Cultivate with an African God

Chapter 196 Express Delivery

Prime Minister Zuo rode away with just one glance, and the eyes of the two briefly met in the air for a moment.Mu Xinghe felt that he had been recognized, but at this moment, Prime Minister Zuo had no time to argue with him.When Zhong Zijin noticed it, he only saw the back of Prime Minister Zuo leading his troops away.

At this time, Mu Xinghe said something nonsensical: "Shen Xiu also liked white clothes very much before, but not everyone can wear that clothes so well."

Zhong Zijin's mood was visibly depressed: "When we met before, I didn't have the chance to ask him for advice——At the beginning, I said I would help you."

Mu Xinghe looked away and smiled: "Afterwards...we never saw each other again."

Seeing Zhong Zijin's dazed expression, he patted Zhong Zijin on the head.

Zhong Zijin didn't know about Shen Xiu's visit, and he didn't know that there might be more complicated reasons for what happened on the island back then.Because neither can see hope for each other, they never mention it to each other.Mu Xinghe probably knew what was going on in his heart, but he couldn't catch a trace of his opponent. Looking back now, the time when his eyes were full of hope and wanted to welcome the new students and catch up with Shen Xiu at the same time was like a dream of youth and frivolity.

The young man who is proud of the spring breeze has already separated the Wanren Mountain and the Thousand Seas, just like him and Shen Xiu.

"You still have to help me, we will see you again one day," Mu Xinghe came back to his senses, and smiled softly, with the softness that has traveled through many years flowing in his eyes, "I am bound to win this person."

He has forgotten many people and things, but Shen Xiu’s figure has never faded in his heart——Shen Xiu pointed a sword at him, Shen Xiu turned her head away from him, Shen Xiu looked at him and smiled...he wanted to save He, too, wants to destroy him, breaks all distances, and reveals all secrets.It can only be done by him, not by anyone, even if Shen Xiu is happy for herself.

Zhong Zijin stared at him in a daze, Mu Xinghe came back to his senses, his face started to have a fever, coughed dryly, turned his head, and pointed into the distance: "Let's not talk about this, the most important thing is that this dead city that slaughters each other survives, and everyone can survive." Can't die."

Mu Xinghe originally wanted to take Zhong Zijin to experience the last prosperity of the capital, but judging from the style of the left minister, he had to fight with Zhu Yishi, and Mu Xinghe didn't want to be a fish in the pond who was affected by disaster.

Mu Xinghe's prediction was correct, Zuo Xiang and Zhu Yishi really fought, and it was rumored that Zuo Xiang was under the emperor's order to arrest the rebel, how could Zhu Yishi be caught without a fight.It's just that Prime Minister Zuo didn't have soldiers and horses himself, and now he is bringing soldiers and horses. I don't know if it's the emperor's appointment or a disguise from the Palace of Bliss?

There was chaos outside, and Mu Xinghe closed the door, pretending to be a good citizen and not caring about anything.

The gambling house is not open today, so the steward can come early and wait for orders.He brought another pamphlet over, and Mu Xinghe flipped through it casually, and smiled: "Today, I don't think the statistics can be counted. The Secretary of the Imperial City and the Prime Minister Zuo have turned the entire capital upside down. I don't know how many people will die. Tomorrow the gambling house There is no need to open it, everyone go back to each house and find each mother, if there is a destiny, someone will find you after this capital change."

The steward showed some hesitation.

Mu Xinghe's tone was a bit tougher: "I am the young master. Before my father returns, my words are orders. Don't think that the gambling house is safe and sound today, and there will be no eggs under the nest. It's better to let each of you have a way out... Maybe, The emperor's holy light shines on the world, can we all be fine?"

He laughed until the end, afraid that he didn't believe what he said.

Mu Xinghe acted like a young master, so the steward had no choice but to bow his head and obey orders.

Before the steward left, Mu Xinghe gave one last order: "However, the eyes and ears outside, try to pass on all the information I am interested in, at least tonight, and don't miss a single thing."

Because of this order, Mu Xinghe was destined not to pass the night safely.

Zhong Zijin quickly realized: "There must be a lot of people coming to the house, and walking around like this will definitely attract people's attention."

