Chapter 165: Bitten by a poisonous snake
A reproach suddenly came from the room: "How can these people be on an errand, they have caught thieves in the inn, it is really unreasonable!" Then the door slowly opened.
Wang Lin looked at the two of them, they didn't know each other at all, his heart was gloomy, and he turned to the soldier: "Go!" ”
Qing Mu deliberately shouted: "Brother Cha, are you leaving like this?" Don't come in and have a cup of tea before leaving! ”
Wang Lin roared loudly: "Hmph, I hope you will abide by the law, if you do anything wrong, it will fall into the hands of this official, and you will definitely look good!" ”
After speaking, he led the soldiers downstairs quickly, and a soldier walked up to Wang Lin: "Lord Administrator, only these two people came in Meilong Town today." ”
"If it weren't for them, they might have already passed through Meron Town or hadn't arrived yet, do you need your subordinates to stay behind?"
Wang Lin nodded slowly: "Leave a team of people to stay and investigate, and the others, follow me to the next town to investigate!" ”
"Yes, Lord Steward!" The soldiers returned.
In the room, Qing Mu stretched his waist and smiled: "Oops! I'm so tired, Shengdong Xianggong, I'll go back to sleep, remember to call me tomorrow! ”
"Yun'er lady, good night!" Muzi smirked.
Downstairs, the group of soldiers who stayed behind whispered to each other. Listen only to Soldier A: "Oops! The little lady Liu Yun'er just now is really beautiful, if you follow me, you will have no regrets in this life! ”
Soldier B scoffed: "It's you...... Let's go to Cuihong Courtyard to find your little peach, the toad still wants to eat swan meat! ”
"You haven't looked at her Xianggong Wang Shengdong, that handsome, definitely not the son-in-law of ordinary people, I think eighty percent is also the home of the eunuch. It's better to make less trouble, maybe you offend someone, and you don't know how you died. ”
Soldier C: "What the second brother said is that we are soft-spoken, and we should not provoke these people!" ”
Qing Mu listened to the chatter outside the window, opened the window, and shouted: "You guys, can you stop for a while, this girl still has to sleep, and then shout, see how I clean you up!" ”
Soldier A was taken aback and trembled: "Let's not talk about it, don't blame the girl!" ”
Bow your head to everyone: "Let's go, it seems that there will be nothing to gain tonight, let's go drink." ”
"Good! Good! Let's go! The soldiers departed in groups.
Qing Mu smiled, heart, now it is finally quiet, fortunately, when you leave, you will take the disguise with you, otherwise, it was really thrilling just now, and it seems that you have to be careful everywhere in the future, Mu Yuan is really not easy to deal with.
The next morning, after Qing Mu and Mu Qi packed up, they decided to continue on their way, and not long after leaving Meilong Town, they encountered a group of people, who were the same group of people who chased after them and stayed here last night.
Qing Mu thought that they had left, because the two of them had not changed their appearance, Mu Qi was worried in his heart, and shouted: "Qing Mu, go quickly!" ”
The soldier had sharp eyes, saw it at a glance, and shouted: "Look, these two people are the two people who said the chief manager, it turns out that they were disguised and modified last night, no wonder we didn't recognize them!" ”
The leader of the squad roared: "Surround them, immediately send someone to inform the Dao Chief!" ”
Soldier B: "I'll go!" So saying, he got on his horse and galloped away.
Suddenly, with a snort, a dart was fired, and Soldier B instantly fell off his horse, dying, and lifeless.
The squad leader was stunned, and commanded everyone to move forward to encircle and suppress, Mu Qi pulled out his long sword from the horse, and smiled: "Originally, I didn't want to embarrass you, but you are looking for death, then don't blame me!" ”
After speaking, he leaped up, and the sword shadow in the air was like the wind in an instant, and in a moment, the team of soldiers all fell to the ground and could not get up again.
Qing Mu looked at Mu Qi in astonishment, dumbfounded, and sat on the back of the horse in a daze, unable to speak.
