After Fang Shunyi left, Chu Muyun took off his shirt and received Xue Waner's daily routine treatment. Now his martial arts has almost recovered to 90%, and most of the poison in his body has been eliminated. He will be able to return to his peak in one month. Three hours later,
Xue Waner took off the needles and changed clothes with Chu Muyun to rest. After dawn, the couple and Fang Shunyi left the small county town on horseback, preparing to go to Luzhou. Passing by a wine shop on the way, the three of them dismounted to rest. Although the shop was empty,
pots, pans, pans and ingredients were all available. Fang Shunyi hurried to collect firewood, while Xue Waner arranged her clothes and prepared to cook. At this moment, a handsome young man carrying a jade tooth guzheng walked in. Chu Muyun took a closer look and recognized that this was Dongfang Lingxiao, who had met once at the martial arts conference. He is the chief disciple of the Yuqin Sect.
When Chu Muyun saw Dongfang Lingxiao, he hurriedly came forward to say hello. Dongfang Lingxiao smiled and said: "Brother Chu, farewell and well. It has been a few days since we said goodbye to the martial arts conference. I heard that you are in Chang'an. In the arena, you defeated the sycophant, married the princess, and became famous, but now your brother has become the target of all forces.
The leader of the dragon-slaying organization, Blood Lord, wants to avenge you for killing his nephew. , Song Kai of Queling Palace wants to seize your weapons to dominate the world, and your imperial brother Chu Tian has sent several waves of killers to the Central Plains." Hearing this, Chu Muyun glanced at his third sworn brother, and then thought of him in the middle of the night. Go out and come back with blood on your clothes and injuries on your body.
That means: you went out in the middle of the night a few days ago, and I didn't see you showing up when I got into trouble. Just to do these things? Fang Shunyi smiled playfully: "Brother, aren't I afraid that you are in danger? Those southern Xinjiang warriors and killers are trying to harm you every night. I am worried and can only protect you secretly.
"Chu Mu Yun snorted coldly: "Your martial arts is too weak. If you make a mistake, you will make me feel sorry for you."
Fang Shunyi smiled and said: "Brother, don't say you feel sorry for me, you have to let my sister-in-law hear you. , I have to be jealous.” Don't be angry." Dongfang Lingxiao was stunned when he heard this: "Brother Chu, aren't you and the princess a couple? Why are you so unfamiliar with each other?" Xue Waner complained: "Don't call me that.
It's been almost four months since I got married to him, and he hasn't touched me yet. Mr. Dongfang, you have to judge me." Chu Muyun explained helplessly: "I didn't want to marry her at the beginning. My sister Chu Xuening was the one who got in the way, so I had to marry her." Xue Waner said aggrievedly, "But I even taught you the Xue family's halberd technique. "Why are you still refusing to agree to it? It's because I'm not pretty enough. Or don’t care enough about you?
Seeing Xue Waner's aggrieved expression, Chu Muyun felt a little guilty. He said softly: "Princess, it's a long story, and I didn't mean to neglect you." A trace of disappointment flashed in Xue Waner's eyes, and she said: "I know you have many worries in your heart,
But I am also a woman and I also need my husband’s care. Dongfang Lingxiao said from the side: "Brother Chu, since we are married, why should we be so obsessed with the past." The princess is gentle and touching, you should cherish her. "Chu Muyun was silent for a moment and said, "I understand. Thank you Brother Dongfang for the reminder. "
When Xue Waner saw Dongfang Lingxiao speaking for her, she took the opportunity to lean next to Chu Muyun and act coquettishly. Husband, can't you be gentler to me? Chu Muyun faced his wife's coquettishness, < /p>
She is still so cold and arrogant, so don’t be arrogant! This princess is going to be arrogant again! Come here! Before she finished speaking, Xue Waner grabbed her husband’s hand and put it on her face. While stroking,
Seeing this, Chu Muyun withdrew his hand fiercely. Okay, let's get back to the topic. Brother Dongfang, you must have something to ask for when you come here. Dongfang Lingxiao smiled and said, Brother Chu, your title of Jinghai Jiaolong is really not in vain!
