Chapter 43 Backdoor Encounter I don’t know whether Jiang Yu will regret it, but Jun Mo is very regretful. Wei Xu and the others could not resist Jiang Yu's nagging and had to agree to let her explore the evil demon's lair at night, but the prerequisite for their agreement was that Jiang Yu would leave after saving the people and must not say anything more to those evil demons. Jiang Yu himself had nothing to say to those evil demons, so in order to get their consent, he nodded in agreement hurriedly. Because they didn't know where the traitor in the City Lord's Mansion was hiding, in order to avoid alerting the enemy, Jiang Yu and his team did not tell anyone about this operation. Even Wen Ren Huai was unaware of Jiang Yu's actions. The sky darkened quickly and night fell. All the garden landscapes that Jiang Yu had seen in the City Lord's Mansion during the day were now hidden in the darkness. She sneaked to the back door of the City Lord's Mansion, and through the open door, she saw Jun Mo sitting on the ground, eating meat with one hand and drinking with the other, and an old man holding a lamp for him. Perhaps he heard the noise behind him, Jun Mo turned around cautiously, just in time to meet Jiang Yu's pair of surprised eyes. The dim light fell on his pale face, illuminating his mouthful of oil. Jiang Yu: “…” Jun Mo: "..."
With the help of the light, Jun Mo could also see Jiang Yu's attire clearly. He could roughly guess what she was going to do at this time. but…… Jun Mo swallowed the duck meat in his mouth. You say she was unscrupulous and blatant, but she also knew how to go through the back door and changed into black clothes. You say she is low-key and knows how to hide herself. Although she changed into a black dress, it was just a black dress. He looked closely and found that the style was almost the same as the golden one she wore during the day. He looked again and saw the things hanging around her waist, on her head, and tied on her wrists. Although he didn't recognize them, he knew they were rare magical instruments that almost blinded his eyes. "..." The two looked at each other again, speechless. In the end, Jiang Yu was defeated. He stepped over the threshold, closed the wooden door with his backhand, and lowered his head: "Why don't you sleep so late at night and come here for a snack?" Jun Mo was holding a duck leg in one hand and a wine jug in the other. He sat cross-legged on the ground, looking up at her, then lowered his eyes to look at her outfit. He couldn't help but retort, "Why aren't you sleeping so late at night? Are you planning to go shopping?" He threw the duck leg in his hand into the paper bag beside his leg, then gently put down the wine jug, wiped his mouth vigorously, stood up, and revealed the old man who was lighting the lamp for him behind him: "This is Uncle Cheng, the one I mentioned before-" He then turned aside to introduce the girl on the steps to Uncle Cheng: "This is the immortal invited by the city lord. It was them who saved me." Uncle Cheng, who was sitting on the ground behind him, immediately stood up, took a few steps forward, held the lantern, clasped his hands together and bowed to her: "Thank you, Immortal." His lamp had been taking care of Jun Mo just now, and now he was closer to the lamp, so Jiang Yu moved his eyes over and saw him clearly. His temples were already gray, and he was dressed in a scholar's long gown, with an elegant temperament, as if he could go to school and be a teacher at any time. But his complexion did not look good and he looked haggard. Even in the dim light, Jiang Yu could clearly see the dark circles under his eyes. "You're welcome, old man." Jiang Yu smiled, "It's just a small favor." Uncle Cheng seemed a little reserved in front of her. His mind was filled with a lot of famous quotes from sages, articles and classics, but at this moment, he could only smile and couldn't think of what to say. "Uncle Cheng knew I was in the City Lord's Mansion and wanted to come and see me." Jun Mo smiled and took the initiative to explain, "But the City Lord's Mansion doesn't allow anyone to enter during the day, and doesn't allow me to leave, so I thought of sneaking out at night." Of course, if he knew that he would meet Jiang Yu in this state at this time, he would definitely not choose to come out at this time. He pointed at the things under his feet and smiled with his greasy mouth: "This is all made by Uncle Cheng's family. Do you want to try it?"
Jiang Yu immediately shook his head and reminded: "Although it is understandable, I still have to remind you that the City Lord's Mansion is under strict control now. Once discovered, Uncle Cheng will have to stay in the mansion for a while like you." "It's okay." Jun Mo smiled indifferently, "I haven't been discovered yet." "..." Jiang Yu stared at him speechlessly for a moment, "...I'm sorry, are you sure?" There was no way she could pretend she didn't see it. The suspicion on Jun Mo had never been completely cleared, and now this action looked very much like sending information out. Even if she didn't doubt them subjectively, she couldn't just pretend she didn't see it and let them go objectively. "..." The other two understood what she meant. "May I?" After a moment of silence, it was Uncle Cheng who spoke first. He still seemed a little reserved, but he did not express any refusal. "I am willing to come to the mansion to take care of Jun Xiaolang, but I have to ask the immortal to ask someone to inform the family." He himself felt extremely guilty towards Jun Mo. He was injured because he helped him find his daughter. He had asked the guards of the City Lord's Mansion who had explained the situation to him. They said that Jun Xiaolang almost lost his life. If he had not met the immortal invited by the City Lord and was rescued in time, he would probably not be seen by now. "No." Jun Mo frowned and shook his head to refuse. "If Uncle Cheng comes to the City Lord's Mansion, what will happen to Aunt Zhou and Brother Cheng? Won't they be extremely worried?" (End of this chapter)
