Chapter 989 Goodbye Xun Shuang

Lin Mu, who was slightly disguised, hurried to a low-rise house before a large-scale search.

He knocked on the door rhythmically, and soon someone opened it.

"My Lord, why are you here?" Tianjia Seventeen received Lin Mu in the secret room, with a puzzled look on his face.

"Not only did I come, I also assisted Tianjia Ninety-three and others to complete the burial of flowers and grafting of trees." Lin Mu said with a smile.

"So that's how it is. Before the dawn, there was a shocking battle over there. According to Yeying's investigation, more than ten heavenly generals broke out in a battle!"

"Everything went well?"

"Not very well, there were more changes than planned." Lin Mu pointed to the things on his back and said meaningfully.

"And Xu Feng's side has only completed part of it." Lin Mu said helplessly.

"Tianjia Ninety-three and others, I ordered them to leave Luoyang, and they may not be able to help you next." Lin Mu said in a deep voice.

Tianjia Seventeen and their group are responsible for Ma Yuanyi's plan.

In fact, they should have been with Tianjia Ninety-three and his men, but unfortunately, due to some variables, Tianjia Ninety-three and his men left the scene early. After all, their group had basically moved, while Tianjia Seventeen and his group had been lurking.

As long as they moved, there would be traces. The Yulin Guards, the Imperial Guards and other troops would find their traces as long as they were determined.

"It's okay... Just wait until the execution at noon, and the people of the Shaofu who are in charge of the emperor's private wealth should collect Ma Yuanyi's relics. Then we can find an opportunity to fight for it." Tianjia Seventeen said in a serious tone.

Unlike the situation of burying flowers and grafting trees, the snatching of Ma Yuanyi's treasure bag was a temporary move, and there was no mature plan. Therefore, Tianjia Seventeen was transferred to take charge.

"That's good. It's good to get Ma Yuanyi's inheritance. If it's too reluctant, then give up. Anyway, we have already got a lot of money on this trip." Lin Mu said softly.

"Thank you for your concern, my lord. We won't risk our lives."

"What is the current security situation in the city? Is the city gate still completely closed?" Lin Mu asked.

"The Taiping Dao in the city has been completely destroyed under Tang Zhou's exposure."

"It was completely closed yesterday. It has been unsealed this morning, but the inspection is very strict."

Lin Mu nodded after hearing this. As long as the city is opened and people are released, Tianjia Jiushisan and others can leave easily.

As for him with the Seven-Star Dragon Abyss Sword, it is not so easy to leave. Unless he throws it away.

"Sir, the latest news!" At this time, a black shadow came in to report.

"Oh... What's the latest news?" The two were slightly shocked when they heard it. It must be Liu Hong's new move.

"There have been great changes in the court. Taiwei Yang Biao was removed and Yuan Wei took over; Lu Zhi... Huangfu Song... Zhu Jun... Zhao Zhong..." The night shadow soldiers slowly told the situation in the court.

"Zhi Jinwu Yuan Feng was demoted and the lord's teacher took over! At present, the public security in the city has begun to recover."

"Hey, he was promoted to Zhi Jinwu, interesting!" Lin Mu really didn't expect Xun Shuang to be promoted to such a high position.

He has great power and is responsible for patrolling, prohibiting violence, supervising traitors, and other tasks in the capital. He is in charge of the Northern Army and guards the imperial palace with the Weiwei who is in charge of the Southern Army.

In addition, there is also a relationship between the city gate lieutenant, the Jinwu and the Northern Army. They check and balance each other and are not subordinate to each other. Together, they form the city guards in the central guard system of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

"My lord, I heard that Lord Xun Shuang personally went to the city gate to appease the people!" The Night Shadow soldier reported.

"Oh... personally went to the city gate, which city gate did he appear at?" Lin Mu nodded and asked with a gleam in his eyes.

"It's at the North Gate..."

"Haha... God helps me!" When Lin Mu heard that it was the North Gate, he immediately remembered the letter he had asked Tianjia Jiushisan and others to send to Xun Shuang before, and laughed.

He originally just asked Xun Shuang to find a relationship to let him leave Luoyang City. But he didn't expect that Xun Shuang had such power directly.

Lin Mu knew that the people who were responsible for guarding the city gates were the [City Gate Captain] and the [Principal Guards], but generally speaking, it was the [City Gate Captain] who guarded the city gates. The Principal Guards were responsible for security patrols. Now, in order to appease the people, it was not an overstep for Xun Shuang to guard the north city gate.

Lin Mu, who had just racked his brains for how to leave the city, was now relaxed. Sure enough, the boat will naturally straighten out when it reaches the bridgehead!

