Chapter 282: Escape
Great Xia World, in Mu Yaxi's rental house.
"Are you sure this news is true......"
Mu Yaxi asked with a dry throat.
"This is a message sent to me by Master, I don't have any evidence to prove the authenticity of this news, but I am willing to believe Master," Jiang Shaohan said with a sincere expression, "If it weren't for Master, I might always be an ordinary person, and I believe he wouldn't harm me." β
Even if that's the case, it's too ...... It's ......"
Mu Yaxi bit her lower lip tightly, not knowing what she should say.
Emotionally, she is very reluctant to believe this kind of thing, after all, once this matter is true, it means that her family is not only about to face a catastrophe, but this disaster is also brought to them by the ancestor of the family himself.
But intellectually speaking, this possibility is not impossible.
Although this is just a speculation, considering that this summoning came so suddenly, and his father's abnormal attitude before, Mu Yaxi understands that this kind of speculation may indeed be the truth.
"No, I can't accept this kind of thing, I'm going to ask my father for an explanation!"
Mu Yaxi took out her mobile phone and wanted to call her father, but Jiang Shaohan held him down.
"No, it's very likely that this will startle the snake!"
Out of caution, Jiang Shaohan chose to stop Mu Yaxi.
After all, he didn't know what Mu Yaxi's father's attitude was towards this blood sacrifice, if the other party was simply kept in the dark, it would be better to say, as long as the window paper was pierced, the matter would be solved.
But if he is a madman or a cold-blooded person who knows the truth and supports this kind of action, then Mu Yaxi's behavior is tantamount to self-destruction.
"What then?" Pressed by Jiang Shaohan's arm, Mu Yaxi did not continue to try to make a call, but glared at Jiang Shaohan and said, "Shaohan, I am willing to believe you, but your master of unknown origin is only based on a sentence without evidence......"
The ringtone of the mobile phone interrupted Mu Yaxi's words, she and Jiang Shaohan glanced at each other, and their eyes fell on the screen at the same time.
The two big characters in the caller ID are clearly legible - father.
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
Jiang Shaohan and Mu Yaxi glanced at each other, Jiang Shaohan nodded slightly, and Mu Yaxi's thumb moved slightly, pointing on the answering point.
"Escapeββ! Runββ! Don't come backββ! Hereβ"
The voice of a middle-aged man, so sharp that it was almost deformed, echoed through the rental house, and then stopped abruptly.
Although the voice was greatly distorted, Mu Yaxi still heard it for the first time, it was her father's voice.
ββ¦β¦ Now the evidence is there. β
As soon as these words came out, Jiang Shaohan couldn't wait to slap himself with a big mouth.
The future father-in-law is now obviously experiencing a life and death crisis, life and death are uncertain, and there is even a high possibility that he has already encountered an accident, and he is still joking here.
It's just that Jiang Shaohan can't control this matter himself, whenever the atmosphere is tense or embarrassing, he can't help but play a little cold humor to dissolve the calm atmosphere, from a certain point of view, this should be called nature.
But at times like these, he's clearly overdone with humor.
Mu Yaxi glared at Jiang Shaohan fiercely, and followed his words: "Strictly speaking, this should be called a human witness!" β
"Do you need physical evidence?"
Jiang Shaohan, who blurted out these words, suddenly had an urge to cut off his tongue.
"No need, it seems that your master is indeed right," Mu Yaxi shook her head, closed her eyes, took a few deep breaths, and when she opened her eyes again, her expression was already quite calm, "Let's go, let's get out of here first." β
Since childhood, Mu Mingxiao has been teaching Mu Yaxi a truth, intentionally or unintentionally, - there is calm in every major event.
At this moment, this subtle teaching, which has lasted for more than ten years, has finally come into play.
"Leave? But your father ......."
Jiang Shaohan frowned slightly and said puzzledly.
"Judging from my father's situation just now, it is obvious that we are facing a strong enemy that is difficult to resist, we are now in the magic capital, and my family land is in Hanzhong, more than a thousand miles apart."
Although his father's life and death are uncertain, Mu Yaxi's tone and demeanor are unprecedentedly calm.
"Not to mention that the opponent who can put my father in a desperate situation is definitely not something the two of us can compete with, even if we rush over, with the current situation, if the person who did it has murderous intent against my father, then he may already be more than lucky."
"And if the person who did it didn't plan to kill my father, then he should be safe for now," Mu Yaxi was so calm that he didn't seem to be talking about his father, but a stranger, "In other words, it's useless to worry, it's better to take care of yourself first." β
"So what should we do next? Master told us not to believe in the Dragon Gate, then the academy will definitely not be able to stay, with the power of your family, no matter where you flee, I am afraid it will not be safe. β
Jiang Shaohan frowned deeply, although he had a good sense of the academy, but considering that what the master said about the Dragon Gate was not credible, and the academy was founded by the Dragon Gate, he was not prepared to stay in the academy.
"No, at the moment, there is still a place that is safe," Mu Yaxi shook her head and said, "Although my mother died when I was very young, she also comes from a big family that is not much worse than the Mu family, and that family should be able to shelter us temporarily. β
"After all, if we are sacrificed by blood, the Ancestor will break through the Ten Heavens, and no one should want to see one more Tenth Heaven Venerable in this world."
