House attacked
Because of last night's peeping, Su Musong always felt guilty when walking with Mo Xue. When he thought that Mo Xue didn't know that the two people last night were him and Xiao Luochen, Su Musong felt a little relieved and at least he could keep a normal expression.
"How old are you, Mr. Su?"
"fourteen."
"Who are you?"
"Yongcheng."
"Born and raised in Yongcheng?"
"I went to Yongcheng with my parents when I was six years old."
"Where were you before you were six?"
Mo Xue's inquiring questions made Su Musong feel unhappy, and he could not help but stop and ask
"Master Mo Xue, don't you think it's too rude to interrogate me like this?"
Mo Xue turned around, raised the corner of her mouth slightly, and replied with a hint of ridicule
"In comparison, I think putting bedbugs in someone's costume and lying on the roof watching someone shower are more disrespectful."
Su Musong immediately lost his temper. He didn't expect Mo Xue to know.
"You...how do you know..."
"I have no eye problems, and the theatre has never had a servant with a noble temperament."
Although Su Musong and Xiao Luochen were dressed in servants' clothes, they couldn't hide the aura of noble sons cultivated over the years. Moreover, they were also familiar with Mo Xue. How could they deceive Mo Xue by simply changing clothes? After all, they were still young and not very thoughtful.
Now that I have been discovered, I can only admit my mistake.
"I was indeed rude and offensive in this matter. I just wanted to see the brand on your shoulder clearly. I meant no disrespect. Please forgive me, sir."
"It's okay. If I cared, I wouldn't have come to see you today."
Su Musong felt relieved when he saw that Mo Xue looked calm and didn't seem to care much.
"How did you know I was investigating the origin of that branding?"
The investigation of the token and the brand was carried out in secret. Mo Xue was just a theater actor and should not have known about this. But he just said that he was willing to tell the truth about the brand, which clearly showed that he knew Su Musong was investigating. Considering that the spies sent out before were targeted, Su Musong became alert.
"Although your people are investigating secretly, there is no impenetrable wall in this world. In Zhang City, if I want to know something, there is rarely any news I can't get. Last night, you and Young Master Xiao sneaked into the theater and caused a commotion. I am sure you know about the brand on my body."
"Why didn't you get angry when we acted so foolishly? Instead, you told us the truth.
After hearing Mo Xue's explanation, Su Musong became even more confused, but Mo Xue didn't seem to intend to solve his doubts.
"Have you heard of the Purification Temple?"
"No, it seems to be the name of a temple."
"Jingxie Temple is not a temple, but an intelligence organization of Shenghuang."
Su Musong didn't understand why he was clearly asking about the brand but ended up talking about Sheng Huang's intelligence organization, but Mo Xue didn't seem to want to stop, so he could only listen.
"I entered the Jingxie Temple at the age of ten, and was sent to Yufeng at the age of fifteen as a secret agent, lurking in Yufeng's capital, Luojing City. The following year, the spy network in Luojing City was exposed, and we suffered heavy losses, but I was lucky enough to escape. The Jingxie Temple has always been vindictive, and they would not give up easily after suffering such a great loss. So they sent me to track down the mastermind who broke our spy network. It took me two years to track him down and he was in Zhangcheng."
Mo Xue casually recounted her past, but Su Musong grew increasingly alarmed the more she listened. The identity of a spy lurking in a foreign country was so secretive and crucial, how could Mo Xue reveal it so easily? Even kidnappers and robbers would be murdered if their true appearance was revealed, let alone a Sheng Huang spy? Su Musong couldn't help but feel a slight chill on his neck.
"Master Mo Xue, why don't you tell me about the branding? I'm afraid it's not appropriate to tell outsiders about the Evil Purification Temple, right?"
Under normal circumstances, Su Musong would be very interested in such secrets as spies from other countries, but at this moment he only felt it was dangerous.
"That branding is the emblem of the Purification Temple."
As soon as Mo Xue said this, Su Musong immediately understood something.
The brand is the emblem of the Jingxie Temple
Mo Xue is from the Jingxie Temple
Looks like he's about 25 or 26 years old
At the age of seventeen or eighteen, he tracked down the leader of the spy network and went to Zhangcheng.
That was seven or eight years ago, exactly the year when Su Musong's family was wiped out! !
"you!"
Su Musong felt like he had a thousand words to say, but they were all stuck in his throat and he couldn't say a single word.
Mo Xue didn't seem to notice the change in Su Musong's expression at all.
"Mr. Su, we seem to have arrived. Won't you invite me in?"
Su Musong regained consciousness and realized that he and Mo Xue had arrived at the temporary residence he and Xiao Luochen had been staying in. Although Mo Xue was very likely one of the men in black, he hadn't admitted it himself and there was no evidence to suggest he was there. Furthermore, his motive for coming to his house today was unclear. Su Musong calmed down for the moment and invited Mo Xue in.
As soon as Su Musong opened the door, he felt something was wrong. The doorman had disappeared and no one came to greet him. It was even stranger when he entered the hall. For some reason, the maids who served him were nowhere to be seen.
Su Musong went straight to the backyard and saw the guards and servants lying all over the ground.
"Luo Chen! Luo Chen, are you there? Luo Chen!"
Su Musong didn't care about Mo Xue and searched the whole yard for Xiao Luochen. What he was most worried about at the moment was Xiao Luochen's safety. Judging from the situation, if Xiao Luochen had gone straight back to his residence before, he might be in trouble now.
After searching everywhere, there was still no sign of Xiao Luochen. Su Musong was extremely anxious and panicked.
Mo Xue checked and found that the guards and servants who had fallen down were just unconscious and their lives were not in danger. She found a person with minor injuries and treated him, and he woke up.
"Mr. Su, please clarify the situation first."
After Mo Xue's reminder, Su Musong finally calmed down.
"What exactly happened? Where is Master Xiao?"
"In the afternoon, a group of people suddenly broke in. They were very fast. The young man in black, who was in the lead, kidnapped Young Master Xiao. We were unable to stop them and were all injured."
"The boy in black?"
Su Musong glanced at Mo Xue, the young man in black. The first person he thought of was Mo Xue's younger brother. This made him guess about Mo Xue's motive for confessing the branding to him.
Mo Xue and Su Musong obviously had the same idea. In Zhang City, the only black-clad young man who would break into someone's residence in broad daylight and kidnap someone could probably be his younger brother. However, he didn't expect that he would do it himself this time.
"Mr. Su, it seems that this time I will invite you to have tea at my humble abode."
Su Musong was just about to instruct the awakened servant to tell Manager Li to bring enough men to rescue Xiao Luochen, but Mo Xue stopped him.
"It's futile to bring people over there. They can't get in. Don't worry, I will ensure that Master Xiao returns safely."
Mo Xue's tone was flat, but inexplicably convincing. Su Musong still asked the servant to notify the steward, but he did not wait for the steward to bring people over. He followed Mo Xue out of the residence alone and walked towards the iron-like mansion.