"You have to work hard." Mu Xinghe leaned against Zhong Zijin, holding a map in his hand, and drew one after another on the edge of the capital.

Because of today's incident, it is difficult to hide Mu Xinghe's identity, just like when he noticed Yanyan's identity and went to the Red Sleeve Building to check, there would naturally be people who wanted to eat his piece of fat.

However, Zhong Zijin wiped the edge of the sword and raised his head slightly. I don't know whether it was the sword light or the setting sun, which made his eyes extraordinarily bright and resplendent.

"Okay, I'll wait for the sword."

The white dove flew into the room, bringing Mu Xinghe the first news.

Zuo Xiang and Zhu Yishi both suffered losses, and Zhu Yishi took the initiative to make peace.The siege and pursuit of the Jianghu people came to an end.

When the note fell on the ground, Mu Xinghe smelled an unusual smell.

The white pigeon's wing was cut off by a sword, and the bloody smell fell in front of him like fog.

Then he saw a knife.

Come quickly, reflecting the light of the sunset.

"I really can't believe a woman's words. She also said that many friends have multiple paths, so she turned around and sold me." Mu Xinghe sighed with a smile.

Mu Xinghe didn't move.

Because there is a sword in front of him.

The fine steel long sword is very simple, without any special smelting skills, it is just a sword.

But a powerful swordsman is enough to turn decay into magic.

The saber intent is a fierce and violent saber intent, with vertical and horizontal strokes, there is a heavy wind sound between the chopping and chopping, and it can be imagined that it will definitely hit the bone when it falls.

The sword moves lightly, but it never loses its vigor. Facing such a heavy and frenzied sword, it never retreats a single point.A sword produces thousands of changes, like a sea tide in a storm, one wave after another, the swordsman is full of strength, but under the pressure of this sword, he retreats step by step, and finally he leans on the sword, his face pale.

"...Here, there are such swordsmen!"

Zhong Zijin's face was calm, as if he only had the sword in front of him in his eyes.The sword light was cold, and his eyes were as silent as the sea in the dark night.

"excuse me."

The tide died down with his words.

Mu Xinghe went over to pick up a few bottles of pills that had been transformed from the attacker's body, and two gauntlets fell from the ground. Mu Xinghe tried it, and felt that his arm was very strong. He folded it casually, and the corner of the stone chair was easily pinched by him. broken.

"...provoke." Mu Xinghe felt that this was very inelegant and did not fit Daoxiu's image of a fairy, so he turned around and handed the gauntlet to Zhong Zijin.

The man died and left behind a jade pendant. Mu Xinghe held it in his palm. The jade pendant contained some aura, but after careful exploration, it didn't produce clear and perceptible changes like the gauntlet.

Mu Xinghe studied for a while, but found nothing, so he put down his hand and waved to attract a servant: "Help me light the lamp in the courtyard, I want to treat guests well tonight."

The lamps and candles in the courtyard were lit, and Mu Xinghe was lazily sitting on a chair drinking tea. The coolness of the night had descended, and the dark clouds covered the moon tonight. Occasionally, he could see the half moon floating out of the dark clouds. The shadows of the trees were dark, and the breeze rustled Ruffled, occasionally small flowers fell, and were brushed away by Mu Xinghe casually.

Zhong Zijin stood in the shadow of the tree. He was on alert and kept silent all the time, but his eyes were very bright against the candlelight, burning with fighting spirit.

There were many letters and many visitors that night.

Some cautious people even sent their own men to explore the way first, and there were corpses on the ground, full of blood.

Mu Xinghe never made a move, but Zhong Zijin didn't look tired after a long fight, the blood splashed on his face, but he didn't care to wipe it off, he just wiped off the blood on the sword with his hands.

Mu Xinghe was still looking at Zhong Zijin, but Zhong Zijin raised his head. Mu Xinghe followed his gaze, and a gray figure came over the wall and landed in front of him.But Zhong Zijin was the first to block him with his sword.

The man in gray trembled, raised his eyes to look over, and then quickly said under the threat of Jianguang: "Young master, I'm here to report! Tonight, the emperor will have a feast for all the ministers!"

