South Xinjiang

Shen Mo washed his hands with clean water, inserted a stick of incense and lit it, waved his hem, and sat cross-legged with a solemn expression.

When Su Yunshu heard the movement, she was very curious, and secretly opened the door a little. In order not to disturb Shen Mo, she breathed lightly on purpose.He had never seen the scene of Shen Mo's divination, and he only found it extremely pleasing to the eye.Shen Mo's face was originally deep, but now he put on such a solemn and serious expression, he just felt imposing, sacred and cold, as if he was a god who descended from the sky to the mortal world, aloof and above all things.Su Yunshu almost wanted to kneel down and kowtow to him.He felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. Although Shen Mo, who looked like the Witch Emperor, was so convincing, and could even make the most ordinary black clothes look like a luxurious one, he was so unattainable, unattainable, and far inferior to him. On weekdays, Brother Shen seemed friendly. Although he always had a straight face, he could feel his kindness and good temper.

Shen Mo opened the small wooden box, placed it on the ground in front of him, closed his eyes and chanted a mantra softly, not knowing how Su Yunshu arranged him in his heart.

Su Yunshu couldn't understand Shen Mo's mantra, which was somewhat similar to Nanjiang dialect, but it seemed different.

After chanting the mantra, Shen Mo suddenly opened his eyes, the light-colored eyes with blue light looked compassionate and calm.He took out the female scorpion with both hands, and the female scorpion lay obediently in his palm, motionless.Shen Mo burned a hole in the female scorpion's head with the incense that was just lit. Suddenly, the female scorpion's back began to crack along with the hole, forming a series of beautiful patterns.

The incense is extinguished, the scorpion dies, and the ceremony is completed.

Shen Mo closed his eyes again and slowed down a bit before getting up. The moment he got up, his expression became tense, he frowned tightly, and called Qin Qi and Hua Lixuan in.

Seeing that his expression was wrong, Qin Qi asked, "What did you figure out?"

Shen Mo said solemnly: "Qin Qi, evacuate all the people immediately. Hua Lixuan, you take the token and ask them to open the city gate. If they don't obey, they will be killed on the spot."

Qin Qi knew that the situation was critical, but he was still worried: "What about the plague...?"

Shen Mo Ning raised his eyebrows: "The seven or eighty-eight who have been cured will not be contagious again."

Qin Qi nodded and immediately went out to organize.

It was rare that even Hua Lixuan didn't hate Shen Mo, holding the second prince's token that he got from Su Yunshu in one hand, and the Frost Sword in the other, he walked towards the gate of the city.

Shen Mo showed his face in the city. He had a very high status among the people in the three cities, and he was already a god. When he said to let go, the people believed it, thinking that it was an arrangement from heaven.Seeing the people starting to move in an orderly manner, Shen Mo walked towards the temple hut with a big black robe.

Su Yunshu couldn't help, and he didn't dare to go out of the room, fearing that he would infect others, so he fidgeted anxiously.

As soon as Shen Mo entered the door, he grabbed Shen Mo and asked, "Are the three cities going to be bombed?"

Shen Mo nodded slightly, put the robe on him, put the cloak on him again, covered it tightly, grabbed his arm through the robe, and said: "Let's go."

Su Yunshu frowned, and said hesitantly: "Brother Shen, I... I can stay, I have a plague on my body, I'm afraid..."

Shen Mo's tone became more serious, which seemed unquestionable, and he said again: "Let's go!" Then he dragged Su Yunshu out.The people were rushing to evacuate. Seeing that Qin Qi could handle it, Shen Mo put his arm around Su Yunshu's waist and escaped from the wall behind the temple with light work.But at such a tense moment, a strange idea suddenly entered Shen Mo's mind: Su Yunshu's waist is so thin that he can hold it with one hand.

At the border of Yinghu Lake, some distance away from the three cities, Shen Mo said to Su Yunshu: "Be honest, wait for me here."

Su Yunshu's face was covered by the cloak, and his expression could not be seen clearly under the shadow. He nodded and sat down on the spot, looking obedient.Shen Mo flew away again to check the situation on Qin Qi's side.

Soon, the sky entered darkness.

