"...Cinnabar?"
Musu's voice was full of disbelief, and he himself was not sure whether the person in front of him was Zhu Sha.
Cinnabar's eyes are always clear, full of vigor and vitality, but the eyes of the man in black in front of him are lifeless, without even a gleam of light.But just for a moment when he met Musu's eyes, the man's eyes seemed to be trembling, and they were about to shatter.At this moment, Mu Su had already determined that this woman in black was none other than Zhu Sha, whose whereabouts were unknown after He Lou Chengyue died.
Zhu Sha looked at Ye Wenze who was gradually approaching, then took another look at Mu Rong, and finally fell on Mu Su. No matter how clear and bright those eyes were, they were deep and sad, as if they were about to shed tears in the next second.
Zhu Sha took a deep look at Musu, without saying a word, turned around suddenly, and jumped into the river.
There was only a plop in the darkness, and everyone turned pale with shock.Several of Ye Wenze's subordinates had already chased after him, and Mu Su also hurriedly chased to the river. Looking at the dark river, he suddenly felt his legs go weak, and Ye Wenze who was chasing up from behind suddenly supported him.
"Cinnabar..."
Mu Rong also approached in fear, and stretched out his hand to let the people around him retreat. While supporting Mu Su, he asked in surprise, "Brother? Do you know this person?"
Musu still couldn't recover, and nodded with a pale face. He was about to say something, but was stopped by Ye Wenze.
"Go back and talk."
Of the fourteen men in black that night, thirteen of them either took poison or were killed on the spot. Only Zhu Sha escaped, and none of Ye Wenze's men could find her.And because Mu Rong was wearing a golden silk soft armor, the cinnabar sword didn't hurt him at all.
They speculated that there might be an unknown secret passage in the river, from which Zhusha escaped successfully.
"Her kung fu...is it that good?" Musu and the three sat around the stone table, and Musu murmured to himself in disbelief as he recalled the movement of fighting Zhu Sha.
Mu Rong raised his face, and said a little depressed: "According to what you said, this woman... shouldn't appear in this place anyway?"
Mu Su looked at the pale-faced Murong, and asked, "Who are these people? They seem to be targeting you. Mu Rong, do you still have something to tell me?"
Mu Rong's face became a little embarrassed, and he subconsciously elbowed Ye Wenze beside him.
Ye Wenze took over the topic and said: "The group of people you saw tonight is a powerful force in the Jianghu. As far as Mu Rong and I understand, there is a [-]% possibility that they have dealt with the Great Xia court in private and were sent to The front line...the force that caused He Lou Chengyue's death."
Mu Su's eyes were locked suddenly, and he slapped the table instantly, his voice suddenly became louder, and he looked at Ye Wenze: "What did you say?"
Mu Rong also put away his usual playful expression, frowned and said: "Brother, calm down. These are all the information we got secretly. Although there is no complete evidence, it is absolutely true and credible. According to what you said He Lou Chengyue risked his life just to stop this group of people."
Musu's expression was inconceivable apart from shock, he clenched his fingers on the table, and said in a trembling voice, "What kind of power are they?"
Ye Wenze and Mu Rong looked at each other, and the former said indifferently: "It's Tianyin Pavilion. The beauty, fragrance, sound and appearance are the best in the world."
"Tianyin Pavilion?" Musu's fingers were clenched violently: "Isn't Tianyin Pavilion a refined force that has always been ignorant of world affairs and not advocating martial arts?"
But Mu Rong snorted coldly: "It's not like this a long time ago. People, how can it be possible to have no ambitions. I don't know how many things these dirty things have done behind the scenes..."
Ye Wenze's complexion was not good either.He said lightly: "It's a long story. It's just that among the exercises that Tianyin Pavilion is good at today, there are sounds and fragrances, that is, the rhythm of the voice and the poison attack. Xie Yan probably also took a fancy to the technique of influence and casualties at the time. This is also the reason why He Lou Chengyue must kill the elite of Tianyin Pavilion."
Cold sweat dripped from Musu's forehead drop by drop and fell onto the stone table.
"...Cinnabar..."
Mu Rong blinked and exchanged glances with Ye Wenze.At this point, the three of them knew why Zhu Sha appeared in Tianyin Pavilion's team to assassinate Mu Rong.
