Everything happened so suddenly, Lu Guangye gasped and knelt down, took a look at Rong Tan's hand, but Rong Tan immediately broke free from him, and covered the wound on Li Mu's neck again.

"I'm fine." Li Mu said with a pale face.

"Brother!" Li Wei also crawled over, cut off the corner of his robe, and grabbed Rong Tan's hand: "Young master."

Only then did Rong Tan let go of his hand, and stared blankly at Li Wei bandaging Li Mu's wound.In fact, the bite from the half-corpse wasn't too deep, but after the bandage was applied, the blood quickly soaked through the cloth and hurt his heart.He turned his head and saw Su Ling's body scattered on the ground.

For a moment, Rong Tan only felt that there was a surge of air in his chest cavity, and tears flowed out instantly.

"Are there only a few of you?" Fan Xingzhi asked with tears in his eyes, "Where are the masters?"

"I don't know, I only saw that Lu Guangye was hit by an arrow, and the old master and Zhu Yan fell off the horse... We encountered half corpses, and they came for us."

"Xianchen, you are here to watch the two of them, I will go and have a look."

After Fan Xingzhi finished speaking, he ran towards where they came from.Li Wei lay on the ground, trying to help Su Ling's body up, but he didn't dare to look at it, so he cried loudly while covering his face.

Fan Xingzhi ran back suddenly, panting and said: "They are coming, we have to hide quickly."

As he spoke, he pulled Li Wei up.Li Mu covered his neck with one hand, and pulled Rong Tan up with the other. Rong Tan just stared blankly at Su Ling's corpse, and was dragged aside by Li Mu.They hid in a hidden place, and Rong Tan saw twenty or so half-corpse riding over, and stopped not far in front of them, and one of the half-corpse got off the horse, and looked down at the ground. Su Ling, then looked around, and Rong Tan saw the eyes of the half-corpse, which seemed to be a little red in the off-white.

They didn't come out until the half-corpse had left.Rong Tan kept staring at Li Mu's neck, Li Mu glanced at him, his lips were slightly pale, and said, "I'm fine."

"But brother, you were bitten, we don't have any medicine, what can we do?" Li Wei cried.

Rong Tan's face became even uglier, Li Mu smiled and said, "Life is a matter of life and death, now is not the time to be sad for me."

Li Mu and Fan Xingzhi buried Su Ling nearby, and Rong Tan knelt on the ground dumbfounded, and said, "Someone is going to kill me."

Fan Xingzhi asked, "Who?"

Rong Tan shook his head: "I don't know, but Su Ling and the others, those people have no reason to kill them, they must be targeting me. Those half corpses obviously have a target. The beggar in the temple said that those half corpses are very Kill the common people less, and mostly attack the rich and powerful families in the city, isn't it to eradicate dissidents?"

"Is it because someone doesn't want you to come back?"

"It's a pity that the master's life and death are unknown now, otherwise he knows more about Donghe's relationship than us." Rong Tan stretched out a hand and covered his eyes: "Let's go separately, you are with me, Mrs. Danger."

"Who said they came after you?" Li Mu said, "Don't think too much about it."

"It may also be aimed at me," Fan Xingzhi said: "There are probably not a few of you in Donghe who hold grudges against our Fan family. If we want to leave, it should be the two of us who leave together. But right now we They can't be separated, I don't know what will happen to the minister, should we leave Li Wei alone?"

"Don't think about it so much," Li Mu said, "Let's not be separated. If someone really leaves, it will be after I become a walking corpse, and I will leave."

His tone was relaxed, as if he was joking, but when Rong Tan heard it, he burst into tears.Li Mu held him in his arms, Rong Tan choked up and said, "Su Ling is dead, I thought none of you would die."

When Su Ling was mentioned, several people felt very uncomfortable.Fan Xingzhi lowered his head and said with red eyes: "Su Ling's revenge, we must avenge him."

The old master and Zhu Yan were nowhere to be found, and Lu Guangye also disappeared. They searched again, but they couldn't find their bodies.On the way, I met the beggar in the temple and said, "They were captured by those half-corpses!"

The half-corpse did not kill them, but captured them, further confirming their conjecture.

These half-corpses are coming towards them, but whose command these half-corpses obey and why they want to kill them are still unknown.

After the grief eased, what Rong Tan was most worried about was Li Mu's injury.

The owner of the only pharmacy in this town heard that Li Mu was bitten by a half-corpse, so he asked them to kill Li Mu, not to mention giving them medicine.

