Chapter 210: Fight as soon as they meet
On the way, Hu Xin'er mentioned Yin Li: "Although the Pavilion Master of Wanjuan Pavilion has a strange temper, he is well-read like you, so you should be able to chat with each other."
Mu Qing held her hand and said, "My lady, you are right."
Considering the secrecy of the ghost market, both of them had abandoned the carriage and walked.
The sky gradually darkened and the afterglow faded. It was already night when we arrived at the ghost market.
The ghost market was bustling and those strange stalls reopened, but Hu Xiner had already gotten used to it, so she was not afraid.
Mu Qing, on the other hand, looked calm, for he was a ruthless character who had killed an entire village with his own hands.
Anyone in the martial arts world could easily identify an evil spirit, and no one dared to provoke Mu Qing, who had many lives on his hands.
But at this moment, a dusty child ran over happily and passed by the two of them.
It’s the kid who stole my purse—Gou Zi!
Hu Xiner recognized it at a glance and was about to remind Mu Qing, but she saw that Gou Zi had been firmly grasped by Mu Qing's wrist and had been pressed on some acupoint, making him unable to move.
Mu Qing noticed the moment Gou Zi attacked. He picked Gou Zi up like a chicken and asked, "What do you want to do?"
"Woo woo woo! Someone hit the child!" The dog howled immediately, tears streaming down his face.
I thought this place was a lawless place with little human feelings.
But when they heard the dog's crying, the stall owners stood up and appeared beside the two men in a flash.
Soon a group of people were attracted and surrounded Mu Qing and Hu Xiner.
Hu Xin'er was a little bit unbelievable.
Looking at their expressions, they actually feel sorry for the dog!
Could it be that the dog is the group’s favorite here?
At this time, everyone shouted fiercely: "Let go of that child!"
There are so many people in the martial arts world, and it is hard to tell how skilled they are, so it is better not to act rashly.
Hu Xin'er quickly said, "Hey guys, we're here to look for someone, no offense intended!"
Then he whispered to Mu Qing to let him go: "I know this kid. He's the one who stole my purse last time. He's very naughty, but he's not a bad person. Let's let him go this time."
Mu Qing's expression eased slightly and he put the dog down. The dog turned around, made a face, and ran away.
The crowd then dispersed and returned to their stalls.
Hu Xiner breathed a sigh of relief and continued to walk forward holding her husband's hand.
Mu Qing asked in a low voice: "Where are we going?"
"I'll take you to see Yin Li first." Hu Xin'er explained, "He should know a lot of things and know a lot of people. Last time, I was so busy asking Taoist Yiqing that I overlooked him."
And according to Yin Li's arrogant personality, he would never be kind enough to tell it out of kindness if he wasn't asked.
Unexpectedly, just as he reached the door of Wanjuan Pavilion, a figure suddenly appeared and attacked Mu Qing from behind!
He attacked with extreme brutality, and his weapon was a fan. It looked like it was made of white silk and rosewood, but it was surprisingly tough.
Mu Qing was not polite either, and vigilantly drew out his short blade to meet the enemy.
The two men were fighting fiercely, and Hu Xiner could barely see the appearance of the person who suddenly came out to attack Mu Qing.
It turned out to be Yin Li!
"You two stop right now! We are all on the same side!" she said hurriedly, but she couldn't get close because she had no martial arts skills.
The two people fighting each other completely ignored her and focused their attention on the battle.
Both sides' attacks were extremely ferocious. No matter who stopped, the other would definitely take the opportunity to seriously injure the opponent.
The dog poked his head out of the broken straw hut and clapped his hands with a smile.
Even Hu Xiner saw the danger of this battle, and roared with all her strength, finally stopping the two men.
Taking advantage of the fact that both of them were distracted, Mu Qing quickly retreated to Hu Xiner's side, and the shadow of the dagger was infinitely distorted and elongated under the candlelight.
Yin Li fanned herself angrily and rolled her eyes at him.
But Hu Xiner would not be frightened by their murderous looks.
"You, and you!" She glared at the two of them.
Although she had no martial arts skills, her aura at this moment was extremely powerful.
Mu Qing silently put away the dagger and covered the half-inch of his sleeve that had been cut off.
Yin Li waved her fan quickly and hurriedly, and turned her head away to avoid exposing the half-cut black hair. "What are you looking at? This is the Pavilion Master's fan, not a weapon."
Hu Xin'er put her hands on her hips and asked like a parent, "Why are you two fighting?"
Mu Qing grabbed her wrist, looking innocent: "Madam, he was the first to start."
Yin Li raised her chin and said, "It was obviously your husband who bullied the child first. What's wrong with me teaching him a lesson?"
Hu Xin'er explained with a dark face, "It was Gouzi who tried to steal the purse again! My husband didn't know he was just playing around, so he pressed his acupoints and pulled him up, but he didn't get hurt at all!"
Mu Qing nodded gently: "Indeed, my lady is right."
Yin Li was speechless and glared fiercely at the dog inside.
The dog immediately retracted its little head and ran away.
"Don't you claim to be extremely smart? How could you be fooled by a child?" Hu Xin'er was speechless.
If Mu Qing hadn't been so skilled in martial arts, he would have been injured by now.
Yin Li realized that she had made a mistake and argued forcefully: "I didn't know you were just picking it up casually. Can't I just play with you?"
Mu Qing smiled faintly: "It's not impossible, but my wife would be distressed if I were to fight with others after recovering from a serious illness."
Hu Xiner took a deep sniff of the air, and yes, it smelled of vinegar.
On the way, she mentioned Yin Li to Mu Qing several times, but he didn't react at the time. She thought he had become magnanimous after the life-and-death crisis.
Now... I've confirmed through eye contact that he's still my jealous husband.
Yin Li could not fail to hear the possessiveness hidden in Mu Qing's words. She smiled and said, "As expected, no one comes to my temple for no reason. Are you two here to show off your affection?"
The two men looked at each other, and sparks flew as if swords were clashing.
Hu Xin'er sighed, "When I came here, I said you two might become friends, but now it seems a bit difficult."
"Hahaha, friends?" Yin Li laughed exaggeratedly, then turned his head away proudly. "This Pavilion Master doesn't need friends!"
Mu Qing was also very disdainful: "My lady, I don't want to make friends with a young man who can't tell right from wrong."
"Who are you calling incompetent?" Yin Li exploded. "You're already grown up, yet you're still talking about your wife. You're obviously a henpecked husband. Don't you feel bad about being a gigolo?"
Mu Qing smiled faintly: "I have a bad stomach, so I like to eat soft rice, what's wrong?"
The two started arguing again, and Hu Xin'er was in great pain: "Mu Qing, if you keep arguing, we'll sleep in separate rooms tonight!"
Then he looked at Yin Li: "If you keep making noise, I will never come to see you again!"
The two finally fell silent.
Hu Xin'er asked seriously, "Yin Li, have you ever met Jiang Yao?"
