The Classic of Mountains and Seas Through Ancient and Modern Times

Chapter 16 You Stink

The stars in the night sky are twinkling, and the night is the best curtain to hide the ugliness.The man in white lay alone on the roof looking at the night sky, with a lazy expression and slightly frowned handsome eyebrows.

Footsteps came from behind, and it didn't take long to see Hua Shuo walking over.However, the man in white didn't pay attention to him, but still looked at the stars in the sky and remained silent.

"Miss Lu left just like that, aren't you worried?" Hua Shuo asked suddenly.

Li Mu sneered: "It's troublesome!" After finishing speaking, he fell off the roof and walked out of the courtyard without looking back.

Hua Shuo hurriedly followed after seeing this: "Mr. Li, where are you going? Are you going to chase Miss Lu back?"

Unexpectedly, it would be fine if Hua Shuo didn't ask, but when he asked, Li Mu immediately gave him a sharp look, and looked at the other party with a gloomy face: "If you keep arguing, I'll cut your tongue off." He continued to walk forward with a murderous face.

Damn stinky woman, don't let him meet her again, or he will definitely tear her into pieces and eat her up.

Seeing Li Mu go farther and farther, Hua Shuo curled his lips in fright. He didn't go to the village or shop at night, so he went to see Miss Lu, or to see the scenery.Thinking of Lu Jiaqi asking him to help Li Mu take the medicine, he couldn't help sighing: It's really awkward.

Hua Shuo didn't want to participate in this kind of thing, but it would be a pity to meet a Fushan disciple who didn't hug Jin's thigh, thinking that Hua Shuo hurriedly chased after him.

The two walked for about two or three hours, and the sky was getting brighter.At first Hua Shuo thought that Li Mu was walking aimlessly, but soon found out that was not the case.When the sky was bright, the two of them also entered the city, and unfortunately they happened to catch up with the morning market.

It's just that the atmosphere in the city today seems to be not very good. Not only are there few pedestrians on the street, but their faces are also very solemn, and they even deliberately dodge when they see them.

It's not surprising that Li Mu didn't come into contact with humans often, so it's not surprising that he couldn't tell, but Hua Shuo could tell, thinking that yesterday's morning market was bustling with activity, but today it has become deserted, seeing them evasively as if seeing a ghost, Not surprising and difficult.

In the end, Hua Shuo simply pulled a big brother and asked what happened?Unexpectedly, the eldest brother begged for mercy after being pulled by Hua Shuo, and then repeatedly confirmed that his life was not in danger before he said: "It was just dawn today, and just as the city gate opened, a man ran in in a panic, saying it was the city gate. There was a mummified corpse outside, and people from the yamen went to check it out early in the morning, and they heard that it was a woman, and she was parked in the yamen now! It was a terrible death."

"Mummy?" Hua Shuo murmured.

Li Mu frowned and asked, "How do I get to the Yamen?"

"Just ahead, go straight ahead, turn left and the big red gate with stone lions is the Yamen," the man replied, "Do you two know that girl?"

When he asked Hua Shuo like this, he immediately thought of Lu Jiaqi, and his heart tightened a little in disbelief, it should be impossible!
Seeing that Li Mu had gone far away at some point, that direction was clearly the direction to go to the Yamen.Hua Shuo hurried to catch up: "Mr. Li, do you suspect that Miss Lu was killed?"

"En!" Li Mu continued to speed up his pace.

But Hua Shuo sighed recklessly: "It turns out that Mr. Li cares so much about Miss Lu. If Miss Lu finds out, she will be very moved. Now that things have happened, I just hope that nothing will happen to Miss Lu."

There was a chattering person behind him, and Li Mu really wanted to use magic to seal his mouth, but as soon as he raised his hand, he remembered Lu Jiaqi.In the end, he could only grit his teeth and reply, "I just want to see how miserable her death is."

Damn girl, isn't your mouth always hard?If you die, you really deserve it.

Hua Shuo: "..."

When the two arrived at the gate of the yamen, there were many people surrounded inside and outside the gate. Hua Shuo saw Li Mu's frowning, decisively pushed through the crowd and rushed in. After a while, he ran out and looked at Li Mu excitedly. Li Mu: "Thank God, it's not Miss Lu!"

"Yeah!" Li Mu responded lightly, and then looked at the corner of the street.

Hua Shuo: ...Brother, what does your disappointed expression mean?
Following Li Mu's gaze, it didn't take long to see Lu Jiaqi walking towards her with a bag on her back, eating candied haws. When she saw Li Mu who was looking at her coldly, she immediately turned her head and ran away.

Li Mu snorted coldly, leaving a white afterimage in front of Lu Jiaqi: "Run when you see me, do you want to die?"

