Chapter 57

Even deeper at night, with a feathery moon in the sky.A crow stood on a dead branch of a catalpa tree and kept yelling, making the person feel nervous.

With a small fire in front of him, Shu Jin was sitting under a tree drinking, thinking that the bird was so frustrating, he picked up a stone and threw it at it.

After a few beeps, it finally stopped.

There were a few deep chuckles in the darkness.

"Who made Junior Brother unhappy?" A figure gradually came out from the dark forest.

The person who came was a man in his thirties, wearing a bamboo hat on his head and wearing a short jacket of a farmer in the mountains, but he didn't look shabby.I can't see the face clearly, but I feel that the eyes under the hat are brighter and more energetic.

"Senior brother Shu Xuan is here." Shu Jin threw a bottle of wine at him, and the man caught it firmly.

"Are you all asleep?" Shu Jin asked.

"Ah."

Shu Xuan is a top-notch expert in the Mo sect other than the giant, and was ordered to secretly protect the young prince.

He eats and sleeps in the open every day.On weekdays, even when the master fell asleep, he would just find a corner or a tree to sleep and wait for orders.

Among Mohist disciples, Shu Xuan is the one Juzi trusts the most.

"Brother, you have worked hard." Shu Jin smiled, and all the disciples of Shu's generation respected this senior brother, "I found you a good wine, drink some, and take your time."

Shu Xuan raised his neck and took a few sips, then smiled slightly: "It really is a good wine. You are so smart today, why were you so ungrateful a few days ago?"

Shu Jin knew that he was talking about not protecting that little girl properly.

Shu Jin approached the senior brother, and asked in a low voice: "Senior brother, you are secretly protecting Xiao Lizi every day, so you must know something. Is the giant serious about that girl?"

Shu Xuan took a sip of wine, squinted at his junior brother, and snorted coldly.

"Brother?" Shu Jin asked modestly.

"You boy is not as clever as Shu Wei, so he can only fight. Shu Wei is already in charge of the Red Gate." Shu Xuan said lightly.The Red Gate is an intelligence system specially set up by the Mohists.

"Shu Wei? What does it have to do with him? Why did the brother mention him?" Shu Jin was very dissatisfied with Shu Wei who was the same age.

"Shu Wei didn't know the inside story, but he knew that he wanted to congratulate the giant on his wedding, and he also brought a generous gift to his wife." Shu Xuan took another sip, "However, the giant asked me to return it, saying that he appreciates it."

"Pfft! Suili!" Shu Jin said indignantly, "Shu Wei can do such a flattering thing! I have always looked down on this kid!"

Shu Xuan kicked his junior brother: "He is more humane than you, you have to learn."

"Yes." After being kicked hard by her senior brother, Shu Jin became honest.

"How did you deal with that pig that bullied your wife last time?" Shu Xuan asked lightly.

"I gave the gangster a few taels of silver, caught him and beat him up." Shu Jin said, "The giant won't allow me to do anything, for fear of killing him."

"Hmph. It's okay." Shu Xuan finished his drink and looked up at the moonlight.

It's the fourth watch.When the master fell asleep, it was time for him to open his eyes.

Shu Xuan threw the bottle back to Shu Jin, "Juzi is just such a lady, if you neglect again, then I won't be able to keep you."

"How dare I..." Shu Jin said aggrievedly as she caught the empty wine bottle.

Shu Xuan raised his foot and left, sighing, "Go to the watch."

A long whistle came from the forest.

Shu Jin poured the bottle down, and there really wasn't a drop left.Overhead, the dejected bird flew back again, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
