Makino roared hysterically like a mad beast, as if it was about to tear apart the young dragon in the center of the dragon hall that had made him so embarrassed. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

And the guards of the Green Pothos Palace who surrounded Mu Tian slowly approached again. The weapons in their hands were also aimed at the young dragon, ready to insert the tip of the weapon into its body at any moment, and the crossbowmen at the door also raised their crossbows and waited for them.

Mu Tian's expression was complicated. She looked at the injured Qinghong beside her, who was still hunched over to protect herself, and the cold blades around her kept approaching her—no, it was towards her own dragon! She felt the hatred on the face of the city lord and the worry on her mother's face. The guests around them had different expressions: some were gloating, some were worried, and some were cold-eyed. And all this, as long as you let these guards come over, and then let their sharp blades plunge into its heart, it will come to an end, and it will become the "future" of the pastoral capital again. It's just -- should I do this?

"Honor, future, loyalty?" Mu Tian kept thinking about the city lord's words, and the white light of the cold blade in front of him stung his eyes. Just as the white light was about to pass by, a scene suddenly flashed in front of his eyes, which was the company of himself and Qinghong all the way from Dragon Valley to Muzhidu.

"Faith!"

Mu Tian's somewhat cloudy vision suddenly became bright again, and the long whip instantly shook the long sword that was about to stab at Qinghong in his hand, and the strong force made the guard with the sword stumble, and then looked surprised that Mu Tian, who was still unarmed just now, now took away his weapon.

In fact, when Mu Tian came to the Dragon Hall, he was told that he was not allowed to wear any weapons. But she still carried the slender whip with her. She remembered her mother saying that the whip was made of a thin, but tough gelatinous object, and that it was a delicate and elegant girdle in the eyes of her friends, and a weapon of life in the face of her enemies. Therefore, no one found out that the ornaments around her waist were actually her long whip.

"Bang!" the sword fell to the ground, crisp and loud.

The other guards were a little afraid to continue approaching when they saw the whip that was as fast as lightning.

"Mu Tian!!"

Mu Yuan's mouth was twisted with anger. Originally, he was about to see the sword inserted into the young dragon's body, and a smile of relief slowly appeared on his face, but the final result made his smile freeze on his face.

"You dare to disobey my orders?!" there was a hint of incredulity in Makino's angry tone, he had thought that Mu Tian would be as loyal to him as her mother, but he didn't expect her to resist his orders. Although this long whip was struck on the iron sword, it was as hot and shameful as it was on his own face.

Mu Tian didn't answer, she knew that once she took this step, there would be no turning back. She slowly spun her body, holding a long whip and looked around the guards vigilantly, seeing that they did not dare to step forward, she thought for a moment before she said to Makino: "Lord Castle, I have always kept loyalty, honor and faith in my heart, if you want to kill my dragon, then please allow me to do it myself!"

The expression on Makino's face changed again, his face wrinkled, and his small eyes narrowed slightly, looking at Mu Tian, as if he was speculating on her words.

"Okay," Makino said with a hint of playfulness, "I'd like to see how you 'do it yourself.'" ”

Mu Xiang seemed to have endless worry in her eyes, she didn't know why her daughter said this, she had a bad premonition, very strong......

Mu Tian was expressionless, and gently leaned down beside Qinghong, as if whispering. When the people around saw this scene, it was the last goodbye between her and the young dragon. But after only a second, Makino's eyes widened suddenly, and his lips squirmed as if he was muttering something.

"Smack!"

The thunderous whip brought people back to reality once again. Except for Mu Xiang, no one could have imagined that at this time, Mu Tian would take a long whip and throw it at the guards facing the door of the Dragon Hall. The unfortunate guard's foot was entangled in an instant, and then the force sent him off the ground. Mu Tian's sudden attack instantly opened a gap in the encirclement, and then the young dragon beside him spitted out poisonous dragon breath while dragging its injured wings towards the gap.

