king array

Ling Xun felt that he was worthless, and Mu Jiu's wide sleeves covered his head, so he forgot to cry, and subconsciously chased and sniffed, disturbed by the faint fragrance of orchids in the fabric.

I really like the taste.He closed his eyes slightly, and with the cover of his sleeves, he rubbed lightly with some fascination.Fortunately, there was a faint sound outside the window at this time, and Ling Xun broke away from Mu Jiu in shock, so he didn't lose his composure.

"Who is outside?" Because he was in a bad mood, he didn't have a good temper, and he had a wicked look on his face.

Fang Jue, who did not know when to hide, opened the door and came in, followed by a cautious figure, it was Hui Niang.

"Master Feng." Because Ling Xun robbed the jade pendant just now, Fang Jue's face is still dark at the moment.

Ling Xun raised his eyebrows, "Why did you bring her in?"

"She stood outside by herself, and I don't know how long she has been standing." Responding to this sentence, Fang Jue finally explained the task, and then floated out of the room like a gust of wind.

Ling Xun thought to himself that now this monkey cub's wings are getting harder and harder, and he has to give him a bad face from time to time, and if he finds an opportunity in the future, he must be punished.Thinking of this, he subconsciously cursed a few times, and only when he realized that there was a person sitting across from him did he restrain his mouth in time.

Hui Niang didn't come empty-handed, it was rare to carry a food box in a stable manner, her hair was raised in a bun, her eyebrows were raised and her eyes were peaceful, there was a bit of a mother's taste for no reason.

"Xiao Jiu is working hard again, be careful that you are exhausted, eat some soup to make up for it."

Hui Niang, who treated Mu Jiu like a snake and scorpion during the day, unexpectedly acted uncharacteristically, put the food box in front of Mu Jiu kindly, and brought out a bowl of soup from it. .

"Taste it quickly and see if it suits your taste."

Ling Xun stared blankly at the side, wondering if it's possible that Hui Niang had changed her nature, changed a crazy way, got tired of pretending to be a court lady and pretended to be a mother?Seeing this loving mother, those who didn't know thought Mu Jiu was really her own son.

She actually called him "Xiao Jiu".

Ling Xun was overjoyed, and the depression and grief in his heart also faded a lot, and he watched Mu Jiu's excitement with great interest.But Mu Jiu didn't respond at all. He took the soup bowl and thanked him, then put the things aside and didn't look at Hui Niang much.

"Try it?" Hui Niang was very persistent, looking at Mu Jiu desperately, her eyes were red, it seemed that if Mu Jiu didn't take a sip of her soup, she was being greatly wronged.

Ling Xun just lost his face in front of Mu Jiu, and now he wants to make up for it, so he solemnly acted as a shit-stirring stick: "Huaifeng, after all, it's a little bit of the master's kindness, don't be so negligent, let's have a taste."

"The lord wants me to drink?" Mu Jiu's eyes fell on Ling Xun's face, those bottomless eyes seemed to be able to attract people in.

Ling Xun felt guilty when he saw him, but in the end, his face became hot from those two scorching gazes, as if he had done something wrong.

"Since my lord wants Mu Jiu to drink this bowl of soup, Mu Jiu will drink it." As he spoke, Mu Jiu went to hold the soup bowl.

Ling Xun hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop him, "Hey, I just said a casual joke, why do you take it seriously?"

Mu Jiu looked down at Ling Xun's pair of white paws covering the back of his hand, and said as a matter of course, "As long as the Lord orders, you must not disobey, otherwise how dare you say that you are swearing to die?"

Ling Xun really felt a sense of powerlessness from the bottom of his heart. Originally, he wanted to tease him deliberately, but this time he made himself passive, and was reversed. He regretted that he shouldn't tease someone he couldn't afford, so he had no choice but to take it back embarrassingly. hand, "Forget it, don't drink it, who knows what Hui Niang put in it, don't be poisoned to death."

Mu Jiu felt the soft touch leave her hand, and when she retracted her hand, she unconsciously groped the back of her hand under the cover of her robe sleeve.

In Hui Niang's eyes, it's like seeing her two children bickering and playing. Under the candlelight in the quiet night, her calm appearance is very beautiful, and there is no madness in her quiet eyes. Instead, it was replaced by a strong warmth.

Sensing Hui Niang's unusual gaze, Ling Xun suddenly had a thought, expecting her to make him a bowl of soup.

He lost his mother since he was a child, and he has long forgotten the feeling of being loved by his mother. Now if he can relive it with a crazy woman, even if he drinks all the black soup that is full of five poisons, he will be happy with it.

Just thinking about it, Hui Niang came over and took his hand.

Ling Xun was nervous, wondering what she would call herself this time.

Hui Niang showed him an extremely gentle smile, "Niang Niang, it's getting late, it's time for you to go to bed."

Ling Xun; "..."

With a puff, Fang Jue laughed outside, Ling Xun blushed, and at a glance, Mu Jiu also raised the corners of his lips, watching him with a smile in the flickering candlelight.

However, the smile on Mu Jiu's lips froze in the next moment, and suddenly he swung his sleeves and turned off the lights.

Ling Xun also heard movement at this time, the ground shook faintly, it was the sound of countless horseshoes trampling.His body almost reacted before consciousness, jumped up, stood in front of Mu Jiu, looked out the window vigilantly, and ordered: "Fang Jue, the sound of horseshoes is coming towards the village, be careful to hide!"

"Yes, Lord Feng." Fang Jue replied, and stepped onto the roof with lightness kung fu.

The lacquerware village was surrounded by a cavalry of hundreds of people in a blink of an eye, and the sleeping village was forcibly awakened, and an ominous light was lit.

"Which one is Carpenter Wang? Come out!" The leading officer shouted outside.

Carpenter Wang and his wife put on their clothes, shoes and socks and ran out anxiously, only to see that almost all the villagers had been driven out of their homes. All men, women and children gathered together, surrounded by officers and soldiers holding torches.

"Is there anyone else in the house?" the officer asked Carpenter Wang, but before he could answer, he winked at the people below and signaled them to go in and search.

Ling Xun and Mu Jiu came out at the same time. The officer glanced at them and saw that they were not dressed like villagers, so he asked, "Who are you?"

"Master Jun, the two of us are traveling merchants from Wuling County, and we are staying here." Ling Xun explained politely.

The officer arrogantly raised his horsewhip and shouted: "It doesn't matter where you are from, you are not allowed to leave when you are performing official duties, and stand with the villagers!"

Not knowing where this group of people came from, Ling Xun and Mu Jiu didn't want to get angry easily, so they walked towards the villagers as they said.These villagers were all honest farmers and craftsmen. They had never seen such a battle before. Many people turned pale with fright, and desperately covered the children in their arms to prevent them from crying and howling to attract the attention of officers and soldiers.

The officers and soldiers searched all the houses and confirmed that there were no other people, but they did not find Fang Jue.Ling Xun noticed that Mu Jiu's little boy didn't show up either, so he didn't know where he went.

He whipped his whip a few times, and when he had enough momentum, the officer finally explained the purpose of his visit: "I have come here on order, and someone has reported that you have privately stored the books of formations here. If you want to survive, you must quickly hand over the books." , otherwise..." The officer sneered twice at this point, and his expression became more gloomy, "Otherwise none of you will survive today, and I will have the power to behead you on the spot!"
