Chapter 165: Betrayal of Hue

Li Mu knows Duan Xing, the two have been friends for many years, and they are very familiar with each other's temperament and temperament, although he is a little informal and arrogant in doing things in ordinary times, but when it comes to the critical moment, he will be much more serious, and his attitude is different from usual. It's like now, his face is full of strictness, and his tone is also very serious, thinking about it is an important matter, but he still doesn't quite understand, what does this matter have to do with that Miss Qin San!

Li Mu smiled bitterly, "Brother, no one knows better than you know the beginning and end of my acquaintance with this third young lady, and you still ask me." ”

Duan Xing thought about it for a while, when Li Mu saw Qin Dai's heart being tied up, he didn't come to the rescue, so this incident left a knot in his heart, and after learning that the third lady had returned safely, he was a little curious, so he took the liberty to go to the Qin Mansion and meet the talented and beautiful Miss Qin San.

In this way, the two do not have a deep relationship, but they are just because of a "coincidence" word.

It's all to blame on him, he was curious to die at the time, and he wanted to go along, which led to what happened later.

Li Mu looked at Duan Xing, who couldn't help shaking his head and sighing, and said jokingly: "Brother, this is not like you!" Don't you often say that when the sky falls, you stand on top of it? What's going on now? ”

Duan Xing sighed, "Brother, I'm afraid that I'll be in trouble this time, and I'm sorry for the third lady." ”

Li Mu pursed his lips without a trace and asked, "Why." ”

Duan Xing said: "Do you remember when we went to the Qin Mansion on the eighth day of the first lunar month?" ”

"It's not long away, little brother, I also have a good memory, so I naturally remember."

Duan Xing was silent for a while, and then said, "I shouldn't have gone with you that time, maybe things won't be so complicated now." ”

Li Mu poured Duan Xing a glass of wine, "Brother, don't worry, if there is something we can solve slowly, you said that you can't live with the third lady." Why? You must know that you and her were just one side of the relationship, and you didn't even say half a word! "What would two people with completely different identities and backgrounds get together?

Duan Xing said again: "Life should be a masterpiece, and death should also be a ghost." If I hadn't wanted to meet a talented woman like her, why would I have pulled out so many things! He glanced at Li Mu and asked, "Do you remember when the third lady said that she had been asleep for seven days and did not wake up?" ”

Li Mudao: "I remember, but she didn't say it herself, it was her sister who said it." Thinking of the scene that day, Li Mu couldn't help frowning again, he didn't have a good impression of that fourth lady at all.

"Yes. It was her sister who said it, it doesn't matter who said it, what matters is the matter of sleeping for seven days! ”

"What's wrong?"

Duan Xing let out a long sigh. "You're not from the rivers and lakes, no wonder you don't know. When I heard about her, I immediately thought about it. ”

Then Duan Xing started with a legend on the rivers and lakes.

Legend has it that in the deep mountains of Lingbei, there is a kind of fruit that is red and hot like the sun. It is called Chiyang Fruit, this fruit is extremely rare, it grows between the cliffs, in the abyss, it absorbs the essence of the sun and the moon, and the aura of all things. It takes 30 years to bear fruit once, and this red yang fruit can repair people's damaged meridians and adjust people's internal organs. It can increase people's internal strength, and if a seriously injured person eats it, he can save his life, not to mention, but also restore his previous strength. The most important thing is that this red yang fruit can cure all kinds of poisons in the world. It's a panacea.

It's just that this red yang fruit is not only rare, but it also costs a lot to get it. This fruit does not only grow in places that are rarely visited. And it must be guarded by poisonous substances nearby! If you underestimate these poisons, you may die, because these poisons are not ordinary mountain snakes, rats and ants, but rare species with mutated varieties, and some poisons can even be called old monsters, because they not only live longer than people, but also have intelligence, that is to say, they have thoughts and can think! Therefore, it is simply impossible to obtain this red yang fruit from them, which proves the preciousness of the red yang fruit from the other side.

The effect of red yang fruit is magical, and it is not easy to come by, so it is even more precious. So it's simply a treasure that martial arts people flock to!

Duan Xing stopped talking about this rumor of the rivers and lakes, and took a sip of wine with his head down.

Li Mudao: "What does this have to do with the third lady of the Qin family, the two are fundamentally incompatible." ”

"Brother Xian doesn't know, if this red yang fruit is eaten by people who are healthy and don't know martial arts, it is not appropriate. Although there is no harm, because the effect of the fruit is so strong, it cannot be absorbed for a while, and he has to sleep for a few days until the essence of the fruit is absorbed, and then the person can wake up. Duan Xing said: "During this period, although the person who takes this red yang fruit does not eat or drink, he is full of energy, and the essence is absorbed by the human body, which increases the person's physique and strength, in other words, as long as the person who does not know martial arts absorbs the essence of this fruit, he will also enter the ranks of martial arts masters." ”

Li Mu seemed to understand a little, and asked, "If you can't absorb this essence, what should you do?" You won't sleep forever! ”

Duan Xing shook his head, "It will die violently." ”

Li Mu pondered for a moment, "Brother Duan suspects that the third young lady got a chance and ate the Chiyang fruit?" ”

"Not a doubt, it's a certainty."