"Wen Ze." Mu Su called out.
Ye Wenze looked at Musu and hummed.
"If it's possible...please find Zhusha...even if you can't bring her back here, you must...persuade her to leave there!" Musu raised his head sharply, his lips trembling: "she entered alone. In this kind of organization, if you want to avenge Alu, you will hit a stone with an egg! If you are accidentally discovered...then..."
Mu Rong bit his lip and said, "This woman is really courageous... But, is she going to target Tianyin Pavilion or Xie Yan..."
Ye Wenze took a deep breath, reached out to support Musu, and said, "I know that. You don't have to worry too much, she might have her own plans."
Mu Su fell down on the seat, propped his head with his hands and said, "I don't know if He Lou Cheng Ye knew about this..."
"He must know. It's just that he can't get away to deal with it." Mu Rong tapped the table lightly with a fan in his hand, and said, "He is the owner of the Tianji Pavilion. The rivers and lakes are not involved in the court, even if he is imprisoned as the king of Langyue, It will not affect the operation of Tianji Pavilion at all. Although He Lou Chengye is the owner of Tianji Pavilion, he is not qualified to instruct Tianji Pavilion to participate in government affairs, and even if he dies in the war, Tianji Pavilion can completely ignore him. "
Mu Su recalled the gaze he felt in the crevice of Beiyuan Mountain, and instantly approved of Mu Rong's statement.
He Lou Chengye looks as if he is holding the sun and the moon in his hands, and his strength is strong, but in fact he is hindered everywhere, even isolated and helpless.
Ye Wenze said: "Anyway, I will continue to investigate this matter. Tianyin Pavilion's attack on Mu Rong was my mistake. Now the final battle between Lang Yue and Daxia is about to break out. Tianyin Pavilion..." he said Halfway through, he suddenly kept silent, frowned, rubbed the center of his brows again and said: "You guys go to rest early, I will deal with some things."
Ye Wenze said, stood up, and walked out of the courtyard.
Mu Rong and Mu Su sat in the yard, but Mu Su couldn't calm down, but Mu Rong patted him on the shoulder with a smile and said, "Brother, don't worry, that woman is so smart in your description, she definitely won't be as smart as you said. You are in danger. As for the rest, you have to believe that Ye Han will be able to find them soon."
Mu Su looked at him and said in a deep voice: "Murong, I know there are many things you don't want me to know. But you must promise me that safety is the most important thing. If you don't want to talk about those things, it's fine if you don't talk about them." .”
Mu Rong was taken aback for a moment, then his eyes flickered for a moment, and his face became gentle: "Understood brother. Don't worry, I am no longer the brat I used to be. I can handle these things well."
He paused, then smiled again: "And I told Ye Han a long time ago, pay more attention to the situation on Langyue's side. If there is anything wrong with He Lou Cheng Ye, I will tell you."
Mu Su was taken aback: "Murong..."
Mu Rong laughed, and pulled Mu Su over. Although his smile was a bit forced, he was still heartless: "After all, you are my own brother. Needless to say, I know what you are thinking! I have never relaxed until now, and I know it too.”
Musu sighed helplessly, then laughed again and said, "Yes. It's been a long time since I was able to believe in other people's life wholeheartedly."
"Brother." Mu Rong leaned on Mu Su and said, "If you don't consider anyone, what will we two brothers do in the future?"
Musu looked at him and said, "What do you mean?"
Murong's eyes flickered, and the corners of his mouth curled up: "...I don't know who to trust now, except you, who can be with me in the end....Brother, you stay here, besides being with me, don't worry Don't go down to Helou to spend the night."
Mu Su's fingers trembled slightly, and he suddenly understood what Mu Rong meant.
"I mean, if... if He Lou Chengye died, what would you do?" Mu Rong grabbed Mu Su's sleeve and looked at him.
Musu looked at his pale younger brother in front of him, seeing how he would grab his sleeves when he was nervous like when he was a child, and smiled wryly, "What can I do? There are too many people in this world who are alone and their wives are separated." If there are only two of us left in the end, if you want to stay here, we will stay here; if you want to leave, we will go together. We can go anywhere."
