Chapter 355 Chapter 358 Calmly
Under normal circumstances, Yintuli was accompanied by a large number of Turkic masters, so it was not easy to kill him.But now it is a fair duel according to the rules of the rivers and lakes. If Tu Li wants to save his life, it depends on how many catties he has in his hands.

Ba Fenghan is leaving soon, if he can get rid of this person, it will be of great benefit to the future safety of his old friend.

Under the watchful eyes of hundreds of pairs of eyes, Shen Mu pulled out the sword and long sword with a "clang" sound about three feet away from Tuli, and with a flick of his wrist, the yellow light immediately flourished, and he attacked the enemy.

The stern sword energy permeated the imperial path.

Although Tu Li had witnessed Shen Mu attacking and wounding his subordinates, he had a solid foundation for his strength, but he never guessed that he would launch an attack at a distance of three feet away.

There is a lot of knowledge in this.When a master fights against each other, it is often to judge the depth of the opponent from such key points, so as to determine the best way to deal with it.

The whole street was so silent that you could hear the needle drop, and even the sound of breathing was temporarily stopped.

Although the two were separated for the time being, the tension of the confrontation and the condensed atmosphere of the four-eyed confrontation were enough to make people chill and timid.

Tu Li left the gun with his left hand, put it behind his back, and said with a smile: "I have learned the lesson. Those who can be called real masters in the Central Plains must have your name on the list."

Even though he was supporting an opponent, he naturally raised his own status, and he was able to win back the tie with his superb marksmanship, so no one would think that he was timid.

Only Ba Fenghan, who was familiar with him, could see through his background.

Of course Shen Mu also knew that he wanted to step down, but he was not without scruples.Whether he can really kill Tuli is still unknown.Even if it can be done, I will be injured to some extent.But now Ba Fenghan is just like Li Misheng Yu Wenhuaji's situation, winning miserably.Therefore, maintaining one's own strength is really the most important thing.

What he was afraid of was Li Shimin who had disappeared.

"Clang"!Shen Mu put his sword back into its sheath, cupped his fists and said, "Khan is really a hero, he will have some free time in the future, so let's drink or compete."

These words can be said to give Zhu Tuli face, but also show Shen Mu's extraordinary mind and demeanor, Tuli can't help but feel good about him.

He didn't want to be an enemy of Shen Mu, but because of Ba Fenghan's relationship, he took the stand of opposing the enemy, so he also pointed his gun at the back, saluting: "If there is a chance, we must meet Brother Kou!"

Turning to his subordinates, he said, "Let's go!"

Fuqian looked at the backs of Tuli and the others leaving, and said loudly, "That's it for tonight, thank you all my friends for coming to the meeting."

After finishing speaking, he stepped into the royal road, came to the side of Shen Mu, Xu Ziling and Ba Fenghan, and said apologetically: "Little brother was negligent just now, I can't see brother Ba and needs to rest well. Little brother bid farewell!"

Without waiting for the three of them to answer, he smiled and went on his own.

The three of them couldn't help feeling chills at his inscrutable.

The three walked slowly along a side street, waiting for the dawn to come.

Shen Mu asked Ba Fenghan with concern, "How do you feel?"

Ba Fenghan smiled and said, "It's much better!"

Shen Mu said passionately: "I haven't officially notified you yet, but Boy Li and I have really fallen out!"

Xu Ziling sighed: "I don't need you to tell me the inevitable result."

The footsteps of the three of them echoed softly in the empty long street under the moonlit night.

Ba Fenghan smiled calmly, didn't answer him, instead said: "You have to be careful of Li Shimin, besides his own excellent martial arts, Yang Xuyan, Hong Fu Nu, Li Jing, Li Shentong, Changsun Wuji, Yuchi Jingde, etc. A master who can stand on his own is no less powerful than the Yingui sect."

The three of them turned left to the main street leading to the south city gate. Shen Mu said, "I'm not afraid of them. But I'm afraid of how Shi Feixuan will deal with us after recovering from injury. None of us is her opponent. The most terrible thing is that even if she is Alone, we are also reluctant to join forces to deal with her, a beauty who looks like a Bodhisattva."

Xu Ziling said calmly: "She will only settle accounts with me, and I will take care of it."

Shen Mu deliberately rushed to Xu Ziling's front, facing him while retreating and said, "Ha! Xiaoling has finally found someone he loves! Otherwise, how could he do it all by himself and not let others intervene."

