As soon as Murong Jin pulled Ling Shuang out of a person's chest, he saw such a scene.

Seeing that the situation was unfavorable, the remaining one fled with light effort, and the three of them did not have the strength to chase anymore.

The man was gone, and the three of them were still shoulder-to-shoulder, and their nerves were tense for a long time before they relaxed.

After a taut string was loosened, the fearless bravery and extraordinary strength just now dissipated at this moment. The wound, which had just been unconscious, was also in severe pain at this time.

It was getting dark, but the three of them had collapsed by the lake.

After a long time, Murong Shu came out of his frightening, and reached out to grope for the two of them, "Are you still alive, give a squeak." ”

Nan Xiao: "It's still alive." ”

Murong Jin: "I'm not dead." ”

Murong Shu breathed a sigh of relief, "It's good that you're fine, otherwise even if I go back alive, I will have to be slaughtered by your father." ”

After about half a moment, Murong Jin stood up and cut several cloth belts from his robe, respectively Nan Xiao and Murong Shu, "It's not suitable to stay here for a long time, we have to go back to the city soon." So he went to the lake and cleaned the wound, and bandaged it casually.

Murong Shu also bandaged the relatively small knife wounds on his body, and shook his head a little weakly, "This horse is running and dying, if you walk from here to the city gate, you will already pass the point of closing the city gate." ”

"So what are we going to do?" Nan Xiao asked.

Murong Jin said: "It's better to go back first, maybe someone in the palace will find out." ”

Murong Shu nodded in agreement, "Go back, don't follow the lake, slowly pass through the forest." ”

So the three of them helped each other into the woods.

There is no moon tonight, so I can only move forward in the dark. After stumbling for about half an hour, I saw a fire in the distance.

The three of them approached cautiously, and when they were sure that it was Yun Che and the other people in the palace, they came out of the forest with a sigh of relief.

Yun Che saw the tragic situation of the three of them, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Master, Your Highness, Son, you ......."

Murong Shu knew what he wanted to ask, but he didn't have the strength to answer him so much, and after getting into the carriage, he only left one sentence, "Look further, bring the people from the palace back and bury them well, and then send the bodies of the others to Dali Temple." It is important to find out who did it. ”

Murong Jin and Nan Xiao were not much better, leaning on the carriage with their eyes closed, and did not say a word until they returned to the palace.

After the news reached the palace, he hurriedly called a few imperial doctors to check on the injuries. Murong Shu was well protected, except for a few skin injuries that did not have much depth, there were no big problems.

On the contrary, Nan Xiao and Murong Jin were both injured a lot, Nan Xiao's ten fingers were cut out by the knife wire several extremely deep wounds, and there were also several major injuries on his hands, legs, and chest, but fortunately, he did not hurt his internal organs.

Murong Jin was cut by a sharp blade on his back, pulled from his right shoulder to his left waist, and the bones could be seen in the depths, plus large and small wounds in other places on his body, he fainted in pain halfway through the medicine.

The busy emperor actually took time to come to the Rui Wang's Mansion, and asked a few words while Murong Shu was still awake, and then went to the East Courtyard to check Murong Jin's injuries.

When Murong Jin went, he had lost consciousness, and after taking the medicine, he lay on the couch and fell asleep, his little face was pale and pale, and there was a fine cold sweat on the side of his hairline, and the maid on the side changed the handkerchief on his forehead from time to time.

Emperor Yan stood in the room, but he was a few steps away from the bed, and he didn't come closer, just looked at it like that. There was not the slightest wave of emotion in his eyes, but he sighed after a long time, and turned around and left slowly.

Murong Shu was fined for half a year because he failed to protect the four princes. In other words, because Emperor Yan saw that he was injured less than Murong Jin, he felt that he had not done his duty.

"Alas......" Murong Shu sighed, it was indeed that he did not protect Murong Jin, but let the two children protect him, it was really a bit of a dereliction of responsibility, who told him that he was young and did not understand the importance of martial arts. If he had expected such a day, even if the martial artist whipped him with a whip again, he would have to practice silently.

Murong Jin was reluctant to stay after half a month, and Dali Temple was still investigating the case, and the mastermind behind the scenes had not yet been found. The case was handed over to Dali Temple and the Criminal Department to jointly solve the case, and after so much time, I didn't hear any news.

Murong Shu was scolding the group of wastes in Dali Temple of the Criminal Department with a pen stand, when he saw Murong Jin come in with a white face and a big coat.

"Ouch, little ancestor, why are you here, go back and rest well," Murong Shu hurriedly went up to support him, for fear that he would accidentally fall, "If the injury is not healed, you should go and lie down properly, what are you doing when you come out blindly." ”

"Uncle Wang, let me ask you something."

"What's the matter?"

Murong Jin said: "Nan Xiao, which kung fu did he learn?" ”

Murong Shu didn't expect him to ask this, "What do you do when you ask this, you also know that Nan Xiao is learning from Yun Che, and what he learns is naturally Yun Che's master's kung fu." ”

Nan Xiao learned martial arts with Yun Che about four years ago, which Murong Jin knew, but he had almost never seen what kind of moves and what kind of swordsmanship Nan Xiao practiced.

"What kind of kung fu is that, such a fierce weapon, and the technique is also very treacherous. Fingertip blade, knife in sleeve, in the rumors of the rivers and lakes, these two are with evil magic, sharp blades, no blood is not returned......"

"How do you know this," Murong Shu said in slight surprise, and then turned to say, "You also know that it's just some rumors, not credible......"

Murong Jin said seriously: "Uncle Wang, that's not what I'm talking about. What you let Nan Xiao learn is the art of killing! ”

"Oh? So? ”

"Why?"

Murong Shu said: "What's wrong with learning the killing technique, you also saw it that day, you can still save your life at a critical moment." ”

"You don't have to learn killing techniques to save your life-" Generally, only deliberately cultivated killers and dead soldiers learn that kind of thing, with strange body skills, cold blades, and hurting others and themselves.

"You see, Nan Xiao is very good at learning these things."

"Uncle Wang, what do you mean?"

Murong Shu lowered his voice a little, sounding a little hoarse, "There's a quick knife that can be used for yourself, isn't it?" ”

Hearing this, Murong Jin's scalp tingled, "But I don't want Nan Xiao to become a knife!" The knife wasn't supposed to be him. ”

"Why? Then who do you think should be the knife? ”

"If I had known he was going to be a knife, I probably wouldn't have brought him back."

Murong Shu said coldly: "Emotional-"

"How can one person become a knife in another hand?"

"Why not," Murong Shu said with a smile, "You're still too young to know, this person can turn into a lot of things, become a sword, become a chess piece, become a dog, become a cutting board, and become a stone." Turning into a knife is already a good ending, at least it is much better than turning into fish. ”

"Isn't it enough for you to have these two knives?"

"Not enough," Murong Shu said, "This king doesn't have more than these two knives, it's just that these two knives are sharper." It's good to have more knives in your hand, understand? And ......"
