Chapter 341: Mysterious Ancient Books
Wen Xuan was chatting with Mu Chong in the night, when a shadow guard came in and said that there was a man in black with a strange face who wanted to see Wen Xuan by name.
Wen Xuan and Mu Chong were stunned when they heard this, they were in the stronghold that Mu Chong personally led the Night Shadow to arrange, and no one knew except Li Tieniu, Sheng Wenyu, and Han Lingyue.
Wen Xuan, Tie Niu and Sheng Wenyu were all in charge of the shadow guard, excluding Wen Xuan, frowned, could this person be sent by Miss Han to deliver the message? Could it be that something happened to Miss Han?
Wen Xuan replied decisively after thinking: "Quickly invite him to come in and speak." ”
The shadow guard bowed and retreated, and in a short time he led the man over.
I saw that this person covered himself in a black robe, and his face was tied with a black veil, which made it impossible to see his appearance, and the whole person's dress was very similar to Han Lingyue when he pretended to be the sect leader, if it weren't for the difference in height between the two, Wen Xuan would almost mistake him for Han Lingyue.
Wen Xuan politely arched his hand and said, "Dare to ask Your Excellency what ...... is"
The man in black ignored Wen Xuan, but turned his head to look at Mu Chong, who was standing aside unmoved, and questioned, "When did the people of the Mu family become so unruly?" That's what Mu Yun taught you when he was alive? ”
Mu Chong was stunned, since he and Wen Xuan were born, he has been used to acting freely, only treating Wen Xuan as his good brother, and never treating Wen Xuan as respectfully as he treats Wen Xianzhong.
Before Mu Chong came back to his senses, Wen Xuan frowned and said dissatisfiedly: "Brother Mu is like my own sibling, no matter what you look for me to say, he doesn't need to avoid it." ”
After Mu Chong came back to his senses, he first saluted the man in black, and then asked respectfully, "Is this senior a friend of my father?" ”
The man in black seemed to be satisfied with Mu Chong's attitude, nodded and then found a place to sit down, and then took off the package he was carrying.
Wen Xuan and Mu Chong only felt that this person was strange, but judging from his actions, it looked like an old friend of his father, so they stood there and watched what he was going to do.
The mysterious man slowly unwrapped the package, revealing two things wrapped in it, one of which was wrapped in a black cloth, and I don't know what mystery was hidden inside; The other is a pikehead that is extremely beautifully made.
The spear head was translucent and jagged, and it attracted the attention of Wen Xuan and Mu Chong as soon as it was revealed.
Wen Xuan recognized that this spear head was very similar to the one Mu Chong used when he was in Xiaofushe Village, but the spear head taken out by the man in black was more exquisitely made, and the lower end was engraved with the word "Mu" that could be seen with the naked eye.
Before Wen Xuan could speak, Mu Chong had already lost his voice and shouted: "This is our Mu family's thing, who are you?" What is the relationship with my father? ”
The man in black picked up the head of the spear and wiped it a few times with his sleeve robe, then stood up and handed it to Mu Chong, lamenting: "In the first battle of Yuanzhou back then, not only the disciples of the Ming Sect suffered heavy losses, but many heroes and heroes who helped were not spared. Mu Yun escaped from the city for Baowen Xianzhong, and had to fight alone with the Gong Buban under serious injuries, but the Yuan thief was extraordinary, and saw the flaws in the Mu family's gun, and actually put Mu Yun to death, which I only found by chance many years later. Fortunately, God has eyes, and he actually let you get rid of this thief with your own hands and avenge your father, presumably Mu Yun's spirit in the sky will also feel gratified. ”
Listening to the story of the man in black, Mu Chong couldn't help but burst into tears, it was to commemorate his father that he made his gun head look like this, and when he saw his father's relics, he felt even more regretful in his heart, and lowered his head and whimpered.
Mu Chong cried for a long time before he remembered that the man in black was coming to see Wen Xuan by name, and after wiping away his tears with his sleeves, he saluted and retired.
After Mu Chong retreated with his father Mu Yun's relics, Wen Xuan spoke again: "I don't know who the senior's surname is?" Which of my father's and Uncle Mu's best friends is it? ”
The man in black laughed a few times when he heard this, and did not answer Wen Xuan directly, but asked a little lightly, "You have already found the whereabouts of that old man in your family, right?" ”
Wen Xuan was shocked in his heart, this outsider would not know about it at all, unless Han Lingyue told this person personally, so he asked from the side: "The predecessor knew about this through Miss Han's mouth?" ”
The man in black nodded: "I often hear Yue'er praise you for being cautious in doing things, but when I saw it today, you were really a delicate kid." ”
Wen Xuan narrowed his eyes and said tentatively again: "I'm still wondering who helped Miss Han to get in touch with Meng Haima and the others, and now it seems that this plan can be succeeded thanks to the help of her predecessors." ”
The man in black smiled heartily when he heard this: "What a shrewd boy, it seems that I really didn't find the wrong person!" Yue'er entrusts the rest of her life to you, and I am relieved. ”
After saying that, the man in black turned his head to untie the unusually tightly wrapped black cloth, and Wen Xuan also looked at it curiously.
When the black cloth was unraveled, it revealed neither gold nor silver, nor treasures, but a simple and broken ancient book, and even the book cover was about to wear out.
can get so much attention from the man in black, Wen Xuan knew that this book must not be simple, so he squinted at the man in black's every move.
The man in black gently touched the cover of the book, as if he was caressing a baby in his heart, and then picked it up with the black cloth and handed it to Wen Xuan.
"Boy, didn't you say thank you for helping save your father? Now it's time to repay the favor, I have a favor that I need your help, I wonder if you are willing to help me? ”
Wen Xuan suppressed his curiosity, did not take the ancient book, but arched his hand to him and said: "Please also ask the seniors to explain how they need the juniors to help, otherwise the juniors will not dare to accept it indiscriminately, so as to ruin the great affairs of the seniors." ”
The man in black didn't get angry after seeing Wen Xuan so cautious and cautious, but said in a gentle tone: "It's hard to say this, it's easy to say it's simple, it all depends on your intentions." ”
Wen Xuan lowered his bow again: "Please show your seniors." ”
The man in black freed his left hand and helped Wen Xuan for a moment, and then asked slowly, "Have you ever broken into the forbidden land of the Ming Sect Helm?" ”
Wen Xuan nodded honestly: "The juniors were also eager to save their friends at that time, and they also hoped that the seniors would forgive their sins." ”
The man in black then asked, "Do you remember that stone chamber in the Forbidden Lands?" ”
Wen Xuan nodded again: "I remember, it was there that the junior and Miss Han first met." ”
The black-clothed man's tone suddenly became solemn: "Presumably now you already know that the stone room is the place where the sect leaders of the Ming Sect are ranked, and the main reason why I came here this time is to ask you to send this ancient book there for me to be properly placed." ”
Wen Xuan knew that this matter was not so simple, and asked in a condensed voice: "Since the seniors know where this stone room is, why don't you place the ancient books yourself, or ask Miss Han to help?" ”
The man in black knew that Wen Xuan would ask this question, and replied simply: "I have made a heavy oath not to step into the Covered Boat Mountain for half a step, as for Yue'er...... I can't trust her. ”