Lu Jiaqi held her bag in front of her and looked at the other party vigilantly: "Li Mu, I warn you, don't come close. If you come close, I will be rude to you." If I didn't kill yesterday, I want to do it again today. hands?
Li Mu's expression froze when she heard the words, and then she looked at her mockingly: "Oh, I really want to know how you are going to be rude to me?" Under the calm face was the feeling of wanting to kill her. When I was in the mummified body, I felt ridiculous when I saw Lu Jiaqi's defensive expression at the moment.

Before Lu Jiaqi could speak, Hua Shuo hurried over and grabbed Lu Jiaqi's hand: "Miss Lu, what are you doing?"

"What to do?" Lu Jiaqi pulled Hua Shuo back, "What can I do? He's going to kill me, so if I don't hide from such a narrow-minded person, will I go up to die?" said Lu Jiaqi He tilted his head to show Hua Shuo the injury on his neck.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she showed her scars, Li Mu stepped in front of Lu Jiaqi and grabbed her collar to check the injuries: "Who hurt you?"

"Pretend what?" Lu Jiaqi patted his hand away, "Isn't it you?"

This time Li Mu was not in a hurry to speak, but Hua Shuo looked at Lu Jiaqi hesitantly: "Miss Lu, is there some misunderstanding here? Mr. Li was with me all the time yesterday, so it stands to reason that I don't have time to hurt you. "

"Huh?" Now it was Lu Jiaqi's turn to be surprised. If it wasn't Li Mu last night, then who was it?Thinking of landing, Lu Jiaqi secretly glanced at Li Mu.But he saw the other party looking aside with a sullen face, exuding a sense of grievance all over his body.

Hey? !It's an illusion!
Hua Shuo asked again: "Miss Lu, what happened? What evidence do you have that Mr. Li hurt you." He believed that Lu Jiaqi was definitely not the kind of person who wronged others indiscriminately.

Lu Jiaqi hesitated for a while when she heard the words, and finally took a peek at Li Mu and recounted yesterday's experience: "At that time, Li Mu had already strangled my neck, and I felt like I was going to die because I couldn't breathe. The burden, the monster was beaten away by a golden light. After that, I passed out, and when I woke up, I felt that it was very dangerous there, so I hurried into the city."

"You want your soul?" Li Mu paused, but he didn't say anything but felt something was wrong in his heart.It stands to reason that Lu Jiaqi ate the heart of the abdominal worm, and no monster can hurt her.But the wound on her neck was not fake. The most suspicious thing was that monster dared to pretend to be him and commit an attack.

There are many monsters who eat souls in the demon world, but there are very few people who are not afraid of the heart of bellyworms. So it seems that the monster power of that guy is stronger than himself?
"The mummy just now also lost its soul," Hua Shuo frowned, "but at the same time she lost her soul, she was also drained of energy, so I suspect that the monster that Miss Lu met and the perpetrator of that mummy It's a person."

"Mummy?" Lu Jiaqi's face changed, and she looked at Hua Shuo and Li Mu in horror, "Mummy, what kind of corpse?" Speaking of which, the ancient monsters are really terrifying, they can turn a living person into a mummy overnight. no.

Hua Shuo also told Lu Jiaqi about the mummy, and Lu Jiaqi looked at Li Mu instinctively after hearing this, "So there are monsters around here? Then do you have any ideas?" After saying this, Lu Jiaqi looked at the first Still Hua Shuo.

Both of these two people have some magic skills, and Li Mu is from Fushan. According to the character of Fushan Immortal, they should all take the affairs of the world as their own responsibility, and it is impossible to disregard the life and death of the people.

However, Li Mu is always uncertain and unpredictable, so he might as well rely on Hua Shuo.

Sure enough, Hua Shuo listened to Lu Jiaqi's question, and immediately said with a look of resignation: "Our responsibility to eliminate demon masters is to protect the people from the harm of monsters. If I encounter that monster, it will be a crime against me." I'm going to kill him too."

I have to say that Lu Jiaqi wanted to applaud him after hearing these words, but soon Hua Shuo laughed dryly: "But now I don't know if that monster is still around here..." After speaking, Hua Shuo looked at Li Mu, "Master Li, what are your plans?"

Li Mu looked at Lu Jiaqi: "Come here!"

"Oh!" Lu Jiaqi responded and walked over.But Li Mu pulled the collar and sniffed it for a long time, and his face became bloodshot at a sudden, red like a tomato: "You...you..."

"You stink!" Li Mu said bluntly, "But the smell of the monster is still there." The man turned around and left.

As for Lu Jiaqi, her face was still a little red, but at this moment she was red with embarrassment, shit!It's too much, damn Li Mu, how can it be possible to take a hot bath every day under such conditions?
But Hua Shuo said excitedly: "So that monster hasn't left the city yet?" This is also a rare experience for a monster extermination master.Thinking of people, he ran to chase Li Mu: "Mr. Li, wait for me!"

Li Mu has never been someone who likes to meddle in other people's affairs, especially when it comes to human beings.The reason why he stayed to take care of this this time was because he wanted to see what was so bold, pretending to be him to hurt people?