"Anyone who is bitten by a walking corpse must die. If you don't chop off his head now, why don't you wait until he turns into a walking corpse biting people?"

Rong Tan directly thrust the dagger into the table in front of the boss.

In the end, the boss took the medicine honestly, but locked the door as soon as they went out.

Fan Xingzhi went out to investigate the situation, while Rong Tan and Li Wei stayed to take care of Li Mu.Li Mu said: "I'm fine."

"I don't have a fever." Rong Tan touched his forehead: "Do you feel anything strange? When I was bitten last time, I only felt dizzy and cold, and couldn't see clearly."

Li Mu said: "I'm fine."

Rong Tan didn't know if he was really fine, or if he was trying to comfort him by saying that he was fine.

Because he took the medicine early, Li Mu didn't have a fever.It's just that the wound on his neck is difficult to heal for a while, and he can't make too much movement.But Li Mu was quiet, and couldn't tell whether it was important or not.

Fan Xingzhi went out to investigate for a day, and came back and said: "The guards at the gate of the city are very strict. I am afraid it will be difficult for us to get in. Since someone wants our lives, they must have ambushed someone at the gate of the city. We can't act rashly. Seeing those half corpses patrolling around, I am afraid they are coming for us."

"We can't get into the city by our own strength," Li Mu said, "The Li family is a prosperous family in Donghe, but since they arrested my father, I'm afraid there will be people watching from the Li family. I thought about it." I think, since we entered Donghe, we only revealed our identities at Rong's private house. I'm afraid it was the people in that house who tipped off to the other party, so that the other party sent so many half corpses to deal with us, so the other party must be a big shot. He's officials are probably unreliable."

"What about their Fan family?" Rong asked.

Fan Xingzhi froze for a moment.

Rong Tan said: "Your Fan family also has a private house in Donghe, so the members of your Fan family should be reliable, right?"

Fan Xingzhi nodded: "I just don't know if I can enter the city."

"We can find someone to go into the city to help them deliver the news." Rong Tan looked at the big beggar next to him.

After getting the silver taels, the beggar naturally agreed, saying that he would enter the city as soon as the city gate opened the next morning.

Rong Tan was worried about Li Mu and slept next to him at night.The first half of the night was fine, but in the second half of the night, Li Mu's body felt a little hot.He was so anxious, but he didn't dare to say it, he didn't fall asleep all night, seeing that it was almost dawn, he quietly got up and went outside to pee.Suddenly, he burst into tears. He felt that what he was thinking was unlucky, so he wiped his eyes and forbade himself to think about it.

As soon as he finished urinating, he realized that someone was coming from behind him. When he turned his head, it was Li Mu.

Li Mu sat down on the steps. He walked over and said softly, "Why did you come out? It's dewy outside and it's so cold."

"I have a few words to tell you." Li Mu stretched out his hand: "Sit down."

Rong Tan reached out to hold his hand, and sat down beside Li Mu.

Li Mu let out a long breath, and said: "Actually, there is nothing important, there is still Shen Yan. Although he is a member of the Fan family, his friendship with us is true, and he will take care of you and Li Wei."

"What do you mean by that?"

Li Mu turned his head and smiled, "I said this just in case... not everyone has the luck you had last time, I'm afraid I..."

"If you become a walking corpse, I will support you even if I am like Bai Qingyu."

"You want to support me, but I don't want to be the second Meng Yuanjun." Li Mu smiled and said, "I don't want you to become the second Bai Qingyu for me. In fact, I am used to seeing life and death along the way, and I have seen through life and death long ago. If you can live, you will live, if you don't live, you will die. Although I have regrets, I also know that I should not force it."

"But I can't see through it," Rong Tan said, "You are going to die, what should I do?"

"Be the master of Donghe, or go back to the capital with Shen Yan." Li Mu said, "One life may not have an afterlife. If you can live, don't seek death. You must always remember this."

"But I never thought that you would die, I thought we would always be together in this lifetime." Rong Tan hugged Li Mu's arm: "If you don't die, I will promise you whatever you say. Don't you like me? Then I'll be with you, okay?"

Li Mu's eyes were slightly moist, and he said, "Look at you, you won't say this until I'm about to die."

As he spoke, he leaned over and kissed Rong Tan's mouth: "I'm just telling you, and I might die. If I'm safe and sound, don't forget what you said."
