Ruan He held the lantern and looked directly at the unknown person. With a flash of his eyes, he revealed the fact that this person was not a man in black from the capital.

The most important reason why she said these words so confidently was that when this man was easily restrained in place by Mu Yunxiao, there was a hint of panic and fear in his eyes.

The group of men in black from the capital are well-trained killers and will not show fear so easily. Most of their eyes are cold and ruthless with strong murderous intent, which is different from the person in front of them. The look was completely different.

After careful observation, Ruan He finally expressed his judgment. Her words were not unreasonable. Mu Yunxiao also realized this very quickly and nodded silently, but did not let go. of strength.

Even though the person in front of him was not a killer sent by the capital, Mu Yunxiao did not relax his vigilance. He had a cold face, his eyes fell on the uninvited guest coldly, and asked directly and clearly: "Who are you? Who sent you here?"

"I...I..." The man was obviously not a trained killer or spy. There was a clear look of panic on his ordinary face, and he stammered in a panic. His eyes were darting around, as if he was unwilling to reveal his identity and whereabouts.

Ruan He knew the way to deal with such ordinary people who were not very courageous, especially since she could clearly feel the nervousness and panic of the person in front of her.

Ruan He gently motioned to Mrs. Mutai to go inside and rest, leaving the unexpected matter to the two of them to deal with.

Mrs. Mu Tai knew that staying there would only affect the younger generation. She nodded lightly, fearing that her old body would hold her back, and walked slowly into the house.

Now she couldn't figure out the origin of this mysterious man in black. From the words of Ruan He and Mu Yunxiao, she vaguely learned that this man was not the killer sent by the capital to chase them all the way before, so she secretly relaxed. He breathed a sigh of relief.

Mrs. Mutai was old after all, and she walked into the house with slow steps, but she had a good eye for seeing people. She could tell at a glance that the man was panicked. A person with such a kind heart, It should be that there can't be any trouble. It's enough for Xiao'er and Xiaohe to deal with it. She doesn't need to stay any longer.

Faced with someone who was hesitant and unwilling to tell the truth, Ruan He had her own way of dealing with it. She took out a long dagger from her sleeve with her backhand. The moment the sharp blade came out of the sheath, she was still afraid. The uninvited guest couldn't see how sharp the blade was, so he came right in front of him and slashed it several times.

Just after these few half-truths and half-false actions, the panic on the man's face became even deeper. He stared at the sharp blade in panic, his face turned pale with fear, and he knew at a glance that he was not a professional killer. of.

Ruan He had some vague calculations in his mind. He raised his lips and chuckled casually. He spoke slowly and slowly: "Tell me, who sent you here? What is the purpose of coming to our house?" ? You wouldn’t tell me that you were lying on our wall at night just to relax in the wind, right? "

As he spoke, the dagger held in Ruan He's hand was slicing in the air one after another, which also put great psychological pressure on this uninvited guest who was not very courageous but dared to peek here, and almost gave him a lot of psychological pressure. Go scared.The man's ordinary face wrinkled up nervously. He was quite wary and afraid of the blade. He stammered out his intention of coming: "I...I...came from the county town." Yes, I was paid to spy on your family, especially... watching Ruan He's every move."

When he heard Ruan He's name from this man, Mu Yunxiao's originally calm expression suddenly became cold. He stared at the person in front of him coldly, as if he could take action on the spot if he said something wrong.

If he encounters an assassin who usually comes to kill him, Mu Yunxiao can still maintain a calm and peaceful expression, but if this person's target is Ruan He, then he really can't stay calm...

"Huh? Follow me?" Ruan He didn't expect that this person was actually coming for him. Although he was surprised, his mood didn't change much. He snorted lightly and asked: "Tell me, who sent you here?" Are you following me?"

"Yes...yes..." When he saw the sharp long dagger, the fear in this man's heart had already risen. He subconsciously turned his eyes to the side and touched the depression between Mu Yunxiao's stern brows, and his whole body trembled. , unconsciously feeling a chill on his back, he stuttered more and more out of fear, his lips and teeth were trembling as he spoke, and he kept trembling.

Compared with the threat of the bright blade, what made this man feel more sincerely fearful was Mu Yunxiao's dark and cold gaze. The general who has been killing enemies on the battlefield all year round has a chilling look that makes people feel fearful. gas!

"It's Qiu... Shopkeeper Qiu! I don't know if you know... Shopkeeper Qiu who opened an inn in the west of the county seat! He sent me here to monitor you. I'm just a handyman with some skills. I don’t know anything...don’t kill me! I’m just an errand boy..."

This uninvited guest is obviously not a professional killer or a tight-lipped assassin. In the two people's successive threats, he has revealed his employer in detail, and every sentence with a vibrato fell into the ears of the two. Inside, it was revealed in one breath like pouring beans.

"Shopkeeper Qiu?" After hearing this man reveal the employer behind him one by one, the coldness in Mu Yunxiao's dark eyes still did not fade away, but when he heard the name, he only felt a vague sense of familiarity and glanced sideways. He looked at Ruan He on the side in a tacit understanding.

It seemed that... he had heard this name occasionally from Ruan He, but he had only heard it a few times. He was not sure, and he couldn't understand what an innkeeper was doing following Ruan He.

As soon as he heard the name Shopkeeper Qiu from this man's mouth, Ruan He's expression was slightly startled. He hesitated for a while, then he vaguely understood. He raised his eyebrows, snorted with unknown meaning, and said: "I understand. …”

"Ruan..." The errand boy named Xiao Liuzi was obviously hired to follow people, but he was very timid and couldn't muster the courage for a while, especially after hearing that unexplained sound. After snorting, a layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he was so frightened. (End of chapter)
