It was as if a basin of ice water had been poured on Cui Yuzheng, and he was chilled from head to toe.
Wang Ou's joyful voice reached his ears, like a knife piercing his heart.
Bitch! I treat you wholeheartedly and wish I could tear out my heart and give it to you. Why don’t you care at all! It’s him instead. What has he done for you? You are so devoted to him!
"...I'm really happy that Mr. Lang can come to see me. He still cares about me and our children -" Wang Ou was a little excited and said: "Nayi, hurry up, make arrangements, I'm going to see you
Langjun."
The holy envoy known as Nayi said: "Holy girl, it's getting late, and your body... really can't bear the slightest bumps. No matter how anxious you are, you won't be in a hurry. I will pick you up early tomorrow morning.
.Before noon, I guarantee that the saint will see you."
"This..." Wang Ou hesitated for a while and said: "Okay, then tomorrow morning. Nayi, you must get up early, go early, and come back early."
"My subordinates will definitely go early if they know about it."
After comforting her for a while, Wang Ou reluctantly fell asleep. She couldn't sleep at first, but pregnancy was like this, and her sleepiness was out of control. After Nayi lit a soothing incense for her, she fell into a deep sleep.
Nayi came out of the room and closed the door gently. Before she could turn around, a hand suddenly stretched out from behind. Nayi's kung fu was not weak, and she didn't notice it at all!
This hand covered Nayi's mouth. Nayi was terrified because she suddenly discovered that the hands covering her mouth had fine scales, like snake-like scales!
She thought of a rumor. Recently, people often disappeared inexplicably on the holy mountain. Some people said that this was a monster in the mountain that was causing trouble and eating people. Could it be possible that she encountered it today?
Suddenly, Nayi felt a huge force coming and she was thrown to the ground.
"Nayi, you have disappointed this leader!"
It was the voice of the leader! The monster in the mountain turned out to be the leader! Nayi backed away in fear, and suddenly a cool breeze blew behind her. She looked back and saw that she had already reached the cliff at the top of the mountain.
Just a short while ago, she was actually taken to the top of the mountain. How fast is the leader's movement!
"As an envoy of the Saint, you are also a member of the Snake Spirit Cult. You don't want to be loyal to the leader, but you actually want to help the Saint steal someone. What are your intentions?"
"Master, I know my mistake. Please listen to my explanation..."
"You don't need to explain." Cui Yuzheng laughed sternly, and the infiltrating laughter carried far away with the mountain wind: "Being disloyal to the leader is betraying the Holy Religion. Traitor, you should be eaten by thousands of snakes.
die!"
"No, leader..." After hearing this, Nayi was really scared. She tried hard to bite her tongue and commit suicide, but how could Cui Yuzheng let her die so easily? He stretched out his hand and squeezed her jaw and removed it.
, Nayi could not open or close her mouth, and her eyes showed despair.
"Go to hell!"
Cui Yuzheng pushed, and Nayi fell down the cliff. At the bottom of the cliff is the holy pool of the Snake Spirit Cult. Countless snakes are densely packed and layered on top of each other. If a person falls, he will fall on the snake. If he falls, he will not die, but he will alarm the snakes.
What follows is the murder of thousands of snakes, whose bones will be chewed clean.
Standing next to the cliff, the mountain wind mixed with the smell of blood blew. Cui Yuzheng stuck out his tongue like a pervert, as if he was tasting something delicious.
"Those who betray me will all die!"
"Someone is coming!"
A man in brown clothes appeared behind Cui Yuzheng.
"Go, capture that person alive and bring him before my leader!"
…
At the foot of the Holy Mountain, people in brown clothes were gathering, and soon there were three to five hundred people. The Miao people had few horses, but they all had horses. The white horses looked particularly eye-catching in the dark night.
The people in brown clothes all had their faces covered, with only two eyes exposed. In the dark night, they looked like a mountain breeze.
The leader took a quick look and confirmed that the number of people was almost there. He drew out his machete and pointed forward, and rushed down the mountain like a flash flood.
It's as fast as wind and as aggressive as fire!
As the most elite cavalry of the Snake Spirit that has been passed down for thousands of years, the combat effectiveness of this team is definitely not weaker than that of the Tang Dynasty Iron Cavalry. However, the number is too small, and it will not be of much use during the war. If there are five such people
Qian, in this small area of Miao territory, it is absolutely overwhelming.
The speed of their arrival was much faster than the speed of the Holy Envoy's return. It was already dark and they had already arrived at the market.
