Chapter 67

Fang Yi and Mu Jianping were very puzzled!

Since they were captured and confined, apart from being verbally teased by that corrupt official and having their freedom of movement restricted, there had been no further actions.

This was truly strange!

The innocent and carefree young princess might not have noticed, but Fang Yi had seen the dangers of the world and knew that when beautiful women like them fell into the hands of enemies, their fates could be truly tragic!

Of course, she absolutely did not want to experience those inhumane methods that women would suffer!

She was just puzzled, wondering if Lin Sha, that corrupt official, was not as despicable as rumored?

At the same time, she was extremely anxious, wondering why the Mu王府 (Mu Mansion) had not come to rescue them yet?

As a descendant of the Fang family, one of the four major families of the Mu Mansion, she knew all too well about the power of the Mu Mansion, which was a formidable force even the traitor Wu Sangui would find troublesome in Yunnan Province.

With the strength of the Mu Mansion, it would be very easy to find out their whereabouts, as Lin Sha, that corrupt official, had not made much effort to conceal them when he brought them here!

The young princess Mu Jianping, however, had no such worries. She found Lin Sha very interesting!

Yes, interesting!

At first, she was indeed very afraid when she was captured, but later she found that Lin Sha was not vicious. He only restricted her and Yi Sister's freedom and did nothing else, so she gradually relaxed.

Once she relaxed, she realized that Lin Sha was truly an interesting person. He spoke humorously and was not pretentious or overly serious. Although his occasional teasing made her feel very shy, she did not dislike it.

Unlike her brother and master, who only knew how to restrict her actions and made her practice martial arts all day, which was very boring, Lin Sha, that bad guy, seemed to have noticed her boredom and brought her many interesting historical anecdotes to read when she was idle. He also told her some very funny jokes that made her laugh.

The young princess felt incredibly happy and had no desire to be rescued. She even hoped to spend more time with Lin Sha, that bad guy, and at least hear a few more jokes.

This was what troubled Fang Yi the most. Every time she saw the young princess's carefree and happy appearance, she couldn't help but feel a headache: "Princess, you need to understand, we are captives!"

Of course, besides worrying about their own and the young princess's safety, Lin Sha's strength, which he displayed daily, also made her extremely alarmed.

Because he had no military duties and was threatened by the Mu Mansion, and with two beautiful captives at home, Lin Sha decided to stay indoors and focus on practicing internal martial arts.

Considering that in this era, whether in the martial world or on the battlefield, combat was mainly conducted with weapons, and few people fought bare-handed,

he decided to focus his martial arts practice on spear techniques, saber techniques, and staff techniques during this period of seclusion!

Spear techniques, of course, were a very important method of practicing internal martial arts.

Not only did practicing the spear help oneself, but it also greatly benefited the practice of internal martial arts.

Just like Li Shuwen, the famous spear master of the Republican era, who practiced the spear for thirty years and became famous throughout the world, directly entering the ranks of the great masters, all his skills came from his thirty years of persistent practice!

As for saber techniques, there was no choice. A long spear was inconvenient to carry, and one couldn't sleep with it for fear of assassination.

A waist saber was more convenient, placed within reach, and could be drawn immediately in case of an emergency.

Saber techniques were suitable not only for combat in the martial world but also on the battlefield. The Green Dragon Saber and the Guan Saber he practiced, as their names suggested, were related to someone and had considerable power in both single combat and battlefield fighting.

Of course, his energy was limited, so he focused mainly on the spear techniques, and for the saber techniques, he only aimed for proficiency without being too demanding.

The same went for staff techniques. Because he had the right equipment and could practice them quickly, and the seventeen linked spear and staff techniques he practiced had traces of spear techniques, he picked them up very quickly!

Since he had no military duties, he practiced martial arts in the courtyard every day, and Fang Yi, who was paying attention, saw everything.

Hong Quan martial arts, spear techniques, saber techniques, and staff techniques—while the latter two were clearly new, the first two were clearly very powerful!

Especially that martial art she had never seen before, with its fierce and powerful moves, and the loud air bursts from each punch, which only a skilled practitioner with some internal cultivation could produce. But Lin Sha, that corrupt official, clearly did not have internal cultivation?

And that strange and hard-to-defend spear technique, with the spear rod dancing like a snake, striking from all directions, and the sharp spear tip moving like a venomous snake's tongue, each thrust carrying an unimaginable trajectory, and the sharp whistling sound of the spear tip piercing the air making one's scalp tingle and ears ring.

A master, definitely a master!

Fang Yi was shocked to discover that Lin Sha, that corrupt official, was not just strong, but one of the strongest. Even in the entire Mu Mansion, only Iron-Backed Blue Dragon Liu Dahong and Shaking Lion Wu Lishen could match or surpass him, and the rest were no match!

This discovery made her both angry and worried. The Mu Mansion had underestimated Lin Sha, that corrupt official, and did not expect him to be so strong!

At the same time, she was very worried about the possible rescue forces. Lin Sha, that corrupt official, was so powerful that if the rescuers were few, it would be useless. Even if there were enough people, without a master leading them, it would be a problem, and there would definitely be casualties!

She was very anxious and wanted to find a way to send a message, but unfortunately, although Lin Sha, that corrupt official, had not done anything improper to them, he guarded them so strictly that there was no opportunity.

In just two days, due to her anxiety, Fang Yi developed blisters on the corners of her mouth, which made Lin Sha shout in alarm, the young princess cover her mouth in worry, and Fang Yi turn pale in fear, no longer daring to think too much.

...

That evening, after dinner, Lin Sha took a walk in the courtyard and unconsciously came to the door of the room where the two beautiful assassins were confined.

"Adorable little princess, have you missed your big brother Lin?"

Pushing open the slightly ajar door, Lin Sha walked in with a smile.

"Hmph, I haven't missed you, you big bad guy!"

Seeing Lin Sha come in, Mu Jianping's eyes flashed with surprise, and she pouted and turned her head away, her coquettish voice making Lin Sha feel very comfortable.

"Then the adorable little princess doesn't want to hear more stories?"

Lin Sha pretended to be disappointed, sighed, shook his head, and turned to leave.

"Big bad guy!"

Seeing Lin Sha really about to leave, Mu Jianping's eyes welled up with tears.

Fang Yi, watching Lin Sha tease the young princess, was so angry that her phoenix eyes widened and her teeth clenched, hating Lin Sha, that shameless corrupt official, even more...
