The night is still not over.
After breaking through the three people's blockade, Jiang Muchan quickly walked through the yard and climbed over the wall to escape from the royal palace.
When he got outside, he had nothing to be afraid of. Who can chase him in such a dark and lit place?
After a while, he escaped several miles away.
After walking under an old tree in the suburbs, Jiang Muchan stopped and wanted to take a breath.
At this time, the moonlight was just right, making the ground quite bright. Jiang Muchan would choose to rest in this place, which was considered because the view here was very wide. If someone approached around, he would see it very far away.
He thought about it very thoughtfully, but unfortunately...
"Boy, are you tired?" A feminine voice suddenly sounded declared that his caution was meaningless.
When Jiang Muchan heard this sound, her scalp became numb.
Because the voice came from the other side of the tree trunk he was leaning against, only a few feet away from him, but he was unaware of the other party's existence. If the speaker wanted to take his life, he would probably be a dead person at this time.
"Ha..." However, Jiang Muchan is a person who will still face smiles even if he is scared, so he is still sitting with his back against the big tree at this moment and responds in a relaxed tone, "I'm not a stubborn person. Is it okay to be tired after tossing this night?"
"Who do you know you love to make trouble?" The voice said, as he walked out of the back of the tree and slowly walked to Jiang Muchan, "Then tell me... what should our family do to you?"
"My father-in-law is very skilled in martial arts and is far above Mr. Jiang. Naturally, he will deal with me any way he wants to do... he will deal with me." At this moment, Jiang Muchan had already seen the other person's appearance and clothes clearly. Combined with the other person's voice and the title of "our family", it is not difficult to guess... The person who talked to him was a eunuch.
"Hmph... How come this sentence is like a father-in-law, I'm bullying you?" The old eunuch turned his back to Jiang Muchan without any defense, and said leisurely, "Tell me, is this what you did tonight appropriate?"
"What am I doing?" Jiang Muchan smiled, "Am I colluding with the Fire Lotus Sect to kill innocent people, or have I bullied men and women, and imposed heavy taxes?"
"Oh." The old eunuch nodded, "So you are helping the people vent their anger?"
"No, no..." Jiang Muchan said, "I'm just a thief. Tonight I just want to see if there is any fun in the warehouse of the royal palace that I can take back and play, but I haven't got it yet."
What he said was just pretending to be garlic.
So the old eunuch was a little unhappy when he heard this, and immediately said in a slight angrily: "Hey! Let's talk to you well, are you arguing with me?"
"I am a poor person, I'm afraid I can't change it anymore. Why don't my father-in-law bear it?" Jiang Muchan said.
"It's a slick word, it's time to hit me!" said the old eunuch, turned around and slashed.
This palm didn't come too suddenly, because Jiang Muchan had been on alert since the beginning: he seemed to be sitting on the ground with a big tree on his back, looking very relaxed, but in fact his bent legs were ready to go. Seeing this palm attack, he immediately stepped on the ground to leverage his strength, pulled his body and raised his head, and used all his strength to greet him.
However, his full strength and the opponent's palm with 50% strength were still at a disadvantage.
After all, the old eunuch is nearly 60 years old this year, while Jiang Muchan is only twenty-seven or eight years away. The two are thirty years apart. If this old man doesn’t have the talent for martial arts or has poor internal skills, it’s okay, but the actual situation is... He is also considered a top-ranked figure among the masters of the big house, so Jiang Muchan must be unable to fight.
Bang-
After this palm was matched, a feminine and fierce internal force penetrated from Jiang Muchan's right palm into his arm, and then rushed straight to his torso.
After a breath, Jiang Muchan felt a cold heart and a scent of rust appeared in her throat. Even though he sealed the heart meridian acupoints in time, he could not control the spread of internal injuries well.
"Your sword skills are good, but how can you practice internal skills so much? How did your master teach you?" The old eunuch finished his palm and did not chase him. It was like teaching a child a lesson. He stood up with his hands on his back and said in a questioning tone.
"Ha..." Jiang Muchan smiled again, and he leaned against the big tree again and sat down slowly.
This time, he really relaxed because he felt that resisting would be futile.
"My master's martial arts skills are indeed not high, and he only knows a poor set of internal skills, so he only taught me this, but if my father-in-law wants to say that he is not because of this..., I won't agree."
His words revealed a lot of information - the master only taught internal skills. So, you can understand the light skills and sword skills yourself?
That would be amazing.
How many people in this world have worked hard for decades to create a decent martial art. Can you, a 27 or 28-year-old, find out the two unique skills of swordsmanship and light skills by yourself?
Of course, even if this is true, it is nothing in the eyes of the old eunuch.
It is said that "I am not afraid of poor ability, but I am afraid of poor eyes." An old eunuch has seen the stars and seas. In his opinion, Jiang Muchan's hands are just "good" and are far from the point of being amazed.