Mu Qi smiled slightly: "Qing Mu, what's the matter, did it scare you?" ”
"No, no! I didn't expect your martial arts to be so high, it seems that I was too worried! Qing Mu was stunned and replied mechanically.
Mu Qi: "It's a small matter, these soldiers usually act as a prestige, always bully the common people, and make them suffer a little, it's nothing." ”
"Let's go, Qingmu, I'm afraid that now that we're really exposed, we're going to change course. It seems that the official can't go, let's take the path. ”
Qing Mu smiled and replied quietly: "Okay, prince." ”
The two got on their horses, rode their horses, and walked into the small intestines of the sheep, far away from the officials, and walked like this for a few days. Mu Qi secretly left a secret note for Liu Qingming, informing him that he had already taken a small road to Liangcheng with Miss Qing, so that he didn't need to worry.
On this day, Qing Mu and Mu Qi walked to the water network area around Huashan, it was the height of summer, the heat was unbearable, the two dismounted to rest, and made a fire by a bush.
Mu Qi raised his eyes and looked at Qing Mu, his beautiful face was a little vicissitudes, he had been rushing around for several days, sleeping in the open air, he shook his head: "Qing Mu, are you tired." ”
"Don't be tired, prince, if you don't insist on accompanying me on a trip, I'm afraid I'll starve to death." Qing Mu quipped.
Mu Qi smiled slightly: "Well, after this swamp, you should be able to get to Chang'an, I heard that Chang'an is a prosperous city, but unfortunately now we can only take a detour in order to avoid King Yun." ”
"Well, it's nothing, there will be opportunities in the future, and when you clean them up, are you afraid that you won't have a chance to visit?" Qing Mu faintly.
Mu Qi was about to say something, but suddenly, there was an "ah", Qing Mu was startled by the sudden shout, and hurriedly asked, "Prince, what's wrong?" ”
Mu Qi smiled bitterly: "Unexpectedly, there are snakes in such a water network area!" As he spoke, he gently lifted the hem of his clothes, revealing his calves, and at a glance, drops of black blood flowed out.
Qing Mu was taken aback, and his voice trembled: "Viper, prince, how are you?" ”
"Well, it's just a little numb, and I don't know it!" Mu Qi was sweating profusely and whispered.
Qing Mu looked at his expression, anxious in his heart, he must be in pain, but he was afraid that he was worried, so he endured the pain, thinking of this, he was grateful.
Suddenly, without saying a word, he leaned over and quickly sucked the poisonous blood with his mouth, sucked it out one by one, and spit it on the ground.
"No, no! Qingmu, you will be poisoned in this way! Muzi anxiously tried to stop.
But where did this come from, overnight, Qing Mu had already sucked the poisonous blood.
Mu Qi gradually felt that his calves could move, but at this time, Qing Mu was getting weaker and weaker, and it didn't take long for him to fall to the ground, dying.
"Qing Mu, Qing Mu, don't sleep!" Mu Qi slowly hugged Qing Mu and shouted urgently.
Qing Mu whispered weakly: "Prince, I'm really happy, I can meet you here, even if I have no intention of you at the beginning, you only have disgust with me, it's enough, if I die, I don't have too many regrets!" ”
Mu Qi was anxious in his heart, and shouted in a low voice: "Qingmu, wake up quickly, I won't let you sleep!" ”
As he shouted, he suddenly remembered the life-saving elixir that Master had given him, patted his head with his hand, and said to himself, "How did I forget this!" ”
In a hurry, Mu Qi reached into his arms, took out a small porcelain bottle, and smiled happily: "Qing Mu, Qing Mu, I have a way!" ”
As he spoke, he poured out a pill from the porcelain bottle, fed it to Qing Mu, and took one himself.
Qing Mu fell asleep deeply, and in her dreams, she thought of the past of the previous life and the bits and pieces of this life, and she missed the past very much.
In this way, Mu Qi kept holding Qingmu, and throughout the afternoon and evening, she kept talking in her dreams, one saying that she wanted to kill, and the other shouting handsome brother in a soft voice.
