Chapter 335 Chapter 338 Filling the audience
Shen Mu concentrated his attention on eavesdropping, and was immediately attracted by a woman's voice from the building on the left, "Princess Xiuning should understand now. The owner knows Li Tianfan himself, and has been in close contact with him, so he is very close." Li Mi may be provided with horses and equipment. Although the chief steward and some deacons strongly oppose it, repeated persuasion is ineffective."

Li Gang's voice sounded: "This matter is not trivial, I don't know if Madam is here, does your husband know?"

The woman said affirmatively: "Of course, the master asked Yuan'er to take this opportunity to report and discuss with you. I hope that our relationship with the nobles will not be damaged because of the owner's foolishness."

Shen Mu exclaimed secretly, in the absence of evidence, at least it could make Li Xiuning have doubts.

Dou Wei's Shen Xiong's voice said: "This is indeed strange, because as far as we know, Li Mishi is the culprit who secretly supported the four bandits to disturb the south. Why did the four bandits come to attack the ranch again?"

Yuan'er said calmly: "Master has also analyzed this matter, it may be a gimmick, so I strongly remind Yuan'er to inform everyone as soon as possible, because this is most likely a foolish act by the owner of the venue under the instigation of Li Tianfan. "

Dou Wei said: "Princess Xiuning, no matter what, we must immediately strengthen our defenses."

Li Xiuning said indifferently: "Those who come are not kind, and those who are kind don't come. If Sister Xun is really involved in this matter, she must know our strength well, so she can't prevent it even if she wants to."

Shen Mu heard that she hated and loved at the same time, this beauty still behaved so calmly under such circumstances, no wonder the Li family entrusted her with a heavy responsibility to negotiate with Shang Xiuxun.

Li Xiuning continued: "Sister Yuan, can you inform the chief manager on your behalf, and have a secret and detailed discussion with each other?"

Shen Mu applauded in his heart, as long as Li Xiuning sees Shang Zhen, he can immediately break through Yuaner's trick.

Unexpectedly, Yuan'er agreed immediately, and said: "Now Yuan'er will immediately send someone to inform the master that he is responsible for guarding the East Gorge. Unless it is an emergency, there should be no problem."

Then Yuan'er resigned, and Li Xiuning and the other three saw him off in person.

Shen Mu already knew Yuan'er's plot well.She thought to herself, taking advantage of this golden opportunity, why not hide in Li Xiuning's boudoir, and wait for her to come back... Hey!Thinking of this, my heart was full of fire, I didn't care about other things, so I flashed in.

Shen Mu skimmed up to the roof of the eaves and immediately hid himself.

Dou Wei's voice came to ask: "Princess, do you think Yuan'er's words are credible?"

Li Xiuning sighed: "Shang Xiuxun is such a despicable villain, but the heart of guarding against others is indispensable. Let's talk about everything after seeing Shang Zhen. Hmm! Is there any way to find out Yuan'er's background?"

Li Gangdao: "There is no other way..."

The voice suddenly cut off, and when Shen Mu was thinking about his past, a clear male voice sounded from the opposite eaves: "My friend broke into Huanlvyuan at night, what can I do for you?"

Shen Mu was taken aback, although he was distracted by eavesdropping on Li Xiuning and the others, but the other party came so silently, it can be seen that he is a master.The sound is a bit familiar.Looking up, it was Li Xiuning's lover Chai Shao.

When Shen Mu slipped to the ground, there was a sound of wind, and he was already surrounded.

Dou Wei and Li Gang cut off his way, and Li Xiuning also approached with lightning, encircling him in the shape of the two finished characters.

When he was complaining in his heart, Chai Shao fell beside Li Xiuning and smiled proudly: "Friends are easy to come, if they are easy to leave, will our Li family still have the face to see friends from the world?"

If Chai Shao was not present, Shen Mu could settle the matter as long as he revealed his identity and explained his purpose of coming.

But at this time, when facing his rival in love, he became angry for no reason, no matter how cowardly he refused to get out in this way.

But this time it was indeed a bad move, because it was unexpected that Chai Shao would hide himself and secretly protect Li Xiuning.

As the wind spread, more than a dozen of Li Xiuning's guards appeared on the eaves and between the forest houses, forming a watertight outer circle around him, most of them were holding bows and crossbows.

