This collapsed arena!

The two walked through the forest that was ambushed yesterday. There were still some traces dug out by the earth escape technique on the wet soil, coiled on the ground like giant snakes.As for Lin Jian, where the two stood yesterday, the trunk of the tree was densely covered with silver needles, like a layer of long silver hair, which made people shudder.

"Three thousand, 760 and two needles..." Chu Xiaoye murmured.

"What?" Mu Yuntian heard it clearly, but couldn't believe it.

"This tree has the most silver needles, and three thousand seven hundred and sixty-two needles have been inserted. These people are really killers." Chu Xiaoye frowned.

"How do you know?" Mu Yuntian was even more surprised.

"Hmm... I don't know either. It seems that as long as I see a lot of things piled up together, I can tell the number at a glance."

That's right, Chu Xiaoye is someone who is extremely sensitive to numbers, he can count a pile of soybeans on the ground with a glance.As long as it is related to numbers, he can hardly forget it, so he determined to be a securities analyst in his previous life.

But that was already a matter of the previous life.

Chu Xiaoye felt a little emotional, it was only two months since she came here, but the things in her previous life seemed to have happened a long time ago.

"It turns out that Ye'er has such supernatural powers. It's really interesting." Mu Yuntian was obviously happier, and he didn't know why.

Chu Xiaoye responded lightly, and drove the horse forward. The horse carefully avoided the corpses on the ground, walking fast and steadily.

When the two walked out of the ring, Chu Xiaoye suddenly reined in the horse.

"It's not right." Chu Xiaoye said and turned the horse's head, wanting to go back and confirm.

"What's wrong?" Mu Yuntian raised his eyebrows.

"Here," Chu Xiaoye pointed to a grass field. There were some blood stains on the ground, and the grass was also crushed. "There should be someone here, why did he disappear?"

"How many corpses are left here?" Mu Yuntian frowned and asked.

"35," Chu Xiaoye replied after glancing at them, "when I woke up last night, there were seven men in black who were still alive, and there should be 36 who fell. But last night, the forest was too dark, so I don't know what happened to them." It's not that I was wrong."

"No," Mu Yuntian shook his head, "Last night, there were 36 people. For the highest-level assassination order in Jinxiu Pavilion, 36 people were dispatched at one time."

"Then where did the other person go?" Chu Xiaoye believed Mu Yuntian's words, "There must be someone lying here last night."

"A fish that slipped through the net." Mu Yuntian replied, "We ran some distance last night before stopping, and my spiritual power was exhausted, and my hearing has also declined a lot. It is very likely that the person is not dead. and ran away."

Chu Xiaoye nodded, she didn't know how far that person had run away at this time, it was really difficult to find him, and there was only one assassin left, and it was impossible to come back alone to assassinate two people.

The two didn't care too much, Chu Xiaoye drove the horse and continued to walk on the main road.

"Tell me, why did these men in black know we were here last night? They set up an ambush?" Chu Xiaoye was puzzled, "Besides, if we hadn't seen those snakes last night, we would have been blown to death in the temple. , why did they go to such lengths to ambush us?"

"Because these two groups of people were not sent by the same person," Mu Yuntian analyzed, "the gunpowder in the temple should be the gunpowder of the Black Fire Hall in Youcheng. Gunpowder. And these assassins are members of the largest assassin organization in Shia, Jinxiu Pavilion."

"Splendid Pavilion?" Chu Xiaoye asked inexplicably, "How could an assassination organization have such a sissy name?"

"Bitch?" Mu Yuntian couldn't understand.

"Uh...that is to say, um, is their boss a woman? Why does this name look like a girl's family?" Chu Xiaoye said casually.

"Hmph," Mu Yuntian snorted coldly, "The owner of the Jinxiu Pavilion is neither a woman nor a man."

"Ah?" Chu Xiaoye was taken aback, "Could it be a hermaphrodite?"

Is there such an unknown species in this world? !

"Hersexual?" Mu Yuntian thought about it carefully, and then he understood, and said: "The master of Jinxiu Pavilion, according to legend, was an eunuch who escaped from the palace of Xiya Kingdom 20 years ago. Master Mu Duan created this Jinxiu Pavilion. It specializes in doing some secret business, killing people to silence people, as long as they can afford the money, Jinxiu Pavilion will kill everyone, regardless of righteousness or evil."

Chu Xiaoye's face was full of embarrassment, without Tintin's peerless master, he instantly thought of someone.

