After hurriedly looking up and down, Sun Huo felt that the Wangchuan Building looked ordinary in appearance, no different from an ordinary inn, and did not present any special decoration or features.
Moreover, Mu Xin did not leave him any time to take a closer look or murmur secretly. He quickly walked inside without hesitation, as if he was very familiar with the place. This forced Sun Huo to follow closely.
It’s not good to stay outside the door alone.
After entering the gate, he looked around and saw that the hall was quite deserted. Except for the middle-aged shopkeeper who was talking to Mu Xin at the counter, there was only a waiter of seventeen or eighteen years old. There were no other customers or servants.
.
Feeling a little surprised, Sun Huo quickly thought about it. Sun Huo soon relieved his doubts and walked forward without thinking any more.
Coming to Mu Xin's side, Sun Huo heard him ask for two guest rooms of local size, and then he glanced at himself intentionally or unintentionally, and added, "If there are any good food and wine nearby, I'd be fine."
The previous table was brought over."
The shopkeeper didn't show any special expression to the first request, but when he heard the request to prepare wine and food, his face showed surprise, but he agreed immediately.
"If you have no other needs, please pay the room fee first, and then Awu will take you to the room, and the food and drinks will be delivered later." The middle-aged shopkeeper wrote something in a book like an account book, and then lifted it up
Started and said calmly.
"Okay." Mu Xin just replied briefly, and then without hesitation, he took out a small cloth bag, lifted the bottom and dragged it on the table, and immediately poured out a small piece of spiritual stone spread out.
Sun Huo glanced briefly and immediately saw that the amount was as much as twenty yuan, and his expression changed greatly.
He has mastered the secret technique of dividing gold. Although he can be said to be a living spiritual stone mine, he does not need to worry about being short of money. But such outrageous hotel expenses are unheard of, not to mention Sun Huo doesn't think Mu Xin will be better than him.
As a special case, I have a net worth, so I can pay for the spiritual stones without any mercy.
Therefore, he subconsciously took a step forward and suggested in a slightly hurried tone: "Mu Xin, let's find another place to stay. If you think you must stay here, then at least let me pay my share."
"No, you've already taken it out, so there's no need to go to the trouble of taking it back." Mu Xin bluntly rejected his proposal. On the contrary, after hearing this conversation, the middle-aged shopkeeper raised his eyes and looked at Sun again.
I got angry, but didn’t say much.
After counting and putting away the spirit stones, the middle-aged shopkeeper ordered the young man on the side to lead the two of them to check in. To Sun Huo's surprise again, the room Mu Xin ordered was not the wooden building that went up.
The upper room leads to a stone room on the ground floor.
The stone room is not large in area. In addition to stone tables and chairs, there is also a long bluestone bed for people to rest and meditate.
Mu Xin sat on a stone chair grandly, looked up and looked at Sun Huo standing not far away, seemingly a little reserved, and waved carelessly: "You must be tired after flying for so long, come and sit with us.
”
Sun Huo hesitated after hearing this, then nodded and sat down opposite Mu Xin, and then the two of them kept silent again with their own thoughts.
Not long after, the waiter walked in with a food tray and placed the food and wine on the table one by one. In Sun Huo's opinion, although these wines and food were quite exquisite, they were not as good as those he served in the sect.
Those delicacies that Hu eats and drinks.
After the young man finished arranging the dishes and took his leave, Mu Xin stood up and walked to the edge of the stone room, stretched out a palm and pressed it on the wall, stimulating the restraint in it before returning to his seat.
"Although these wines and dishes are good, they are not as good as those in the restaurant inside the door. Now I have to make do with you and eat some to fill your stomach. Now the soundproofing and anti-peeping ban have been activated here. If you have anything to say, just say it."
Mu Xin took the first step to take a bite of the food with his chopsticks, and then said casually.
Sun Huo couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when he heard this. It seemed that his previous flamboyant behavior of eating and drinking in Zongnei Mountain seemed to have left people with the impression of greed for food and drink. But under the current situation, he couldn't care less about this.
.
"Mu Xin, since you said so, I still want to ask the question at the beginning, what is the specific content of this investigation mission?" He did not move his chopsticks, but took a deep breath and spoke without blinking.
He looked at the other person and asked.
Listening to Sun Huo's question, Mu Xin's face did not change. Instead, he looked at a steamed fish with interest and picked up a piece of back meat. "This mission is to go deep into the Tiansha Sect's territory and obtain...
Return a copy of the intelligence information collected by the undercover, and check to see if the other party has any special movements."
