Tie Linglong felt that her vigilance was enough, but as soon as she jumped into the Kunshe Society, she was held down by one hand, drew her knife and pointed out, and was stopped before the two moves in a row could be formed, and then she recognized the other party as Shangguan Ru.

"Huh......"

Shangguan Ru pointed to her lips, signaling her not to speak, and then walked around into the shadows near the gate, Tie Linglong followed closely and didn't ask anything.

On the other side of the courtyard, Nie Zeng jumped in and went straight to the place where Tie Linglong had landed, followed by a group of swordsmen, looked around for a while, and began to search aggressively.

Shangguan Ru pulled up his mask and pointed to the door.

Tie Linglong took advantage of the chaos in the courtyard and pushed the door out, followed by Shangguan Ru with a knife.

There was a group of swordsmen standing on the opposite side of the street, who were originally fighting, but at this time they all paused, and found that the Kunshe walked out of the two people, so they ran over and rushed into the courtyard, as if there was some treasure hidden in it, and there was no chance to share it if they were one step behind.

A few people recognized Tie Linglong, but no one noticed that the masked person next to her was the owner of the Kun Society, and there were too many masked people this night, and no one would particularly care.

The two of them left the Kunshe so casually, and by the time Nie Zeng asked about the situation, the two of them had disappeared, the sky was dark, and the few warriors guarding the roof outside could hardly see the situation at the gate.

Shangguan Ru "escaped" from his residence, walked generously north, and soon reached the river, where he encountered some swordsmen on the way, without any suspicion.

"Thank you. Shangguan Ru said with crooked eyebrows, without pulling down the mask, "I'm still thinking about how to get out, you did me a favor." ”

"You saved me once, that's nothing. Tie Linglong used to be jealous of Shangguan Ru, but at this time, she didn't feel it at all, she only thought of her benefits.

A few years ago, Tie Linglong and Chu Nanping made an appointment to go to Jinpeng Fort to bring out the Ten Princes, but they were trapped in it, and they needed the rescue of the Ten Princes, Shangguan Ru certainly remembered this incident, "Is Xiao Chu okay?"

Shangguan Ru said as he went down the river, his eyes swept over the black river, Tie Linglong did not leave an inch, and whispered: "His eyes are broken, and he may never get better, but he is still practicing swords, Doctor Sun said that his skills will probably be restored after a while." ”

Shangguan Ru turned around and looked at Tie Linglong sympathetically, "Xiao Chu still wants to ** ruthless swordsmanship?"

Tie Linglong nodded.

The two walked forward silently, getting farther and farther away from Kunshe, and Tie Linglong still didn't ask anything, as if everything had been arranged in advance.

Shangguan Ru found something, stopped, turned around and said, "I'm really sorry, you have to go, I can't take you with me." ”

Tie Linglong shook her head firmly, "No, I have to ask Old Man Mu why he poisoned Xiao Chu." ”

"That's Old Man Mu. Shangguan Ru felt that this was enough to explain everything.

"I want to hear him with my own ears. ”

The little girl was very stubborn, and Shangguan Ru thought for a while, "Then you have to be obedient." ”

"Is it okay to be as obedient as I am now?"

Shangguan Ru smiled, Tie Linglong was indeed very obedient along the way, but he "disobeyed" on the most important issue, "Okay, just like now." ”

There was a small boat parked on the river, and it was almost impossible to spot its existence unless you looked at it.

The two of them got on the boat, Shangguan Ru took off his mask, Tie Linglong pulled out his knife and cut the cable, and the boat immediately went down the river, no need to row, but the bumps and ups were terrible, if it wasn't good at light work, it was really difficult to sit on it steadily.

Tie Linglong was obediently silent, Shangguan Ru felt that he should give a little explanation, "That person named He Donggua was caught by Old Man Mu after hiding for less than an hour, in order to save his life, he agreed to pass a message to me on behalf of Old Man Mu, and I hid him." ”

"Oh. Tie Linglong suddenly felt that it was no wonder that He Donggua would ask Kunshe for help, it turned out that it was arranged by Old Man Mu.

"Old man Mu wanted to see me, and he said that there were too many swordsmen and it was too annoying, so I asked me to keep his pursuers in the city as much as possible, and then go to see him alone. ”

"I'm not going to delay my sister's business, am I?"

"No, you can't listen to him for everything. ”

"That's right, why does Old Man Mu want to see Sister Ru, let's find some more people, and we can solve him tonight." ”

Shangguan Ru shook his head and rejected this suggestion, Old Man Mu is a very cunning person, and it has little impact with an iron Linglong, and it is impossible to hide from the world if he wants to set a trap.

Shangguan Ru didn't say the reason why Old Man Mu went to great lengths to see her, Tie Linglong didn't ask anymore, she only thought about how to question Old Man Mu later, in her mind, things were so simple.

The current was very fast, and it didn't take long for the boat to sail out of Biyu City, and the people on both sides of the strait gradually became scarce, Shangguan Ru looked at the north shore, "It's almost there, get ready to go ashore." ”

There was a faint flame in the distance, like a homeless person lit at night to warm up, and when they were a dozen steps away from the fire, the two jumped to the shore at the same time, and the unmanned boat went alone.

There was no one by the fire, there was a half-burned firewood lying on the side, the charred end pointed to the northwest, the two of them went in the direction, and after walking half a mile, Tie Linglong turned around and found that the fire had suddenly been extinguished.

It wasn't long before another fire lit up ahead, and there was still firewood left to guide the way.