Makino finally came to his senses, and a sharp voice resounded through the Dragon Hall.

"Stop them! Catch them!" No—" Makino's eyes shone with a cold light, "Kill them for me!"

"No......" Mu Xiang muttered helplessly as he looked at the guards who swarmed up. The silver wine glass on the long table was in front of her, but she didn't have the courage to pick it up.

Although the Dragon Hall is spacious, it is not designed for the battlefield, and the officials and nobles have taken refuge on both sides for fear of injuring themselves by mistake. Mu Tian's long whip could not be used at all in this very small range, and she had some scruples every time she struck, not greeting the deadly part of the guard, while the opponent was the opposite, and the move wanted her life. Gradually, she found that the guards who had swarmed up had once again surrounded her and Qinghong.

Mu Tian's forehead was covered with beads of sweat the size of beans, she looked at the swords around her and trapped herself in place like sharp fences, and the blood from the wounds on Qinghong Long's wings had been drained, and her originally turquoise eyes were already a little cloudy, and it was estimated that she would not last long.

Mu Tian clenched his teeth, the long whip seemed to have grown in his hand, and the tiny blood vessels on the surface of his hand that he held hard were slightly protruding. She knew that if Qinghong hadn't been injured at this time, they might still be able to escape, but now she knew that she could only plan for the worst......

She quickly put her hand to her lips, and a burst of chime sounded, and Qinghong on the side also responded with a low roar.

This strange scene greatly eclipsed Makino, because he knew that it was Mu Tian communicating with the young dragon. Sure enough, Mu Tian didn't drag the mud and water, and instantly threw the long whip onto the long sword of one of the attendants, snatched it and threw it into a few piles of guards on the side. Several guards hurriedly dodged the sudden attack, and Mu Tian took the opportunity to quickly run towards the door of the Dragon Hall, but the door was already full of guards armed with strong crossbows.

"Run, keep running!" Makino roared as he watched Mu Tian being blocked by the guards at the door.

However, just after Mu Ye's roar, Mu Tian really continued to run towards the entrance of the Dragon Hall. This seemingly crazy move surprised everyone, and Makino only thought that it was her helpless move. However, when Qinghong beside Mu Tian flew up, he suddenly knew that things were not what he thought. Although the entrance is blocked, there is no obstruction in the sky above the height of more than ten meters.

"Crossbowman, shoot it down!" Quick!" Makino shouted frantically.

The crossbowmen at the door aimed their crossbows at Qinghong, who was not flying high, and they could shoot it down without deviation from this distance.

However, just as they were about to pull the mechanism of their crossbows, Mu Tian's long whip was drawn horizontally. The sudden attack caused the crossbowmen to shoot their bolts in all directions, some of them injuring their own companions by mistake, and there was a miserable wail. And in that instant, Qinghong flew to a height of more than ten meters away from the ground, a distance that made these crossbowmen sigh with admiration, because Qinghong could calmly dodge their attacks.

"Garbage! a bunch of garbage!" Makino's screamed.

Mu Tian's expression on her face softened slightly after she saw Qinghong fly to a safe position, but she felt another danger. Among those embarrassed crossbowmen stood a guard covered in armor, and Mu Tian recognized him, he was the crossbowman who had just shot Qinghong, the captain of the bow and crossbow guard of the Green Pothos Palace. The only thing he had on his body was a pair of blood-red eyes, first looking at the young dragon in the sky, and then glaring at Mu Tian. With a plan, he suddenly aimed the crossbow arrow in his hand at her, and without hesitation, he shot a steel arrow.

Mu Tian only felt a cold light pass through his face, and then the hot feeling spread from the bottom of his heart, as if he was poured with hot magma. She subconsciously touched her face, only to feel that her hands were soaked in red viscous liquid, and she didn't feel pain. It seems that the pain is too extreme to feel it, she thought.

The baby dragon roared in the air, as if it was about to swoop down. Mu Tian directly put his blood-soaked hand to his lips and blew the deed. Then he looked at the young dragon hovering in the sky, and silently thought in his heart: Let's go, let's go!

