Chapter 121: Arson

The four Shadowmen brought food and water into their tents, which housed a man. This man looked slightly older than Mu Xiaofeng and the others, probably fifteen or sixteen years old. This man is very handsome, with a pair of big eyes under slender eyebrows, a high nose bridge and a perfect thin lips, and a noble air all over his body. It seems that this person is the prince of the overlord.

When the four Shadow Men saw the Overlord Prince, they half-knelt down and saluted him, and the Overlord Prince's glance at the men, and when he saw that there was one person missing, he asked, "Why are there only four of you, you boss?" ”

The four of them lowered their heads, not daring to face the gaze of the overlord prince. One of them replied in a whisper, "We were attacked, and the boss stayed behind to cover us." ”

After hearing this, the prince frowned, then threw the food in his hand on the ground, and said angrily: "First the people of the Luo family, and now the people of my personal guard, there are fewer and fewer of our people. I finally escaped from the beast kingdom, this is my perfect opportunity to take the throne, if I fail, you will wait to die. The four shadow men were frightened by the angry overlord prince and lay directly on the ground, this overlord prince was mentioned by the white hoof prince before, originally the white hoof wanted to borrow him to keep Zhou Linlin, but the civil strife in the beast kingdom made the overlord prince take the opportunity to leave.

Just when the overlord was still angry, a man walked into the tent. The man was dressed in civilian clothes, with two bright knives pinned to his waist. Hidden beneath the long wavy blond hair is a beautiful face, a female double-knife shadowman. When the prince saw this person, he immediately stood up, and he blamed her: "Sister, where did you go?" Did you know that this place is particularly dangerous, and you can't just run around. ”

This girl is the princess of the overlord, and she also participated in this marriage contest with the prince of the overlord. The princess gave her brother a roll of the eyes, then sat down next to him, picked up the food and water in the tent and devoured it. Seeing that his sister was out of grace, the prince of the overlord motioned for the four Shadow Ones to step back first.

When the princess saw that the four Shadow Ones were gone, she told her brother while eating, "I'm tired to death!" I was so bored here that I went out for a walk. The person who defeated their team this time also happened to be the one who defeated the Luo family, and I observed it for a long time on the side, and they were very powerful. ”

After hearing this, the prince nodded, but still complained to his sister very dissatisfied: "Don't talk while you still have something in your mouth!" Father has spoiled you so much that you have no rules at all. The princess ignored her brother, rolled her eyes again, and continued to eat.

The overlord shook his head, then walked out of the tent. And there were many people outside the tent, and they all knelt down to salute when they saw the prince of the overlord. The prince glanced at his entourage, and his people were getting fewer and fewer day by day. He knew that if he continued like this, he would not be able to stay so leisurely. The prince said to his entourage, "I have lost a lot of people now, you must quickly find the team that is getting in the way." ”

After hearing this, one of them shook his head, and he said to the prince of the overlord: "Your Royal Highness, this is too difficult. There are so many tents here that they may take refuge in one of them, and they keep moving. It's hard to catch them. ”

The prince nodded, it was indeed difficult to find Mu Xiaofeng and them. But he soon had a smile on his face, and he had already thought of a way. The prince walked over to a torch that was planted near the tent, then pulled it out and handed it to one of his attendants. The prince looked at the torch and said, "Then burn all the tents you have searched, so that they have nowhere to escape." ”

At this time, Mu Xiaofeng didn't know that the prince was searching for them, and they were sleeping peacefully in a tent.

Early the next morning, as soon as the sun appeared, Mu Xiaofeng got up, and when he walked out of the tent, he found that Zhou Linlin was already standing there and looking around. Zhou Linlin's slightly messy long hair couldn't hide her beauty, and Shui Ling's big eyes revealed a serious and serious look. Mu Xiaofeng stepped forward to greet Zhou Linlin, "Why did you get up so early, wasn't it a silent vigil yesterday?" ”

Zhou Linlin turned her head to look at Mu Xiaofeng, revealing a sweet smile, then continued to observe the surrounding situation, and said: "We can't let a person stay awake all night, this affects his physical strength too much, I feel that the current situation is very bad." So I slept for a while and got up for him. Mu Xiaofeng nodded, he could also have a premonition that things would get worse and worse, after all, the overlord prince had already lost many of his subordinates, and their actions must have alarmed the overlord prince.

At this time, a wisp of green smoke rose from the sky, which was the direction of the center of the martial arts arena, and Zhou Linlin and Mu Xiaofeng both discovered this situation. The two of them looked at each other, then ran into the tent to wake everyone up. After Mu Xiaofeng and the others were ready, they found that the green smoke on the horizon had turned into a thick fog.

