In troubled times, the daughter-in-law returns

Chapter 64 Killing Intent

The stall owner originally thought that Huo Liangzhi would feel gloomy and creepy as soon as he stood here, and he didn't dare to take a look, but when he got the broken silver, he was only excited.

Because setting up a stall here, even a month or two can't make so much money!
By the time he remembered to thank him, Huo Liangzhi had already walked away with his mask in his arms and Mu Xue in his arms.

Not long after, the little raccoon quietly came to the stall, his silent eyes fell on the pen and ink that Huo Liangzhi had used, and he took it back after a long time, turned around, and continued to follow behind them silently.

Even though no one dared to look directly at Huo Liangzhi, Mu Xue's face was already known to everyone in Yecheng. Although they didn't understand why Mu Xue didn't look as charming as before, but After all, she is a rare and stunning beauty, who wouldn't take a second look?
So the news that Mu Xue was walking with an unidentified man on the street spread widely.

Even Sikong Ye, who was buried in his official duties, got the news. He raised his head, his eyes were sharp for a moment, and a murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

Then another question came to mind: Mu Xue is a very special girl, and it is reasonable for her to be eye-catching and sought after by others.

After all, the relationship between him and Mu Xue is just a cooperative relationship. Although there are ambiguous feelings sprouting now, no one has made it clear.

Moreover, Mu Xue's mood is a little bit wrong recently, the reason why he minimized the time to go to Jinxiu Hei is to give Mu Xue a buffer time, so that she can calm down and think about the things between them.

Unexpectedly, someone took advantage of the void and entered!

He immediately sent Gu An to investigate Huo Liangzhi. He didn't even know about such a mysterious person in Ye City. This was Gu An's negligence.

Gu An took the order to retreat, and when he came back half a day later, his body was already bruised.

Sikong Ye knew that this matter was unusual, because he knew Gu An's skills very well, and he was a first-rate player in the Jianghu. The last two opponents who were evenly matched would not be in any danger, not to mention that he rarely does things by himself now when he goes out to do things, and he always takes people with him.

This time, he himself was injured, so it can be seen that the manpower brought out was not much better.

Gu An was ashamed, "Young City Master, this subordinate has shamed you this time!"

Sikong Ye leaned back, raised his hands and rubbed his temples on both sides, "Say."

Gu An took a deep breath, "This time, my subordinates took fifty people out, including ten first-class guards, 20 second-class guards, and 20 third-class guards. We encountered some powerful people, and we didn't go with them. People are fighting head-on, just to inquire about some news is enough."

In fact, Gu An is conservative. The people he brings out are the elite among the elites. Even for someone like Si Kong Ye, as long as Si Kong Ye is not surrounded by experts, it is not a problem to inquire about the news.

But this time they kicked the iron plate.

They were watched almost as soon as they moved out, but they didn't move, and neither did those people.

When Gu An led people to try to get close to Huo Liangzhi, or to investigate Huo Liangzhi's origin, those secret people appeared, and once the two sides fought, they would be tit for tat.

Gu An's side had the home court advantage, but they still suffered a crushing defeat. Of the [-] people they took with them, only nine of them came back alive, including himself.

The opponent's martial arts may not be superior to his own, but his shots are fierce, and sometimes he is completely desperate to fight, so he won in terms of morale from the beginning, and he caught Gu An and others by surprise. When he realized that he wanted to reverse the situation, it was already too late.

In a duel between masters, it is often just one or two moments that determine the outcome.

The good opportunity has been lost and the game is over.

In the end, Gu An was able to bring back eight people because of his rich experience...

After Sikong Ye finished listening, he remained silent for a long time.

Gu An put on one knee, "Young City Master, this time, my subordinates were careless, please give my subordinates another chance, so that my subordinates can make up for their mistakes!"

Sikong Ye looked down at him, "Gu An, did all these years of easy life make you lose your vigilance?"

Gu An frowned, but did not argue.

Sikong Ye raised his hand and tapped lightly on the table a few times, closed his eyes and thought carefully, "Forget it, you go. How many people will be brought this time, I will bring them all back!"

Each of their hands has been cultivated with a lot of hard work, and it is distressing to lose one.

Gu An said loudly: "Don't worry, Young City Master!"

That night, Sikong Ye couldn't hold back anymore and came to Jinxiudui.

When he arrived, Mu Xue had just finished bathing and was wiping her hair in front of the mirror.

He walked over, took the big towel from Mu Xue's hand naturally, wiped her head, and asked casually, "Going to the street today?"

"Walk around casually," Mu Xue replied very relaxedly, "Young City Lord, aren't you busy?"

The layout of this room was completed under Sikong Ye's instruction, so no matter if it was a little more or a little less, he would be able to detect it immediately. For example, at this moment, he saw that there was a beauty mask in the room .

After Mu Xue's hair was almost dry, he walked over and took off the mask from the wall, and asked, "I bought it on the street? It doesn't have that much craftsmanship."

Mu Xue twitched the corners of her lips, "If the young city lord likes it, just take it."

Xiao Ning came over to deliver tea, and asked a lot: "The young city master hasn't had dinner yet?"

Sikong Ye nodded, Mu Xue was a bit surprised, even though she didn't have time to inquire, Huo Liangzhi also asked someone to tell her about Sikong Ye's situation: Before coming to Jinxiudui, Sikong Ye went to Cardamom The courtyard, stayed for half an hour before coming out.

So, shouldn't Sikong Ye come here after eating at Lan Kexin's?

Now that her heart is full of ice and snow, she can use the utmost rationality when dealing with Sikong Ye. Now that Sikong Ye is raising Lan Kexin on the one hand, and on the other hand, he is hanging on himself. Doesn't it mean that he wants to enjoy the blessings of everyone?

Mu Xue was so arrogant that she absolutely disdained to serve her husband with others. Thinking of this, she moved forward, took another dry towel, wiped her hair, and said, "Since the young city lord hasn't For dinner, please move to the dining room."

Sikong Ye understood that this was Mu Xue's thoughtfulness and determination to him, and left happily. He thought that Mu Xue would come over when she finished packing.

But until all the meals were ready, Mu Xue was still nowhere to be seen.

He frowned slightly, and told Xiao Ning: "Go and see your girl."

Xiao Ning came back not long after she left, lowered her head and replied, "Young lady has already fallen asleep..."