Mu Rong laughed suddenly, and then let go of Mu Su's sleeve: "Hahahaha, yes, we have experienced so much, what are we still worrying about here..."
"... We are all numb to loss."
After the autumnal equinox, Da Xia, led by Emperor Xia Zhao Xie Yan, attacked Langyue Daya.Langyue Yewang Helou took the night to lead all his troops to face it head-on.But Ye Wenze learned from Andy that He Lou Chengye was secretly arranging the evacuation and evacuation of Langyue's people.Daya had already become an empty city before the war started, and even the people in Tianyue City, the imperial capital, were constantly moving to other countries.
Musu was a little worried when he learned about it, but he just smiled lightly and said, "He knew a long time ago that this battle will be more dangerous than good."
Mu Rong crossed his legs and said disdainfully: "Is Helou Chengye really the owner of Tianji Pavilion? Why is he like a piece of wood? If I were him, I might as well evacuate all the people earlier, and then disappear into the world. After that, this empty city will be destroyed." Just let Xie Yan get rid of his headache. It is exhausting and useless."
Mu Su looked at the floating black tea leaves in the celadon cup, and said softly: "For him, this battle is not about winning or losing, but about the responsibility of the family and the country. He still made a choice after all."
"Brother, Xie Yan and He Lou Chengye confront each other head-on, the outcome of this battle is not sure." Mu Rong rolled his eyes, and suddenly changed his words: "It can be said that it is crucial to capture the thief first. An important blow."
Mu Su said softly: "In a direct confrontation, Xie Yan will definitely not be able to defeat He Lou Cheng Ye. But..."
Ye Wenze suddenly appeared in front of the two of them, even panting slightly.The weather was approaching sunset, and the air became a little bit cold, but Ye Wenze's surroundings were even filled with heat, and it looked like he was coming here in a hurry.
Mu Su's heart skipped a beat, he stood up, and looked at Ye Wenze, as if he had already anticipated what he would hear next.
"Musu. He Lou Cheng Ye... was defeated. Daya and the subsequent cities were all breached, and Da Xia approached Tianyue City. He Lou Cheng Ye led away the main force of Da Xia by himself, and disappeared into Chifeng Mountain with serious injuries " Ye Wenze said word by word, paused for a moment, and said: "Da Xia's reply to Xie Yan said that life and death are uncertain, but..."
The first person to react was Mu Rong.Mu Rong suddenly stood up: "What do you mean?? He Lou Chengye confronted Xie Yan head-on and lost??? Are you sure Xie Yan didn't play tricks?!"
Ye Wenze shook his head and said: "The specific details are not clear yet. But according to Daxia soldiers, He Lou Chengye's movements were a little stiff. In the final duel, Xiang Shang, who seemed to be able to take Xie Yan's head directly, suddenly changed his mind. Instead, he was seriously injured by Xie Yan. The rest is not clear."
Mu Rong shouted: "How is it possible?! Anyway..."
"Red Maple Mountain...how is Tianyue City today?" Mu Su said abruptly, but his voice was surprisingly calm. .
Ye Wenze said softly: "Yu Wenwen led the rest of the troops to defend Tianyue City. He Lou Cheng Ye seemed to want Yu Wenwen to leave, but Yu Wenwen refused..."
Mu Rong raised his eyebrows and said, "Chifeng Mountain...isn't it the mountain next to Fengcheng... This person really doesn't know how to pick places, did he do it on purpose..."
Ye Wenze looked at Musu's pale face, and suddenly showed a slight smile: "You guys let me finish my sentence. My subordinates searched Chifeng Mountain one step faster than Xia Jun, and found He Lou by night. Although he was seriously injured, his life is temporary. No problem."
With the sound of touching the ground, Mu Su's legs went limp and he fell to the ground. When Mu Rong went to help him, he found that his back was completely soaked.Mu Su, who seemed calm, just now understood exactly how painful his heart was at that moment, and Mu Rong instantly understood.
He raised his head and said angrily: "You are gasping for breath! You are going to die! He Lou Chengye!"
Ye Wenze took a deep breath, turned around and moved out of the way.He looked at a black figure behind him supported by several men in black.
"here."