Mu Qi didn't dare to move, for fear of waking up the beautiful woman in his dream, until he sighed, and the beauty in his arms slowly opened his eyes.
looked at him who had been staring at him, and smiled: "Prince, I didn't expect that if I died, you would come to hell to accompany me, ahaha!" ”
Mu Qi smirked: "Pure nonsense, Qing Mu is good, what hell will it be?" Look at it, such a beautiful scenery, do you think it's hell? ”
Qing Mu sat up slowly, Huan Qing looked around, and smiled: "Oops! So we're still here, it's good to be alive! ”
Mu Qi smiled: "Lord Qingmu, you can take a lot of advantage of this palace!" ”
"Ahh Qing Mu was surprised, "How is it possible! ”
Qing Mu raised his head and looked at Mu Qi gently, full of apologies, and was very grateful in his heart: "Prince, I'm sorry to let you and me go into danger together." ”
Mu Qi shook his head and smiled slightly: "Qingmu, thank you what?" ”
Qing Mu blinked his eyes and asked suspiciously: "By the way, prince, didn't I get poisoned, why don't I feel anything now?" ”
Mu Qi let out an "ah", pondered for a moment, and smiled: "When you were poisoned and unconscious, I met an old man, the gentleman who collected medicine in this mountain, gave me a bottle of elixir, and saved the two of us!" ”
Qing Mu was skeptical and asked, "Really?" ”
Mu Qi nodded, and casually put the pill in his hand: "Look, the medicine is still here!" ”
"Oh, I see, what about the old gentleman? We want to thank them! Qing Mu continued to ask.
"Well, he saw that you were in a coma for a long time, and he had already gone down the mountain, and I had already thanked him for subsidizing a part of the silver taels to save the weak and the weak!" Muzi lied.
Qing Mu smiled slightly: "That's good!" Let's go, let's continue to hurry, it has been delayed for some time now, I'm afraid that Mu Yuan will catch up with us. ”
Mu Qi shook his head and explained: "Don't worry, we are taking a small road, much faster than their officials. ”
"I'll make you something to eat." Mu Qi asked with concern again.
"Hmm!"
Mu Qi got up, went to the pond in front of him, caught a few fish, cleaned them up, and came back to grill them on the fire.
Not long after, a fragrant aroma refreshed people's hearts. Suddenly, there were a few "coo-coo" sounds, Qing Mu raised his eyes to look at him, and whispered with a smile: "I'm hungry." ”
Mu Qi smiled indifferently and comforted: "Wait a minute, it will be fine right away!" ”
Another quarter of an hour passed, the air was filled with fresh aroma, Qing Mu only felt more hungry, staring at the fish on the grill with bright eyes, Mu Qi looked in his eyes and smiled: "Okay, it's ready to eat." ”
As he spoke, he took the fish away from the fire and smiled: "Do you smell it, is it fragrant?" ”
Qing Mu was indeed hungry, and he didn't think about it, so he mechanically reached out to catch the freshly grilled fish, and suddenly, with an "ah" sound, he retracted his hand. Mu Qi was worried: "I've never seen such a greedy county lord, be careful of the burn!" ”
As she spoke, Mu Qi picked up her jade hand, blew it with her mouth, and asked, "How is it, does it hurt?" ”
Qing Mu shook his hand, "hummed", and smiled: "You don't tell me it's hot, how do I know, then you break it for me!" ”
Mu Qi shook his head and smiled: "Good! As he spoke, he flipped the fish back and forth a few times, took out a handkerchief from his waist, wrapped it in a handkerchief, gently tore off a large piece of fish meat, handed it to Qing Mu, and told him: "Slow down, be careful of scalding!" ”
Qing Muyan smiled, took it with her hand, blew it with her small mouth, and ate it slowly. Mu Qi kept staring at her movements, watching her eat happily, and asked with a praising face: "How is it, is it delicious?" ”
"Delicious! It's delicious! It's the best thing I've ever eaten in my life! Qing Mu smiled contentedly.
"Well, it's delicious, you can eat more, we'll have to hurry later!" Muzi said happily.