"Banquet for the ministers?" Mu Xinghe picked up the wine glass on the table, didn't drink it, but tapped his fingers on the glass from time to time.

What reason do you have to entertain the ministers today?Could it be that Zhu Yishi shook hands with Prime Minister Zuo to make peace, which is really funny.If it is said to be hands-on, it is very simple and effective, so even the emperor is a real person?

While Mu Xinghe was thinking, the gray-clothed man quickly faded his fearful expression, his eyes fixed, and he rolled on the ground, unexpectedly getting out of Zhong Zijin's attack range, his figure was slightly fixed, and Mu Xinghe saw only a few flashes of light And passed, with a sharp wind.

——It’s a hidden weapon!

With several hidden weapons, no matter how fast Zhong Zijin's sword is, it cannot cover such a large area!

The wind has arrived!

"Bang——" the wine glass in Mu Xinghe's hand shattered, splitting a piece of wine fragrance.

The dart fell.Inserted into the stone chair behind Mu Xinghe, if it falls on the flesh and blood, it may be piercing.

Mu Xinghe raised his hand, and inserted the cracked ceramic piece in front of the man in gray. The man in gray could see a gray complexion at night: "Impossible!"

"Is there anything impossible?" Mu Xinghe casually patted his wine-stained clothes, "If I regain my full strength, I don't even need this glass of wine to cushion it."

The man in gray had no chance to be shocked again, seeing that Mu Xinghe had nothing to ask, Zhong Zijin cut him off with his sword.

Zhong Zijin picked up the medicine, but he didn't take half of it this time, but handed it all to Mu Xinghe.

"You're probably going to protect me tonight. Don't you need to become stronger?" Actually Zhong Zijin is his friend, and there has never been unnecessary politeness or evasion between them. Usually, these medicines are divided into half, and they drop strange magic weapons It is whoever gives it to whom.

Zhong Zijin frowned, and seemed a little hesitant when he heard the words: "...I have a bad feeling, it seems to be better for you."

Mu Xinghe didn't say anything, just as Zhong Zijin believed in all his judgments, he also believed in all Zhong Zijin's intuition.At this time, Mu Xinghe always felt that something was wrong. There were nine waves of people here tonight, and the number was already quite a lot, but they were all cold weapon users. At most, they would use some magical means to enhance their body skills, strength, and defense. That's all, Mu Xinghe knew the extent of his strength recovery, and he didn't believe that other spell users would find swords and hidden weapons easier than the spells he had learned all his life.

Mu Xinghe leaned on the stone chair and looked at the sky.

——There must be some clue, which was ignored by me before.

When the third important news came, Zhong Zijin was not by his side, Mu Xinghe crushed the wax pellets, and the note was smashed into the fire.

The night is dark.

The palace banquet didn't last long, an assassination broke the forced peace, the emperor's sister, Princess Jiale, performed music with the court musicians, the musicians succeeded in the assassination under the full vigilance of Zhu Yishi and Zuo Xiang, and Get out of the way.The regent was furious and ordered a thorough investigation, and the palace gate was closed tightly.Two living people were stabbed but no corpses were left, and the officials panicked.

But Mu Xinghe's focus was not on these two people. Although Zuo Xiang and Zhu Yishi were both hurt, they had just reached a certain balance, and they must have spoils of war, so they were assassinated at this moment.

Then, the only court forces that Mu Xinghe heard at first were the regent and the emperor.It's just that the emperor has many doubts. The regent has no deeds left, but he has survived until now. It is not a simple person who is really one person under ten thousand.

And with the infiltration of poisonous gas, people will find a way to enter the imperial city after all. The imperial city is not as chaotic as the forces in Beijing. Can he enter this controlled area?

When Mu Xinghe heard crickets chirping at night, he was hoarse.

He noticed the strange fluctuations in the air and subconsciously stood up.

However it was too late.

A few bamboo slips fell from the sky, penetrated deep into the ground, filled with energies, and locked all the areas where he could act!

The coming is menacing, and it is bound to win!

Mu Xinghe looked at where the sword energy came from, and several figures came over the wall and surrounded him.

The bamboo slips on the ground exploded, but turned into golden ropes, binding Mu Xinghe's body, making him unable to move.

