Wanyue's face was solemn, and she looked at Mu Xie with great concern: "Mu Xie, are you injured?"

Mu Xie shook his head slightly, then looked up at the sky. At this time, the sky is full of dark clouds, indicating that rain is coming.

Wan Yue looked at Mu Xie's thoughtful appearance and walked to his side, stretched out her hand and pulled his arm, and then said to him gently: "You don't have to pay too much attention to what that bad guy said, he is all crooked." He is trying to distract your vision, deliberately speaking language that shocks you, the purpose is to distract and distract, and then sneak up on you!"

Mu Xie listened to Wanyue's words, he glanced at Wanyue, and then smiled slightly.

"I'm fine, don't worry, Sister Wanyue. ”

In the face of the Ghost Sa Dao Chengkuan, this opponent whose ranking is still behind him, Mu Xie has no way to win quickly, which shows that he still has a lot of room for improvement.

For a whole night, Mu Xie was not in a good mood, Cheng Kuan was an unscrupulous person, he was even afraid that Wanyue would be implicated, but he was unconsciously worried about Wanyue.

He lies in bed, his mind full of fantasies, and he himself indulges in these images, he wants to empty himself as if he did not exist, and only his mind soars in an inexplicable space. In the end, he thought of the Huiyuan Immortal Grass, this Immortal Grass is a divine object, which can not only bring the dead back to life, but also is an excellent thing to enhance internal strength.

The next day, the princess sent two fathers-in-law to invite Mu Xie into the palace again, and unlike in the past, this time Mu Xie happily longed for it.

Before going to the palace to see the princess, he told Wanyue that she must be careful everywhere to beware of the ghost sa knife Chengkuan, and try to avoid going out, he left the Fengluan golden silkworm armor to Wanyue to prevent the ghost sa knife to hurt Wanyue.

On the way to the palace, an old woman walked past Kixie with a bamboo basket, she originally wanted to sell the roses in the basket to Kixi, but Kixie was really startled when she saw the old woman, and her hand was already clenched into a fist.

He was very vigilant in his heart, for fear that the ghost sword would be disguised in disguise, and then take advantage of his unpreparedness, and suddenly appear to assassinate him, he is now like a frightened bird, as soon as a stranger approaches, he will immediately be vigilant.

"Mu Shaoxia, are you okay?"

As soon as the old woman said a few words to Mu Xie and walked away, Father-in-law Lu greeted Mu Xie.

"Oh, it's okay, it's okay..."

"Yesterday in the alley in the east of the city, I just met the number one killer in the Southern Snow Country, his name is Guisa Dao Chengkuan, I wonder if my father-in-law has heard of this person?"

When Father-in-law Lu heard Cheng Kuan's name, his face showed a slightly nervous look.

He glanced at Mu Xie and said, "Did the ghost sword Chengkuan appear in the capital?"

Mu Xie nodded slightly, then turned his head to look at the figure of the old woman who was selling flowers just now and said, "Yes, not only did he appear in the capital, but he also stabbed me yesterday." ”

"He said he was here to kill me specifically to compete for the ranking of the Snowy Heroes. ”

Father-in-law Lu said "oh", and then stopped talking, he thought that no matter how powerful this ghost knife Chengkuan was, he must not dare to assassinate the emperor, not to mention that the master in this palace is not a vegetarian.

"By the way, Grandpa Lu, the princess has been doing well lately, what has she been busy with lately, princess?" Mu Xie said to the princess, and a smile appeared on her face.

Father-in-law Lu heard Mu Xie mention the princess, so he bit his lip lightly, and then stretched out the big hand of the orchid finger and shook it towards Mu Xie.

"The princess was scolded by the Queen Mother once last time, and then she was sullen every day. I don't know what the reason is, and then I get angry, and those of us who are slaves will suffer. After Father-in-law Lu finished speaking, he shook his head and glanced at the little father-in-law beside him.

"Isn't it? The other day I accidentally broke a cup, and the princess made me slap myself in both ears. The little father-in-law said quite aggrievedly, squeezing his eyes, as if his face was still hurting.

After the two fathers-in-law complained, they looked at each other blankly, and then their faces became even more ugly in an instant, and Father-in-law Lu looked at Mu Xie and said, "Mu Gongzi, let's tell you this, should you give a small report to the princess and her old man?"

"What do you say?" the Wood Evil frowned, then the evil smiled.

"Oh, aren't we miserable then? Mu Shaoxia is a benevolent gentleman, don't tell the princess that we complain to you!

"Don't worry, Grandpa Lu, we are all in the same boat, we are all hard-working little people, how can I betray you two, right?" Mu Xie said, patting Grandpa Lu on the shoulder.

"Yes, yes, we are our own people!" Father-in-law Lu heard Mu Xie say this, and danced happily.

Mu Xie was taken to the room where the princess was sleeping, you must know that this is an absolutely private place in the palace, except for the palace maids and eunuchs who are particularly close, it is absolutely impossible for ordinary people to approach this room.

Just now, when Mu Xie heard that he was going to enter the princess's boudoir, he deliberately patted the dust on his shoes at the door.

"Slave Mu Xie, kneel down and worship the princess. When Mu Xie saw Princess Changle, he pretended to kneel.

