Chapter 59: Mutation

As the night deepened, the noisy streets of Zhenjiang County gradually became empty and lonely.

The pedestrians gradually dispersed, the lights of thousands of homes gradually went out, and the shops and taverns began to close one after another, and Zhenjiang County, which had been lively for a day, finally quieted down completely.

The moonlight is shining brightly, pouring on the empty streets and alleys, peaceful and beautiful.

At this moment, on the lonely street, there was a sudden night breeze, followed by two phantoms, one white and one red, rushing by.

After passing through several streets and alleys, after a short time, two figures stopped abruptly not far from the Moon Reflecting Inn.

Mu Zishang turned around and looked at Xiao Feng with a smile, "Xiao Feng, you don't think about it anymore? You really don't plan to go with me, aren't you afraid that I'm going to come nonsense?"

"No," Xiao Feng smiled lightly, "I think you should be a little measured." Besides, I have more things to do, so I don't have time to waste time here. ”

Mu Zishang pursed her lips with some dissatisfaction, "Okay, okay, I know you're a busy man." ”

Xiao Feng nodded calmly, "But remember, tonight is to check, not to dismount the horse, let alone let you solve the Gu, don't do anything, and don't make your own decisions, otherwise I will be repaid." ”

Mu Zishang grinned, "Since you don't worry, let's go in and have a look." Anyway, looking at your leisurely appearance, things shouldn't be in a hurry. ”

Xiao Feng shook his head, didn't say anything more, and turned away.

Seeing this, Mu Zishang pursed her lips boringly, and turned around and walked in the direction of the Moon Inn.

Crossing most of Zhenjiang County, passing through the bustling town business district, and turning a few streets and alleys, you can see that the houses are gradually dilapidated, and occasionally the sound of chickens and dogs barking sounds, showing the loneliness of the night.

This is the house of the people of Zhenjiang, which depicts the barren and dilapidated, hardships and hardships that are rare to see in countless prosperous alleys.

After nearly half an hour along the path, you can see the manor seats, which are either exquisite, dilapidated and depressed, or simple and simple...... The different specifications and layouts of the manor also reflect the differences in the identity of the owner's family.

In a modest manor house, there are house seats, and the lights are bright at this time.

In one of the rooms, dozens of children ranging in the age of seven to 10 huddled in the corner, sobbing lowly.

In another house next door, four weak-crowned young men in light yellow clothes were eating and drinking, and they were idle and unmatched, but they were at ease.

"Hey, it's not easy to encounter this kind of grand event, who knew that the four of us brothers were so miserable, and we could only guard a group of broken children here. A pock-faced young man raised his head and poured a large bowl of wine, a little self-deprecating.

"Who said it wasn't, it's only our bad luck to blame, and the young master picked who was not good, so he pointed at the four of us with a finger. The young man opposite the pockmarked youth sighed.

"That's it, you don't have to watch or talk about the excitement, and you have to stay in this place. Another good-looking young man shook his head and sighed.

"Okay, you can be content, complaining and discouraged. In the end, the young man did not have any displeasure, and said casually, "This group of children in the house is much more unlucky than us, and I don't know how many will live in a few days." He shook his head with some emotion, and continued to add, "Besides, don't forget, the young master didn't lead us here to let us watch the excitement, I heard that the people of the Mu Xue faction are not very easy to mess with, anyway, the reputation in the rivers and lakes in the past few days is not small, if you don't know that the young master will suffer on the day of the apprenticeship ceremony, the few who are left behind will definitely be cleaned up." Although the four of us brothers are boring here, it won't come from the sky, right?"

"Also, I feel a lot better thinking about it. The young man nodded and agreed.

"What Senior Brother Zhou said is reasonable. The pock-faced young man also nodded.

"Senior Brother Zhou is an open-minded person, and Senior Brother admires and admires him. The pock-faced young man arched his hand to the young man opposite.

"Senior Brother Wang is polite, and the younger brother can afford it. At last the young man quickly stood up and bowed back.

