Chapter 228 Let’s Forgive the Lord Hat (37)

She thought it over, picked up a dagger from the ground, and put it directly on Chu Xi's neck.

The two guards of Chu Mo who were protecting him with Chu Xi were stunned, not knowing what Lin Mu was going to do.

Lin Mu raised his voice: "Stop! Stop everyone! People from the Shadow Gate stop! Otherwise I will kill Chu Xi!"

The guards stared wide-eyed, almost thinking that Lin Mu was frightened crazy, and killing Chu Xi would not stop the Shadow Gate.

Unexpectedly, the people from the Shadow Gate obediently stopped.

Chu Mo's people also rested again, and the two sides formed a confrontation.

"Let Chu Mo and the others leave." Lin Mu shouted to the masked man.

Seeing that the masked man didn't move, Lin Mu intensified his movements, "Let them go, and let Chu Mo take Zhao Mu back to heal his wounds. Otherwise, I'll kill him, and you will never get the treasure for the rest of your life."

The masked man's eyes were as calm as water, and he said slowly: "I let you go now, and I also get nothing."

Lin Mu had already thought about it: "You let them go, I will stay, with me here, you and Chu Mo can continue to trade."

"Tingyi!" Chu Mo disagreed.

The masked man coughed lightly: "Why bother? You go with him and leave Chu Xi to me."

"Your Majesty is weak now, so leave Chu Xi, I'm afraid we will be killed by you if we can't get out of your Shadow Gate." Lin Mu is not stupid, Chu Xi is now a talisman, and the masked man needs Chu Xi who is alive. Hee.

If it was the personnel status at the beginning, it would still be possible for Chu Mo to fight all the way out of the Shadow Gate.

Now most of his casualties, and the Shadow Gate still has countless killers in reserve, it is impossible for them to leave.

Lin Mu continued to persuade: "Leave me, and you can discuss how to exchange the hostages in a dignified and safe way in the long run, won't you?"

The masked man finally nodded, "Okay, you stay, I'll let them go."

"Tingyi!" Chu Mo disagreed with 1 people.

Lin Mu smiled at him, "Don't worry, I'll be fine."

She walked to the masked man by herself, and in an instant, a sword was placed on her neck.

Although Chu Mo was angry, he was still rational, knowing that he could only leave now and not fight hard, so he took Chu Xi away.

Seeing that they were all gone, Lin Mu heaved a sigh of relief.

The masked man Youyou said: "Why bother? If you had stayed there obediently, we would have exchanged hostages long ago. If we fight hard now, we will still have to exchange hostages in a few days. It's a waste of effort."

"I'm giving you a way out, lord." Lin Mu's last "lord" said very lightly, but the masked man was startled.

He tried to calm down: "What prince? Your prince has already left, and he will come to pick you up in two days."

Lin Mu flicked the long sword on his neck with his hand.

The masked man waved his hand, motioning for the man to put down the sword.

Lin Mu approached and whispered to the masked man, "Prince Qi, you know what I mean. Why keep pretending?"

The masked man took Lin Mu to the side room and pushed everyone away, "How did you find out?"

"You are really good at disguising." Lin Muxian expressed his appreciation for the disguise skills of the masked man or King Qi, "You are completely different from the Prince Qi that the world says, there is no such thing as gentleness, courtesy, and compassion in you. King Qi is brilliant in writing, but his martial arts are not good, you can even say that he has no martial arts, but you are a first-class master in martial arts."

"However, there are many flaws in the Shadow Gate." She sat down and looked at King Qi's mask, "My lord, you and the Shadow Gate mask were prepared before I came here. You never wore masks before."

"That's right." King Qi took off his mask, revealing his original face: "This mask is really uncomfortable to wear, and my face is full of sweat."

"After I successfully attacked the maid who brought me food, I took off her mask. The skin color under her mask was a bit dark, which was exactly the same as the skin color on her neck." Lin Mu explained, "If the people in the Shadow Gate really wear If you wear a mask, the skin color of the covered part of the face should be obviously whiter than the part of the neck that is exposed to the wind and sun every day."

"Observe carefully, you are very smart." King Qi praised sincerely.

Lin Mu nodded, and accepted King Qi's compliment, "You put on the mask temporarily because you don't want me to see your face, and you let everyone in the Shadow Gate put on masks because you don't want me to be suspicious of the mask. Disguise this as the rules of your Shadow Gate."

King Qi nodded: "Well, I admit, it is indeed the case."

"Also, when you first met me, you talked too much. It seemed that you deliberately revealed your identity to me. And today's bloody battle, why are you protecting your mask? You have already told me your identity Now, I will always tell Chu Mo about your identity when I go back. I can only explain that what you told me is a false identity, and you don’t want Chu Mo to find out your real identity." This is what Lin Mu asked Chu Mo to do today. The reason for uncovering King Qi's mask is that she is testing King Qi.

"Then maybe I just don't want Chu Mo to see my face. Maybe I'm someone else, so why do I have to be King Qi?" King Qi asked curiously.

"You don't want to hurt Chu Mo. I found out the first time we talked, and today you are desperate to protect the mask because you don't want to hurt Chu Mo." Lin Mu said here, feeling depressed, "Chu Mo's life , the only people who don’t want to hurt him are his mother and King Qi whom he treats as his father.”

"Perhaps." King Qi sighed slightly, trying to exhale the turbid air in his chest, but he couldn't. "I have no children, and the only one who has taught me is Chu Mo."

"I'm sorry for him already, and I don't want to hurt him anymore." His thoughts drifted back to decades ago, "I saved him, I helped him, I taught him, and I did it to support him to seize the throne. I made him hate Chen Chen Emperor, in fact, I also successfully used his hatred to kill Emperor Chen."

"Let?" Lin Mu keenly grasped the word.

King Qi felt that he had lost his word, so he simply continued, "His tragedy was caused by me alone. I lost the throne, and I hate Emperor Chen. Emperor Chen loves Concubine Yu with all his heart, so I just want to separate them. Emperor Chen, provoked his relationship with Concubine Yu, so he drugged him. That night, he took Chu Mo's mother as Concubine Yu. Concubine Yu did make a fuss with him because of this, and ignored him. But he has been I mistakenly thought it was Chu Mo's mother who gave him the medicine, so I never waited to see Chu Mo and his mother. I even made Emperor Chen mistakenly think that Chu Mo was not his son. I contributed to Chu Mo's suffering in those years. "

"That's not it." Lin Mu looked straight into King Qi's eyes, "Prince Qi, do you hate Emperor Chen because you lost the throne, or do you hate Emperor Chen because you lost Concubine Yu?"

King Qi moved back unconsciously, "What do you mean?"

Lin Mu withdrew his gaze, "Prince Qi, let me tell you a story. Once upon a time, there were two princes, and they both fell in love with the most beautiful girl in Shangjing, Luan Yu. They competed for the throne, and they were fighting for the throne, and it was also Luan Yu."
