Found a loyal dog

Chapter 23

Mu Xiong stared at the hands they shook, paused and followed.

After leaving the room, Murong's speed slowed down instead, she tried not to look around, making the servants think they were walking.

Mu Xiong followed her, with an arm's length between the two of them, Murong seemed to have something on his mind, kept his head down, but the speed of walking never slowed down.

Mu Xiong's eyes shifted from his hands to Murong's back, his head was dizzy, and he felt that all this was a little unreal... She deeply remembered Murong's eyes that were so sad that he was about to cry after hearing her words, And a resolute figure when leaving.

She thought that Murong would treat her like a stranger from now on, but she didn't expect a turnaround so soon.

For a moment, Mu Xiong couldn't tell whether he was more happy or more embarrassed.

Walking through the front door was too ostentatious, Murong hugged Mu Shao with one hand and pulled Mu Xiong with the other, and walked slowly to the back door of Luo Mansion.

There were also guards at the back door, and when they saw that they were about to leave, they stopped them: "The two are friends of Master Luo, right? The wedding banquet is about to begin, please don't run around."

The one who stopped them was a woman with an honest face, but her words were very strong, with an air of undeniable refusal.Murong looked at her, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the clothes on the woman's waist that bulged out because of something stuffed, and his heart skipped a beat.

She forced herself to be calm and said: "We just want to go out for a walk, not go far, and come back soon."

The expression of the woman at the door did not change at all, she made a "please" gesture towards the door, and still said the same set of words: "The wedding banquet is about to begin, please come back, both of you."

Murong turned his head and glanced, a few female servants in the distance seemed to be cleaning, but they were slowly approaching them without showing any trace.This step, if you step back, you may never be able to go back alive.

"Okay then, let's go back." Murong smiled at the gatekeeper woman, who also smiled at her, but the smile didn't reach her eyes.

Didn't you mean to leave Luofu?Mu Xiong was puzzled but didn't show it on his face, just about to follow the trend, he saw Murong quickly gave him a look, and Murong scratched his palm twice.

Mu Xiong understood Murong's meaning, drew his sword and slashed at the guard. The guard's reaction was extremely quick, and he nimbly drew out a long knife to block the blow.

Mu Xiong didn't like to fight, he made a feint, and hugged Murong's waist with the other hand, he used lightness kung fu to turn over the high wall, lightly tapped his toes on the branches, and opened the distance with a few jumps.

There was the sound of a weapon being unsheathed behind him, and Murong subconsciously hugged Mu Shao tightly and approached Mu Xiong's arms.

During the jump, Mu Xiong suddenly shouted: "Low your head!"

Murong hurriedly lowered her head, something flew over her head, and the airflow brought by the high-speed rotation cut off a small section of her hair.

Out of danger, Murong temporarily heaved a sigh of relief, looked back, and then opened his eyes wide.

Isn't the woman in a black night gown who followed closely behind them exactly Jiang Xin!

Jiang Xin kept a low profile when he was on the road before, and Murong had never seen him make a move, but only today when he saw him, he realized that the opponent had great kung fu, and he was able to face Mu Xiong's light kung fu opponent who was hard to find like a ghost, and he was able to easily and freely.

Murong's heart was beating wildly, cold sweat dripped down his forehead, all kinds of speculations flashed through his mind for a while, the enemy is in the dark and we are in the light, the most hidden person might be the real mastermind behind the scenes!

Murong stared at Jiang Xin intently, Jiang Xin felt her gaze, tilted his head to show her a meaningful smile, and quickly pulled out a short knife from his boot.

The short knife was about five inches long, and the sharp blade reflected a cold light under the scorching sun.When Murong saw the knife, his whole body trembled uncontrollably, and almost slipped from Mu Xiong's hand.

"Don't be afraid, there is me." Mu Xiong hugged Murong even tighter.

Jiang Xin behind him has already assumed an attacking posture. Murong calmed down at the moment of life and death, and watched Jiang Xin flip his wrist in the air and swung a strange circle in the air. All the flying needles were bounced back, deeply inserted into the trunk of the roadside.

Murong turned around with a complicated expression, and hugged Mu Shao tightly.Mu Xiong turned his head to look at Jiang Xin.

Now that they were exposed, all the servants of Luo Mansion simply took off their coarse clothes, and chased after Mu Xiong.Although Mu Xiong's skills are better than theirs, but he can't stand the long-term physical exertion. If this continues, they will be wiped out sooner or later.