"Aren't you afraid that they will kill you directly, and then completely destroy the corpse, and directly eliminate the aftermath forever?"
Jiang Shaohan asked.
"No," Mu Yaxi shook her head, "My mother is the third daughter of the patriarch, and my grandfather has always loved me, so it is impossible for me to do such a thing...... And we don't have a better partner. β
"Yes," Jiang Shaohan nodded and asked, "Senior sister, you keep saying 'that family', what do you mean by that family?" β
"It's said to be a family, but strictly speaking, it's actually more like a family-style sect, and the so-called patriarch is the master of the sect."
In Jiang Shaohan's painful gaze, which seemed to have guessed something, Mu Yaxi said the name of the "family": "Bashu Tangmen." β
β¦β¦
Longmen Demon Capital Branch, in Lu Jiang's office.
"Tuk Tuk ......"
There was a knock on the door, and Lu Jiang said without raising his head: "Come in!" β
"Team Leader ......"
Mu Zihan pushed the door open, his face full of fear and confusion.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing that it was Mu Zihan who came in, Lu Jiang sighed in his heart, suspecting that the situation he didn't want to see finally happened.
Now that the results of the review are about to come out, Mu Zihan is coming over at this moment, it is very likely that she understands in her heart that some of the things she has done in Longmen cannot pass the review, and what she said before "with a clear conscience" is just a hard mouth.
This is the last thing Lu Jiang wants to see, because once this kind of thing happens, he is afraid that he will be forced to arrest his lover with his own hands.
"Team leader, I have a very important thing to report......
Thinking back to what Mu Yaxi had just told him on the phone, Mu Zihan felt that his whole body was trembling with fear.
β¦β¦
Hanzhong, the land of the pastoral family.
The Mu Ming Owl, whose body was scarred and scarred, was tied up by a spiritual rope and half-knelt in front of the quiet room where Mu Chang Geng was.
Behind him, a woman wearing an OL suit, with a hot figure and soft facial features, stood with her hands down, looking at Mu Mingxiao who was covered in injuries with distress.
"Tell me, Stygian, how did you discover the true purpose of the old man summoning his people back?"
The voice of the old and debilitating rang out from the ashram.
"No, the Underworld doesn't know," Mu Styx turned his head to look at the woman standing diagonally behind him, "The Underworld just thinks that something is strange, and Lian Xin's behavior has been a little strange recently, so she just wants to cheat." β
"I didn't expect that Lianxin, your cultivation was so profound, that even I, the former patriarch who had cultivated for decades, was ashamed of myself, and I didn't expect that you were actually personally arranged by the ancestor to come to me......
"No, I'm sincere to you, I've really always admired you, Patriarch......"
Mu Lianxin hurriedly spoke, but was interrupted by Mu Mingxiao: "Admiration? Admiring me for being a waste who was badly injured in ten rounds? β
"Waste?" The shepherd in the quiet room chuckled, "If a child like you is all waste, then nine out of ten people in the world are probably a handful of dung." β
"The ancestor praised it falsely."
Although he said modest words, Mu Mingxiao's tone was not half modest, and he even wanted to spit out two mouthfuls of phlegm.
"If it weren't for the fact that the road suddenly opened in the year of the old man's last candle, you would be the heir to the mantle of the old man before he died, but the road to heaven is open, then you can only be wronged to help the old man set foot on it."
"It seems that we are just stepping stones for your ancestors."
Mu Mingxiao was covered in blood, gritted his teeth and sneered.
The voice in the quiet room was silent for a long time before it sounded again: "Lianxin." β
"Ancestor."
The woman behind the shepherd bowed and saluted.
"You take the old man's letter and go to the clan to announce that the underworld is instructed by the old man to retreat and cultivate, in order to break through, and the affairs of the clan will be handled by you, the deputy of the patriarch, for the time being, and from today on, you will be the acting patriarch."
"Yes."
Seemingly not caring about being sacrificed in the future, Mu Lianxin took the signal flying out of the quiet room, reluctantly glanced at the seriously injured Mu Mingxiao on the ground, and turned to leave.
β¦β¦
On the plane from the Demon Capital to Bashu, Jiang Shaohan and Mu Yaxi sat in two adjacent seats, clasping their hands together and clasping their fingers.
"Don't worry, we'll all be fine, when we get off the plane and meet your cousin, let's go to the Tang Gate immediately, and when we get to the Tang Gate, we will try to stop your ancestor ...... with the help of the power of the Tang Gate."
Grabbing Mu Yaxi's hand, Jiang Shaohan comforted.
"I'm worried that the family will send pursuers."
Mu Yaxi is obviously not as optimistic as Jiang Shaohan.
"Do they dare to do it in the city? Longmen is not a vegetarian ......"
"Tangmen is located in the mountains of Bashu, with a radius of 100 miles, deserted and inaccessible."
In Mu Yaxi's words, Jiang Shaohan was petrified on the spot.