Qing Mu smiled lightly: "Prince, you eat too." ”
As he spoke, he tore a slice of fish with his hand and put it to his mouth.
Mu Qi smiled, without saying a word, he bit it casually, Qing Mu was stunned, glared at him, and smiled: "I'm letting you take it with your hands!" ”
"Qingmu, look at my hands, do you think I have a way to take it?" Muzi said, raising two hands, each with a roasting wooden stick.
Qing Muxiao's face flushed, glanced at him, and ate delicious grilled fish to himself, ignoring him. Mu Qi smiled slightly, and didn't care, she was shy, and she didn't tease her anymore.
Mu Qi continued to barbecue, and suddenly, he raised his eyes and looked at Qing Mu looking at himself, he was stunned in his heart, and muttered: "Qing Mu, what's wrong, isn't it delicious?" ”
Qing Mu held a handkerchief in his hand and waved it gently: "I'm done!" ”
Mu Qi chuckled, took the handkerchief from her hand, tore a large piece of fish, handed it to her, and smiled: "Eat slowly, there is more!" ”
Qing Mu nodded slowly, eating the fish and meat with satisfaction, and happily looked at Mu Qi who was carefully grilling.
The praise in his mouth said: "I can't imagine that you are a dignified prince, your craftsmanship is so good, this girl really underestimates you, it seems that I want to get to know you again!" ”
Mu Qi smiled: "In the future, you will find that I have many more good things, I'm afraid you will think that I am too perfect!" ”
"Hmph, less smelly and beautiful, praise you twice, and you will your tail!" Qing Mu replied.
"Yes, yes! Lord Commander, I still have a lot of things to ask you for, okay? Muzzy was half-joking.
Qing Mu smiled with satisfaction: "It's about the same." ”
Qing Mu and Mu Qi were talking and laughing and eating the grilled fish, and after a while, they ate the grilled fish. She wiped her little mouth and hands with a handkerchief, got up and rubbed her little belly contentedly, and smiled happily: "It's so full!" ”
Mu Qi looked at Qing Mu with a snack on his face, he was really happy in his heart, and smiled: "Let's go, let's go to the pond to wash, our hands are full of oil!" With that, he took her and walked towards the pond in front of him.
After a quick freshening up, and after returning and resting for half an hour, the two got on their horses and continued on their way. Now that there was a delay of some hours, the two of them did not talk much and quickly galloped westward.
After another three days, Qing Mu and Mu Qi had already rushed to the periphery of Liangcheng, and Liangcheng could already be seen from a distance. Qing Mu smiled happily: "It's finally coming, I'll be able to see my brother soon, I'm really happy!" ”
Mu Qi smiled slightly and asked, "Do you have a good relationship with your brother?" ”
"Of course, my brother has watched me grow up since I was a child, and he has treated me best, more than when my father was with me!" Qing Mu smiled smugly.
"Let's go!" As he spoke, Qing Mu rode his horse and galloped forward.
Mu Qi looked at Qing Mu and hurriedly shouted: "Qing Mu, wait for this palace!" ”
Before the words fell, the horse chased after him.
Qing Mu and the two walked to the foot of Liangcheng City and shouted loudly: "Please open the city gate!" ”
The soldiers on the tower shouted, "Who are you?" ”
Qing Mu smiled slightly: "Go and report to General Qing Lun and let him come to see me!" ”
The soldiers on the city tower looked at each other, and suddenly, a voice came, asking: "Who is making noise under the city tower?" ”
The soldier stepped forward and reported: "General Tong, the people below asked me to wait to find General Qinglun?" ”
Tong An was very surprised, in Liangcheng on the western border, who knew General Qinglun?