Mu Xiaofeng: They were a little overwhelmed, they didn't know whether they should go in the direction of the smoke or not. But the smoke was getting louder and louder, and now the whole sky was covered with a thick black fog. At this time, several people ran from the place where the smoke appeared, and the clothes on these people were a little torn, and it seemed that they had already experienced a fight.

Mu Xiaofeng rushed forward, stopped a person who had escaped, and asked him what was going on in front of him. After this person was caught by Mu Xiaofeng, he was a little panicked, and while desperately trying to break free of Mu Xiaofeng, he said: "There is a team of people in front, they broke into the tent when they saw it, and then snatched all the useful things. After snatching it, they also set fire to the tent. Let go of me! I'm no match for them at all. After saying this, Mu Xiaofeng let go of his hand, and the person ran away like crazy.

At this time, King Jun was sitting on the throne last week and listening to the various reports given to him by the ministers. Zhou Heming was a little new, his eyes were a little wandering, and he didn't know what he was thinking in his heart. And Zhou Hesheng, who was sitting near him, found that Zhou Heming was not in a state, so he deliberately coughed twice to remind Zhou Heming.

At this time, a guard rushed into the palace, and then knelt in front of Zhou Heming, and reported: "Report to the king, there was a fire in the martial arts arena, and many tents were burned inside, it seems that someone is deliberately setting fire." ”

When Zhou Heming heard this, he immediately became energetic, he knew that his sister was still in the martial arts arena. Zhou Heming immediately asked the guard, "Did the princess and Mu Xiaofeng come out of the martial arts arena?" The guard shook his head and told Zhou Heming that there were no people who escaped from the martial arts arena.

Zhou Heming was a little overwhelmed, he turned his head to look at his brother Zhou Hesheng, and asked in a low voice, "Brother, what should I do?" Do you want to stop this marriage contest? ”

After Zhou Hesheng heard this, he first bowed his head to Zhou Heming, and then said calmly: "Your Majesty, the minister feels that although it is unreasonable to set fire to the tent, it is not against the rules. If the king wants to stop this marriage contest, it will affect the king's prestige and damage the king's reputation. ”

Zhou Heming felt that it made sense, so he nodded. And Zhou Hesheng's words were heard by Qian Rolling, who disagreed, and he stood up and reprimanded sharply: "Your Majesty! If you don't stop the marriage contest now, if the smoke enters the royal capital, then how will we live? After Qian Rolling finished speaking, the three ministers of the Hu, Kong, and Sun families also stood up and asked Zhou Heming to stop this marriage competition.

Zhou Hesheng felt a little angry when he saw that the people of the four major families had all come forward. He stood up from his seat, then pointed to the ministers of the four major families, and said sharply, "You are presumptuous! If you can't live in the royal capital, get out. You courtiers are not there to enjoy life in the king's capital! Gather all the wind elemental erudites to the city walls, and blow the smoke away. Zhou Hesheng stood up this time to calm the people of the four major families, they could only bow their heads silently, not daring to speak.

Zhou Heming sensed a hint of embarrassment in the atmosphere, so he waved his hand and said softly: "You all heard what my brother Wang said, why don't you do it?" After hearing this, the people of the four major families all knelt down and saluted, and then slowly left the palace.

Qian Rolling walked out of the palace with the people of the other three major families, he felt ashamed and angry, and he wanted to take revenge on Zhou Hesheng. Qian Rolling stopped the other three, then saluted the three of them and said, "Lord Hu! Kong-sama! Lord Sun! After the princess's marriage contest is over, I invite you to come to my house, and I have important matters to discuss with you. After hearing this, the people of the other three families nodded and promised that the money would roll, so they dispersed.

In the martial arts arena, Mu Xiaofeng told the others about the situation, and they were all shocked by this sudden situation. Because there are no rules that can say that this behavior is wrong, no one else can stop this group of arsonists except the people participating in the marriage contest.

Mu Xiaofeng asked at this time, "Should we stop this group of arsonists?" After Mu Xiaofeng raised this question, everyone fell into deep thought. If they try to stop this group of arsonists, then they will definitely consume a lot of physical strength, which is very detrimental to their best to fight the prince of the overlord.

Zhou Linlin looked at the smoke billowing in front of her, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she said to the others: "Let's go and see who is setting the fire." If it is the one who overlords the prince, we will not move for the time being. If it's someone else, we're going to stop them, because if there are more people left, the more bad it will be for the overlord. Now that Zhou Linlin had spoken, everyone had no objections, and they set off towards the place where the smoke came out.
