In the dead of night, the ice was biting.

Xu Muchuan was alone in the room, opening the wooden window, quietly looking at the dark sky in the distance.

The cold wind kept blowing, blowing Xu Muchuan's thin robe whirring, and blowing the hair next to Xu Muchuan's earlobes messy.

The scenes of the daytime seemed to be presented in front of him, dangling in front of Xu Muchuan's eyes over and over again.

The scarlet blood seemed to be flowing in the depths of Xu Muchuan's eyes, and he couldn't calm his mind at all, let alone fall asleep and rest.

The white jade hairpin that was broken in half was held tightly in the palm of Xu Muchuan's hand, and the cold and biting chill from the white jade hairpin went straight to his heart. Xu Muchuan looked down at the white jade hairpin and muttered softly: "What's so difficult about dying, it's rare to live." ”

Xu Muchuan closed his eyes, quietly felt the cold wind blowing, and quietly calmed himself in the cold wind.

Closing his eyes, Xu Muchuan seemed to see Wei Qingyan dancing in a long dress; Closing his eyes, Xu Muchuan seemed to see Wei Qingyan lying in the muddy puddle with her charming charm; Closing his eyes, Xu Muchuan seemed to be able to feel that the long sword stabbed by the black shadow killer during the day was so cold and cold.

"Since you all want me to die, then I'll live well and bury you all!"

Tick...... Tick......

The two crystal tears were so prominent in the dark night, the tears slipped down from the corners of Xu Muchuan's eyes, and the sadness containing countless emotions seemed to be expressed from these two teardrops.

After the white jade hairpin broke, it lost its previous smooth color, and lay quietly in Xu Muchuan's hands.

"Qingyan, I'm sorry......" Xu Muchuan had countless bitterness in his heart and couldn't say it, because he was the minister of the Qincha, and the things on his shoulders were too heavy and heavy.

What's more, Xu Muchuan is very confused about the road ahead, and he has nowhere to rest assured.

For a long time, Xu Muchuan looked at the dark night sky outside the window and didn't know how much time had passed. He slowly placed the white jade hairpin in a light wooden box, and then placed the box tightly on his chest.

…………………

Even after a fight, the bluestone floor was stained with blood, but it could not stop the footsteps of the sun.

The morning sun gently illuminates the earth and illuminates the tense atmosphere of the southern city.

Xu Muchuan, who didn't know how long it took to fall asleep, sat in the front hall early in the morning, silently looking at everything around him, as if yesterday's fight had not happened.

"Teacher, Miss Wei is buried on the nearby Qingyou Mountain, you ...... Do you want to check it out? Yun Changqing slowly walked from the side, bowed to Xu Muchuan, who was expressionless, and said.

Hearing Miss Wei's three words, Xu Muchuan's eyes flashed slightly, but they were quickly covered up by Xu Muchuan: "No, let's go back later!" In the next few days, we have to take care of the trivial matters in Nancheng. ”

"Yes, Teacher." Yun Changqing couldn't help but glance at Xu Muchuan more, looking at Xu Muchuan on the outside, there was no change, but Yun Changqing always felt that something had changed in Xu Muchuan.

"Changqing, these people in Nancheng will be tried in five days, in these five days, you can help me summarize their situation and what they have done over the years! I have other things to deal with. ”

Xu Muchuan said softly and solemnly.

Yun Changqing felt that Xu Muchuan had an inexplicable change, but he couldn't tell what had changed. Yun Changqing was stunned for a moment, then bowed and responded: "Teacher, Changqing knows, the teacher can rest assured." ”

"Well, you go down first! Leave me alone for a while. Xu Muchuan waved his hand lightly and motioned for Yun Changqing to step back.

Yun Changqing took a deep look at Xu Muchuan, bowed, and then quietly turned around and left.

At the corner outside the door of the room, Wen Ruofei and Fu Hengsheng looked at Xu Muchuan silently, and neither stepped forward to disturb Xu Muchuan. As for Ran Hong, he went early in the morning to deal with the five prefectures that were imprisoned and Liang Wenrong, the Zhizhou who escaped.

Fu Hengsheng and Wen Ruofei both had deep self-blame in their hearts, if it weren't for their momentary negligence, how could they have let the Black Shadow Killer who attacked and killed yesterday take advantage of the loophole.

The two of them even thought that if it weren't for Wei Qingyan's desperate rescue, then Xu Muchuan would have any losses, and the two of them would not be able to make up for this mistake even if they apologized with death.

"Childe ......" Wen Ruofei looked at the back of Xu Muchuan sitting in the front hall, and muttered extremely worriedly.

Xu Muchuan touched his chest, turned his head to look at Wen Ruofei and Fu Hengsheng who were at the corner of the eaves, and said, "Brother Wen, I bother you to go to the Chen family and bring the news of these squire families in Nancheng." ”

Seeing Xu Muchuan speak, Wen Ruofei and Fu Hengsheng glanced at each other, and then walked together.

"Childe, this time we have obtained so much hidden news from the Chen family, will the Chen family still reveal the information of the squire family to us over the years?" Wen Ruofei's eyebrows were like a sword, and he asked with a slight frown.

"His Chen family has no way out, so he can only cooperate with me." Xu Muchuan replied without thinking.

"Yes, Childe, I'll teach my soldiers to do this! The villain is still accompanied by the son, and he doesn't dare to relax at half. Hearing that it was not the first time to disobey Xu Muchuan's order, he lowered his head as if he was a little remorseful.

Xu Muchuan was stunned and said in a deep voice: "It's okay." ”

Thinking of yesterday's danger, Wen Ruofei and Fu Hengsheng's backs are cold now, and now the two of them don't dare to let Xu Muchuan out of sight if they say anything.

In the south of the city, all entrances and exits are strictly blocked, and no one is allowed to enter or leave.

Many rich and powerful squires vaguely expressed their willingness to pay 100 gold to go out of the city, but they were reprimanded and retreated by the soldiers guarding the gates of the four major cities. Although the soldiers guarding the city gate were very jealous of the golden coins, they did not dare to disobey the orders of their own camp generals and ministers.

If a person comes out from under them, let alone Baijinke, even Wanjin will not be able to save their heads.

At a city gate in the southern city, five people who looked anxious in a hurry kept walking back and forth in the tea shop at the city gate. Among these people, the leader is Liang Wenrong, the former governor of Nancheng.

"Master, what should we do now? The four gates are heavily guarded, and it is impossible for us to get out. An elderly man next to Liang Wenrong clapped his palms and said eagerly.

Liang Wenrong's face was pale, and he couldn't stop his pace, he didn't know how long he had been walking back and forth: "Last night, every house was strictly searched, and it won't be long before we are found." ”

The four people next to Liang Wenrong all looked panicked, and the worried look in their eyes could not be concealed.

"You go and fight with the guards guarding the city gate, and let the guards loosen their mouths at all costs." Liang Wenrong gritted his teeth viciously, pointed to the elderly man beside him and said eagerly.