Li Xiuning's sword was pointing at the vital acupoint on his chest in front of him, bursts of icy sword energy invaded, and he said coldly: "Which party sent you?"

"Chong!"

At this moment, Chai Shao pulled out two armguard steel rods on his back, one long and one short. The long one was three feet long, and the short one was half a foot long.

His movements are chic and beautiful, and at the same time, he is imposing, which arouses Shen Mu's strange mentality of being competitive.

Dou Wei used a heavy iron staff, crossed his chest, and cut off the retreat on the right rear side, making people feel that he must be taking a wide-open and wide-open path, and he is good at fighting hard.

Li Gang held two swords, but the sharpness of the sword was a bit worse than that of Li Xiuning, and his martial arts was the weakest among the four.

Shen Mu took a deep breath, suppressed the anxiety in his heart, tightened his vocal cords, and said with a strange smile in a high-pitched voice: "I have come here this time on an adventure, and I have something to tell you. Is Princess Xiuning interested in hearing it?" ?”

Li Xiuning's beautiful eyes made eye contact with him, and a feeling of familiarity suddenly surged in her heart, she asked in surprise, "Have we met before?"

Chai Shao snorted coldly: "If Your Excellency is willing to put down your weapon and surrender, we will listen to what you say."

Shen Mu felt angry when he thought of Chai Shao's arrogant attitude towards him and Xu Ziling that day, and the look of looking down on them.

Especially now that he and Li Xiuning are standing side by side, with an intimate demeanor, they are both talented and beautiful, like a match made in heaven, it would be strange if there is no jealousy and hatred in their hearts.

He even gave birth to the mentality of trying his best to break through the siege and not caring about anything about Li Xiuning, so as to see how this kid can protect Li Xiuning.

Li Gang said in a deep voice: "If a friend refuses to be arrested without a fight, don't blame the sword for having no eyes."

Shen Mu sighed, and said slowly, "I'll leave after I finish speaking, can Princess Xiuning take a step to speak?"

Dou Wei smiled and said to the others: "This guy sees us as big fools like him!"

Li Xiuning and Chai Shao looked at each other and smiled.

Shen Mu originally wanted to do good and evil to expose Yuan'er's conspiracy, but when he saw Li Xiuning and Chai Shao eye to eye, he immediately put this idea behind him.Also seeing Li Xiuning's beautiful eyes, which are as clear and moving as autumn water under her long brows, cast an affectionate gaze on Chai Shao, she suddenly felt an incomprehensible feeling of being cheated, and pulled out her sword with a sound of "Zheng!" , laughed and said: "Just do it! But don't regret it!"

At the same time, Li Xiuning and the others felt the domineering sword energy coming from him, and hurriedly mobilized their true energy to resist.

Chai Shaoqi said: "My friend has extraordinary skills, he is not an unknown person in the world, why did he sneak up here and dare not show his name to others?"

Shen Mu's sharp eyes fell on Li Xiuning's pretty face, which made him dream about, and he said calmly: "Is it unnecessary to ask about Princess Xiuning's future husband? If I could tell the name, wouldn't I have said it long ago?" !"

The four of them changed color at the same time.You must know that Chai Shao's identity at this moment is a secret, so that he can take the responsibility of secretly protecting Li Xiuning.If Shang Xiuxun knew about it, the relationship between the two parties would immediately undergo an embarrassing change.

However, this is still a problem that can be explained. The most terrible thing is that if Shen Mu is from Li Mi's side, then their true strength will be revealed.

Li Xiuning glanced at murderous intent, and said coldly: "How do you know his identity?"

When Ruo personally admitted to Shen Mu that Chai Shao was her future husband-in-law, Shen Mu smiled bitterly and said, "There are many things in this world that are difficult to explain. But I am by no means from Li Miyou or the ranch. If the princess can Have a reasonable talk with me, I return with a valuable message, and I leave immediately."

Chai Shao shook the long and short armguard steel rods, and the murderous aura immediately permeated the audience, and he smiled casually: "Is it so easy to go? If you don't give up your sword and surrender immediately, you can see the truth under your hands!"

Dou Wei on the back side also shouted: "If you have the guts to come, don't be so reckless and just want to run."

Shen Mu sighed bitterly in his heart, if he changed his mind to confess his identity at this time, he would wait until he was afraid of Chai Shao, and would not do it even if he killed him, nodded and said: "Swords really have no eyes, everyone be careful."

