Chapter 20: The night, the wind and rain

The Sixth Princess of Qingqiu's wish to fight Su Mu did not come true in the end.

This Zhenwu Tournament finally ended with a nominal draw between the two sides. The monks of the Great Zhou Dynasty felt that Su Mu's last sword was wonderful, and they felt much better.

Qingqiu Fox Country feels that it is extremely good to achieve such results in a competition with the most powerful country in the Kyushu Continent.

A few days later, it was a quiet night. The wind was blowing wildly in Chaoge City, and the rain was blowing aimlessly in the wind.

Along the quiet and empty street, an oil-paper umbrella was walking in the rain.

At this time, the night market in Chaoge City has ended, and with such heavy wind and rain, few people are willing to stay on the street.

Su Mu walked in the rain.

Occasionally, you can see three or two people in rags living a difficult life next to the abandoned carriages on the street and in the dark alleys.

When these people saw Su Mu, they picked up the broken bowl at their feet, hunched over and unable to straighten their backs despite the wind and rain, "Master, take pity on us, give us some."

Su Mu looked behind him.

In that dilapidated carriage, a young man who was probably only seven or eight years old saluted Su Mu with his frostbitten hands, "Brother, give us some."

Boom!

A few scattered pieces of silver fell into the worn old bowl together with the cold rain.

The man's family immediately knelt on the ground and thanked him profusely.

Su Mu looked towards the end of the long street. There was a teahouse over there, "Let's leave here tonight. This street is not peaceful tonight."

Until Su Mu disappeared at the end of the long street, you could still hear the family talking about meeting a good person.

Su Mu, who had suffered deeply in poverty, once thought about the possibility that one day he would meet someone he thought was noble and his poverty would be completely changed.

Of course, he also thought about throwing fifty taels of silver directly to the family who was still begging in the wind and rain.

But he knew even more clearly that if he gave it to them, the whole family would not be able to go through the night quietly.

Even if he could help them get through tonight, he would never be able to stay here and help them through countless days and nights.

...

After all, this street is not far from the Kyoto government office, and it is also very well repaired. The drainage system under the ground is very good. Along the way, Su Mu saw no water on the ground and no rainwater on his body.

"Huixianju,"

Su Mu was like an ordinary guest who came to this teahouse for the first time, looking expectantly at the plaque hanging above.

Then he walked forward and knocked on the door.

The door opens.

He was an ordinary-looking young man. When he saw Su Mu, the young man was quite surprised, "Mr. Bai? Why are you here at this time?"

Yes, the person Su Mu transformed into using Thousand Faces Observation was the Baiyun Jin who appeared at the Zhenwu Conference.

In Kyoto, this is definitely an excellent status, even if it is not guided by the aura of Bai Yunjin.

Because Su Mu didn't need this identity for a long time.

"Of course I came here to drink tea," Su Mu looked inside and saw Wednesday, who was preparing tea inside.

Hearing Su Mu's words, the young man felt strange, "It's so late, the young master comes to drink tea?"

"Isn't it possible?"

"It's not impossible, it's just not advisable to drink tea before going to bed."

The goal is determined and action can be taken.

Wu Gu's power rippled slightly in Su Mu's veins.

So, the sword rose.

On a rainy night, in front of the teahouse, the only two lanterns that emitted light fell as two extreme white lights passed by.

The sudden change came too quickly for the young man.

The same is true for Wednesday in the teahouse.

But he is worthy of being a person who fled and killed people sent by Shushan many times.

His reaction was so fast that it was also a surprise to Su Mu. The tea in his hand turned into a dark point and hit Su Mu, and then easily penetrated Su Mu's body.

"Um?"

Wednesday was confused, thinking that Shushan could not possibly send such a weak person.

The next moment.

Around the tea house, the two bricks and stones located at the earthquake level and the ridge level were broken by two pure Yang sword energy, and Su Mu's real figure had also arrived on the roof of the tea house.

The Tasu Immortal Sword cut through the wind chime that Mo Qianyu mentioned without any surprise.

Cutting off the lantern is just an appearance.

Fortunately, Su Mu had this consideration, otherwise with Wednesday's vigilance and reaction, it would be difficult for him to destroy the two places Mo Qianyu mentioned at the same time.

"The five spirits return!"

Wednesday realized that he had been deceived, and realized even more that the people who appeared here this time were not simply with the intention of capturing or killing the Shushan traitors.

He often walks on the edge of the abyss and often faces sudden assassinations.

Wednesday has its own set of survival rules.

In a situation like this, if the opponent accurately breaks the formation he has set up, he may have visited his teahouse more than once in the past dozens of days.

But he didn't notice it at all, which shows how advanced the other party's cultivation is.

This is an action that has been planned for a long time.

In this case, Thirty-six Stratagems are the best!

Yes, in such a short period of time, Wednesday decided to give up the teahouse that he had been running for a long time.

"Water Escape!"

He didn't even think about having the slightest entanglement with Su Mu, so he turned into a ball of water and entered the wind and rain.

"This is a good escape technique," Su Mu looked at Wednesday. In an instant, Wednesday turned into water droplets falling from the night sky. Even he couldn't tell where Wednesday was.

However, he does not need to distinguish.

At this moment.

Many people also ran out of the teahouse.

They stood in the rain, releasing true energy from their bodies, and stared at Su Mu on the roof of the teahouse.

The reason why they didn't take action directly was because they discovered that Wednesday, their leader, actually ran away?

"Everyone, let's take it easy,"

Su Mu looked at the people below with a smile and said, "You can't escape tonight."

The Tasu Immortal Sword hung behind Su Mu, making a crisp sword sound and piercing through the raindrops hitting the ground.

"But I want to try it!" A man holding a machete walked out of the crowd.

"If you don't believe it, look at it," Su Mu pointed up to the night sky.

"There's nothing?" one person said confusedly.

"Take a closer look."

In the deep night sky, until the raindrops could no longer be seen, slight fluctuations suddenly appeared, and a few thin golden lines suddenly appeared in the sky.

Immediately afterwards, a fiery red light appeared from deep in the night sky.

And underneath the light, there was a falling figure.

It was Wednesday that just escaped.

He fell heavily to the ground, and the severe pain made him suddenly feel that it would be better if the streets in Chaoge City were worse, so that there would at least be some water.

"Mo Qianyu, it's you,"

Zhou Zhou got up from the ground and looked up at the woman in plain clothes sitting on the eaves of the teahouse. He understood a lot, "It turns out that you broke my formation."