At this time, Mouse Jing had just finished enjoying the concubine he had snatched from a certain Miao village. He was exhausted and was about to go to sleep. Suddenly, he heard an earthquake trembling in the ground, and he was so frightened that he rolled off the bed.
"The earth dragon has turned over?"
The so-called earth dragon turns over is an earthquake. This kind of thing is not common in Miao territory, but it does happen. Sometimes it rains too much and mudslides cause landslides, which feels like an earthquake.
The rat spirit was a man who cared about his life. Hearing the trembling sound, the concubine couldn't care less. She grabbed her clothes and crawled out. As soon as she walked outside, she saw her subordinates were also crawling around.
When he ran out, one of them actually came out of his concubine's house in another room. If he hadn't run for his life, he would definitely have drawn his knife and hacked this kid into pieces.
But at this time, there is not much else to worry about.
Everyone ran out of the yard and came to the street, just in time to see the man in brown clothes breaking into the market. Seeing them, the man in brown clothes also stopped.
The horse's hooves stopped, and the tremor disappeared. Only then did the rat spirit realize that it was not a dragon that had fallen over, but that this group of people had done something wrong, and he became furious!
Only the Miao people know the details of the existence of the brown-clothed people. For Han officials like Mo Zijing, they don’t know what these people mean. Even if they know, they probably won’t take it seriously.
In their eyes, the Miao people are inferior to others. You untouchables, no matter how powerful and domineering you are, do you still dare to touch me?
"Master Ge, please let me go!" The rat spirit cursed loudly, walked up to the man in brown clothes, pointed at the leader, and cursed: "You bunch of young dogs, you are so bold! You are so presumptuous! You don't even want to look at this."
What place is it and what time is it! It’s not bright yet and the chickens haven’t crow. You won’t wait outside anymore and come here to disturb me while I’m sleeping!”
"Sir, I have some private matters to attend to!" The leader of the men in brown clothes was quite steady. He stopped the men behind him from drawing their swords with his eyes and said respectfully.
"Bah!" The rat spirit spat out thick phlegm and sprayed it on the head of the white horse under the leader's crotch. The white horse took two steps back in disgust, roaring, and all the men in brown drew their swords.
"Drink! You even drew your sword. How dare you touch me? Do you want to rebel?"
The rat spirit stretched out his neck and shouted: "Come on, chop here, I will take a look today, do you dare!"
"Then it's better to be respectful than to obey!"
"Come on, come on, chop me to death!"
brush!
In a flash of white light, the leader of the brown-clothed man's scimitar had been returned to its sheath. A headless corpse stood in the middle of the street, looking particularly terrifying!
When all the gangsters saw this, they all hated their parents for having two legs. They had no time to put on their clothes and trousers, so they ran away with their buttocks naked.
The leader of the men in brown rode over, took off the clothes of the headless corpse, wiped the mucus off the horse's head, and passed by expressionlessly.
"Surround the inn and arrest people alive!"
"yes!"
…
The market is not big, so when there is movement outside, Li Mu hears it. Dad Ada, Zhenyu, and the two holy envoys naturally hear it too. They are originally black seedlings, and they recognize the people in brown clothes and know them.
What was it for? At this time, the men in brown were dispatched. Zhenyu and Ada finally confirmed that what Li Mu said was true. There might really be something between him and the saint.
Otherwise, why would the leader send the men in brown to catch him?
Dad Ada was a little hesitant. He was a Miao man and had instinctive obedience to the leader of the Snake Spirit. But Li Mu helped him out today and was regarded as his benefactor. Whether to be loyal to the leader or to repay his benefactor, this upright Miao man was not torn.
.
Zhenyu didn't think so much. She had no impression of the leader. Instead, she was grateful to the saint who had done countless good things for the Miao family. If Li Mu died, the saint would be heartbroken and her child would be without a father.
.Thinking of these is enough for Zhenyu to make a decision.
"Go quickly!" Zhenyu pulled Li Mu up and said urgently: "If you don't leave, your life will be lost. Do you know who is outside?"
"I know." Li Mu was extremely calm at this time and said: "I was shot by their archers and fell into the river."
"Then why don't you run away?" Zhenyu handed Li Mu her scimitar and said, "Take this and hide in the woods first." She then handed the bag to Li Mu and said, "Enough for you to eat for three days."
It’s been five days, don’t come out!”
"It's useless." Li Mu smiled bitterly and said: "There are at least three to five hundred people coming. How can I outrun their four legs with two legs? Besides, if I run away, they will definitely be angry with you. Didn't you see them killing people?"