But Mu Xinghe smiled, the young master had a handsome face, but there was an inexplicable evil in his smile: "I haven't seen a spell for a long time, and... I haven't done it for a long time, it's really happy to think about it. "

Those surrounding him took a step back.The leader was a scholar in green clothes with a bookcase on his back, and he was not deterred by his words: "Your Excellency, everyone thinks that only the young master is the real opponent, but they don't think that the swordsmen beside the young master are also living people, and they are still A peerless expert... came here for nothing and sent many deaths. It's a pity that since he is so powerful, the resources you get must be scarce!"

Mu Xinghe's hands were bound, and the rope was still growing.

Mu Xinghe smiled slightly: "You are indeed smarter, know how to unite, and also know how to sneak attack me when he is not around."

"Why bother to bluff and delay the time?" The scholar sneered, "He can't come. It's true that the combination of two people is stronger than fighting alone, but an alliance formed in a life-and-death battle will not be stable. He will form an alliance with you, and it is inevitable You can also form alliances with others because of conditions.”

"You're right," Mu Xinghe nodded, agreeing very much, and he raised his chin towards the other people, "Hey, you, do you want to hang out with me, I don't have much use for my little magic tools Woolen cloth"

The leader shouted coldly: "Don't play tricks! Whatever magical artifacts and medicines you die are ours!"

As if the rope was alive, the more it bound Mu Xinghe, the tighter it was. At the same time, following the man's order, countless different vigor and hidden weapons of swords struck him together!

But in the blink of an eye, the blade and energy were already in front of him!

Mu Xinghe didn't move, his expression was very calm, even a bit leisurely like watching a play, it seemed that his inaction was not because he was restrained by others, but because he was too lazy to move.

At that moment, the ground lit up.

The ground of the whole courtyard was dyed with twilight, and it was constantly twisting. The ground was full of light, but it seemed to have become a swamp. People were deeply trapped in it and kept falling. It seems to be distorted and dissipated following this weird change!

This person... is using magic? !

Not only is it a technique, it is such a weird technique!

The ground seems to be melting, and it is occupied by bit by bit starlight. The tiny stars turn the ground into a night sky. The stars are constantly rotating, making people dazzled. Disintegrate their true energy bit by bit.

The feeling of desperation seemed as if the swamp had swallowed them.

"How can someone use such a technique?!"

Mu Xinghe watched the shackles on his body loosen and fell to the ground together, and watched the people struggling in the swamp of stars, and smiled calmly: "This is not a magic technique."

This is the magic circle.

Mu Xinghe's current ability is not enough to use spells in the trap, let alone such complicated spells as Xing Siying.

But since this is his territory, how could he not pre-arrange it here?

Mu Xinghe never liked having no hole cards.

That day when he went out with Zhong Zijin, he bought a bunch of playthings. Perhaps everyone who saw him thought he was squandering around like a young master, but only he understood that what he was looking for was not treasures, but those treasures that contained The cinnabar, jade chips, gold and stone.

He took out the materials he could use, pretended to be gardening, drew a magic circle, and connected his true energy. From then on, this yard was his magic domain.

After the star-like firefly array is transformed, the area of ​​the array will be turned into a swamp of stars. Once the attacker triggers it, there will be no way out!

He has been waiting for this day for a long time!

However, when he was on the brink of death, a man dressed as a government official struggled to get out, pointing at Mu Xinghe with one hand, with desperate determination on his face, his lips trembling, and shouted: "You are Mu Xinghe?!"

At this time, Mu Xinghe had the upper hand, and he should have been leisurely watching how the opponent struggled, but when the man said those words, Mu Xinghe felt something was wrong, as if his defenses were cracking inch by inch——

That feeling was so dangerous that Mu Xinghe didn't speak immediately.

Suddenly, the man broke free, with a flash of flames in his hand, he slashed towards Mu Xinghe with thunder!

Thunderbolt!

Mu Xinghe instantly recognized the name of this spell, and the opponent used the spell without hindrance, even stronger than him, Mu Xinghe even felt that it could split his true spirit!

