Chapter 166: Im Now Surnamed Mu

  "How did you know?" Hua Rou was surprised. ...cop That day she actually didn't use the Tang Xiao's method, mainly because she was afraid of causing controversy - although Grandma had agreed, but others didn't know, what if there were any malicious rumors or gossip that would...

  "The footwork is cunning and agile, it should be the Dark Weapon Room's teachings." Mu Junwu hung his eyes down, the bamboo joints in his hand turned again and again.

  "You're really something, this is all too obvious... Brother Tang Xiao even told me not to tell anyone else!"

  The bamboo joints in your hand have stopped rotating.

  Someone else? She actually took me for someone else?

  "Your relationship has become so good?"

  "It's okay, actually it's because of Tang Xiao Shixiong being a good person." Hua Rou didn't sense the meaning behind this question at all...

  When I heard your words, a nameless fire suddenly rose in my heart. I immediately stood up and said: "I'm leaving."

  Mo Jun said and then walked out of the bamboo forest, but Hua Rou was stunned on the spot.

  What's going on?

  She had already sensed that Mu Junwu was angry, but she couldn't figure out what he was angry about, so she was stunned for a long time before realizing that Mu Junwu had left. She rushed out of the bamboo forest and could only shout at Mu Junwu's back: "See you in ten days, Brother Mu!"

  ……

  Hearing the knock on the door, Yu'er opened the courtyard gate: "Tang Xiao Shixiong? Are you here to find Hua Rou?" Yu'er had a knowing expression and smiled slyly: "She's not in..."

  "No, I'm looking for you."

  Tang Xiao's response left Yu'er utterly astonished: "Looking for me?"

  "Right! The trial is imminent, and every one of us must make the greatest effort to prepare. You are a member of the Hidden Weapons Division, so I will naturally teach you some skills."

  "Really?" Yu'er exclaimed excitedly: "That's great!"

  "Come on, let's go practice in the courtyard of the hidden weapons room!" Tang Xiao said as he turned around and walked away. Yu'er immediately responded by closing the door and following him.

  Tang Xiao is a responsible person.

  He taught Yu'er kung fu moves, but it wasn't just for show.

  Every sentence is straightforward and to the point without any nonsense. At first, I will demonstrate it outside, and then I will continue to give her corrective guidance in Yu'er's practice.

  Jade had never experienced such care, even when she was studying in the Phoenix Building that year, it was a place of intrigue and deception.

  People are on guard against each other, full of hostility, and the master's teachings are nothing more than looking down on people, she has never felt warmth, only learning the calculations of competition, thinking about how to become stronger.

  The poisonous house, the poisonous master's teaching attaches more importance to one's own efforts. She is the same to everyone, without any closeness, so everyone's final outcome depends on themselves. She also works extra hard, striving to make herself stand out from the crowd.

  At that time, she unknowingly became infatuated with the feeling of being a strong person. She enjoyed the momentary attention and concern from others - she was too lonely, too lacking in love, only this attention could make her feel the existence of life.

  But all of these were completely destroyed in the prison.

  The three years in prison were three years that nearly froze her heart to death.

  That feeling of being ignored, abandoned and forgotten made her feel like a living dead person, unable to feel the existence of life.

  And so, Yu'er became even more mindful of her own existence. The feeling of being a strong person used to give her some comfort, but now she especially envied the love that others received.

  That is to say, all the care and help given to her will warm her heart and make her feel that she is still alive.

  Tang Xiao taught her with such dedication, and Yu'er naturally learned very seriously.

  She was naturally intelligent and had a good foundation, except that at first she was a bit too excited due to the attention she received and accepted it slowly. Later on, after calming down slightly, she became more proficient as she learned, and in just two hours, she had already mastered this set of skills.

  "Your comprehension is high and your foundation is good, the entire set of skills were explained only twice before you mastered them, truly worthy of being a top student back in the day."

  Yu'er heard this and had a look of shame on her face: "What's the use of being talented? If you don't meet the right person, do the right thing, in the end you'll almost suffocate to death in a bitter prison."

  "It's great that you've met Hua Rou, your luck isn't bad."

  Yu'er immediately smiled and nodded: "Right! It was Hua Rou who gave me a new life."

  "Hua Rou is a good girl, eh, I see her often with Mu Junwu together, the two of them..." Tang Xiao was somewhat unwilling to give up, hoping it was a misunderstanding.

  "They're very close, and it's not just them. Tang Ji and Tang Liu are also good to Hua Rou, and you're good to her too!" Yu'er said, then lowered her head and muttered enviously: "Everyone is so nice to Hua Rou!"

  Tang Xiao could no longer hear Yu'er's whisper at this moment, his expression was somewhat melancholic, he knew it wasn't a misunderstanding, his own fantasy was ultimately just a fantasy.

  ……

  In the secret room of the government house, Mu Junwu held a book and looked up at the air vent that was the only source of light, confirming it was already deep in the night. He then closed the book and blew out the candle.

  In the darkness, he opened the secret room, walked out and rushed straight to the old tree at the back of the mountain, entering a hidden passage.

  The next day, at around noon, Mu Junwu, dressed as a merchant and sporting a fake beard, walked into a Jidao medicinal herbs store in Yuzhou City.

  As soon as he entered, the shopkeeper at the door stopped him: "Sorry, sir. We are taking stock now and will not do business until an hour later."

  The fellow said, pointing at the "Dian Ku" banner hanging on the door.

  "I'm not here to do business." Mu Jun spoke in a calm and unhurried tone, lowering his voice: "I've come to find your master."

  At this time, the shopkeeper who was checking accounts next door immediately put down his abacus and came to the front door. He waved his hand to dismiss his assistant and smiled: "Sir, our master is not doing business, he's not in the industry, I don't know what you want..."

  At this moment, Mu Jun took out a small seal and handed it to the shopkeeper.

  The shopkeeper took it with a suspicious look, and after a closer examination, he immediately showed a respectful expression, holding the small seal in both hands and returned it to Mu Junwu: "Sir, please enter."

  The shopkeeper immediately led Mu Junwu into the inner hall, and the big and small apprentices in the medicine store all had a calm expression, as if they didn't think there was any problem.

  The shopkeeper led Mu Junwu into the inner hall, personally serving tea and saying "Please wait a moment" before quickly retreating.

  After watching the shopkeeper leave, Mu Jun gazed around and then picked up his teacup, sipping his tea slowly.

  Before long, the owner of the medicine shop Liu Sheng rushed into the inner hall in a flurry. As he stepped inside and raised his eyes to see Mu Junwu, he froze on the spot.

  Four eyes meet.

  Liu Sheng was sizing up Mu Junwu, while Mu Junwu was calmly looking at him.

  After a few gasps, Liu Sheng took two steps forward and knelt down with a "thud", prostrating himself and saying: "Your humble servant has seen the King of Qi..."

  "Get up, I'm now surnamed Mu." Mu Junwu said as he put down the teacup in his hand and personally came forward to help him up.
