Chapter 81 The Silent Wasteland
"impossible!"
Before Mu Jingchen could speak, Zou Weiyi slapped the car window first,
"Does the detention order come as soon as you say it? The Mu family has been loyal and hardworking for generations, and Uncle Mu and Mu Jingchen are dedicated to suppressing bandits and chaos. How could it be the turn of the inspection committee to ask for someone?"
Zou Weiyi seldom shows impatience, just because he has always been involved in serious crimes of corruption and gangsters with the inspection committee. Mu Jingchen said that exaggerating can be regarded as Yulin's No. Putting on the label of "greedy" means that there is no need for the Mu family's financial resources to be corrupted. I'm afraid it's all slander and frame-up by someone with intentions to stop him.
"Young Master Zou, stay safe and don't be impatient. Whether the final round will be taken over by the inspection committee, it will naturally be clear after Young Master Mu and I return to the military headquarters for investigation."
As the man said, he had already stretched out his hand to firmly hold the half-lowered car window, worried that Mu Jingchen would kick the accelerator and escape from the city.
"Even if Commander Cai himself wants to meet with me, he still has to make an appointment in advance. I'm making an exception if I give you time to listen to your explanation. You don't really plan to let me go to the military headquarters with you without any evidence, do you?"
"of course not."
The man unhurriedly took out a small dark red certificate from his pocket, which was the certificate that only the dreaded Commissioner of the Inspection Commission could hold.
"There are certificates and orders. If Young Master Mu refuses to follow, it is considered a disobedience to the military orders. Don't forget, young master, no matter how high your military rank is, you still have to listen to Commander Cai when you return to the city... ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
Mu Jingchen didn't have the patience to wait until the slow-moving man finished his official words, stepped on the gas pedal and rushed out of the city gate. Falling into the gray marks rolled by the tires, no matter how angrily he yelled Mu Jingchen's name, he couldn't keep the car that had gone away for half a step.
The brightly lit Yulin City Pass was forgotten in a blink of an eye, but Zou Weiyi was still holding the draft paper in his arms and huddled in his seat in a daze, until Mu Jingchen raised his voice and called out to him.
"Young Master Zou, are you scared out of your wits?"
"Ah? Ah... why did you leave the city in a blink of an eye?"
Zou Weiyi swallowed, "That man was pulling on your window just now, I think he was dragged out a long way... You are too stupid, what if he gets hurt? I don't want to sue you again."
"Then it's all like I'm cleaning up the trash in the military headquarters,"
Mu Jingchen snorted coldly, "If he can't even avoid this, he won't have the face to sue me."
"Not everyone in your military department can beat three cows to death. What if he is a clerk... I just saw that he can really produce evidence. I heard that if there is no real evidence, the inspection committee will That group of people will not send commissioners casually, you, you won't really have a handle to be caught by them, right?"
It would be a lie to say that he is not worried. Although Zou Weiyi is obsessed with art, he has grown up listening to the stories in Vanity Fair since he was a child, and his ability to listen to the wind is not inferior.
"What handle?"
Mu Jingchen pursed his lips,
"One year I led the Mu family army to fight against the fire in the front, but the food and supplies in the back were delayed. Fortunately, there was no danger in the end. After the war, I had time to investigate the matter. I found that it was not that there was nothing, but all People took it into their own pockets and exchanged it for money. We won that battle, but many brothers died in vain. I hate people who are greedy for military salaries more than anyone else, and I know better than anyone else that falling into them The money in the pockets is dirty money clotted with the blood of frontline soldiers."
"Of course I know you won't and don't bother to do such bad things,"
Zou Weiyi sighed, "I'm afraid that you didn't do it, but someone with a heart can piece together the illusion that you did. Even if the slander is self-defeating, it will be enough to scare you for a while."
"As long as Yutang is fine, I have plenty of energy to deal with them."
When Mu Jingchen read Yutang's name, Zou Weiyi couldn't help but shuddered because of Mu Jingchen's calm and gloomy expression. The restrained anger of prey was much more terrifying than the violent anger shown on the surface.
Unknowingly, the night had darkened, and the lingering light in the sky was slowly disturbed by the creaking sound of the wheels as the wheels rolled over the empty straw, and the vision in the wild forest was reduced to the minimum. Zou Weiyi estimated according to the terrain. The location of the exit covered a large area of lush bushes, surrounded by Mu Jingchen and Zhen Hui's respective leaders.
Zou Weiyi was left in the car by Mu Jingchen for safety. He rarely had the opportunity to go out of the city at night, so hearing the erratic chirping of insects and barking dogs in the wilderness couldn't help but send a chill down his spine, and he thought of what Zou Yueyin told him. Feeling even more flustered by those ghosts and legends, he could only stay motionless and huddle in his seat nervously.
- Boom! !
"Help me—!"
Hearing the car door being slammed by something, Zou Weiyi bounced up and hit the roof of the car in fright. He covered his head and looked around in panic. When he leaned against the window to peek out, he met a pair of almond eyes that didn't belong to him.
"...!!"
Zou Weiyi was so frightened that he lost his voice, and when the cold sweat was about to drip down his forehead, he heard a vague voice from outside,
"Your sister, am I a man-eating devil? Just looking at you makes you scream in fright, you're really good at it."
"……sister?"
Zou Weiyi almost couldn't catch his breath until Zou Yueyin shook his eyes with a flashlight. He finally regained his composure, and hurriedly opened the car door for Zou Yueyin as if seeing a savior.
"Didn't you stay in the city and take care of your parents and Uncle Mu? You, why did you come out?"
"Isn't Uncle Mu much more reliable than that brat Mu Jingchen? No one dares to touch them. Compared to them, you seem to need my care more."
"You came alone?"
"if not?"
Zou Yueyin pointed to the three-wheeled motorcycle parked not far away, "It's very fast, but it's easy to catch dust. What's the situation now? Have you caught Lin Yue?"
"I don't know, but I heard that there was no movement in the forest... Fortunately, Mu Jingchen sent a team to guard the mountain, in case Lin Yue was out of his mind and opened his mouth... You came here in a hurry Could it really be just for me?"
"certainly,"
Zou Yueyin sat in the back row with his legs crossed, but his expression was not as calm and lazy as his posture, "My friend who works in the military department reported to me that someone above was going to punish Mu Jingchen, but I didn't find out because it was confidential. I'm afraid that he will be caught off guard when he returns, so I want to remind him first."
"I guess it's the same... Sister, you don't know. When we left the city, we were stopped by the military department, no, people from the inspection committee. Guess Mu Jingchen..."
"Stop him from rescuing Yutang? You're so brave, why don't you level him off with one push of the accelerator?"
Zou Yueyin said viciously, Zou Weiyi, who was about to complain to Zou Yueyin about Mu Jingchen's reckless behavior, silently lowered his head,
"The shovel was shoveled... It's a pity that the man hid quickly, so he didn't win."
"waste."
Zou Yueyin said disdainfully. As soon as she finished speaking, she heard two whistle-like gunshots from the haystack not far away, followed by bullets, and the originally silent forest was suddenly filled with the smell of gunpowder. To ignite.
"found it?!"
Zou Weiyi exclaimed, and was about to open the door when Zou Yueyin pressed it firmly.
"Stay in the car honestly and don't cause trouble for Mu Jingchen. Aren't we going down to die?"
Before Mu Jingchen could speak, Zou Weiyi slapped the car window first,
"Does the detention order come as soon as you say it? The Mu family has been loyal and hardworking for generations, and Uncle Mu and Mu Jingchen are dedicated to suppressing bandits and chaos. How could it be the turn of the inspection committee to ask for someone?"