However, the thunder disappeared in an instant, not only because of the restraint of the magic circle, but also the sword that came by the wind.

The swordsman's clothes were stained with blood, his eyes were filled with cold killing intent, but when he looked at Mu Xinghe, the killing intent disappeared immediately: "...Sorry, I'm late."

Mu Xinghe watched the figures of those people slowly disintegrate and disappeared, with a smile on his lips: "You say that the alliance is unreliable, so he will definitely not come, but unfortunately, even if I don't believe in myself, I believe in him."

He withdrew his true energy, the magic circle disappeared without a trace, and the ground returned to its original appearance. He squatted down to check the spoils, and said to Zhong Zijin, "I told you to avoid catching a big fish. I didn't expect that." Someone really stopped you."

There are quite a lot of people coveting his place, after being killed by Zhong Zijin, people have to weigh it if they want to sneak in and attack, but Mu Xinghe is not satisfied with the current results, so he had to force Zhong Zijin to relieve him.

Mu Xinghe's guess was right, the big fish had indeed come, and he dropped a lot of medicine, which made Mu Xinghe feel happy when he saw it.

He checked the items that appeared after those people died. Everyone would turn into medicine, but some people would drop some magic tools. Those magic tools were not too powerful, and most of them had weird functions, such as sudden infinite power, For example, the hidden weapons are always accurate, such as the ropes attached to them, but for them who have lost their magic weapons and talismans, these things are already very good.

However, Mu Xinghe picked up the jade pendant again, he threw it up and put it down again, he felt that he had overlooked some important clue, and the key was precisely in the jade pendant.

Mu Xinghe stayed up all night and felt a little tired, so he sat down again.This group of people came in but never came out, no one would dare to come again, if anyone else entered, they must have extraordinary abilities and have something to rely on.

While thinking about the current situation, Mu Xinghe played with the jade pendant to find out the connection, while Zhong Zijin was still standing quietly with his sword in his arms.

Suddenly the servant rushed over panting, and tonight Mu Xinghe went on a killing spree, sometimes he would call the servant to deal with him when he was upset seeing the corpse.Originally, the boy would not come to this place again if nothing happened tonight, but at this time he sent a message: "Young master, there are two people outside the door, saying they want to find you!"

Mu Xinghe sensed their identities almost as soon as he saw them.

They were a pair of very good-looking man and woman. The man was strong and strong, with drums around his waist. His face was rough but not vulgar. With a very close and sincere demeanor, the woman stood behind the man, showing only half of her delicate face, dressed in light gauze, with a slender waist, but timidly, she did not dare to show her face.

That is the court musician who assassinated two important figures at the palace banquet not long ago and the eldest princess who performed the dance.

Not to mention Zhong Zijin, even Mu Xinghe had to be very wary when he saw these two people.

However, the musician smiled and raised a hand, which was a soothing gesture.

"Young Master, you don't have to be so defensive. I will definitely not fight with you at your place." The musician smiled in his eyes and said in a low voice, "It is rumored that the young master relies on the swordsmen around him, but just now there were two waves of people attacking him separately. , but no one can escape successfully, this is not something a master swordsman can do, your mansion should have many magic circles, forming many traps, so that the birds cannot escape, I will not be overwhelmed here against you everywhere."

Having said that, Mu Xinghe is even more unwilling to relax his vigilance.

The musician didn't care, and continued: "—Actually, I came to form an alliance with you."

"Alliance? Cooperation?" Mu Xinghe raised his eyebrows and smiled slightly, "Just now that group of people said that the alliance cannot last long, because there will only be one person left in the dead city."

The musician raised his head, his outline was firm, his eyes were shining brightly, staring at Mu Xinghe firmly: "I only choose to ally with you, because you are different."

Mu Xinghe waited silently for him to continue.

"You have an unruly temperament, you act according to your heart, and you plan every step of the way. Like tonight, you are deliberately waiting to reveal your identity, attracting the enemy to the place where you have the most advantage, and quickly expanding your strength. Such a person is not suitable for anyone in such an environment. Cooperate, because anyone may destroy your plan, and anyone may turn against you. Compared with worrying about the people around you, you are more willing to be alone. Cooperating with this sword repairer is not only because he is a master, but also for another reason. It is the person you want to protect, you can, and you will definitely fight with him in the dead city regardless of the gains and losses." The musician stepped aside slightly, revealing the figure of the woman behind him, "I seek cooperation because you and I Same. She is my Taoist companion, I don't want to die, and I don't want her to die either."

