As soon as Xiao Qingyan's words fell, more than a dozen fierce soldiers with long knives in their hands poured in behind him. These soldiers mercilessly attacked Xiao Chengyong and Gu Xiaomei, who were still children, and the cold light of the long knife made Xiao Chengyong's mind blank with fear, and he stood there and couldn't move.

That is, at the moment when Xiao Chengyong and Gu Xiaomei were certain to die, there was a sudden gust of wind behind these soldiers, and a cloud of black shadows and ghosts passed by them. I saw that the soldier who was still holding a knife to find Xiao Chengyong and Gu Xiaomei for their lives a moment ago was now weakly paralyzed on the ground, although he was still panting and his eyes were open, he couldn't move anymore.

"Who, who's there?"

Xiao Qingyan was shocked, drew his sword, and looked around vigilantly, only to see a black figure gradually appear in the corner of the dark part of the palace.

The man in black was black from head to toe, and the black satin shirt with a tight belt showed off the man's thin, elongated figure and feminine demeanor. The mask blocked the man's mouth, but it did not block the man's low, powerful but soul-striking voice that seemed to be out of the world.

"His Royal Highness King Wu, the act of killing children for no reason is too despicable. ”

Hearing the man speak, Xiao Qingyan was even more panicked, almost retreating behind Feng Yi, and his momentum in speaking was also half weaker.

"I ...... I ask you, who are you?"

The identity of this person is a mystery, as if he is not similar to the people of this world at all. Because in this world, there is simply no way that anyone can silently pass through the more than 10,000 soldiers scattered in the palace and appear in the Longhua Palace so quietly.

Xiao Qingyan hated this passive feeling, he didn't know anything about the other party, but the other party knew him well, he clenched his fists and gasped, although he was afraid in his heart, he couldn't hide his resentment towards the man who suddenly appeared.

"No name, not enough to worry about. ”

After responding briefly to these eight words, the man in black no longer continued to argue with Xiao Qingyan and the others, picked up Xiao Chengyong and Gu Xiaomei with both hands and disappeared without a trace in a gust of wind.

Daisi Nong's House.

At this moment, Gu Liancheng was pacing around the door of Gu Xiaomei's bedroom, his eyebrows furrowed and his face worried. It had been half a day since Mu Xize had taken Xiao Chengyong and his daughter Gu Xiaomei back to Dasi Nong's Mansion under everyone's noses, but the two children were still lying motionless on the bed, as if they were dead.

Gu Liancheng has always respected Mu Xize, but in the face of today's situation, he can no longer control himself and blame Mu Xize.

"Childe, can't you think of a safe way to bring the two children out of the stun!"

Mu Xize was not annoyed, glanced at Gu Liancheng, and said aggrievedly: "Hey, Liancheng, you really have a daughter and forgot your master." Now for the sake of your daughter and Xiao Qingyu's seed, you blame me, the master who sacrificed his life to help you. ”

Gu Liancheng realized that what he said just now was indeed a bit excessive, and he apologized very reluctantly: "Childe, you know that I didn't mean that. ”

Mu Xize didn't continue to raise the bar with Gu Liancheng, patted Gu Liancheng's shoulder to show comfort, and then looked into the house and said: "Liancheng don't worry, these two children will be fine, and they have been delayed in waking up now, probably because they are too tired these days, not because they are not in good health." ”

The tacit understanding over the years made Gu Liancheng feel what Mu Xize wanted to say but couldn't say at the moment when Mu Xize's words fell.

For a long time, Mu Xize and the Neidan left by Rumo have never been completely integrated, and he has suffered too many injuries when he exists in the world as Mu Bai, so he has a time limit to exist in the world as a human being, and what he has to do in this limited time is not only to save Gu Xiaomei's life, but also to help Ye Ningxiang turn defeat into victory.

"Childe, it's enough for me to have me, little sister, you better do what you want. ”

The town closest to Yingdu City used to be peaceful, but now it is tense, because it is the closest to the Anyou Temple where Ye Ningxiang escaped, and it is also the most likely hiding place for Ye Ningxiang.

In order to find Ye Ningxiang's whereabouts, there were a lot of patrolling soldiers in this town, and the soldiers each held a portrait of Ye Ningxiang in their hands.

At this moment, Ye Ningxiang is really in this town, but she is a woman dressed as a man, in order to be more realistic, Ye Ningxiang deliberately darkened her cheeks, and put two strands of mustache on her mouth, looking like a businessman who traveled from south to north.

Guarding her closely behind her was Cheng Ajiu, the master of the Great Bright Moon Palace, and the shadow guards who had outstanding martial arts skills before were now disguised and scattered in all corners of the town.

I wanted to hurry to the southwest to meet Wei Xun, but people are not as good as heaven, Ye Ningxiang and his party were besieged as soon as they entered this town with not many people, and they didn't find an effective way to break through for several days.

There is a tea stall at the gate of the town, Ye Ningxiang and Cheng Ajiu sit here drinking tea as always, secretly spying on every move at the city gate, trying to find an opportunity to rush out of the city gate.

It was already bad luck, but even if she drank tea, Ye Ningxiang couldn't live in peace, because just as Ye Ningxiang picked up the teacup and was about to drink tea, a drunkard full of alcohol suddenly came to her side, and this drunk staggered towards Ye Ningxiang with hatred while drinking.

This collision, this drunk didn't have anything, but Ye Ningxiang was not so lucky, there was no cup of hot tea left, all of it was sprinkled on Ye Ningxiang's clothes. At this sensitive moment, even if she Ye Ningxiang was angry, she would never dare to shout and recruit the guards patrolling in the city, so this big dumb loss Ye Ningxiang had nothing left and ate it all into her stomach.

