The protagonist of fast time travel Halo Crusher

Chapter 227 Let’s Forgive the Lord Hat (36)

It turned out to be Zhao Mu.

Lin Mu was willing to believe him, she put the tendons back to the original place, and followed Zhao Mu to leave here quickly.

After walking for a while, I came to a place that should be regarded as a garden.

It can be regarded as a garden, but it is not quite like a real garden. There are no flowers, but it is empty. The only decorations are the rockery and some lawns.

Zhao Mu heaved a sigh of relief.

Lin Mu poked him on the back, "Zhao Mu, it's the safest choice for us to find Chu Mo."

Zhao Mu had the same idea as Lin Mu, he explained: "Your Majesty will negotiate with the sect master here soon."

"Here?" Lin Mu looked around, "Shouldn't we be negotiating in a grand yet refined room?"

"There are too many people on both sides. Moreover, both sides feel more at ease in the open air. No one in the room knows whether there are any mechanisms." Zhao Mu led Lin Mu into the gap in the rockery, where he could still see through the cracks in the rockery stone. The situation outside.

After a while, people from both sides came, and the scene was quiet.

After a long time, Chu Mo spoke first: "Where is Tingyi?"

"Did the prince bring the person I want?" The leader of the Shadow Gate was dressed in a masked man, and he looked like he was holding the winning ticket, not at all panicked that Lin Mu had already run away.

Chu Mo lowered his head slightly, with an unclear expression on his face, "Bring it."

As soon as he raised his hand, the guard behind him carried an unconscious man forward.

When Lin Mu took a closer look at the man, she was so startled that she almost cried out that it was Chu Xi.

The masked man held Lu Tingyi hostage in exchange for Chu Xi?
It doesn't make sense.

What the masked man wants most is Chu Xi's death?Only when the legitimate heir dies, can he take the real edict to tell the world that Chu Mo is usurping the throne, and then support his puppet.

Could it be that the masked man didn't want to support the eldest prince Chu Han, but Chu Xi?
Illogical.

The masked man must have a deep meaning in wanting Chu Xi.

"Where's Tingyi?" Chu Mo asked again.

The masked man winked at the people around him, and a woman was also brought up.

Lin Mu looked carefully, it seemed to be the maid who was knocked out by him.

The maid's figure was very similar to Lu Tingyi's. When she was supported by someone, her head was drooping, and her hair was disheveled. It was the evening when twilight was approaching, so she couldn't see her face clearly.

Chu Mo stood up and was about to go over to have a look, "What did you do to her?"

The guard supporting the maid quickly backed away.

The masked man clasped his fingers together and floated in front of his chest, feeling very comfortable, "It's just a bit of weakness, it's nothing serious."

Seeing how embarrassed the maid pretending to be Lu Tingyi was, Chu Mo was very anxious: "Let me see how she is doing."

Lin Mu was also very anxious, she was thinking about how to escape to Chu Mo's side.

The rockery is close to the side of the masked man, as long as he makes any movement, the masked man will definitely be able to hijack him.

She now hopes that Chu Mo can find out that the person is pretending to be Lu Tingyi.

Zhao Mu was silent, not knowing what he was thinking.

Lin Mu didn't dare to talk to him, the circle outside was full of martial arts masters, and even the slightest movement between himself and Zhao Mu would be discovered

The masked man didn't let Chu Mo look at him, but he sighed with emotion: "Oh, this Lu Tingyi is indeed the number one beauty in Shangjing. The guards here are very itchy these days. In fact, it's not bad to keep her in my Shadow Gate. This kind of beauty is worth thousands of treasures, and there are many people in my family who want to keep her, so I should reconsider whether I should make this deal with His Majesty."

As soon as these words came out, Chu Mo was in a state of chaos. He didn't even care to check whether it was Lu Tingyi herself. He just wanted to return Lu Tingyi: "We will release people at the same time."

However, Lin Mu sensed something from the masked man's words. The masked man wanted Chu Xi for the treasure. Could it be that Chu Xi knew how to obtain the treasure map.

She looked at the two who were about to exchange hostages, and was very anxious. Chu Xi fell into the hands of the masked man.

At the critical moment, Zhao Mu suddenly got out from the gap in the rockery.

He shouted: "That's fake!"

Chu Mo immediately ordered the people around him to stop their movements.

As soon as Zhao Mu appeared, as Lin Mu expected, he was immediately surrounded by masked men.

"Traitor!" The masked man panicked, and with a wave of his hand, the troops he led immediately fought with Chu Mo's troops.

"Even if you find out, I will keep Chu Xi." The masked man drew out his sword and flew to fight with Chu Mo.

The scene was chaotic.

Seeing that there was only one killer guarding Zhao Mu, Lin Mu put his sword on Zhao Mu's neck.

She took advantage of the unpreparedness and didn't care too much, so she stuffed the prepared soft tendons into the killer's nostrils.

Zhao Mu took the opportunity to snatch the killer's sword, and stood in front of Lin Mu, helping Lin Mu resist the attack, and gradually moved towards Chu Mo.

The fight between Chu Mo and the masked man was very exciting. The two swords collided with fierce sounds and sparks. The speed of the two was so fast that Lin Mu couldn't see the moves clearly.

She was worried about Chu Mo. The masked man was also Chu Mo's martial arts master and the leader of a professional killer organization like the Shadow Sect. She was worried that Chu Mo would be defeated.

Gradually, Chu Mo did seem to move slower than the masked man.

At this moment, Zhao Mu stepped forward to help Chu Mo.

"Zhao Mu?" The masked man couldn't believe it.

Zhao Mu was defeated in martial arts, the masked man spotted a flaw and stabbed it with his sword.

The sword blade penetrated his flesh, and Lin Mu was so scared that he closed his eyes.

"Zhao Mu!" Chu Mo quickly supported him.

"Princess, I didn't... I didn't let the prince down." Zhao Mu tried hard to smile at Lin Mu who had already run behind Chu Mo.

"I know, I know." Lin Mu thought of what he had said about Zhao Mu's betrayal of Chu Mo, and regretted it.

"Zhao Mu, you don't want your sister's life?" The masked man never thought that Zhao Mu would betray the Shadow Gate.

Hearing his sister, Zhao Mu smiled miserably: "Master, please... tell... tell my sister. Brother... I'm sorry... I'm sorry for her. But... Brother can't... Can't make the same mistake again and again. Tell her... ...People can live stealthily, but they can't live with it. I can betray love, but I can't... I can't let the prince die because of betrayal."

"You!" The masked man drew his sword again, and was about to fight Chu Mo again.

Lin Mu suddenly said at this time: "Chu Mo! Take his mask!"

The masked man slowed down his movements for a moment, and a master made a move, and a moment was enough.

The masked man was protecting the mask with his whole body, and received a sword on his arm.

Seeing him wearing the mask like this, Lin Mu confirmed what he thought in his heart.

She already has her own plans.

The whole scene was chaotic, with blood everywhere.

Lin Mu could tell that Chu Mo was bringing fewer and fewer people, and they were almost unable to hold on.

This is the old lair of the Shadow Gate, and if they act rashly, the Shadow Gate has more manpower than Chu Mo, and even if it consumes energy, it will kill him.
