The setting sun was like blood, and a few crows were chirping on the broken branches.
An Jing put on a navy blue hood and flew through the forest, feeling the faint light from the book on the ground.
"I didn't expect that one day this book would not only help me find opportunities, but also help me find people."
At this moment, he was looking for Mu Xiaoyun and Jiang Sanjia through the induction in the Book of the Earth.
According to the instructions of the land book, the two of them have escaped from Yuzhou City and arrived outside Yuzhou City. At this moment, there are people from the Cao Gang and the imperial court's arresters inside and outside Yuzhou City. The two of them should be hiding.
stand up.
"It should be in the ruined temple ahead."
An Jing raised his eyebrows and walked slowly into a ruined temple in front of him.
The ruined temple is very dilapidated, with broken porcelain shards and ashes on the ground, and piles of hay in the surrounding corners.
The moment he stepped in, the book on the ground in his mind emitted a strong light.
"Come out."
An Jing said calmly.
There was silence all around, only his empty echo.
"Brother Sanjia, I said, I want to find you at any time." An Jing continued.
"It seems to be Brother Zhou without a doubt."
Jiang Sanjia was seen walking out from behind the dilapidated Buddha statue. His face was as pale as a piece of paper and his steps were limping.
As Jiang Sanjia walked out, Mu Xiaoyun also walked out slowly. Compared to Jiang Sanjia, her face was paler and without any color.
"Where's Mr. Xue Chen?" This was the first thing she said when she saw An Jing, her voice was a little hoarse and dry.
"Dead." An Jing replied.
The news of Xue Chen's death has spread throughout Yuzhou City, and is probably radiating to Jiangnan Road.
"died?"
Mu Xiaoyun was stunned. Although she had already guessed the result, hearing the news at this moment was still like a heavy hammer hitting her chest, weighing her down and making it difficult for her to breathe.
Jiang Sanjia sighed softly and said nothing.
He had already had a premonition about Xue Chen's death. If he could deal with Guo Yuchun alone, Ouyang Yu and others would definitely be no match. If he was lucky enough to escape and ascend to heaven, he would not fail to come here to find them.
An Dingding nodded, "The Caobang people plan to display their heads to the public during the Bon Festival to serve as a warning to others."
"It seems that the Cao Gang really thinks that Xue Chen is you, Brother Zhou." Jiang Sanjia said with a strange expression.
Obviously, the Cao Gang killed Xue Chen just to establish prestige. Wasn't that mysterious swordsman majestic some time ago? Didn't he cause trouble in Yuzhou City? Didn't he challenge the majesty of our Cao Gang?
Well, let's kill this mysterious swordsman now to let you know the price of provoking our Cao Gang.
"fair enough."
An Jing shrugged, then took out a packet of medicinal powder and handed it to Jiang Sanjia, "This is Zhixue Powder, you should stop the bleeding first."
Anyway, he doesn't care about these false reputations. Now that the people in Caogang think that he is dead, it is a good thing for him.
"Thank you very much."
Jiang Sanjia took the hemostasis powder, then sat on the steps and carefully sprinkled the hemostasis powder on his calf, "Brother Zhou, you should bring some food and drink, my stomach has been singing about the empty city strategy in the middle of the night."
An Jing raised his eyebrows and said, "The Cao Gang is chasing you all over the city, and you still want to eat it?"
Jiang Sanjie grinned, "I would rather be caught by the Caogang people than starve to death... Hiss----!"
Hemostasis was sprinkled on the wound, and Jiang Sanjia couldn't help but take a breath of air. The pain was undoubtedly causing the wound to tear open again.
Mu Xiaoyun stood there blankly, a little dazed, as if he had not recovered from An Jing's words.
In a trance, I returned to twenty years ago.
In the back garden of the Mu family, the young Xue Chen was surrounded by several teenagers of the same size as him.
"The porter's son? That's a slave too."
"What kind of place is this that you can come in?"
"You are so brave that you dare to come in even DL's backyard."
...........
Several people started taunting Xue Chen with sarcastic remarks.
"Master, I don't know where this is. I accidentally broke in. Please don't blame me." Xue Chen gritted his teeth and said.
In the Mu family, there is an extremely strict class system. Not all slaves can enter the backyard. Once discovered, they will be severely punished.
"Don't know? It's too late to know now."
One of the young men pushed Xue Chen to the ground and sneered: "Teach him a lesson and let him know the rules of my Mu family."
When several young men heard this, they all stepped forward to punch and kick Xue Chen. They were very cruel and their punches were all heavy-handed.
Xue Chen fell to the ground, gritting his teeth. Even though blood spilled from the corners of his mouth, he still did not beg for mercy.
When several maids in the distance saw this, they hid behind wooden pillars.
"If you go down any further, you'll probably kill someone..."
"Quick, go call someone."
"I...I don't dare."
Several maids looked at each other and could only watch as Xue Chen fell to the ground, his head beaten and bleeding, and his posture looked like he was about to be beaten to death.
"Good boy, this boy is really hard-boned." A trace of anger appeared in the eyes of the leading boy, "Hit me hard, I don't believe you today."
"Stop, what are you doing?"
At this moment, a scolding sound came.
When several teenagers heard this voice, their hands stopped.
"Sister, why are you here?" The young man laughed twice when he saw the person coming.
Who is coming? It is Mu Xiaoyun, the little bully of the Mu family in Yuzhou City. There is no child in the Yuzhou City family who is not afraid of Mu Xiaoyun.
Even his own father would carefully coax her when he saw her, for fear that she would go to the ancestor to complain that day.
"Mu Jinglun, do you only know how to bully slaves?" Mu Xiaoyun said coldly: "A few days ago, when Sumen, the chief disciple of the Five Poison Sect, visited Yuzhou, you were beaten until you were running away with your head in your arms. I think you can
Not so arrogant."
"Sister, I..."
"Why don't you get out quickly?"
"Yes, yes, I will get out now, I will get out now."
Mu Jinglun and several young men fled quickly as if they had received an amnesty, fearing that they would offend Mu Xiaoyun if they were even half a step too late.
"Boy, are you okay?" Mu Xiaoyun asked looking at Xue Chen who was lying on the ground.
"Thank you very much, Miss. Your kindness today will be repaid generously in the future."
Xue Chen struggled hard and saluted Mu Xiaoyun.
"You seem to have some backbone, but repaying a favor is not necessary. I just don't want an innocent person to die innocently." Mu Xiaoyun looked at Xue Chen in front of him and said.
She had seen it clearly just now. Even though Mu Jinglun and others punched and kicked Xue Chen, he never screamed. This was not something that ordinary teenagers could hold on to.
But she, Mu Xiaoyun, is the daughter of the Mu family and needs a servant to repay her kindness?
The young man Xue Chen wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said seriously: "My father told me since I was a child that remembering kindness is like blood."
"No, this is the backyard, you should be more careful in the future."
Mu Xiaoyun waved his hand, and then ordered: "Xiaohuan, tell Uncle Liu and let him rest for a few days."
"Yes, miss." The maid next to her nodded.
After Mu Xiaoyun finished speaking, he took the maid and prepared to leave.
"Miss."
Xue Chen suddenly shouted.
"What's wrong?"
"Xue will never forget today's kindness!"
"You are interested."
Under the sun, the young man looked serious, with a hint of determination in his eyes, while the bright girl had a slight smile on her lips.
The green light is like a bean, but this half of my life I have been filled with love, resentment, anger and ignorance.
