Chapter Twenty-Seven: Grapevine
In this way, Muwen was sent back to Liufu.
There was no disturbance, but if you look carefully, you will find that there are several Qin Heng's subordinates lurking outside the mansion, responsible for monitoring Mu Wen's every move.
Mu Wen was very puzzled why Li Chongsen wanted to exonerate himself, and whether Qin Heng was also stupid, if he insisted on confronting him for a while at that time, he would soon be able to pierce the disguise.
Thinking about the scene again, it seems that Qin Heng looked at Li Chongsen with a smile in his eyes, with a sense of unkindness.
Although he didn't know anything about the matter between Qin Heng and Li Chongsen, Mu Wen knew very well that he was suspected by the two of them, and the seemingly peaceful status quo was actually full of crises.
Mu Wen thought about it all night and came to a conclusion: If the enemy does not move, I will not move, if the enemy moves, then Bluestone City will no longer be a safe place.
You can flee at any time, and those close to you are in danger of being implicated.
Mu Wen thought of Liu Li, and it was time to cut off his lingering relationship with her.
The next day.
Bluestone City was completely locked down, and Qin moved to search for suspicious people again, without making any progress, and finally he thought that the sword attendant had fled away again, and he was afraid of his Qin Hall Master's might and would definitely not dare to do it again.
His arrogance relieved Mu Wen's heart.
Before lunch, Liu Yuanhu specially called Mu Wen to him, closed the door, opened his mouth and crackled and reprimanded.
Mu Wen was scolded without raising his head, and said "um" one by one.
The conversation was very long and depressing, and in the end, Mu Wen repeatedly assured Liu Yuanhu that he would not mess around again, and then Liu Yuanhu was let out and joined the ongoing training of the clansmen.
"Hey. ”
In the martial arts training ground behind the house, the young man sat next to an oak tree and looked at the sky alone, with a lonely sigh in his mouth.
Liu Ziqian was coming over to call Mu Wen for battle training, when she heard a sigh, she asked with concern, "Brother Mu Wen, what's wrong with you?"
Muwen did not answer.
This made Liu Ziqian look embarrassed, and then said: "Let's train against each other, otherwise grandpa will be miserable when he comes over and sees the two of us being lazy." ”
Mu Wen replied with three words: "I'm not in the mood." ”
After speaking, he pouted his head, and then looked at the sky in a daze.
Liu Ziqiansuo also sat down and fanned Mu Wen cold, and at this time, a few people slipped over in a ghostly manner.
The leader was the willow monkey, and when he saw Mu Wen's listless appearance, he hurriedly approached and asked, "Mu Wen, you can't have heard those news, have you?" ”
"What's the news? about that swordsman's heresy?"
"Hey, the Zhao family has done a lot of evil, where is the matter of being patronized by that swordsman again still use me to spread it, and the people on the street have already spread it. It's a pity, no one in the Zhao family was killed this time, it's a pity, it's a pity. The willow monkey said.
Mu Wen asked blankly: "Then what do you want to say?" ”
"This, this. Seeing that Mu Wen didn't know yet, the willow monkey hesitated for a few seconds, and couldn't resist his big mouth and reported it truthfully: "Actually, it should be yesterday's news." Did you bump into Zhao Tianqi on the street after you came back, that guy held a grudge in his heart, and threatened to embarrass you at the martial arts competition. We've been training here and we haven't heard about it, but I heard about it this morning. It is said that after what happened last night, Zhao Tianqi felt even more uncomfortable, and he was full of fire and had nowhere to vent, and he was ready to vent with you at the martial arts competition. ”
Mu Wen smiled: "Don't you know how many catties and taels I have, it is estimated that I will lose in a few games, where can I meet Zhao Tianqi." Unless..."
Mu Wen, who was still smiling just now, suddenly stiffened his face: "Could it be that he will cheat in the lottery?"
"Yes, Muwen, think about it. The martial arts tournament was held in the Douling Palace, and the Zhao family had a very different relationship with them. If Zhao Tianqi wants to make some small moves in the lottery process, no one can help him. The willow monkey looked exaggerated and amazed.
