When Li Mu and the four of them came to the south gate, they saw four soldiers at the gate of the city, drinking and shaking together.

Li Mu no longer hesitated, beckoned Aunt Zhang and their mother and son to follow, and walked quickly through the city gate with Xiu'er on his back, without stopping, just walking forward.

Seeing that Li Mu was walking so fast, Xiu'er glanced back at Aunt Zhang's mother and son, and found that Aunt Zhang's mother and son had just left the city gate, and pulled down a distance of thirty or forty steps from them, so she couldn't help but panic, and hurriedly asked, "Childe, why don't you wait for Aunt Zhang and them." ”

Li Mu knew in his heart that Miss Xiu'er had misunderstood herself. Li Mu replied: "Scattering is not easy to arouse the suspicion of others. We waited for them under the tree in front of us. ”

Li Mu didn't wait for Xiu'er to reply, and walked straight to the tree a hundred steps away in front of Xiu'er.

When he got to the bottom of the tree, Li Mu put Xiu'er down, took out the package with two long shirts from his shoulder bag, put it at Xiu'er's feet, and said with a smile: "Miss Xiu'er, let's take a break, Aunt Zhang, they will come over soon." ”

Xiu'er's heart warmed, he was really a caring man. Xiu'er looked at the package at her feet was new, thinking that it must be the child's clothes inside, how could a woman sit on a man's clothes casually.

Li Mu saw that Xiu'er was not sitting on the package, but sitting on the ground against the trunk of the tree. couldn't help but be curious: "Miss Xiu'er, why don't you sit on the package, people are more comfortable." ”

Xiu'er hesitated, but still replied: "How can a man's clothes be a woman's casual sitting?" ”

Li Mu then asked, "Then how can a woman sit on a man's clothes?" ”

Xiu'er immediately replied, "Of course it's her husband." ”

Xiu'er immediately covered her mouth with her hands, turned her head sideways, and her pretty face turned crimson.

Li Mu looked at Xiu'er's shy appearance, and suddenly became playful, and asked with a smile: "Then may I ask Miss Xiu'er, what is a woman lying on a man's back?" When Xiu'er heard this, her pretty face was even hotter.

Li Mu was shocked when he saw that Xiu'er was no longer talking, oh no, his joke was too big, how could he chat with an ancient woman with the thoughts of his time.

Li Mu coughed dryly and said apologetically: "Miss Xiu'er, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to embarrass you, I..."

Without waiting for Li Mu to finish speaking, he saw Xiu'er turn her head, her eyes were already full of tears, and she said angrily: "Xiu'er thought that Gongzi was a big hero and a humble gentleman, but she didn't want Gongzi to ask such a question." ”

Li Mu's heart was already in chaos, so he had to say softly: "Miss Xiu'er, you misunderstood me, I don't mean to be a light girl." If you are angry, you can hit me and scold me, and don't cry again. ”

Li Mu saw Xiu'er wiping her tears with her hands, and her heart was even more panicked, she had nothing to look for.

Well, now, it seems that it's time to make it up, only to see Li Muzheng say: "Miss Xiu'er, don't hide it, I am not a native of Bingzhou Dai County, and I am not a citizen of the Thirteen Prefectures of the Han Dynasty, but I am also a descendant of Huaxia Yanhuang." I had come to this place three days earlier, and in my hometown, where men and women are equal, and things like this are commonplace, and I have not changed for a moment, and I have said something that disgraces the girl, and I know that I have made a great mistake. There is a rule in my hometown that if a man makes a mistake that a woman cannot forgive, he will cut off his own arm. ”

After Li Mu finished speaking, he didn't wait for Xiu'er to reply, he took out a small flat shovel from his satchel and prepared to greet him on his arm.

I saw Xiu'er rushing to Li Mu's side, holding Li Mu's arm with a small flat shovel with both hands, and said anxiously: "Childe, don't do anything stupid, Xiu'er will have forgiven Childe." ”

I saw Li Mu extremely lonely and said: "Miss Xiu'er doesn't have to force herself. ”

Seeing Li Mu's lonely appearance, Xiu'er gritted her silver teeth, blushed and said softly: "Xiu'er is not a person who doesn't know the general situation, Xiu'er really forgives Childe, Xiu'er will count on Childe to carry me back for a while." ”

Li Mu hurriedly accepted it when he saw it, and said with a straight face: "Thank you Miss Xiu'er for your generosity, I promise that there will be no next time for such a thing." However, Xiu'er, you have to promise that you can't let a third person know that I am not a citizen of the big man, which is very important to me. ”

Xiu'er nodded, indicating that she understood, and then let go of Li Mu's arm.

Li Mu put away the small flat shovel and said, "Miss Xiu'er, you rest for a while, and I'll go see Aunt Zhang and their mother and son." ”

Li Mu didn't wait for Xiu'er to reply, he walked towards the road he came from just now, he patted his chest with his hand, and said in his heart: This woman is really a tiger, and this beautiful woman is a tiger among tigers!

I saw Aunt Zhang's mother and son walking over with their arms, Li Mu glanced behind them a few times and found that no one was following.