Yes, I am here to ask you to help me find someone. He is my junior brother, and he used to be better than me in martial arts! After being assassinated by the Ghost King Ying Tianche, who lost all his martial arts skills, Chu Muyun waved his hand,
I know who you are talking about, Jiutian Demon Qin Duanmo and I met three years ago. When Shen Yu first entered the world, he once helped him defeat the finger-broken ghost king Ying Tianche. Why did he come near Luzhou?
Dongfang Lingxiao sighed and said, "Oh, Brother Chu, it's true. To be honest, there are rumors in the world recently that Duan Mo has appeared near Luzhou. I searched everywhere, but he was nowhere to be found.
Brother Chu, you are well-connected and well-informed, so I came to you for help. Chu Muyun frowned and said, "Brother Dongfang, I'm not very familiar with this area of Luzhou." However, I can ask some friends to help me find out. "
After the two of them finished talking about the world, they continued to drink happily. After three rounds of wine and five dishes, Dongfang Lingxiao suggested: "Brother Chu, you are still drunk, why don't you and I show off our unique skills? , to help you enjoy drinking. ""good! I'll dance the sword, and you'll play the piano.
" Before he finished speaking, the Dragon Blood Tangxi Sword was instantly unsheathed. In an instant, the sound of the piano intertwined and the sword wind roared. Chu Muyun's figure shuttled back and forth between the walls, Dongfang Lingxiao's piano music and hidden weapons left and right. Flying. The wind chimes hanging under the edge of the room were blown by the breeze, making a crisp sound.
At this time, Chu Muyun thought in his heart: "Well, let's have a good time with Brother Dongfang today. Use Mo Ying's sword technique to your heart's content and feel happy! "
Chu Muyun wiped his mouth and continued to dance with the sword. After finishing the last move, the Dragon Blood Tangxi sword pierced the wall. Xue Waner hurriedly stepped forward to check and asked with concern: "Husband, Are you okay?
"Chu Muyun replied coldly: "As long as the princess cares about you, I am not in serious trouble. "In fact, he secretly thought: "It's just a small show of skill, how can anything happen? The fact that the princess was so concerned made me feel a little uncomfortable. ”
Time flies by like a white horse, two hours in the blink of an eyeGone. Chu Muyun and Dongfang Lingxiao each jumped on their horses and rode towards their respective destinations. As night fell, Chu Muyun and three others arrived at the gate of Luzhou City. After entering the city, the three of them found an inn to rest.
Xue Waner began to give her husband acupuncture and medication as usual. In the middle of the process, Chu Muyun suddenly asked: "Princess, who is that portrait in your palace?" I have never forgotten it, so I drew a portrait for you." Chu Muyun asked, "But I was new to the world at that time, and I had never met you in person."
< p> Xue Waner smiled sweetly and said: "That's because you are the lover of my dreams. Since that day you appeared in my dream, I can't forget you. Fortunately, I got my wish, and you and I finally became Husband and wife." Chu Muyun was slightly stunned when he heard this, and thought to himself: "With all her plans, I didn't expect that I would become a pawn in the hands of others. It turns out that she is not someone I can trust." Seeing her husband in a daze, he gently twisted the silver needle on his back, "Hiss!" Chu Muyun felt pain. The princess said angrily: "What's wrong? You idiot, why were you so stunned for so long without saying a word?"Chu Muyun frowned slightly and remained silent. How should he deal with this complicated situation? He was filled with doubts and uneasiness. Does Xue Waner in front of her really love him, or does she have other motives? All this seems to be hidden in the fog.
At this moment, Chu Muyun decided to remain calm for the time being and continue to observe the development of the situation. He wanted to find out the real intention behind Xue Wan'er and his role in this chess game.
The night becomes deeper and deeper. Chu Muyun was lying on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep. His mind kept replaying all the past events and the bits and pieces of his acquaintance with Xue Wan'er. He began to wonder if it was all just an elaborate hoax. Is her suspicion about this wife right?
At this time, Xue Waner was also tossing and turning, having trouble falling asleep. She felt that her husband seemed to be getting farther and farther away from her. Opening her eyes, she saw him lying next to her. Although Chu Muyun had always been cold to her, he had never made her fearful like this. She gently shook Chu Muyun awake from his sleep, and called softly: "Husband." Chu Muyun responded in a hazy voice: "Princess, what's wrong?"
