"I'm leaving!"
Zhang Mu shouted at the War Horse King's back, and the War Horse King waved his wings slightly to show that he understood. It was obvious that he was still upset about Zhang Mu's rejection of him just now.
Zhang Mu saw its appearance, smiled and turned away. It was indeed a pity, but maybe it was just not their destiny.
After turning around, Zhang Mu's expression changed to a gloomy one.
If you take the money and don't do the job, maybe you'll just want me to die in there, right?
What Zhang Mu didn't expect was that Su Rui was far more ruthless and cruel than he had learned from their brief exchange.
Su Rui and Huang Yan were already preparing to catch them all in one fell swoop. If anyone managed to escape from the War Horse King, even if it was Qiqidar, they would be killed without mercy.
In his mind, Zhang Mu, Ha Chimu and that woman who had provoked the King of War Horses were doomed to die. The only one who could come out alive was Qiqidar who did not participate in the battle.
However, Qizidar has always had a good relationship with Hachimu, but there is no room for such a stubborn fool in Su Rui's front line.
This time it was a legitimate reason for that beast who dared not accept him to take the blame for him, Su Rui.
By that time, the lords of these two cities would be dead, and the position of the lord of the capital city of Ordos could only be chosen by himself and Huang Yanzhong beside him.
Su Rui glanced at Huang Yan who was looking into the distance beside him, and a sneer inadvertently slipped across the corner of his mouth, but he quickly restrained it.
Both of them are indeed qualified, but Huang Yan is old after all.
Suddenly, in the area covered by Su Rui's mental power, he detected traces of approaching creatures. He was just about to inform Huang Yan that he could take action, but in the next second, he saw a scene that he had never expected before.
It was not Qizidar, nor was it Hachimu who survived by chance.
The four people who had just attacked the War Horse King were all intact and walking in parallel towards the watchtower.
In an instant, even someone as calm as Su Rui began to sweat a little, and he responded to the countermeasures frantically. It was not right for him to leave, nor to meet them. He could only wait for them to come over.
The moment Su Rui's exploring mental power touched Zhang Mu, Zhang Mu also sensed Su Rui's location and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Uncle, I feel like someone is watching us."
Yuan Rui came over and whispered something, Zhang Mu nodded.
The leader said, "It's that guy Su Rui. Just wait and watch the show."
After pushing aside the last patch of grass, the figures of Zhang Mu and others appeared in Su Rui's field of vision.
It was obvious that Su Rui had already told Huang Yan that Zhang Mu and the others were safe and sound. This old man was also a very cunning person and there was no abnormal expression on his face.
They clearly felt that this was something impossible, but the expressions on their faces showed that the presence of Zhang Mu and the others was justified.
Seeing Zhang Mu also coming over with a smile, Su Rui's face showed an expression of welcoming an old friend back, and he said with a smile, "Brother Zhang Mu, Mr. Huang and I have been waiting for you here for a long time. How is it going? Have you tamed the king of war horses?"
"Then I'm sorry to trouble Sub-City Lord Su Rui to take care of me. However, I still missed the opportunity to get the King of War Horses. I'm also very sorry. I just don't know why the two Sub-City Lords are waiting for Zhang Mu here?"
Behind Zhang Mu, Ha Chimu and Qi Qidaer had fire in their eyes, as if they were ready to eat people, but Su Rui pretended not to see anything. He met Zhang Mu's gaze without fear and said calmly, "It's like this. Huang Lao and I are afraid that other mutant beasts or ignorant sentry soldiers will disturb you, brother Zhang Mu."
Su Rui's words were full of loopholes. How dare the mutant beasts enter the territory of the second-level warhorse king? The sentry guarded the horse training farm for so long, how could they make such a mistake? However, his face was filled with righteous indignation and he had no choice but to do it. His thick skin was outrageous.
"Su Rui, do you still have any shame?"
Ha Chimu started cursing and raised the giant axe in his hand, ready to attack. Just now he listened to Zhang Mu's advice not to act rashly, but after hearing what Su Rui said now, he immediately threw Zhang Mu's instructions behind his back and attacked Su Rui.
Zhang Mu reached out and stopped Ha Chimu who was about to run away, and said with a smile, "Su Rui, the city lord, is indeed thoughtful and knows that the taming process cannot be disturbed."
Su Rui smiled and said, "Brother Zhang Mu is indeed sensible. He is not like that young fool who just suffered from the targeting of his abilities and now wants to do it again."
Zhang Mu's smile suddenly turned cold. He raised his eyebrows, stared at Su Rui, and said slowly, "I wonder if the Su Rui branch city lord has taken action to drive away the mutant beasts?"
"Now that you mention it, these mutant beasts have been pretty well behaved today. Brother Zhang Mu, we didn't do anything after all, so we'll return this reward to you, brother Zhang Mu."
After saying that, Su Rui took out an Epoch Card, threw it to Zhang Mu and said, "Brother Zhang Mu, please count it. Here are 10,000 crystals. The amount cannot be wrong."
Zhang Mu took the Epoch Card, but did not put it away. Instead, he put his hands behind his back and observed the sentry tower as if no one was around.
Did he find out?
Su Rui looked at Zhang Mu's back as he inspected the patrol, his eyes somewhat cold, ready to attack at any time.
"City Lord Su Rui, I see this sentry tower is deserted, it's different from before. Where do you think those soldiers who were guarding the sentry tower just now went?"
Zhang Mu walked around, came to Su Rui, and asked calmly.
Su Rui gave the reason why he asked the soldiers to go out just now, saying that he asked them to guard outside, and the horse training farm would not receive anyone before Zhang Mu came out today.
"I see."
Zhang Mu's eyes turned cold, and his tone was calm, as if he was talking about something he had thought of inadvertently. "Su Rui, City Lord, tell me, if no one saw it, would it be possible to silence the witness without being discovered?"
Seeing Ha Chimu and the others moving slowly, Su Rui suddenly realized that Zhang Mu not only guessed that he was going to silence them, but that he and Huang Yan were now in a weak position.
Zhang Mu, who just looked like he had one foot in the coffin, is now completely fine. He feels that this Era Agent has hidden too much.
Su Rui still smiled and said, "Brother Zhang Mu really knows how to joke. Are you trying to silence me and Mr. Huang?"
"I, Zhang Mu, have always been a man who repays kindness with kindness and revenges with hatred. Since City Lord Su Rui has such an idea, he must bear the consequences, right?"
Looking at Zhang Mu's calm face, Su Rui put away his smile since they had already fallen out, and said slowly, "Considering that there are four of you, plus that bug, do you really have the confidence to leave the two of us here?"
Zhang Mu spread his hands and said, "Su Rui will know if he tries to be the city lord."
Su Rui glanced at Zhang Mu's lineup. When he saw Yuan Rui, his soul trembled violently. Thinking of the burning sensation just now, he lowered his head.
"I wonder how Brother Zhang Mu wants to solve this problem? I, Su Rui, will definitely satisfy you, Brother Zhang Mu."
"That's easy."
Zhang Mu's voice was chilling, like a ferocious beast slowly revealing its ferocious fangs.
"Then let's ask City Lord Su Rui, how much do you think the lives of the two branch city lords are worth?"
