Tangled

Chapter 107 Recommendations
At this time, the hawkers hadn't opened their stalls yet. When he went, they were preparing the breakfast for their stalls. In order not to let people find out, he left the money and took some food and left.

And the clothes too, he went directly to the shop to get them.

Mu Chengze stared at him with squinted eyes while biting a pancake, "If you don't ask, you are stealing. Although Ashu kept money, stealing is stealing, and the essence remains the same."

Gu Tingshu took out the bamboo tube from the package, and gave him a fluttering look, "You can spit it out if you don't eat it."

He left ten times more silver than what he took, and even the shopkeeper would only be happy when he found out that the things were missing.

He was hungry now, and he happened to have food to eat, so how could Mu Chengze vomit it out.

He bit the pancake viciously, rolled his eyes and turned his back, not answering the words.

After eating three cakes in a row, he finally felt a little full. He drank another half of the water in the bamboo tube before stopping.

"I'm going to change clothes first, you wake up my cousin."

Mu Chengze picked up his clothes and went to the side. He was about to change when he turned around and saw Gu Tingshu staring at him.

He hugged his chest silently and looked at Gu Tingshu defensively, "What do you want to do?"

"Go outside and change."

Mu Chengze put down his hands and breathed a sigh of relief, "You said it earlier, you thought you had some plans for me."

"Although I am more handsome than you, my skin is fairer than you, and I am more powerful than you, but..."

"Oh!"

Before he could speak, a long sword flew towards him quickly, and when the cold light flashed in his eyes, the long sword had already sunk deep into the wall of people.

The sword was only a finger away from him, Mu Chengze touched his waist, wanting to take out the fan to fan the wind, but he missed it before realizing that the fan was hidden outside the city.

He withdrew his empty hand, patted the clothes he was holding, stood up and walked out the door.

"The enemy is now, I will not punish you for the first time, and I will settle the score with you when I return to the capital."

He still used his elder brother's tone, Gu Tingshu knew that he didn't take it to heart, so he ignored it and called Shen Qiqi to get up instead.

Shen Qiqi only felt that she had just fallen asleep, but she didn't want to get up again.

She half-opened her eyes and really didn't want to move.

"I'm just outside, change my clothes and call me."

Gu Tingshu took a wet handkerchief and wiped her face. Seeing that she was fully awake, he drew his sword and walked out the door.

Mu Chengze had a shoulder injury, and was struggling to put on his clothes at the moment. Seeing him coming out, he quickly waved to him.

"Ash, come and help me."

He was only half dressed, and his hair was messed up, so he looked really embarrassed at this moment.

Gu Tingshu went to help, and then helped him tie his hair.

In the quiet early morning, the news of the pursuers searching from house to house spread far and wide, Gu Tingshu asked Mu Chengze to pack up the changed clothes while he himself went to call Shen Qiqi.

"Shen Qi, hurry up."

Shen Qiqi had just combed her messy hair, when she heard the knock on the door, she hurriedly responded.

"Put on the backpack and let's go quickly."

Gu Tingshu took back the burnt candle, disturbed the traces on the ground, and threw the barrel back into the well when he went out.

After making sure that there were no traces left, they left in another direction.

Hiding in the street until dawn, they found a place to stay, then ordered a pot of tea, sat on the second floor and watched the guards running past on the street from time to time.

Although it was daylight, the gate of the city was not opened. The other party knew that they had not yet escaped from the city, and wanted to catch a turtle in an urn.

Shen Qiqi covered her face with a light veil, she didn't focus on the street like they did, but listened to the conversation at the table next to her.

"Have you heard? Last night, the concubine of Mr. Fu Yin Xinna was kidnapped."

"Which thief is so bold that he dares to kidnap Lord Fu Yin's concubine?"

"My brother-in-law who works in Shao's mansion came back this morning and said that he seems to be a captive from Xiaolao Village, ten miles outside the city."

"He came back this morning just to inform him that he would take people to Xiaolao Village to arrest them."

"Impossible. I've heard about Mr. Liu. He's a good man praised by all villages."

"Hey, what's the use of us knowing, it's only because Mr. Fu Yin thinks so. If he doesn't think so, why don't we just arrest him?"

"Hush! Don't talk about it, the wall has ears, if someone hears it, we will all suffer."

After such a reminder, the man suddenly woke up like a start. He looked around and found that no one noticed, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

Shen Qiqi had already sat upright, she held the teacup in her hand, but she didn't take a sip for a long time.

The next table was very close, even though they had deliberately lowered their voices, Shen Qiqi could hear it, and it was hard for Gu Tingshu and Mu Chengze not to hear it.

"Shen Qi, where is the entrance of the cave mentioned last night?"

Shen Qiqi raised her head and said "Huh?", and after realizing it, she explained the location carefully.

Seeing that he was about to leave with the sword, she felt worried, but she dared not say it out loud.

"Ashu just go, my cousin is under my protection."

Mu Chengze glanced at Gu Tingshu's hand holding the sword, and he understood.

Although he has the name of Ye Raksha to the outside world, everyone in the world does not know that his vicious methods are only used by foreigners, and he is merciful to those of the same race.

Now that he is like this, I'm afraid he is really angry, and that's right, the governor's actions, even himself, have already been furious.

Originally, I wondered if there might be any misunderstanding, and thought to investigate clearly before making a decision, but now it seems that there is no need.

Gu Tingshu glanced at Shen Qiqi, through the light veil, she could vaguely see her worried eyes.

He moved his hands and patted the top of her hair lightly, "Be more obedient, I'll be back soon."

Mu Chengze was not at all worried that something would happen to him, so he waved him to hurry up while drinking tea.

When he went downstairs, Shen Qiqi leaned out to look, and when she couldn't even see her back, she turned around and asked, "Is cousin okay?"

"Is your injury serious? Can you help me?"

After taking a sip of hot tea, Mu Chengze breathed a sigh of relief, seeing that Shen Qiqi was almost unable to sit still, so he raised his eyebrows at her.

"You have to have more confidence in Ashura. Thinking back when he entered the Northern Man with a long sword in his hand, he was still able to retreat after taking the head of the other general."

"Now it's just a mere district governor, even if there are two more, what can he do?"

"You, just keep your heart in your stomach obediently, how about this, after you eat this plate of pastries, I will take you to find him."

Seeing her hands constantly pawing at the table, knowing that she was determined not to let go at this time, Mu Chengze changed the subject and directly said that he would take her to have a look.

Although this suggestion is extremely tempting, Shen Qiqi does not dare to simply accept it.

She didn't have the time to be there, so she went hastily, fearing that she would cause more trouble.

"Don't worry, if we are on the sidelines, then they will focus on Ash and they won't find us."
