The two looked towards the door, and after a puff of smoke, three people appeared at the door.

It turned out that the shopkeeper and the waiter had returned, and they brought a Taoist priest with them.

The two quickly went into defense mode, thinking about how to deal with them.

However, the other party did not take them seriously.

"Master, it's him. There's something strange about him. Not only was he not knocked out by us, he also injured us." The shopkeeper pointed at Mu Qingyun who was not far away.

Their master was a Taoist priest wearing a Taoist robe. After hearing what the shopkeeper said, he slapped him on the head.

"Asshole, didn't you say there was only one person awake? Why is there another person there?"

"It's unfair, Master. You can ask Mr. Wang. It was clearly only one person who was awake just now." The shopkeeper was so scared that he knelt down immediately.

The waiter at the side saw that he was called and said respectfully, "That's right, Master."

"Oh, it seems that I underestimated him." The Taoist narrowed his eyes and stared straight at Mu Qingyun.

The Taoist's eyes made him feel a little creepy and uncomfortable.

He picked up the long sword he had prepared in advance and started fighting as soon as the opponent rushed over.

The Taoist looked him up and down for a moment and finally found out what was wrong with Mu Qingyun.

It turns out he had a talisman on him, no wonder his disciples couldn't beat him.

He muttered a few words and pinched his fingers, then saw Mu Qingyun surrounded by a beam of white light. A sachet flew out of his arms and landed in the Taoist's hands.

He touched the thing in his hand and looked at it carefully. There was no doubt that the thing inside was talisman paper.

This talisman paper looks unusual. How could this kid have such a thing?

As long as we catch this guy, we can lead out the person who made the talisman papers. Then he can do more things with the talismans papers.

Since Mu Qingyun has some value, the Taoist originally planned to kill him, but now he doesn't want to kill him anymore.

Mu Qingyun wanted to reach out and grab the talisman paper, but he was powerless and could only watch it fall into the other party's hands.

"You thief, how dare you snatch my things directly." Mu Qingyun cursed.

He was so angry that the things Yan'er gave him were taken away just like that.

He wanted to snatch it back directly, but was stopped by Huo Qing.

"Your Highness, wait."

Huo Qing had been observing the other party. Among the three of them, only the Taoist priest could not see his strength, which made him a little difficult.

If they rush forward recklessly without knowing the enemy's strength, they will be the only ones to suffer.

After being stopped by Huo Qing, Mu Qingyun calmed down.

He looked at the package placed aside, which also contained a few talisman papers. These were given to him by Yan'er before, and he almost forgot about them.

There were several immobilization talismans and other talismans in his bag.

He lowered his head and whispered a few words in Huo Qing's ear.

The two looked at each other and decided to act according to the plan.

Huo Qing said to the shopkeeper provocatively: "You sharp-nosed monkey-faced thing, I will beat you to death."

The shopkeeper was the most easily provoked. When he saw Huo Qing scolding him, he picked up a knife and rushed over, and the two of them wrestled with each other.

The Taoist priest wanted to end the battle quickly, so he winked at the waiter, who walked towards Mu Qingyun after receiving the order.

Unexpectedly, Huo Qing stopped him. "Your opponent is me."

The waiter glanced at the ground and saw that the shopkeeper had just been kicked to the ground by Huo Qing and had not yet gotten up.

"Idiot." The waiter cursed.

It seems that this man's strength should not be underestimated.

The waiter's attitude suddenly became serious. He picked up the sword and went straight towards Huo Qing.

Huo Qing was not a pushover and fought back directly.

The Taoist took the talisman paper and looked at it carefully, trying to see something.

He was not worried about his apprentice. Dealing with a tiny human was no problem.

Just as he was immersed in studying the talisman paper, he didn't expect that Mu Qingyun was secretly observing him.

Mu Qingyun lowered his presence and quietly approached the Taoist priest. He picked up a talisman in his hand and prepared to stick it on his body.

"Master, be careful." This scene was seen by the shopkeeper on the ground, and he shouted loudly.

The Taoist priest came to his senses and angrily pinched the talisman paper, crushing it to pieces.

He turned around quickly and stopped Mu Qingyun.

"Let me go, you stinky Taoist priest." Mu Qingyun tried to kick the Taoist priest, but missed. Instead, he held his hands.

The Taoist pinched his arm hard, and his arm lost its strength. "You still want to sneak attack me? Practice more."

When he saw the talisman paper in Mu Qingyun's hand, his eyes lit up. It seemed that he had many more treasures on him.

He must catch the person behind this and use him for his own purposes. Thinking of this, the Taoist couldn't help but laugh.

The reason why Mu Qingyun was captured was not because he was too incompetent, but because he was in the palace and had little practical experience, so Emperor Hui let him come out to train more.

Moreover, this old Taoist priest is a cunning person. Even if Mu Qingyun has a hundred tricks, he is probably no match for him.

He has been in this business for a long time.

Huo Qing caught a glimpse of Mu Qingyun being captured, and was not paying attention when the waiter stabbed him, with blood splattering out.

He took a step back, covered his wound, and looked at the Taoist fiercely, "Let him go quickly."

The Taoist laughed loudly, "You can hardly save yourself, I advise you to give up struggling."

Mu Qingyun knew that he had implicated Huo Qing, so he said to him, "Huo Qing, run away quickly and don't worry about me."

The reason why he called him Huo Qing instead of Lord Huo was that he didn't want to reveal their identities.

Huo Qing endured the pain, his eyes slightly red, "No, I'll go with you."

The two had been together for most of the day and had already developed a tacit understanding. They could understand each other's intentions with just a glance.

Huo Qing is definitely not the kind of person who would flee from the battlefield. If we die, we die together; if we die, we die together.

Seeing the determination in Huo Qing's eyes, Mu Qingyun decided not to dissuade him anymore.

Huo Qing tore a piece of cloth from his clothes, applied a simple bandage, picked up the sword and continued to rush forward.

Hey, boy, you still have some courage.

The waiter actually appreciated Huo Qing's approach.

However, now is not the time to admire him, but to take him down.

Since the open approach doesn't work, then let's try the covert approach. I believe that he will be captured soon, and he can report to his master.

He took advantage of Huo Qing's inattention and shot a golden needle from his mouth. Huo Qing's attention was all on his sword.

He was not paying attention and was injured by the hidden weapon he shot. The hidden weapon was poisonous and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

"You...you actually poisoned me." Huo Qing suddenly knelt down, supporting his body with the sword in one hand to prevent himself from falling.

"Huo Qing, are you okay?" Mu Qingyun, who was far away, did not see the hidden weapon clearly and thought that Huo Qing was stabbed by a sword.

He was anxious, but there was nothing he could do.

The poison was taking effect and Huo Qing's vision gradually became blurred. After a while, his body could no longer hold on and he fell to the ground with a bang.

The Taoist priest winked at the waiter, asking him to drag Huo Qing away and not to kill him.

He locked Mu Qingyun in the next room and blocked her mouth with a piece of cloth.

Mu Nanyan, who was far away in Kyoto, seemed to have sensed something. When the talisman paper was shattered, she realized something was wrong. Did something happen to the second prince?