Xu Ziling frowned and said, "Why do you always like to think about the personal relationship between your children. In fact, you are very similar to Brother Feng Han in this matter, but the goals you pursue are different!"

At this time, we have reached the north bank of Yishui River, and the bright moon hanging obliquely in the western sky casts the houses on the bank onto the slow-flowing river, forming another shadow world that coexists, as beautiful as an unreal dreamland.

An arch bridge spans Yishui River, under which more than a dozen small boats are moored, and the water gently hits the hull of the boat and the embankment, making a rustling sound.

Shen Mu suggested: "If we sit on the bridge and see Lao Ba for a ride at dawn, our friendship will not be in vain."

Ba Fenghan looked up at the sky, let out a long breath and said, "Then we still have more than half an hour!"

The three stood side by side on the bridge, looking eastward, the river meanders and stretches, and under the clear night of stars and moon, there are many houses on both sides of the river, full of static beauty with rich layers, as picturesque as a dream.

Ba Fenghan was afraid of disturbing the dreaming residents of nearby houses, so he whispered to Shen Mu: "Are you underestimating the enemy too much? Why don't you seem to take Li Shimin to heart? From my point of view, among the heroes, no matter the individual Or the strength he possesses, he is at most second only to Li Mi who was before the fight with Yu Wenhuaji, or even surpassed."

Xu Ziling nodded and said, "I've never heard of Li Shimin being defeated."

Shen Mu said triumphantly: "The so-called attacking bravely, with my current meager strength, only an idiot can fight him head-on."

Ba Fenghan and Xu Ziling couldn't help laughing at the same time.

The former laughed and scolded: "Go to your mother's 'soldiers to fight bravely', people are obviously 'soldiers to fight bravely', but they have to say it the other way around, and it becomes nondescript. If soldiers are not brave, they don't need to fight and lose."

After laughing with the two of them for a while, Shen Mu said in a low voice, "Boy Li doesn't have time to deal with me at all."

Xu Ziling said, "How do you say that?"

Shen Mu said: "Xue Ju, who claims to be the overlord of the Western Qin Dynasty, and his son Xue Rengao, who is a master of martial arts, are preparing to invade Chang'an again; while Liu Wuzhou will take advantage of the situation to attack Taiyuan and shake the foundation of his Li family. In this case, where is Li Xiaozi? There is still time to cook for me."

Ba Fenghan said with emotion: "The strength of these two armies is really not easy to parry. I heard that Xue Ju has a general named Zong Luohou under his command. He is so brave and powerful."

Xu Ziling said, "Although Young Master Zhong's plan is as good as he wants, it's a pity that we don't know when this will happen. Then Li Shimin still has enough time to try to kill us first."

Shen Mu said confidently: "Try to guess, where did Li Xiaozi slip away just now?"

The two of them immediately stumped him, speechless.

Shen Mu said in high spirits: "He is going to see Wang Shichong."

The two nodded in agreement, and couldn't help admiring his extraordinary intelligence.

Shen Mu explained: "Be it good or bad, I'm finally in Wang Shichong's camp now. If Li Xiaozi wants to touch me, he has to say hello to Wang Shichong anyway, so that he can see what he wants."

Ba Fenghan said: "Since Wang Shichong is an old fox, he should see through your ambition. Maybe Li Shimin will let you get rid of you."

Shen Mu smiled and said: "If you said this yesterday, I really dare not refute you. But after I made some arrangements, Wang Shichong weighed his interests and would only dare to touch me after Li Mi's defeat. Now he has to defend I'm too late!"

Ba Fenghan wondered, "Why do you have such confidence?"

Shen Mu happily said: "First of all, it is Zhai Jiao's relationship. Now I have become an intermediary, and only Wang Shichong can get the most precious information about Li Mi's army from me. Even instigating rebellion is still secretly loyal to Zhai Rang. Old department."

Ba Fenghan nodded and said: "Just this reason is enough to make Wang Shi treat you like a pearl and take good care of you. What's the other reason?"

Shen Mu replied: "Wang Shichong will be present when Rong Fengxiang arranges the birthday wine the day after tomorrow. This will give Shen Luoyan a chance to assassinate him. For Wang Shichong, who cherishes life like this, without me, the chief adviser and top expert, to manage it." , How dare he do such a dangerous plan to lure the snake out of the hole."