There was a sudden sound of wind, and Dou Wei's heavy steel staff slammed down on the head from the back, kicking off the battle.

When Dou Wei hit him with a stick from his back, Chai Shao activated at the same time, and the long and short armguard steel sticks shot towards Shen Mu's face and chest like two bolts of lightning, murderous, extremely powerful, and merciless , covering the opponent tightly with vigor, teaching Shen Mu to make a reckless move first no matter whether he counterattacks or escapes.

Although Li Gang was a step late, he also attacked the enemy from the other side, with the double blades in his hands cutting up and down, cutting the neck and piercing the waist, extremely vicious, with a fierce attacking style, it is hard to imagine that he is usually a leisurely and elegant scholar demeanor.

Only Li Xiuning took half a step back, only sending out sword energy with the tip of the sword to prevent Shen Mu from breaking out from her direction, but did not join the battle.

At this time, Shen Mu swayed from side to side like a swimming fish, and then slashed fiercely with his sword, "shua, shua, shua" three consecutive sword strikes, and suddenly the yellow light flew across the sky, and hit Chai Shao's two armguard steel rods and Dou Wei's steel rod one after another. .

Chai Shao and Dou Wei felt chills at the same time.

They were originally sure-fire moves, but under Shen Mu's strange movements, it was as if the other party was clearly in front of them, but they suddenly turned into a phantom with no substance, and they couldn't grasp his position at all.

Then Huang Mang was in full swing, and the saber energy was rampant, Chai Shao and Dou Wei had already been slashed by Shen Mu.

"Dang! Dang! Dang!" Three tremors sounded, and the strange and incomparable spiral force was like an astonishing icy-cold whirlwind, penetrating through the body with the contact points of the swords, and attacking the lungs.

The two of them never thought that Shen Mu was so powerful, and his whole body was shaken violently.

Chai Shao's skill is two steps higher than Dou Wei's, he only swayed twice, and then stood firm, while the latter snorted and fell back.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Li Xiuning waved her slender hand, and sprinkled a sword flower towards Shen Muyin.

Shen Mu laughed out loud, arched his back, and slammed into Dou Wei who was retreating, not only pulling Li Xiuning away from his sword temporarily, but also causing Chai Shao's attack to land in the air.

After meeting each other a few times, Shen Mu took the initiative back into his hands, allowing him to advance to attack and retreat to slip, and shouted: "Stop!"

Li Xiuning and Chai Shao were afraid that he would take the opportunity to kill Dou Wei or Li Gang, so they kept their weapons and stopped.

"Chong!"

Shen Mu put the sword back into its sheath, but he himself was still like a sword out of the sheath, so that no one dared to underestimate it.His majestic eyes swept across the crowd, and the fake face that didn't match his size and eyes showed a smile, and said lightly: "Everyone should know that if I want to harm the princess, I don't need to hide my head and show my tail. Come down and have a sip of hot tea, let's chat slowly!"

Li Xiuning and the others were all stunned.

Chai Shao sneered and said: "Assuming your Excellency can't die, let's drink some hot tea with you and chat!" Tanshou took Li Xiuning's jade hand and quickly backed away.

Immediately, Shen Mu was furious and stayed on the spot, not knowing that Li Gang and Dou Wei also moved away.

Chai Shao shouted: "Fire the arrow!"

Amidst the sound of "swish", the soldiers of the Li family who were all over the eaves and in the garden drew their crossbows at the same time and shot arrows at Shen Mu.

Chai Shao also let go of Li Xiuning's hand, and the two arm guards shot at Shen Mu like lightning, with extremely fierce force.

Shen Mu came back to his senses in an instant, and shot straight up before the powerful arrow pierced his body.Li Xiuning screamed coquettishly, and when all the arrows and arm guards were in vain, he followed the sword and chased after Shen Mu with his tail in his mouth.

Shen Mu, however, was unafraid, and shot the lightning with his left hand towards the top of the old tree on the left, just before Li Xiuning's long sword reached him, moved sideways, and sank into the darkness in the distance.Seeing that Chai Shao and the others were stunned, there was nothing they could do.

Shen Mu left Huanlv Garden and came to the top of a bell tower, feeling sore and astringent in his heart, he sighed and fled towards the castle wall.Using God's escape, he sneaked out of the inner castle, ran across the house, and swept towards the direction of the outer city wall.When I saw Yuan'er and the courtyard of the ghost meeting last night, my heart moved and I turned inside.