Compared to that kind of thing, the old eunuch cared more about another message from Jiang Muchan’s words: “I also saw that your master has not taught martial arts well, but he taught very well ‘being a human being’, right?”
"Hahaha..." Jiang Muchan was happy. This time, it was not a bitter smile, but a joy from the heart, "Brother-in-law's clarity."
"Don't smile with you there." The old eunuch said again, "What do you think our family can't bear to kill you? I'm chasing you today to tell you--the thing you did tonight is unreasonable."
"Ha... Is it that my father-in-law wants to tell me the king's law?" Jiang Muchan said.
"Of course not." The old eunuch obviously scoffed at the two words, "I'm justifying you."
"Oh?" Jiang Muchan said, "Then I'm going to listen."
"I ask you, what is the difference between the royal family and ordinary officials and wealthy families?" said the old eunuch.
"The evil done by the owner of the royal palace is even greater." Jiang Muchan said.
"I'm still talking to me, right?" the old eunuch glared, "Do you still want to be beaten?"
"Okay, I'm wrong, father-in-law, you said." Jiang Muchan waved his hand, but still did not put away his joking expression.
The old eunuch slammed his nose and said again: "The royal palace is the royal family. The royal family has the royal face. This... is something that other powerful people will never have."
"It's a small matter if you lose something, but it's a big matter if you lose face... Is that what it means?" Jiang Muchan said.
"That's right." said the old eunuch.
"The father-in-law thinks that what Jiang did was mainly for money and treasures, or for stomping on others' faces?" Jiang Muchan said.
"Hmph... you can step on others, but you can't step on the people of the Old Zhu family." When he said this, the old eunuch's tone became a little colder.
"He Zhu's actions have done so many consciences, but he still lacks these two feet on his face?" Jiang Muchan asked.
"Even if he is worse than a beast in the hearts of the people, it's not your turn to take care of it." The old eunuch said this, paused slightly, glanced around, and lowered his voice, "Even if he wants to take care of it... it's not your way of controlling it."
When Jiang Muchan heard this, his expression changed. He obviously caught something from the old eunuch's words.
After seeing his expression change, the old eunuch immediately raised his voice again, opened the topic, and continued, "And... don't you think about it, there are so many female relatives in the royal palace. The daughter of the Zhu family is not as good as an ordinary citizen. You are a thief, who is in and out like this. If there is someone who can speak and not listen, and ruins the reputation of those princesses, can you afford it?"
"What my father-in-law said is very true. Jiang Mou did not consider those..." At this time, Jiang Muchan's voice also changed, "You are right. I'm not saying anything. I'll pay attention next time."
"Next time? Haha..." the old eunuch laughed, "Do you really think that a place like a royal mansion can allow you to enter and exit at will? Go and try some royal mansions... You may not encounter someone as reasonable as ours."
After hearing this, Jiang Muchan said in her heart: "What a reasonable person. The palm almost beat me to death just now... But I did underestimate the strength of the royal palace. It turns out that what is really scary is not the subordinates of these vassal kings themselves, but the great masters who were placed by the court by them to monitor..."
Thoughts on it, he still respectfully said: "Dare you ask... is your father-in-law going to let me go?"
"Why should I keep you?" said the old eunuch, "You want to be my godson?"
"No, my father-in-law is too polite." Jiang Muchan quickly shook his head, "I can't get up."
"Well, that's all?" said the old eunuch. "Our family is here to warn you. Don't think it's easy to come and go this time. I dare to come next time. Now that you understand, then leave."
"Uh..." Jiang Muchan thought about it, let's keep it, and it won't be a good idea. "Then thank you for your advice, I'll say goodbye."
After saying that, he ran away without looking back.
The old eunuch stood there, watching him walk away without moving.
After Jiang Muchan's figure completely disappeared into the night, suddenly another figure appeared beside the old eunuch.
This person was actually nearby just now, listening to the conversation between the two, but Jiang Muchan had never noticed his existence.
"Didn't my father-in-law really let him go?" the man asked.
"What about that?" the old eunuch asked.
"Aren't you afraid that he will ruin our big affairs?" the man asked again.
"What can a Green Forest who only understands Xiaoren and Xiaoyi?" said the old eunuch, "Besides, our family has 'instructed' him just now. He is not a stupid person, he should understand what I mean."
"So that's the case, that's good." The man continued, "By the way, should we report tonight's incident? "
"Of course I want it." The old eunuch replied, "This kid offended the Great Immortal of Fire Lotus tonight. His wanted order will definitely be posted all over the city tomorrow. Even if we want to hide it, we can't hide it." He said this, and said, "But... what can be reported in this matter and what do you don't need to be reported. We can talk about it."
"Well... it's true." The man thought about it and nodded again.
"Then..." the old eunuch shrugged and turned around and said, "What do you say to your 'superior'? What do I say to my 'master'... Let's talk while walking?"
"Please, father-in-law." The man turned sideways and gave in.
