Chapter 215: Repaying Grievances with Virtue
Seeing that Yu Zhong easily defeated the two people of the Pu family, Master Mu didn't know whether to be afraid or happy, and the expression on his face had long been distorted by pain.
"Who are you and what do you want to do?" asked Master Mu in horror.
Yu Zhong didn't answer, found a few wooden sticks, tore off a few pieces of cloth, made a simple splint for Master Mu, and bandaged his broken right arm. Immediately afterwards, he clicked on several acupuncture points on his arm to relieve his pain.
"That's a lot better. Yu Zhong said.
"Who the hell are you and why did you save me. Master Mu knew at this time that the person in front of him was not here to kill him, and his mood finally stabilized a little.
But in the blink of an eye, he was startled again, because Yu Zhong took off his mask. He screamed in fear as he turned his head to run. Who knew that he was grabbed by Yu Zhong and instantly sealed several of his big holes.
Immediately he collapsed to the ground weakly, unable to move again.
"What are you running, when I finish my words, it's not too late for you to run. Yu Zhong said slowly.
"I'm trying to deal with you, why do you want to save me?" asked Master Mu puzzled.
"I know that you are not the one behind the scenes, who sent these two people who came to kill you, I don't need to say more. If you want to survive now, there is no second way to go except to cooperate with me. Yu Zhong said.
Hearing his words, Master Mu fell silent. Indeed, if it weren't for the Pu family's instigation behind the scenes, he would just be the leader of an underground organization, wouldn't it be more comfortable to be his own sect leader than anything else.
But the Pu family's forces in the south can be said to cover the sky with one hand, and if they don't do their errands well, they can take the lives of others at will. Master Mu was just forced by the momentum and had to bow to them.
Now that the Pu family is ruthless and has torn his face, why should he still be ashamed of the Pu family. Thinking of this, Mu Shiyou made a heart, determined to turn his face with the Pu family.
"How are you going to cooperate?" he asked, word for word.
"Quite simply, I want the truth. What kind of grievances are there between the Pu family and the Demon Sect? You were the altar master of the Demon Sect back then, so you must know something. Yu replied. His voice was not loud, but it was like throwing a boulder into the calm water of a lake, which shocked Master Mu.
Seeing his expression so shocked, Yu Zhong knew that he had guessed that there must be some ulterior secret in this.
At this moment, there were huge waves in the hearts of Master Mu, and there were not many people who knew about that incident back then, but there are not many people who are still alive now. In fact, he also knew that if he hadn't had some use value for the Pu family, I am afraid that he would have been wiped out a long time ago, where could he still live so freely.
He looked at the rest of the weight in front of him, and he really couldn't believe that such a young man wanted to investigate the old affairs of the Pu family, which was tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg.
But at this moment, there seemed to be a kind of magic power in Yu Chong's body, which made Master Mu want to believe him very much.
"Regarding the entanglement between the Pu family and the Demon Sect, I do know something inside. But what happened back then seems so incredible that even if it were to be said, I am afraid that no one would believe it, unless we can find evidence. Mu Shiyou said.
"What happened back then?" Yu Zhong asked, already having a rough guess in his mind.
At this moment, there were suddenly several sounds of breaking the wind, and Yu Zhong instinctively pushed Master Mu away. I saw a hidden weapon hit the ground and broke on the spot, and one end of it was deeply sunk into the stone.
"Who is it!" Yu shouted loudly, getting up and looking around, only to hear the sound of the wind breaking through his clothes, and the assassin had disappeared into the mountains and forests.
Listening to the sound, the assassin sent out a total of three hidden weapons, one shot at Master Mu, and the other two went nowhere. Yu Zhong took a closer look and found that the two subordinates of the Pu family had already been killed by a secret weapon.
This person was able to fire three hidden weapons in an instant, attacking three people respectively, if it weren't for Yu Chong's quick reaction, at this moment, Master Mu would have become a cold corpse like these two people.
Yu Zhong squatted down, picked up half of the hidden weapon, and took it in his hand to examine it carefully. This thing looks like an osmanthus flower, in the shape of a four-edged shape, although it is sharp, it does not look like a hidden weapon that can be killed instantly, and there seems to be the sound of a machine spring under the press.
He looked to the ground, and saw that there was a small hole in the stone face that had just been hit by the hidden weapon, and if he didn't pay attention to it, he wouldn't notice it at all. And the chests of the two Pu family descendants who were killed by the hidden weapon also had a blood hole of the same size.
At this time, Yu Zhong knew that the fatal thing of this secret weapon was not the sharp four blades, but a steel needle hidden in the mechanism. When a hidden weapon hits an enemy, the steel needle in the trap will be triggered instantly, piercing the person's body. If it hits the vital point, it will naturally be fatal with one blow.
"Osmanthus needle!" Master Mu was shocked when he saw the hidden weapon in Yu Chong's hand.