"Is he called Dongfang Bubai?" Chu Xiaoye said helplessly.

"Dongfang Bubai? How did you come up with such a strange name?" Mu Yuntian realized that he didn't understand what was going on in the kid's mind, but he still replied seriously, "Splendid Pavilion is said to be built in Xiya. The most western part of the country, but not many people in Jianghu know where it is, and no one knows the name of the owner of the Jinxiu Pavilion. The name is Western Seeking Defeat."

Chu Xiaoye: "..."

Master, you really have a personality.

Why not just call Dugu Qiubai.

Throwing away his mind full of irrelevant thoughts, Chu Xiaoye asked solemnly: "If the person who encountered this situation last night... is my brother, can he beat him?"

Before Mu Yuntian could reply, Chu Xiaoye murmured again: "Brother's bones have not been found so far, could it be...he was given by Heihuotang..." It was blown up to ashes.Chu Xiaoye really didn't want to say the second half of the sentence.

Mu Yuntian gently lay on Chu Xiaoye's back, reached out and rubbed the soft hair that was not tied up, and said: "It's unlikely to be Heihuotang, according to the movement last night, even in the wilderness. Some hunters in the mountains will feel it and will report it to the government, but the government has not received any such news recently."

Chu Xiaoye nodded, relieved, and asked again: "What about the Jinxiu Pavilion?"

Mu Yuntian sighed and said: "The most advanced assassination order of the Jinxiu Pavilion, if it is really encountered in the first day, it is impossible to escape. However, the ground escape technique of the Jinxiu Pavilion is most suitable for use in the mountains and fields. If it is in an open place, Without trees for cover, it should be easy to spot."

So it's still hard to say... Chu Xiaoye sighed.

"We only came out for a day, but we encountered two groups of people ambushing us. It seems that someone is indeed going to target the Chu family." Chu Xiaoye frowned. If the court officials wanted to get rid of Chu Zhou, it must be because they had no idea about themselves. Yes, and at this moment, it was obvious that the other party wanted to kill him even more.

"Who the hell is it that insists on killing the Chu family?" Chu Xiaoye was puzzled.

"Don't worry," Mu Yuntian comforted, "It's a fox, so it will show its feet naturally."

Chu Xiaoye turned her head, eyes full of puzzlement and said, "If it's a fox, why did it show the horse's feet?"

Mu Yuntian: "Puchi..." The injured shoulder hurt a little from laughing.

Chu Xiaoye turned her head angrily and concentrated on driving the horse.

Indeed, although he is very talented in numbers, he doesn't know anything about characters. When he was in school in his previous life, he had always been very partial to subjects... After studying Chinese for so many years, he still doesn't even know "的", "地" and "得". Usage is unclear.

Being interrupted by Chu Xiaoye, the heavy atmosphere dissipated a bit.

The two gradually found a way, and walking down this road was Wangshui County, where they planned to rest the next day.There is a Zou family bank in Wangshui County, which is the property of Xinghen Palace, and the two planned to live there for Mu Yuntian to recuperate.

"How did you and brother meet?" There was no one on the road, and the two of them were bored in silence, so Chu Xiaoye wanted to find out more about his predecessor, the second junior.

"Speaking of which, it turned out to be 17 years ago. There is a Fengshi City to the north of Wangcheng, and Chu Zhou and I saw it there." Mu Yuntian began to recall.

"Why did my brother go there?" Shouldn't the youngest of the Chu family have grown up in Wangcheng since he was a child?

"When Churi was three years old, he worshiped the owner of Fengshen Villa in Fengshi City as his teacher. The old owner, Feng Shengyu, was also a well-known saber master. At that time, he would only return to the National Teacher's Mansion once every few years." Mu Yuntian narrowed his eyes slightly and looked into the distance, and seemed to miss that time very much.

"What about you?" Chu Xiaoye tilted her head and asked.

"I am different from Chuju. My master likes to travel, so I have been running around with him since I was a child. 17 years ago, when I was only six years old, I followed my master to visit Fengshen Mountain Villa, and I met Chuju. At that time, he was only five years old. I was young, but his sword skills are already very beautiful, so I became sworn brothers with him." Mu Yuntian sighed softly, the young child who used to wield a sword alone under the ancient pine tree in Fengshen Villa, but now... …

"Hmm... Mom and Dad said that my brother has been practicing martial arts very hard since he was a child." Chu Xiaoye felt the depressed mood of the person behind him, and changed the subject: "I heard from the people in Xingshen Palace that you didn't like to practice martial arts when you were young?"