What?"
Zhenyu said anxiously: "We are Miao people, they won't kill us, please leave quickly!"
After saying that, he dragged Li Mu out. Pangda seemed to understand the situation and lay down on the ground to let Li Mu climb on its back. Li Mu smiled bitterly, silly son, your color is the best target, really
It's crawling on you, and it's impossible not to be found.
Helpless, Li Mu had no choice but to follow Zhen Yu's strength and follow her out. As soon as he reached the door, he was stopped by two holy envoys. They didn't know the true relationship between Li Mu and Wang Ou, but they were also members of the Snake Spirit Sect.
They are still loyal to the leader in name. Now that the men in brown are here, they cannot let Li Mu go.
"If you kill him, the saints will definitely blame you!" Zhenyu tried his best to defend, but the two saints were unmoved. Panda was furious and wanted to go berserk. While they were entangled, the man in brown had already barged in.
Coming.
"Are you Li Mu?"
"No, he's not!" Before Li Mu could speak, Zhenyu said it for him. Panda also stood in front of Li Mu, looking desperate.
Li Mu was originally very nervous, but when he heard the leader's voice, he suddenly became less nervous. He stretched out his hand to push the person away, and walked to the front: "I don't want to change my name, I don't want to change my surname. Li Mu is me, I am
Li Mu!"
"It's you I'm going to catch!" The leader of the man in brown waved his hand, and the two men behind him rode over. They used a special lasso to tie Li Mu up firmly and get him onto the horse's back.
Panda wanted to rush over, but Li Mu stopped him with his eyes: "Go to your mother, only your mother can save me!"
Panda hesitated for a moment, and instead of fighting for his life, he turned around and knocked out another big hole in the wooden door of the inn. He didn't know where he went.
"Excuse me." The leader of the men in brown said to Father Ada and threw him a money bag. Then everyone exited the inn, followed by the two holy envoys. The sound of horse hooves gradually faded away, and the market became quiet again.
Dad Ada regained his composure and opened the money bag. There was a shining silver inside, and there were twenty taels of silver.
"Good guy, this makes more money than running an inn. After doing this several times a year, I don't have to do anything anymore." Dad Ada looked at the silver ingot in his hand, suddenly felt something was wrong, and murmured: "We are in Xuzhou
My silver has always been exchanged for this kind of ingot. I saw one yesterday and two more today. It’s really weird.”
Zhenyu started to cry: "Dad Ada, everyone has been taken away, but you are still in the mood to count money!"
"Oh, little girl." Dad Ada comforted him: "Didn't you see who came to arrest him? That's the leader's people! We are Miao people, and that kid is Han, so we still have to handle him clearly.
!”
"ungrateful!"
"Hey, what do you mean, we are Miao people!"
"Ignore you, I'll save people myself!" Zhenyu said, went back to the room, took his own baggage, put it on his back, got out of the hole made by Panda, and chased him along the road.
Father Ada poked his head out of the hole to look at her, shook his head, and sighed: "The daughter of the Miao family is just infatuated. When she likes her, she doesn't know what stupid things she will do."
Shaking his head and carrying his money bag, Ada's father went back to his room to sleep. He didn't want to take care of the holes. Opening an inn here would be too much trouble. He planned to sell the inn tomorrow. How many could he sell?
Money is just a few dollars. Anyway, with these twenty taels, you will definitely not lose anything.
…
As the horse's back jolted, Li Mu changed to a comfortable position and lay down, talking to the leader of the brown-clothed men: "Jiu'er, how did you sneak in? These people are all ours?"
"Yes." Dugujiu lowered his voice and said, "We crossed the river from the ferry. After landing, we followed the map sent by Duke Ju and drove to Sheling Mountain. While we were resting, we met this group of people walking by the roadside.
However, I recognized their clothes and killed them."
"Kill them all?"
"We left a few alive, otherwise how would we know what they were going to do?"
"So powerful." Li Mu clicked his tongue and said, "These people must be dead soldiers. How did you ask?"
"Brother, I have a person who specializes in this." Dugujiu said calmly like a cold-blooded animal: "He skinned one person in front of the living person, and the rest of the people will be honest.
It’s all said and done without any effort.”
"..." Li Mu swallowed and said, "It's a bit cruel, please be more careful in the future."
Dugujiu snorted and said: "When they shot the cold arrow, they should have known that there would be such a fate. No matter how cruel they are, it is the retribution they deserve!"
