In the middle of the night, Jiang Muyu was becoming increasingly sleepy. He closed his eyes and took a nap for a while, but was suddenly awakened by the sound of weapons clashing.

She sat up straight like a frightened bird and looked towards the direction of the sound.

There were two groups of people fighting fiercely in the dense forest. It was quite far away and dark, so she couldn't see clearly and had a hard time distinguishing friend from foe.

She didn't know any martial arts, so she wasn't stupid enough to go over and die. She just sat on the tree and waited for them to finish fighting before going down.

Fortunately, there were not many people on either side, and the winner was decided after just over ten minutes of fighting. The remaining people on the losing side fled, while most of the people on the winning side escaped unscathed.

She waited until everyone had left before she carefully climbed down the tree trunk.

She thought she was being cautious enough, but as soon as her feet touched the ground, a long sword was pressed against her neck. The cool touch made her freeze instantly.

She swallowed hard and pretended to be calm: "Big...Big brother, please spare my life. I was just passing by."

The other party looked her up and down and said coldly, "You are from Tianqian."

His tone was affirmative.

Jiang Muyu didn't dare to argue anymore and admitted: "I... I am indeed a Tiangan, but... but I really have no bad intentions. I don't know either of you. Really, you have to believe me."

She sounded so sincere that she almost raised her hand to swear.

The other party was silent for a moment, as if thinking about the credibility of her words.

Seeing that he had listened carefully, Jiang Muyu immediately expressed her loyalty: "I don't even know martial arts, really... I'm just an ordinary weak woman, I don't even have a weapon on me, if you don't believe me, search for yourself."

The other party really reached out and groped her body for a while, and finally pulled the sword away from her neck, put it back into the scabbard, and ordered in a cold voice: "Come back with me."

She breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, she brought a short knife for self-defense when she came out, but she just left the knife on the tree.

Jiang Muyu did not dare to look at his face, fearing that he would kill her to silence her if they disagreed.

The man asked in a cold voice: "Why are you here?"

She lowered her brows and said, "I came out to look for my husband."

"Who is your husband?"

"My husband is just an ordinary soldier. He went to war with the commander a few days ago and has not returned. I was very worried, so I sneaked out to look for him alone when no one was paying attention."

"Are you talking about the team led by Tianqian Guorui?"

Her eyelashes trembled slightly, and she replied, "That's right."

The other party was silent for a moment, and then said, "I'm afraid your husband is in danger."

In just a few words, Jiang Muyu had confirmed that the other party was definitely not a Tianqian person, and his status in other countries was not low.

She burst into tears almost immediately, her voice choking and trembling: "He promised me that he would come back safely..."

"You, you, don't cry... I hate to see girls cry..." The other party seemed to be suddenly panicked, rummaging around, and finally put one arm in front of her and said, "I don't have a handkerchief with me, so you can use my sleeve to wipe your tears."

Jiang Muyu was not polite either. She hugged his arm and burst into tears, wiping her tears and snot all over his sleeve.

He was obviously a little disgusted, but he didn't take his hand back. He forced himself to turn his face away, looking like he couldn't see it and was not bothered by it.

After crying for a while, she felt tired and stopped.

The two of them sat under the tree, and she finally saw his appearance clearly - round face, full forehead, small and straight nose, short and smooth chin, soft facial features, a typical baby face, showing his childishness.

Jiang Muyu looked sideways at him and asked, "Brother, where are you from and how old are you?"

"I'm from Dongxu, and I'm twenty-two this year." He answered honestly.

I can’t believe that you are already 22 years old, but you look like you haven’t even reached adulthood yet.

Jiang Muyu thought so.

The man also looked at her.

She had just cried, and her eyes and nose were red, her hair was a little messy, and the exposed part of her neck was snow-white with a red mark on it, as if she had been rubbed by something. There was also a lot of blood on her clothes, but it was obviously from someone else.

She really looks like an abandoned little rabbit.

"What's your name?" he asked.

Jiang Muyu pursed her lips and said, "Zhao Zhao, what about you?"

"Luo Huaiyang."

"Oh, what are you doing here?"

"It was a fight. Didn't you see it?" He smiled.

Jiang Muyu found that when he smiled, two small dimples appeared on his cheeks, which was very cute.

It's hard to believe that a boy like this has become a young general who can lead troops into battle.

Luo Huaiyang continued, "I was leading a patrol just now and had a small conflict with Xuan Cang's men, so a fight broke out."

"I saw you came out as a group, where are the others?"

"I was the only one who noticed you, and they were gone."

Jiang Muyu nodded, looked at him again, and asked seriously: "I am from Tianqian, will you kill me?"

Luo Huaiyang was stunned for a moment, then remained silent for a moment before telling the truth: "I can not kill you, but I cannot let you go easily. This is the border area of ​​three countries. Your presence here is too suspicious."

His answer didn't surprise Jiang Muyu at all.

The fact that he did not kill her with one sword when he found out she was from Tian Gan showed that he was a kind person.

Jiang Muyu patted the dust off his pants, stood up, and said calmly: "I'll go with you, as long as you don't kill me."

Luo Huaiyang didn't expect that she would agree to go back with him so readily, and immediately became suspicious: "You...you are not a spy, are you?"

Jiang Muyu thought he was a little silly. Normally, a smart person wouldn't ask directly if he suspected she was a spy.

She smiled helplessly: "If you are worried, you can keep watching me. I don't mean any other thing. I know you won't let me go easily, so I don't want to fight in vain. I just want to save my life."

Luo Huaiyang pursed his lips and frowned, looked at her, and finally said nothing more, "You go ahead, I'll watch you from behind."

Unexpectedly, he was quite cautious, as if he was afraid that she would run away.

Jiang Muyu held his forehead helplessly and complained in his heart: How can I, an unarmed person who doesn't know martial arts, run faster than you?

Even though she complained, she still walked ahead obediently and followed his instructions to go out of the jungle.

After walking for a long time, the sky gradually turned light, and they finally came out of the dense forest. Dongxu's camp was not far away.

Luo Huaiyang pulled out a hemp rope and bound her hands behind her back, explaining as he tied the rope: "I have to make it look like I'm taking you back. I'll try to make it as easy as possible. Just don't run around when you get to the camp. I'll make sure you don't die."

Jiang Muyu knew that he was kind-hearted and smiled warmly: "Thank you."

He whispered, "I am so tolerant because I see that you really don't know martial arts."

"I understand." She paused, then added, "I know you are a good person."

Suddenly getting a good guy card, Luo Huaiyang turned his head away a little embarrassedly and urged her to keep going.

Jiang Muyu didn't know what he would face after entering the enemy's territory, and he could only take one step at a time.
