Chapter 170: Protecting the Moon (1)

Following the source of the sound, Mu Shengbai continued to walk deeper into the cave, it was very dark inside, there was no light, fortunately he had excellent eyesight, which really didn't affect him much.

He heard a 'snap' sound, and he stepped on a puddle of water, and when he looked down, he saw a man curled up there, holding a sword in his arms, his hands and feet were chained, and the end of the chain was deeply embedded in the wall.

The man was dressed in black, his face was buried on the ground, his black hair was scattered, and he barely made a sound of breathing, and Mu Shengbai thought that this was a dead man.

Squatting down and reaching out to probe his snort, it was faint, but it was still there.

"What are you doing?"

The man's voice that suddenly came out startled Mu Shengbai, it turned out that the man's eyes didn't know when they had opened, it was like a layer of ice condensed inside, without any emotion, like a bottomless deep spring, Mu Shengbai couldn't help but gasp.

Mu Shengbai felt that the atmosphere was a little embarrassing, "I just look at whether you are alive or not." ”

The man closed his eyes again, and his voice was unwavering, "Don't worry, I won't do what you want." ”

Mu Shengbai was confused, and then remembered his current situation, this person might have regarded him as an accomplice of those bandits, and hurriedly explained, "I'm not in a gang with those people, I'm a ......" He didn't know how to explain for a while, "Anyway, it's not a gang, and I have an enmity with them." ”

The man chuckled, his eyelids were half-drooping, obviously looking very weak, but Mu Shengbai could still feel a strong and endless vitality from him, "Although it doesn't matter to me, but seeing that you don't hate it, I think it's necessary to remind you that I am the object of their key care, if you stay here any longer, the possibility of being discovered is one hundred." ”

Mu Shengbai was about to get up as soon as he heard this, but when he looked at the mysterious man lying on the ground who was even breathing weaker and weaker, his feet felt rooted, "Do you want to leave with me?" ”

Somehow, he unconsciously said what was in his heart.

The man raised his eyes and playfully tugged at the chains tied to his hands and feet, "See this?" Thousands of years of dark iron, I keep chopping, what if I want to go? ”

Mu Shengbai squatted down again, weighed the iron chain, pulled out the sword, and cut it off with a sword under the man's indifferent eyes, and then cut off the other three Qi roots under the man's surprised eyes, seeing his results, Mu Shengbai was proud and proud, "What about the thousand-year-old Xuantie, this sword was forged by my master himself, sharpening iron like clay, not to mention that it is only a thousand years, even ten thousand years of Xuantie." ”

He was full of admiration and trust in his master.

The man was stunned, as if he couldn't believe that he was so free, and he didn't come back to his senses until Mu Shengbai pulled him up, his eyes were like ice melting, lingering with a touch of emotion, staring at Mu Shengbai, sincere and straightforward, "Regaining my freedom is tantamount to re-entrusting my next life, I Li Qing walked the rivers and lakes alone, but this kindness, Li Qing is willing to protect you with his life, as a cow and a horse, for ten years." ”

Mu Shengbai was stunned for a while before he hurriedly refused, "No need, saving you is just a whim of mine, besides, the enemy of the enemy is a friend, and saving you is to add an enemy to them, why not?" ”

"The benefactor is not only pure in heart, but also so pure, it may be a blessing for me to follow you."

In the end, Mu Shengbai still couldn't resist Li Qing, and they had to leave quickly, so Mu Shengbai had to agree, so there was a mysterious guard by his side.

The two walked out together, and the sound of talking came from around the corner.

"Have you brought food to that man?"

"That man feels like a mouse, even if he doesn't give him food, he can live well, hahaha, what kind of food is wasted."

"Hahaha, too, but there is just some food left here, anyway, there is no dog, it is just right to feed the man, I went to send him a ...... first"

The footsteps were getting closer, walking in the direction of the two, Mu Shengbai naturally heard that what the two were talking about was Li Qing, looking at him, his face was hidden in the shadows, his side face was indescribably cold, and his hand was on the sword at his waist,

Li Qing's body is so weak, rash action will definitely aggravate the injury, Mu Shengbai wanted to stop him, but Li Qing glanced at him, Mu Shengbai understood that he wanted to know this person who insulted him with his own hands, and gave up the idea of helping.

"You escaped!"

As soon as the man turned a corner, he bumped into Li Qing with a cold face like a king of Yama, Li Qing didn't want to give him a chance to call someone, but he saw a flash of cold light, Li Qing pulled out his sword, although he was seriously injured, but his swordsmanship was superb, and the man was quickly solved by him.

Li Qing held the sword, spit out a mouthful of blood, his face became even paler, Mu Shengbai was shocked by his swordsmanship, seeing him like this, his heart tightened, and immediately came over to support him, Li Qing's hand loosened, the sword slipped from his hand, his eyes were closed, Mu Shengbai picked him up, and also took his sword with him,

Mu Shengbai successfully walked out with great caution and took Li Qing to the county mansion where he temporarily lived, and personally healed him.

And not long after Mu Shengbai returned to the county mansion, the cave was turned upside down.

"The big boss, I didn't find the man."

In a room of stone on three sides of the cave, a ragged corpse was thrown to the ground, and the big boss had a gloomy face and a faint sense of fear.

The person who was locked up with a thousand-year-old black iron escaped mysteriously, and a brother had countless wounds cut by picking up, and the murderer could not be found.

"Big boss, shouldn't it be someone sent by the imperial court?"

One of them said worriedly, his face was pale and floating around, and it was nothing to find people, but three brothers had died one after another without even seeing the figures, which made them have no way to calm down.

The big boss didn't have much confidence to say this, the traitor leader knew it, and he was also arrested by the people of the court, if he said it, it was not necessarily, but in order to appease his brother's emotions, he had to, "What to say?" No way, who knew we were here! ”

The whole cave of thieves spent the night in fear, and in the morning they were all exhausted, and fear and darkness had drained all their energy.

The next day, Mu Shengbai brought people over to exterminate these bandits, they didn't have much energy to resist, and the casualties on Mu Shengbai's side were negligible.

As soon as they got off the mountain, the matter was spread, and those who shouted that they wanted to build a temple for Mu Shengbai also took action, and many people paid out of their own pockets, and Mu Shengbai couldn't stop it.

Su Ming smiled playfully, "My lord, you should accept it with peace of mind." ”

As soon as he thought that he was still alive and well, his statue was enshrined, and Mu Shengbai's scalp was numb.
