Chen Mu was stunned when he heard this, and then immediately frowned.

He didn't expect that someone would dare to send someone to follow him.

Could it be that the news of his visit to the county government just now leaked out, so that the people who were staring at him in the court noticed that he was in this town?

No......

No way.

The news could not have spread so quickly.

Even if he came and the news of this town leaked out, it would take five or six days for the people in the capital to know about it and for them to take action.

Then it should be the people of this town who intend to do it to themselves.

Who could it be?

Chen Mu also frowned in some surprise, and turned his head to look in the direction behind him.

Seeing a few figures flashing by on the corner of the street, Chen Mu's eyes moved slightly.

He glanced up in the direction of his men.

"It's a couple of ruffians with some skills."

The leader of the guard stepped forward, arched his hand, and said so.

Hearing this, Chen Mu nodded silently.

He knew it in his heart, and immediately guessed that most of the people who were eyeing him were Boss Xu.

Hey, he also told the county magistrate and Lord He in the afternoon, saying that most of the merchants would not do it to themselves.

He didn't expect it.

This man just doesn't talk about it.

Chen Mu thought about it in his heart, he sighed secretly and shook his head.

He glanced at the guard, and then led Meng Qing towards the crowded street.

The ruffians noticed that Chen Mu turned his head and glanced in their direction, and they were afraid that they would be discovered, so they hid in the corner.

The big man who took the lead pinched his fingers, calculated the time, and estimated that Chen Mu and Meng Qing were about to go away, and then the big man took someone out of the corner.

Just as he was about to chase in the direction where Chen Mu and Meng Qing left, the big man felt a flash in front of him.

The next moment, several figures appeared in front of him.

The big man was stunned, and looked up in the direction of the figures.

When it was clear who those figures were, the big man's face changed slightly.

Isn't this the same guard who followed those two?

The big man gasped and took a step back uneasily.

The defenders stepped forward with a sneer.

They forced the men into the alley, and moments later, screams came from within the alley.

The sound was so terrible that it even alarmed the people who were wandering in the street market not far away.

The people stopped, then turned to look at each other.

They didn't want to meddle in their affairs, and after a moment of silence, they all turned and hurried away, and no one entered the alley at all.

A moment later, Chen Mu's escort left the alley and walked to Chen Mu and Meng Qing's side.

Chen Mu turned his head and glanced in their direction, nodding quietly.

Seeing this, Meng Qing also sighed lightly, shaking her head and muttering.

"A bunch of fools, it's not good to provoke anyone, but they want to provoke us, heh, give them a lesson today."

Chen Mu chuckled lightly when he heard Meng Qing say this, he didn't say much, he only raised his hand and took Meng Qing's hand, took Meng Qing around the market, and walked around the market.

Meng Qing felt tired, seeing that the sky was getting dark, and the people in the market also turned their heads and walked towards their residences, Chen Mu took Meng Qing to the direction of the inn.

On the other hand, the ruffians and hooligans who were sent by Boss Xu to trouble Chen Mu were also you holding me, and I supported you, and ran back to Boss Xu's mansion in embarrassment.

Boss Xu is still holding the beauty in his house and waiting for the good news.

originally thought that by strategizing, he could scare Chen Mu and Meng Qing away and let them release Li Mao.

As a result, he didn't expect it, and waited and waited, but waited for a group of embarrassed ruffians and hooligans.

"That'...... Those two guys' guards were so good that we weren't their match at all. ”

"Those guards are skilled, and we ruffians can't handle them."

"My lord, in my opinion, you better not provoke those two."

There was a ruffian hooligan who kowtowed again and again, wanting Boss Xu to stop,

When Boss Xu saw the appearance of those ruffians and hooligans, he was so angry that his eyes widened.

What kind of person is he?

Although it is not possible to cover the sky with one hand in this town, the merchants in this town have to obey his orders!

Boss Xu, who has long been accustomed to calling the wind and rain among the merchants in the town, thinks that there is nothing he can't do in this town.

He has always had a good relationship with the county magistrate of the county government, and he will move around during the New Year's holidays.

The county magistrate of the county government has never embarrassed him when he does things, because he has some status in the town chamber of commerce.

It is precisely because of this that this Boss Xu is very proud, and he thinks that he is the soil emperor of this town.

On weekdays, if you want to find a merchant to do things, no one dares to lose his face.

Only the stinky boy surnamed Li sent people to him several times to do something, wanting him to sell the equipment in his hand to him.

But the stinky boy gritted his teeth, and he didn't sell it if he was killed, he obviously wanted the lion to open his mouth.

Ho, he took ten taels of silver to buy the broken copper and iron that the stinky boy studied, and he dared not sell it?

gave the stinky boy ten taels of silver, and he felt a loss!

The more Boss Xu thought about it, the more indignant he felt, he squinted his eyes slightly, and saw that those ruffians looked terrified.

Boss Xu angrily rushed forward and kicked out, kicking one of the ruffians to the point that he staggered back a few steps, and fell to the ground with a thud.

The ruffian raised his head and glanced in the direction of Boss Xu, but he didn't dare to say anything at all.

Seeing that Boss Xu's anger was turning, after careful planning, he didn't plan to let Chen Mu and Meng Qing go, and the few ruffians looked at each other.

One of them stepped forward and said boldly to Boss Xu.

Xu ...... Boss Xu's matter this time, we really can't do it, if you have an idea, you can let someone else do it, and we can return all the money you gave us before. ”

"That'...... The pair of young men and women brought to his subordinates were really not ordinary people, and I looked at their style, as if they were ...... It seems to be a style only available to the guards in Beijing! ”

"Most of them are trained, that pair of young men and women, you have also checked before, it seems that they are not from our town, maybe they are really from the capital!"

"If you're from the capital, then you'...... You can't be provoked! ”

These ruffians and hooligans look at these five big and three coarse, like reckless men, but in fact, whether what Boss Xu is doing is right or wrong, they have a clear conscience in their hearts.

It's just that seeing that the white silver given by Boss Xu is really tempting, they are willing to work for Boss Xu.

But when they had received it, they would take their lives, but they would not do it.

Seeing that Boss Xu still didn't plan to let go of Chen Mu and Meng Qing, those ruffians gritted their teeth and stepped forward to persuade them at the risk of being beaten by Boss Xu.
