Chapter 358: Parting Ways

After six days of exposure, the old man Mu has lost most of his strength, basically there is no threat, Gu Shenwei and the lotus girl's prevention focus shifted to the wild horse, the journey is about to end, and the wild horse will rob people at any time.

At this time, there was only one day left before his power was completely consumed, and Old Man Mu fled, and he fled silently.

It wasn't until the next morning, when a few people were ready to go on the road, that they found that the layers of cowhide ropes were still there, like silkworm cocoons, but the rope shell was empty, and no one knew when the old man Mu would escape.

In the past ten days, everyone has been working day and night, only resting for a little time every day, and their mental and physical strength have been relaxed, even Gu Shenwei and the lotus girl are almost reaching the limit of patience, and their alertness has dropped significantly, which has created conditions for Old Man Mu to escape.

But how he managed to break free is still a mystery.

Old man Mu suffered this humiliation, and sooner or later he would come back to take revenge, Shangguan Fei strongly hinted that the lotus girl made a mistake in her decision, and she should have listened to him and killed the old devil, Shangguan Hong was even more afraid, and was so anxious that he paced back and forth, muttering "What to do".

"Old Man Mu's work has not yet recovered, and it is still too late to find him now, but you can't be merciful anymore, make a mistake once, don't make a mistake a second time. Shangguan Fei said in a commanding tone.

"Yes, the Ninth Young Master is right, how long will it take for him to recover?"

The Lotus Girl had been looking for clues with the Dragon King, and she didn't say much, only answered the question, "About thirty days." ”

"Luckily, there's plenty of time. Shangguan Hong breathed a sigh of relief.

"It will take more than thirty days to fully recover, but the old man Mu only needs five or six successful powers, he can kill us all, I think a few days is enough, alas, one wrong step, one wrong step. Shangguan Fei was still complaining, and he didn't look at other people's faces, in fact, he was greatly exaggerated, Old Man Mu's martial arts were higher than those of the Dragon King and the Lotus Girl, but not much higher, he had just suffered a setback, and he would never dare to act rashly before his skills were restored.

Gu Shenwei had been carefully observing the rope shell, and suddenly got up and said, "Someone is helping Old Man Mu." ”

"You mean one of us will help him?" Shangguan Hong asked in surprise.

The brothers of the Shangguan family glanced at each other, among the four, the Dragon King and the Lotus Girl had no reason to let go of Old Man Mu, and the remaining suspects were only the two of them.

The two of them stretched out their hands to each other almost at the same time, "It's you!"

Then you quarreled back and forth, listing the reasons for the other party's rebellion, and finally Shangguan Fei stopped the senseless fight first and asked the Dragon King: "How do you know that someone is helping?"

Gu Shenwei picked up the rope shell, and carefully pulled out a piece of cowhide rope from the innermost layer, and then another section, obviously, these two ropes were originally one section, and they were cut by a sharp weapon, and the old man Mu got a little gap from this, and the golden cicada came out of its shell.

"Not me. Shangguan Fei preemptively denied it, "I have been sleeping last night and have never gotten up, it is Shangguan Hong, I saw him get up at night, and after coming back, he tossed for a long time, there must be a ghost." ”

Shangguan Hong's face was red, "Nonsense, it's not me, why should I let him go?"

"Didn't Old Man Mu say it, whoever lets him go, he will pass on the invincible martial arts in the world, you have the worst martial arts, naturally excited. ”

Shangguan Hong's face blushed even more, "If I release someone, why don't I run with him?"

"You have poor martial arts, and you are afraid of attracting the attention of others, and in two days you will find an excuse to leave and go to the agreed place to worship Old Man Mu as a teacher, it must be like this. ”

Although the two are equally timid, Shangguan Fei is smarter, and the more he talks about Shangguan Hong's betrayal, the more it looks like it.

Just when Shangguan Hong was speechless and could only say "It's not me" over and over again, the lotus girl who was looking around the neighborhood walked back, "He ran south." ”

The two brothers closed their mouths and looked at the south, as if they could see the figure of the old man Mu, Shangguan Fei's face was gloomy, Shangguan Hong thought about it, and suddenly understood, "It's Shangguan Ru!"

Yesterday afternoon, after Shangguan Ru broke up with everyone, he was heading south, and the other three had already thought of this, but they didn't say it.

Shangguan Hong grabbed the life-saving straw and analyzed excitedly, "It must be her, I remember that she was alone with Old Man Mu a few times, and she chatted very hotly, and she closed her mouth when she saw others coming, and it is estimated that it will be negotiated at that time." And then...... She cut the rope and found an excuse to run first yesterday evening, and the old man escaped in the middle of the night to meet at the agreed place. It's seamless, I didn't see that the tenth prince is also so insidious. ”

Shangguan Hong didn't forget Shangguan Fei and glanced at him, "Maybe there is still a spy left behind, so that he can frame it for others." ”

The two were about to quarrel again, and Gu Shenwei shouted in a low voice: "Shut up." ”

The dragon king's face was not good, and the brothers trembled in their hearts, and they didn't dare to squeak.

Gu Shenwei found it hard to believe that Shangguan Ru would do such a thing, but who in this world was worth believing?

He had hurt her, and these days, he had been deliberately ignoring and snubbing her, and when they broke up yesterday, her disheartened appearance was still deeply imprinted in his mind.

If Shangguan is not an ordinary weak woman, she may have no murderous intent, but she will not admit defeat easily.

Gu Shenwei didn't want to think about it anymore, and his eyes swept over the two Shangguan brothers, hoping to find a more reasonable betrayer.