Ba Fenghan said in admiration: "Sure enough, it is both brave and cunning. Whoever wants to underestimate you will regret it very much one day."

Shen Mu said indifferently: "In my opinion, Wang Shichong will agree to Li Xiaozi to join forces with me, but he must take action after defeating Li Mi. At that time, he will have a showdown with me. Assuming I am willing to be used by him, everything will be fine. , otherwise they will set up a trick to get rid of me while I am not guarding. This is a famous lesson taught by the old master Bai."

Xu Ziling interjected: "But with Li Shimin's intelligence, it should be obvious that Wang Shichong can't deal with you, maybe he will still take action. If you lay dead on the street now, even if Zhuge Liang came back to life, he wouldn't be able to guess who did it. "

Shen Mu smiled and said: "As long as Li Xiaozi dare not openly gather crowds to attack, why should I be afraid! If I were so easy to be killed, I would have died many times already!"

Ba Fenghan pondered: "Although you can secretly influence and even manipulate the situation in the Central Plains, I still don't understand why you have such confidence in fighting for the world."

Shen Mu took a deep breath and said, "The key lies in the 'Duke Yang's Treasure House'. If I can't find it, I have no choice but to fight for the hearts of the world and come to the desert to ride horses with you in the grasslands for joy.

Ba Fenghan said emotionally: "There are many things that are better off thinking less, the biggest trouble in life is thinking too much."

At dawn, the three riders galloped at full speed, passed through a sparse forest in the northwest of the city, ran up a dirt slope, and at the same time reined in their horses to stop.

Surrounded by mountains, a small lake lay peacefully on the grassland in front of them. The green water was rippling among the trees, and the early morning mist was swaying on the green lake. The three of them were immediately refreshed.

Shen Mu pointed at the poetic and picturesque scenery in front of him with a whip and said with a long smile, "If we hadn't insisted on giving you another ride, we wouldn't know there was such a good place nearby."

Ba Fenghan jumped off his horse, tied a heavy money bag to Shen Mu's saddle, and said with a smile, "There are at least 50 ingots of gold in this bag. It is said that the food and grass go first before the three armies move. Take it as me, Ba Fenghan, donating a little support to your imperial kingdom."

Shen Mu didn't refuse, and said happily: "We don't need to talk nonsense between brothers, anyway, I understand! You'd better put on the mask immediately, then Ba Fenghan will be like disappearing to those who want to follow you."

Ba Fenghan shook his head and said, "It's not enough to just change my face. When I arrived at the nearest town, I changed my clothes, put away my weapons, and simply pretended to be an ordinary businessman. That would be more deceptive."

Xu Ziling said: "If it wasn't for Ba Daier, who would have made you Ba Fenghan do everything possible to hide your true colors?"

Ba Fenghan flew on the horse, looked around for a week, and sighed: "From this moment on, I will never think of her again, let alone hope to meet her again."

Then he took a deep look at each of the two, with their eyes fixed in front of them, and said in a deep voice, "We will see each other again. The two brothers cherish it!"

Clamping the horse's belly, the healthy horse neighed and let go of its four hooves, rushed down the hillside, and left in the dust.

The two watched him appear and disappear in the forest, grass and fields without looking back, and finally turned into a small dot and disappeared in a dense forest.Shen Mu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "No one is following him!"

Xu Ziling nodded in agreement.

The two of them rode their horses back and slowly descended the slope.

Shen Mu let out a sigh of sullenness full of feelings of parting, and said bitterly: "Parting from life to death is so heartbreaking."

Seeing Xu Ziling's pensive look, as if he didn't hear his own words, he wondered: "What are you thinking? Are you wondering that no one is following us? In fact, it should be so. Who wants to mess with us now, don't think twice How?"

Shen Mu pondered for a while, and said, "It's time to introduce you to Wang Shichong!"

Xu Ziling showed annoyance, shook his head and said, "I still don't want to see this kind of person today, you go back to the city first! I want to ride a horse for a while, but I don't know why, but I always feel a little depressed."

Shen Mu said in astonishment, "Isn't it a sign of madness?"

Xu Ziling scolded with a smile: "Fuck your obsession. Now you take your Yangguan Road, and I will take my single-plank bridge. Don't forget that Song Lu waited for us at Dong's restaurant at noon, go see your Wang Shichong and Shuni sister Bar!"

Said that Bitzerma went on his own.

