At this moment, Mu Chengfang was truly isolated and helpless. Sun Jin also could not pull away, and since he was being attacked from two sides and Mu Chengfang did not know any martial arts, he did not know how to resist.
She took a small step back and felt the knife at her waist. Thinking of the techniques he had read online, he decided to give it a try.
However, she was not afraid. She only stared at the few men in black. But in her heart, she was thinking, there's nothing to be afraid of after death.
These people had injured Sun Jin, and were approaching him aggressively, yet they spoke about him for no reason, causing Mu Chengfang to be unable to see through them. But the most important thing right now was the injuries on Sun Jin's body. She walked to Sun Jin's side and said: "Don't move, let me see your wound."
Sun Jin suddenly pushed her away, "Scram."
This time, Mu Chengfang was completely baffled.
She did not do anything wrong, why was Sun Jin angry at her?
"If you really hate me so much, then why did you save me just now?"
It was really strange.
Sun Jin pursed his lips, how could he tell her that he was afraid that he had Long Yang's good points? This was all because he treated Mu Chengfang too special. Especially to the point where even he himself felt somewhat afraid. Not only that, but he also felt that kind of feeling in his heart.
This feeling was unprecedented and made him feel reverence. With his identity, he simply couldn't love a man. If they were to be discovered, then everything that had happened over the years would be for naught.
Sun Jin turned his head, and did not dare to look at Mu Chengfang again.
"No matter what you think, since you were injured because of me, then let me help you look after your injuries. When the time comes, even if you don't tell me to scram, I will still leave." Her original intention was not to be too willing to interact with Sun Jin. She had a nagging feeling that Sun Jin was just too complicated. Forget about the great disparity in status, even when they were getting along, she wouldn't be able to see through his thoughts.
Such a person was too dangerous for her.
Sooner or later, she would return to the modern era. If that was the case, then why bother asking for trouble in ancient times?
Sun Jin did not move again.
Mu Chengfang was just about to open Sun Jin's wound, when she suddenly heard some sizzling sounds. When she turned around, she saw Zhang Tu Hu standing on top of a tree, staring at the two of them.
The moonlight hung high in the sky, but this was still the outskirts. The chirping of cicadas could still be heard. He didn't know why, but the moment he turned his head back, Mu Chengfang felt as if his surroundings had gone quiet, and the Zhang Tu Hu's eyes that were staring at them still shone with a creepy light.
A bad premonition welled up in Mu Chengfang's heart, and she wanted to pull Sun Jin along and leave. She had only half moved his hand when he felt his neck sink before she fainted.
The corner of Zhang Tu Hu's mouth curved into a sneer as he dragged the two of them away.
Hanshan County.
Ji Mu Lang went around outside in a big circle, but was unable to find Mu Chengfang. When he returned to the yamen, he realized that Sun Jin seemed to have also disappeared, so he went to find Zheng Hang and interrogated him.
Zheng Hang remembered that Sun Jin had something he needed help with, and adding that his relationship with Mu Chengfang seemed to be quite good, Zheng Hang casually said: "Lord Ji does not need to worry, Master must have something that he needs Young Noble Little Chen for. He might be back after a while."
Ji Mulang knew that Sun Jin and Mu Chengfang had been very close these past few days, but he still couldn't calm down. Even though Zheng Hang was sure that Mu Chengfang and Sun Jin would definitely be fine after they left, he still continued to look around.
He always had a sense of propriety, and knew that Sun Jin highly valued the new corona, so he had to deal with Ji Mu Lang first and go out to look for the best way. Sun Jin had not returned yet, if he had not found some new clues, then he had met with some trouble.
Zheng Hang hurriedly left the courthouse, and before he had taken a few steps, he discovered that there was someone following him.
It was already late at night, and there was no one on the streets. It was even more eerie in this kind of alley.
"Come out." Zheng Hang said coldly, his hand grabbing the sword at his waist, preparing to take precautions.
With that, a few black-clothed men jumped down from the wall. According to Zheng Hang's experience, these people must have killed before. Their bodies reeked of blood and the swords in their hands did not seem to be clean.
"You are assassins?"
