The protagonist of fast time travel Halo Crusher

Chapter 225 Let’s Forgive the Lord Hat (34)

Lin Mu pretended to be arrogant: "You relieve me of the soft tendons first, and then get me a table of good wine and food. Maybe I will be interested in talking about it with you."

The man looked at Lin Mu with interest while wearing a mask, and sighed, "He actually likes a girl like you? It's unbelievable."

Lin Mu couldn't figure out who the "he" he was referring to was Chu Mo or Chu Xi, but she knew it was definitely not a good thing, "What's wrong with a girl like me? I'm pretty and have a good personality. There are no lanterns to be found."

The masked man was noncommittal and sat casually aside.

He told the guards: "Go and get some food for this girl, and bring the antidote for Ruanjinsan."

The guard stepped back and did so.

Lin Mu didn't expect this masked man to be quite easy to talk to.

The Shadow Gate was very efficient, and after a while, food and antidote were brought.

She took the antidote first, and gradually, she felt her bodily consciousness recover.

She sat upright and began to eat. The food here was incomparable to that of Prince Xiang's Mansion and the Imperial Palace, but she ate it all after being hungry for a long time.

The masked man was dumbfounded, "Do you... want to eat more?"

"Let's eat it at the next meal. It's good for your health." Lin Mu deliberately pretended to be relaxed and sure of winning, but in fact she didn't have any chips in her hand.

"Eight full?" The masked man was successfully amused.

Lin Mu picked up the handkerchief and wiped his mouth, and said sternly, "Aren't you trying to threaten Chu Mo by kidnapping me? Why don't you bother, let's make a deal between the two of you, and don't need a middleman to make a difference. How good things are."

"You?" The masked man didn't understand Lin Mu's sentence "Don't make the difference with middlemen", but he didn't care.

Obviously, he didn't take Lin Mu seriously, "If he doesn't like you, you are nothing. Just obediently be a meat ticket now, and I will provide you with good food and drink, and wait for him to save you .”

In fact, Lin Mu didn't want to make a deal with the masked man without a middleman to make a difference, she was just trying.

From the man's opening sentence, "He actually likes a girl like you", she began to suspect that the masked man knew the "he" in his words, and there was a subtle familiarity in his tone.

But she was not sure who that "he" was, so she asked this question.

If "he" was Chu Xi, the masked man would not continue to call Chu Mo "he".

Therefore, the masked man knew Chu Mo.

"Since you are so dismissive of my deal? Why did you come to see me in person?" Lin Mu wanted to make sure if this person was taking Joe.

The masked man caressed his forehead, "I just want to see what the world-renowned number one beauty in Shangjing looks like."

Lin Mu did not expect such a reason, "You have seen it now."

"That's all." The masked man shook his head, as if it was a pity.

"But that's it?" Lin Mu couldn't take it anymore. Lu Tingyi's behavior and even her character could be questioned, but with her looks, she was definitely crushed. "Could it be that you have seen a girl who is more beautiful than me?"

"Of course." The masked man smiled softly behind the mask, "Compared to her, you are far behind. She is the most beautiful girl in the world."

Looks like it has a story.

Lin Mu wanted to inquire, so he guided him: "How beautiful is she?"

"She was also a famous beauty in Shangjing at that time. When she smiled at me, I felt that the whole Shangjing was in full bloom." The masked man's tone subconsciously softened.

Lin Mu also lowered his tone so as not to disturb him, "Then can I still see her?"

"Impossible." The masked man slumped, "She died, in the autumn of the eighth year after we separated. At that time, all the flowers fell, and she also withered."

It seems that this is a sad story. The lovers did not end up getting married, but separated from each other. In the end, the woman died of depression, while the man showed others with a mask all day long.

Could the death of the masked male lover have something to do with the imperial court?That's why he joined the Shadow Gate?
Lin Mu hurriedly asked: "Is your joining the Shadow Gate related to that girl's death?"

The masked man leaned back in the chair, folded his arms and took a good rest, "Want to hear my story?"

"Don't talk about it." Lin Mu knew that this kind of person must have a lot of secrets that cannot be understood by outsiders.

She changed the question of interest: "Then do you know King Qi?"

"King Qi?" The masked man responded, "I know you."

Lin Mu pursed his lips, "Can I ask you something."

The masked man thought he had heard a joke and reminded Lin Mu of her identity, "Please ask me something? Don't you find it ridiculous? Miss Prisoner."

Lin Mu seemed to have never heard the masked man's ridicule, and said directly: "Can you please don't tell Chu Mo that King Qi really had contact with the Shadow Gate in the past to conspire against him."

"Alas. It is said in the world that His Royal Highness King An and Princess Xiang had an affair before marriage. Princess Xiang was obsessed with His Royal Highness An, and defended His Royal Highness An regardless of her own safety, but she didn't even have a straight eye for her husband, King Xiang." Mask The man was speechless, "It seems that what the world says is not always true. Do you still have feelings for him?"

Lin Mu was more certain of his thoughts. The masked man had a personal relationship with Chu Mo. He called Chu Mo "he" and called Chu Xi "His Royal Highness An" who was polite and distant.

She rubbed her hair and said intentionally: "Chu Mo is so pitiful, I just sympathize with him. He trusted Zhao Mu so much, but in the end Zhao Mu was from the Shadow Gate, and the only light in his life was King Qi and His mother, I don't want him to be sad anymore. He's so miserable."

She stared at the masked man's eyes, it doesn't matter if he can't see the expression clearly, the eyes are the windows to the soul, she doesn't believe that the masked man's eyes can't reveal anything.

"Sympathy?" The masked man lowered his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.

After a long time, he smiled in a low voice, "You'd better not tell him this for the rest of your life, or he will be even more sad."

This person is so good at disguising, Lin Mu didn't observe any useful emotions at all.

She couldn't deduce the relationship between Chu Mo and the masked man.

The ages of Chu Mo and the masked man, like father and son, are already a generation behind.

Among the elders that Chu Mo knew well, there was no one like that.

Is there anything else he hasn't told himself?

"Don't guess." The masked man interrupted Lin Mu's thoughts, "You have been inquiring about my relationship with him, why didn't you just ask me?"

Lin Mu asked back: "Will you tell me?"

"Of course I will tell you." The masked man sighed, "It's a long story. When I was young, I often stayed in Shangjing, and I was a good friend with King Qi. He took the initiative to make friends with me. On the surface, Prince Qi devoted himself to worshiping Buddha. The heart to seize the throne has never died."

The masked man talked about the old things calmly: "He is an unscrupulous person. He helped Chu Mo, and he did risk being attacked by the Emperor Chen. But the reason is not so simple, not because he is obsessed with Buddhism and Taoism, and he has cultivated a pair of Bodhisattva heart, but because he wants to use Chu Mo's hatred to help him seize the throne."
