The coroner and the concubine doctor pursue the murderer in the Dali Temple
Chapter 52 Meeting the Enemy
The man glanced down indifferently, waved his hand to have the two men in black come over and carry him away, and then he sat down again.
Yue Haoran, if it weren't for your identity, no matter who comes to beg for mercy, don't try to disrupt my plan!
The man secretly complained resentfully. On the surface, he went to save Yue Haoran because He Xi pleaded for him. But in reality, only he knew that he had to save Yue Haoran. But in this way, he could leave a good impression in the eyes of his disciples.
After thinking for a while, the man called others over, said something in a low voice, and then someone used light Kung Fu to leave.

Chu Yunxi slept until dawn and woke up. She slept very peacefully that night and didn't have any dreams. When she woke up, she found that the carriage was not running but parked, and Xiao Mubei was not in the carriage.
She leaned her head out of the carriage, the early morning sun made her squint slightly, she saw that they were resting by a river at the moment, the soldiers were building fires in groups of three or four, and they were already roasting fish on them, while Xiao Mubei and more than a dozen people, with their trouser legs rolled up and their sleeves rolled up, were catching fish in the water.
The fragrance wafted over, arousing Chu Yunxi's appetite. She jumped off the carriage and went to the river to wash her face. When she looked up, she saw Xiao Mubei catching a fish.
Xiao Mubei turned around, raised the fish in his hand towards her, and a bright smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Chu Yunxi felt her eyes brighten.
Xiao Mubei was good-looking to begin with, and with the solemn aura he brought back from the battlefield, he looked rather cold. Chu Yunxi had never seen him smile so brightly with a hint of childishness, and he seemed to have become more sunny.
In a blink of an eye, the sunny boy had walked out of the river to her, shook the fish in his hand, and said, "Let's go eat grilled fish."
Chu Yunxi came back to her senses and hurriedly followed Xiao Mubei, saying with a smile: "Can the dignified prince also grill fish?"
"These are the most basic survival skills when marching outside." Xiao Mubei quickly prepared the fish, skewered it on branches and grilled it over the fire. "You are lucky to eat fish grilled by King Dingbei himself."
"Yes, yes, it's my honor." Chu Yunxi sat by the fire, staring at the fish on the fire. The fragrance gradually spread, making her swallow her saliva continuously.
Seeing her greedy look, Xiao Mubei felt very happy. He relaxed a lot after suppressing his mood all night. He took out an oil paper bag from his arms and threw it to Chu Yunxi, "Take it as a snack first."
"What?" Chu Yunxi opened it in confusion, her eyes lit up, "Walnut crisps?"
"Well," Xiao Mubei turned the grilled fish over, "I saw that you liked it when we were in the capital, so I brought some with me when I left. I forgot to give it to you before."
Chu Yunxi picked up a whole piece and put it in her mouth, puffing her mouth up, and said incoherently: "Thank you, Your Majesty, you are so thoughtful."
Xiao Mubei smiled slightly and wanted to say something, but his face suddenly changed. He stood up suddenly and shouted, "Be on guard!"
All the soldiers immediately dropped the food in their hands, took out their weapons, stood back to back in pairs, and looked around vigilantly.
Chu Yunxi also stood up immediately, carefully wrapped the walnut cake and stuffed it into her arms, clapped her hands and mouth, then took out her needle crossbow and stood next to Xiao Mubei.
Xiao Mubei whispered, "Follow me later."
Chu Yunxi nodded and said, "Are they here?"
"It should be. There are at least five masters of the same level as Yue Haoran coming here."
Yue Haoran's kung fu is not bad, otherwise he would not have become King Jingyuan's right-hand man. Chu Yunxi has actually never seen Xiao Mubei show his true strength, but he doesn't seem to be worried at all, and can spot the enemy from a distance, which shows that his strength must be above these people.
But five... should not be underestimated.
Chu Yunxi looked at the soldiers with some worry. In order to confuse the enemy, they had brought the smallest team of soldiers, only a hundred people. The fighting power of these one hundred people might not be as strong as that of five martial arts masters.
In the blink of an eye, five men in black appeared in everyone's sight. They were extremely fast. With a touch of their toes on the tree branches, they flew several feet away and rushed straight towards the carriage in the crowd.
Xiao Mubei's eyes narrowed, and a long whip appeared in his hand. He whipped them to block the way of the men in black. Several men in black paused, turned over and got out of the encirclement of the soldiers, and stood on the trees.
"The King of Dingbei is indeed worthy of his reputation. We don't want to be your enemy today. As long as you hand over Yue Haoran, we will leave immediately and will not embarrass you."
A man in black spoke loudly. All these people had their faces and heads covered with black scarves, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed. However, Chu Yunxi could see that each of these people had a gleam in their eyes and their temples bulged high. They were obviously masters of internal martial arts.
These people have such high skills in martial arts, yet they all obey orders from others. One can imagine how powerful the people above them are.
Xiao Mubei has made up his mind that after he returns, he will send people to investigate when such a mysterious organization appeared near the capital.
"Yue Haoran is a prisoner of my Dali Temple. If I hand him over to you, how will the Dali Temple handle cases in the future?"
Xiao Mubei put away the whip in his hand and said calmly, "If you want someone, just come and rob him with your ability."
"Your Highness," the man in black who had spoken earlier sighed, "Since you are so ungrateful, we have no choice but to offend you."
As soon as the words fell, the five people flew up at the same time tacitly, two of them pounced towards Xiao Mubei, and the remaining three went towards the carriage again.
"Form a line!" Someone among the soldiers shouted, and the one hundred soldiers were immediately divided into three groups, with more than thirty people in each group. The first three people went forward to meet the enemy, but they were no match for the opponent, and they retreated immediately after only three moves. Then another three people came up to meet the enemy, and similarly, they retreated after only three moves.
As the two men pounced on him, Xiao Mubei grabbed Chu Yunxi and spun half a circle to avoid the other party's fierce palm wind.
"The King of Dingbei is truly a romantic and affectionate young man. He still remembers to be a hero and save the beauty at this time. It is really touching."
The man in black continued to attack with his palms and kept talking, teasing at the same time. Unfortunately, Xiao Mubei and Chu Yunxi turned a deaf ear to him.
Xiao Mubei was still using the whip. An inch longer, an inch stronger it was. He swung the whip with great force, and for a moment the two men in black could not get close to him.
On the other hand, the other three were completely unable to display their skills due to the rotation of the soldiers, because no one was willing to fight them head-on. The soldiers' changes were dizzying, and even though the three had strong internal strength, they could not form their own rhythm. As soon as the palm wind came out, the soldiers would retreat. After a long time, everyone's internal strength was exhausted and they were unable to do it.
