Time flies, and the day for the official departure of the envoy has finally arrived.
Muchuan sat on the carriage, looking out the window at the city of Chang'an that was gradually getting away, and couldn't help feeling filled with emotion.
This is the first time I have left Chang'an City since I traveled through time.
Thinking of traveling to a foreign country this time, Muchuan became even more worried for no reason.
Although Uncle Zhao and Gao Kan are staying at the house, if Changsun Wuji intends to play dirty tricks, it will be difficult for these two people to resist him.
Sighing helplessly, Muchuan stretched out his hand and stared straight into his palm.
I don’t have the power; I don’t have the power.
He slowly clenched his palms, and an uncontrollable feeling of powerlessness surged into his heart.
Different from the high spirits when he first traveled through time, Muchuan now sees the situation clearly.
I am a small number one scholar, but I am an insignificant ant in this Tang Dynasty.
If one day, I am no longer of use to Li Er, I may end up in a very tragic end.
A family with wealth in the world will always be a thorn in the side of the ruler in any dynasty.
Thinking of this, Muchuan couldn't help but tightly closed his eyes.
Perhaps, at some stage, he should dedicate most of his family property to Li Shimin, so that he might be able to achieve peace for the rest of his life.
only
Muchuan clenched his fists tighter, and his nails even dug into his flesh slightly.
Very unwilling.
Muchuan shook his head and stopped thinking about this.
At least, the day of becoming the richest man in the Tang Dynasty has not come yet.
The team of thousands of people kept moving forward. Due to the large size of the team and the large amount of gifts they carried, the speed of the journey was quite slow.
Five days later, the envoys arrived in Luoyang.
"Master Mu, I have been waiting for you for a long time."
In front of the Luoyang City Gate, local officials warmly welcomed the Muchuan crowd.
No one would dare not to fawn over the envoys and ministers appointed by the emperor.
Muchuan forced a smile, but the tired look on his face could not be concealed.
Who knows that walking long distances in ancient times was so tiring, but Muchuan was still sitting in a carriage. If he were riding a horse, I am afraid that his butt would not be his own now.
Under the warm hospitality of local officials, Muchuan also took a good bath.
It was night, Muchuan was lying on the bed and fast asleep.
Suddenly, an extremely subtle sound of footsteps reached Muchuan's ears.
Anyone?
Muchuan opened his eyes suddenly.
An inexplicable fragrance slowly poured into his nose.
This is!
Muchuan couldn't help but tremble all over. No wonder his head was so dizzy. It seemed that he was on the wrong track.
"What happened?"
At this time, there was an extremely subtle sound of communication outside the door.
Muchuan, who originally planned to get up, suppressed his anger and planned to eavesdrop.
"You should have slept to death, right? After all, you have been smoking the ecstasy for an hour."
"Then what are you waiting for? Get the person away quickly."
The door slowly opened, and two people wearing night clothes walked in quietly.
Seeing this, Muchuan quickly closed his eyes and continued to pretend to be asleep.
He almost guessed that the reason why he was not completely knocked out must be related to taking the Shiquan Dabu Pill given by the system.
It can be said that even though Muchuan does not have any combat experience, with the super strong physique given by Shiquan Dabu Pill, he can still fight against dozens of strong men.
From this we can also see that the products produced by the system are of the highest quality.
"Oh, this guy is quite heavy."
"Stop talking and carry the person away quickly, otherwise if the matter is revealed, both you and I will lose our heads."
Even though they were carrying Muchuan, a big living person, the two people walked with almost no sound.
It can be seen that these two people should be well-trained professional assassins, and their background is estimated to be quite complicated.
These two people seemed to be extremely familiar with the terrain and guard arrangements here. They left the house smoothly without disturbing anyone along the way.
After leaving the house and running for about a few miles, a heavily guarded carriage appeared in Muchuan's eyes.
There were about ten people guarding the carriage, each of them wearing uniform night clothes.
Although they couldn't see their appearance clearly, Muchuan could tell they looked elite just by looking at them.
It's not a small background.
Muchuan couldn't help but feel worried. Was it inappropriate for him to go deep into the tiger's den like this?
"You are late."
A rather cold voice came from the carriage.
"My lord, atone for your sins. There are really too many guards around this guy. We must move forward carefully."
The two men were so frightened that they knelt down quickly. It could be heard from their tone that they seemed to be quite afraid of the person in the carriage.
"Forget it, I'll spare you this time. Bring the person closer and let me see if he is the target."
"yes!"
The two men carried Muchuan to the carriage and horses.
At this time, the carriage door curtain was opened, and a sword-like gaze shot out, slashing Muchuan's cheek.
Muchuan even had the illusion that his face was sore as if he had been struck with a knife.
Who is the one?
Muchuan really wanted to open his eyes and take a look, but he knew he couldn't, so he could only close his eyes tightly and pretend to be unconscious.
"Yes, the target is confirmed."
The man in the carriage nodded and said, "Tie him up and take him away."
"Remember, I said above, don't take his life for the time being."
"yes!"
Soon, the sound of a horse-drawn carriage was heard in my ears.
Muchuan narrowed his eyes and glanced, and found that the carriage had left, but the dozen or so men in black remained where they were.
Seeing those people approaching with ropes, Muchuan began to make urgent calculations in his mind.
If you continue to pretend to be asleep, I'm afraid the danger will be beyond your control.
In this way, the only way left is to kill the enemy violently.
From the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the scimitar on the waist of the man in black beside him. Muchuan glanced at the arrangement of the people around him and already had a plan in mind.
The rope was already in front of him, and when Muchuan was about to take action, he suddenly froze.
"New mission, reveal the real murderer behind the scenes. Mission reward: Gunpowder gun. Mission failure penalty: None."
A system task that had not appeared for a long time unexpectedly appeared at this juncture.
Moreover, the mission reward is a cheat-level prop like a gunpowder gun.
As for why there was no mission punishment this time, Muchuan was very open-minded.
If this fails, your life will definitely be lost, so there is no need to impose any additional punishment.
Under the temptation of the gunpowder gun, Muchuan had no choice but to let the other party tie him up.
To be honest, this group of people were very meticulous in executing the mission instructions. They said they should tie them firmly, but the ties were indeed extremely strong.
Muchuan is just like a rice dumpling now.
"take away."
Then Muchuan was placed on the horse and ran off to an unknown destination.
Since his face was also covered with a hood, Muchuan didn't know exactly where he ended up along the way.
But Muchuan was not idle either, he kept trying to use brute force to break the rope.
It's just that the idea is beautiful, but the reality is quite cruel.
The ropes used by these people were probably specially made. It would be difficult even for an elephant to break free, let alone Muchuan.
To be honest, Muchuan already regretted it a little.
