Clouds and Moon Shadow

Chapter 97 Explosion

Stepping out of the tent and looking at the bright sunlight, Gu Qingyue felt a little dizzy.

His body swayed slightly, but a large hand reached out from the side and caught him.

"Mu Nan," Gu Qingyue steadied herself and turned around to meet Mu Nan's worried gaze.

"What exactly happened? How did Captain Mu get so badly injured?"

Mu Nan pursed his lips and remained silent. Gu Qingyue waited a moment before speaking, "I was just expressing my concern, I have no ulterior motives. It's okay if you don't want to say."

After saying that, Gu Qingyue lifted her backpack up and prepared to return to her small tent; she desperately needed to rest.

"No, it's because... I don't know either," Mu Nan said, unable to withstand Gu Qingyue's gaze as she turned to him.

"It's true, my master sent me on another mission last night. He took some men to Yuding Pass to gather information. As for what happened, I really don't know."

Mu Nan looked helpless.

"I understand. Your master should wake up in two hours. Go and take care of him."

After saying that, Gu Qingyue quickly left.

A strange emotion gradually filled her chest, a dull, sour feeling, and a little uncomfortable. When she first went in and saw Mu Yun Chu lying there silently, she suddenly felt inexplicably panicked and uneasy.

She didn't know what was wrong with her, so after suppressing her emotions to save people and settle them down, she desperately needed a quiet place to calm herself down.

She couldn't let these uncontrollable emotions affect her.

Mu Nan stared at Gu Qingyue's departing figure, his feelings complicated.

three days later.

Gu Qingyue stepped out of her tent early in the morning, intending to go to the medicine room to check on Mu Yun Chu's medicine, when she was shocked by the sea of ​​people at the martial arts arena in the distance.

No wonder it was so noisy outside so early in the morning; it turns out everyone had gathered at the martial arts training ground.

Judging by the number of people gathered, there must be at least a thousand. Is something important happening?

Has war broken out?

Gu Qingyue's heart jumped into her throat.

Just as I was about to lift my foot to take a look, a voice called out to me.

"Light Moon".

Mu Yun Chu, leaning on a cane, stood not far away, while Mu Nan supported his other arm. The two looked serious.

Seeing this, Gu Qingyue stopped in her tracks.

Why didn't you follow the doctor's orders? Why did you get out of bed so soon and come out into the wind?

Gu Qingyue suppressed her sudden surge of anger. She didn't know why, but seeing Mu Yun Chu like this made her heart skip a beat. She couldn't suppress her anger, and her emotions suddenly hovered on the verge of exploding.

She knew how weak Mu Yun Chu's body was. Although she had healed the wound in time, the blood loss was too much to be replenished in a short time. This person was simply courting death.

Seeing Gu Qingyue suddenly get angry, Mu Yun Chu was stunned for a moment, almost unable to believe his eyes.

This woman has this side to her?

It's so vivid and adorable!

Mu Nan, who was watching from the side, also twitched his lips. This kid really thinks he's something special, daring to yell at his master.

Mu Yun Chu looked at the approaching girl and suddenly smiled.

Although she was still wearing boy's clothes, had her hair styled like a boy's, and had deliberately darkened her face, her excessively bright eyes still made his heart tremble slightly.

"Bright and beautiful beyond compare!" That was all he could think of at that moment.

Upon seeing his master's 'horrified' smile, Mu Nan wanted to run for his life.

He had never seen his master laugh so—so 'happy'? So 'radiant'?

And it was directed at a man.

Is knowing this secret enough to warrant being silenced?

Is it too late to run now?

Just as Mu Nan was feeling apprehensive, Gu Qingyue had already walked up to the two of them.

"Go back now! Captain Mu, don't blame me for not reminding you, I have many methods for dealing with disobedient patients," Gu Qingyue said, hands on her hips. Looking at Mu Yun Chu's indifferent expression, she thought she might as well really lose her temper.

This man, really!

"Okay, I'll go back now."

Just as Gu Qingyue was about to list a thousand ways to punish him, he suddenly spoke up.