Ye Ningxiang frowned tightly while hatefully wiping away the tea left on her clothes, but between this stroking of the clothes, Ye Ningxiang gave birth to a strange feeling. She carefully touched the placket of her chest, as if something paper had quietly hidden in her chest.

She cautiously took out the note from her chest with wide eyes and carefully opened the note under the table, on which these words were written: I lead away the pursuers, and you and Ah Jiu are waiting for an opportunity to escape. Shocked, Ye Ningxiang hurriedly looked around for the trace of the drunk, but he didn't find half a figure.

At this moment, a man in black wearing a mask suddenly appeared on the street leading to the city gate. The man only had one pair of eyes exposed, but there was a deep chill in his eyes, which made people dare not look at him.

Sure enough, it was the same as Mu Xize expected, appearing in the town with such a cold posture could easily attract the attention of everyone in the city to him. Seeing that more and more sergeants were gathering on his side, Mu Xize became even more presumptuous, and directly punched the soldier closest to him, and the unfortunate soldier fell to the ground with a face full of disbelief.

What followed was a vicious fight, and Mu Xize fought alone with hundreds of sergeants around him. And Ye Ningxiang also obeyed Mu Xize's instructions, and escaped from the town with Cheng Ajiu in the chaos.

On the wilderness, next to a huge mountain rock, Ye Ningxiang leaned there tiredly, and sweat dripped.

"That person is from the Great Ming Moon Palace?"

Cheng Ajiu, who was also exhausted like Ye Ningxiang, showed a look of doubt on his face, shook his head and said, "No, I don't know who he is." Or in my impression, there was no such person on the rivers and lakes as there was just now. ”

The two of them, who had only rested here for a moment, were once again in danger, because the pursuers who had just been thrown off had already caught up again. Not from one direction, but from all directions, they besieged Ye Ningxiang.

Ye Ningxiang propped up the ground with her sword, reluctantly got up, and looked at Cheng Ajiu, as if asking them how to escape. But what she got in exchange was not a desperate countermeasure, but a long sigh. It seems that today is the death period of her Ye Ningxiang, and she can't run away.

Just as Ye Ningxiang hesitated, a male voice suddenly came to mind behind her, and the down-to-earth and powerful voice made Ye Ningxiang suddenly feel confident.

"What are you still doing in a daze, why don't you run, stand here and wait for death?"

Then, before Ye Ningxiang could react, Mu Xize had already taken Ye Ningxiang's hand and ran towards the side with fewer soldiers.

Ye Ningxiang felt that the man holding her hand at this moment was very magical, and she couldn't see clearly how he hurt people, and how he took her out of the layers of siege of the pursuers unscathed. But all those who tried to snatch her from the man's hands, and tried to kill her, were all knocked to the ground by the man, and could no longer move.

At night, the chasing soldiers in the daytime had been left far behind because of Mu Xize, and now, although Ye Ningxiang was a little embarrassed, she no longer had to worry about her life.

She lay lazily on the grass despite the dirt, not saying much, not asking much, listening to the cicadas and birds, and almost falling asleep.

"You...... You're going to sleep now?"

Mu Xize thought that Ye Ningxiang would chase after him and force himself to question because he was curious about his identity, so when he saw Ye Ningxiang's completely unconventional approach, he was suddenly puzzled.

"I'm going to be in a hurry tomorrow, so naturally I'll have to go to bed early. Shaoxia does not show his true face, there must be something unspeakable, but in any case, Shaoxia's kindness to Ning Xiang, Ning Xiang is unforgettable. If the young man needs my Ye Ningxiang's help in the future, Ningxiang will definitely go to the soup and go to the fire, and he will not hesitate. ”

However, Mu Xize's response also surprised Ye Ningxiang. He took off his coat and gently draped it on Ye Ningxiang's body, patted Ye Ningxiang's shoulder again, and said with a smile: "I won't let you go to the soup even if I have something, go to sleep quickly." ”

Seeing that Ye Ningxiang had fallen asleep, Mu Xize slowly got up and walked lightly in the direction away from Ye Ningxiang. But he hadn't taken a few steps before he felt a chill around his neck, as if some sharp flakes had pressed against it.

"Tell me, who are you, and who did you send from?"

Cheng Ajiu asked hatefully while holding the sword on Mu Xize's neck.

No, the man in front of Ah Jiu was not quite the same as the person he had seen before, the sword was on his neck, but his face did not change, and he even smiled, and he reached out and touched the sword in Cheng Ah Jiu's hand very presumptuously.

"Good sword, good sword! Gu Liancheng gave it to you!"

"You...... Do you recognize my Master?"

"Yes, of course. ”

As he spoke, Mu Xize had already removed the sword around his neck, and he could feel his smile through the mask.

"I'm his friend, from Qingming Mountain, and I've come here to help you. ”

Before leaving, Gu Liancheng said that he was going to Qingming Mountain, so this person's words didn't seem to be a lie. Although he felt that this person was a good person who really helped them, Cheng Ajiu couldn't help but ask: "How can I trust you?"

Mu Xize smiled, and unhurriedly took out a jade pendant with exquisite workmanship from his chest.

"This is Gu Liancheng's belongings, now you can be trusted. ”

Seeing this jade pendant, Cheng Ajiu was relieved, and his wrinkled facial features gradually relaxed, revealing a long-lost smile.

"It's Ah Jiu who offended the seniors, and I ask the seniors not to be surprised. Also, thank you for your life-saving grace. ”