The leader of the men in black snorted. He no longer wanted to waste any more words and directly attacked.
Zheng Hang thought that those following him was one, but he didn't expect that there were at least four or five people jumping out from the alley.
All of a sudden, they started fighting in the narrow alleyway. Although Zheng Hang's martial arts were strong and he had the upper hand in just a few moves, he was still unable to resist the sinister attacks. One of the black-clothed men poisoned him and Zheng Hang was easily defeated.
The victor was the king, and the loser was the bandit. Zheng Hang also had no reason to struggle, but, Sun Jin had not fallen yet.
So, he raised his head, stared at the men in black, and asked with a stern voice: "You guys … You touched the adults? "
The leading black-clothed man sneered: "You're talking about Zhangsun Xujin? "Hehe, then don't worry, I won't dare to touch him. Otherwise, I wouldn't have come to kill you."
Zheng Hang heaved a sigh of relief, with his sword supporting on the ground, he knelt down on one knee. He clutched his chest, black and purple blood trickling from the corner of his mouth. After getting the answer he wanted, he wiped the blood from his mouth and tried to stand up.
Just as the leading man in black was about to land his sword tip, footsteps were suddenly heard coming from the entrance of the alleyway.
"Someone's coming. Let's go!"
With this order, four or five men in black disappeared from the alley.
Zheng Hang couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to fall to the ground. He happened to see who it was before he fell.
The person who came was Lu Kang who he had been following for two or three days. At this moment, Lu Kang was bringing a group of servants over. After he saw it clearly, he fell down.
The next day, the sky was bright.
Mu Chengfang woke up after smelling the smell of blood. When she opened her eyes, he found herself inside an unfamiliar woodshed. Her hands were tied with hemp rope. It seemed that if she wanted to move, some of the straw on the hemp rope would easily cut her wrist.
Sun Jin had also been locked together with her. With a slight movement, Sun Jin woke up.
Mu Chengfang had her back facing him, so she couldn't clearly see what was happening to him. She only felt that he seemed to be without support, as if he would collapse at any moment.
"This is …" Mu Chengfang wanted to ask where they were, but when she thought about what happened last night, she stopped herself.
A sharp pain came from his neck, Mu Chengfang immediately thought about the Zhang Tu Hu who was under the tree staring at the two of them. She didn't know if it was just a psychological effect, but she happened to hear someone chopping pork outside the woodshed.
As the ear-piercing sound rang out, it was obvious that the pork meat had already been minced into minced meat.
Mu Chengfang moved, and could only ask: "Are you alright?"
Sun Jin replied with a "Okay", but this time, there was a bit of weakness in his tone.
He's still injured, Mu Chengfang thought as she looked around. She had always been calm in the face of trouble and understood that there was no best way. The best way was simply to escape first.
"I think we were kidnapped by the Zhang Tu Hu." This sentence was something even Mu Chengfang herself felt very awkward. Being kidnapped by a butcher was something that could not be seen in TV dramas. But after this matter, the Zhang Tu Hu must have a huge problem.
Sun Jin moved, then said: "Right now, the most important thing is to get out of this place."
He was calm in the face of danger, he actually thought the same as Mu Chengfang!
"I know, but we're trapped here, and this place is outside of the Hushan County. I wonder if the yamen's people will be able to find us." Mu Chengfang frowned: "I'm afraid if we want to leave, we have to think of our own ways."
Sun Jin thought, there's also Zheng Hang. But now that he was heavily injured and his hands were tied, contacting Zheng Hang became a huge problem.
The two of them remained silent. At this time, the Zhang Tu Hu opened the door and entered. He stood at the doorway with a knife in his hand, looking down on the two of them, yet he refused to take a step into the woodshed.
Mu Chengfang asked directly: "Since you are a butcher who sells pork, we have no grievances or grievances, why did you capture us here?"
"Without enmity? Heh! Don't think I don't know that you two have been sneaking up on me every day. Have you seen my wife's body? In any case, the day of your deaths is soon going to come, so I'll tell you the truth. "
The voice of the Zhang Tu Hu gradually grew deeper, as if he was recalling a memory. His hand was firmly gripping onto the blade, and his entire shoulder began to tremble violently.