This made Gu Qingyue feel like she had punched cotton, making her instantly feel like a bad person, while the man in front of her looked like a wronged little white rabbit. It was really weird!

Meanwhile, Mu Nan, who was standing next to him, was on the verge of fainting.

He thought he needed to lie on the ground and quickly plan for his next life. Did his master have to be so...so...scary?

When has his master ever spoken so gently? He suspects his master might have been switched at birth!

Thinking of this, his eyes kept looking at Mu Yun Chu.

"what happened?"

The indifferent tone came over, and Mu Nan was startled. He immediately felt refreshed and relieved. This was how his master should act. He was so scared!

"It's nothing, it's just... today is the day for the selection of centurions for each battalion. Are you really not going to go and take a look?" Mu Nan asked cautiously.

Seeing the strange behavior and ambiguous expressions between the master and servant, Gu Qingyue was secretly puzzled.

But she wisely refrained from asking, only asking that the patient go back and rest properly.

Upon hearing this, Mu Yun Chu glanced at Gu Qing Yue and said, "My wound hurts, I can't go. You go and get the medicine."

After saying that, he gestured for Mu Nan to leave quickly.

Mu Nan looked at his master suspiciously. Hadn't Gu Qingyue been bringing the medicine these past two days? Why was he being asked to do it today?

Seeing that Mu Nan didn't move, Mu Yun Chu raised her eyebrows slightly.

Mu Nan snapped out of his daze and quickly ran off.

Mu Yun Chu watched Mu Nan run away, then turned and walked towards the camp. After taking two steps, she turned back and looked at Gu Qing Yue, who remained unmoved, and said, "Let's go."

Gu Qingyue was even more confused and remained standing still. Wasn't she able to walk on her own with the cane? Why was she told that something was wrong?

"what's up?"

Just as he asked the question, he saw Mu Yun Chu stumble.

Gu Qingyue, with great tact, flew to Mu Yun Chu's side and reached out to support his arm.

"Are you alright?" Gu Qingyue asked with concern.

"fine".

Feeling those delicate hands supporting her arm, Mu Yun Chu lowered her head, a hint of a smile flashing in her eyes.

Gu Qingyue very responsibly helped Mu Yun Chu into the tent. What should have been a half-minute walk took her more than a quarter of an hour.

In Mu Yun Chu's words, the more he walked, the more his wound hurt, but he would persevere because there were several times along the way when Gu Qing Yue really wanted to find someone to carry him, because it was just too slow!

With Gu Qingyue's help, Mu Yun Chu sat on the couch. Gu Qingyue looked up and was shocked. Mu Yun Chu's face was pale and she was covered in cold sweat. She wasn't this bad when they met outside the tent.

She quickly placed her hand on his wrist.

Gu Qingyue lowered her head in deep thought, carefully sensing the situation.

Mu Yun Chu lowered her head and quietly looked at the girl's profile, her eyes filled with a gentle tenderness she herself didn't realize.

At this moment, Mu Nan stood dumbfounded at the entrance of the tent, unsure whether to go in or back. He felt the medicine in his hand was too hot and wanted to throw it away.

Upon seeing his master's gaze, he felt even more inclined to throw himself away as well.

What went wrong?

What is this, Master?

How could that be?

Should he whisper something in his ear? The master is about to go astray!

Although he had seen some men with homosexual tendencies, he did not want his master to be like that!

How will he explain this to the Second Master? How will he explain this to...that person?

"Master!" Mu Nan mustered his courage, called out, and walked into the tent.

As he wished, he received a chilling, dagger-like glare from Mu Yun Chu.

Mu Nan could not withstand the attack and died.

With trembling legs, Mu Nan quietly placed the medicine bowl on the small table beside the couch, then awkwardly stood aside, motionless.

In a short while, I felt as if I were being stabbed by countless flying knives, and I died countless times.

I still refused to move.

"Go check on the centurion selection process for me and write a report for me tonight."

"Don't move, subordinate," Mu Yun Chu said indifferently.

Unable to withstand the blow, Mu Nan's legs gave way and he died.
