The ancestor is here, she is here with space

Chapter 249 Why are you here?

"I heard that Master Mo appeared in a dilapidated temple outside the city a few days ago. My men happened to have met Master Mo once before, so I told them that I will wait for you in the dilapidated temple tomorrow night."

When Zheng Qianzhi and Huo Wan'er heard the news about Hero Mo, a glimmer of hope ignited in their hearts.

However, they knew very well that it would be difficult for them to escape safely from the encirclement with just the two of them, let alone rescue Huo Xiongcai.

So, Zheng Qianzhi decided to go to the ruined temple in person to seek help from the hero Mo, while Huo Wan'er stayed in the secret room and was protected by Uncle Chen.

On the second night, Zheng Qianzhi changed into night clothes and quietly left the secret room.

The dilapidated temple outside the city looked particularly desolate under the moonlight, but Zheng Qianzhi's heart was full of anticipation.

When he stepped into the dilapidated temple, he saw a burly, stern-faced middle-aged man with his eyes closed, resting. It was the legendary hero Mo.

"Mr. Mo, my name is Zheng Qianzhi, and I have an important request for you." Zheng Qianzhi bowed respectfully.

Hero Mo opened his eyes, looking at Zheng Qianzhi with a sharp gaze: "Are you the son of old man Zheng?"

Zheng Qianzhi nodded quickly and gave a brief account of what happened.

"I have heard a little about this matter, but you should know that although I am a man of the martial arts world, I will not easily get involved in court disputes."

As soon as Hero Mo finished speaking, Zheng Qianzhi's heart tightened, but he also understood Hero Mo's concerns.

Then he spoke slowly, his voice more earnestly: "Master Mo, I will not let you get involved in the court disputes. I just need Master Mo to provide me with a little help."

"Help?" Hero Mo raised his eyebrows slightly, with a hint of curiosity and scrutiny in his eyes. He gently stroked the hilt of the sword at his waist and said slowly: "Tell me about it. If it does not violate my principles, I may consider it."

"I just need Mr. Mo to provide ..."

Before Zheng Qianzhi could finish his words, there was a burst of hurried footsteps outside the ruined temple...

Zheng Qianzhi and Mo Daxia looked at each other and saw vigilance and alertness in each other's eyes.

Hero Mo moved and arrived at the entrance of the ruined temple, holding the hilt of the sword lightly in his right hand, ready to deal with any unexpected situation at any time.

The moonlight was obscured by dark clouds, and the night became even darker. Outside the ruined temple, there were faint lights of fire and shadows of people. It was obvious that a group of people were approaching this side.

Zheng Qianzhi's heart sank, thinking to himself that something was not good. Although he knew that this trip was dangerous, he did not expect to be discovered so quickly.

"Master Mo, it looks like we are surrounded." Zheng Qianzhi lowered his voice, pressed close to the wall, trying not to become a target.

Hero Mo sneered, his voice low and powerful: "Just a few ruffians, not worth mentioning."

After saying that, he suddenly jumped up and rushed towards the crowd outside the temple like a cheetah in the dark night.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Hero Mo came out of the ruined temple, he was covered by a huge net. The net was shrinking at an extremely fast speed, and it was obvious that he was well prepared.

Hero Mo's reaction was also extremely fast. He drew out his sword in an instant, and with the surging of his internal strength, he tried to break free from the binding net.

However, this net seemed to be made of special material and was extremely tough, so Hero Mo was unable to break free for a while.

Zheng Qianzhi was shocked, and quickly drew a short blade from his waist. He looked around vigilantly, looking for a possible way to escape.

He caught a glimpse of a half-open window in the corner of the dilapidated temple, with the moonlight shining through it, as if it was the only way out in the night.

He took a deep breath, and rushed towards the window like lightning.

Just as he was about to touch the window frame, a gust of wind came from behind. Zheng Qianzhi twisted his body and narrowly avoided the cold arrow from behind. At the same time, he swung the short blade, cut the spider web beside the window, and jumped out.

Behind him were the footsteps and shouts of the pursuers. Zheng Qianzhi's heart was beating like a drum, but he became calmer.

He took advantage of the cover of night and quickly moved through the forest, trying to get rid of his pursuers.

However, the flames around him grew larger and larger, and the shouts of the yamen runners and the sound of horses' hooves intertwined into an impenetrable net that surrounded him tightly.

Zheng Qianzhi was extremely anxious, but he remained calm on the surface.

He knew that at this moment, any panic would only put him in a more dangerous situation.

At this moment, a turbulent river suddenly appeared in front of them, and the river water was shining with a cold light under the moonlight.

Zheng Qianzhi jumped into the river without any hesitation.

The icy cold river water instantly submerged him, and the rapid flow made it almost impossible for him to breathe.

However, Zheng Qianzhi relied on his extraordinary willpower and swimming skills to persist in the water.

He swam along with the current, and only dared to surface to breathe when he felt the sounds of his pursuers gradually fade away.

There was a dense reed marsh on the river bank. Zheng Qianzhi swam over carefully and hid among the reeds.

He was soaked and shivering with cold, but he felt indescribable relief and excitement in his heart - he had successfully escaped the pursuers!

Just then, a sound of light footsteps suddenly came from outside the reed marsh.

Zheng Qianzhi's heart tightened and he immediately tightened the short blade in his hand vigilantly.

However, when the man's face appeared in the moonlight, Zheng Qianzhi was stunned - the person turned out to be Lin Congyun!

"Madam, why are you here?" Zheng Qianzhi asked in surprise.

Lin Congyun glanced at Zheng Qianzhi, who was soaking wet, and a hint of praise flashed in his eyes: "Boy, not bad, you can actually escape from those yamen runners."

"Madam, please stop teasing me." Zheng Qianzhi smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Lin Congyun took out a porcelain bottle from his arms and threw it to Zheng Qianzhi, "This is a golden wound medicine, treat the wound yourself."

"Thank you, old madam." Zheng Qianzhi said gratefully.

The reason why Lin Congyun appeared here was because today she went to deal with the villagers of Nanyuan Village who were captured by Huo Xiongcai.

Because Lin Congyun did not use the identity of the second prince when he went out, and he was accompanied by the two brothers of the Bai family. When he found the villagers of Nanyuan Village, he discovered that they were doing hard labor in a mine, and each of them was beaten and covered with bruises.

Lin Congyun directly took out the documents that Fang Deyong had prepared, rescued all the villagers, and took out medicine and spiritual spring water to treat the villagers' injuries.

Then he asked the two brothers of the Bai family to find a few horse-drawn carriages and send all the villagers back to the deep forest.

Originally, Lin Congyun also wanted to go back with them, but thinking that the round trip would take several days and would be too time-consuming, he decided to let the Bai brothers send the villagers back while he would go back to the city first.

But I didn’t expect to meet Zheng Qianzhi on the way back.

"You said that you were being chased by the yamen runners of Bianyun Pass. Why did they arrest you?" Lin Congyun knew very well why Zheng Qianzhi was arrested. The reason he asked this was to see if he would tell the truth.

Zheng Qianzhi sighed and told Lin Congyun the whole story.