A huge roar sounded from inside the three cities, followed by a series of explosions, waves of heat surged outwards, and the flames soared into the sky, completely lighting up the entire sky. All the buildings in the three cities collapsed, the city soil collapsed, and the smoke All over the sky, with the sour smell of gunpowder itself, the pungent smell can be smelled from far away, the sound of the explosion resounded in all directions, like thunder, for a moment, Su Yunshu didn't know whether to cover his nose or block his eardrums and trembled violently .

Perhaps the scene was too shocking, but Su Yunshu could hear the sharp shouts of the people not far away, maybe she was really frightened.Su Yunshu sighed, glanced back, and found that Yinghu was shaken and turned up a huge wave, which was attacking him overwhelmingly.Su Yunshu scolded Gou Niang, and quickly stood up, feeling that she couldn't hide, so she turned her back subconsciously.

But what I felt in the next second was not the gushing water, but a warm embrace.Shen Mo arrived at some time, and held Su Yunshu tightly in his arms. There was a loud "wow", and Shen Mo resisted the huge impact for Su Yunshu.Su Yunshu struggled out of his arms, looked back at him, and saw that Shen Mo's whole body was drenched, and he was quite embarrassed, Su Yunshu himself was inevitably a little wet, he looked at Shen Mo, and smiled lightly.Pulling Shen Mo away, he was afraid that the second round of huge waves would hit again.

Yinghu Lake is surrounded by mountainous terrain, but they are all short mountains. At night, the wind is fierce. Su Yunshu was afraid that Shen Mo would catch cold, so he took him to a mountain depression and lit a bonfire.

Su Yunshu was very apologetic and said: "It's winter now, you will get sick wearing wet clothes, or take it off and bake?"

Shen Mo took off his clothes without a word, and sat next to the campfire in only his trousers, concentrating on drying the clothes.

Su Yunshu took off the black robe she was wearing and put it on Shen Mo. After seeing two circular scars on his left arm, she was silent for a moment, and said slowly, "I'm sorry."

Shen Mo turned his head, "Huh?"

Su Yunshu smiled sadly, "At the beginning, I was ordered by my father to save you from national disasters, but I didn't know you, and I didn't know if you were willing to take on the important task of saving the Central Plains, so I had to come up with a bad plan and trick you into coming to Daqi. I didn't know that I made such a big mistake at that time and killed so many people. I admit this crime. No matter how you want to punish me, I will admit it."

Shen Mo glanced at the fire that was still burning in the distance, and it took a long time before he said, "I don't know either."

Su Yunshu only felt sour in his heart and bowed his head in silence.

Shen Mo said after a while: "I know you made an unintentional mistake, but I can't forgive you, nor can I forgive myself."

Su Yunshu sighed and smiled bitterly, not knowing how to respond.He knew in his heart, where is the right or wrong in everything?From the very beginning, their positions were different, not to mention the state-owned chaos, the rivers and lakes are scattered, and everyone can't help themselves.If you really want to blame, you have to blame the bad morals of this world, forcing everyone to have no way to be ashamed.He knew that Shen Mo didn't kill him until now, but was struggling in his heart over and over again, just like back then, he tortured himself over and over again, taking all the faults of the Southern Border Kingdom on him.Su Yunshu loves him very much, and admires him very much. Even under the premise of this national hatred and family hatred, he still chooses to help the people of Daqi with all his heart, and will help everyone he sees.

Thinking of this, Su Yunshu chuckled, and felt that she was so lucky to know Shen Mo.

Su Yunshu moved to Shen Mo's side, got closer to him, and said very sincerely: "Brother Shen, no matter how you treat me in your heart, I have to thank you. I have worked hard for you for saving, and you still have to pay me back." If you are willing to help the people of Great Qi Kingdom, this kindness, I probably will not be able to finish it in my life."

After Shen Mo baked the clothes, he returned the black robe to Su Yunshu, quickly changed into his own clothes, and then said in a deep voice, "The people in power should not blame innocent people for their selfish desires."

Su Yunshu rested his chin on his knee, and asked softly, "Where is Brother Shen going next?"

Shen Mo added some dry wood to the bonfire, "Shenmu City."

Su Yunshu frowned, and said a pleasant "hmm".

Shen Mo didn't know what Su Yunshu was happy about, so he turned to look at him and said, "You will follow me when the time comes, don't talk, don't show your face."

Su Yunshu smiled, and put on the cloak to completely cover her face, "Okay, I will always be like this."