The princess was fiddling with a box at the round table, and when she heard Mu Xie shouting, she hurriedly looked at Mu Xie and said, "Little Mu Xie doesn't need to be polite, come and help me." ”

As she spoke, Princess Changle put the box and a small wooden stick in her hand on the table.

"What is the princess fiddling with?" asked Mu Xie as he walked slowly to the princess's side.

The princess pouted, and there was a hint of anger in her eyes.

"It's this nasty box, I opened it once yesterday, but I haven't looked carefully at the contents yet, it's not a small close, but I can't open it. The princess said resentfully, and slapped the box on the round table with her hand.

"I see, princess, let me take a look..."

As soon as he finished speaking, he walked over to the table, picked up the box on the table, and examined it carefully.

"Hey, this box is so beautiful! Is there pearls on the outside of this box?" asked Mu Xie as he looked at Childe in surprise.

"What pearls, this one is more expensive than pearls, this is a pearl of the night, at night, it will shine. The princess looked at Mu Xie with a look of contempt on her face.

"Oh—" Kiwie blinked, and flipped the box in his hand over.

After a while, he showed the box in his hand to the princess, and he pointed to the box and said to the princess: "Childe doesn't know, this lock is extraordinary, this is a combination lock." ”

"What is a combination lock? I haven't heard of it!" the princess looked at the box with wide eyes in curiosity.

Mu Xie looked at the princess and smiled and said: "The combination lock is a mechanism lock, which can be opened without a key, when the princess opened it yesterday, it may be that the box was not locked, and when the cover was closed again, it prompted the lock cylinder to be locked." ”

"Then what can I do? and there is no key, don't you mean there is no way to open it?" the princess looked a little disappointed when she heard the words of the wood evil.

Mu Xie tapped the box lightly with his hand, and then carefully stared at the position of the golden lock cylinder, and had an idea in his heart.

Although this golden lock has no key, it has twelve small holes that are the size of a needle's eye.

Mu Xie thought for a long time, and then said to the princess: "Princess, besides this box, there must be something else put together with this box!"

"Hey, don't you say I've forgotten, it seems that there is a silk fan!" As soon as the princess finished speaking, she got up and took out a silk fan from the cabinet next to her.

The princess opened the fan, looked at it for a moment, and did not see why, so she handed it to the wood evil.

Mu Xie stared at the fan for a while, and then secretly happy in his heart, he Mu Xie is a highly talented student, and he likes to specialize.

"Princess, this fan is the password!" Mu Xie pursed his lips and said with a smile.

Then he opened the silk fan and displayed it in front of the princess.

"Princess, look at this fan, the plum tree in this painting, there are twelve branches, and there are two yellow eagles on these two branches alone. ”

"I can assure you that the location of these two yellow eagles is the key to unlocking the lock. "Mu Xie was a little triumphant.

The princess ordered her maid to find two slender needles, and inserted them into the small hole at the same time according to the position of the yellow eagle bird on the picture of the fan.

With a "snap", the box opened.

"Hehe, Xiao Mu Evil really has you, I didn't expect you to be so smart. The princess was overjoyed, and he took a grape from the table, peeled off the skin, and brought it to the mouth of the wood with his own hands.

"Open your mouth, this palace will reward you!"

"Thank you, princess, for being flattered!" said the wood evil mischievously, and opened his mouth to eat the grapes that the princess had peeled with her own hands.

As his mouth touched the grapes, his lips touched the princess's jade finger slightly.

The moment the princess's finger touched Mu Xie's lips, the princess's body trembled, and she felt her cheeks burn hot.

"Alas, princess, why is your face red, are you sick?" said Mu Xie as he continued to pretend to be stupid.

"Go, go," the princess shouted, half-ashamedly, half-angrily, pointing at the wood.

After a while, the princess opened the box with the pearl of the night, and then took a look at the contents of the box, and placed it on the round table.

"What are these things! Alas, none of these gifts received this year are fun! I don't like them. As soon as the princess finished speaking, she turned to look at the wood evil.

"Little Mu Xie, you owe me something! When will you give it to me?" Princess Zou said with a furrowed brow.

When Mu Xie heard the princess say this, he was taken aback and said, "Princess, the conscience of heaven and earth, I haven't taken anything from you! ”

"Cut, when did Hongu say you stole my things?"

"I mean, you owe me a birthday present, what about my gift, are you ready, bring it to me?" the princess asked the woody with a smile as she stretched out her white and flawless arms.

"Damn, it's been almost a month since your birthday, and you're embarrassed to ask for a gift, aren't you a robber in your last life?" Mu Xie glared at his round eyes, and secretly complained in his heart.

"Uh... Yes, if you count it as a faux pas, I came with a gift from Sister Zhuge Suya, but I really didn't prepare for it. ”

"But you can't blame me, you weren't familiar with the princess at that time!, right?" said Mu Xie, feeling a hot spot on the back of his head, and reached out to scratch his head.

"I wasn't familiar with it at the time, but now I'm familiar with it! This palace is not picky, if you have any rare things on you, take them out and pick them out for the master of this palace. ”

The wood demon choked as if he had swallowed a fly.

"It's all obviously robbed, and you still say that you are not picky?" Alas..."Mu Xie secretly smiled bitterly in his heart.

After a while, he took off the Haoyue Pearl dagger from his waist and offered it to both hands...
