I traveled through time and space and found a mute boy: That’s enough, I feel sorry for him

Chapter 237 Departure

Seeing Xu Shu from afar, Mu Jinghua quickly stood up and said anxiously: "Xu Shu!"

Hearing his anxious voice, Xu Shu quickened his pace: "What's wrong?"

Mu Jinghua lowered his voice and said, "That's a lot of money."

"Money?" Xu Shu was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses, "Did you see the ring?"

Mu Jinghua blushed and nodded, a little excited: "So much money, hidden in such a small thing, you really are a god, right?"

Xu Shu was a little helpless, rubbed him, but asked: "Are you still uncomfortable?"

He explained his plan and said that he had not found a shortcut to the Muyi Building: "We can only go back the same way."

Mu Jinghua patted him on the shoulder and said, "I know the way."

"But it was pitch dark when you escaped from Yichun Tower. How did you remember the way?"

The boy also has night blindness, which has not yet fully recovered.

Mu Jinghua heard another meaning: "How do you know it's dark?"

Although he had expected this, Xu Shu never said it explicitly, so he thought Xu Shu didn't want him to know: "You finally admitted it!"

"Admit what?"

"You...you are my savior." Mu Jinghua said in a low voice.

Xu Shu laughed: "What? Do you admit that you want to marry me?"

Mu Jinghua couldn't help but think of what happened last night, and said shyly, "It's been yours for a long time... a long time."

This is true.

Xu Shu couldn't help but kiss Mu Jinghua.

After lunch and packing up the tent, Mu Jinghua took Xu Shu down the mountain.

Obviously, Qiao Jiabing had no intention of going to Muyi Building to arrest anyone, so the building looked peaceful.

In order to save time, Mu Jinghua explained things to the people in Muyilou, while Xu Shu went to the mahjong hall next door to explain things to Jing Yang.

But as soon as he entered the door, he ran into Jiang Yu and Xu Nangui.

Looking at Jiang Yu's posture, it seemed that he was waiting here for him.

Xu Shu raised his eyebrows, but before he could speak, Jiang Yu said, "Let's talk upstairs."

Xu Shu hummed and went to the most secret private room upstairs. As soon as he closed the door, Jiang Yu said, "Feng Dan's men will attack us tomorrow. We have to move our whole family north. Brother Xu, you..."

"The defenses of Yuzhou city have been breached?" Xu Shu frowned in confusion.

Yuzhou still has his crossbows to support him, so even if the city defenses are breached, there should be no news that cannot be transmitted in.

"No." Jiang Yu shook his head. "It was defeated without any attack. There must be a traitor."

This can be explained clearly, but it is very sad. Xu Shudu sighed.

"Where are you going?"

"Go to Beijing."

As expected, Xu Shu nodded and agreed: "In such a dangerous time, you still remember me..."

"It's not that I want to remember you." Jiang Yu took out her folding fan, "I clearly reminded you to be careful of Qiao Jianhong some time ago, but you still got tricked by him, didn't you? Now you have no home to return to."

"You are Nangui's benefactor after all, I must give you a hand."

Xu Nangui nodded slightly: "Let's go to the capital together, so that we can have someone to take care of us on the way."

Xu Shu was silent for a while, but asked, "How did you know Qiao Jianhong's plan and tell me in advance?"

"I don't know." Jiang Yu poured himself a cup of tea, "It's just that a friend in Beijing wrote to tell me that Qiao Jianhong sent a hundred thousand troops to Yuzhou City."

"You made an enemy of him, and now he has soldiers under his command and is in a very proud period. How could he not come to settle the score with you?"

"Qiao Jianhong has never been a gentleman."

Xu Shu agreed with this point, but when he heard that Yuzhou had sent a 100,000-man army, he suddenly had an idea: "The 100,000-man army should be here soon."

"Yes." Jiang Yu nodded, "But the defense of Yuzhou City has been breached. Even if the army comes, people like us can't wait until then."

"Not necessarily." Xu Shu interrupted him and emphasized again, "Not necessarily."

Jiang Yu was a smart man and subconsciously wanted to refute, but Xu Nangui asked before he could, "Do you have any good ideas?"

"Have you heard..." Xu Shu was about to speak when there was a knock on the door by Jingyang.

It was Mu Jinghua who came. Xu Shu pulled him and asked, "Is Mu Yilou okay?"

"What's wrong with that?" Mu Jinghua glanced at Xu Nangui and sat down next to Xu Shu.

Xu Shu knew at a glance that this jealous little guy was getting angry again, but before he could comfort Mu Jinghua, Jiang Yu urged him, "Xu Shu, don't keep us in suspense."

Xu Shu responded and continued, "It's very simple, just one sentence."

He wrote on the paper: "Everyone is a soldier."

Jiang Yu took a look and couldn't help but chuckle: "But people always cherish their lives. If you tell the people of Yuzhou that Feng Dan will attack tomorrow, they will be terrified and flee with their families."

"The noise is too loud, Feng Dan might not be able to ignore it."

"But what if you tell them that the Qiao family army will arrive the day after tomorrow?" Xu Shu laughed, "Will everyone still run away?"

"But no one knows when the Qiao family army will arrive." Jiang Yu frowned, "Xu Shu, there is a price to pay for lying."

"Then let Xiao Ran speak." Xu Shu said indifferently.

"You guy..." Jiang Yu couldn't help but smile, then shook his head, "Saying you'll be there the day after tomorrow is too much of a stretch, why not say you'll arrive three days later?"

Xu Shu nodded. Thinking of the Qiao family soldiers in Shiqiao Village, he felt that the army sent by Qiao Jianhong would arrive in less than three days.

But he still didn't understand one thing: "From what you said, you don't plan to leave?"

Jiang Yu laughed twice: "I'm not the kind of person who cares about the world."

Mu Jinghua hummed, obviously not thinking he was.

Instead, Xu Nangui smiled softly and said, "You are it."

"Hey," Jiang Yu tapped his head with a folding fan, "What are you talking about?"

Xu Nangui stopped talking, but Jiang Yu felt a little embarrassed.

However, Xu Shu had no intention of arguing with Jiang Yu about this issue, because Jiang Yu might really be the kind of person who cares about the world.

Take the gambling house he took over, for example. It didn’t make a single penny in a month. This is definitely not something a businessman would do.

But he didn't intend to flatter, so he asked: "Have you seen Xiao Ran?"

"After hearing that Mr. Qin was seriously injured, Xiao Ran hurriedly brought people back last night and closed the door to visitors."

"Does he know about the Qiao family army?" Xu Shu suddenly felt that Xiao Ran came to Shiqiao Village yesterday not just to find Qin Lianxi, but maybe he had some other plans.

Jiang Yu didn't understand this, so he shook his head and gave Xu Shu some advice: "Although he has closed the door to visitors, Xu Shu, you are good at martial arts, so why don't you climb over the wall and ask him?"

Xu Shu was a little speechless, so he changed the subject and asked, "Did he bring Qi Huairen with him when he came back last night?"

"Are you talking about the miracle doctor?" Jiang Yu recalled, "My subordinates reported that he seemed to have brought it with him?"

Xu Nangui nodded, as a testimony to his point: "He brought a little guy with him, who seems to be the apprentice of the miracle doctor."

This should be Qu Xiu.

Xu Shu nodded and glanced at Mu Jinghua: "Don't worry, Master and the others are fine."

Mu Jinghua hadn't said a word since he came in. When he heard Xu Shu's voice, he nodded slightly, but still said nothing.