Shen Mu stayed for a while, then shook his head with a wry smile, and returned to the city on his own.

Shen Mu rode his horse straight into the imperial domain, and only got off the horse when he was outside Shangshu's mansion. Before he had climbed all the steps, Dong Shuni, who was dressed in a strong suit, rushed out from the gate of the mansion with Xiangfeng in his arms, and scolded coquettishly with wide-eyed eyes: "You have no guts! follow me!"

Seeing the guards guarding the door all staring at them, Shen Mu felt embarrassed, so he had to follow her into the house.

Dong Shuni walked into the West Hall and expelled all the servants. She pointed to the chair by the window and said angrily, "Sit there for me!"

Shen Mu was also angry, and said displeasedly: "Am I your slave? Tell me quickly if you have anything to do, I'm very busy today."

How could Dong Shuni expect that Shen Mu dared to contradict her, her eyes widened in anger, she pointed at her and cursed: "You heartless person, how dare you talk to others in such a tone."

Frankly speaking, even though she looks like a crazy tigress, she is still so delicate and beautiful, her posture is moving, and she has a special charm.In particular, the posture with the chest straightened out and the hands crossed on the small waist is even more attractive.

Shen Mu saw that her eyes were red with anger, tears were about to drop, and most of the anger in her heart disappeared immediately.He also thought to himself that he was a manly man, so he didn't have to argue with her.

Haha smiled and said, "Sit down! It's no big deal."

After sitting down, he patted his thigh and said, "Miss Dong, do you want to sit in the most comfortable chair in the world?"

Dong Shuni stared at him for a long time, stomped her feet and said angrily, "I'll settle the old score with you first, where did you go that night?"

Shen Mu spread his hands and said: "I heard that Rong Fengxiang will serve the birthday wine tomorrow night, so I thought that the lady said the wrong date for a while, and there is something wrong with it, hehe! You understand!"

He didn't want to entangle with her any longer, so he reminded her that he had seen through her plot, and taught her to retreat in spite of difficulties.

Dong Shuni came to him like a whirlwind, her jade legs almost touched his knees before she stopped, cursing aggressively: "See you Shen Mu's big head ghost, his birthday wine is kept for seven days in a row, Otherwise, how can it be called a big birthday."

Shen Mu was almost at a loss for words, but fortunately he frowned, took the opportunity to trick her, and said with a wry smile: "Little Nini, don't play tricks on me anymore! Brother Xu Yan and I didn't know each other, and now we are irresistible. He And put everything together. Ha! I will go to Rong Mansion to find him later, do you want to go together?"

Dong Shuni retreated three steps as if struck by lightning, her pretty face turned pale, and she muttered incredulously: "He...he really..."

Shen Mu smiled heartily, no matter how cunning you are, he was always a little softer, and immediately revealed the tail of a fox, allowing himself to prove what was purely based on speculation.Patted the clothes, stood up and said: "Let's make out again later!"

Then he walked away with a smile.

Shen Mu returned from the side hall to the main hall, and when he was about to enter the inner hall, he happened to meet the light and glamorous "beautiful orchid" Ling Longjiao who always showed disdain for him. Neither of them expected to meet each other.Shen Mu had just received a lesson from Dong Shuni, so he tried his best to restrain himself and just nodded as a salute, which was regarded as a greeting.

On the contrary, the beauty of the alien race showed him a rare smile, walked side by side with him and said, "Your battle at Luoyang Bridge last night was really exciting."

Shen Mu said in astonishment: "Miss Jiao is really amazing, she was able to hide from so many people and sneak up close."

Linglongjiao replied indifferently, and said indifferently: "If you don't have this ability, how can you be a spy for Lord Shangshu?"

This woman is willing to answer questions and answers with him, which means that her attitude has changed.

Just when he was about to find another topic, Xu Xingzhi hurried out from the inner hall, and when he saw Shen Mu, he gave him a wink not to talk, and then said politely: "My lord is waiting for Lord Kou in the study."

After saying that, he wiped himself away.

Linglongjiao stopped walking and said: "Master Shangshu should have something to say to you alone, see you later."

After a while, Shen Mu came to the study, Wang Shichong waited for the door to be closed, saw him sitting down on the grand teacher's chair on the left, and said, "Fortunately, you were not taken by the enemy last night. Right in the arms of the enemy, it is even more difficult to catch up in time, and in the end we have to stand still."