Mu Xiong pursed his lips, and ran all the way out of Jusuo Town and into the forest.She took a breath and put Murong down, and said quickly: "You and Shao'er go first, the vegetation here is messy, they won't be able to find you for a while, remember to hire someone to protect you immediately after you leave the forest and come to the town! "

After she finished speaking, she turned to leave.

Murong grabbed her arm with an anxious expression: "Where are you going? Let's go together."

Mu Xiong actually planned to go back and block the city gate, so as to buy time for Murong, but these words would only make Murong worry, she didn't answer, and firmly pushed away Murong's hand holding her arm.

"You can't go anywhere today!"

Murong raised his head in surprise, Zhang Lin stood behind Mu Xiong at some point, against the light, still with that expressionless face, but Murong looked cold.

Almost at the same time, Mu Xiong hugged her waist and swept back quickly, and Jiang Xin emerged from the side to block Zhang Lin's blow head-on.

"Hmph." Zhang Lin made a strong pick, but Jiang Xin dodged backwards, followed by a few backflips, and was one foot away from Zhang Lin in an instant.

Zhang Lin was not in a hurry to catch up, she raised a mocking arc on the corner of her mouth, stood there and snapped her fingers, the men in black who were ambushing in the grass jumped out one after another, surrounded Murong and others, and pointed their swords at the center of the circle .

"Run? Why don't you run away? Aren't you supernatural and unrivaled in martial arts?" Zhang Lin stared at Jiang Xin in the circle, his face distorted bit by bit as if thinking of something, and a strange light burst out in his eyes, " It’s ridiculous that a man dares to control a woman, or even overpower a woman! I’ve been deceived by you for so many years! Jiang Xin, today I will accept you, a rebellious sinner, for the heavens!”

Jiang Xin looked at her coldly, and the disdain in his eyes clearly expressed his thoughts at this moment.

Zhang Lin was extremely angry, but as a woman, she lost to a man in both martial arts and business intelligence. This incident made her feel extremely ashamed and embarrassed.Ever since she accidentally discovered Jiang Xin's secret, the resentment in her heart doubled every day she stayed in "Seeing No Return".

Zhang Lin gave an order to the man in black with a wave of his hand, and said bitterly, "Jiang Xin, today is your death day!"

"Not necessarily."

Zhang Lin turned around: "Who?!"

A tall woman wearing a veil came out from the shadows, followed by Li Zi who was covered in blood.Someone slashed Li Zi's left shoulder, and her clothes were soaked in blood. However, she seemed to feel no pain, and looked at Zhang Lin sadly, with undigested shock still on her face.

The shock in Murong's heart was not less than Li Zi's. Apart from the fact that the person she always thought was a woman turned out to be a man, judging from the information revealed in Zhang Lin's words, Jiang Xin's status in "Seeing No Return" is higher than that of Zhang Lin. Lin wants to be tall, if that is the case, then Jiang Xin may not know that all the games are played for her.

Since it is possible to know, why come here alone to accompany Zhang Lin in this scene?Aren't you afraid that if something goes wrong and you lose your life?

Murong looked at Mu Xiong, feeling a little sympathetic to the three Mu Xiong present.In other people's family fighting, they were plotted and involved for no reason.

Mu Xiong noticed her gaze and thought she was afraid, so he patted Murong's shoulder reassuringly and kept Murong behind him.

Murong smiled and signaled that she was fine. In fact, she was not scared when she first found out that she had been tricked. Zhang Lin's purpose was to kill Jiang Xin, not them. What's more, there was a well-prepared general here. exist.

Coming prepared... Murong looked at Zhong Lijin in the distance, feeling complicated and difficult to discern.

After Zhang Lin saw who it was, he let out a sneer from his nose: "It seems that the general knew he was a man long ago, and he came all the way to rescue him, maybe it was because of some unsightly things between you two?" Is it a human transaction?"

Jiang Xin's expression changed.

Zhong Lijin didn't talk nonsense with her, and directly drew out his sword and stabbed Zhang Lin. The well-trained soldiers behind him who had been waiting for a long time rushed out and formed a formation. The two sides fought hard, and the scene was extremely chaotic.

Murong hugged Mu Shao carefully avoiding the sword and crossing the crowd, while Mu Xiong cleared the way ahead to cover Murong.

A black shadow flashed above his head, Murong looked at the road with tense nerves, the weight in his hand suddenly became lighter, and Mu Shao who was sitting in her arms disappeared.

Murong was so anxious that he was going crazy: "Shao'er!"

"Mother! Mother!" Mu Shao's voice was full of tears, and he kicked his legs and struggled desperately.
