Xining Prefecture, located at the junction of the northwest and the Central Plains, is the only way to pass through the "Silk Road" and "Tang Fan Ancient Road" in the history of China, has always been the throat of the Western Regions and the Central Plains, the place where soldiers must fight, since the establishment of the state capital in the Song Dynasty, after the development of the Yuan and Ming dynasties, it has now become a place of multi-ethnic integration integrating "soldiers, people, culture and religion", in addition to a large number of Han traders stationed in the Han army, there are nearly 30 minority ethnic groups have bred here. A large number of Central Plains cultures and religions coexist here with the cultures and religions of minority ethnic groups. After the Ming Dynasty was settled, in the sixth year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang changed his name to "Xining Wei", but because the war between the two dynasties had just ended, it was still called "Xining Prefecture" in the minds of the older generation.

The night here is quite prosperous, not inferior to the king of Yingtian, the root of the reason, is because the merchants here gather, the flow of people is huge, like a scene of red lights, wine shops, tea houses, Qinglou Chu Pavilion are all available, people come and go endlessly, there are drunk wine buyers, there are also leaning on the green and red merry people, all of them are full of wine and food, and the satisfied appearance follows the flow of people on the street, slowly appreciate the scenery of this night market.

At this time, in a nameless dark alley, a man was running desperately with a frightened face, and from time to time he looked back and forth, but one stumbled and fell to the ground, and something seemed to catch up with him behind him. The man hurriedly got up, turned his head and shouted in horror, "What is this...... This is ...... I won't talk nonsense......"

The alley was not only dark, but also full of all kinds of shabby and discarded things, and the man sat in it, looked at the wound on his hand, and then raised his head and said in a supplicating tone, "Really, this is the ...... Maybe it's a good thing...... I won't talk nonsense......"

A dark cloud in the sky covered the moonlight, the man seemed to have discussed with the visitor to no avail, a murderous aura appeared in his eyes, and he immediately mustered up the courage to shout: "You forced me!" After speaking, his body moved, and it was a person from the Mu family in Dongxia Town, who turned into a beast, and burst out with a brute force and rushed over, and in the dark night, in the alley, a smell of blood came......

At this time, Chu Xunyu and the three of them were still living in the "Chaoyang Pavilion" room in Dongxia Town, Mu Yuan sat on the edge of the bed with an unhappy stomach and shouted: "What kind of cow is that surnamed Mu, he actually coaxed us out, I haven't asked yet, I obviously heard him say that there is a disaster at home, and if you want to say it, maybe we can still help, but this guy is good, he coaxed us out without saying a word, wait, I want to see if they will come to us when the disaster comes!"

Chu Xunyu poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip by the way, and comforted Mu Yuan and said: "Bajie, I think we are dogs and rats in this matter- Nosy, redundant, I look at his face today, it seems to be confident, it is estimated that the Mu family has dealt with such a catastrophe for a day or two, but there is a splash in the middle of the way, you said the ins and outs of what you heard that day, it is obvious that their little six Mu Lian has the intention of cutting through the mess quickly, and has solved the splash skin that has repeatedly come to the door to make trouble, so as to concentrate on other things, so I think it makes sense that people don't want to see us. ”

"It's nice to know about that splashy thing!" Mu Yuan pouted, "Come on, leave when you say it, the murderer will be punished, let's leave, it's really called a Mali, but then again, what is the murderer's name Mu Lian, is he really dead? ”

"It doesn't really matter if it's true or not. Chu Xunyu thought for a while, "The thoughts of the whole family of the Mu family are not on this, what we are most afraid of is that our human cultivators will come to the door, and they will be able to be neat." ”

The three of them were talking, and suddenly someone knocked on the door, Mu Yuan happened to be not in a good mood, so he asked in a vicious tone: "Who, snatching the filial piety hat in the middle of the night." ”

"It's me, guest officer!" It turned out to be the second child of Chaoyang Pavilion.

Chu Xunyu opened the door, looked at Xiao Er and asked, "Man, are you looking for us?"

"Oh, it's such a guest officer. Xiao Er took out a letter and handed it over, "Our host just sent someone to bring a letter over, saying that it was for you." ”

Chu Xunyu couldn't help but feel a little strange in his heart when he took it, so he thanked Xiao Er and sent him away, and then after sitting down, he opened the envelope and looked at it carefully, he couldn't help but be surprised, Mu Yuan saw that his face was different, and asked strangely at the moment: "What did you say in the letter?" That Boss Mu is really strange, anyway, there is no one on the street, there is something that is not clear, why do you want to write a letter, is it because you can't put it down?"

"This letter was not written by Boss Mu. Chu Xunyu raised his head strangely and replied, "It was his fourth lady, that is, the Wenqin we met." ”

"Huh?" Not only Mu Yuan, but even the old Cheng was very surprised, and stretched out his head to look, "What's the matter?"

Chu Xunyu put the letter on the table and said suspiciously: "This letter said that the Mu family Shuzu is almost finished, and he will rush back to Xining Prefecture to take care of business in the past two days, and at the same time mentioned that their Mu family affairs are a little troublesome this time, and it is estimated that they can't deal with it, so they wrote to us behind the master's back, hoping that we can secretly follow and protect their Mu family. ”

"Oh?" Mu Yuan and Wangchen glanced at each other, they were all surprised expressions, picked up the letter to read it carefully, and were surprised at the moment, what was written on the letter was indeed as Chu Xunyu said, Wenqin was written by the old man behind his back, and the font was beautiful, indicating that this year's Mu family was not trivial, it was already very dangerous, and the Mu family was not prosperous in recent years, and they did not dare to ask for help from the cultivator, so they have been holding on, and they didn't dare to hope for help now, but today I saw the legendary cultivator, who is not as vicious as described at home, so I took the liberty of writing a letter, hoping that you can help to protect the Mu family, and also protect the Mu boss himself, so that he will be grateful to Dade, dare not forget, and ask for money, if you want to give things, you are willing to repay them if you want to be a cow or a horse. At the same time, they also clarified the time, itinerary and place of residence of their Mu family to return to Xining Prefecture.

"Hey, that's fun. Mu Yuan looked at the letter strangely, and then asked the two of them, "You said that you want Boss Mu to know about this matter, will there be a quarrel in the family in the future?"

"He knows that what to do in the future is a trivial matter, now do we decide to help or not?" Chu Xunyu looked at the two of them.

"Don't help!" Mu Yuan replied categorically, "Isn't he angry today, how powerful, to keep us out, his wife can't plead when he comes, I want to see how powerful he is." ”

"Help. Forget Chen finally spoke at this time, and said slowly, "Mu Yuan, don't be angry, this matter is not for anger, the Mu family has always been neither human nor demon, and it is also small and powerful among mortals, and generally two things are insignificant, but looking at their expressions, you can know that this matter is not trivial, there are signs of blood and light disaster, but it should have nothing to do with the cultivators, otherwise they would have exchanged the demon pill for their lives, most of them I guess it is still related to the word 'demon', so I think it is necessary for us to take action, saving people's lives is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter." ”

"The predecessors have been insightful, and this statement is reasonable. Chu Xunyu nodded and agreed, "Bajie, don't be angry, tomorrow we will quietly follow them back to Xining Prefecture, and see how things develop before making a decision." ”