Shangguan Fei and Shangguan Hong were like rabbits under the forced gaze of tigers and wolves, and they were so stunned that they didn't even defend themselves.

"Gotta find Old Man Mu. Gu Shenwei said that he knew that finding the betrayer was not the most important task at the moment.

Shangguan Hong hurriedly said: "It's dawn now, Old Man Mu can't run far, he must be hiding nearby." ”

"But why aren't the mustangs gone?"

Shangguan Fei pointed to the small black dot in the southeast, which was a wild horse, as if he didn't know that Old Man Mu had escaped, or he didn't care, and still stubbornly followed behind.

It is likely that Old Man Mu did not run far, but Gu Shenwei couldn't waste time here, he had to rush to the camp of Daxue Mountain as soon as possible.

The lotus girl understood the dragon king's eyes, "I'm going to find Old Man Mu, because I want to stay alive, let me solve this problem." ”

In this way, after Shangguan Ru, the second person separated from the team.

It would take about thirty days for Old Man Mu to fully recover his strength, but the best time to hunt him down was to start these few days, so the Lotus Girl agreed with the Dragon King for a month, and no matter what the outcome was, she would join the Dragon King.

Gu Shenwei took Shangguan Fei and Shangguan Hong to move forward.

The wild horse didn't care about the departure of Shangguan Ru and the lotus girl, and after discovering the rope shell on the ground, he didn't give up tracking.

Gu Shenwei really wanted to get rid of or get rid of this tail, but he didn't have time to set up complicated traps, and this whole day, he rushed non-stop while thinking of a way, and finally had a simple idea, thinking that he could try it that night.

This idea requires Shangguan Fei's cooperation.

After a sudden acceleration in the evening, after temporarily getting rid of the wild horses, the three of them stopped to rest for a while, and Gu Shenwei said his thoughts, "If there is no accident, there will be an ambush ahead." ”

"Why?" the Shangguan brothers asked almost immediately, thinking that there would be no mortal danger for a while.

"Mustang has been following behind, but never making a move, naturally waiting for the moment, and I guess he has already arranged an ambush at the end of the road. ”

"Quite possibly. Shangguan Fei thought about it and agreed with the Dragon King's analysis.

"So what do we do?

There is no second way, the guide has already been killed, and wandering in the wilderness will only delay more time, so Gu Shenwei vetoed Shangguan Hong's opinion, "No, we have to get rid of the wild horses, so as not to suffer from the enemy on our backs." ”

Shangguan Fei and Shangguan Hong glanced at each other again, this time their thoughts were the same, and one said, "The Dragon King's clever plan." Another said, "Wait for the good news." ”

Next, as soon as Gu Shenwei said his plan, Shangguan Fei shook his head, "No, no, I can't do this, I can't show my horse's feet, but it will ruin the big thing of the Dragon King, and this trick was used once a few days ago, but I can't fool the wild horse." ”

Gu Shenwei knew what could make Shangguan Fei willing to take risks, "Without your cooperation, I can only give up the plan to get rid of the wild horses, let's continue to hurry, encounter an ambush, flee separately, their target is probably only some of us, unrelated people will probably not be pursued." ”

Shangguan Fei gritted his teeth, "Okay, I'll do it." ”

In Shangguan Fei's opinion, he is more important than the Dragon King, the wild horse is doing things for the Dubu King, and the person who is tracking is likely to be him, not the Dragon King.

Shangguan Hong didn't need to participate, he was greatly relieved, and encouraged his half-brother, "It will definitely work, you two are twins, as long as you ......"

Shangguan Fei glanced at it viciously, and Shangguan Hong hurriedly shut up.

In the middle of the night, the three of them stopped again, lit the fire, rested on the spot, and looked from afar, two people were asleep, and the other was watching nearby.

Three miles away, the wild horse also dismounted to rest, he did not raise the fire, nor slept, but spread a small blanket on the ground, and sat on his knees, holding the hilt of his sword, alert to the noise around him.

In the darkness of the night, a knight approached slowly from the south, his horse's hooves trampling in the thawing earth, a sound not loud enough to make the wild horse rise and draw his sword.

What surprised him was that the person who came turned out to be Shangguan Ru, although his appearance was vague, he was once a killer under Shangguan Ru, and he was confident that he would never be mistaken.

The narrow knife in Mustang's hand drooped a few inches, but his vigilance did not diminish in the slightest.

Shangguan Ru stopped twenty paces away, then drove his horse forward a few steps again, making a series of gestures to the effect that he wanted to talk to the mustang.

Mustang nodded, and also took a few steps forward, and the two were only less than ten steps apart.

Mustang made a move, he is not an easy person to be fooled, especially not to be deceived by the pretending Shangguan Ru at such a moment.

He guessed that the other party was pretending to be Shangguan Fei, and the Dragon King was already lurking nearby, so he wanted to kill Shangguan Fei by surprise, and then get on the horse and evacuate, not giving the Dragon King a chance to make a move.

The result was unexpected, and the fake Shangguan Ru was able to block his first knife.

Not only that, but he also cut off the weapon in his hand.

The killer would never engage in a fight, and the mustang, though taken aback, stepped back, holding a half-slit knife, and jumped on his horse.

The truly deadly sword stabbed out at this moment.

Shangguan Fei, who was dressed in women's clothes, was pale and his heart was pounding.

A few years ago, after Shangguan Ru and others stole out the "Book of No Dao", Mrs. Meng naturally did not forget her son and copied a copy to him.

Even so, he had to get more assurances and borrow the Wufeng Sword from the Dragon King.

What a good knife, he thought, and watched as one of the mustang's arms left his body more than ten paces away, blood gushing out.