"Old man Mu likes to play tricks. Shangguan Ru said casually, without any vigilance, and seemed to be very sure that Old Man Mu was not a danger.

"Hmm. Tie Linglong was not so relieved, her eyes swept around the dark wilderness, and she always felt that there were people hiding nearby, but she couldn't find obvious traces.

"How is the Dragon King preparing?" Shangguan Ru asked.

Tie Linglong didn't know what to say, Shangguan Ru was the daughter of King Dubu after all, and the Dragon King didn't trust her as much as before, so he should be stricter.

"Hey, are you afraid that I will tell you?" Shangguan Ru guessed what Tie Linglong was thinking and said with a smile.

Tie Linglong believed in Shangguan Ru, not to mention that she didn't feel that what she knew was confidential, so she said: "Sister Ru won't do such a thing." Dragon King...... It's been a whole day, and he only came out this evening, and then he went to the martial arts competition, and he must be confident. ”

"He's always confident. Shangguan said faintly.

"Don't you believe that the Dragon King can defeat the Dubu King?" Tie Linglong asked in surprise, suddenly realizing that his question was quite cruel, no matter what, the Dubu King was Shangguan Ru's biological father.

"It doesn't matter if you win or lose, but I'm not going to let any of them die in a joust. ”

Tie Linglong slowed down and moved away from Shangguan Ru, and for the first time she clearly felt that Sister Ru and the Dragon King were not of the same mind.

Shangguan Ru pointed ahead, "It turns out that Old Man Mu is hiding here." ”

The two of them passed the instructions of the three fires and looked into a wooded field ahead.

"Rouge. Tie Linglong whispered, catching up and walking side by side with Shangguan Ru.

There were a lot of small clearings in the Rouge Forest, one of which was lit by a fire, and the two of them walked through the forest to find that this was the end, and there were no more counters.

Old Man Mu did not show up.

Tie Linglong glanced around, the sky should be about to dawn, but at this time it was the darkest time, the not dense trees swayed their branches and leaves in the wind, making a malicious rustling sound, and the strange cry of the old man seemed to be hidden in it.

"Old man Mu!" Tie Linglong shouted, the fire beside her suddenly went out, she didn't care, just held the hilt of the knife tightly with her right hand, "Get out, do you have the courage to play tricks, don't you have the courage to see us?"

Old man Mu spoke, still flickering and unpredictable, "Good girl, I said I wanted to see you alone, but I didn't allow you to bring one more." ”

"I don't need your permission. Shangguan Ru said, his expression was relaxed, and he didn't care where the other party was hiding at all, "You want to see me, I'm here, if you refuse to show up, I have to leave." ”

"Haha, good girls are always so tough, okay-"

Before he finished speaking, Tie Linglong felt a gust of wind approaching, and the wind was very strange, as if it had a thin solid shape, which could grind the place where it passed into the ground.

She had just decided to draw her sword, and Shangguan Ru had already shot before her.

Quietly, the strange wind stopped, and on the cross branch of a tree more than a dozen steps away, a short figure stood, "Hehe, centering finger, the good girl is still using the martial arts I taught you, it's really unexpected." ”

"Martial arts are dead, people are alive, and I will not abandon them because you taught me what I did. ”

"That's right. Old Man Mu said happily, "What about the Book of the Dead?

Shangguan Ru was silent, and Tie Linglong took a step forward, "Old man Mu, let me ask you, has Chu Nanping offended you?"

Old Man Mu laughed, "Little Green-eyed has come to find justice for your lover, you should thank me, if it weren't for me, you two would still be greasy and crooked, I don't know whether you love or hate." ”

"I don't need you to care, I'll ask you, why do you want to harm Chu Nanping?" Tie Linglong's voice became more and more stern.

"Harm, little green-eyed, you're mistaken, my original intention was to kill Chu Nanping, but I didn't succeed in making it like this, as for the reason, the most important thing is that I think others are good. ”

Tie Linglong was confused, "Because Xiao Chu is good, so you want to kill him?"

"That's right, people like him can always be loved by others, and killing him will make many people suffer, such as you, such as Xu Xiaoyi, and the Dragon King, by the way, as far as I know, many men and women in Biyu City like Chu Nanping as much as you, probably they will also be painful. Ha ha. ”

Tie Linglong was furious, she came into contact with Old Man Mu relatively late, and what she saw in her eyes was a sycophant who followed the Dragon King, although she had heard his story, it was still hard to believe that he would be so shameless, she knew that she was not the opponent of Old Man Mu, but she just wanted to go up and fight, even if she died, she didn't care.

Shangguan Ru pulled Tie Linglong back, his eyes were serious, Tie Linglong remembered his assurance, and reluctantly let go of the handle of the knife.

"Old man wood, don't you just want to see my wooden knife? Shangguan Ru challenged.

Shangguan Ru's wooden knife was actually able to restrain the dead man's swordsmanship, how could Old Man Mu not be interested? But he wouldn't risk a fight, "Hehe, a good girl has a good temper, but I don't want to hurt you, so let's make a deal." ”

If Shangguan didn't squeak, Old Man Mu took it as a default and continued: "Good girl told you how to practice swordsmanship, and the old man will tell you a few secrets, several, not one, for example, how do I know that the Dead Man's Book is hidden in Jinpeng Castle, it may not be your fault, and what strange tricks will the Dragon King and Dubu King use tonight, if you want to stop them from killing each other, my reminder is absolutely indispensable." Haha, how's that?"