The young dragon seemed reluctant to leave, but after circling a few times, it flew out of the dragon hall and disappeared into the night, leaving only a long, grumbling roar.

Mu Tian withdrew his gaze and looked at the captain of the guard in front of him who was once again holding a crossbow. She held the long whip's hand, and as soon as her fingers loosened, the long whip fell to the ground. The crossbowmen on the opposite side were also at a loss when they saw such a situation. She turned, slowly walked to the high platform, and walked towards Makino, the guards on both sides spreading out to the sides as she moved.

When Mu Tian revealed her body, everyone saw how terrifying she was now. A few centimeters of blood-red wound on the originally beautiful right side of his face was like another red lip cracked on his face. Blood flowed into the corners of his mouth, dripping on the long green dress, staining half of his body red.

The officials and nobles were all frightened by this scene, but Mu Xiang covered his mouth to prevent his crying from coming out.

Makino watched indifferently as she walked step by step to the center of the dragon hall, and at this moment he was no longer worried about any threat to her, the young dragon in his heart was far more threatening than her.

Mu Tian stopped when she walked to the center of the Dragon Hall, her body weakened and crumbling due to excessive blood loss.

"Lord City Lord," Mu Tian slowly knelt on the cold and smooth ground, blood dripping on the clean ground, scattering into a bloody halo, "I know that I have committed an unforgivable sin, and it is useless to say anything at this time, and I have no complaints about what to do, but-"

"Just don't implicate my mother......" Mu Tian's words made Mu Xiang's body twitch again, and she only prayed for the protection of Long Tu at the moment, hoping that the city lord would be merciful.

Makino looked at Mu Tian, who was still kneeling on the ground with his head held high, and suddenly burst into laughter. The state of madness frightened everyone present, for they had heard a hundred years ago that a tyrannical monarch had ordered the slaughter of all his officials and nobles because he was in a displeasure, and they did not want to follow in his footsteps.

"Lord City Lord," Mu Qing stroked his beard, a meaningful look in the fox's eyes, and said slowly, "In the opinion of the minister, Miss Mu Tian is just confused for a while. The fatigue of the journey, and the lack of understanding of the stubborn nature of the baby dragon...... That's all what made her act stupid...... Anyway, I think I can give her a chance. ”

Mu Xiang looked at the scholar of Muqing University gratefully, although he was a little surprised, but the voice that could stand up and speak for Mu Tian at this time was warm.

Equally unexpected was Makino. He turned his head and looked at Mu Qing suspiciously. I thought to myself: This old thing is usually a virtue that has nothing to do with himself, and he will never intercede if there is no benefit to be gained, but how can he be so kind today?

Makino turned his head back to Mu Tian, her face growing pale, and the long blood centipede made him feel sick.

"How?" Makino asked.

"Miss Mu Tian has always wanted to contribute to the capital of Makino......"

Mu Tian, who was kneeling on the ground, was dizzy, and she felt that the voice in her ears was like a mosquito whispering that had become small and harsh. She felt her eyelids droop out of her control, and finally when the last rays of light were gone, she felt only a hint of relief and a faint sound.

"Tribal Barbarian ......"

"Mu Tian...... Mu Tian!"

The first vague fragment was like the voice of a scholar of the Shepherd University, and it was like the voice of the city lord, and she couldn't tell the difference. And the back, she heard it, it should be her mother's anxious voice, because apart from her, Mu Tian couldn't think of anyone else who would be sad for her. In the end, everything came to peace......

When Mu Tian woke up again, it should be said that she herself was not sure that she was waking up. Because even when she opened her eyes, it was still pitch black. She subconsciously reached for the long whip around her waist, but as soon as she made this gesture, she realized that it was a stupid idea. As her eyes adjusted to the darkness and glanced vaguely at the surrounding facilities, she realized why it was so dark. Because if I'm not mistaken, she's in the dungeon of the Pothos Palace right now.

