As the night wore on, the wind became colder and colder.

The cold wind brought snowflakes, fell on the body, and pierced into the bones, making the blood in the whole body seem to freeze.

Under the raging cold wind, Mu Feng stood motionless, and not far away, Lord Hou in Tsing Yi stood motionless in the darkness.A pair of eyes are deep in the vicissitudes of life, and I don't know what I am thinking.

Inside the bamboo forest, the two stood motionless, and outside the bamboo forest, the pursuers were getting closer and closer.

The hound with a keen sense of smell is in front, followed by the brigade guards, and the distance is getting closer and closer.Slowly, Mu Feng not only heard rustling footsteps clearly, but could even hear how many people were chasing in this direction from the messy footsteps.Even their strength can be roughly judged from the weight of their footsteps and fluctuations in strength.

"You are Mu Feng?"

After a long time, just as Mu Feng secretly pumped the blood in his body and was about to give it a go, Hou Ye in Tsing Yi who was standing in the darkness finally spoke.

"Yes!"

Mu Feng replied quickly, looking at the tall and extraordinary leader of Tongtianwei in front of him, he was a little surprised.

"That's right, you are indeed young and promising, with strong bones, worthy of being the son of Mrs. Mu, no wonder the eldest brother and the others hit it off with you at first sight!" Tsing Yi Hou Ye looked Mu Feng up and down, and nodded.After a pause, seeing Mu Feng's puzzled face, he sighed secretly, and then said: "Mu Feng, could it be that Big Brother and the others never mentioned me in front of you?"

"This..., my lord, the elder brother you are talking about is..."

Mu Feng's face brightened. Although he was puzzled and didn't know why the commander of the Tongtian Guard said that, it was obviously not a bad thing.Before you know it, you can feel that the other party's murderous aura has dissipated!

"Flying bats, Yan Liren!"

Master Hou Tsing Yi quickly replied, for some reason, his face seemed a little sad.

"What, Old Yan?"

Mu Feng let out a cry of surprise, hearing the approaching footsteps of the pursuers, he quickly shut his mouth.After waiting for a while, he lowered his voice and continued, "My lord, you... are you the fifth of Jiannan's Five Heroes?"

Mu Feng was taken aback, looked up and down at the commander of the Tongtian Guard who was not far away, and then suddenly realized.

One is an old man who hates evil and cannot tolerate a grain of sand in his eyes, and the other is the murderous and powerful commander of Tongtianwei. The two are in the same situation, and they are not on the same path at all.No wonder, when Yan Liren, the flying bat, heard that he mentioned the fifth of Jiannan's five heroes, his face immediately became so ugly that he didn't even want to mention it!

"That's right, I'm the fifth brother. It's been many years, and no one calls me that. Ever since I, Hou Qing, joined Tongtianwei, the eldest brother will no longer have me as the fifth younger brother!"

Hou Qing, who was dressed in a green robe, looked sad and sighed faintly.Hearing the rustling approaching footsteps, his face suddenly turned cold, and he lowered his voice and said, "Okay, Mu Feng, let's go, and find a place to hide immediately. Due to hasty preparations, there are not enough crystals in the General's Mansion. The sky-shrouding formation can only last for another hour at most, just avoid this period of time. Hurry up, let's go!"

"Thank you five masters!"

Mu Feng bowed and saluted, and then left quickly, pumping the blood in his body, he disappeared into the dense bamboo forest after a few ups and downs.

As soon as the front foot left, a group of guards chased after them. Just as they were about to continue searching the depths of the bamboo forest, they suddenly saw Hou Qing's figure standing in the dark, and they were taken aback.

"Master Hou!"

Shocked, the guards hastily bowed and saluted respectfully.

"You don't need to be too polite. Get up. I just searched the bamboo forest, and there is no one there. Go ahead and see if there are any!" Hou Qing gave an order with a blank expression on his face.

"Yes!"

The guards did not suspect him, raised their heads and left quickly.Not long after the first group of pursuers passed, another group of guards chased up and searched for Mu Feng's figure.This time, Hou Qing didn't say anything more, and let them search in the depths of the bamboo forest.After the second group of guards searched, another group of guards slowly chased after them, launching a net-like search, not letting go of any corner.

"Mu Feng, I wish you good luck!"

Looking at the direction in which Mu Feng was going away, Hou Qing sighed and disappeared in a flash.

This operation is no small matter, the General's Mansion is now an out-and-out den of dragons and tigers.As the leader of the Tongtian Guard, he can't help Mu Feng much, he can only do this step, stop the pursuers a little bit, and delay him for a while.From now on, whether he can turn the bad luck into good luck and get out of trouble and return to the academy smoothly depends on Mu Feng's own ability.

When the pursuers searched around, Mu Feng came to General Jiangling's residence again without making a sound, and hid in a room next door.

The most dangerous place is the safest place.

While people were specifically searching the dark corners, as well as the lakes, bushes and woods in the general's mansion, he did the opposite and sneaked into this heavily guarded courtyard.In order to ensure that there were no hidden dangers, he even changed his clothes before sneaking in, so as not to be noticed by the hounds with a keen sense of smell.

This is a side room, the room is not big, and it is so dark that you can't see your fingers.After a while, with the help of the hazy moonlight outside the window, I could vaguely see the layout of the room.

Except for a wooden bed and a few chairs, there is almost no decent furniture, plain and simple.But the dresser by the bed and the faint fragrance in the air made it clear that this was a woman's room.From the looks of it, it might be the place where General Jiangling's maid who waits on the room next door lives.In the middle of the night, there was no one in the room, and I don't know if the maid didn't live here at night, or she went somewhere to fool around quietly.

After carefully looking at the layout of the room, Mu Feng hesitated a little, then put down the mosquito net and hid in the quilt on the bed.

The weather is cold in the middle of winter, and the quilt on the bed is a big bed.Hiding inside, the room is dark, and there is a layer of mosquito nets, so you can't really see it if you don't look carefully.On the contrary, hiding under the cold bed, the caring person only needs to bend down a little and take a look to see it at a glance.

crunch...

Just as Mu Feng hid under the blanket, the door was suddenly pushed open with a creak, and a woman in black walked in gently.His footsteps were light, as if he was worried that the loudness of his footsteps would affect General Jiangling who was sick in bed next door.

"Alas, another day has passed!"

The woman in black sat in front of the dressing table, slowly combing her long black and smooth hair.After a long time, with a faint sigh, he took off his coat, opened the mosquito net and lay down on the bed.When I was about to pull the quilt to rest, I suddenly felt something was wrong.Looking sideways, I saw a black head, and a strange man lying on the bed!

"Ugh..."

Shocked, the woman in black opened her mouth wide.However, before she could scream, her mouth was tightly covered by a big hand.She wanted to jump out of the bed and rush out of the room, but found that the strange man rolled over and was crushed to death by his body.