Mu Xinghe's heart skipped a beat and he looked at the musician.

The musician also looked at him with a very sincere expression, even with a hint of expectation, he said in a deep voice, "We don't have to die—young master, why don't we overthrow this chessboard together."

Indeed, ever since Mu Xinghe met Zhong Zijin, he never really wanted to follow the rules of the dead city.

With Zhong Zijin around, it would be impossible for him to kill himself in the end.

However, Mu Xinghe shook his head, his voice was very soft, and the meaning in it was unshakable by anyone: "I will not ally with anyone, and stay with him, just because he is different. We are never one who protects the other Relationship, he is my only brother, we have agreed to kill together, and die together. As for others, no matter good or bad, I will not have any contact with others. "

Mu Xinghe always had a smile on his face, but at this moment, his eyes were surprisingly indifferent.

The musician paused, as if he didn't expect such an answer.After a while, he returned a gentle smile, bowed his head and said: "I was the one who was abrupt, then, see you again."

Mu Xinghe waved them off lazily. In the night wind, he heard the woman's whisper: "The spell just now, did you see who he is?"

"I understand," the musician's voice became farther and farther away, "I even... know who the swordsman is. But not everyone has the determination to overturn the chessboard. Unless there is no way out, I don't want to fight with him."

Their voices were finally lost in the night, Mu Xinghe turned his head, Zhong Zijin's eyes were cut off by the projection of eyelashes, and Mu Xinghe patted him on the shoulder: "I'm sorry, I made my own opinions, I missed it." Great opportunity."

Zhong Zijin smiled. He had a great time killing tonight, and his smile was full of fighting spirit: "If you want to kill, kill together, if you want to die together, there is nothing wrong with it. Isn't it just overturning the chessboard? Can't we do it?"

Mu Xinghe let out a rare sigh.He walked into the courtyard, recalling the musician's last words, his footsteps suddenly stopped.

"I seem to understand..." Mu Xinghe raised his head suddenly, he looked at Zhong Zijin, his eyes were as bright as stars in a clear night, "The secret of name and jade pendant!"

Mu Xinghe stood among the fallen flowers in the courtyard, stepping on the dead body, but he couldn't hide his high spirits: "Just now, when someone called out my real name, I seemed to have been peeped through. The empty door was wide open. If you don't come, I should be easily defeated by him. But why is that? When I met you and called out your name, there was no abnormality. So I got the jade pendant from that person. Now I remember , the effect of this jade pendant should be the effect of beheading others after revealing the real name, which explains why the former dove bird and the current princess care about our name, and also why the spell is so easy to use but rarely used. Seeing that someone uses it, for famous cultivators, spells are too iconic, and they are afraid of being exposed."

The joy of clearing doubts filled almost every part of his body, and he spoke very fast and his voice was lighter than usual.

"I don't know much about spells." Zhong Zijin frowned, thought for a moment, and said, "But the spells contained on this jade pendant are different from common spells."

"Yes, its principle is not the common way of transformation of all things, but the way of cause and effect. Name is a person's identity mark. This jade pendant uses the name to establish contact with others, and even connect lives. There are some causes and effects. Lu Zi. And the letter I received before said that I came here for the purpose of 'clearing cause and effect', so this place must be related to cause and effect, and the people who came here also came to clear the same cause and effect! So we all came here because of the same thing , with a high probability, we will know each other!"

Ordinary people can think of the connection between jade pendant and name, but they may not think that it also implies the cause behind the dead city.Mu Xinghe thought of it, one step earlier than others.Zhong Zijin understood what he said, and said doubtfully, "But we have also experienced many things."

"Yes," Mu Xinghe smiled against the night breeze, "it's true that there are many, so I can't say for sure, but I think I'm very close to the truth. Tomorrow, just tomorrow, in our most powerful It's time to kill everyone you can find, and then enter the palace—!"