Li Mu was taken aback, "How dare you be sure." ”

Duan Xing said: "I was only suspicious, and I didn't dare to be sure. But I thought about the events of that day, and there was one detail that made me think that she must have eaten red yang fruit. ”

Li Mu is not surprised, Duan Xing has always been a person with thick and thin.

"Looks like I overlooked something that day."

Duan Xing nodded, "I remember very clearly, before that little guy came to take away the eldest son of the Qin family that day, the third lady glanced at the west intentionally or unintentionally, and after a while, the little guy came, and it came from the west path." I think she must have eaten the red yang fruit and absorbed its essence, so even if she didn't know kung fu, she became deaf and sensual, so she must have heard the footsteps of the little guy. Duan Xing said solemnly: "I believe that this qiē is by no means my guess. ”

Li Mu nodded, "This is also her chance, it's a good thing!" ”

Duan Xing hung his head and said dejectedly: "It was originally a good thing, but it made me unintentionally a bad thing." ”

Duan Xing picked up a glass of wine and drank it all. "Brother, I'll just say it! The last time a few gang gatherings, I was too drunk and said this unintentionally, that third lady, I'm afraid there will be trouble in the future......" The last sentence, he said very quietly.

Li Mu raised his eyebrows, drunk too much? He knew the amount of alcohol this brother drank, how could he drink too much after a few cups of yellow soup. Brother Duan and he are friends of life and death, since he doesn't say it, he can't say it when he thinks about it.

"What do you mean, brother?" Since Duan Xing brought him here, he must have hoped that he would help, and it was rare for him to speak, of course he was obliged.

Duan Xing scratched his head, embarrassed to speak, "Brother, I think so. You see that these three young ladies are not from the martial arts, but she has the treasure that everyone in the martial arts wants, and the news has been spread, can she still live in peace? It's for my brother to involve her, but I didn't mean to, you know me, although I also want to get this Chiyang Fruit, I will never do anything about it, but those gangs are not necessarily, so they will definitely try their best to find the third lady and ask about the origin of the Chiyang Fruit. I'm afraid that the third lady will not stop talking about it in the future, and I am afraid that her life will be in danger, so I really have no choice, so I thought of you, brother. ”

Li Mu suddenly had a bad premonition, "Let's get to the point." ”

Duan Xing didn't expect Li Mu to be so direct, and he couldn't find any other way to solve the problem for a while, so he had to say bluntly: "I want you to approach her and protect her until I solve the problem behind, and then ......" The more he spoke, the lower his voice became, until the end he was a little afraid to look at Li Mu's eyes. Although they are brothers, they can let their own brothers sell their hue, which is too inauthentic.

Li Mu suddenly understood, Duan Xing wanted to sell himself to pay off his debts!

"Well, brother, let me ask, do you really have to solve this problem?"

Duan Xing saw Li Mu's stern face, so he also put aside Fang Cai's nonsense, and asked with the same straight face: "What do you mean?" ”

Li Mudao: "Brother Duan, I am a businessman and like to study people's hearts, tell me, how many people were present when you talked about it that day, what was their identity and status, and would they publicize the matter of the third young lady?" ”

Duan Xing understood, Li Mu was helping him analyze the relationship!

Duan Xing thought about it carefully, "There were only five people present at the time, in addition to me, there was also Jiang Rui, the deputy gang leader of the Jinsha Gang, and Yanbei, the gang leader of the Zhenwei Gang, was also there, and then there was Meng Qiru, the gang leader of the Xiaofeng Pavilion, and he also brought a young man and said that it was his righteous son, just these few people. ”

Li Mu asked again, "Do you know all of them?" What is the temperament of these people? ”

"This Jin Shao Gang and Zhenwei Gang are old friends of our Qing Gang, our three gangs have no conflict of interest, and they have always gotten along well, especially the Jinsha Gang, their deputy gang leader Jiang Rui once saved my life, he is a good brother, and he is very angry. Although Zhang Yanbei is a little arrogant, he is quite upright, this person is good at writing and ink, and he can be described as both civil and military. Only that Meng Qiru I don't know very well, he is older than us, and he hasn't had much contact, so he doesn't dare to jump to conclusions, there are a lot of rumors about him on the rivers and lakes, saying that this person is very temperamental, a spear dances like a long dragon, and he is very domineering. I don't even remember the name of the righteous son he brought, and this man is still wearing a mask, so he can't see the image clearly, and the mystery is mysterious, let alone understood. ”

Li Mu nodded, and asked again: "Brother, do you think they will spread this news to the rivers and lakes!" ”

Duan Xing thought for a moment, waved his big hand and said, "Impossible." ”

ps:

Uh, I've been really slacking off lately, my mother-in-law is sick, and one old and one young need to be forgiven and taken care of, so the work is inevitably a little flawed, everyone's forgiveness! Try to keep it up every day!
