Chapter 8: Escape from the Tiger's Mouth

Accompanied Jiang Yue to watch the scenery of Chang'an in the sky for an afternoon, and only separated from it at sunset.

Mu Zifeng whistled and walked on the street where there were fewer people, and he was extremely satisfied with his flirting skills today.

"If I were a man in modern times, there would definitely be a lot of beautiful young ladies who I picked up." Mu Zifeng was proud, "It seems that gender really limits my talent, falling out of love?" From now on, that's impossible. ”

As he spoke, he couldn't help but stand on the street and laugh.

"Isn't this Mu Gongzi?" Someone next to him whispered to his companion next to him.

"You mean the Mu Gongzi who stood on the city tower and said that he liked men? Isn't he a broken sleeve? Why did you go to confess to the princess today? ”

"He must have understood that being with a woman is interesting, and he understands the taste of a woman, hahahaha."

Mu Zifeng didn't bother to argue, so he ate the sugar gourd he bought in his hand and walked towards the general's mansion.

"You are Mu Zifeng?" I don't know how long I walked, but suddenly there was such a sentence behind me.

Mu Zifeng said "um" without thinking.

Suddenly, he only felt that someone was covering his mouth and nose, and a pungent and unpleasant smell was sucked into his lungs violently, and he lost consciousness before he could struggle.

When I woke up again, I was woken up by someone splashing cold water.

Mu Zifeng subconsciously sucked cold water through his nose, and the tingling sensation of cold water entering his nose and lungs made him cough loudly.

It took a long time for him to recover, and he opened his tired eyes, and the blurred scene in front of him gradually became clear.

It was a dimly lit and cramped room, with only one window and one door, and a middle-aged man sat on a chair in front of him, and a short man with a whip stood beside him.

Mu Zifeng wanted to move his sore body, but only then did he find that he was tied to a pillar.

Did he encounter a kidnapping?

Thinking of this, he only felt that his head was buzzing, and it was blank. I just crossed over here, but I didn't offend anyone, how could someone kidnap me?

"You...... Who are you......" As soon as Mu Zifeng opened his mouth, he only heard his voice become hoarse, "Why do you want to arrest me?" ”

"Young Master Mu is really a noble person who forgets things, and he forgot about me so quickly?" The middle-aged man said with a smile.

I just came to this place, and I don't know anyone, so how do you know who you are.

Although he complained like this in his heart, he still didn't dare to say it, because he was really afraid that the other party would accidentally kill him. This is ancient, and you don't know who did it if you throw the body after killing someone.

Mu Zifeng thought about it, so he had to bite the bullet and said, "It turned out to be you, what are you doing here with me?" ”

"You caused my Yu'er to die a tragic death, and there are no bones left! What am I going to do with you? The middle-aged man sneered, "What do you say I'm going to do when I arrest you?" Of course, I want you to bury my beloved son! ”

Hearing this, Mu Zifeng immediately guessed the identity of the middle-aged man, he must be the father of the man that "Mu Zifeng" likes.

Because Xiaoyun once told him that Mu Zifeng didn't want to marry the princess, he said out loud the fact that he liked men on the city tower, and Mu Yuan also killed the man Mu Zifeng liked.

And this middle-aged man kept saying that he wanted to let himself bury his son, then he must be the man's father.

"Boy, do you have any last words to say? Say it all together so you can die a happy death! ”

Mu Zifeng raised his head and smiled: "My last words are that I don't want to die." ”

The middle-aged man's smile became more and more cold, "Hahahaha, last words are just last words, not wishes, and I don't have the need to help you realize your wishes." ”

After finishing speaking, a sharp dagger appeared in the middle-aged man's hand at some point.

Mu Zifeng looked at the blade glowing with cold light, and swallowed, "Can I not die?" ”

"No, you can't!"

"Wait a minute!" Mu Zifeng shouted loudly when the blade was about to touch his neck.

The middle-aged man stopped his movements and sneered, "Do you still have your last words unfinished?" ”

"You mean that there are no bones left of your son's dead body? How do you know your son is dead? "Mu Zifeng is gambling in exchange for his life in the end.

The middle-aged man hesitated, "I...... I listened to someone from the General's Mansion. ”

Seeing that the middle-aged man was a little relaxed, Mu Zifeng continued: "That's just heard, right? You didn't see your son's body with your own eyes, so you would be mistaken for thinking that your son's dead body is gone, right? ”

"What do you want?" The middle-aged man lowered his dagger vigilantly.

Feeling the pain of being pierced by a blade in his neck, Mu Zifeng replied: "If I help you find your son, and your son is not dead, then can you let me go?" ”

"You mean really?" The middle-aged man's words were full of joy that could not be concealed.

Looking at this middle-aged man, Mu Zifeng suddenly thought of his father in modern times, his father knew that he was gone, he must be very uncomfortable at the moment.

Mu Zifeng stabilized his emotions and said, "A gentleman's word, the horse is difficult to chase. ”

"What if you deceived me to escape?" The middle-aged man said suspiciously.

"Why should I lie to you? Since you can catch me quietly once, you can also catch me a second time quietly. ”

"Good! In that case, then you go! ”

When the short man on the side heard this, he untied the rope on Mu Zifeng's body.

Mu Zifeng glanced at the man with his back to him, and stumbled towards the door.

"In half a month, I want to see my son."

Mu Zifeng's pace paused, and then left in a hurry.

When I returned to the General's Mansion, it was already midnight, and I saw Xiao Yunli standing at the door looking anxiously at the door.

He covered his injured neck and walked towards Xiaoyun, and at this time, Xiaoyun also saw Mu Zifeng who came back, and hurriedly greeted him.

"Gong ...... Childe, why are you hurt! Xiao Yun looked at Mu Zifeng in horror as he covered his bleeding neck, and he was wet again, and covered his mouth with some fear, "I...... I went to tell the general, and then I went to the doctor. ”

"No, you don't." Mu Zifeng grabbed Xiaoyun's sleeve and reluctantly pulled out a smile, "Don't bother Dad, I just accidentally scratched my neck, hurt my veins, and the blood flowed a little more, I can't die." Go and get some wine, white yarn, and gold sore medicine, and a set of clean clothes. Remember, don't let anyone know I'm hurt. ”

"Yes, Childe." Xiao Yun hurriedly went to prepare what Mu Zifeng ordered.

house, Mu Zifeng was still thinking about his conversation with the middle-aged man waiting for me, and within half a month, he had to find his son who was alive. If that man is really dead, won't he die soon?

Not to mention whether he is dead or not, I don't even know what his name is or what he looks like.

Mu Zifeng scratched his hair in distress.

"Childe, what you want is ready." The voice of a small cloud came from outside the door.

"Bring it in." Mu Zifeng said.

Xiaoyun walked in with something and placed it on the table.

After Mu Zifeng changed his clothes, he came to the mirror and sat down, looked at the finger-long scar on his neck in the mirror, endured the pain, applied alcohol to himself to eliminate the poison, and made a simple band-aid and pasted it on the wound.