Xue Waner's eyes were filled with tears. Worried, he asked softly: "Husband, why have you been so cold to me in recent days? Is there something I didn't do well that made you angry?" Chu Muyun was silent for a moment, and said slowly: "I just There are some things that need to be thought about, and they have nothing to do with you."
Xue Wan'er stared into his eyes, trying to find an answer in his eyes. However, Chu Muyun's eyes were like a deep pool, making it difficult for people to peek into the true emotions inside.
Chu Muyun avoided Xue Waner's gaze and turned sideways. When Xue Waner saw this, her heart ached and tears rolled in her eyes.
She bit her lip, her voiceHe asked with a slight trembling: "Husband, you and I are husband and wife, and now you are not even willing to say a true word to me?"
Chu Muyun was extremely entangled in his heart, he didn't know whether You should tell Xue Wan'er your suspicions.
At this moment, there was a slight noise outside the door. Chu Muyun instantly became alert and whispered: "Silence."

He stood up and walked to the door, listening.
Xue Waner looked at his back nervously, feeling filled with uneasiness.
After a while, Chu Muyun turned around, a trace of doubt flashing in his eyes.
"It seems like someone is watching us." He frowned.
Xue Wan'er's heart tightened, "Husband, what should we do?"
Chu Muyun thought for a moment and said: "Stay still for now and see what the other party's purpose is. "
As the days passed, Chu Muyun and Xue Wan'er always remained vigilant.
One night, the moon was as bright as silver, and everything was silent.
Chu Muyun tossed and turned, unable to sleep.
He stood up quietly, put on his clothes, and decided to go out and check it out.
Xue Waner was not asleep. When she saw him getting up, she asked softly: "Husband, where are you going?"
Chu Muyun looked back at her and said, "I Go outside and take a look, and you can sleep peacefully."
After saying that, he gently opened the door and blended into the night.
Chu Muyun patrolled around the city but found nothing unusual.
Just as he was about to return to the inn, a black shadow passed by him.
He was startled and immediately chased after him.
The black shadow was extremely fast. Chu Muyun tried his best to catch up, but he was still unable to close the distance.
After chasing for an unknown amount of time, Chu Muyun arrived in front of a remote courtyard.
The black shadow disappeared into the courtyard.
Chu Muyun cautiously approached the small courtyard, opened the door, and walked in.
There is a mysterious atmosphere filling the courtyard.
He looked around and suddenly found a portrait hanging on the wall.
The person in the painting is actually himself.
Chu Muyun felt confused. Just when he wanted to take a closer look, there was a slight noise behind him.
He turned around and saw a mysterious man appearing in front of him.
The mysterious man was dressed in black, and his face was covered by a black scarf, so his appearance could not be seen clearly.
Chu Muyun looked at him warily and said in a deep voice: "Who are you? Why do you appear here?"
The mysterious man chuckled and said in a low voice: "Chu Mu Yun, do you still remember me?"
Chu Muyun frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and shook his head.: "I don't know you."
The mysterious man sneered: "Of course you don't know me, but you must know her." As he said that, the mysterious man stretched out his hand, and a ray of light flashed, and a The woman's figure appeared in front of Chu Muyun.
Chu Muyun took a closer look and was shocked. The woman in front of him looked exactly like Xue Waner.
The mysterious man looked at Chu Muyun's surprised expression and said proudly: "This is an phantom I created using secret techniques. She is no different from Xue Waner."
Chu Mu Yun's heart sank and asked: "What exactly do you want to do?"
The mysterious man smiled and said: "I want you to do something for me. As long as you can complete it, I will let you and your wife go." Two people. Otherwise, there will be consequences."
Chu Muyun said coldly: "Why should I believe you?"
The mysterious man took out a jade pendant from his arms and handed it over. To Chu Muyun: "This is a token. After you complete the task, I will naturally give it to you."
Chu Muyun looked at the jade pendant in his hand and fell into deep thought.
He didn't know what the mysterious man's purpose was, and he didn't know whether he should accept this task.