"Why, do you know the origin of this secret weapon?" Yu Zhong asked.
"Here he is...... He's coming to punish me......" Master Mu collapsed on the ground, looking very frightened. No matter what Yu Zhong asked, he was incoherent and didn't know what to say.
Seeing the state of Master Mu, Yu Zhong knew that he couldn't ask anything for a while. The most important thing now is to get him out of here first and catch up with the group.
On the other side, the dart team marched normally, and under the cover of Bai Li Shu and Ye Xiaoxiao, Yu Chong's disappearance was not discovered.
In the evening, they arrived at a village. In such a mountainous area, it is rare to have such a place for the team to rest and rest.
Completely different from the attitude of the people in the city towards the Pu family, the villagers here are very enthusiastic about the arrival of everyone, vacating the best houses for everyone, and preparing a lot of special game from the mountains.
After inquiring about it, I learned that this village is called Yan Village, and many years ago there was a flash flood, and the houses in the whole village were submerged and collapsed, and many people died at that time.
At that time, Pu Yan, the head of the Pu family, happened to pass by, and when he saw this, he immediately led the people of the Pu family to help them rebuild the village in a new location, and sent someone to send a lot of daily necessities afterwards.
This can be said to be the grace of reinvention for the village names, so in order to let future generations remember the blessing of the Pu family, they deliberately renamed the village Yan Village.
From now on, as long as the people of the Pu family pass by here, they will enter the village to rest, visit the villagers by the way, and bring Pu Yan's greetings. Therefore, the people of this village will always be very enthusiastic about the people of the Pu family.
After listening to this story, Bai Liyu was also emotional, such a chivalrous person, in the prime of life, suddenly suffered a catastrophe, which is really a big loss for martial arts.
"It's just that it seems that the villagers don't know the news of Pu Yan's death yet. Ye Xiaoxiao said sadly.
"Maybe it's a good thing that I don't know, even if some people die, they will live forever in people's hearts. Baili replied.
At this time, in Pu Huan's room, a subordinate came in and handed over a secret letter. He took the secret letter, opened it and read it carefully.
"Big butler, what did the second master say?" asked the servant.
"The second master agreed with our handling of Master Mu's affairs, and let us stand still for the time being, and he will have his own arrangements when everything arrives in Jingjiang Mansion. Pu Huan replied as he lit the secret letter with a candle flame and burned it to the ground.
"Yes!" the subordinate retreated.
The night in the mountain village was very quiet, and from time to time there were a few howls of wild beasts.
"I don't know what's going on over there. Baili Shu lay on the bed, tossing and turning and unable to sleep.
Suddenly, someone outside knocked softly on his window.
"Who?" asked Baili Shu softly.
"It's me!" a familiar voice came from outside the window.
Baili Yu hurriedly opened the window, and a black shadow rushed in instantly, and sure enough, it was Yu Zhong.
"Are you alright? Baili Shu's face was full of joy.
"There were some twists and turns, but Master Mu was finally saved by me. Yu Zhong pointed out the window. I saw that Master Mu was like a puddle of mud, slumped on horseback, as if he had fallen asleep.
It turned out that he was extremely nervous since he saw the plum blossom needle. In order to avoid accidents, Yu Zhong ordered his sleeping hole and hurried all the way to catch up.
The two of them worked together to get Master Mu into the house and untie his sleeping hole.
"Where is this...... Plum Blossom Needle ...... Don't kill me. As soon as Master Mu woke up, he kept talking nervously.
"Shhh
"You're pretty good at slapping you. Get me both something to eat and drink. Yu Zhong said with a smile.
"I have some bread for this big night, so you can do it first. Bai Li Yu took out a few flatbreads from his baggage and poured two cups of hot tea for the two.
Master Mu took the hot tea, drank it all, grabbed the flatbread, and stuffed it into his stomach. Then he wiped his mouth and burped in satisfaction.
"It doesn't seem crazy, you listen, you can answer whatever we ask you, or else you will be good-looking. Baili said sharply.
"I'm in your hands now, and the acupoint was sealed by this young man, I can't run away even if I want to. Master Mu looked at Yu Zhong and said.
"You can recognize this plum blossom needle at a glance, does it have any origin?" Yu Zhong took out the hidden weapon he picked up and asked.
"Can you pour me another cup of tea?" said Master Mu.
"The lazy donkey grinds ......," Baili scolded and poured him another cup of hot tea.
He took two sips of hot tea, and said slowly: "This plum blossom needle is the unique secret weapon of the Demon Sect Protector Xuanyuanzi. ”
"Xuanyuanzi!" Yu Zhong and Bai Lishu were both taken aback when they heard this name.
Since Xuanyuanzi disappeared in Xiangzhou, there has been no trace of him for a long time. Unexpectedly, they appeared in the southern border, and it seemed that they had been following behind the dart team, but they didn't even notice it at all.
It's just puzzling that since he hid his whereabouts well, why did he kill someone this time.