Mu Wen said: "Then I will surrender when I play." ”
Such embarrassing words, when they came out of Mu Wen's mouth, they looked very imposing, and the willow monkey was stunned, and his cheeks gloomy came to Mu Wen's ear: "It's not a secret, it is said that Zhao Tianqi has already had a corresponding strategy in this regard." He won't let you meet him in the first game, he will let the people come and meet you first. The competition is to stand in the ring, as soon as the fight starts, they are ready to pounce on you and beat you until you have no chance to shout surrender, until you are half dead!"
"So ruthless, and then beat me into the infirmary?" Muwen pretended to be startled.
Liu Monkey shook his head with a smile, and then cried with a sad face: "No, Zhao Tianqi said that after beating you half to death, let the clansmen who fought against you surrender and let you advance to the advanced match." then continued to be beaten in front of so many people, and constantly humiliated, until finally defeated in the hands of Zhao Tianqi. ”
"I'm grass. This time, Mu Wen was really surprised, and couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth, and then straightened his expression: "Hehe." I have to say that this Zhao Tianqi, in some ways, the ideas in his head are still interesting. ”
Liu Monkey felt sad for Mu Wen: "There are still idle jokes, people are going to bully you openly." Look at how you look and don't worry about yourself at all. ”
"Brother Muwen, this is called not being surprised. Liu Ziqian said.
The willow monkey looked at her: "Wow, you can hear it this way, your ears are so smart." ”
Liu Ziqian covered her mouth and smiled, and soon her eyes were filled with deep worry: "Brother Muwen, why don't you go to this martial arts competition." ”
Mu Wen replied lazily: "Where I don't want to go, I won't go, the Douling Hall stipulates that martial arts practitioners under the age of eighteen are both male and female, and all of them must participate in the martial arts competition, otherwise it will be disrespectful to Qin Dong Qin Hall Master." You see, Brother Yanagi wants to go to the martial arts competition, but it's a pity that he is too old. ”
The two followed Mu Wen's gaze, and in the far corner, Liu Sheng was supervising the training of the clansmen with a dead face. In fact, he is not an overseer, this girl is just complaining to the sky, what do you have to go and don't train hard, Lao Tzu can't find the door if he wants to... In short, he is still worried about the fact that he can't participate in the martial arts conference.
"Uhhh
When he was about to say goodbye, the willow monkey suddenly remembered something, and mysteriously pulled Mu Wen to the side: "Mu Wen, there is something I want to squeak with you." ”
"What's the matter?" asked Muwen rhetorically.
The willow monkey glanced at Liu Ziqian, pulled Mu Wen back eight steps, and said after making sure that Liu Ziqian couldn't hear it: "Have you quarreled with Miss Liu Li in the past two days?" ”
"Nope. Mu Wen was strange, thought for a while and said: "But she has ignored me since yesterday afternoon, and then I accosted her on the way back from training, she snorted at me inexplicably, and then walked away without looking back." Hey, monkey, why are you asking me this?"
Liu Monkey nodded his chin pretending to be old and heavy, with a guessed expression, and whispered: "Tell me what is going on with you and Ziqian." Tell me honestly, it was Miss Liu Li who ordered me to ask you. ”
"She asked you to ask me" Mu Wen silently muttered, looked towards the place where Liu Li was, and found that Liu Li was also secretly looking at him, and suddenly the two met their eyes.
However, Liu Li immediately turned her head and pretended that the glance was just a coincidence.
The voice of the willow monkey in his ear came nervously: "Don't look, don't look there." I was scared to death, although the eldest lady asked me to ask you, but she didn't say let me tell you that she asked me to ask you. ”
Mu Wen twitched the corners of his mouth and said to the willow monkey, "Are you tired?"
"It's a bit of a tongue-twister, that's what it means anyway. ”
Liu Monkey explained: "You, Mu Wen, have been too close to Ziqian recently. Then, Miss Liu Li was jealous, she didn't say anything about it because of her face, but she couldn't let it go in her heart, so she asked me to help her ask you. You also know that the young lady has a stubborn temper and loves face, so she repeatedly asked not to tell you that she asked me to ask. In short, you and Liu Ziqian are too close, and Miss Liu Li is very unhappy. ”
Mu Wen lowered his head and thought for a while, and said slowly: "Let her go." ”