Sun Huo took a breath of cold air in his heart, and his two thick eyebrows suddenly knit together. Tiansha Sect is not only one of the six sects of the Demonic Way, but the sect is also three points stronger than Luo Yun Sect. What's more important is that the members of this sect may be because of their cultivation.
Affected by the martial arts, his temperament tends to be ruthless, so once the incident is exposed, I am afraid that the outcome will not only be death, but it will be easy to escape. Moreover, if you go deep into the hinterland this time, you will have to take huge risks.
"Come on, eat quickly. It won't taste good if it's cold. The amount on this table is less than half of what you can eat alone, so don't waste it." Seeing Sun Huo sitting blankly without moving his chopsticks, Mu Xin didn't think so.
Unexpectedly, he shouted to persuade him to eat.
"Are you really not optimistic about this mission?" Sun Huoyi finally picked up a mouthful of vegetables and put it into his mouth. He chewed it twice before swallowing it whole and asked again.
Mu Xin poured himself a full glass of water and wine, drank it down, and suddenly said to Sun Huo with a smile on his face. "How can I put this? It depends on our luck. If the trip goes well, then we will go on a long trip."
It's usually simple; but if something unexpected happens on the way, or if you happen to bump into a disciple of the other party and you can't handle it, escaping for your life will be just wishful thinking."
In Mu Xin's opinion, if the information this time is very important, for the sake of caution, it would be more appropriate to send veterans to carry it out, rather than letting the inexperienced Sun Huo participate as his first personal secret guard mission.
.
Just when Mu Xin recovered from the bleak prospect, he was surprised to find that Sun Huo opposite him was taking down his chopsticks with an indifferent expression, as if he had not heard the previous questions and answers.
"Xueyan, aren't you scared?" Mu Xin couldn't sit still now, so he could only stop the opponent's chopsticks and asked.
"Since it's not a fatal mission, there's nothing to be timid about. And since the higher-ups have chosen me to help you carry out it, I should complete it beautifully to prove that they didn't misjudge the person, right?" Sun
Huo put the food into his mouth and explained in a somewhat unclear manner.
Hearing such an answer, Mu Xin really felt depressed. He never expected that Sun Huo could throw his own life and death behind in the blink of an eye. Instead, he had to prove himself and win recognition from above, which was unrealistic.
Thoughts.
"This is like a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers. He is fearless because of his ignorance! I hope he is lucky enough to be a newcomer this time and can complete this trip smoothly." Mu Xin thought helplessly, comforting himself, and then said no more.
I asked others and shared the wine and food.
After eating and drinking, Mu Xin took out something from his storage bag and threw it over. Sun Huo quickly took it and found it was a small white porcelain bottle, which obviously contained some kind of elixir.<
/p>
"I knew that even though you spoke so venomously, you still cared about me." Sun Huo narrowed his eyes with a proud smile.
"Haha, I care about you? If you knew what was in the bottle, would you be able to say the same thing?" Mu Xin sneered after hearing this and lowered his eyelids.
Seeing such a reaction, Sun Huo couldn't help but start to doubt what he had just thought. He reached out and pulled off the bottle cap, put it under his nose and smelled it. An extremely pungent bitter smell rushed into his brain, making him unable to help but start crying.
.
"What is this? Did you give me poison?" Sun Huo panted for a while before returning to normal, and asked angrily.
Mu Xin held his head with one hand and looked at Sun Huo's embarrassment with a look of gloating on his face. "Yes, it is poison, and it is specially made for you. In addition to killing you quickly, this medicine will also cause
It corroded from the inside and turned into a pool of blood, with no bones left."
Sun Huo felt a little chill in his body. Before he could ask further questions, Mu Xin had already stood up and turned his back to him. "I don't know if you know the value of your body. Even if you die, it's still worth it."
Excellent materials for making corpse refining. In some ways, you are also a good choice for some reborn people to seize the body. Therefore, no matter alive or dead, the sect will not let you fall into the hands of others. What is in this bottle is
A means of ending things when necessary."
"I understand." After a moment of silence, a low but powerful voice sounded in the room, conveying a firm attitude.
"Then let's have a good rest tonight. We have to continue our journey tomorrow. In addition, there is a mechanism on the leg of the stone table. After pressing it, a hidden grid will appear. Keep all the items on your body that can be seen to be related to the Luoyun Sect.
Inside."
After explaining this, Mu Xin did not stay any longer and went to the room next door to rest. Sun Huo sat alone at the table, looking at the medicine bottle in his left hand and the tools and talismans in his right hand, and fell into a long period of contemplation.
