Wang Bang asked two of his men to carry Mu Jingrui to the middle of the mountain.
Deep in the mountains, there is actually a majestic and imposing mountain villa.
The old butler opened the door holding a lantern, and Wang Bang walked in with his men.
"Is the Lord here?"
"The master is waiting in the secret room. He has ordered you to bring Mu Jingrui's body to see him."
"good."
Wang Bang responded, carried Mu Jingrui and walked into the secret room.
He had just put Mu Jingrui down when he suddenly heard a loud noise behind him and the door of the secret room was closed.
Wang Bang was a little surprised and at a loss as he was about to do anything. At that moment, a light blue disgust erupted from the holes in the wall of the secret room.
He was horrified and ran to the door, shouting, "What's going on? Open the door, I'm still inside... cough cough..."
The fumes are poisonous.
Wang Bang didn't understand why this happened.
Suddenly, he felt an inexplicable sense of oppression behind him. He turned back subconsciously, and a hand reached towards his throat.
He didn't have time to dodge and was grabbed by the neck. He opened his eyes wide in horror. "You..."
"Tell me, who is the master you are talking about?"
Wang Bang struggled desperately, trying to break free from Mu Jingrui's grip.
But Mu Jingrui's fingers were like cold iron clamps, and he felt like his neck was about to be broken.
Mu Jingrui didn't want Wang Bang to die for the time being, so he relaxed his strength slightly.
Wang Bang panted heavily and said, "As long as you take me out, I will tell you."
Mu Jingrui looked back at the blue smoke. After all, he was also a flesh and blood body. Even if he could hold his breath now, the time was limited.
He pushed Wang Bang away, condensed his true energy in his palm, and struck the secret door with one palm.
With a loud bang, Mu Jingrui punched a small hole.
He pushed Wang Bang out first.
The two returned to the long, dark corridor.
At this time, the oil lamps on both sides were all extinguished, and Mu Jingrui could only rely on his profound inner strength to see in the dark.
He took every step carefully, but he could feel smoke still coming out of the holes on both sides of the corridor.
“Crack.”
The sound was particularly clear in the silent darkness.
Sharp arrows replaced the smoke and shot out from the hole, and Mu Jingrui pulled out the soft sword wrapped around his waist.
The sharp arrows were as dense as raindrops, and he gradually felt his hands and feet going numb.
He knew in his heart that he had inhaled the poisonous fumes.
At this time, another sharp arrow shot towards him, and it was too late to dodge.
Mu Jingrui grabbed Wang Bang and put him in front of him.
With a shrill scream, Wang Bang was pierced all over by sharp arrows and died on the spot.
Mu Jingrui took the opportunity to escape from the secret passage. He came to the yard, where twelve men in black were already waiting, standing in different positions and surrounding him.
Mu Jingrui gripped the sword tightly in his hand, always on guard.
The other party seemed to have expected that he was not dead, but it was clear that only he and Shangguan Wanning knew about this plan.
"Greetings, my Lord."
Mu Jingrui looked up and saw a man wearing a black cloak and a black hat walked out.
Judging from his pace and breath, this man should be very young.
"Master Mu, I think you should have observed the surrounding environment when you were climbing the mountain just now. Which part do you like? I can bury you there."
Mu Jingrui frowned.
The voice of the man in black seemed to be disguised and extremely unnatural.
This meant that this person must be someone he knew. Otherwise, there would be no need for him to hide his true voice.
"If there really is a Feng Shui treasure land, you should keep it for yourself." Mu Jingrui said coldly.
The man in black laughed. "Master Mu, do you want to know why I set up this trap in advance and waited for you to fall into it?"
Mu Jingrui remained silent.
"Have you ever thought that the most untouchable people in this world are women. Especially... the women you have let down before."
"Humph, if Ning'er really wants to kill me, I can die in front of her with just one word from her. Why bother with so much trouble?"
Mu Jingrui absolutely did not believe that Shangguan Wanning would betray him.
"It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not. Anyway, tonight is the day you die."
As soon as the man in black finished speaking, he waved his arm slightly, and twelve killers immediately surrounded Mu Jingrui.
Their formation was like a dragnet, impenetrable. Mu Jingrui tried many times but failed to break out.
The poison began to take effect, and his moves began to lose their initial sharpness.
The killer seized the opportunity and launched a violent attack.
While Mu Jingrui was dodging two long swords, he was slashed in the back.
The wounds that Shangguan Wanning had inflicted with the dagger were actually just superficial injuries, but this knife...
The pain made him frown tightly.
Suddenly, many hidden weapons fell from the sky. When the killers dodged subconsciously, a figure fell from the sky and stood beside Mu Jingrui.
"How are you?" Chu Xiaolian supported Mu Jingrui.
"What are you doing here?" Mu Jingrui scolded in a low voice.
Before Chu Xiaolian could answer, the killer attacked again.
Chu Xiaolian did not dodge or evade, but shot the flying knife in her hand at the leading man in black.
The man in black dodged by flipping in mid-air, and Chu Xiaolian was also scratched on the left arm by the killer. Seeing that the other killer's sword was about to pierce Chu Xiaolian's chest, Mu Jingrui pushed her away, and the sword pierced his chest.
"grown ups……"
Chu Xiaolian was terrified. She took out a small fire bomb from her arms, took advantage of the brief explosion time, jumped onto the roof with Mu Jingrui, and rushed away using her lightness skills.
"My Lord, I deserve to die. I will chase after you immediately..."
"No need."
The man in black walked into the yard, looked in the direction where Mu Jingrui and Chu Xiaolian disappeared, and a wicked smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"It's a feat for him to be able to escape. Let him go. He's been poisoned deeply anyway, and he won't live long."
"But... Lord, Shangguan Wanning is the apprentice of the genius doctor Lu Xiangzi. What if she has a way to detoxify? Or, invite Lu Xiangzi. I heard that there is no poison in the world that Lu Xiangzi can't cure."
The man in black stood with his hands behind his back, his face expressionless.
"If I can't use such a person, I can only send him to see the King of Hell."
There was a sinister light flashing in the eyes of the man in black.
Chu Xiaolian and Mu Jingrui ran all the way. As the poison took effect, Mu Jingrui's pace became slower and slower, and in the end he was unable to use his internal energy.
"You can leave on your own before the pursuers come."
"No." Chu Xiaolian said firmly, "If you want to go, let's go together. No matter what, I won't let you die before me."
Mu Jingrui's chest hurt more and more, and he felt that he could not hold on any longer.
"You have to cheer up. I will take you to find Shangguan Wanning. She is waiting for you to come back..."
