Chapter 20 The First Gains

There is no moon tonight, and the sky is still dark, which provides a good cover for Mu Ming to slip into the Yicheng.

Mu Ming entered Yicheng almost without much thought. At this time, the sky has turned white, and the sky is about to dawn.

The town seemed to slowly wake up from its slumber, lit by candlelight, accompanied by the occasional barking of dogs.

Mu Ming couldn't help but speed up his pace, he knew that in the near future, the small city would become lively, before that, he had to disguise himself, after all, he still had a few acquaintances in this small city, although twelve years had passed, maybe a few people still remembered him.

Mu Ming sneaked into a house, not all the people who can live in the city are rich and rich, and there are not a few small courtyards like this.

Mu Ming walked along the clothes hanging in the yard and put down a few spirit quenching in front of the door, which he asked Mo Wuji's personal soldiers for before leaving.

He remembered that there were a few spirit crystals on his body at the beginning, but after waking up, the spirit crystals and a few spirit plants brought out from the top of the sky disappeared, and he didn't have to think about it, he didn't know if it was the city lord of Yicheng who touched it when he buried him, or if he was touched by his people.

Mu Ming changed into coarse cloth clothes and looked around.

"It's time to find a place to stay. ”

There are a lot of places to live in Yicheng, but for Mu Ming, who wants to hide his traces at this time, it is not easy to find, so naturally he can't find an inn to live in generously like he did last time.

Only when the enemy is clear and I am secret, it is in the best interest of myself.

Mu Ming, who was pondering where he landed, suddenly heard a soft snort, and the sound was so weak that Mu Ming almost thought he had heard it wrong.

Mu Ming looked at the dark alley in astonishment for a long time, and no sound came out.

Just when Mu Ming thought it was an illusion and was about to leave, a slight footstep sounded from far and near in the small alley.

It was two men in coarse cloth clothes, they came out of the darkness, and they didn't seem to get used to the faint light outside, and almost bumped into Mu Ming.

Mu Ming staggered, and the two of them didn't stay, leaving in a hurry.

Mu Ming frowned, and his eyes narrowed sharply into a slit. He had just smelled a faint smell of blood on the two of them.

And looking at the posture of the two people leaving, Mu Ming has a familiar taste, it is a soldier.

Mu Ming no longer hesitated, and his figure quickly disappeared into the alley.

The alley was deep and dark, and as soon as Mu Ming turned the corner, he saw a bright and burning flame not far away.

Mu Ming hurriedly stepped forward to extinguish the flames, it should have been just lit by the person who had just left, and the flames had burned through the sack, but they had not yet caused harm to the people inside.

Through the hole in the sack, it can be vaguely seen that it is a human leg. Mu Ming hurriedly untied the sack, and what was printed out of his eyes was a familiar face.

Mu Ming had seen him, and it was a long time ago, when he had just come back to life, and he glanced at him from afar.

This person is the honest man who carried the corpse with the captain Rui Tong on the night of Mu Ming's resurrection.

"It turned out to be the city lord's man, why would the soldiers kill him?"

Mu Ming suddenly felt that his luck seemed to be good, and as soon as he entered the city, he seized an important opportunity.

The honest man's chest was cut by a knife, the blood was still gurgling out, and his face looked extremely pale in the faint light because of blood loss.

Mu Ming checked it and let out a sigh.

"Your fate is great, but your heart is born on the right side. ”

Mu Ming quickly stopped the bleeding, picked up the honest man, and rode away quickly in the sky.

He felt as if there was a place to stay.

Twelve years have passed, and Ruitong's residence has not changed, it is still the low house next to the city lord's mansion.

Mu Ming was familiar with the road, and restrained Rui Tong before he could react, even if there was an extra man on Mu Ming's shoulders at this time, Rui Tong still had no power to fight back.

However, Rui Tong didn't want to exclaim like last time, but stared at the man on Mu Ming's shoulder with a surprised expression.

"What's wrong with you?"

Mu Ming saw that Rui Tong seemed to have completely ignored him, so he let go of the hand that restrained him.

As soon as Rui Tong regained his freedom, he snatched the man from Mu Ming's shoulder and put it on his narrow bed.

Rui Tong carefully examined it for a long time and seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

"What's going on?"

There was an unconcealable anger in his voice, even if his wife disappeared for no reason five years ago, when he knew the reason, but was powerless, he had never been so angry.

"There were two people, disguised, a bit like army people. ”

To Mu Ming's surprise, Rui Tong did not have the accident he imagined, but muttered, "Are you going to attack our two brothers after all?"

Mu Ming didn't know who was going to attack him, but he didn't ask.

"Thank you seniors for saving my third brother. Rui Tong at this time looked a little different from when Mu Ming first met.

"You're a little different. Mu Ming thought so and said so.

"Seniors know me?" Mu Ming covered his face with a coarse cloth, but Rui Tong didn't recognize him.

"Twelve years ago, I visited you in the same way, but you weren't as calm as you are today. ”

Twelve years ago, that night, of course, Rui Tong still remembers it vividly, that was the first time he was in Yicheng City, and his home was held hostage, at this time, Mu Ming mentioned it, and Rui Tong remembered it at once.

"It turned out to be a senior. Did the seniors come here for that woman?"

Mu Ming was silent for a long time before he said faintly: "It turns out that you don't know anything about that woman. ”

Rui Tong smiled bitterly, he did hide it at that time, he had lived outside the city since he was a child, the displaced people were suffering, and if he was not careful, his life would be threatened, so he knew what kind of situation was most beneficial to him.

At the beginning, he pointed the finger at the city lord, and he was also gambling, hoping that this powerful mysterious man would have good thoughts after knowing the first evil, and let him go, who was just doing things and "a person who knew nothing". As it turned out, he was right.

However, later, the city lord did not encounter any trouble, and this matter gradually became dusty in his memory.

It's just that this time is different from the past, and greater dangers are coming, but some things have to be said.

"Tell me, you know all you know. Mu Ming is a smart person, Rui Tong's careful thinking at that time, he understood it after thinking about it.

"Actually, I don't know who the woman my predecessor asked is?"

Seeing Mu Ming's bare brows tightly twisted together, he hurriedly added:

"Because there are too many such women, about twenty years ago, my two brothers helped the city lord transport such a female corpse. ”

Even though he was a human in two lives, Mu Ming couldn't help but gasp.

"Are they all pregnant girls?"

Rui Tong nodded.

"Until now, it has never stopped, and every month, my two brothers have to transport one such body up the mountain. ”

Mu Ming's hands creaked and creaked, representing his anger to explode at this time.

For 20 years, there has been such a corpse every month, which means that 240 girls like Xiao Muyue's mother have been killed.

"Where did he get these women?"

The lifeless words rang in Rui Tong's ears, and he couldn't help but shudder, he knew that it was the killing intent of the mysterious man.

Rui Tong shook his head and said, "I don't know, but there are always female corpses appearing in the City Lord's Mansion every month, and they have never stopped. ”
