Rebirth of the Return of Chu

Li Wenyu walked towards Pinwei Building angrily. Xiao Se had never seen him so nervous before, so he didn't dare to say a word and followed him closely.

But when we arrived at Pinwei Building, it was already empty, not even a single person in sight.

Li Wenyu was furious, his face turned blue: "Xiao Se, check for me, I want to see who is so bold as to take someone away from under my nose."

On the other side, Mu Chu and his companions had just arrived at a small border town, Qingliu Town. Due to the constant war, people's lives were miserable and there were refugees everywhere. Mu Chu felt uncomfortable watching them. He was obviously not a good person and had no ability, but he still couldn't bear to see the sufferings of the world.

I looked for several inns but they were all closed. Living a good life may be a luxury these days.

Finally, he found an inn in the deepest part of the town. Mu Chu looked up and saw the words "Yuelai Inn" written on the gate. For some reason, Mu Chu felt nervous and inexplicably felt that it was his.

When we entered the inn, we found that the owner and the waiter were all men, unlike in Changfeng Town.

Mu Chu thought, maybe he was overthinking it.

Mo Yu went to arrange the room, and the shopkeeper asked her, "Miss, where are you going?"

Mo Yu was a little cautious and said, "Let's go to the town ahead."

Unexpectedly, the shopkeeper shook his head and said, "Child, don't go forward. The town ahead is empty. There is no one. Nan Xiao's army will be here soon. It is too dangerous for you girls to go forward."

Mu Chu listened and asked, "What about our Qin Army? No one is resisting?"

The shopkeeper sighed and said, "How could we not care? They have tried their best. There is no reinforcement. Nan Xiao has 300,000 troops approaching, and Xi Yi is also taking the opportunity to cause trouble. We only have 150,000 troops. General Qin has tried to assassinate General Xi Yi~"

As if he couldn't bear to say the following words, the old man kept shaking his head with tears in his eyes.

Mu Chu replied: "Impossible, he is the general of Jin Feng and he won't die so easily."

The shopkeeper sighed and continued while pouring tea: "The news is true. The county magistrate has already notified the people in other towns to retreat. Now that the border has been lost, we can only wait for the emperor to send more troops for reinforcement."

Shen Sisi was listening at the side, and suddenly asked: "Then why don't you leave? Are you still running the inn?"

The shopkeeper was obviously stunned, then explained: "I am waiting for someone. I have a benefactor, but I have lost contact with him. I have no news from him, and I can't leave him behind."

When Mu Chu heard what the shopkeeper said, his heart was in turmoil and he wished he could go to the cliff to find him right away.

The three of them hurriedly finished their meal and went back to their room to rest. Because they were too tired, Mu Chu felt a little drowsy when he lay down. He had something on his mind and couldn't sleep well, so he got up before dawn.

As soon as I got up, I saw Shen Sisi was already packing her things. I greeted her, and Mo Yu also came in with a bundle: "Aunt, Master Mirror, I figured it out. It's to go around the back mountain here. You can't ride a horse. There are enemy troops patrolling in the mountains."

When Mu Chu heard that they were finally going to go in, he was a little excited: "Okay, let's go now."

When the three entered the mountain, the sky was just getting light and the mountains were filled with the calls of various birds and animals.

Mu Chu followed Mo Yu closely, and finally saw the cliff when the sun rose. The weeds on the edge of the cliff had fallen down. Mo Yu whispered, "It looks like this is the place."

Mu Chu felt her heart tightening. Suddenly, Shen Sisi pressed Mu Chu down and whispered in her ear, "Someone is here."

Just as he finished speaking, he saw a group of soldiers coming over, chatting as they walked, and laughing from time to time. Their words were mixed with dialect, and Mu Chu couldn't hear it very clearly.

The general meaning is that Qin Yuanyi must have fallen to his death. They searched for him under the cliff for many days but couldn't find him. His body had long been eaten by wild beasts.

Mu Chu didn't believe it. She always felt that the absence of a body proved that he was not dead.

After the patrolling officers and soldiers left, Shen Sisi asked, "Moyu, come down to the bottom of the cliff and take a look?"

Mo Yu tied the rope and quickly went down to the bottom of the cliff.

After a long time, Mo Yu didn't make any movement, and they didn't dare to call her, for fear of alerting the nearby officers and soldiers. After all, Mu Chu didn't know martial arts.

Just when they were worrying, the sound of sword fighting suddenly came from the woods. Shen Sisi and Mu Chu turned their heads to look into the woods.
