful effort.

Ye Xiaomu shook his head helplessly, and he didn't have the heart to ask any more. It's just that this carriage is hard and not very comfortable. Not to mention the bumps that hurt your butt when you were in a hurry. I can't sleep.

I thought: It's better to still have a carriage with ink dust, the carriage is cushioned with blankets, the tremor is smaller, you can sleep, you can sit comfortably, and there are a lot of good things to eat. The main thing is that the people in the carriage are handsome.

Ye Xiaomu was really bored in the car, so he opened the window. I saw a tea house not far ahead.

"Uncle, there's a place ahead to rest. It's been a long time since we've been on the road anyway. Ye Xiaomu shouted without replying.

"Well, let's take a break, then."

"Tell me to go down, leave some people to guard, and everyone else go to the front to rectify and rest." Li Hongzhong said to a subordinate by the carriage.

"Yes, Lord of the Castle."

The group stopped, and all the people in the carriage came out and walked towards the tea house. Some stayed to feed the horses.

"Did you hear that? The princess of the wood country fought with the prince of the water country again. A man sitting in the teahouse said to the man at the same table.

"Why?" The man asked.

"It's not because the water lord didn't go to the palace to look for her, she went to the lord of the country to find someone, who knew that she just saw the water lord talking to a palace maid who was wet, so she got angry and hit her with a whip. Fortunately, the prince blocked it with a sword, otherwise the palace maid would have been miserable. ”

"I think our princess has fallen in love with the Lord of Water, otherwise why would she eat so much vinegar? Hahaha"

"Then you are wrong, originally the princess of our wood country and the king of water originally had a marriage contract, and then I don't know what happened, our princess went to the king of water to withdraw the marriage. There are rumors on the side of the water country that their prince has been dumped, which was quite sensational at the time. Xiao Er took a few side dishes and put them on the table of the chatting man.

"It's funny, I thought that people in this era were ordered by their parents. It doesn't seem to be all. I want to get to know this princess of the wood country, she has too much personality. Ye Xiaomu and the others got out of the car and walked to an empty table and sat down, and just happened to hear the conversation of several people, so they asked Xiao Er curiously.

"The son doesn't know that between our countries, most of them still marry according to the number of etiquette, the order of their parents, and the words of the matchmaker, and only the children of the descendants with higher status can choose their spouses. However, there are also some aspects of interest that must be in accordance with etiquette. Xiao Er walked to Ye Xiaomu's table and poured tea and replied.

"And such a thing? I thought I could fall in love freely like some places I knew. But fortunately, it's not exactly according to the so-called etiquette. Ye Xiaomu said, as if he was recalling something.
