Li Mu heard Qin Yue mention this, and then he scanned the courtyard. He looked around, but saw no one. He frowned slightly, as if he was confused as to why the man suddenly disappeared.

On the contrary, Qin Yue, who reminded him, waved his hand and said: "Well, the nobles are all busy, and maybe they have other important things to do and are rushing to leave. Just in time, she is gone, and we don't need to bother to entertain her. Come, come, have a drink.

"

After a round of drinking, by the time the banquet ended, Li Mu's face was already pale red.

The neighbors went home, and Qin Yue was also very drunk. He said he was going to a brothel to have a nice time, so as not to disturb Li Mu's bridal chamber in the courtyard.

Only Li Mu paid attention to the degree of drinking and never got drunk.

But even though he never got drunk, the few drinks he drank in a row made him tipsy.

Li Mu sent all the guests away and raised his hand to close the courtyard door.

When he first arrived at the gate of the courtyard, he saw children playing outside. The children were laughing and shouting for sweets. Li Mu was yelled at by these childish children, but there was no trace of tiredness or boredom on his face. Instead, his eyebrows and eyes were exceptionally gentle.

He shook his head and smiled, threw out the candy bag fastened on the door knocker, and then closed the door with a gentle smile.

The children playing outside took the candy bags and hurriedly looked toward the courtyard door. The last thing they saw before the courtyard door closed was the drunken groom with a red face and smiling eyes inside the wooden door.

The courtyard door was closed, and Li Mu came to the inner room of the wedding room.

In the inner room, Linglong was sleeping on the wedding bed. The cakes that had been neatly placed on the table were now eaten in a mess, but they were in inexplicable harmony with the girl sleeping soundly on the wedding bed.

Li Mu just looked at her, his heart and eyes filled with joy.

The maid taking care of Linglong in the inner room saw Li Mu come in and was about to say something. Li Mu raised his eyes and saw Linglong's eyebrows frowning slightly in her sleep, and waved her hand to signal her to leave.

The maid hesitated for a moment, then thought that it was not an important matter, so she also withdrew.

Li Mu walked to the edge of the bed very slowly and leaned over to take a closer look at Linglong who was sleeping soundly.

He was worried about disturbing her when she fell asleep, so he didn't even sit down on the couch.

Linglong was fast asleep, Bu Yao's hair on her temples had become messy, and even her lipstick was badly rubbed.

The hair on the temples is messy, the steps are swaying slightly, and the lip grease is mottled.

Even the belt of the wedding dress was scattered and only hung on the body.

She looked like this, sleeping on his and her wedding couch.

In Li Mu's mind, he could only think of a ridiculous word - let others pick it.

Just looking at her, he felt his heart pounding. The greed that had been suppressed for a long time by the so-called gentleman's virtue was like a dead tree that was frozen in the winter, but its branches grew wildly after the warm spring.

She was once a goddess who was stingy even in her dreams. At this moment, she actually arrived before her eyes.

The last ray of the setting sun at dusk dispersed, and the heavy rain fell together with the night.

The sound of raindrops under the eaves covered the pounding of Li Mu's heart.

He leaned over and lowered his head, looking at Linglong in his sleep with only an inch of distance, looking piously and wildly.

Greed, desire, and even the desire that he had been suppressing were all boiling hot at this moment.

But Li Mu never blasphemed the person in front of him.

He lowered his eyes and sighed, laughing at himself for being so cowardly.

Just as he was about to get up, Linglong, who was sleeping, suddenly grabbed the lapel of his clothes.

With this pull, he was pulled straight down as he was about to get up, and fell on Linglong.

The two bodies collided, their lips and teeth clashed.,

It broke the flesh around Linglong's lips.

It also knocked away Linglong’s sleepiness.

She groaned and woke up in a daze.

The body of a martial arts practitioner is already as hard as an iron wall. This blow naturally woke up Linglong. Thanks to Li Mu's timely use of Qinggong to reduce the force of the blow, Linglong was not painfully hit.

.

But he clearly had reduced his strength, and after Linglong woke up, she still complained of pain.

In fact, in addition to being hit by Li Mu, the bed where her back and neck were resting was also severely hit.

Linglong frowned and turned her head, rubbing the back of her neck.

This rubbing revealed the red marks on her neck.

Li Mu also frowned. At first he thought it was a red mark caused by friction with the fabric, so he took some pain-relieving ointment and knelt down on the bed next to her, brushed away the loose hair around her neck, and gave it

She's on medicine.