Lin Mu pondered for a while, and said in a sonorous and powerful voice: "Tianjia Seventeen, you continue to proceed according to the plan. If there is any change, don't force it. I am going to leave the city now." Lin Mu said in a serious tone.

"Okay, let's escort the lord."

"No need... I will go straight to the city gate and leave this vortex before the enemy reacts." Lin Mu refused to help again.

Liu Hong has such a sword in his collection. Other nobles must be jealous. They dare to rob Xu Feng's mansion as boldly as him, so why don't they dare to kill him? So at this moment, Liu Hong should be secretly searching for the Seven-Star Dragon Abyss Sword. Other nobles did not know of its existence.

Lin Mu quietly left the residence again.

In fact, just as Lin Mu expected, Zhao Zhong personally led the Iron Army and used this strange compass to find the secret room where Lin Mu and Tianjia Jiushisan had stayed before.

It was just that they were one step behind. If Lin Mu and his men had waited for Ma Yuanyi's death before leaving, they might have been wiped out.

There was no trace of the Seven-Star Dragon Abyss Sword in the secret room. Zhao Zhong activated the compass again, and another red line appeared. If you look closely and compare it with the map, you will know that this red line is the route Lin Mu took.

"Chase!" Zhao Zhong waved his hand and left quickly with hundreds of black armored soldiers.

If Lin Mu was here, he would know that the momentum of these hundreds of iron soldiers was the same as that of Tianjia Ninety-Three, and he couldn't feel it.

Hundreds of Heavenly-ranked Generals!!

In order to find the Seven-Star Dragon Abyss Sword, Liu Hong also spent a lot of money!

...

Lin Mu, who was in a hurry, already felt a deadly murderous intent behind him.

Unfortunately, he didn't dare to summon the Dragon Scale Horse or use the Dragon Yuan Gangqi to hurry on the road. He could only hurry on the road like other passers-by.

"It's almost there... It's the North Gate!" After walking for a long time, Lin Mu finally came to a huge city gate.

This huge city gate, like a prehistoric beast, was entrenched here, with a majestic momentum. Lin Mu didn't look at the surrounding environment in detail at this moment, and he didn't have time to observe the size of the city gate. He continued to hurry on his way.

In front of the city gate, there was actually a long queue, and many people wanted to leave the city. However, Lin Mu did not queue up. As he had connections, he was directly treated as a VIP.

"I am the retainer of the new Prefect of the Guards Xunshuang. I am here on orders to see Xunshuang." Lin Mu said to the soldier who stopped him.

"Oh... please follow me, sir." The soldier heard that the visitor was the retainer of the new Prefect of the Guards Xunshuang, and he did not make things difficult for him. Instead, he was very enthusiastic. After all, he was the subordinate of the subordinate of the subordinate of Xunshuang.

"Sir, you should pay attention. Although the new Prefect of the Guards Xunshuang is currently stationed at the north gate to appease the people, there are actually some soldiers of the city gate lieutenant guarding the city gate."

"We are not getting along with them. Especially since Prefect of the Guards Xunshuang has just replaced the official of the Yuan family, those soldiers serving under the Yuan family will definitely hate us." The soldier actually explained something to Lin Mu.

Hearing this, Lin Mu was quite surprised. You see, it's different if you have connections. The key information appears without asking.

According to what Lin Mu knows, the current city gate lieutenant is a student of the Yuan family, named Chunyu Qiong.

Chunyu Qiong, courtesy name Zhongjian, was from Yingchuan, and was considered to be from the same hometown as Xunshuang. However, he was a disciple of the Yuan family, so he was not on good terms with Xunshuang, who had just replaced Yuan Feng as the Prefect of the Guards.

It is not surprising that the people below them were not on good terms.

Soon, Lin Mu saw Xunshuang on a city wall.

Xunshuang was still the same, with a rosy face, and the whole person seemed to be much younger than before. This was Lin Mu's feeling.

Xunshuang sent everyone away and met Lin Mu alone.

"Lin Mu, the disciple who has not yet entered the class, Lin Daojiu, greets the teacher." Lin Mu knelt down and said.

Kneeling to the sky is precious to the earth and parents. Xunshuang is his teacher, just like his parents, so there is nothing wrong with this great ceremony.

And Xunshuang also accepted Lin Mu calmly, and didn't even let him get up.

"Daojiu, we haven't seen each other for a few years!"

Seeing Lin Mu, Xunshuang raised his eyebrows, and a touch of relief flashed in his eyes. However, his face changed and he said solemnly: "You have become more mysterious and bolder!"

"Hehe... It's all because of Zhicai and the others. I'm not very brave." Lin Mu pushed the responsibility to others and looked humble.

"Okay, I already know the purpose of your coming. You'd better get out of here!" Xun Shuang looked disgusted and kicked Lin Mu.