I couldn't help but have some suspicions, walked up to the city tower, looked down, and at a glance, it was not trivial, and ordered all the soldiers to immediately open the city to greet them, and hurriedly said to the soldiers: "Be careful to greet them, the city is the king of Yuan and the lord of the county!" ”
All the soldiers were surprised, and they no longer dared to slack off, quickly opened the city gate, and went out of the city to line up to greet them. Everyone knelt down one after another, and said: "Subordinates see the prince, see the county lord!" ”
Mu Qi smiled slightly: "No need to be polite, take us to General Qinglun!" ”
Tong An got up: "Yes, my subordinates will arrange it immediately!" As he spoke, he ordered his cronies to take King Yuan and the county lord to the inn where General Qinglun was staying.
It didn't take long for Qing Mu and his entourage to arrive at this Liangcheng Inn, only to see the dragon flying and phoenix dancing on it: Liangzhou Inn, Qing Mu was slightly surprised, looking at this powerful big character, he sincerely admired the boss, and had a good hand.
The soldier led the two to the living room, and said carefully: "Your Highness, county lord, please wait, I will report it!" With that, he trotted upstairs to report the matter. A moment later, Qing Lun walked downstairs and saw Qing Mu at a glance.
Qing Mu looked at Qing Lun with teary eyes and shouted loudly: "Big brother! ”
Before the words fell, he rushed forward and threw himself into his arms, hugged him tightly, and cried: "Brother, if it weren't for me getting married, my father wouldn't have disappeared, I'm sorry for my father." ”
Qing Lun shook his head, patted her on the back, and comforted: "Qing Mu, I don't blame you, it's me who didn't protect my father." ”
"No, it's all my fault!" Qing Mu cried loudly, hugged him, and couldn't cry by himself.
"Okay, Qingmu, don't cry, you're here now, we have to find a way to get your dad back!" Qing Lun comforted.
"Hmm!" Qing Mu slowly collected his emotions, slowly let go of Qing Lun, and asked in a low voice, "Brother, do you have any clues?" ”
Qinglun shook his head: "Brother, I have been investigating for a long time, but I have found nothing, and almost even the territory of the Xirong people has been turned upside down, and I still have no clue!" ”
While talking, looking at her sister who was crying red, she was very distressed, took out a handkerchief from her arms, and helped her gently wipe the tears on her face.
After a while, Qing Lun blinked his eyes to see Mu Qi, the only surprise in his heart, let go of Qing Mu, stepped forward, and bowed: "My subordinates see the prince, I didn't know that you were here, and it was rude to you!" ”
Mu Qi shook his head and smiled: "No need to be polite! ”
Qinglun nodded: "I was really embarrassed just now, I just wanted to recognize my sister, and I forgot that His Highness was here, I'm really sorry!" ”
Qing Mu looked at the two of them and smiled: "Okay, come politely, go politely, I'm annoyed!" Alright, sit down! ”
"Yes, yes! Your Highness, please take your seat! "Qing Lun.
Mu Qi nodded, sat down on the main seat, and asked, "Now, King Qingyi has not found it, but what clues are there, is it that the Xirong people are playing ghosts?" ”
Qing Lun shook his head: "I still have no clue, now that the king of the Xirong clan has been arrested by our army, it shouldn't be the Xirong clan!" ”
"Well, it's okay, let's investigate slowly, by the way, Qing Mu and I rushed over first, and in a few days, Qin Cha Mu Yuan will arrive soon, this person is not easy to speak, be careful!"
"Arrange a place for me and Qing Mu, and don't let King Yun know that we have arrived in Liangcheng!" Muzi confessed carefully.
"Why?" Qing Lun asked suspiciously.
"Brother, don't ask, Mu Yuan, you must be careful, I'm afraid he doesn't have such a good heart! If you can't let him know, you won't let him know," Qing Mu advised.
"Okay, brother listens to you!" Qing Lun replied.
Qinglun glanced at his sister and Mu Qi, and pondered for a moment: "Otherwise, you move to Zheng Huaran's army outside Liangcheng to live temporarily, he is my best brother, I will repair a book and give it to him, he will naturally take care of you!" ”
Qing Mu was worried: "Brother, you must be careful of Mu Yuan, His Highness and I will go first!" Qing Lun nodded, hurriedly went to the study, wrote a brief letter, and handed it to Qing Mu.