As soon as he bent his knees and touched the bed, he realized how the red marks on Linglong's neck were caused.

It turned out that there were some grain peanuts placed under the bed. They were exquisite and tender, so lying on them like this would definitely make them feel uncomfortable.

This was exactly what the maid wanted to report when she first met Li Mu.

The master was delicate, and the maid who served him knew that. He was worried that Linglong would be hurt by something on the bed, but he didn't dare to wake her up, for fear of disturbing her sleep, so he thought of telling Li Mu to let the master decide on his own, but she

Before he could speak, Li Mu took him out.

Seeing Li Mu's behavior, it was obvious that he was worried about waking up the mistress, so the maid didn't say anything more and followed the instructions and went out to wait.

"Is this the bride or some piglet? She ate and slept, and didn't even care about scratching the bed. Look at the red marks on her neck." Li Mu laughed at Linglong while giving her a gentle blow.

The red marks on Linglong's neck were covered with ointment.

The ointment was cold, and when applied to the red mark, the pain dissipated a lot. Linglong squinted her eyes comfortably and muttered: "There is still pain on my back, my back hurts too."

She had long regarded Li Mu as her husband whom she had been married to for many years, and she was not ashamed at all when she said this. On the contrary, it was Li Mu whose face was flushed, and the hand that touched the ointment trembled slightly before squeezing her.

Collar fabric.

Li Mu coughed lightly, trying to hide his nervousness, pinching the fabric at the hem of Linglong's clothes and trying to pull it down.

Before he could pull down his clothes, suddenly, an arrow was shot from the rain curtain outside.

The arrow broke through the window lattice, carrying the rain and chill outside, and shot straight towards the candlelight in the inner room.

Li Mu tightened his grip on Linglong's wrist and looked back suddenly.

One of the dragon and phoenix wedding candles was shot dead by this cold arrow.

Li Mu, who originally had a gentle smile and a blushing face, suddenly looked cold.

Linglong didn't understand what was going on, so she subconsciously squeezed Li Mu's hand.

The next moment, another cold arrow broke through another window lattice from the heavy rain, extinguishing the remaining dragon and phoenix candles.

Two cold arrows were shot from two windows in the inner room. There was no way there was only one person outside.

Linglong had never seen such a scene before, so she was naturally afraid. She held the hand of the person next to her and called him by name in a trembling voice.

"Li Mu..."

Li Mu didn't know how many bloody storms he had gone through. It was just two cold arrows. How could he be frightened in the first place? But now that the person next to him was Shen Linglong, he inevitably had a lot of worries.

If it was just him, it wouldn't matter if he was killed or injured, but Linglong was here, and Li Mu couldn't let her get hurt no matter what.

He pursed his lips and looked at the window lattice where the cold arrow was coming from, hugged Linglong into his arms, and softly comforted: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly raised his hands and waved his sleeves, extinguishing all the remaining candles and lamps in the inner room.

The inner room was completely dark, and Linglong's body trembled violently.

Li Mu hugged her tightly and quickly put her into a closet in the inner room.

His voice was very low, but his speed was very fast.

He told her: "Linglong, you are hiding here. No matter what happens outside, cover your mouth and eyes tightly, don't make a sound, and don't look."

As soon as he finished speaking, he wanted to leave the closet.

But Linglong clenched his fingers tightly.

They couldn't see each other's expressions in the darkness, but Li Mu knew that Linglong at this moment was afraid that he would go into danger alone to protect her.

Time waits for no one, and Li Mu is also afraid that people from outside will break in and bump into Linglong hiding.

He frowned and broke away Linglong's hand.

In a very low voice, he comforted her and said: "Be obedient, Linglong. You can stay here without any worries. I am very skilled in martial arts and nothing will happen to me. If you are by my side, it will make me constrained."

Linglong didn't believe what Li Mu said about his superb martial arts skills, but she knew that her presence would only make Li Mu more constrained.

Li Mu put Linglong in the cabinet, closed the cabinet door while it was dark, took out a long sword, and walked out of the inner room door.

It was raining heavily, and the eaves and walls in all four directions of the courtyard were filled with people. At a glance, there were at least several hundred people.

As soon as Li Mu came out of the inner room, more than ten people came towards him with swords, and the sword blades fell on Li Mu one by one.

Seeing that there were many people on the opposite side, if in the past, relying on Li Mu's Qinggong, one person could escape by himself, although it was a close call, there was still hope of escaping.

But today, Linglong is by his side.

He couldn't use Qinggong to take Linglong away, let alone escape on his own.