The voice came faintly from the main house, but no lights came out.

Shen Mu crouched in the garden, and after an extremely conflicted struggle in his heart, he still couldn't help touching it, jumped onto a tree next to the main house, and looked in through the window.

From this angle, I happened to see Yuan'er and another man sitting on a chair by the window facing other people who were out of sight, and there should be no less than ten people listening to their voices.

Only someone said: "The most exciting part of our whole plan this time is the internal and external cooperation, so that we can catch it by surprise. And there is a young master who is secretly presiding over it, so I don't have to worry about the Pegasus Ranch."

The man laughed and said: "Teacher Chen, please don't praise me. I, Li Tianfan, are just a young man who is waving the flag and shouting. The one who holds the big flag still has to rely on Military Division Shen."

Shen Mu's scalp tingled immediately, and only then did he realize the seriousness of the matter.

Shen Junshi is naturally Shen Luoyan, and Li Tianfan is Li Mi's son.Just from the fact that the two of them are sitting opposite each other, it has been strongly and powerfully explained that Li Mi will spare no effort to seize the Pegasus Ranch to deal with Li Xiuning.

Sure enough, Shen Luoyan's coquettish voice came from the house: "Young master is too humble! Luoyan is ashamed. Now that just after Hai, Shang Xiuxun should have become a fish caught in Cao's net, and the side of the inner castle should also There is movement."

Li Tianfan smiled and said: "Shang Xiuxun has always admired himself alone, and he doesn't pay attention to the people of the world. In terms of intelligence, he can't compare with Shen Junshi. Why don't Shen Junshi take advantage of the time and report to you in detail later? The details of the cooperation."

This person speaks decently, showing that the tiger father really has no dogs, and he is a figure who can lead the group.

Shen Luoyan was about to speak, when the sound of birdsong could be heard from the roof in the distance, Li Tianfan immediately said: "Li Xiuning was tricked, everything is going according to plan."

Shen Mu couldn't help smiling wryly in his heart.Can I really ignore Li Xiuning's safety?
The pasture is in the wilderness near the mouth of the gorge.Shen Mu hid on a big tree and concentrated on the movements of Li Tianfan, Shen Luoyan and a group of 15 people who were fifty steps away. He watched them change into ranch attire. One of them was an old man whose figure and appearance looked a bit like Shang Zhen. , and even dressed up as Shang Zhen, unless someone knows him well, he has to look closely to distinguish the fake, otherwise he will easily deceive him.

Seeing him lift the pipe at this time, snoring and puffing out clouds, even Shen Mu wanted to scream in his heart.

The others were pretending to be Shang Zhen's guards. With outsiders like Li Xiuning and Yuan'er covering it up, it's no wonder they didn't fall for it.

The most powerful part of this plan is to lure Li Xiuning away from the castle, and Li Xiuning is unable to lead a large number of subordinates to the meeting. The fake Shang Zhen suddenly launched a attack with the cooperation of Li Tianfan, Shen Luoyan and other experts, and the chance of success is really great.

The one who pretended to be Shang Zhen was the person called Mr. Chen, besides Li Tianfan and Shen Luoyan, this person was also the most powerful in martial arts.

In addition, there is a big man named Bai in his thirties and a thin man named Ma Fang, both of whom seem to be particularly skilled in martial arts among this group of people.The former has double axes on his back, while the latter has a long sword on his waist.

The other ten people were between 25 and [-] years old, and all of them had bulging temples. Just because they could climb mountains and sneak into pastures, they knew they were mediocre.

Shen Luoyan's expression was indifferent, she had lost a little weight, but she was still so beautiful, she was covering her hair with a hat, and she was dressed in men's attire, which was attractive.

There were horses neighing from time to time, and the pasture was quiet.

Now the people in the ranch are concentrated in the gorges and castles on both sides. There are only a dozen people guarding the ranch, which looks like an undefended place. In addition, this is a sparsely forested area near the East Gap, and it is a night full of stars and moons. What happened, no one will know.

The whole conspiracy was so seamless, the only flaw was that Shen Mu was watching from the sidelines.

As Shen Luoyan walked, he explained the time and method of cooperation in a simple and concise way, when Li Xiuning came.