In order not to delay time, Aunt Zhang asked Li Mu to carry Xiu'er on her back and continue to hurry. Aunt Zhang also began to chat with Li Mu without a match. Aunt Zhang saw that Li Mu's hair, clothes and shoes were different from normal people, so she naturally had to ask.

Li Mu didn't care either, he just told Xiu'er and Aunt Zhang's mother and son about the rhetoric he had said to Niu Er before.

Xiu'er knew that the son who was carrying him was called Li Mu, nineteen years old, and now lived in Yinma Village, Dai County, which was more than 40 miles away from Yuanping City. His hair had been cut short because of a head injury, and his clothes and shoes had been bought from merchants in the Western Regions.

Xiu'er lay on Li Mu's thick back and fell asleep unconsciously.

Li Mu and the four of them set off from the south gate of Yuanping City, and finally made a big circle before returning to the road that walked Muzhi Village, but fortunately, the road to Muzhi Village was still easy to walk.

After almost half an hour, Li Mu asked Aunt Zhang, "Eldest sister, according to the time, we should be almost to your Muzhi Village, right?" ”

Aunt Zhang looked at the road in front of her and said with a smile: "It's almost there, there should be another five or six miles to go." Li Gongzi, you will stay at our house tonight, I will cook for you and cook a few good dishes for you, so thank you Li Gongzi for saving your life. ”

Li Mu just smiled and said, "Eldest sister, you don't have to worry about today's matter. ”

Suddenly, Zhang Wei pointed to a man in the distance and said to Aunt Zhang, "Mother, it's my father who came to pick us up." ”

When Aunt Zhang saw it, she was also full of smiles, and said softly: "Yes, it was your father who came to pick us up." ”

When he saw the tears in Aunt Zhang's eyes and the injury on Zhang Wei's face, he hugged Aunt Zhang's mother and son, and asked anxiously: "Ayuan (Aunt Zhang's name, Liu Yuan), what happened?" What about you and A-Ling..."

Aunt Zhang pointed at Li Mu and choked up: "If it weren't for Gongzi Li to save him, Xiu'er and I are afraid that we will be ruined by Wang Ze." ”

How could Zhang Cheng not know about Wang Ze's bestial behavior. sighed helplessly, turned his head to Li Mu, and said with a respectful expression: "Zhang Cheng thanks Li Gongzi for saving his life, if he needs me in the future, even if he goes up the knife mountain and goes down to the sea of fire, I Zhang Cheng will never say anything." ”

After speaking, it was another bow, Li Mu wanted to stop it, but his hands were not empty.

At this moment, Li Mu and the others found that Xiu'er had not spoken for almost half an hour. Li Mu panicked, turned his head sideways, and shouted "Miss Xiu'er", but Xiu'er still didn't react.

Aunt Zhang hurriedly walked to Li Mu's side and shook Xiu'er's arm, only to see Xiu'er open her eyes in a daze, and said with some embarrassment: "Ah, why am I asleep, where are we here, Aunt Zhang?" ”

Aunt Zhang couldn't help but quip: "It seems that Li Gongzi's shoulders must be very comfortable, otherwise, how could our family Xiu'er sleep so soundly and so deeply." ”

When Xiu'er heard this, she struggled to get off Li Mu's back, her face was crimson, and she couldn't say a word.

Aunt Zhang looked at Li Mu with a red face, and said with a smile: "Li Gongzi, there are two miles ahead of Muzhi Village, and you will rest at my house tonight." Zhang Cheng's father and son also invited in unison and wanted Li Mu to stay.

Li Mu thought that he still had to go back to Yinma Village, and he was afraid that the Wang family's bodyguards would track him there.

Li Mugan coughed and said, "Thank you for your kindness, I'm worried that the Wang family will track down Yinma Village, I have to rush back to prepare in advance, just in case." You also have to be careful of the Wang family, and you still don't go out much recently, so as not to be discovered by the minions of the Wang family. ”

Aunt Zhang and her family saw that Li Mu had made up their minds, and it was not good to keep them.

Li Mu walked up to Xiu'er and said softly: "Miss Xiu'er, your body is no longer in serious trouble, keep a good sleep and a reasonable diet in the past few days, and within a few days, it will be fine." ”

Li Mu saw that Xiu'er didn't speak, but he was afraid that Aunt Zhang would make fun again, so he didn't pay attention.

Li Mu said to Xiu'er and the four of them again, "There will be a period later", and then turned to leave.

Li Mu turned around and walked more than ten steps, Xiu'er suddenly raised her head, her two eyes were already full of tears, and she shouted with all her strength: "Li Mu, will you come to see Xiu'er?" ”

I saw Li Mu not far away, standing there, suddenly turned around and ran to Xiu'er, hugged Xiu'er tightly with both arms, untied the dragon and phoenix jade pendant around his neck and put it on Xiu'er, looked at Xiu'er with affectionate and firm eyes, and said word by word: "Xiu'er, I will come to see you again, I will always remember you." ”

Then he kissed Xiu'er on the forehead. Turn around and run away.

Xiu'er watched Li Mu get farther and farther away until she disappeared from view, and said with a smile, "Mo Shang Yan is like jade, and the son is unparalleled."