The young man opposite the pock-faced young man smiled with satisfaction, and was about to say a few more polite words, when a gust of wind blew into the house, blowing the candle flame swaying and jumping, and a white shadow seemed to flicker slightly outside the window.

"Who?" Wang Xuan's heart trembled violently, and he rebuked sharply.

There was silence in the courtyard, and there was no response.

The four of them shivered slightly, feeling a little chill down their backs.

Wang Wei subconsciously touched the back of his neck, and then lowered his voice and said, "Have the three junior brothers seen anything unclean?"

Zhou Chong leaned closer to the three of them, "It should be ..... Probably not, I didn't see it anyway. ”

The other two also nodded hurriedly.

Wang Wei tightened his coat, looked around carefully, and swallowed, "Really......?" You really didn't see the White Shadow or anything like that. ”

Li Tao also swallowed, and his voice trembled a little: "Bai Ying? just now..... Isn't that a hallucination of my junior brother?"

Xiang Lin also looked around, "Then I seem to have seen it, it can't be that I have encountered something unclean, right?"

The door was slammed open by the wind, and a white shadow flashed outside the door.

The four blinked, then looked at each other.

Wang Wei stepped forward and shouted, "What kind of person, sneaky, come out!"

However, the next moment, he heard three 'plop' sounds behind him.

His heart couldn't help but clench, and he had an extremely bad premonition.

Sure enough, when he turned around again, he saw that the three junior disciples had somehow collapsed to the ground and passed out.

Wang Wei only felt that his scalp was numb, and goosebumps rose all over his body.

"Senior Brother Zhou?" he hesitated, and he shouted cautiously.

No one responded.

"Senior Brother Li?"

There was still silence in the room.

"Xiang ...... To the junior brother?"

A white shadow flickered in the room, and then vanished.

Wang Xuan's heart was beating wildly, and he jumped to the side of the three junior disciples in a panic, and shouted a little fiercely: "Who is pretending to be a ghost? Come out for me! Otherwise, Wang will ......."

It's just that before he finished speaking, he felt a slight chill on his neck.

Immediately, I heard a young man's voice behind him, "Oh, it's coming out below, what should Your Excellency do?"

Wang Wei chuckled in his heart, and then his voice trembled: "May I ask which master it is, when did I provoke Your Excellency?"

However, in the next moment, Wang Oath only felt a slight tingling pain in the back of his neck, and then a warm liquid flowed down his neck into the placket. At the same time, he heard a voice behind him and continued: "The sword below is very unstable, so it is best not to move. ”

Wang Xuan hurriedly stopped his movements, and said in a slightly anxious tone: "Understood, understood." Your Excellency, if you have something to say, say it well. ”

The sword at his neck loosened slightly, and then the voice behind him said again: "Tell Su Cheng that he has to pay the price for catching someone who shouldn't be arrested." ”

Wang Xuan's heart jumped, and he hurriedly nodded again and again.

"Hmm. The person behind him seemed to be very satisfied with the attitude of the king's oath, "In addition, let him be honest these days, and don't do anything out of the ordinary, do you understand?"

"Understood, understood. The king nodded again.

"Well, in that case, you can get some sleep. The person behind him said calmly.

When Wang Wei heard this, he was about to nod, but suddenly reacted suddenly, and hurriedly turned around to defend himself. It's just that the next moment, he felt a numbness in his neck, his eyes were dark, and now he was unconscious.

Xiao Feng wiped the sword body on Wang Oath, his wrist flicked, and the long sword was put into the sheath.

Immediately, Xiao Feng looked at the four people who had passed out in front of him, and shook his head helplessly. With such a character, it is no wonder that he was sent to watch the door.

Suddenly, Xiao Feng's brows furrowed, and his figure disappeared in a flash.

When I saw Xiao Feng's figure again, I saw that he had come to the courtyard and looked around vigilantly.

The next moment, the courtyard was suddenly full of dust, rolling up dead leaves.

Xiao Feng frowned, raised his head and looked around. It seems that the feeling of being watched when I came was not my own delusion, but it was difficult for even me to detect the traces, when did such a person appear on the rivers and lakes?
