Chapter 46: Assassination
Ling Mu drove the carriage and slowly drove into the city, and came to a compound under the guidance of Xin Miaofan.
Xin Miaofan got out of the car and walked to the door, knocked lightly on the door a few times, and after a while, there was a creak, the door opened a small crack, and a family member poked his head out to take a look, and said: "Miss, you are back!" The second young master is worried about death, I heard that a group of bandits have recently appeared outside the city, and the second young master asked Ning Pingsheng to take someone out to find you, miss, have you seen it. ”
"They were all dead, killed by bandits. Xin Miaofan said without sadness.
Jia Ding took a breath of cool air, "Then Miss, you ......"
"I'm sorry to disappoint the second brother, so let people save me. "Care" about the family, Xin Miaofan blocked back with a word.
Jia Ding smiled: "Miss, what you said, the second young master is not worried about you." I don't know where Miss's benefactor is, if you want to set up a banquet to entertain you. ”
"No need, I have my own arrangements, open the door. Xin Miaofan didn't really want to talk nonsense with the family in front of him.
Ling Mu naturally saw the problem, but what could he say.
Xin Miaofan walked up to Ling Mu and said, "Two, come with me." ”
Ling Mu walked down, Mu Yayao also got out of the carriage, and the two followed Xin Miaofan in.
Due to the darkness, Ling Mu couldn't see it outside, and after coming in, he found that this place was like a manor, and it was normal for unfamiliar people to get lost inside.
"There are two rooms here, so let's rest here. Xin Miaofan took Ling Mu and Mu Yayao to the residence.
"Trouble Miss Xin. Ling Mu clenched his fists and said.
Xin Miaofan smiled bitterly, "Let the two of you see ugly, because some things have always been at odds with the second brother, and it won't hurt your life before, but I didn't expect that this time the second brother has already recognized that he is looking for someone to commit murder, and he also killed Ning Pingsheng." ”
"Although I am very sympathetic to Miss Xin's affairs, these things are your family affairs, and there is no need to talk to us. Mu Ayayao stood up.
As if she saw that Xin Miaofan had a plan, Mu Ayayao interrupted her.
Xin Miaofan shook his head and said, "Miss Mu misunderstood, but she was a little depressed in her heart, and she wanted to find someone to talk to, although her family is big, there is no one to talk to." Excuse me, farewell. ”
After speaking, Xin Miaofan pushed out of the courtyard and returned to his wing.
"Senior Sister, why did you say that just now?" Ling Mu felt that Xin Miaofan was just explaining to himself what had happened before, and there was nothing wrong with that.
Mu Yayao walked to the door, pushed open a door and said with her back to Ling Mu: "You are still young, this woman is not simple, it is very likely that she wants to take advantage of us, you be careful." ”
Ling Mu scratched his head, although he was already "more than three thousand years old", he was only fifteen years old, either in the palace or herding sheep, and he really hadn't seen too many people.
Ling Mu, who returned to the room, took out two blood spirit beads and swallowed them, watching the sea of qi grow bigger in circles, and breaking through to the sixth level of the Gathering Spirit Realm was just around the corner.
In the middle of the night, Ling Mu, who was cultivating with the Spirit Devouring Technique, suddenly noticed that there was a person coming towards him, but he did stop and go, and his appearance was suspicious.
"Not good!" Ling Mu found this aura and suddenly rushed towards Senior Sister's room.
Ling Mu hurriedly rushed out, "Senior sister." Ling Mu came to Mu Yayao's room and shouted softly.
"It's okay. ”
Hearing Mu Yayao's voice, Ling Mu relieved his heart, walked to the candlestick, and lit the candle.
At this time, Ling Mu found a dead body lying on the ground, "Senior sister, this is?"
"I caught him, and he committed suicide by poisoning, and he was a dead soldier. See us disturbing other people's good things. Mu Ayayao said flatly, as if nothing had happened just now.
"Tomorrow, I want to see who this Xin Miaofan's second brother is. Although Mu Yayao didn't care, there was a killing intent in Ling Mu's eyes.
Early the second morning, Xin Miaofan knocked on the door of Ling Mu and Mu Yayao, and when she saw the two coming out, Xin Miaofan bent down and saluted, saying, "Fortunately, the two of you are sorry, if you want to go back to the Ancient Sword Sect, the little woman will send the two out of the city today." ”
Ling Mu was puzzled and asked, "Why do you want to go out of the city?
Generally, every big city will have a post station, and there are spirit beasts that can fly for people to use, and there is no reason why a city as big as Clear Water City would not have a post station.
"Childe doesn't know, this Qingshui City has been famous for raising silkworms since ancient times, these silkworm babies are naturally timid, once a large spirit beast appears, they will be scared not to spit silk or even directly frightened to death. Therefore, Qingshuicheng has been a no-fly zone since ancient times. Xin Miaofan smiled slightly and explained to Ling Mu.
"Silkworm raising, forbidden to fly?" Ling Mu seemed to think of something in his heart.
Suddenly, Ling Mu grabbed Xin Miaofan's hand and said, "What is the relationship between Golden Silk City and here!"
"Ling Gongzi ......" Seeing Ling Mu suddenly grab his hand, Xin Miaofan's cheeks turned slightly red, "Golden Silk City is the ancient name of Qingshui City, but it was renamed three thousand years ago, how did Gongzi know this name." ”
Ling Mu put down Xin Miaofan's hand and was stunned.
For Ling Mu's abnormal behavior, Mu Yayao was already surprised.
After a while, Ling Mu lowered his head and asked, "Why did Golden Silk City change to Clear Water City?" ”
Xin Miaofan bit her lip and said with some embarrassment: "Ling Gongzi, this matter is taboo, I can naturally tell you that Gongzi saved my life, but don't talk nonsense when you go out, you will be arrested if someone hears about it." It is rumored that three thousand years ago, His Majesty Hades registered, and asked Miss Jin Miao of Golden Silk City to make a dragon robe for a period of time, Miss Jin Miao happily accepted and agreed, and later Miss Jin Miao personally sent the finished dragon robe on the day His Majesty ascended the throne, and Shen Yu opened the box on the spot excitedly, but it was not a dragon robe, but a shroud, Miss Jin Miao was given to death on the spot, and Golden Silk City was also changed to Qingshui City. ”
Although Ling Mu tried his best to control his emotions, Mu Ayayao and Xin Miaofan seemed to see the clues.
"Ling Gongzi, what's wrong with you......" Xin Miaofan didn't know that he had said something wrong.
Ling Mu calmed down for a moment, looked at Xin Miaofan and asked, "What about the descendants of the Jin family, have they all been killed by the Netherworld?"
Xin Miaofan shook his head, "Your Majesty was merciful, but he only gave Jin Miao to death, and did not get angry with the Jin family, but the Jin family should have the surname later." ”
"What has it become!" Hearing that there were still people alive in the Jin family, Ling Mu seemed a little excited.
Seeing Ling Mu's eager eyes, Xin Miaofan lowered his head and said: "Everyone in the Jin family knows that Jin Miao has committed the capital crime of the Zhujiu clan, but His Majesty is merciful, and the Jin family has also given up the surname of sin, and Jin is Xin." Saying this, Xin Miaofan no longer avoided Ling Mu's eyes, raised his head to look at Ling Mu, and the two looked at each other, "I am the descendant of the Jin family." ”