This dungeon is different from the dungeon in the city of Pasture. There are mainly some officials and nobles who are imprisoned here, most of them are some corrupt criminals, and those who should not be provoked have been thrown here, and there are no some extremely vicious people. Therefore, compared to the pig kennel and dog kennel outside, although it is a cell, there are beds, dressing tables, and even simple toilets.

Although Mu Tian's face was still hot and painful, and her head was dizzy, she understood what was happening—she was locked in a dungeon, waiting for the city lord to deal with her. They shouldn't let themselves die easily, there must be some value to be used, otherwise they wouldn't be here.

She dragged her tired body slowly to the dresser. It was a simple wooden bench with a rusty washbasin in the middle, filled with murky water, and it hadn't been replaced for I don't know how long. There was a cracked mirror above the basin, and when she moved her gaze to the mirror, a horrible face made her body tremble.

"This ...... Is this me?"

A large purple centipede is crawling out of its face. She jerked her hand out to knock it off, but the pain in her heart made her finally admit it...... Although some medicine was sprinkled on the deep wound, the sides of the wound had begun to turn purple. She knew that this centipede would be with her for the rest of her life, and this was the "loyalty" medal that Makino engraved on her face.

Mu Tian sat on the bed dejectedly, remembering everything that had happened, as if it was right in front of him. She couldn't help but fantasize about what would happen if she hadn't come back, but had followed Mu Yuan University scholars to where she was supposed to go? Mu Yuan, Jin Ming, Lu'er, Qingkong...... and her dragon-Qinghong. Thinking of it, Mu Tian felt a heartache, and he was seriously injured and didn't know if he was still alive now. Her lips were parched and white, but she couldn't feel it, the pain in her face had numbed most of her nerves. She just wanted to lie down now, she didn't think about anything, and even that important news didn't matter anymore at this time.

Mu Tian's eyes were blurred, even if she tried to force herself to fall asleep, it was in vain, because the pain seemed to have a force pulling at her, waking her up. Just half-asleep. The iron door of the cell suddenly opened softly, and this imperceptible sound made Mu Tian sit up.

It was the mother, she was pale, her eyes were black and red, and she was no better than herself.

"How long has it been?" Mu Tian wanted to force herself to smile, but she suddenly thought that her smile must be terrifying at this time, so she simply stood up.

Mu Xiang hurriedly helped Mu Tian, who was trembling slightly, and when she touched her daughter's body, she found that she was hot all over her body and had a fever.

"One Day ......"

Mu Xiang took out a water bag from his waist. After Mu Tian took it, although she was so thirsty that she didn't feel it anymore, she still maintained her elegance and drank it in small sips.

Mu Xiang didn't look over, he didn't want to see her now. Because every glance reminded her of the steel arrow, not piercing her face, but piercing her heart.

"Tian'er, they let you marry into the tribe......" Mu Xiang plucked up his courage and said it.

Mu Tian was stunned for a moment, and then calmly let out an "oh". She heard a hint of wind when she was dizzy in the Dragon Hall, but she didn't expect it to be true.

"The son of the patriarch of the Hunting Clan, he ......"

"Is there a difference?" Mu Tian interrupted her mother's introduction, she understood that her mother wanted to make her feel better.

Mu Tian walked up to her mother gently, her slender hand caressing her cheek.

Mu Xiang slowly moved his gaze to her face and found that she was smiling, as if nothing had happened.

"Mother, do you know what my biggest gain from this Dragon Valley promotion is?" Mu Tian said softly.

Mu Xiang understood that the harvest must not be as simple as bringing back a young dragon.

"It's me who understands, loyalty and faith," Mu Tian said word by word as she looked at her mother, "I understand that loyalty should not be greater than faith." ”

"Loyalty should not be greater than faith?" Mu Xiang repeated his daughter's words.

"Mother, tell them that I am willing to marry. If this is the choice of faith......" Mu Tian said slowly.
