Chapter 355

"That's right... Let's leave the tunnel quickly!"

"... do you want to take this boy with you?"

"What are you doing with him? It's just a nuisance! It's just... Who calls him unlucky, kill him!"

Under the weak oil lamp, the shadow of a raised knife is now on the stone wall and reflected into Xu Mingyi's eyes, which makes her pupils tighten suddenly.

At the same time, the Duke of the town has pulled out the knife behind Qin Wu!

The broadback broadsword flew out of the old man's hand sideways. With the sound of strong wind and knife ring, it steadily fell on the chest of the man holding the knife against the boy and knocked the man to the ground.

The man's long knife flew out of his hand and was caught by Wu Tsui, who flashed forward. The tip of the knife sank and inserted into the mud and stone under his feet.

"... let's go!" three men in black robes saw something bad and immediately fled to the inside.

When Qin Wuzheng was about to catch up, he only heard the justice of the town: "don't catch up!"

His goal is to save his grandson. Now that this goal is achieved, other business will be ignored. After all, it's hard to please to take care of it. Maybe it will also arouse the suspicion of the emperor.

He is used to being suspicious. If Wu Shisun is involved to help him catch the assassin secretly, he will be in trouble. He can't do the thing of vengeance.

Xu Mingyi has come forward and cut the rope tied to Xu Ming.

As soon as the cloth towel stuffed in the boy's mouth was pulled out, he threw himself around Xu Mingyi.

"Sister!"

The boy almost cried, "I almost died! I don't want to die at all!"

He hasn't been admitted to the No. 1 scholar yet. He hasn't seen Xu Mingyi get married. He only weaves half of the blanket secretly for Tianmu. He won't close his eyes even if he dies!

Listening to the slightly straightforward and timid words after escaping a robbery, Xu Mingyi, who was also red eyed, couldn't help laughing, patted the boy on the back and comforted: "don't be afraid, it's all right..."

With tears in his eyes, he saw his grandfather coming. Xu Mingshi immediately put up with his tears, let go of his sister, wiped his tears, stood up, lowered his head and said, "Grandpa is worried about the unfilial grandchildren.

"Good boy, just be fine." the Duke of the town patted his grandson on the shoulder: "let's go. If you have anything to say, go back."

Xu Ming answered "yes" and hurriedly said, "yes, and Tianmu!"

"Where is it?" Xu Mingyi asked immediately.

Xu Ming quickly pointed in a direction.

Wu Tsung strode over.

Behind a pile of debris beside the stone wall, there is a bamboo cage for catching animals.

One person and one bird looked at each other across the cage. The big bird jumped up and Wu Tsui was relieved.

At least I raised it myself. It's impossible to say I don't worry.

When he released the big bird from the cage, Wu Tsui saw that the long beak of the big bird was also wrapped with cloth.

I think those people think it's too noisy

No wonder it was so quiet just now. He even thought something had happened to the bird.

Wu Chiu crouched down and lifted his hand to take off the cloth. The big bird immediately called, which seemed full of sadness and grievance.

"Well..." Wu Tsui rarely showed his loving expression and stretched out his hand to touch the bald head of the big bird.

However, as soon as he stretched out his hand, he saw the big bird running towards the coming girl with wronged broken steps.

The big bird called again and rubbed the girl's dress with its long beak.

Xu Mingyi bent over and picked it up. Looking at the layer of bird hair falling from the cage, he couldn't help but feel distressed - both children have suffered.

"Tianmu lost so much hair to protect me." Xu Mingshi said guilt aside.

If those people were rude to him, Tianmu would flutter his wings in the cage and make a fierce attitude. After tossing back and forth, he would lose a cage of hair.

And when I first entered the cave.

At that time, Tianmu clearly had a chance to escape. He also wanted Tianmu to go out to report, but as soon as Tianmu saw that those people had knives in their hands, he immediately flew back to protect him.

Thinking of these, Xu Ming couldn't help but shed two tears.

Because he didn't want to be seen by his grandfather behind him, he took Tianmu from Xu Mingyi's arms, bowed his head and wiped his tears on the big bird.

Tianmu cried low and rubbed the boy's face, as if comforting, and seemed to have some silent guilt.

Looking at the picture of one person and one bird loving each other, Wu Tsui, who was half squatting there, stood up silently.

"Let's go." Xu Mingyi touched his brother's head.

Xu Mingshi nodded and the party soon got out of the cave.

"Let someone go to the emperor and say that he has found it." the Duke of the town asked Qin Wu to say, "go to meet Yun Liu and let them take people back to the barracks."

Qin Wu should go down.

Cui Shi, who had been waiting outside the mountain, saw someone coming out and hurried forward with his servant girl.

"Ming Shi!"

Seeing the boy holding the big bird appear in front of him, Cui immediately blushed his eyes: "is there any injury?!"

Xu Ming shook his head: "mother, I'm fine."

Those people did intend to kill him at first, but after hearing his identity, they changed their mind and wanted to keep him as a chip.

As for why Tianmu can be safe to the end——

Because those people saw that it was very fat, so they discussed baking it after the assassination to celebrate

So, who says it's not good to eat fat?

The party walked in the direction of the palace.

Cui Shi and Xu Mingyi walked ahead with Xu Mingshi, while the Duke of the town deliberately slowed down a few steps.

"When I was able to save the Ming Dynasty today, thanks to Wu Shisun's help, I thank you here -"

"You are welcome to raise your hand." Wu Chiu took the opportunity to say, "if you can use the younger generation in the future, you can speak."

After all, marrying a daughter-in-law is not a matter for two people. Many relationships around a daughter-in-law should also be taken into account.

In this regard, he is very sincere.

This made the Duke of the town very comfortable.

In addition to being comfortable, I even feel some regret.

——Why isn't that old guy Wu Jun here? It's time for the old guy to listen to it!

But it doesn't matter if you don't hear it this time. There must be opportunities in the future.

As an elder of the woman's family, the sense of superiority floated in my mind, and the old man was a little floating for a moment.

But in the twinkling of an eye, seeing the young man's serious and frank eyebrows and reflecting on his taking each other as a tool to show off, the old man couldn't help feeling a little uncomfortable in his conscience.

But at the thought of Dingnan Wang's face, the old man soon felt that there was no problem with his conscience.

"I'll buy you a drink when I'm free."

Hearing this invitation in a good mood, Wu Tsui immediately said, "I'm free at any time."

The Duke of the town stroked his beard with a smile: "I'll see you at the champion building when I return to Beijing the next day!"

……

After Xu Mingshi was sent all the way back to his residence, Cui's questions rang in his ear as soon as he swallowed a mouthful of hot tea.

"How could they be caught into the cave by those people?"

"Why did they catch you? What's the purpose?"