"I heard? Who did you hear it from?" Going back to Starscar Palace, tell them to go clean the hut.

"Uh... I can't say that," Chu Xiaoye turned her head away from him with some guilt, "Anyway, some people say that when you were young, you were chased by your master every day, and you always refused to practice hard."

"Hmph," Palace Master Mu raised his eyebrows, and decided to sew the mouths of those hidden guards shut when he went back, "That's because I was born with extraordinary talents, and I always felt that if I cultivated too fast, I would have no friends to make. Until six When I was [-] years old, after I met Chu Zhou, I discovered that there were people of my age who could cultivate the power of spirit so quickly, and then I also submerged myself in learning martial arts."

Chu Xiaoye nodded, the 17-year brotherhood is probably much deeper than the brotherhood she has had in the past few months.

Even if he is so sad, let alone the person behind him.

At this time, all they can do is to find out the real culprit and avenge their brother.

"But since you have been sworn brothers for 17 years, why do you still call you brother by name and surname?" Chu Xiaoye muttered to herself, shouldn't it be called Xiao Zhou, Day Day, Ah Day and other nicknames? .

"Oh, after we became sworn brothers, I kept calling him Ah Zhou, but who would have thought that he would chase me and hit me every time he heard it." Mu Yuntian laughed, recalling the things when he was young, and he felt a little funny in his heart, "Later I just found out that in the local dialect of Fengshi City, Ah Zhou and Stupid Donkey mean the same thing, no wonder he was so angry that he ran after me when he heard it."

Chu Xiaoye also burst out laughing, the seemingly heroic and mighty general had such a naive childhood.

"How long did my brother stay in Fengshi City before returning to Wangcheng?" Chu Xiaoye asked.

At this time, the clearer the matter of Chu Zhou is, the more likely it is to find clues.The previous two groups of people came from the Xiya country, so could the people behind the scenes be from the Xiia country?

However, it sounds like Churi and Xi Yaguo have no intersection other than the Xingshen Palace.

"About 15 years old. After studying at Fengshen Villa for ten years, Chu Zhou has learned Feng Shengyu's sword skills thoroughly. As long as he cultivates the power of the soul to a few more levels, even Feng Shengyu may be able to defeat him." But him." Mu Yuntian shook his head, a little regretful, it is obviously useless to say these things at this time.

Chu Xiaoye thought for a while, and then asked, "Then... when did you see me?"

In fact, this question has nothing to do with Chu Zhou, but Chu Xiaoye wanted to ask out of selfishness.

"Six years ago," Mu Yuntian recalled, "At that time, Chu Zhou had just returned to Wangcheng, and I happened to come over to deal with the affairs of Xingshen Palace, so I went to see him at the National Teacher's Mansion. At that time, he loved you very much. I asked him why, and he said that he has not been by your side for more than ten years, and you have suffered a lot, so after returning to Wangcheng, he took you by his side every day."

Chu Xiaoye was distressed, even if she was taken by such a man with a dragon and phoenix root, Zheng Miaohong's elder brother, why did the second grader still look crooked.

"Heh," Mu Yuntian seemed to have thought of something interesting, and couldn't help smiling, "When you were 14 years old, you secretly ran to brothels by yourself, or was it me and Chu Zhou's family who searched all over the brothels in Wangcheng? I just found you. When Churi pulled you out of the oiran's room, you still yelled: "Let go of me, I want to be a man like my brother, I don't want to be a child anymore." "

After saying that, he smiled and shook his head, and then said: "But since then, you never dared to go to the brothel again. It is said that you were taught a little harshly by the old master."

Chu Xiaoye was a little embarrassed, it turned out that the second grader had such a dark history.

Seeing that his ears were red, Mu Yuntian thought he was a bit embarrassed to be mentioned about the past, and said: "But I didn't pay attention to you at that time, and I don't remember many things."

There was some regret in Mu Yuntian's tone, as if he regretted that he had missed so many interesting things during his childhood.

Chu Xiaoye was inexplicably happy, and even she couldn't explain why.

The author has something to say:

There are a lot of mysteries at present, and it is very likely that you are a little confused, but I will explain it bit by bit in the future.

This article will not be very short, so I have buried a lot of threads before and after. If there is anything wrong, please correct me.

It is really not wise to challenge such a long story when writing an article for the first time, but I have also conceived this story for a long time, I hope someone will like it.
