I traveled through time and space and found a mute boy: That’s enough, I feel sorry for him

Mu Jinghua knew that the fact that someone like him could speak in front of the county magistrate was nothing more than borrowing Xu Shu's power to bully others.

But the book also says that "it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality". Since he had borrowed the light of Xu's book and had become a respected and feared tiger, how could he bear to be a mouse that hid in a dark corner, compromised, and was hated by everyone?

He can't go back.

I don’t want to go back either.

The prison in the government office was very dark. As soon as one entered the door, one was hit by a damp smell mixed with various foul odors. The people around Xiao Ran immediately handed him a handkerchief and treated him respectfully, like a distinguished person.

Mu Jinghua took it. Although he also covered his mouth and nose like Xiao Ran, he didn't actually feel uncomfortable. He had experienced smells that were hundreds of times worse than this, so he didn't feel uncomfortable at all.

He followed Xiao Ran to the innermost cell and saw an old woman with disheveled hair and a mad look huddled in a corner, muttering something.

Xiao Ran explained to Mu Jinghua: "This guy went crazy when he was in the building, and he has been like this ever since."

Mu Jinghua couldn't help but sneer, thinking, she was just locked up for two days, she was not sick or in any danger, how guilty must she be to scare herself crazy?

Compared to her, how could those of them who were destined to be locked up for life survive?

There is also Ye Shijing, who became crazy after his tongue was cut off. How smooth was his life that he could not bear even a little hardship?

These people deserve to die.

Mu Jinghua was standing at the door of the cell, with a half-smile on his face because he was distracted.

But somehow, that old woman Wang looked up and saw Mu Jinghua. She suddenly screamed and wailed, "It was the Mu who gave the order. He gave the order personally. Don't come to me, don't come to me. Go find Mu Tonghai, go find Mu Tonghai!"

She screamed and rushed towards Mu Jinghua, with a ferocious expression on her face and disheveled hair, looking like a ghost. She took out a golden hairpin from somewhere and poked the sharp head of the hairpin straight into Mu Jinghua's eyes.

Mu Jinghua quickly took two steps back, but his eyelids were still scratched by Wang Po and he couldn't open his eyes for a while.

Xiao Ran was also shocked, thinking that he was in trouble. If Xu Shu knew that Mu Ge'er was injured by him, given Xu Shu's protective personality, it would be bad.

The guard behind him was also a beat slow to react, and when he tried to remedy the situation he used too much force, so he drew his sword and chopped at Wang Wenxiu's outstretched hand, actually chopping off the person's arm.

Blood gushed out and splashed onto Mu Jinghua's face, blocking his already blurry vision.

In the bloody scene, Mu Jinghua saw Wang Wenxiu's limp half-broken limbs falling to the ground, like his rag doll torn by his brother, torn into pieces and unable to resist.

He suddenly smiled.

It's not just because he hates Wang Wenxiu.

It was also because he discovered that the knife was such a good object.

……

The waiter in the cloth shop was too eager. Xu Shu had clearly said that there was no need to rush delivery of Mu Jinghua's clothes, but when he came to pick them up three days later, he still saw neatly arranged new clothes.

Xu Shu is now extremely conflicted towards Mu Jinghua.

On the one hand, he was worried that Mu Jinghua would be wronged, and he thought about her all the time when he couldn't see her.

On the other hand, he was afraid that Mu Jinghua would come close to him like last time. If he lacked self-control and did something irreparable, Xu Shu would never forgive himself in his life.

Even if it was Mu Jinghua who took the initiative, Xu Shu, as a conscientious and highly educated adult, believed that any ambiguous response he made would be irresponsible towards a minor.

But he could control his own heart, but seemed unable to control his disappointing second brother.

So Xu Shu had to avoid it for a while and deal with this matter coldly.

But there was no way to see Mu Jinghua now, so Xu Shu took his clothes and finally knocked on the door of Huimin Hall.

It was Qu Xiu who opened the door. When he saw Xu Shu, his face was filled with indescribable surprise, and then a hint of panic flashed across his face.

Xu Shu's eyes were sharp, his heart sank, and he hurried inside, asking as he walked, "Did Xiao Mujin get into trouble?"

Before Qu Xiu could answer, he had already seen Mu Jinghua.

The young man was sitting on a low stool. There were various herbs on the table in front of him. He took them one by one, smelled them, and then classified them into different places. His movements were very skillful.

But the boy's eyes were covered with a layer of white gauze, and the long gauze fluttered up and down with the autumn wind, adding a bit of pale fragility to Mu Jinghua.

Hearing the voice, the young man looked over, smiled gently in the direction of Xu Shu, and said, "Xu Shu."

Xu Shu walked up to him quickly, wanting to touch him, but he didn't know where to start. He just gently touched the gauze in front of his eyes and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong with you?"

Mu Jinghua just shook his head.

Xu Shu looked at Qu Xiu who was sneaking around behind him. As soon as he glanced at him, Qu Xiu immediately explained, "Xu Shu, it wasn't us. It was Mu who followed Xiao Ran out yesterday. It's all Xiao Ran's fault. Go find Xiao Ran and settle the score."

"Xiao Ran?" Xu Shu understood and looked at Mu Jinghua, "Who did you go to see with Xiao Ran?"

Mu Jinghua didn't want to answer. He wanted to pull Xu Shu's hand, but he couldn't touch it after searching for a long time. He couldn't help but pout.

Xu Shu had already guessed Mu Jinghua's aggrieved look, but he couldn't bear it. He took the initiative to hold his hand, but still said hard: "Don't act like a spoiled child."

Mu Jinghua shook his hand and smiled gently.

"Did he take you to see Mrs. Wang?" Xu Shu had guessed without asking, "Did he see that I was not around and insisted on taking you to see her? In the end, he couldn't protect you. How are your eyes? Let me see."

After he finished speaking, he wanted to remove the white gauze on Mu Jinghua's eyes. He touched it, but then looked at Qu Xiu: "Can you take it off?"

"Oh, it's okay, you can take it off." Qu Xiu nodded quickly, "Actually, my eyelid was injured and scratched a little. I can't open my eyes. The master said that it's uncomfortable to open only one eye, so I covered both eyes."

"The master also praised Mu Ge'er for his good nose. He can distinguish the types of herbs just by smelling them. He will definitely be more successful than me in the future."

He didn't dare say that Mu Jinghua was covered in blood when he came back, he just looked at Xu Shu's expression carefully.

He still remembered his master's instructions that no one should mess with Xu Shu.

Xu Shu removed the gauze for Mu Jinghua, and only after seeing the wound on his eyelid did he feel relieved: "It's not very deep. You must be careful next time and don't get close to that crazy woman. If it's deeper, your eyeballs will be smashed. Do you want to be a dumb and blind boy again?"

"I don't want to." Mu Jinghua tried to pull Xu Shu's hand again, being very clingy.

Xu Shu had no idea what to do with him, so he tied a gauze band around his neck and rubbed his head: "What do you want to eat? I'll take you there."

After saying that, he felt something was wrong. If the two of them were alone together, what if...

So Xu Shu looked at Qu Xiu again and said, "Call your master and go together."
